Last updated on: May 1, 2022 at 11:01 pm By Kermit Zarley

Husky Spaniard Jon Rahm, the budding superstar and 2021 U.S. Open champion, lead wire-to-wire this week and today won the PGA Tour’s Mexico Open at Vindanta at the Vidanta Vallarta Golf Course in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. He shot a 2-under par 69 today to win by one stroke over three players: Kurt Kitayama, Brandon Wu, and Tony Finau.

Trump Should Carry an Umbrella Due to his Flying Fruit Phobia

Last updated on: April 30, 2022 at 7:55 pm By Kermit Zarley

The media has been having a heyday with the Trump revelation this week about him being worried about being pelted with fruit by protestors at his political rallies. Include me in that media since I wrote this week, “Trump Says Fruit Is ‘Dangerous Stuff.'” That’s what Trump told a lawyer in a deposition that he sat for last October concerning a lawsuit against him. Trump said that in one of his political rallies in 2015, thus early during his political... Read more

Ukraine War Will Now Be a Big Gun Fight

Last updated on: April 30, 2022 at 3:27 pm By Kermit Zarley

War is awful. But sometimes, it is necessary. So, as a Christian, I believe in some form of just war theory. I’m not sure of which one. But then, I’m no expert on this subject. However, I’m totally convinced that the Bible does not provide for Pacificism–the ethical opposition to violence or war. Yes, I view myself as a man of peace. But still, there is much evil in the world, and sometimes it has to be confronted with armed... Read more

Barr Warns Republicans Not to Make Trump President Again

Last updated on: April 29, 2022 at 5:50 pm By Kermit Zarley

Bill Barr–the attorney general throughout much of President Donald Trump’s four-year term–said in an interview yesterday that it would be a “big mistake” if Republicans choose Trump again for their presidential nominee, this time in 2024. The ex-president continues to hold political rallies in which he intimates that he may run for the Republican nomination in 2024. Polls show that 55-60% of Republicans still say they want Donald Trump as the Republican nominee for president in 2024. I doubt it... Read more

Trump Says Throwing Fruit Is “Dangerous Stuff”

Last updated on: May 13, 2022 at 8:12 am By Kermit Zarley

In the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, a civil investigation of financial wrongdoing of the Trump Organization is going on. It was just revealed yesterday that former U.S. President Donald Trump sat for a deposition for it last October in which he expressed his disdain for throwing fruit, saying it is “dangerous stuff.” Thus, it seems to be another one of his several phobias besides the main one–being a clean freak. The occasion was a discussion about what Trump had said... Read more

Putin Threatens the U.S. for Arming of Ukraine

Last updated on: April 27, 2022 at 12:27 pm By Kermit Zarley

As Russia’s unprovoked aggression against its democratic neighbor Ukraine intensifies, Russian President Vladimir Putin is threatening the U.S. for its arming of Ukraine. He says the U.S. is thereby fighting against Russia in proxy. But it’s not just the U.S. A total of 40 countries are now coordinating arms shipments to Ukraine in its heroic effort to try to stave off Russia, often depicted as a “bear.” So, if Putin accuses the U.S. of fighting Russia by delivering arms to...

Russian Orthodox Patriarch Kirill Surely Knows God Doesn’t “Slay the Righteous with the Wicked

Last updated on: April 24, 2022 at 11:01 pm By Kermit Zarley

Moscow’s Patriarch Kirill, head of the Russian Orthodox Church, is a prime enabler of President Vladimir Putin’s War in Ukraine. Kirill blesses the Russian military forces as they then invade the innocent and democratic neighbor, Ukraine, to destroy the place for the purpose of annexing it to Russia. Not only that, Kirill has said of Putin’s leadership that it is “a miracle of God.” Putin and Kirill, together, say this warm, which Putin designates as a “special military operation,” is...

Did President Trump Have a Conflict of Interest about Infrastructure?

Last updated on: April 20, 2022 at 10:04 am By Kermit Zarley

Republican Donald Trump first campaigned as U.S. president, in 2015-2016, with a platform which asserted that as a non-politician and businessman, he would shake up things in Washington that would result in a better economy, among other things. In 2020, one way in which President Trump attempted to do that was to nullify certain environmental laws having to do with infrastructure under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) passed by Congress in 1970, legislation which was signed into law by...

How does Elon Musk’s Asperger Syndrome Relate to Twitter?

Last updated on: April 18, 2022 at 12:17 pm By Kermit Zarley

I am sort of a fan of Elon Musk. I’m also an investor in Tesla. But I admit that Mr. Musk sometimes gets me upset and worried. Because of it, I’ve sold and later repurchased Tesla shares in my investment portfolio a few different times. Nearly a year ago, on May 8th last year, this CEO of Tesla and SpaceX appeared on Saturday Night Live on TV with his mother who used to be a model. At that time, Elon... Read more

Last month–in the court case in which President Donald Trump’s attorney John Eastman refused to turn over 101 emails to the special House committee investigating the January 6th riot and events leading up to it–federal Judge David Carter ruled that the emails had to be released to the committee. Eastman, who had claimed executive privilege but was denied, had been a prime proponent who had engineered the coup to stop Congress’ certification of the Electoral College process that day, thus...
