Leaving out the accuser
House Oversight Chair Elijah Cummings started it. He went after a member of the administration (the director of Homeland Security) and personally attacked him with charges that kids and illegal immigrants are standing in their own feces at our detent.... Read more
Boston Globe attacks!
Doing a front-page spread about Donald Trump’s alleged racism is the highlight of the Boston Globe’s year. But this cover, comprising three articles and eight photos, should be seen in the context of another full-page spread, the one before the e.... Read more
Trump the authoritarian
Here is a link to a recent opinion piece in the New York Times which charges Donald Trump with being an authoritarian leader. This means he is, or is trying to become, or wants to be, a dictator. This means he doesn't follow the rule of law and would.... Read more
The AOC-Warren-Sanders-Harris vision of our future
This funny little article about a Maine family that decides to totally live off the land is not bad. But after I scanned through it, the following thought occurred to me: This is how the Green New Deal (if it ever gets implemented) is going to aff.... Read more
Wall Street Journal discusses government debt

No collusion, no exoneration
The Boston Globe's front-page Friday is a good example of editorial bias. The Globe has used its front page inappropriately several times in the past, including a completely fake cover during the election which falsely predicted dire consequences fro.... Read more
Where’s my Warren Report?
It’s Monday, and no Warren Report in the Boston Globe. What gives? The Globe was running an almost daily Warren Report for months and months. If it wasn’t Warren, it was someone she mentored, it was a college giving her a degree, it was her do.... Read more
Why does the Globe keep running articles on Trump’s mental health?
The Boston Globe has written several articles by psychiatrists who are trying to diagnose President Donald Trump with mental illness, despite not having examined him. This runs contrary to American Psychiatric guidelines, yet the Globe continues to g.... Read more
Exoneration
When I first open the Boston Globe app to read the day’s headlines, I never know what I will find. This morning, after the weekend release of the Mueller report’s conclusions, I was prepared for another partisan headline and article. But I was pl.... Read more
