Story Of The Week: Fractions Widen Between UAE and Saudi Arabia
I suggest the most interesting and consequential news story this week was the growing divide between the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia. I noticed that national evening news broadcasts on ABC and NBC, while giving time to fluff stories and reports because they had videos of crashes and fires, could not provide viewers the… Continue reading

Iran War: Expertise Replaced With Promotion of Opinion
I admit laughing when reading or hearing MAGA defend Donald Trump’s unnecessary Iran War by merely repeating the White House line that the conflict has been going on for 47 years.

Tom Tiffany Too Tethered To Trump, While Darren Bailey Builds Blueprint For Balance
It came as no surprise that Republican Congressman Tom Tiffany received Donald Trump’s endorsement for this November’s gubernatorial race. The 7th congressional district has been represented since May 2020 by an elected official who has slavishly supported Trump. In the endorsement, Trump said the congressman is someone who has “always been at my side”. What… Continue reading
