Gun Violence is Inherently Political

No matter how much Republicans want to depoliticize shootings, the reality won’t change. Gun violence is a public issue and must be treated as such. — With the recent shooting in Uvalde and the criticism of the police response, the nation once again faces a reckoning over the nation’s gun laws. The pain and loss that comes with the death of 21 people inevitably provoke demands for action, but with those calls for change comes another…

Conservative Author Can’t Define What Woke Means

She had a bit of a brain fart — In these strange and absurd times, partisans label their political opponents with plenty of vague and ill-defined terms. Many of these terms, dictated by spur-of-the-moment reactions, take on seemingly self-evident meanings without providing any real information about what is described, as is the goal with many of these labels. One…

Prosecuting Trump is More Than Politics; The Law is at Stake

The rule of law must be restored — Trump may face legal charges, The New York Times reported earlier last week. Citing recent a recent decision by prosecutors to invite Trump to testify before a grand jury, the Times warned that the former president would likely face criminal charges for alleged hush payments to porn star Stormy Daniels…

Fox News Hates Its Own Viewers

They think their viewers are stupid. — Fox News has come under a lot of heat as of late. With the increasingly strong case by Dominion Voting Systems against the network, more evidence of their blatant deception about the 2020 election has been exposed, undermining the supposed credibility of America’s most infamous news channel. But even with…

Tucker Carlson’s Lies about 2020 Come Back to Haunt Him

It is about time — It never ends, does it? Three years later, the fight to claim some fraudulent election in 2020 still rages on, even as it flies in the face of every iota of evidence and reason in public life. That hasn’t stopped many from claiming the election was stolen or profiting from…

We Must Protect the Schools

The importance of defending education from the far-right can’t be understated. — It should go without saying, but schools matter. What society teaches the next generation determines much of its future. Those who teach not only provide valuable life skills that will assist students in their lives and future careers but also provide skills that are critical to the student’s ability to…

GOP Lies and Howls During State of the Union

A hit dog barks — There is a saying that I have heard many times in politics, “a hit dog barks.” This old saying is almost always illustrative of individuals who protest too firmly against an accusation against them, signifying that the accusation is almost certainly true. …

The GOP Ousts Ilhan Omar: A Partisan and Bigoted Move

The GOP may protest, but their move is obvious. — Nobody should be surprised, and yet nobody should pretend it wasn’t a bigoted and partisan attack. In a brazen act of retaliation against Democrats, the House GOP stripped Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Mich) from the Foreign Affairs committee, citing her comments on Israeli foreign policy. The vote, which went entirely along…

Biden and Trump’s Classified Document Scandals Are Not the Same

Though Republicans like to believe it is — This morning, the FBI searched President Biden’s home in Delaware, prompting a firestorm of media coverage and new attention on the ongoing investigation into the President’s handling of classified material. The search, though consensual and not requiring a warrant, has inevitably created comparisons between how the Justice Department responded to…
