Malcolm Nance March 8th, 2025 — A sober and thorough intelligence analysis concludes that the Orange Turd is actually planning to invade Canada and...
Thom Hartmann again nails it, January 2nd, 2025:

For the last 40 years plus, when has anyone seen any GOP caucus do anything for the American People? Meaning not the infinitesimal group who are the 1% of...
Many millions of us must correctly comprehend our collective situation if we are to win the war to defend American Democracy and American Liberty from the domestic enemies of the Constitution who have been making war on it since the mid-1970's. Their war is reaching its intended...
| Hi Joseph, It has only been a couple of weeks since the election, and like the rest of the post-pandemic-period, my sense of time is much skewed — it seems like it has been two years since the country voted to return Donald Trump to office along with Republican majorities in the House... |
"Decapitation Strike", by Timothy Snyder, America's leading expert on tyranny throughout history

The nominations "Trump" is making have one and only one purpose: to achieve the dictatorship he has been craving since long...

World War T is looking up these last few days. Here's an update on the Bullshit Volcano's latest BS regarding PA:
...it's time to watch Michelle's speech of yesterday, October 26, 2024:

America's mental health professionals have finally decided they can't keep quiet any longer:

So they're stating what should be painfully obvious to everyone but is obviously not. Their open letter was featured today in the NY Times.

In 2017, photographer William Moon, going by photowhitehouse, made this photograph at the White House. The subject predictably claimed later that the picture was “photoshopped”, because he hoped that no one would believe this reflects his actual appearance. Unluckily for...
Or has it? In many states, during the runup to the November 5th, 2024 election, millions of voters' registrations are being systematically deleted, changed to "inactive" or purged altogether, using a variety of criminal, GOP schemes to target voters whom they expect...
My take on what makes him tick:
1) His only goal in life is to prove to himself that he’s the ultimate “winner” and “killer”, meaning simply that he has to get the better of more people, in bigger ways, than anyone else.
2) His remarkably absolute devotion to that...
Trump's political Teflon coating is at least a hundred times more effective than Reagan’s was in his wildest dreams. Why?

That article contains the most complete list of Little Shitler's...
I've never heard it put quite so succinctly as Robert Reich did in this wonderful, six-minute video. If you love your country, your family, the American land, sanity, justice — whatever — share this video:

I have always found the UI's and the built-in documentation for Google's many software offerings (excepting their travel agent-like program) to be monumentally confusing. Today I finally found a support person (by chatting with no fewer than seven different ones) who knew her stuff...
On a personal, and education-related note, a beautifully done article about the 54-year history of my major at the University of California at Berkeley (i.e. at Cal) has recently been published in both the printed and online versions of Breakthroughs Magazine. It contains two of my...
And how "No Labels" is one of many projects to cement that horrific outcome:

Required reading! Thom Hartmann's article published June 16th, 2023
My Experiment to Compare the Power Consumption of Heat Pump Mode Versus Energy Saver Mode
Over the last eleven days I ran a series of experiments which limited the number of variables to two: heat pump modes and water usage levels. Rheem insists that their Energy Saver mode is more...

How to Save a New Schedule
After opening the app (EcoNet version 6.x, not the slight variant called Rheem EcoNet nor the other slight variant called Ruud EcoNet), click the central area of the first screen...
(Updated January 31, 2023 after a long series of experiments revealed surprising results)
This series of three articles is about my quest to optimize the energy efficiency, operating cost and indirect pollution effects of a new heat pump water heater using the controls in Rheem's EcoNet...
Don't miss Arnold's magnificently conceived, 9-minute video message to the people of Russia, posted late on Tuesday, March 15th, 2022:

As "Trump" is German for Bullshit.
Little Vladimir, the world's #1 terrorist, strikes again, proving that the power-hungry, skilled liar is humanity's worst enemy.
Any populace that is either ignorant about the basic facts of democracy or otherwise unable to keep a wannabe dictator from...
This face reveals plainly the quintessence of the thing that National Defense is for. The life-long, KGB spy master has finally come fully into his own, but his character has never changed and has been as obvious as the contrived non-expression on his face ever since we’ve known him.
If WW II...
Election fraud is alive and well in America, and has been thriving for decades if not longer. It's millions of times bigger than voter fraud. And this appalling fact means that American elections absolutely are rigged. Trump was right about that, but of course he was lying about who was rigging...
I’m decidedly not a virologist, but I do pay attention, and it strikes me that a glaring omission continues to be made in explaining to us all about how viral infections and vaccines work.
A viral infection is a race — a race that starts when a virus gets into you and successfully enters a cell,...
There has been and continues to be a long-standing problem with the way that methane is described as a greenhouse gas (GHG). The proper way to describe the strength of the various GHG’s using a pound of CO2 emitted (or a pound in the sky) as the benchmark would be to say A) How much heat is...
The fate of the American republic, and therefore of democracy worldwide, hangs by a thread. That thread will either prove to be a lifeline or will be cut, most likely by next Monday, January 17th, 2022.
The Freedom to Vote Act and the updated Voting Rights Act must reach President Biden's...
There are only two things that one needs to know to thoroughly understand our 45th President.
The first is simply that he harbors good will toward no one.
The second is that his one great purpose in life is to prove himself to be the ultimate "winner" or “killer,” in the lingo of his family,...
Lawrence Lessig has another great new project to help save the republic. Ending the winner-take-all practice of the Electoral College process will return presidential elections to the principle of one person one vote and reclaim this most fundamental aspect of democracy from the catastrophically...
On Thursday, January 21st, 2010, the Supreme Court of the United States, in what is surely one of the three worst rulings in the history of the court, perpetrated a heinous crime against American democracy and the future of the American people. The five justices responsible were naturally: John...

For some time it has been clear to me that the changes we're seeing in the arctic, especially, prove beyond a reasonable doubt that we have long since passed critical major tipping points in the Earth's climate system. Perhaps the most important surprise from the...
SPEECH BY AL GORE ON THE ACCEPTANCE
OF THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE
DECEMBER 10, 2007
OSLO, NORWAY
Your Majesties, Your Royal Highnesses, Honorable members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, Excellencies, Ladies and gentlemen.
I have a purpose here today. It is a purpose I have tried to serve for many...
Seriously, Al Gore's receipt of the Nobel Peace Prize for his tremendous commitment to educating the people of the world about the consequences of our unsustainable mistreatment of the sky is another major turning point in the effort to prevent the unfolding global catastrophe from taking us to...
On Friday the 17th of August, 2007, a news report on NPR revealed that the extent of the Arctic sea ice had, surprisingly, just reached a new all-time low extent (area), a full six weeks ahead of the expected seasonal minimum, meaning that the low ice extent for 2007 would be a record low by a...
Please take a minute to watch this fabulous video spot that does something we've been needing for a long time, a way to visualize accurately this invisible but critically important process: Black Balloon.
Or this newer one, brilliantly illustrating the immense scale of our pollution: ...
On today's installment of Fresh Air, on National Public Radio, the climatologist Kerry Emanuel, professor at MIT's Deparment of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences, gave a very succinct explanation of how it is that human-induced atmospheric changes are indeed responsible for the major...
A new study conducted by NASA, authored by 48 scientists, warns that the so-called tipping points for the Earth's climate are much closer than previously thought. The critical thresholds for atmospheric CO2 levels may be "much lower than 450 ppm", meaning that we may already be beyond the...
