Joyce Vance touches upon a scary topic. The government under Tr__p’s tutelage over our lives is taking a turn for the worst. Not happy with being a president governing a nation, his government is in the process of rounding up people that may not fit the classification of being citizens. Intermingled with them are children […]
I am traveling the next couple of days so I am limited as to what I can write. I thought Letters from and American and some words from Paul Krugman would suffice. I subscribe to both. It appears that every day going by, we can expect something else emerging from the basement of the White […]
This crap is beginning to grate on me. If it is not bothering you, then there is something wrong with your thinking. Tr__p is an elected official and not a king ruling by divine right. Tr__p is feeling pretty damn secure to imply such in public. No legitimate American wants a dictator “August 26, 2025” […]
Guess what 13 of the 20 U.S. cities with the highest murder rates were in Republican-run states. Sending in an untrained National Guard. They were not trained for controlling crowds of civilians. At Camp Lejeune in 1970, they were training us and had established mock cities to train in for practice. Pres. Trump says (in a […]
As is typical, Republicans support Tr__p and Dems and Independents see less in Tr__p to support, Overall job approval comes in at 40%. If one believes that is low, I believe it will be even lower in the future as Tr__p continues to play with on and off and changing tariff rates. The masked law […]

Looking at crime in Washington D.C. as compared to similar, smaller, and larger cities. Washington D.C. is no worse than other cities and is better than most. Looking at all crime and homicides. If you go to the site Council on Criminal Justice, you can take a deeper dive. I chose five cities to review […]
Be Careful What You Wish For. More stories by the Tr__p administration in an effort to distract from himself, his administration and Republicans. WASHINGTON – Total violent crime for 2024 in the District of Columbia is down 35% from 2023 and is the lowest it has been in over 30 years, according to data collected […]
Having lived near Ann Arbor, I know of University of Michigan, History Prof. Juan Cole. WE did exchange a few emails in the past. I was looking to talk with him and perhaps write about him in Angry Bear. It never came to pass. He is a trustworthy source of information if you are looking […]
Washington D. C. Mayor Muriel Bowser: “While this action today is unsettling and unprecedented, I can’t say that given some of the rhetoric of the past, that we’re totally surprised. I can say to D.C. residents that we will continue to operate our government in a way that makes you proud.” Fact checking Tr__P’s claim […]
