Are Facts and Reality Preventing a Deeper Bromance Between Vlad and Donny?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It was heart-warming to see Trump and Putin greet each other so warmly on the tarmac at Anchorage, Alaska’s, airport. It was awe-inspiring to see our fascist military roll out the red carpet for their future Commander-in-Chief. For a very short time, I believed Trump displayed more loyalty for his country than for Vlad. However, as I expected, it was simply a ruse. This pesky, old invasion of Ukraine, which was supposed to last less than a month, and has now exceeded three years and six months, keeps getting in the way of their dates. This bromance is very important to both dictators: they find it very difficult to make friends. Trump has expressed his admiration and respect for Putin between 80 and 100 times. The two evil old, white men share several inhuman traits and find in each other new ways to make the world a less safe and secure place for more than eight billion people. Both men fail to display a single redeeming quality. However, there is one huge diff...

Your Illegitimate President has Never Read the Constitution

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart On January 20, 2017 and January 20, 2025, your illegitimate president took an oath. Every word he uttered on those two dark days was just another Trump specialty: a lie. "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States". It is clear to me that Trump has never read the Constitution. It is also abundantly clear that every day he claimed to be your president, he violated the First, Fourth, or 14 th Amendments, and on some days all three at once. It makes me ill to hear the word “Constitution” come out of his mouth, and sickens me to see him hug the flag. America and the American people mean nothing to Donald John Trump. From the day of my birth until January 19, 2027 BT, (Before Trump), I knew my beloved country was not perfect, but overall, our people believed in compassion, understanding, to...

I Ask One, Fair Question: What Did Trump Offer Ghislaine Maxwell in Exchange for Hiding the Truth?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart First, an undeniable fact. The current Department of Justice is no longer independent from the executive branch. The facts prove that the DOJ, including Attorney General Pam Bondi, are tools of your illegitimate president, Donald John Trump. The DOJ and the FBI, under the control of a fascist supporter of your fascist president, Kash Patel, cannot be trusted by any true American. The only person in the world who knows every detail of how pedophile Jeffry Epstein conducted his business, and who was involved in his offers of debauchery and sexual deviance, is Ghislaine Maxwell. She was convicted of crimes related to her relationship with the most infamous sexual predator in American history, and is serving a 20-year prison sentence for her crimes. She was recently interviewed by Trump’s Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. After the meeting, she was moved to an institution known as a “country club for convicted felons.” Her response was nothing less than a huge l...

Another Failure and Another Attempt to Misdirect the Facts: This is Your Illegitimate President

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart For the last 10 years I have written thousands of articles about the greatest failure in American history. Donald John Trump failed himself and his family in his younger years, and an entire country in his old age. At the formative age of 13, his parents were unable to tolerate his behavior. They sent him to a military boarding school. The interesting fact is that it was just a few miles away from his parents’ home. While attending tha military-based prep school, Fordham University, and the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton College of Business, there are few and in most cases no record of accomplishments or failures. It’s as if he never existed. A part of this is based on the fact that as your illegitimate president, he had all of his academic records sealed. You can guess why. After Wharton, Trump worked in his father’s racist rental property business. When Fred Trump thought it was time for him to venture into the business world on his own, he helped his so...

For This Old, Fat, Schoolyard Bully, The Punishment Must Fit The Crimes

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump is a traitor, a lifetime criminal, a spoiled child who is using the Constitution as toilet paper, and spends all of his time, when he’s not on a golf course, enacting revenge on anyone who had the cojones to stand up to the brain-damaged schoolyard bully. Therefore, he must pay for his crimes against the people of the United States, and humanity in general, with life imprisonment without parole or visitation, exile to Russia, or public execution. His punishment must fit his crimes. His most recent target is John Bolton, former National Security Adviser. The FBI, like every once respected law enforcement agency, has surrendered to Trump. Once the most feared group of highly principled men and women, it is now an object of distrust, fear, and hatred. Today, under orders from the malignant narcissist, the FBI raided Bolton’s home in Bethesda, Maryland. The raid was apparently conducted without cause. The act was purely political. Another former member of Trum...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Today another group of corrupt judges offered additional proof that Trump is above the law, as if we needed another affirmation. The United States is a country without laws and the Constitution has been used for toilet paper. Today, August 21, 2025, a New York State Appellate Court struck down the decision of Judge Arthur Engoron who ordered the orange buffoon to pay nearly one-half billion dollars in reparations after he was convicted of tax fraud. Trump Corporation had long-standing policies of inflating the value of his properties when he sought loans from major banks, and deflating those same properties when filing his tax returns. The court decided that the fine was excessive. However, if Trump is truly a billionaire, which is highly doubtful, the previous decision was more than fair. This process had been established decades in the past. I use ICE as an example of how I feel about law enforcement in general today. ICE is a group of poorly trained thugs who...

Only an Ignorant President is More Dangerous than Uninformed Voters

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It is an irrefutable fact that voting for Trump was a choice to be ignorant and totally uninformed. The greatest harm Trump is creating greatly affects the people who support him, who he refers to as “basement dwellers.” “Ignorant voters of the democracies are always a great threat to the progression of humanity, simply because they give their votes to the people who look like themselves!”― Mehmet Murat ildan I remember when the second worst president in American history was running in 2000. I was working in the Northern Nevada casinos and overheard a group of rich cattle ranchers talking about George W. Bush. One remark made me laugh, and later, cry. “He’s just like us. He’s a guy I’d like to have a beer with.” I may have higher standards than most, but I continue to believe that the man or woman who leads our nation should have great intelligence and exceptional morals, ethics, and principles. This was not “W,” and it sure as hell is not Donald John Trump. I b...

What Do America’s Prisons and Hospitals Have in Common?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart You may not think that the subjects of America’s prisons and our nation’s hospitals have anything in common. You would be mostly correct. However, the one thing they share is how they affect our nation’s economy. I begin with one of our country’s biggest problems: incarceration. Currently, there are about two million men and women in our prisons and jails. The statistics, which are of far greater importance, are very disturbing. America has a little more than 4% of the world’s population, and 20-25 percent of all men and women incarcerated in the world. Even more disturbing is the recidivism rate, which is far greater than any other nation in the world. The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) reports that 66% of released state prisoners were rearrested within three years, and a staggering 82% were arrested at least once during a ten-year follow-up. There is only one reason for this tragic fact. Our nation’s prisons are designed to punish convicted criminals, not ...

Netanyahu is no Longer Attempting to Hide his Crime of Genocide

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart If you haven’t been paying attention to Benjamin Netanyahu’s crimes against humanity, here is the latest. The Israeli military has begun its plan to remove every Palestinian from Gaza, despite warnings from other countries and various humanitarian organizations. [The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) meanwhile said further displacement and an intensification of hostilities "risk worsening an already catastrophic situation" for Gaza's 2.1 million population.] I look at it this way. Hitler hated the Jews, Trump hates anyone who is not pure white, Putin hates the LGBTQ community, and Netanyahu hates Muslims. Each of these men were or are brutal dictators. Evil is real. It exists in the space where their hearts should be. America was once a nation which was proud of its compassion, tolerance, and understanding. That was when I was a younger man, not today.

Two Questions: Of Course They Involve Trump: What Else Did You Expect?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I have literally written thousands of articles about Trump. I know as much as anyone about the worst, illegitimate president in history. However, he is not intelligent, he began losing support during the 2024 campaign, he is far from charismatic, and most people find him unlikable. Trump is a convicted felon who I watched commit treason. The FBI searched Mar-a-Lago and found dozens of documents which would have convicted him of violating the Espionage Act if the corrupt Supreme Court had not granted him absolute immunity, placing him above the law. Our Founding Fathers must be shedding tears in heaven. What possible reason would anyone have for giving their precious vote to the least qualified man in history? I have questions about issues which make no sense, offer no reason why anyone would continue to support the worst man in the world. First question. What sense does it make to defund our nation’s intelligence agencies, and continue to give hundreds of billio...

Donald Trump: A Mentally Challenged, Mentally Deficient Old Man Out for Retribution

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart One thing about 2025 which was true in 2017 is the real Donald Trump. He doesn’t want to be your president. He fails to perform the job for which he was illegitimately elected every day. His only reason for seeking another term was to prevent soon-to-be charges for his many crimes. He simply didn’t want to wear an orange jumpsuit for the remainder of his pitiful and useless life. “Key responsibilities of the President of the United States include executing and enforcing laws, managing the federal bureaucracy, appointing officials, conducting diplomacy, and suggesting legislation. The President also plays a crucial role in national security and foreign policy.” Trump is focused solely on two things, neither of which is listed above: ethnic cleansing and taking revenge on anyone who opposes his unconstitutional actions. His illegal and immoral gestapo, ICE, is carrying out his orders to remove anyone who is not pure white from our country. Trump continues to harm ...

Did You Ever Have One of Those Days When You Feel Your Government is Blowing Smoke Up Your Ass?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Every morning I read the news. This morning I felt like our corrupt government was blowing smoke up my ass. Then I realized, that was what I felt yesterday, and the day before that, and the day before that. Like their fascist, illegitimate president, our government continues to lie to the American people, mostly by hiding the truth. I read a lot, and I know the truth. When our government attempts to protect Trump and themselves from exposure related to their failure to perform the jobs for which they were elected, they must be subject to close scrutiny and investigations for displays of cowardice, hypocrisy, and corruption. Then, they must be forced to leave Washington by your vote. It was during the George W. Bush administration when the unconstitutional Patriot Act and ICE were created. The Patriot Act violates the fourth and 14 th amendments. ICE has become a gang of thugs and Trump’s personal gestapo. This is the truth. I’m truly sorry you will never hear o...

It’s a Damn Good Thing We Don’t Need a Federal Government

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The truth: the American people have not had an effective and caring government since 1981. Under the Reagan administration, the government created by our Founding Fathers between 1787 and 1789 became nothing but a memory. The idea of a “Democratic Republic,” where sincere deliberation and compromise solved many of our nation’s problems, simply disappeared. What was a two-party system ceased to exist. Democrats and Republicans barely spoke to each other. The focus shifted from the people to winning elections and maintaining power. The situation is far worse today than anyone could have imagined. In 2017 it was very clear that one of Trump’s primary goals, agreed upon between him and his Russian puppeteer, was to divide our nation’s people and our government to a level not seen since the Civil War. “Divide and conquer” is Trump’s administration’s mantra. What began 38 years ago was complete. What hasn’t happened in those 38 years is a travesty. The same problems w...

Beware the Empty Wind

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The wind has a voice. Just as mankind’s voice comes from the force of his own wind, his breath, the wind consoles us or warns us about what is coming. Out here, in the west, summers are mostly pleasant. On days when the heat becomes unbearable, cool breezes frequently arise in the afternoons promising that a good night’s sleep lies ahead. Winter storms are preceded by cold winds letting everyone know that a new season is coming. Lightning and thunder in late spring and early summer are announced by strong gusts of wind. In the middle of our nation, the most powerful winds imaginable often leave great destruction in their path. However, before the tornado becomes life-threatening, the wind becomes silent; warning everyone in its path that an unstoppable force is coming. On our east coast and the Gulf of Mexico, before hurricanes invade our shores and inland areas with devastating winds and torrential rain, the wind begins slowly as the heart of the ...

Like Fox, Newsmax is a Fraud, a Falacious Right-Wing Propaganda Machine

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Lawsuits are of little concern to the super-rich. The money involved is an illusion. The victor seldom receives the designated monetary settlement, and the guilty use the loss as a tax deduction. However, it does reveal the truth. Fox News faced many lawsuits in its 29 years of lying to the American people. However, this fake news network proves my allegation that lawsuits mean nothing to billionaires. Their profits are measured in billions of dollars, and settling a lawsuit for millions means nothing. Newsmax, another right-wing propaganda machine funded by Trump’s billionaires/oligarchs recently lost what appears to be a fortune to the average American. However, for its billionaire owners, it is “chump change.” The 2020 election was historically relevant to American history. However, a side effect increased the wealth of one of the primary manufacturers of voting machines. Dominion has already won several lawsuits related to Trump’s “big lie” about the results...

A Few of the Many Reasons Trump Fears Mail-in Voting

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The 2020 election was historic. I admit that the record turnout was more of a vote against Trump than a vote for Joe Biden. However, Mr. Biden turned out to be one of the most effective presidents in modern history, most notably in his handling of Covid-19, and his extremely successful fiscal policy. Trump’s own election security czar, Christopher Krebs, told reporters that the “2020 election was the most secure and fair election in American history.” Aides claimed that Trump was also aware of this fact. His big lie was nothing less than an effort to appease his ignorant and uninformed supporters. This week Trump promised that he will do everything in his power to prevent states from accepting voting by mail in the 2026 midterm elections. Why is he so afraid of this practice? There are many reasons, but two stand out above all the rest. First, voting by mail is far more secure than casting your ballot on a voting machine. It is nearly impossible to “rig” an elec...

In Oklahoma, only “Regressives” Will be Allowed to Teach Their Children

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump’s agenda, “Project 2025,” is the opposite of progressive: it is 100 percent regressive. One by one, the dictator who is occasionally in the White House, is destroying the advances of his predecessors, both Democrats and Republicans. Remember, it was a real Republican who actually accomplished great things. Not one of his successors can claim such a huge number of positive accomplishments. Reagan, Bush 41, Bush 43, and Trump all failed miserably. [Richard Nixon's most significant accomplishments include ending U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, improving relations with China and the Soviet Union, and establishing the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). He also oversaw the first moon landing, initiated welfare reform, and signed the Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty (SALT I) with the Soviet Union.] Today’s fake Republicans oppose the EPA. Trump’s EP A A dministrator, Lee Zeldin, opposes everything the EPA stands for and is taking it apart piece by pi...

Why Trump is Afraid of Mail-in Voting

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump vows to attack states which allow and encourage mail-in voting. He has a valid reason for attempting to prevent people like me who are disabled from exercising our Constitutional rights. Voting by mail is the most secure process available. It cannot be used to rig elections, unlike voting machines. The more I read about the 2024 election, I am 100 percent convinced it was fraudulent in support of Dictator Trump. As I compare the results of all three elections, when Republicans failed to find a single candidate qualified for the highest office in our nation, there is no doubt that the voting machines in all seven swing states were hacked by Russian agents. This has been confirmed by several of our nation’s most highly rated tech firms. Two of the last three presidential elections were won by Vladimir Putin. He was successful in placing his puppet in control of the futures of 340 million people, and that future is dark and foreboding. I am unable to stand in...

If You Were a Tourist from Another Country, Why Would You Want to Come to America?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Over the last seven months, gun violence/domestic terrorism has experienced a huge increase. This happened in 2017 when Trump was enjoying his first illegitimate presidency. Domestic terrorism and mass shootings make America the most dangerous nation in the world. Add to this the end of American democracy and the fascist in the White House who is eager to place anyone who is not pure white in his growing number of concentration camps, and I ask an honest question: “Why would anyone from a foreign nation want to come to America.?” Trump is a national disaster. His policies are destroying the flourishing economy he inherited from President Biden. It is now completely clear that the Pentagon supports its fascist/Nazi Commander-in-Chief. This is sad for many reasons, but most importantly because WWII was a fight against fascism. The leaders of our military are telling the American people that the more than 407,000 men and women who sacrificed their lives to save the...
