Chuckie Pinocchio
Well, we always knew we could trust Chuck Schumer, right? Sorta reminds me of a book I once saw when I was younger, an anti-Communism screed named “You Can Trust the Russians” (whose subtitle was something like “to do what they always do whether you like it or not!” Have never seen another copy since.) […]
Russia getting froggie outside the war zone?
No doubt you’ve seen the stories that Russia wished Ukraine a Merry Christmas by trying to take down Ukraine’s power grid. Well, the two of them are fighting, so one could say that this is a semi-legitimate target in time of war, right? But there are also indications that Russia is expanding its operations to […]
Ethics group calls out ethically suspect pols
Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas! Back to those paragons of virtue… our legislators. FACT, the Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust, released their annual ethics report – and it ain’t purty. And before you go excoriating just those damn Democrats… remember that Clarence Thomas, the Supreme Justice apparently blind to the optics of HIS […]

Who remembers?
Many won’t. Remember what? Saturday errands, check the antifreeze, go to that Christmas sale? No, something a long sight more significant. Eighty-three years ago the United States was attacked at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. 2403 killed. 1178 additional wounded. Wiki 353 Japanese aircraft launched in two waves from 6 carriers lurking below the horizon. We […]
Navy Vet Earl Holliman, 96, dead
I wonder what the most common excuses for not serving are? “I wanted to enlist in high school, but my parents wouldn’t sign for me” has to be one of the most common. (A valued friend who died last year was at least honest – “I thought about going in but wound up getting into […]
AI General Love Scam
The latest ‘thing’ is to AI-generate a military general (or colonel… ah, what’s the diff?) and troll the internet for ladies (or guys) looking for love in all the wrong places. Single bars and good time lovers were never true. Playing a fool’s game, hoping to win. And telling those sweet lies and losing again… […]
Fired FEMA employee says FEMA’s story wrong
Ah, yes, the FEMA supervisor who told employees in Florida to skip Trump-signaged yards. Was quite an uproar after Hurricane Milton over this. FEMA basically denied, denied, denied, and claimed this supervisor was an outlier, doing this on her own, not representative of FEMA policy. The supervisor, Marn’i Washington, was fired by FEMA after outrage […]
