JD Vance recently found himself in the spotlight, and not for anything commendable. He applauded a woman’s deranged outburst at a polling station, where she hurled insults—calling a poll worker a “d*ckhead” and telling him to “suck her c*nt.” Rather than condemning this behavior, Vance celebrated it as “patriotic.” I find this response deeply troubling and reflective of a broader, unsettling trend in today’s political landscape.
The situation raises the question of what it means to be a patriot in today’s America. Vance’s support for this chaotic display of disrespect is emblematic of a mindset that perceives confrontational behavior as virtue.… Continue reading
I found myself reflecting on a deeply unsettling event that unfolded recently—a man was charged after he physically assaulted a 69-year-old poll worker who merely reminded him to remove his MAGA hat. The incident strikes me as both disturbing and emblematic of a broader trend in our current political climate, where the line between passionate belief and violent confrontation seems to blur more every day.
The gravity of such an attack cannot be overstated.

This man didn’t just lose his temper; he instigated an act of aggression that ultimately reflects a disdain for both the law and the very democratic process many claim to cherish.… Continue reading

The disrespect and lack of decorum displayed by certain elected officials is not only embarrassing but also dangerous for the functioning of our government.
MTG’s attempt to undermine AOC’s intelligence is a classic case of the Dunning-Kruger effect, where someone with limited knowledge or ability overestimates their skills. It’s evident that MTG lacks the substance to engage in meaningful discussions, resorting instead to personal attacks and superficial jabs.
The fact that MTG targeted Jasmine Crockett’s appearance, specifically her “fake eyelashes,” speaks volumes about the pettiness and insecurity of certain politicians.… Continue reading
When I heard President Biden’s response to Senator Katie Britt’s SOTU rebuttal, my first thought was, “Wow, that was kind of him.” Biden’s comment, “I thought she was a very talented woman,” seemed to be the most gracious version of a southern “Bless your heart” response. But then, as I delved deeper into the context of Senator Britt’s speech, I started to understand the subtle shade in Biden’s words.
Senator Britt, a first-term senator, decided to take aim at Biden on issues such as high prices at the grocery store, the situation at the U.S. southern border, and crime in cities – issues that are not directly controlled by the Executive Office.… Continue reading
