To: The Disgraced Leader of US Well, of course the jury will be out for quite some time on whether the bones of this place, this pseudo democracy (messed up as it is by mega-money and abuses of power) are good and strong enough to bother rehabilitating around. The answer to that overwhelming question almost … Continue reading The MAGA-merica fever dream is breaking

A picture may be worth a thousand words, but it still doesn’t lead to just indictments of killer cops
To: The Race Baiter I’m still reading Jill Lepore’s tome “These Truths: A History of The United States.” I’m all of 24% through it and have about 31 hours left to go. It’s fascinating and devastating, in equal measure. I keep coming across quotes and circumstances from 150 or 200 years ago that feel like … Continue reading A picture may be worth a thousand words, but it still doesn’t lead to just indictments of killer cops
The menace of the Kool-Aid mainliners
To: The Evil Instigator Ok, so I was wrong about Mitch being the Senator who would join Rep. Mo B. and object to the Electoral College slate on January 6th. It must have ticked you off but good when Mitch finally capitulated and congratulated Biden and Harris on their win yesterday and it must have … Continue reading The menace of the Kool-Aid mainliners
Biden is doing his best Biden for US
To: The Narcissist in Chief I’m betting you took a pass on watching Joe Biden’s speech last night after all the Electoral College votes had been cast and his win affirmed. I’m also betting that if you had watched you would’ve scoffed and belittled him for being conciliatory and weak, for insisting that he’ll be … Continue reading Biden is doing his best Biden for US
Who’s going to do the dirty with Mo on January 6th?
To: The Gaslighter Supreme For the record, acting normal still feels crazy. Walking the dogs, tying up droopy vines over the back gate arbor, getting some work done, thinking about what to make for dinner, making dinner, taking the yard waste out – all of it so incredibly normal and all of it so incredibly … Continue reading Who’s going to do the dirty with Mo on January 6th?
Acting normal feels crazy
To: The F*cking Lunatic in the Oval Office I closed my letter a couple of days ago with the idea that we need to accept that we have no idea where the bottom is and I don’t see any reason to revise it. Yes, yesterday I invoked righteous, courageous mere mortals who’re stepping up for … Continue reading Acting normal feels crazy
We have no idea where the bottom is
To: The Scariest Clown of Them All I’m sure there’s a boatload of yucky stuff percolating just below the surface, but so far this morning it’s been rather quiet on the aboveboard news level so I checked your daily schedule to see what you have on tap for the day. As it turns out – … Continue reading We have no idea where the bottom is
0202 PMURT says it all
To: The Lame-a** Hot Air Machine Dude, have you no pride? Any? Even a tiny bit? Seriously, what the hell are you doing calling Kemp again, trying to get him to throw you Georgia? It’s done. Move on. Stop it. You look like a fool even if you’re still able to milk your peeps for … Continue reading 0202 PMURT says it all
America’s most dangerous arsonist
To: America’s Most Dangerous Arsonist Well, we watched the 2-minute Twitter-clip distilled from your “most important speech” ever and I’ll tell you what – it didn’t even occur to us to try and hunt down the full 46-minute original. Maybe if we were really, really good (masochistic) Americans, we would have gone ahead and borne … Continue reading America’s most dangerous arsonist
Naughty and nice (to the right POTUS)
To: The Backwards Santa Just one more full month minus one day of you and yours and then we’re truly in the homestretch to Inauguration Day. I’m guessing, though, that if March 2020 felt like a year, December 2020 is going to feel like at least three years. It’s a buckle up and hunker down … Continue reading Naughty and nice (to the right POTUS)
