honest with signs of the times in the political climate today running the gamut from the downright dangerous, merely troubling, to the absurd. it is fair to ask if there is a thread connecting all of them. some kind of political philosophy driving it or whether this is just a moment for whatever reason that is ripe for almost everything and nearly anything. one example in new mexico four homes shot at belonging police say to democratic elected officials. the man now in custody and char...

tonight keeping them honest with signs other times in the political climate today. they run the gambit from the downright dangerous to the nearly trembling and absurd. its fair to ask if there is a threat connecting all of them, political philosophy of nihilism driving it or whether this was a moment for whatever reason that -- one example, new mexico, for home shot at belonging to democratic officials. the man now in custody and charged in connection with the crimes was a republican w...
