Old software guy, raised in France and west Africa, came back to the States,

US Army 79-83, spent four years in West Germany, (yeah I'm that old), lived off and on between Chicagoland and Quetzaltenango Guatemala. Worked back and forth between Osaka and the USA.

Kids are raised and gone. Remarried and living in western Wisconsin. Enjoy photography, writing a book about The Driftless, learning to made drone video. Life's been good to me.

Breathe in: life is going on all around you.

Remember: Trump's jury was made up of ordinary citizens — selected with input from Trump's own lawyers. The jurors were not politicians or members of the "Deep State." They were Americans who did their civic duty.

Can you imagine, Trump's attorneys allowing not one, but TWO lawyers onto the jury?

It's your turn to be a political strategist.

If Trump is found guilty, should Biden emphasize the guilty verdict or focus on abortion and democracy instead?

Biden needs a new Message Czar. Find out what people are afraid of - now it's the economy, what with inflation - but that's bad thinking.

It doesn't matter what the hell they're thinking! Biden needs to quit acting like their concerns, however idiotic, aren't real.

When I was a mere clerk for the 1st circuit appeals court, I wasn't allowed to have a political bumper sticker for fear of creating even the appearance of bias on the court.

How can Justice Alito be allowed to rule on Jan 6-related matters after flying a pro-insurrection flag?

How questions of this sort contain the answer:

How? Because he was allowed. The Chief Justice is a dud.

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:

  1. Break up corporate monopolies

  2. Continue building union power

  3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics

Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

Why doesn't anyone in the USA understand the concept of codetermination, where half the members of corporate boards of directors are workers, the other half from investors?

Why have you never said anything about it?

I sincerely doubt you read these comments - much less respond to them. It's discouraging.
