With two debates completed and less than 6 months until the Iowa caucuses officially kick off the primary season, I pose the following question: is former Vice-President Joe Biden the Democratic party’s best choice to be their nominee and take on President Trump? The Democrats have a field of 24 candidates for President, probably the […]
Some thoughts about the two CNN Democratic debates this past Tuesday and Wednesday. In the first debate (on Tuesday), the first 30-35 minutes were about health care. It was a battle of the moderates (Steve Bullock, John Delaney, John Hickenlooper, Tim Ryan, and Amy Klobuchar) against the left (Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders). The main topic […]
Some basic takeaways from the release of the Mueller report, which I intend to read in its entirety when I have five-six hours with nothing else to do. 1.

America lost a great man yesterday when Arizona Senator John McCain passed away at the age of 81. For over a year, McCain had battled a brain tumor and yesterday, the battle was lost. McCain was a war hero, a former prisoner of war in Vietnam, and U.S. Senator for over 3 decades. John Sidney […]
Today House Republicans approved a massive overhaul of America’s tax code and all that’s needed to make it the law of the land is a signature from President Trump.

In a young administration that has never lacked for news or controversy, President Trump’s decision to fire FBI Director James Comey on Tuesday has turned into the news story of the year, with twists and turns so bizarre that a Hollywood script writer might reject some as being “not believable.” Without knowing what future years […]

After mostly keeping my mouth shut, I can’t help but weigh in on what’s transpired over the first 15 weeks of the Trump Administration. Whether you love him or loathe him, we are at a pivotal moment in […]
Today is President’s Day, a national holiday honoring the birthday of our first president, George Washington (actually born on February 22, 1732, a mere 285 years ago on Wednesday). Today also serves as the one-month milepost in the administration of Donald J. Trump, the 45th President of the United States. The first month of the […]
Well, I would like to introduce my mouth to a crow because I need to eat some. Donald J. Trump, billionaire real estate mogul, reality TV star and political novice, in his first foray into politics, will be the President of the United States. For months Trump told us that the polls were wrong, that […]
Well, sports fans, in just under 24 hours we will start getting results from Election Day. We will learn who will be our next President of the United States and which political party will control the Senate for 2017 and 2018. 31 days ago, when the lewd Access Hollywood Trump tape was released, conventional wisdom said that […]
