Taking a break from today’s casual reading - A Will Rogers Treasury (1983) – to pass on a few semi-random thoughts for the day with more than a little assistance from Mr. Rogers. The first comes from 1927 when Rogers had arranged and performed in benefits for victims of severe Spring flooding of the lower …
Skimming the Totalitarian Playbook…and Connecting a Few Dots
There is much we don’t know yet about the FBI RAID on Trump's residence earlier this week but there is a line through the cloud of data points we do have that seems rather obvious to me. Of course, I am cursed with a long memory for such things and at least an ounce of …

Amplifying Pre-Existing Double Standards of Justice – Team Biden Recklessly Enters Very Dangerous Territory
