    Do We Really Need to Travel?

    Columnists Froma Harrop - 0

    I have friends who routinely ask where I’ve traveled of late and where I plan to go next. The answer is that, except for a recent trip to New York, I haven’t gone anywhere. As for my plans for future travel, plans, yes, I have them. I plan to not travel. An insanity has gripped […]

    The Secret History of ‘Wokeness’

    Columnists Jim Hightower - 0

    In Lewis Carroll’s “Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There,” Humpty Dumpty scornfully declares that “When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean.” So, what does “woke” mean?

    Columnists Cal Hobson - 0

    I was a lowly former elected public official for over thirty years. You are among the nine most powerful Americans never elected to anything. However, when it comes to understanding my ethical responsibility compared to yours, you are a complete idiot, selfish in your pursuit of pleasures only a tiny percentage of your fellow citizens […]

    The Motown Supremes, Chicken Supreme… But the Supreme Court?

    Columnists Jim Hightower - 0

    The six-person majority of far-right “Supremes” who presently dominate America’s judicial system seems intent on demonstrating that having a seat on our Supreme Court does not mean there is anything supreme about them. Consider one bottom-line measure of character that is central to the Court’s integrity: financial ethics. This simply requires the judges to file […]
