I will proudly vote for a convicted felon for President of these United States in November. Thursday's verdict-guilty on all 34 counts-was shocking but not surprising. How could it be surprising? We've known from the outset this was a sham trial in a kangaroo court, a purely political bit of theatrical lawfare intended to persecute the presumptive nominee of the Republican Party. Even after the verdict, there's a fair amount of confusion as to just what law President Trump supposedly violated....
We're approaching that time of year when gardens start "turning to squash", as Momma used to say. Yellow squash and its cousin zucchini are everywhere! They're inexpensive, filling, and complement a wide range of other dishes. One of my favorite ways to use squash and zucchini together is this simple recipe, which roasts fresh veggies into a healthy, versatile side dish. Baked Squash and Zucchini You'll need: 3-4 yellow squash and 2-3 zucchini 1 Tbsp olive oil ½ tsp salt ½ tsp...
Hunter Biden was found guilty on Tuesday of three charges related to the purchase and possession of a firearm.

He is facing up to 25 years in prison. The prosecution convinced the jury that the First Son bought a gun during a crack run, had it on him when he met his dealer the...
June 12th, 2024 was The Day The Dollar Died. It hasn’t collapsed yet, and won’t for some time. Like a wild hog, it will fight on, mortally wounded and bleeding, until it finally staggers, stumbles, then falls. The dollar is too big, too bound up in the global economy to go down to a single shot. It’s suffered nicks and scrapes these last few years, and will suffer more in the days to come, but Wednesday, June 12th was when the fatal blow landed. That was the day Russia suspended trading in do...
JUNTA is a game set in the beautiful Republica de los Bananas. Players take the roles of the heads of the ruling families of the nation, frantically trying to abscond with as much money as possible before the foreign aid runs out. Along the way they elect El Presidente (who appoints the cabinet and distributes the pesos) form alliances, lie, cheat, swindle, extort, backstab, execute, assassinate and throw the occasional coup—with the winner being the player with the most money in their secret S...
Spring is here! The weather's nice, the water is calling, and it's time to start packing those picnic baskets and coolers. In the South, that means fried chicken. No Southern outing is complete without cold fried chicken, just like no indoor gathering is complete without hot fried chicken. It's one of the essential dishes every cook needs to do well, and everyone has their own recipe and way of doing things. My Granny (great-grandmother), Momma (grandmother), and Mom fried their chicken in a...
