25th Amendment Needed to Stop A Walking Biological Mistake
Calls for the removal of Donald Trump from the Oval Office are increasing. As we move to week nine of an unnecessary war in Iran, the quagmire effect is taking hold as international relations fray, economic damage escalates, and dire political consequences for the Republican Party multiply.

Senator Ron Johnson Makes Us Stop And Think
The Wisconsin State Journal wrote this weekend in an editorial that, “When (Wisconsin Senator Ron) Johnson, a fan of conspiracy theories, is the voice of reason, you know things are bad. Some found that sentence all too true, given the absurdity that has been unleashed by Donald Trump’s Iran war; others surely laughed. I have… Continue reading
