The VFW On Those Headaches in Iraq
As we have documented over the past two weeks, injuries reported from the Iran attacks on Iraq based American military installations went from none to eleven to thirty four…headaches according to the president. And like me, the VFW isn’t happy about it.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – “In light of today’s announcement from the […]
You’ve probably heard about the brouhaha around the NPR interview of Secretary of State Mike Pompeo conducted by Mary Louise Kelly. As long as he was deflecting about American foreign policy on Iran he was feeling no pain. But when the topic shifted to the Ukraine and former US Ambassador to the Ukraine, Marie […]
In the past month we’ve seen an incredible number of dangerous events transpire in Iraq…between the United States and Iran...originally over the death of an American contractor. But despite the president’s actions in Iraq and his pronouncements via Twitter…he left some important things unsaid:
It has been almost three weeks since Nawres Waleed […]
So How Long Can Mick Mulvaney Be Acting Chief of Staff?
Every time the media refers to Mick Mulvaney, they give his title as Acting White House Chief of Staff. President Trump named him to that position in December of 2018 and he has held that position since January of 2019. After a year, isn’t it reasonable to either make him Chief of Staff or name […]
Why Is The US Still Using Contractors In Iraq?

So Trump Finally Gets An Ukrainian Investigation!

U kraine has opened a criminal […]
The Trump regime is moving forward with regulations to reduce the cost of prescription drugs for Americans. But instead of taking the bull by the horns, they are willing to play games with importing drugs from other countries. I mean, just negotiate drug prices for crying out loud. Or limit drug costs and drug […]

U. S. Senators are sharing photographs of the growing pile of bills passed by the House only to stymie on Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s desk.
The stack, a symbolic replication of legislation McConnell refuses to bring […]
Will Trump Be Around to Deliver State of the Union?
Invite went out from Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. It’s unlikely, but maybe they will remove him before February 4th? Well probably not. But considering the six page rant of lies and fairy tales and discredited talking points sent to Rep. Pelosi by someone in the White House (we know the president doesn’t have […]
USDA Removes Wakanda As Free Trade Partner!
A little comic relief today. But the USDA website apparently included Wakanda as a free trade partner. You know, Wakanda, the fictional home of Marvel Comics super hero Black Panther!
Wakanda’s free trade agreement with the United States wasn’t forever.
Until Wednesday afternoon, the fictional country from the popular 2018 Marvel […]
