We've all known people who talk a lot but say nothing, but I don't recall one getting up this high in politics before. The Lincoln Project took it upon themselves to condense down Donald Trump's latest Iowa speech into...
The heart-rending tragedy of the bombings of cities and civilians unfolding in Gaza, as well as the heinous and despicable acts of terror against civilians by Hamas which precipitated them, are both frightening examples of the barbarity which humans...
Who needs a laugh? It's relatively quiet today in Trump world. Daddy screamed at all his enemies and got it out of his system. The lawyers got included in their mouthy defendant's gag order. I don't know if that's...
