Veterans May Help The Democratic Party Reclaim The House

Politically speaking, left is now right, and hawks are now doves. It’s a mixed up world. What’s not confusing is how mainstream Democrats can be.

Social Media Is A Breeding Ground For “Sowing Discord”

Buying followers—real or fake—on Twitter and other social media platforms has been an irritating problem for years. The shady firms who offer these services play the vanity card to perfection and it works. It works because we are human and humans need to organize. Like wolves, we need a pack leader, and people mistake high […]

Naming Names And Pointing Fingers—The Battle For Public Lands Is Heating Up

Michigan Attorney, Dana Nessel, Promises To Keep Her “Non Penis” In Her Pants

Dana Nessel, a tenacious advocate for justice, will not sexually harass staff. This is a point she painfully makes clear in the following commercial: She asks, “Who can you trust not to show you their penis in a professional setting?

We Have A Big Fat Platform Problem

Fake news is such an innocent term. The fact that it masks what it really is—propaganda—seems to get lost in the equation. Nevertheless, what does “fake news” actually look like? It looks like this: Sadly, fake news, a.k.a. propaganda is not innocent, nor does it exist in a bubble. According to Bloomberg, Russian meddling is […]
