Washington—where policy meets performance.

After a couple of years away, Political Absurdity is back with commentary on a chaotic landscape.

Not because we missed writing—but because the world has become far too absurd to ignore.

Who We Are And What We Are About

I’m Chris Foster — Editor of Political Absurdity — and it’s time to get back to calling things exactly as we see them.

If you’re new here, take a moment to read our original post. You will also want to browse some of the other posts in our Archive. Many are just as relevant today as when they were first published. We hope that you will agree.

The Absurdity Just Keeps Coming

Over the past few years, the political landscape has become more chaotic, more theatrical – more unbelievable than ever.

Politics has become less about governing—and more about theater.

And of course, there is nothing quite as absurd as Donald Trump. It’s safe to assume we’ll be spending a fair amount of time discussing him. (Now, maybe you LOVE Trump. That’s ok. We want you to tell us why and how ignorant we are for thinking that he’s absurd!)

But make no mistake—there is plenty of absurdity to go around. No party, no institution, and no public figure will be immune from scrutiny.

You might also be interested to know that despite our disagreement with Donald Trump, we are actually quite conservative here at Political Absurdity. Take a look at some of our previous posts like: Do The Rich Pay Their Fair Share, or The Race Card. Those posts are enough to make blood boil on the left. Still, what-ever we talk about, we try to do it in a fair way. Moreover, readers can expect to see posts from others who have opposing opinions point-counter-point style.

There’s a lot to talk about. We intend to talk about all of it. From current events to upcoming elections and our ever-changing culture, we will be following it.

This isn’t just commentary—it’s conversation. This Is an Interactive Blog

Interaction Is Our Thing

Political Absurdity has always been designed as an interactive space.

Debate is healthy. Silence is not.

Civil debate is part of what makes political discussion worthwhile, and we encourage readers to join in, challenge ideas, and bring their own perspectives to the table.

If you agree—or strongly disagree—we invite you to join the conversation. Please see the comment box below.👇

So Let’s Get Going

The world isn’t getting any less absurd.

So we might as well get back to documenting it.

We are back.

Stay tuned—there’s plenty ahead.

And, if the world keeps getting stranger, we’ll be here to call it out.
