Donald Trump has a Plan to Win the Republican Nomination that Could Sink the GOP in 2024
Donald Trump's plan to win the Republican nomination is pretty obvious, and it may further damage the GOP in 2024. Trump expects that at least six to ten Republicans will challenge him in the primaries including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former secretary of state Mike Pompeo, former Vice-President Mike Pence, former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley, Sen. Ted Cruz, former MD Gov. Larry Hogan, and Sen. Tim Scott, to name but a few. For Trump, the more the merrier. Trump believes th

The January 6th Hearings May Not Change Many Minds But They are Vital to the Future of Our Democracy
After almost a year and more than 1,000 interviews, the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol by a Trump-inspired mob is ready to lay out its findings to the American public. The first hearing will take place this evening and will be carried by all the major news networks in primetime, except for Fox which will likely spin the hearings as partisan despite the participation of GOP House members Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. The committee will la

Much Like His Presidency, Trump's Social Network is a Spectacular Failure
Donald Trump's Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, got off to a rocky start and things have gone downhill from there. Many potential users have been assigned to seemingly endless waitlists and the folks that have successfully accessed the social network are less than impressed. The Hill: "The nascent social media platform initially roared onto the scene, capturing the top spot for free downloads on the Apple app store market. But after less than 20 days, Truth Social finds itself f

Trump Praises Putin's Ukraine Invasion & Says It Might be a Good Model for Our Southern Border
Former President Donald Trump's weird and sickening love of dictators and tyrants manifested itself again yesterday in praise for Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine. Trump labeled Vladimir Putin's invasion “genius” on Buck Sexton’s podcast and then, for good measure, seemed to suggest that we invade northern Mexico. Trump: “I said, ‘How smart is that?’ And he’s gonna go in and be a peacekeeper. That’s the strongest peace force… We could use that on our southern border. That

The Photo that Captures the Essence of Jan. 6th and Trumpism
Often one photo can capture the essence of a moment in history, even if the actual story behind the moment is far more complex and nuanced. For instance, is difficult to think about the Vietnam war without remembering Eddie Adams's photo of Brigadier General Nguyen Ngoc Loan shooting a Viet Cong prisoner on a street in Saigon. For many of us, it captured the brutality of that tragic conflict. Similarly, Saul Loeb's photo of a rioter waving a Confederate battle flag in the Cap

3 Reasons Why Trump's New Social Network Will Fail Spectacularly
On Wednesday, Donald Trump introduced TRUTH Social, a Twitter-like platform with posts that will hilariously be called TRUTHs instead of tweets, and from which the former president can preach to the faithful without "big tech," as he calls them, intervening to stop him from spreading delusional and often dangerous conspiracy theories. Trump's new platform will fail spectacularly and may even destroy the other right-wing social networks in the process. Here's why: 1 The Practi
