Underestimated: Biden and Democrats
Old dogs can learn new tricks, or maybe for this particular old dog, he already had new tricks. For all the second-guessing of President Biden by both allies and enemies, he has accomplished more transformative legislation in his first term since at least President Johnson, who ushered in the Civil and Voting Rights Acts, Fair Housing Act, Medicaid, Medicare, and a bevy of other anti-poverty measures.
2022-11-21 14:36
Game on
In America, the midterm elections are nearly upon us. Republicans (also known as the GOP) stand to take the House at least. Historically, the party of the president (President Biden's Democratic Party) loses seats in midterms.
2022-10-24 15:33
There is no bottom
“Over the last 30 years, the Republican Party has effectively eliminated its moderate and liberal voices - as well as the conservative voices that put country over party. The consequences of this takeover by an increasingly right-wing faction include the threats to democracy that have become increasingly prominent since the Jan. 6 riots,” said former House Representative Peter Smith, R-Vermont, in his guest essay for The New York Times.

For Terra
Deauwand (at seven years old): "Grandma, I didn't know that." Grandma (Alice Missouri Myers): "What you don't know could make a world."
2022-08-28 16:12
Democracy has fallen
The American midterm elections this year will be the most consequential ones since at least I was born. If Republicans win back the House of Representatives and or the Senate, a white, Christo-fascist, illiberal party with a death cult of personality for Trump or Trumpism will be in power. President Biden could be impeached for no reason, show trials of Cabinet officials will occur, horrific policies like a universal abortion ban, and even worse, will happen.
2022-08-01 16:00
Fake news
Fake news was used thousands of years ago for propaganda, fear-mongering, populism, and political opportunism. It's nothing new.

'The Handmaid's Tale'
Margaret Atwood's dystopian novel, "The Handmaid's Tale," explores a near-future America (renamed after the biblical nation-state, Gilead) where women are sexually enslaved to be breeding machines (handmaids) for military and political elites. In this Christo-fascist regime, sexual minorities, adherents of other religions and political dissidents are sent to toxic labor/concentration camps, tortured, maimed, and/or summarily executed. Women, even of the ruling military theocracy, don't have much autonomy or personal agency, if at all
2022-06-06 17:00
Captured
Conservatives across advanced democracies share a similar ideology. They believe in “less government,” smaller social safety nets, neoliberal economic policies, and are hostile to workers' rights while fetishizing concentrated wealth and free markets. But no conservative political party in any democratic country is as radical and unhinged as the American Republicans (henceforth called the GOP, or “Grand Old Party”).

Whiteness and COVID-19
COVID-19, as deadly and crippling as it can be, provided, and indeed is providing, an important trove of information by which we can measure the scourge of white supremacist imperialism and the lethal consequences thereof.
2022-04-26 16:34
A lesson for Xi
Russian President Vladimir Putin thought his modernized military would make quick work of Ukraine, since Russia has better military technology and more troops at its disposal than its smaller neighbor. He thought he could topple the democratically-elected Ukrainian government and install a puppet regime loyal to the Kremlin.
