No. 1 was an old piece, years old, that, perhaps in the light of coronavirus and some states putting restrictions on church attendance as part of social distancing rules, has perhaps become popular with Googling wingnuts. It's about whether or not a college can discriminate, or "discriminate," against a religious organization.
No. 2, timely for the Green Party's national convention this week, and one update on the one person, was my look at convention speakers, with the main focus on Minneapolis City Councilman Cam Gordon and his being a squish in some ways.
No. 9, getting out of order, is also related to the GP convention, and wondering if the party is going to crack up over trans activism issues.
No. 3 is related to the party in the fall, with my kicking the butt of Jesse Ventura for saying he would write in his own name in November.
No. 7, to jump back out of order a bit, is related to the Green Party and my vote in the fall, the second in my pieces (so far) about Green Party censorship on its official Facebook group.
No. 4? I took Matt Taibbi to task for a screed claiming to defend Lee Fang against charges of anti-Black racism without looking at the amount of smoke that indicated at least a small fire might be present, and then going beyond that to agree with Tom Cotton and other things that smacked of his being one of the allegedly outside-the-box media stenos of the left-liberal world suddenly having a partial merger with conservativism.
No. 5? It's fun to kick Ted Rall, especially when he presents a narcissistically easy target.
No. 6, and with his belated "Masks On" order, this may gather steam in days and weeks ahead — does Greg Abbott have coronavirus blood on his hands? In case you can't guess, that's a rhetorical question and you should know the answer but here's the details.
No. 8 is my quick take on Barton Gellman's new book about Edward Snowden and whether or not Gellman can shed some light on some of the massive holes Snowden had in said book.
No. 10? The latest installment in my love-frustration relationship with High Country News.
