 Greedflation: less content, less quality, higher prices. All corporations are eveil, some are just greedier than others. America is a plutocracy, and the dream is dead. Op-ed by TheWieseOldFart

Fascism has returned: Trump and Putin are seeking world domination. Our nation's people and its economic future  are being destroyed by the Orange Buffoon. Fuhrer Donald Trump is the only danger to world peace in the 21st century. Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart  

Article 5 of the NATO charter is the only reason there has not been a WWIII. Putin's lifelong goal is to end NATo and then America. Trump wants to end NATO. Think about it. Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart  

I have switched to Word Press, under the headline,"The Truth With no Restriction" Please followm me, the truth still lives here Pp  

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Here are a few of the promises Trump made during the 2016 and 2024 campaigns: none of which he kept. In fact, Trump 2.0 is 100 times worse than the first. PROMISES MADE, PROMISES BROKEN Trump told his supporters: “I know the best people, and I will have the most qualified administration ever.” This would be funny if his “people” were human and cared about their country. The orange buffoon promised the American people that he would get “criminals off of our streets, including rapists and murderers.” He continues to pardon the worst of the worst, including the murderous 1600 who invaded the Capitol Building on January 6, 2021. “I will only detain and deport the worst criminals who are in our country illegally.” Donald John Trump. ICE is kidnapping anyone who is clearly not pure white, including American citizens. Trump swore: “on day one I will end Greedflation.” And: “on day one I will end the invasion of Ukraine.” My wife and I are spending more on groceries and...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Any American citizen who watched the horrific events on January 6, 2021, and is honest with themselves, is fully aware that Trump committed treason. He planned and organized the insurrection at the Willard Hotel in D.C., and executed the violent attacks while standing just outside of the White House. In any other nation in the world, he would have been executed on that very day. Another “only in America.” Our laws have never applied to the rich and the powerful. I will never stop thinking about those three hours for as long as I live. A CORRUPT SUPREME COURT ALLOWED TRUMP TO BECOME A DICTATOR Six corrupt Supreme Court justices granted Trump total immunity, giving him powers rejected by our Founding Fathers. Trump will also never be punished for violating the Espionage Act when he illegally removed a large number of national secrets from his former temporary residence on January 20, 2021. The highest Court in the land recreated America on that day, making it a na...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart As a political writer, I have covered Trump since 2015. For more than ten years, I have informed my readers about the “real Donald Trump.” I have found nothing which might offer a positive or even patriotic side of the old, obese, ignorant man defiling our White House today. As disappointing as this is, it is the truth, and I kept one promise for more than ten years: the truth lives here. WHEN THE PRESIDENCY IS INVOLVED, AGE IS A FACTOR Trump, his party, and the late-night television shows discussed President Biden’s age ad nauseum. However, these same or similar comments have not been directed towards the orange buffoon pretending to be your president today. On June 14, Trump will become an octogenarian. He is far too old to lead a country or even a Boy Scout Troop. Three weeks after we mourn his birthday, I will have completed 80 years on the planet. I guarantee you that my mental acuity far surpasses that of your illegitimate president. MEMORY AND THE ABILITY...

Dear Readers Google owns the site I use for my blog. Sadly, Google's executive branch supports the worst man in the world, and continues its efforts to censor and block the truth I offer all of you about the orange buffoon. I will never surrender to fascism. If this continues, I will change the provider to and honest and American company. Thank you for your support and please don't give up on America James Turnage/THEWISEOLDFART  

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Fox News began broadcasting in 1996. The story claims that billionaire newspaper magnate, Rupert Murdoch and former Republican strategist, Roger Ailes, decided to create a television news network devoted to the conservative side of politics. Some of this may be true, but I believe the inspiration began in the 1980’s. Rupert Murdoch is all about the money, and the original idea came from the most popular television broadcasts of that decade. TRASH TV In the 1980’s, daytime talk shows dominated the ratings on weekdays. The phenomenon likely began with Phil Donahue. He was the first to put a microphone in an audience member’s face. He was followed by Sally Jessy Raphael, Rikki Lake, Montel Williams, Geraldo Rivera, Maury Povich, Jerry Springer, Jenny Jones, Oprah Winfrey, and others. No longer were the men and women on stage celebrities, they were guests who fit into the “topic of the day.” Those topics ranged from overeating disorders, to more salacious situations...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart When I wrote my first article about the harm a Trump presidency would cause the American people in 2015, the first thing I learned about the orange buffoon was how poorly educated he was. The second was a revelation that he had a very low level of intelligence. I also had suspicions about his mental acuity, which were soon confirmed. Early in 2017 dozens of reputable psychiatrists offered their joint opinion that Trump was afflicted with Malignant Narcissism. When he was awarded the presidency in 2016, his first actions surpassed my greatest fears. No one could have imagined the level of destruction one man could create. However, one year into his second illegitimate presidency, he more than tripled the damage done to our nation during his first four years. Prior to his huge loss in the 2020 election, Trump and his puppet, Moscow Mitch McConnell, destroyed the credibility of the Supreme Court. They added three unqualified justices who promised to support the pol...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The life of a human being is short. It is important that we live each day to its fullest. When we lose our earthly bonds, all that remains are those who remember us, and hopefully a few accomplishments to remind our loved ones of a life worth living. The saddest thing I can imagine is being alive for 60, 70, 80 or 90 years, leaving the living behind, and having done nothing of value for which we will be remembered. ONE MAN’S PITIFUL LIFE STORY This is the story of one such man. He had opportunities to accomplish great things, but chose to waste his life seeking personal pleasure and power over others. Donald John Trump was born into a life of great wealth and extreme white privilege. From birth until he received more than 400 million dollars from his father and began his own life in the world of New York real estate, he was given anything he wanted. He was never required to work for his desires. In just a few years, he lost everything. He was never happy with su...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Nothing irritates me more than listening to someone brag about their intelligence, and then make a huge mistake by attempting to say something, proving that they are “dumber than a bag of rocks.” This perfectly describes Trump and his entire administration. I am definitely not the only person in the world who is aware of how dangerous our nation has become. Whether you are a citizen, an immigrant, or a tourist, America has become a nation whose entire environment is composed of anger, extreme hatred, and escalating violence, most arising from within its own government. UNDER TRUMP, OVERSEAS TOURISM IS IN STEEP DECLINE Trump has intentionally placed a sign on every port of entry into the United States for all to see. It has a simple message which anyone can understand: “You Are Not Welcome Here.” Over Trump’s first year in office, tourism is down by 9.4%. That translates into a 29-billion-dollar loss for America’s economy. THE WORST ECONOMY IN MODERN HISTORY ONLY...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Before he exposed himself as the leader of America’s Neo-Nazi movement, we knew that Trump was in control of our nation’s white supremacists. Although historians and sociologists confirm the facts about white privilege in America, Trump and his racist supporters deny facts. This is something for which they have real talent. I am a white man, and sometimes that makes me a little ashamed. Born just three weeks after your illegitimate president, my mother gave birth in the world of white privilege. The difference between us is obvious: Trump was born into enormous wealth, while my family was poor. However, we never experienced the existence of a “second America.” I am aware that millions of Americans choose to be ignorant, believing that Trump is not a fascist who hates all non-whites, believes women have but a single purpose, doesn’t believe in God, but believes that Christianity is the only true religion, all Muslims are the enemy of America, and homosexuality is...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart “If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it’s a duck.” If you see something with your own eyes, it is reality, and cannot be questioned or denied. Trump is an idiot, and nothing proves this fact more than when he attempts to convince the American people that what they see is not real, and what he tells them is the only reality. The term is “gaslighting.” ["Gaslighting" (often misspelled "gaslighting") is a manipulative tactic where someone makes a victim question their own reality, memory, or sanity, creating self-doubt, confusion, and dependence, often to gain power, by denying events, trivializing feelings, or twisting facts. It's a form of psychological abuse, making the victim feel "crazy" or like they are "overreacting".] Trump’s biggest problem is that he thinks all Americans are as dumb as he and his followers choose to be. With our birthdays just three weeks apart, I would challenge the orange buffoon t...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Immediately, without an investigation, without discussing the tragedy with any member of a legitimate law enforcement agency, Kristi Noem stood before the television cameras and claimed that the victim who had just been shot and killed by a member of ICE was a “domestic terrorist who had attempted to run over the agents with her vehicle.” Two videos and statements by eyewitnesses rebuked her rash and unverified statement, calling the death of 37-year-old Renee Niclole Good a murder. NO ONE IN POWER CAN BE TRUSTED IN THE 21 ST CENTURY Personally, because I have learned not to trust anyone in our government, and all law enforcement agencies, while placing my trust in regular Americans, like me, I immediately called “bullshit.” Noem is another paid liar whose only true function is to protect her Fuhrer. Here’s what I know from what I read, not from watching the ‘boob tube.’ Trump, his Nazi Party, six members of the Supreme Court, the Pentagon, and 902 oligarchs ar...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Growing up in the 1950’s and 1960’s, our family watched television. Not having money for anything other than necessities, this was our only form of entertainment. I remain addicted today. On Monday through Friday, we watched the evening news. It was only one-half hour, and hosted by the great Walter Cronkite: “The most trusted man in America.” This is why it saddens me to tell you that CBS has become part of the “Magaverse.” JUST ANOTHER RIGHT-WING PROPAGANDA MACHINE First, CBS’ parent company, Paramount, owned by Trump’s oligarchs, ended Stephen Colbert’s late-night contract. Although his show was rated #1, he told the truth about Trump and his oligarchs, and that was a mortal sin. More recently, they hired a Trump sycophant, Bari Weiss, as their editor-in-chief of its news division. She revealed her plans for the future of CBS News immediately. Ms. Weiss cancelled stories on “60 Minutes” which were offensive to her Fuhrer. When Trump agreed to an interview on ...

 

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart In case you have not read one of my articles before, I must tell you that Trump, and anyone who is forced to spend time with the orange buffoon, suffers from a lifelong illness called “malignant narcissism.” If you read the definition, it describes him without exception. This disease is visible to anyone who listens to him for five minutes or longer. Trump constantly reveals an extreme level of arrogance, and exhibits a highly inflated ego. SIGNS LEADING TO A PROBABLE STROKE Between 2017 and 2021, White House aides described numerous occasions when he would burst into uncontrollable rage, usually occurring when someone disagrees with his destructive agenda, or when a federal judge rejects one of his many, many executive orders. You may have noticed two things during his current cabinet meetings and other State events. Trump falls asleep when he is not speaking, and his advisors are required to offer him effusive praise frequently, although it is always baseless ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart First, a reminder for our government: “this is our country. It belongs to us. You work for us and hiding the truth proves that you are lying about everything.” It is totally fair to judge your government by its own words and actions. When the men and women we elect lie to us, all trust is gone, forever. TRUMP LIES CONSTANTLY Since June 15, 2015, Trump told more than 100,000 lies in front of the television cameras, at his hate rallies, and on social media, likely while sitting on the toilet in the middle of the night. His biggest lie, a lie he knew was entirely false, claiming victory in the 2020 election continues. I find it unbelievable that anyone, any voter, in America is so weak-minded they ignore the decisions of more than 60 state courts, and his own, stacked Supreme Court. 2026: MORE LIES AND THE LEAST QUALIFIED ADMINISTRATION IN HISTORY There is no possible way Trump could have chosen a less qualified staff for his second, illegitimate administration. Ma...
