"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Gregory William Robert Fulchino, R.I.P.

The blogger known as Bob Belvedere died last Friday at his home in Tewksbury, Massachusetts. Back in the day, circa 2009-2012, when I was a road warrior on the campaign trail, I’d speak to Bob by phone whenever I was in that area, covering first the Scott Brown campaign for Senate and later the various […]

CNN and the Ukraine ‘Crisis’

Today, mainly out of curiosity but also perhaps revealing a deep-seated masochistic tendency, I switched my office TV to CNN, where today there were three main stories: (a) the walls are still closing in on Trump, (b) the sentencing of the cop who accidentally shot Daunte Wright in Minnesota, and (c) ZOMG THE CRISIS IN […]

Early Front-Runner Emerges for 2022 ‘Media Gaslighter of the Year’ Award

Corporate PR Coochie-for-Hire Exits Praising CNN’s ‘Journalistic Integrity’

Totally stolen from Ace, this statement by adulteress Allison Gollust just boggles my mind at so many levels I don’t know where to start.

Jewish Candidate for Louisville Mayor Survives BLM Assassination Attempt
