Justice in America is Just Another Bad Joke and a Fading Memory

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart My wife and I were watching television on January 6, 2021, when our show was interrupted by the always disconcerting message, “Breaking News.” Donald Trump walked onto a makeshift podium. I almost changed the channel. I cannot listen to the old, obese, mentally ill man. He is clearly several bricks short of a load. However, for the next three hours we watched what came to be the “darkest day in American history.” I learned later that not only did Trump lie about the results of the 2020 election, he, a few of his aides, and leaders of several Neo-Nazi groups had planned and organized an attempted coup at the Willard Hotel over the last several weeks. Trump executed the insurrection from that podium as we watched the unthinkable happen. OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS, JUSTICE PREVAILED After the end of the violent attack on our democracy, arrests and trials began to happen in our federal courts. Eventually, about 1,600 fascists were convicted for various crimes related t...

Trump’s Very, Very Bad Decisions

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart No one in history has made more bad decisions than Donald John Trump. After working in his father’s real estate business for several years, Fred Trump gave his son multiple properties whose estimated worth was $413 million dollars in the early 1970’s. However, they were not in Manhattan. Trump sold those successful buildings and invested in what he dreamed of. First, big mistake. Without investments from Russian oligarchs and the Saudi Royal Family, Trump would have been penniless in the 1990’s. Trump was unfit to be involved in any legitimate business. His only choice, another bad decision, was to cheat on his taxes and lie about information on loan applications to save his failing empire. TRUMP’S CHOICE TO BECOME INVOLVED IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR In June of 2015, Trump stood before the television cameras inside Trump Tower and announced his intention to win the Republican Party’s 2016 presidential nomination. Another big mistake. Although he defeated the other 16 ...

Trump’s Most Recent Farce Offers Irrefutable Proof that He is the Antichrist

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart To any American who chooses to believe Trump’s lies and deny facts, you should read the Bible. Trump is indeed the persona or person refereed to as the Antichrist and defined by Jesus in the New Testament. [. In the NT, references are made by Christ to false Christs who shall arise at the end of the age (Matt 24:24). In addition, Christ constantly referred to Satan as the enemy of God, and in one sense antichrist. This is seen in the temptation of Christ by the devil (Matt 4:1-11; Luke 4:1-13). Also in the parable of the wheat and the tares, Christ identifies the sower of the tares as the devil (Matt 13:37-39). Christ seems, however, to have anticipated that there would be a specific fulfillment in one person of the antichrist concept when He stated, “for the ruler of this world is coming” (John 14:30). Similarly Christ said, “I have come in my Father’s name, and  you do not receive me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive” (5:43).] BLASPHE...

Richard Nixon Ended the Un-American Military Draft: Trump is Bringing it Back

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Millions of uninformed Americans continue to believe that Richard Nixon was our nation’s worst president. They are severely mistaken. History will prove that Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush, and Donald Trump are the there worst in history, in that order. In 1973, a Republican President, Richard M. Nixon, signed a law rescinding the mandatory draft which forced young men 18 years of age and older to serve in wars declared by their government. In 2015, Trump said: “I love wars, even the nuclear kind.” He will be remembered as a draft dodger, and for calling our men who died in WWI “suckers and losers,” asking: “what was in it for them?” I’m sure you are a little surprised that the orange buffoon pretending to be your president offers his support to reinstate the unconstitutional military draft. AN UNFAIR AND ANTI-AMEIRCAN PROCESS The draft was never popular in the United States. Its original purpose was to be used only in times of national emergency. It became extre...

The Pentagon and Trump Lost the Iran War, Failing to Accomplish a Single Justifiable Goal

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump claimed his primary goals for his unilateral decision to invade Iran remain toppling Iran's government, better known as regime change, weakening Iran's military, security and nuclear capabilities and its regional influence, as well as supporting Israeli interests. Only one goal has been achieved: Trump gives his full support to his long lost twin, Benjamin Netanyahu, and the Israeli Army. For Trump, this is nothing less than another failure. For the American people, it is a costly error in judgment. Three-quarters of all Americans oppose any military action in the Middle East. TRUMP REMAINS A MAN DESPERATE FOR RELEVANCE AND A SINGLE SUCCESS IN A LIFE DOMINATED BY FAILURE Trump failed in the private sector for more than 40 years. Only by cheating on his taxes, and accepting assistance from Vladimir Putin and the Saudi Royal Family saved his business “empire.” His presidency was the least effective in American history. Between 2017 and 2021 his only ...

More Proof the Pentagon is Incompetent and not Worth the Money

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The Pentagon: what is it good for? Apparently, absolutely nothing. Our military leaders live in the past and dream about what might be. They are out of touch with the real world, including their overrated “expertise” related to waging wars. Where is DOGE when we need it?. Fact: our military leaders have lost every war since WWII. Their entire organization is incompetent and wasteful, underserving of an annual budget reaching nearly one trillion dollars. Trump wants to raise it to 1.5 trillion dollars. Watchdog groups have confirmed that 50 cents out of every dollar goes to waste. Many of their expensive toys simply don’t work when used in modern warfare. ANOTHER LOSS IN IRAN IS IMMINENT, AND OUR SOLDIERS SERVING ABROAD ARE IN GREAT DANGER What upsets me the most is the fact that our military “leaders” are willing to accept orders from a self-admitted fascist and a draft dodger. Trump is not concerned about the loss of American lives, or the fact that his war is ...

The Impossible is Possible: Trump 2.0 is Much Worse than the First

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart On November 8, 2016, the worst thing which could happen to America became a reality. The least qualified, least loyal American became your illegitimate president. Over the next 10 years the world learned that Donald John Trump is a lifetime criminal, a sexual deviate and predator, a man with below average intelligence, a failed businessman, and continues to suffer from a lifelong mental illness known as malignant narcissism. I’m sure that all Americans hoped that Trump learned from his many mistakes when he won his second rigged election on November 5, 2024. Hope is all we had. Events over the last 15+ months prove that Trump 2.0 is far worse than the first. FOR TRUMP, THE CONSTITUTION’S ONLY PURPOSE IS AS OLD, ROUGH TOILET PAPER Constitutional violations flow from Trump like water from a faucet. After six corrupt members of the current Supreme Court, Amy Coney Barrett, Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch, Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, and John Roberts, gave Trump ab...

Pentagon Loses Wars, Wastes Money, and Proves its Incompetence in Iran

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Some facts about the current leadership in the Pentagon. Our military leaders have lost every war since WWII. However, each year Congress increases the Pentagon’s budget, although it was clear that they wasted 50 percent of their previous budget attempting to create the “ultimate weapon,” regardless of futility and waste. In 2026, the Pentagon received $961.6 billion dollars. However, the worst was yet to come. COMMITTING WAR CRIMES AND VIOLATING THE UCMJ I grew up watching every John Wayne WWII movie ever made. They increased my already profound feelings of patriotism. However, today’s military leaders are not actors, and their actions are far from noble. First, an important fact. The Pentagon is not bound by law to obey the orders of their Commander-in-Chief if those orders violate the Constitution or the Universal Code of Military Justice. Trump and Hegseth’s murders of more than 100 passengers on speed boats off the coast of Venezuela, are actions of nothing...

What Caused the Demise of the Democratic Republic?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart First and foremost, massive corruption is the reason the federal government of the United States is dysfunctional and irreparable in its current state. But who or what allowed such a level of corruption to become the norm in Washington D.C.? Number one is why our national motto has changed from “e pluribus unum,” to “profit before people”. ONLY ONE MAN CAN BE REMEMBERED AS “THE PEOPLE’S PRESIDENT” In 1932 the greatest President in America’s history was elected by the people. Big business had a stranglehold on America’s working class after the Great Depression of 1929. Franklin Delano Roosevelt fought for all Americans until he died during his fourth term in 1945. His policies improved the quality of life for the working class and allowed big business to take care of itself. Without FDR the only perfect law would never have been passed. He signed the Social Security Act in 1935 and today, in the 21 st century, most older Americans rely on Social Security for mos...

As Trump Violates the Constitution with Every Breath He Takes, It’s Only Right that the Constitution Takes Him Out

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Waging war without Congressional approval. Using our nation’s military to control and disperse protests. Exceeding his powers with the firing of government employees who were charged with investigating his crimes of treason and his many violations of the Espionage Act. Attempting to suppress voting rights. Ordering the investigation of private information of thousands of Americans. Incarcerating and murdering immigrants and American citizens without due process. Ignoring the 14 th Amendment with attempts to remove citizenship from tens-of-millions of naturally born citizens. Removing the Constitutional rights of Black Americans, Hispanics, and Muslims. These are just a few of the many Constitutional violations committed by you illegitimate president. ACTIONS COMBINED WITH ILLITERATE AND RAMBLING SPEECH CONFIRM TRUMP’S MENTAL AND PHYSICAL DECLINE Trump was impeached twice between 2017 and 2021 for two of his many Constitutional violations. Trump 2.0 is destructi...

Is the National Debt More than 170.3 Trillion Dollars?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Your government is the most corrupt in the world. It is also the most incompetent in history, refusing to perform the jobs for which they were elected. That said, a watchdog group claims that the Washington Mafia is hiding the truth about our national debt. Although it is reported as 39 trillion dollars, this group claims that the actual number is 170.3 trillion dollars. TRUTH IN ACCOUNTING CLAIMS THAT YOUR GOVERNMENT FAILS TO INCLUDE ALL OF THE COSTS INCLUDED IN THE DEFICIT [As of Sept. 30, 2025, the U.S. government had only $6.1 trillion on hand to pay for $176.3 trillion worth of incurred and promised liabilities, Truth in Accounting reports.] The following are a few of the debts unreported by your corrupt government. [Within that number, projected Social Security benefits for all Americans who have entered the workforce amount to $54 trillion, total Medicare benefits will cost $74.5 trillion, and military and civilian retirement benefits will be $15.5 trilli...

“I Love Spending Other People’s Money”

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart In 2015, as Trump held one of his first hate rallies, he told his cult, “I love war, even the nuclear kind.” He also told the truth for one of his very few times in his then 69 years: “I love spending other people’s money.” He’s doing a damn good job of wasting your tax dollars in 2026. TRUMP CLEARLY FAILED EVERY ECONOMICS CLASS HE FAILED TO ATTEND It was our third President, Thomas Jefferson who said: “Never spend your money before you have it.” In 2025, America’s income was about 5.23 trillion dollars. The national debt rose to $38 trillion. Trump’s War is costing taxpayers more than one billion dollars each day, and there is no money in the national treasury to cover that huge waste of taxpayer contributions. Do you think the super-rich, who benefit financially from wars, should pay their fair share? Trump is demanding Congress approve a 2027 budget of more than 1.5 trillion dollars. None of it will go to the American people, A huge part of that unfathomable ...

“Kill ‘em All”

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I am a proud, lifelong pacifist. There are no “winners” in a war or any form of physical combat. Everyone loses, and no one can prove me wrong. However, two mentally deranged white men are eagerly murdering thousands of innocent men, women, and children in what is being called “Trump’s Iran War.” THE VIOLENCE BEGAN ON THE COAST OF VENEZUELA Trump and his brother from another mother, Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth, supported by an incompetent and fascist Pentagon, began murdering passengers on power boats racing along the shores of Venezuela. They claimed justification based on an unproven assertion that these boats were transporting illegal drugs. Nothing has ever confirmed this old adage more accurately: “when you assume, you make an ass out of you and me.” Trump is not intelligent enough to gaslight our nation’s people as he nears the age of 80. The mainstream media will not report the exact number of those murdered by missiles fired from a U.S. Navy ship, bu...

Someone Tell the Fat, Old, Fascist Stinking up My White House to Keep His Diseased Little Hands Off My Right to Vote

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart From the time statistics were kept, the percentage of attempted voter fraud is .012 percent. With very few exceptions, all of these efforts were stopped before the votes were counted. After the historic results of the 2020 election were posted, Trump’s own Election Czar, Chris Korebs, told the press: “the 2020 election was the safest and most secure election in history.” Trump immediately fired him for telling the truth. After an investigation into the 2024 election, it is clear that voting by mail is much safer than voting on machines located in polling facilities across America. At least two or our nation’s most credible cyber security agencies claimed that Russian hackers accessed the voting machines in all seven swing states in the 2024 election, and once again Trump’s victory was illegitimate, rigged by Vladimir Putin. THE TRUTH ABOUT TRUMP’S EFFORT TO CEASE VOTING BY MAIL A fact your government and the mainstream media doesn’t want you to know is that when...

Trump’s Little Brain is Rapidly Deteriorating: What Will Trump’s Nazi Party Do to Save America?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Our nation is in a serious battle to save its existence. One old, obese, mentally deficient man has been supported by the former Republican Party, now accurately labeled the American Nazi Party, must decide to support his goal to become an all-powerful dictator who is determined to achieve world domination, or preserve the United States of America. WHERE AMERICA STANDS TODAY Every American must accept the fact that Trump’s affliction with malignant narcissism began early in adolescence. He was removed from his family home at the age of 13, and sent to a military boarding school. It is perfectly clear today that his lack of parental guidance and influence is responsible for the mentally challenged old man who is destroying the very core of what being an American meant to me and millions of others who were raised after the end of WWII.   DESPERATE EFFORTS FOR RELEVANCE AND IMPORTANCE When a young man or woman is abandoned by his parents during adolescence, he ...

Want to Be Part of the Biggest Class Action Lawsuit in History?

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Is it a war, or not a war? More importantly, is it Trump’s war or America’s war? Nowhere in American law is there a definition of “war.” However, the invasion of Iran can be defined, and to the average American, Trump’s unilateral decision to invade Iran was a declaration of war. Republicans on Capitol Hill refuse to call his decision an act of war. If it is a war, Trump must be impeached. This is a clear violation of the Constitution which reserves the right to declare war to Congress. If it isn’t a war, and Trump is wasting billions of dollars of taxpayer money, he must repay all 340 million Americans for his singular decision to attack a sovereign nation without provocation. It appears that the American people could take part in the biggest class action lawsuit in history. TRUMP MUST PAY FOR HIS BAD DECISIONS, DECISIONS WHICh ADVERSELY AFFECT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE For the American people, inflation, or “Greedflation,” is escalating rapidly. Ga...

Trump Must Pay for His War: Literally

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump’s invasion of Iran is both illegal and immoral. Most Americans oppose another unwinnable war in the Middle East. Trump made a unilateral decision to attack Iran based on lies and misinformation. The Constitution means nothing to Trump: only Congress can declare war. This war has already claimed the lives of more than 1,000 Iranian civilians—including 200 children—and 13 U.S. service members. This reckless and immoral war, which has driven gasoline prices up roughly a third to an average of $3.98 in the United States, cost $11.3 billion in the first six days alone. As of today, Trump has wasted more than 25 billion dollars of taxpayer money in an attempt to annihilate every Muslim in the nation of Iran. ONCE AGAIN, TRUMP HAS NO PLAN TO END THE ATTACKS ON IRAN: HE IS ABOUT TO PUT “BOOTS ON THE GROUND” Trump is completely incompetent. He has no idea what he is doing and no plan for how long his deadly attacks will continue. Make no mistake about the facts. Th...

A WORLD UNITED: DUMP THE TRUMP

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump has accomplished many firsts. However, none of them are beneficial for the people of our country. The truth is, Trump is not a man, and possibly inhuman. He is the Antichrist risen straight from hell to destroy the once ‘most respected nation in the world.’He enjoys murdering innocent people and inflicting pain on anyone in our nation who remains loyal to their country and the Constitution. Yesterday, March 28, 2026, one of the largest protests in our nation’s history  took place in all 50 states and in every Congressional District. However, the “No Kings” protests were not exclusive to America. There were protests around the world. Men, women, and children carried signs with “Dump Trump” written on them as they marched in the streets wherever they lived. I HAVE BEEN CRITICIZED FOR COMPARING TRUMP TO HITLER: I HAVE BEEN VINDICATED MANY TIMES Trump’s first trophy wife, Ivana, told her friends that her husband read Adolf Hitler’s speeches every night bef...

Lombardo is Lying Again

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Joe Lombardo is the current Governor of Nevada. He is unfit for office and another Trump sycophant. He is up for reelection in November and has been placing expensive and fallacious ads on television, paid for by Trump’s oligarchs. He lied about his “accomplishments” in healthcare and reducing the cost of single family homes and apartment rentals. He is now doing the same about education in the Silver State. NEVADA HAS SOME OF THE WORST SCHOOLS IN THE NATION Fact: “Nevada ranks as the second least educated state in America.” Most jobs in Nevada are minimum wage or slightly higher, and those jobs do not require more than a high school diploma. Education has seldom been a priority for most of our state’s leaders. It is no secret that Las Vegas is our most populated city. It is also no secret that the University of Nevada at Las Vegas is one of the most poorly rated institutions of higher learning in the nation. The University of Nevada-Reno is a more respected ins...
