04-07-2023 | There are liberals winning elections in the Midwest! Also, they call it "woke" and "socialism" when Black people get stuff. The massive fail at 60 Minutes and the small win at MSNBC. And Springfield IL will have a new mayor, which is a surprise.

03-31-2023 | We read some of your letters and react to the tragic (and preventable, Republicans) murders of children and their caretakers in Nashville.

This week was like a scene out of "His Girl Friday," with reporters vamping while waiting for news. More on being the audience that bolts from MSNBC. Our next big mass movement is against poverty. And the so-called "judgment of history" is bunk, to put it mildly, which Driftglass never puts it mildly!
