The first day of Trump’s second Impeachment Trial
Today, as most of you know, is the first day of the 2nd impeachment trial of Donald John Trump, the former President of the United States. The presentation this week from the House Impeachment Managers is likely to use a … Continue reading
Shame on all the Republicans who claimed impeachment would restrain Donald Trump
Shame on all the Republicans who claimed impeachment would restrain Donald Trump, especially you, Susan Collins. Collins claims to be a moderate and an independent voice. She is so full of shit. Every time she has the chance to do … Continue reading
Who knew that Mitt Romney, who threw his own signature health care law under a bus, would be a Profile in Courage?
I was never that big a fan of Mitt Romney. He was Governor of Massachusetts for a term, but to get there he had to lie, flagrantly, about his being pro-choice. (Spoiler alert: he’s not.) In 2012 I argued the … Continue reading
Irony is Dead (or at least on life-support)
When you see Ken Starr getting up in front of the Senate and the American public, and lamenting that we’ve arrived at an “age of impeachment,” then you know that irony is dead. Or at least on life support. Ken … Continue reading
I never thought I would see the day where I would be in support of John Bolton
Boy, I never thought I would see the day where I would be in support of John Bolton. He is a neocon’s neocon. He and I aren’t likely to agree on just about anything. And yet, here we are. Bolton … Continue reading

Seven Fallacies about Impeachment to keep in mind
As the impeachment trial of Donald Trump finally gets rolling, this might be a good time to review some of the legalities of impeachment. It turns out that the gold standard for books about impeachment is Charles Black’s Impeachment (A … Continue reading
Our Hypocrisy is not like theirs, part 23
As the Senate impeachment trial of Donald Trump begins this morning, there has been a bit of focus on the oath that Senators have to swear in order to be jurors in the impeachment trial. That oath says: Do you … Continue reading
The notion that Trump did not get due process before the House Committees is laughable on its face
In the impeachment debate before the House there some remarkable claims relative to the due process that President Trump allegedly did not receive (if you can believe the GOP) before the House Intelligence Committee and the House Judiciary Committee in … Continue reading
