TAPA # 230 THE CANADIAN CONTRAST
As I’ve watched the sparring between Canadian and American leaders, the contrast could not be more bold or stark. The Canadians speak with dignity, purpose, and principle. The Americans seem addled, sleazy, and devoid of integrity. The Canadians are defending their country, their sovereignty, with dignity. We Americans, on the other hand, appear as bullies,…

TAPA # 228 ATTENTION OR ACHTUNG???
ATTENTION OR ACHTUNG??? “We can only lose the midterms if we allow ourselves to lose the midterms, if we are foolish, stupid, and unwise.”Donald Trump at Mount Rushmore, discussing the midterm elections and suggesting that any Republican loss would be the fault of his supporters, not his own. “The German people demonstrated that they were…

TAPA # 227 WRITTEN IN PENCIL???
WRITTEN IN PENCIL “Written in pencil.” That is how Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney described agreements made with Trump. It is a fitting description of dealing with this White House: nothing is dependable, nothing is permanent, and apparently nothing is worth the paper it is written on. Once again, Trump has triggered a “war”, this time…

TAPA # 224 NOT A CHANCE???
NOT A CHANCE? Yesterday, old Bone Spurs blew more hot air, threatening ‘Economic D-Day’, for Iran. Who is he kidding, other than himself?

TAPA # 223
A Descent Into the Inferno Sitting here, reading and worrying about the midterm elections, I become more concerned the more I learn about what Trump is doing to enrich himself, his family, and his friends while simultaneously working to suppress the vote. It is almost inconceivable that a man who received only 18% of the…

TAPA # 223 INFAMY, NOT FAME!!!
Senator Cassidy: I watched your interview where you spoke about the extraordinary privilege of serving as a United States senator and of participating in decisions that history may judge as having changed the world. You became emotional as you described both the responsibility and the privilege entrusted to you as you voted for Blanche. You…

Because people who care about:Children and women abused by Epstein and his buddiesThe right of police officers to feel protected and supported by their governmentFree speechThe rule of law—where people are prosecuted not for who they are or what they believe, but for what they actually didFairness in taxation and the obligation of everyone to…

TAPA # 221 A REFLECTION
The Trump administration’s latest tariff policy appears to be little more than a pretext, a spurious rationale extracted from an obscure provision of trade law. The administration now claims that tariffs are justified because dozens of foreign economies have failed to prohibit imports produced with forced labor. Under this extraordinary theory, countries as different as…

“Corrected” TAPA # 220 McCarthy REDUX or Washington Witch Trial???
(Sen. Ron Johnson, not Wyden) The Senate hearing to interrogate Dr. Anthony Fauci, conducted by Senator Rand Paul is, to date, one of the most sordid and disturbing examples of the Maga Republican Party’s increasingly un-American and authoritarian behavior. The hearing appears to have been deliberately constructed as a redux of the proceedings associated with…
