A brief conversation on the way to breakfast. Someone I didn’t know approached me early this morning on my way to breakfast. He looked about 60 years old, with dark hair graying at the temples. He was dressed in a tie and jacket. He asked me if I was Robert Reich. I admitted to it. […]

Tax case settlement, charges against former FBI director, and renaming of Kennedy Center are at risk. A federal judge for the Southern District of Florida has accepted a class action lawsuit filed by 35 retired federal judges, who, in their motion, alleged that Donald Trump’s settlement with the IRS may be fraudulent and constitute a […]

He’s given up on all the “talent” except for You Know Who. Trump often confuses himself with America, and America with himself. Not surprisingly, his plan for celebrating the nation’s 250th anniversary is looking more and more like a celebration of Trump. Trump’s face will be engraved on a $250 bill. It will be etched […]

Okay, so maybe I am grouchier — but I have reason. I was driving my car yesterday, heading home after doing some errands, when someone ran a red light and just about hit me. I swerved to avoid him, then stopped my car, got out, and stood in the middle of the road screaming at […]

Trump canceled the trip of his representatives to Pakistan for talks with the Iranian delegation. Trump’s “universal soldiers”—son-in-law Jared Kushner and friend Steve Witkoff—did not fly to Islamabad. There will be no talks. However, according to Trump, this does not mean an immediate resumption of hostilities. Trump attributes the breakdown of the talks to “internal […]

Unlike the assassination attempt in Butler and the (failed) attempt in Florida, Cole Thomas Allen’s attempt to break into the Washington Hilton Hotel, where the traditional White House Correspondents’ Dinner was being held, was aimed at eliminating not only Donald Trump himself, but also the entire top leadership of the country. Along with Trump in […]

Trump’s might-makes-right lawlessness will be his downfall. If we’re not careful, it will be America’s as well. Trump’s domestic and foreign policies — ranging from his attempted coup against the United States in January 2021, to his ICE and Border Patrol excesses (including murders in Minnesota), to his incursion into Venezuela and abduction of its […]
