A War on a Crisis…
THE CRUX OF IT: The hypocrisy of the law. Opioids are drugs that fall into a specific category of illegal and highly addictive substances like heroin or prescription painkillers such as Percocet or OxyContin. There is currently a trend to view those addicted to these destructive substances as suffering and hapless victims. Those that spout […]
SLY FOX
THE CRUX OF IT: Mixed Reactions. Fox has axed O’Reilly the Clown! That is cause for some small elation. After 13 million dollars in lawsuit settlements and four dozen or more advertisers separating themselves from the channel and the TV personality, the network has parted ways with the host that became […]
Bad Dialogue
THE CRUX OF IT : Refusing to respect the disrespectful. The following clip is somewhat astounding due to the disconnect that exists between the commentators. Angela Rye is a lawyer and a political commentator and her opponent is Joe Walsh, a former politician who is seemingly vying for a spot on the political discourse […]
Grifter at the Gates
The Pacifiers…
THE CRUX OF IT: Meeting takers with force. Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-Fla.) make a distinct point of not allowing himself to be silenced by an opponent that would pacify his intensity. The point to take away from this exchange is this: It is not your obligation to deliver […]
Right Out of the Gates!
THE CRUX OF IT: . Corruption overload. We currently have a sitting President – not a candidate, hopeful, businessman or woman, aide, Senator, mayor, or governor- but a SITTING PRESIDENT under an FBI investigation – right now right at this moment. Let that sink in… The most powerful seat at the […]
Despite their Spite
THE CRUX OF IT: Success in the face of ignorance. As reported by Carla Herreria The Panther Bots is a team comprised of Latino and Black fourth graders from Indianapolis’ Pleasant Run Elementary School. The students were competing in a robotics competition when their competitors saw them in the parking lot and […]
Litany of Lies
THE CRUX OF IT: Different standards exist for this illegitimate administration. Our times are not so desperate that our elected officials have to resort to unmitigated lying. This idiot and his team can do, say, and claim virtually ANYTHING that they choose to without recrimination, remorse, or even much ridicule! These people are […]
The Power in Hypocrisy
THE CRUX OF IT: Control and power trumps fake values. Just one simple question: With control of the Presidency, the Court, and two houses of Congress, what would have to happen in this current joke of an administration to warrant an impeachment?
THE UNTOUCHABLES
THE CRUX OF IT: IMPUNITY. Let’s get this straight, Michael Flynn, Donald Trump’s national security adviser,spoke with Russian officials DURING the election to discuss, reportedly, lifting sanctions on Russia imposed by the Obama Administration. Subsequently, it has been well documented that the eastern nation hacked and tampered with a sovereign country’s election […]
Your Life is Your Right
THE CRUX OF IT: The audacity is enraging. Two men in Michigan claimed to be upset about a so-called illegal traffic stop. They claimed that they were in fear for their life at the time. So, their well thought out solution was to immediately revisit the situation by storming angrily into […]
Low Blow
THE CRUX OF IT: These fools have got some balls… What if you could, by law, be made to feel the worst physical pain possible? Last week Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R) signed a bill into law that allows a woman’s husband to sue a doctor for civil damages and bans most second trimester abortions. […]
Some Color – History Month
THE CRUX OF IT: If you can’t say something right, then don’t say anything at all. This was the tweet that Pence put out to commemorate Black History Month. Curiously, the target for the honor is somewhat…WRONG Vice President Pence ✔ @VP As #BlackHistoryMonth begins, we remember when Pres. Lincoln submitted the 13th Amendment, ending […]
