Tuesday! David Waldman! KITM! Can you imagine anything more condescending or patronizing than telling a world leader that today his suit is more acceptable to you?  Maybe not you, but you aren’t Donald K. Trump. Yesterday, in between the times that Trump…

David Waldman does his Tuesday KITM thing. As you are doing, right now. Donald K. Trump, that little ‘Gyna-tease, taco’d his China tariffs into Christmas buying season. As if he’d ever cross Xi Jinping, who’s quite a pussy-grabber himself. Trump’s…

Monday and David Waldman return to varying degrees of anticipation. Greg Dworkin hauls in his latest Raft O’ Stories™ out of the fetid morass of ExTwitter. Let’s say that place sucks and you don’t like it.  If so, you can follow Adam Carlson, Jacob…

David Waldman is back! No wait, I was gone, he was here. At least it’s Friday, right? A good guy without a gun stopped a bad guy with a gun at a place with a lot of guns. It sounds as if Trump oversold his trade deals a bit. He does have a tendency to…

It’s Thursday! That means Greg Dworkin is on his way out the door for the weekend! That’s OK. Congress is gone all month. Which might be why Democrats in that body aren’t doing what the latest “centrist” pundit says they ought to be doing… which…
