The Robinhood Earthquake

Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes

We don’t have enough things on our plates. We needed this. We have a Congress trying to impeach a president who is no longer president.  We have a new president trying to set a world record for executive orders.  We have people calling everybody either racists or white supremacists.  Oh and then there is the […]

How the Kennedys Radically Changed America

Estimated Reading Time: 4 minutes

The Kennedys have for the past 60 years been one of the most idolized families in America. Joseph Kennedy converted his ill-gotten gains from bootlegging into a legal fortune. He then unleashed his sons into the political world. This is when his son John changed America in one way and then his younger brother Teddy […]

We Are Supposed to Pray for Joe Biden

Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes

Joe Biden is now fulfilling his quest that has run for at least 33 years and probably more, of becoming President of the United States. As loyal Americans, we should fall in line and support him as our president. That is going to be difficult. Let me tell you why. His pleas for unity within […]

Biden’s First Act is Economic Insanity

Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes

Everyone wishes success to our incoming President. Unlike the crowd that hated Trump, Republicans will not be sitting with their voodoo dolls sticking pins into them in hopes of Biden falling on his face. As much as I would like to applaud Biden’s $1.9 trillion stimulus plan, it would be an act of economic insanity […]

The End of the Trump Era

Estimated Reading Time: 4 minutes

In 1982 James Q. Wilson and George L. Kelling wrote an article espousing the Broken Windows Theory.  Simply stated, it says if you let small crimes and evidence of such become apparent it will lead to larger and more specific crimes. In effect, it gives people a license to continue on misbehaving as they have […]

Our Election Rules Are A Mess

Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes

Supposedly our election rules are left to the states. The problem is most people seem not to care about anything other than our biennial elections for Congress and the President every four years. Bill de Blasio — the worst mayor in American history — was elected by just 8% of NYC voters. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was […]

The Truth about Polls

Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes

The veracity of the polls done during this last election period has been the subject of much discussion.  There have been assertions that some polls were done to suppress the vote. When a well-known pollster was asked about that, the reply was “There was record voting.” The bigger question is whether the polls are impossible […]

A Feel Good Story to End a Challenging Year

Estimated Reading Time: 3 minutes

The year 2020 most people would love to erase from the calendar. A worldwide pandemic caused shutdowns and premature deaths. Then there was our year-long contentious national election. Let’s end the year with a story that will bring a smile to your face and possibly a tear to your eye. While it recently came to my attention, […]

Forget Voter Fraud – This is Bigger

Estimated Reading Time: 4 minutes

President Trump has spent a lot of time harping on voter fraud.  He may be correct that there were inappropriate actions done by voters and election officials, but he and his team were unable to prove that to our courts to be able to overturn the election. Our election laws will be dealt with in a […]

School Teachers vs. Restaurant Workers

Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes

Two groups that have been spoken about often during the 2020 pandemic have been school teachers and restaurant workers. Though both groups have a large number currently not working, the two groups are dramatically different in how they have been treated by our governments. Let’s take a look at the difference and compare/contrast their realities. […]

“People of Color” is a Brainless Term

Estimated Reading Time: 3 minutes

The Democrats are always coming up with snappy new terms to describe their political antics. “Medicare for All,” “Public Option,” “Democratic Socialism” and “Progressives” are samples of current nomenclature. The terms typically replace a prior term that has failed to capture public acceptance. The press simply follows suit, never questioning the new terms and phrases […]

Are You Surprised They Think You Are Stupid?

Estimated Reading Time: 4 minutes

There is a lot of talk about how we don’t have enough civility in our public discourse. Mr. Biden has called for unity and reaching across the aisle. Many people would like to blame President Trump. Though he adds to this situation, this has been going on for years. Previously, I have delineated that Democrats […]

Lessons from the Election

Estimated Reading Time: 4 minutes

We have now confirmed what it takes for a Democrat to get elected President in this country. There must be either a national crisis or an international pandemic occurring concurrent with the election. In 2008, Barack Obama won because the Republicans’ inept candidate mishandled the reaction to the loan crisis. Without an international pandemic, Joe […]
