The First Month of Hell, also Known as the Trump Return.

We’re nearly to the end of February, but already the Trump Misadministration has broken our democracy like Miley Cyrus’s ‘wrecking ball’, with an attempt to freeze government funding for programs such as Medicaid, Pell Grants, Veterans Benefits and USAID, mass deportations-or as I honestly see them, bloodless ethnic cleansing-of the immigrant population in the country, and the surrender of our…

The Civil War Has Begun

Its been just over 24 hours since Joe Biden bid farewell and boarded the helicopter to depart from the White House for the last time, shedding decades of public service and leaving us in the hands of a convicted felon, fascist dictator, and traitor. Already Donald Trump – who will never earn the respectful title of ‘Mr President’-has caused a major shakeup, passing executive orders forcing…

Its Finally Over

There will now be a year and a half free of political/campaign ads. But this is where the good news ends.Its finally over. American democracy-flawed though it was, was finished off. Its finally over. Reproductive rights no longer exist. Its finally over. LGBTQ+ rights are about to be stripped away and the LGBTQ+ either rounded up and executed, or forced to flee abroad. Its finally over. The…

A Refresher For Those Voting For The First Time, Or A Reminder of What MAGA Is Really About.

For many new voters, this year is important as the very first time they will cast their votes for President of the United States. But for everyone, this election will be important for the simple reason that the choice we make will determine whether America will have a future bright and full of promise, or a future in which all but the most fanatically loyal will be driven into exile, arrested,…

Biden Withdraws, Harris steps up, Trump Panics

In what has already thus far been a tumultuous 2024 campaign, things took a major turn in the wake of two big events. Roughly two weeks ago, Donald Trump was nearly taken out by a lone gunman from the rooftop of a building close to the stage where Trump was giving a speech, in Butler, Pennsylvania. The other event was the announcement that after much wrangling, and soul-searching, Joseph Biden,…

Trump Verdict Provokes Call for Civil War

Just last week, in what was considered to be the most graphic of the four trials facing former president/current frontrunner Donald Trump involving falisfying documents to cover a payment made to an adult film star, he was found guilty by a court of law of all 34 counts, which could carry a prison sentence. While the hearing on his sentencing will not take place until next month, the outrage from…

SOTU, Trump National Committee and "Embryos Are People"

Several days ago President Joe Biden gave his fourth-year State of the Union address to a bitterly divided Congress. In many respects it was a progress report on how his administration has achieved many notable things for the country, and in many ways it served as a major re-election campaign. It became clear, however, even before the President made his way to the podium, that he would spar with…

How Hunter Biden Lives in the Minds of MAGA......Rent Free

The new year had barely gotten a good start when MAGA, the terrorist organization which has hijacked the Grand Ole Party and turned it into a vehicle for Trump Worship, was once again in pursuit of something to stick on President Joe Biden in order to justify the unjustifiable impeachment many in the organization have been seeking. This time, the target is Hunter Biden, his surviving son. This…

An Early Prediction for 2024-With Scenarios For 2025

You read that correctly. Despite there now being officially 7 days left until the official end of 2023, I have chosen to outline what are my predictions for the coming new year. Now to be clear, my predictions are not guaranteed to happen as life throws many changes our way. My predictions in the fields I choose could either happen fully, partially, in bits and pieces, or not at all. Further,…

A Dire Warning For America

Its Election Season once again. Republican candidates who at one time numbered 13 have now been reduced to 6. On the Democrat side, two vie for the nomination along with the current incumbent, Joe Biden. As always, there are also independents who are running, such as former Democratic candidate turned independent Robert Kennedy, Jr and Jill Stein. Of course, along with Biden, the other name…

The Generation Gap Will Destroy America

Some time ago, I made an op-ed in which I criticized the ‘Boomer’ generation for wishing to stifle the potential of Gen X, Gen Y, Gen Z and Post-Mileniials by clinging to policies which worked in the ‘Ozzy and Harriet’ days but no longer work in the ‘Squid Game’ generation. As much as I wished the heavy criticism I threw at the Boomers had delivered a wake-up call to force them to realize that…

MAGA Brings Down The House, Literally

If you’ve been following the news, then what happened last Tuesday should come as no surprise. But for those who choose to get their news from their crazy MAGA relatives, or completely strangers whose only common trait is their fanatical devotion to Donald Trump, is the big announcement: Kevin McCarthy is no longer Speaker of the House. In what is definitely a first in American history, the…

"Let It All Burn" MAGA's Quest To Destroy America

We’re now just hours away from what is looking like a major government shutdown. With the Senate unable to break the impasse and the House bitterly divided, the likelihood of a last-second reprieve is so unlikely that to give it a percentage would be disrespectful to every statician living or deceased who’ve ever walked the face of the Earth. Republicans-specifically the domestic terrorists…

The Biden Impeachment or How Kevin McCarthy Lost His Balls

Just yesterday, after considerable pressure from the extremist MAGA terrorists who have been posing as congressmen and congresswomen since 2020 or even earlier in some cases, Speaker Kevin McCarthy finally bowed down and announced an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden over alleged crimes which may have been committed by his son Hunter going back to the elder Biden’s time as Vice…

Project 2025: A Wakeup Call To America

This election season will be a season defined not only by the continuing drama of Trump resisting the various criminal charges against him-charges which have led in many cases to his being removed from ballots in a few states (numbers which might grow as this situation unfolds), and the attempts by both the other candidates and even those not running for President of the United States to gain the…

Time For Republicans To Either Put Up Or Shut Up!

So just days ago, Donald Trump was indicted for the 4th time in his life, after Fulton County, Georga DA Fani Willis announced a grand jury had met and deliberated over what charges to indict the former president on. Among others, the list includes efforts to rig the voting machines in Coffee County, a phonecall to State Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find 12,000 votes”, and harassing…

With Indictments Comes The Calls For Civil War

Three days ago, the most serious of indictments finally began for disgraced ex-President Donald Trump. He appeared in a Miami courthouse Tuesday afternoon, where he was faced with 37 charges relating to the classified documents he had spirited to Mar-A-Lago, including nuclear secrets and plans for a US invasion of Iran. These documents had been exposed to individuals who lacked the necessary…
