Ultra right-wing scary conservatives have mixed emotions about replacing Andrew Jackson with Harriet Tubman on the twenty dollar bill. They're not euphoric over the bill sporting a woman, or a black person, but on the other hand they're getting rid of a Democrat. Andrew Jackson was a slave owner, an ethnic cleanser, and an all...

Bungling Bill
Former president Bill Clinton is spending as much time defending his legacy as he is advocating for his wife's presidential campaign. During his presidency Clinton signed a crime bill. This was widely supported by Republicans and a lot of Democrats. Even Bernie Sanders voted for it and it was written by Joe Biden. It did some... Continue Reading →
Hillarylicious
Sometimes a reader will tell me I have a really weird mind. My older sister used to tell me that on a daily basis. I really don't think there's any real importance to endorsements, yet politicians believe in them.

A citizen called the police and said he thought... Continue Reading →

Black Fridays Matter
Yeah, this will upset some people. I don't expect the majority of my clients to run it. It's scary. Over 18 months ago 17-year-old LaQuan McDonald was shot in the street by Chicago police officer Jason Van Dyke. Laquan was shot 16 times. Fourteen of those shots were after he was laying in the street.... Continue Reading →
