  • The tragedy and lost opportunity that was the Trump Administration

    President Donald Trump is leaving the Office of the Presidency exactly as he came in, unapologetic, obstinate, and hated equally by Republicans, Democrats, and the media. The funny fact is he was perhaps the most malleable of all people to hold that office in the last 200 years. Here was a man interested only in…

  • Media didn’t get what they wanted so they said it happened anyway

    I watched the so-called “riot” and “coup attempt” yesterday live as it was happening. I suspect thousands, if not millions, of people around the country and the world were watching as well.

    I think we may be on the verge of a new wave of independent media. We had a previous wave and it gave rise to websites, blogs, and news aggregators. Then there was a great consolidation where large corporate publishers bought up some of the most influential sites. Many of those sites and bloggers became…
