Note to Those So Inclined: Please Stop Trying to Kill Donald Trump

On April 25, one Cole Allen allegedly charged a security checkpoint outside the Washington Hilton ballroom where many of the nation’s most prominent politicians, journalists, and entertainers were gathered for the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, bearing both arms and ill will toward some or all of those inside — almost certainly including US president Donald … Continue reading Note to Those So Inclined: Please Stop Trying to Kill Donald Trump → - by Thomas L.

There’s a Simple Way to End the Gerrymander Wars

On April 21, a majority of Virginia voters said “yes” to a ballot measure allowing the state’s US House districts to be redrawn for the benefit of the Democratic Party. The next day, a judge banned certification of the election results, calling the ballot language “flagrantly misleading” and asserting that state legislators didn’t follow relevant … Continue reading There’s a Simple Way to End the Gerrymander Wars → - by Thomas L.

Trump: An Alternative Hypothesis

I don’t care much for politicians and their works. Political government is a stupid and evil way of doing things.
