Turns out, Trump's words about a blood bath were taken out of context. He was referring to the auto industry. (Disclaimer: I can't stomach Trump.) That kerfuffle really pissed me off. I didn't read the stories beyond the headlines about Trump's "bloodbath" quote. I just figured it was yet...

The Second Amendment Dealt A Heavy Blow By New Court Decision "Heavy blow"? Falls into the "very, very important thing happened, but hardly anyone noticed except us. Click to find out something very important." I wonder what it is. District judge says you can't have machine guns?...

I read a lot of news, and I have no doubt MSN is the worst of all of them. Agreed. I have them on my home page, but I barely count it as news. They seem to deliberately choose "outrage" topics, and miscellaneous other clickbait. Of course, that's what they intend. If I read reputable sour...

Given it's America I'd have been surprised if it wasn't true. I've followed so many that aren't. When I see "other party does something so evil you won't believe it", I generally don't believe it. But sometimes, it turns out to be true. This particular bill was collosally, wildly, bad. Us...

"New bill would convict teachers of felony, put on sex offender list for trans support" It's probably a stupid bill, but I'm pretty sure that headline is heavily misleading. Now I'll read the article. I read the article. I was wrong. It was every bit as stupid as the headline implied. The ...
