The Trump delusions reached new lows as his depiction of Jesus the Savior evolved to just a Doctor after pushback from religious leaders. After the Pope had already hit back at his threats and comments. The bloom is off the rose even in MAGA circles.

More notable was the No Kings march in Staunton, Virginia. And Salis...

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's disgraceful and un-American decision to refuse the promotion of two women and Black officer to the rank of 1-star General is yet another disgraceful chapter in the Trump 2.0 Admin. If our military is racist and misogynist, it will deter future enrollments. For today, it hurts morale. Bigger picture the American people have come to expect their military to be a t...

Trump's war of choice against Iran has already created unintended consequences on the world economy with energy prices.
