The fossil that looked like a statue

The New Neo Posted on May 13, 2017 by neoMay 13, 2017

Reforming Obamacare through the reconciliation process

The New Neo Posted on May 13, 2017 by neoMay 13, 2017

Drudge/Trump

The New Neo Posted on May 12, 2017 by neoMay 13, 2017

The New Neo Posted on May 10, 2017 by neoMay 10, 2017

A few random articles of special interest— Take a look at the headline of this article by Matthew Yglesias at Vox: “By firing James Comey, Trump has put impeachment on the table.” Ha! That’s pretty funny. Impeachment has never been … Continue reading →

The why and wherefore of the Comey firing

The New Neo Posted on May 10, 2017 by neoMay 10, 2017

My title was a teaser. Obviously, I’m not privy to the real story of Trump’s motives in firing Comey now. But no one is, except Trump and those closest to him—and maybe not even them. But I do have some … Continue reading →
