How noble . . . Staffer Stephen Prager at Common Dreams writes about the elimination of on-college campuses voting. It is interesting as many adults would criticize young people for not voting. Now the adults in the room made it harder to vote as many students do not have vehicles. Busses were provided by one […]
Why is it that one person can escape all prosecution because of who he or she knows, who they are, or what he or she does? I would not get the same treatment as they. Neither would you. I am not the president, a congressman, senator. Just a citizen who demands his rights in spite […]
“Henry VIII dissolved monasteries and executed wives because the machinery of monarchy allowed it, and challenging him risked the entire structure. The Romanovs died because saving them threatened coalitions that mattered more than five lives in a basement. Kennedy’s death formalized distance because proximity had become a procedural risk. And Sarajevo exploded not because of […]

Maybe it was because people did not like Hillary Clinton. But the comparison between the two candidates’ hands down favored Clinton in ability, judgement, and understanding Americas’ needs.

How many euphemisms are there for TACO? “Carve-out.” “Step-backs.” “Exclusions.” “Price relief.” “Rollback.” How about “advancing to the rear?” Trump’s tariffs are turning out to be fairy tales told to children. Trump wrote that his tariffs are unleashing “an American economic miracle, and we are quickly building the greatest economy in the history of the […]
No, it is not a mistake by putting the title at the head of this post (above) and a second time below. I did not want the AB readers to think I was writing this commentary about January CPI results. This report belongs solely to New Deal democrat. Oh, I did write or report on […]
King Cnut (Canute) famously ordered the incoming tide to stop. It was an exercise in futility (to be fair, Cnut knew this and staged the event to prove that his royal power was worthless compared to the power of God). Donald Trump is the modern King Cnut, pretending to order away climate change. Trump, however, […]
CPI Report with just the facts being reported. Another report after the CPI Report. Gap in spending growth between higher-income households and all others was at its largest since mid-2022 . . .
