The Victims of Communism Museum opened this Summer

What a load of crap! I’m just grateful no tax dollars being pissed away on this right-wing masturbation hideout. However, should Herr DeSantis or the other qualified Fascists get installed, we can count on tax money going there along with … Continue reading

RIP Barbara Ehrenreich

Barbara was a great writer and activist who told it like it is! Like most, I never heard of her until she published Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America which came out in 2001. Even then, Barbara was … Continue reading

Biden’s student loan forgiveness is a pitiful start

Took Grampa’ Brunch long enough to do the bare fucking minimum on this issue. And right on cue, the Republicans, Corporate Shills and their Right-Wing Noise Machine ramped up their hollow, hypocritical counter point…never mind all the PPP loans they … Continue reading

America’s Geritocracy gets strengthened

 Yesterday, the Democratic Party of Amerika demonstrated how much it really doesn’t give a crap about the future, or democracy, with its flawed primaries. To be fair, the ancient, NeoLiberal, Boomer-dominated faction is to blame, they’re known as the … Continue reading

Why Amerika can’t have nice things, August 2022 edition

“My side” isn’t perfect either, but I don’t recall even the rank-and-file Obama or Clinton apologists being ‘merched up like Trumpanzes, MAGAts, TeaBaggers, Q-Anoners and the pathetic Insane Clown Posse fans. I’m sure there have been a few over the … Continue reading

Fox News interviews Grand Moff Tarkin

We shouldn’t be surprised that Tarkin is a sleazy, Republican apologist for the Emperor but not a diehard fanatic a la Boebert, Greene or Gaetz; he’s carved from the more cynical branch like McCarthy or McConnell. Sure the Death Star killed … Continue reading

Another demonstration of Kapitalism’s failure

This is one of Austin’s numerous homeless camp sites and it’s within a mile of my house; it’s not just an LA or NYC problem! Does it worry or bother me? Yes but not for the same reasons it upsets … Continue reading

The impotent Democratic Party in one short cartoon

I recently heard the Fresh Air podcast about the GOP, namely the pro-Fascist faction, having their CPAC circle jerk in Hungary’s visible dictatorship. They then returned the favor with Orban being invited to the Orlando gathering. It’s disgusting and frightening to … Continue reading

ERCOT’s current solution from Abbott’s base

So far, our shit-bag governor putting the CEO of a truck-stop chain in charge of ERCOT isn’t really working out. As expected, the GOP-run Idiocracy has been begging people to scale back their AC usage and to not run major … Continue reading

What a bunch of Incel Losers

I love the vandalism done to the photo yet these assholes remain an important warning sign of what may be going wrong in Amerika. Many people don’t know the whole story on how Germany went from being a nice, open, … Continue reading

Well…SCOTUS has now reached peak irrelevance

It’s now official, the Minority Government in power hates women and poor people. This crap rationale of the most incredible verbal, philosophical yoga will be remembered when Amerikan Democracy went from dying to almost no pulse. I figured the country’s … Continue reading

A call back to the “simpler days”

Namely that time when the GOP tried to overthrow the rightfully elected and re-elected POTUS for cheating on his wife which hadn’t happened in like…never. I would go out on a limb to say that the philanders are in the … Continue reading

Remember, Wall Street and NeoLiberals hate you

Chairman Powell is leading the charge to make sure Grampa’ Brunch will be a one-term POTUS after the Democrats get slaughtered this November, which will make the Bears’ only Super Bowl victory resemble a “mere dustup.” He and his shit … Continue reading

Bob Garfield hangs up his headphones

Damn! Just when I thought his podcast Bully Pulpit was picking up traction, Bob decided to throw in the towel because there weren’t enough paid subscribers and it’s hard to do something for free successfully in a universe with thousands of … Continue reading
