By David Glenn Cox It’s the story about a Pecker and a dick. About a little dick who wanted to be a big dick and wanted Pecker’s help. It sounds like something Aesop once wrote, doesn’t it? The Pecker owned “The Moron Times” aka, “The National Enquirer.” Who would have ever thunk it? American elections could be thwarted by the National Enquirer? That’s a sad commentary on this country indeed, and worthy of investigation. The catching and killing of stories are as old as the hills, that’s one thing. However, the planting of negative stories about the little dick’s little adversaries is somethi ..read more

That Thing About Humpty Dumpty

By David Glenn Cox Lest we forget, “DEWEY DEFEATS TRUMAN.” The only real threat to Joe Biden’s reelection is voter apathy. “Oh, this thing is in the bag. It won’t matter if I vote.” Now that the polls have turned in our favor, everybody wants to talk about them and rejoice. I hate to say it, but I told me so. These repeated images of Trump in court or Trump at the defense table will take their toll. What do you see in your mind’s eye these days when you read? Trump is in_________ again today? Mara-A-Lago? Forbes Magazine? The funny papers? Let’s see, five letters. I’d like to guess the puzzle ..read more

(Photo credit should read MIKHAIL KLIMENTYEV/AFP via Getty Images) By David Glenn Cox Protests on college campuses, oh man does that bring back memories. Elite students on elite campuses discovering iniquity loose in the world. Any references to the past may look the same, but only superficially. Back in the good days of moon walks and amateur pharmacology. The college protests were designed to bring OUR soldiers home from an illegal foreign war. The current protests are designed to… To what? To tell a foreign government their actions are unpopular with Ivy League college students in New York ..read more

By David Glenn Cox It is hard to say, “well there’s not that much  going on.” But it is never quite as fulfilling as it was anticipated to be. Trump in a box and unable to control the situation. Mind you, I’ll get over my own personal disappointment. But I don’t know if you’ve ever had mice in your house before. Because you’ll see one as this huge ferocious sucker with beady red eyes and vicious looking claws. Then when captured and helpless, the mouse appears so small. I guess that’s what I’m feeling right now. The frog in the shoe box, the firefly in the empty mayonnaise jar or the nin ..read more

“Less filling, tastes great!” By David Glenn Cox How bad is it? How bad could it possibly be? I mean, what’s the worst-case scenario here? Where do you turn when the golden sneakers sales tank and the Bible sales flatten out? While the profits from Trump media sink like the Titanic on that tragic April night. Like a junkie with a jones which cannot be satiated, Donald Trump needs money. Robbing Peter to pay Paul and lying to Jesus about it. Look deep and ask yourself; now, what’s the most ridiculous fund-raising scam ever to be thought of from the mind of a criminal politician? Excluding Bibl ..read more

By David Glenn Cox Trump doses while the prosecutor proposes. Sleepy Don and the nap heard round the world. The old man and the see! Enter Sandman. The day of reckoning finally comes with the first ever criminal trial of a President. (trivia question) Did Trump the mob boss glare the death stare at Alvin Bragg and Maggie Haberman? Never mind the media chatter, that’s the 9th grade Trump we’ve all come to know. If you piss him off, you’ll get some childish visceral response. But as they say, “it’s a sign of the times.” This is where we are at on the road of this epic saga. Gone are the demonst ..read more

By David Glenn Cox It is all very Orwellian with fleets of Kamikaze drones and rocket bombs. All against a backdrop of flickering yellowing historical images. This is a new kind of war. An unmanned attack with swarms of flying robot droids. Then the computers take over and plot the air defense in milliseconds, firing return interceptor missiles. The cheap droids are sent by the hundreds in hopes of depleting the air defense before the uber expensive missile time comes, infantry before cavalry. Then, straight off the pages of Orwell. Iran announces ala Big Brother in robes with a fanfare of tr ..read more

By David Glenn Cox Sometimes, just sometimes, it makes you wonder about who is minding the store. DATELINE: Palm Beach Post, “Trump codefendants want out of classified documents case,  say they had “No Clue” what was in the boxes. Oh right, I forgot. It’s the Internet that’s killing newspapers. If it were you in this situation or a close personal friend or relative, asking for your advice. What would you tell them? Would you recommend the old Sergeant Schultz routine? You put a confused look on your face and answer promptly, “I know nothing!” “I know nothing about anything! I can’t remem ..read more

By David Glenn Cox The Japanese Prime Minister stopped by Washington the other day. Just to remind us to look both ways before crossing the street. Trying to remind us, it’s a dangerous world out there and not to juggle hand grenades just for sport. He spoke to the crazy house and told them it was imperative for the US to support Ukraine. That the US needed to get off its ass and lead. As a Prime Minister, it’s his job to wonder, just what kind of ally is this? Would they ever do my country this way? Washington Republicans fiddle while Kiev burns. The Republican Party is in shambles and only ..read more

By David Glenn Cox And so, we wait. After an Israeli airstrike killed three Iranian Generals, the Mullahs vow revenge. Death to Israel and Death to America! How many times have you heard that ever popular Middle eastern refrain? A hit with a bullet. The Mullah’s using divine religious victimhood as a political tool. It always seems to happen in countries lacking food or heat or progress. “Sure, we suck. But God likes us!” “We’re defending you from the enemies who help to keep us in power! Death to Israel and death to America! Why without us, you’d be in real trouble pal. Besides, we’re doing ..read more
