This is a long and, heartfelt response to a readers comment regarding my earlier post, “Unprecedented: Trump Indicted!” The key point, as noted in the sub-head of this post:, “Soros-backed, Soros-funded, Puppet-Master Soros, might be modern expressions of antisemitism, but they are just new ways of showing how history repeats itself,” is something that all of us should take to heart. I encourage comments and a dialogue.

Unprecedented: Trump Indicted!
Commentary (with a little ‘News with a Twist’) Try as they might, Trump supporters refuse to “Keep Calm and Carry On”* *Actually, they didn’t try very hard The Trump indictment announcement, and the knee-jerk GOP outrage at it, got me thinking about the words used in describing Trump supporters’ invectives. Why are all these “hair-on-fire”Continue reading “Unprecedented: Trump Indicted!”

Taking a break from Trump, DeSantis and the MAGA crowd…
Commentary …Around the Block talks musical theater…with a slight Trump detour I couldn’t resist writing about. How about a change of pace from the usual Around the Block topics? Frankly, I’m Trump’d, DeSantis’d, CPAC’d and MAGA’d out. And based on the number of views of my last post, “I’m a MAGA, she’s a MAGA, he’sContinue reading “Taking a break from Trump, DeSantis and the MAGA crowd…”
I’m a MAGA, she’s a MAGA, he’s a MAGA three!
Commentary GOP pol’s defense of the “indictment and arrest” of Trump is stunning, particularly given that there hasn’t been an indictment, let alone an arrest. As recently reported by the major media, including the one and only Around the Block, based on his post on his own social media site, Truth Social, ex-president Donald TrumpContinue reading “I’m a MAGA, she’s a MAGA, he’s a MAGA three!”
Trump Claims His Arrest Is Imminent and Calls for Protests, Echoing Jan. 6

TheContinue reading “Trump Claims His Arrest Is Imminent and Calls for Protests, Echoing Jan. 6”

CPAC, which stands for “Contemptible People Acting Cuckoo” claims to be the third-ranked PoliticalContinue reading “Around the Block’s “The CPAC Report””
Re: Herr DeSantis and Around the Block
Clarification/Commentary In my earlier post, “Herr DeSantis and his Reichstag, (er Legislature) and ministraten, (ur toadies), are at it again!” https://around-the-block.com/2023/03/07/herr-desantis-and-his-reichstag-er-legislature-and-ministraten-ur-toadies-are-at-it-again/, I included the following paragraph: Since arguing that reader comments would not qualify as “fair-market value” in a court of law (but what a great “Law and Order” episode it would make), I’m asking you,Continue reading “Re: Herr DeSantis and Around the Block”
Herr DeSantis and his Reichstag, (er Legislature) and ministraten, (ur toadies), are at it again!
Commentary Gauliter Jason Brodeur, aka Florida State Senator Jason Brodeur, just introduced the “Information Dissemination/ Blogger Registration Bill.” And I don’t know whether laugh, cry or cheer(!?) As reported by NBC News: A Republican state senator in Florida has introduced a bill that, if passed, would require bloggers who write about Gov. Ron DeSantis, hisContinue reading “Herr DeSantis and his Reichstag, (er Legislature) and ministraten, (ur toadies), are at it again!”
