  1. Constitutional Lawyer Robert Barnes and Larry C. Johnson: “They All Know Trump is Losing It!”


    Posted by Jerry Alatalo | April 18, 2026

    [Editor’s note: Confabulation is a memory error consisting of the production of fabricated, distorted, or misinterpreted memories about oneself or the world. It is generally associated with certain types of brain damage or a specific subset of dementias. While still an area of ongoing research, the basal forebrain is implicated in the phenomenon of confabulation. People who confabulate present with incorrect memories ranging from subtle inaccuracies to surreal fabrications, and may include confusion or distortion in the temporal framing of memories… It is worth noting that, among the many relevant topics covered and disturbing facts revealed by Mr. Barnes and Mr. Johnson, Barnes shares that Donald Trump talks to controversial far-right conservative commentator Sean Hannity every night. Please share this important, timely discussion between Robert Barnes and Larry Johnson far and wide. Feel free to share your thoughts and/or responses in the comments. Thank you very much. Peace.]

    Description: The more Trump’s show is running, the more his closest allies seem to be walking on eggshells. 100% narcissism, pure madness and hot temper — is anyone besides JD Vance even trying to bring Trump back to reality? In this episode ex-CIA analyst Larry Johnson and constitutional lawyer Robert Barnes are diving deep into serious issue – will Donald Trump still be president in a year?

  2. Modernizing Shakespeare can be bold or just awkward. Keeping the original verse while dropping it into a world of helicopters, firearms, and contemporary politics often creates more distraction than insight. Some adaptations embrace the theatrical roots and soar; others land in a strange middle ground where nothing quite fits.

  7. The weight of this sad time we must obey,
    Speak what we feel, not what we ought to say.

    [On days of political or social horror, reciting this verse to myself is what keeps me sane.]

  8. Went to see "King Lear" as performed by the actors at The Commonweal Theatre in Lanesboro, Minnesota.

    Wonderful production. Modern clothing with some actors playing multiple roles.

    They have this Friday and Saturday and a Sunday matinee closing show left. If you're in the area and can afford the money and time it's well worth it.

  23. King Lear is acknowledged as a difficult role to play. Gene Kahane discusses his journey to wear the crown of one of Shakespeare's great characters. See him perform with the Foodbank Players over the next two weekends.

  24. Best article I’ve read on Biden

    Joe Biden Leaves the Stage

    “An analogue that immediately comes to mind for Biden at this dramatic moment in his and the nation’s life is John of Gaunt, in “Richard II,” the deeply patriotic, yet superannuated and out-of-touch grand old man who, on his deathbed, delivers a matchlessly beautiful speech in praise of the England he has known and of the values he fears are passing.”
