Without questions, we don’t get answers. Amid the swirl of opinions being thrown around in today’s world, what I call a mix of news and hysteria, how often are we actually going through the process of breaking down the plethora of opinions to be able to come up our own rational thoughts about what makes sense? I try to take a current news story and present both sides in a rational way. Opinions formed? Yes. But a little better understanding of what makes sense. Ed Baxter is an award winning journalist.

He spent over thirty years at KGO Radio as well as working for the ABC radio network. Ed was the main substitute on the globe’s number program, Paul Harvey News, through most of the 1990’s.

Democrats are loudly talking about their priorities after their huge wins at the polls. But the question remains whether the party can come together enough to serve the country. The first challenge is picking leadership.
The battle lines between Democrats and Republicans have hardened. President Trump has appointed Immigration and ICE architect Steven Miller to Chief of staff. And Dems say they are going after the “Trump crime family”.
The message for Republicans coming from the midterms is the extreme dislike of Donald Trump. The caution for Democrats is that they go too far left into democratic socialism. Both parties need to tread carefully moving forward.
With the Democrats taking control of both houses of Congress, and Donald Trump being humiliated, we have to remember that there is a need for a strong two party system. The Trump cult is broken, the GOP can’t be.
Election day polling shows anger at Trump tariffs, the war in Iran and his ability to do the job. They say he is in it for himself not for the country. Will Republicans continue to back away from him now that the election is over?
Michigan Democrat Rep Haley Stevens has publicly endorsed GOP candidate Mike Rogers. This after not being invited to an Abdul El Sayed campaign event. Could this preserve Trump power? Stupid is as stupid does?
Sec Hegseth has fired another Pentagon leader. This comes as AP reports the Pentagon is underreporting the extensive damage US military bases have suffered. This while the President threatens more war. Hegseth’s nickname?
The US has cancelled the G 20 minister’s group photo. Several European leaders refused to be photographed with Russia’s foreign minister. Sec of State Rubio defines this meeting as a moment of choosing. What does that mean?
