It’s not often that you get a second chance to make a first impression; perhaps no more so than in politics. But with his speech commemorating the 1/6/21 insurrection at the Capitol, Joe Biden reintroduced himself as president to America. Although there is disagreement about whether Biden’s current policy agenda…

Our still-new president, Joe Biden, ran his campaign throughout 2020 on a message of what I have labeled Relentless Decency. His character projected all the opposite traits of the person he was running against. The American people chose his reassuring empathy over the exasperating divisiveness of his opponent. Despite the…

Do it. Do it now. Who cares if DJT supports it. Rid the nation, nay the world, of viral hate. If you watched “60 Minutes” on January 3, you know why. Now that we have seen one man’s accounts, DJT’s, suspended or deleted by numerous social media platforms, it’s…

As this and many other articles say about Senator Hawley and other Trump sycophants, they probably do and, if not, should know that they are wrong about objecting to the election of Joe Biden as president. In fact, that may be the most disturbing aspect of this stunt. They do…

Tom Friedman, in the 12/15/20 New York Times, wrote about how president Biden should give vice president Harris an opportunity to undertake a project to wire up rural america for broadband.

It would also put her and the new administration in front of a constituency that has all but left the Democratic Party.

I was able to watch the simultaneous coverage of the Biden announcement of his Healthcare team and DJT at his so-called Vaccine Summit (where, it should be noted, the two makers of the vaccine did not even show up). The contrast could not have been starker. On one side of…

The national trauma that was, and continues to be, the Trump Administration calls for a national reconciliation in order to depolarize the country after DJT spent four years exacerbating it. DJT built his re-election campaign on issues that were meant to divide the American people even more than they already…

DJT has never been ideological. He’s always been about himself. That has been true especially in his ongoing battle to overturn the 2020 election that has cost him his job. He’s not trying to save the GOP or the federal courts he’s packed or national infrastructure he’s done nothing about…

Pretty soon, the Trump cult will begin to disperse and maybe even vote significantly Democratic in 2022, and more emphatically in 2024; that is, if electoral democracy survives. If these people could be sucked into a cult so easily, then they can be sucked out of it again fairly easily…
