The boldness of this particular Senator in publicly attacking a person, an American citizen is astonishing. Briefly, the Arab American Institute is a non-profit membership organization that advocates for the interests of Arab-Americans. Founded in 1985 by James Zogby, the brother of pollster John Zogby, the organization is based in Washington, D.C.

SLATE legal experts Dahlia Lithwick and Joseph Stern picked up on a NYT article written about how Chief Justice John Roberts is not the court’s centrist. I am not sure exactly when Roberts came out of the centrist closet. In any case. Angry Bears Beverly Mann (2014) exposed Roberts as being the one waiting on more conservative justices to join the court. Of course, the majority court occurred during the Trump administration. I will not name names;...

Kind of a rambling story here. What is going on? Investors are stripping the companies of their resources leaving bare bones so to speak. If you attempt to hold the prime investor responsible, the judges get in the way the same as we see SCOTUS Chief John Roberts becoming more involved and District Judge Cannon doing so under advisement of Justice Thomas. A report on the taking over of a chain of hospitals by private investors. The antagonist...

by Charles P. Pierce Esquire AZ State Senator Justine Wadsack thought she was privileged and a state cop calls her out with a ticket. SCOTUS Chief Justice John Roberts does the heavy lifting to save the orange one’s reputation. Small issue being the orange ones prompting of an insurrection. Robert would not compromise and why should he? He had the votes minus the three who would compromise. Charle Pierce discussing the state of affairs at...

Fun in Arizona somewhere in Tucson, AZ. One Senator believes it is ok to do 70 in a posted 35 mph area. While in office, the senator has immunity. Legislative immunity lasts only while the Legislature is in session. So the soon to be Senator was unable to wiggle out of the ticket. Twice the speed limit? Come on . . . Lawfare!’ cries Sen. Justine Wadsack as she heads to court. How dare Tucson try to hold her accountable for doing 71 mph in a 35...

The U.S. economy has been growing faster than military spending, so defense spending as a share of GDP has been decreasing. While the $dollars spent are increasing, the percentage of GDP Defense Spending takes up has been decreasing since 1952. Perhaps a better question is do we really need to spend this much on Defense? Perhaps wiser and defined expenditures may be in order? U.S. Defense Spending in Historical and International Context...

USPS Shuts Out Wyomingites Who Want To Comment On Rural Delivery Plan People trying to sign up to comment on the latest U.S. Postal Service proposal that would impact rural delivery in much of Wyoming are finding themselves shut out after a barely publicized deadline to register for Thursday’s virtual meeting passed. The U.S. Postal Service had announced it won’t hold a second in-person forum for people to comment on its latest plan to cut $3...

This is not 2016 and Trump got one hell of a shellacking from Harris in the debate. She was smiling . . . This forecast by Nate Silver seems to me to be a bit optimistic. about Trump in the lead with 60-something percent. After Trump’s debate performance with Kamala Harris, I do not see Trump winning. If he does, it will be slight. I still would not ignore Trump. We did one time before, thinking our vote would be funny. Against Hillary...
