Tue, 2025-04-01 20:00 +0000

Party of Crime Should Probably Stop Committing Them B4 The Midterms

George Orwell’s novel 1984 provides us with the political wisdom: “those who control the present control the past and our future.”  Thinking back to the nineties, I ask, “Should treason have been the reason for the Clinton Impeachment?” Monica Lewinsky was the scapegoat in the Senate-conducted kangaroo trial, while the Senate ignored President Clinton’s alleged ...
