The Day After

by Bob Cesca WASHINGTON, DC – I can’t stop thinking about the people of Ukraine. Imagine having zero say in an election thousands of miles away – an election that will determine whether your country will be taken over by an authoritarian kleptocrat after so many of your friends and family have been killed in the effort to fight back.

Fascism, Democracy, and the Price of Bacon

Oct 24, 2024 | thebanter.substack.com | Bob Cesca

by Bob CescaWASHINGTON, DC – I’ve been saying for a while now: this election is about fascism versus democracy. And we can now say as a matter of factual reality that Donald Trump is a fascist who admires Adolf Hitler. After hearing and reading confirmation from three different named, on-the-record sources, let there be no doubt how he plans to govern should the nightmare scenario come to pass in a couple weeks.

Two Weeks -- Donald Trump is using the McDonald's stunt and the 60 Minute attacks to make sure the news media isn't focused on his enemy within threat and his refusal to show up on 60 Minutes. MAGA is so proud of the McDonald's photo op. Former Trump official Dan Coats says Putin is blackmailing Donald. Jim Mattis agrees with Mark Milley. Where are Donald's medical records? The Arnold Palmer story is silly season politics. Democrats are looking strong in the early vote and Kamala leads in most polls.

'Putin First': Trump Gave Tyrant Covid Tests While Americans Were Dying

Oct 10, 2024 | thebanter.substack.com | Bob Cesca |Ben Cohen

by Bob CescaWASHINGTON, DC – By now we’ve all taken at-home COVID tests. For many of us, it’s a particularly stressful 15 minutes waiting for that second line to appear – or not. We also remember a time when home tests didn’t exist. We’d have to wait in line to use pop-up testing locations in parking lots using special machines – machines that during most of 2020 were scarce, not nearly enough to adequately handle thousands of new daily cases in the United States.

In Need of Clean Underwear -- Buzz is preparing for Hurricane Milton. The climate crisis will make monster hurricanes more frequent and deadly. For the thousandth time, it was Donald Trump who raided FEMA funds to spend on building cages for children. Donald went full fascist, accusing immigrants of having bad genes. Revelations from Bob Woodward's new book. Donald donated scarce COVID tests to Putin -- for his personal use. Some good news about the polls and the outcome of the election.
Coach Walz Was The Sleeper Winner Of The VP Debate

Oct 3, 2024 | thebanter.substack.com | Bob Cesca

by Bob CescaWASHINGTON, DC – There’s only one thing anyone remembers from the 1988 vice presidential debate between Lloyd Bentsen and Dan Quayle. We all know the story.
