Not in the mood for a second fun and expected Saturday morning surprise, huh, America. Fucking le sigh. He must be so happy – sooo happy – now that he’s beyond O.J.: Donald Trump, the Twice Impeached, was acquitted (I know!) of the charge of incitement of insurrection, because obviously. Seven Republicans did join the […]

Dare Greatly, America
The second impeachment of Donald “the Impeached” Trump can go ahead, for a trial is Constitutional. The U.S. Senate voted on it, OK…56-44, with six Republicans growing a spine and joining all 50 members of the Democratic caucus. For the ultimate in white privilege (oh, that’s right…), can you believe there was a debate? That […]
Impeached…Again!
A president so unnice, he had to be impeached twice. Indeed, Donald “the Impeached” Trump has been impeached…again…by the U.S. House of Representatives – this time with a bipartisan majority – on one charge of “incitement of insurrection,” on account of the undeniable role he played in the Jan 6. treasonous (and deadly) siege of […]
Your Zebras, America
Happy New Year. I can see it and yet, I barely believe it: America’s democracy is under siege, by Donald “the Impeached” Trump’s terroristical MAGA Nation, which this morning did as told and took the United States Capitol (like, the heart of Washington, D.C.); at best, to interrupt the certification of the 2020 win of […]

Good thing the novel coronavirus vaccine has made its way stateside. Today, nine-ish months after humanity and the world went into lockdown on account of the global COVID-19 pandemic, and as the United States of America’s death toll passed 301,000, Sandra Lindsay, a critical care nurse in Queens, N.Y., became the first American to be […]
My Two Green Cents
The next election ought to be debated and decided on the environment alone. If it were up to Donald “the Impeached” Trump and his regime (and, fuck, it kinda is…for the moment, anyway – vote), California and the rest of the West Coast might as well burn. Better that way, to repave Paradise and put […]

“U.S.A.” “U.S.A.” U…S…Oy. We are 40 days and 40 nights out from Election Day on Nov. 3, and the one and only (thank goodness) Donald “the Impeached” Trump is still unabashedly signaling and unequivocally on the record saying he does not anticipate a peaceful transfer of power, when he loses the election (again), because basically, […]
San Francisco 7.10.20
To echo what Zac Efron says on the Lima, Peru, ep of Down to Earth with Zac Efron, the muliti-hyphenate’s new Netflix travelogue, the Earth is burning. We know this, we’ve known this. We have seen it, felt it, smelled it. (R.I.P. Lewis). From beneath you it devours, after all. Previously on the pandemic, China’s […]

You know I been Team Amy McGrath. From what little I know about the retired U.S. Marine Corps lieutenant colonel and, say, her vision re: foreign policy and national security (which minces no words where standing up to aggressive foreign powers is concerned, for instance), I think she would be a fine choice to unseat […]
The DREAM Lives
Nice try. Now back it up. Today the Supreme Court of the United States surprised again, after it ruled on another eagerly anticipated decision, one concerning the Barack Obama-era DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) American immigration policy, which since summer 2012 has provided close to 700,000 (known) young DREAMers respite from deportation. Swinging toward […]
