Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Well, That's Not Creepy AF

Donald Trump wants to have a military parade in Red Square down Pennsylvania Avenue.

Trump has no consistent political ideology, but he has a reflexive respect for dictators for being "strong."  He is clearly a guy who gives no shits about Madisonian checks and balances.  That's why - given the supine nature of the Republican Congress - we are relying on the Courts to rein this doofus in.

Norms are important people.
