    Let’s Send Hearing Aids To All Rightwing Officials

    Columnists Jim Hightower - 0

    Here’s my suggestion for stopping the ultra-right-wing loopiness coming out of the mouths of Republican officials: hearing aids. I’m convinced that the wacko blatherings of Rep. Matt Gaetz, the ravings of the Q-Anon cult, former President Donald Trump’s tantrums and so many others are the result of a tragic neurological disconnect. This affliction lets their […]

    With Israel At War, Our House Is Not In Order

    Columnists Jamie Stiehm - 0

    The world took a terrible turn for the worst this week. The terrorist attack that shocked Israel turned a night of dancing and revelry on a kibbutz into murder, blood and civilian hostage-taking.

    Israelis have likened the brutal assault from Gaza to the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor. At Dawn We Slept was a title of a book about that intelligence failure. As Israel investigates the complacency that left it open to a bloody invasion, Americans must ask themselves, Are we also sleeping? Americans, like Israelis until a […]

    Bribery, Bad. Campaign Donations, Good?

    Columnists Jim Hightower - 0

    What amazes me about outbreaks of bribery among high government officials is not just the level of greed involved, but that the take is often so cheesy. For example, there seems to be no end to the ongoing saga of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas peddling his position and prestige to right-wing corporate titans for […]
