JOIN US OR YOU’RE RUSSIAN ASSETS

Saturday, July 28th, a blog post appeared on Medium that once again highlighted the hysterical disregard for human decency and dignity directed to anyone, no matter their background, who dare to criticize or reject the method and model of the Russian narrative shaped by a few specific individuals. Their proposition…

The Dangers of Either/Or Experts

Orginally published on my blog in September of 2017. HOW TO BE A RUSSIAN EXPERT 101: Take any new revelation about Bots and Russia as a green light to translate a wider than socially acceptable definition of “evidence”; meanwhile claiming anyone who has the slightest differing opinion is a Russian…

The Media’s Trump-Russia Graphics: We Need To Talk Quantity and Standards

Throughout 2017 there were countless Trump-Russia pieces that came out of dozens of newspapers, online news sites, cable news, and blogs. Many of those pieces presented fresh in-house visual images to pair with the headline. But are those images serving a productive service or misdirecting our perceptions? We live in…

My Son’s First Curse Word Is Shithole. I Love It. My Evangelical Trump Supporting Family Will Not.

I was crouched under my couch trying to retrieve a Peppa Pig toy my 18-month-old daughter lost when my five-year-old son walked up and asked: “Dad, what’s a shithole?” My head quickly dropped to the floor, I laid motionless for a couple seconds, primarily to use the recliner function of…

The Cast For The Trump 2017 Miniseries

Back in April I started tweeting MY casting choices for the obvious Trump administration movie that will be produced someday soon.

We’re In Obstruction Of Justice Purgatory

Hours after James Comey’s opening remarks were released, the public was flooded with hundreds of professional “opinions” on how Trump’s actions were absolutely Obstruction of Justice or absolutely not.

Why Does Awful Mean Something Unpleasant?

For almost a decade now I have had this misunderstanding of “awful.” It has never made sense to me. Why do we use awful in that way? Just looking at the word you see it has two parts that breakdown to basically “full of awe.” Well if I’m in awe…
