Last week we came across an old yellow piece of paper that was stained and had holes in it that we had written about several years ago. It was titled “Winners Vs. Losers.”
A fellow I know was grousing about the past year. His birthday was coming up and he felt, once again, that this year failed to meet his expectations. He was unhappy with the year, unhappy with himself, unhappy with the fact that he'd even allowed himself to hope that 2020, of all years, was going to be better than the previous ones.
One important word during 2020 was improvise! From online and drive-in church services to curb delivery from local businesses and restaurants, people adapted the best they could during the pandemic.
House Democratic leaders are trying to keep the espionage scandal surrounding Intelligence Committee member Rep. Eric Swalwell under tight control. But it's going to be an uphill battle. Republicans are pushing harder and harder to learn more about Swalwell's relationship with Chinese spy Christine Fang. And the Democrats' strongest ally – The New York Times, which has averted its eyes and so far refused to publish even one word about the matter – can't hold out forever.
We are extremely proud of the 2020 Clinton Red Tornado football team!
Looking at reporting and discussion of the 2020 presidential campaign, has any word been misused as often as "misinformation"? In much political debate, it was used to mean "information I don't like," rather than something that was provably false. That confusion extends to a new survey of American attitudes done by Gallup and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. The survey questioned 2,752 respondents and was conducted in mid-November.
