I Despise All Law Enforcement in the 21st Century, But Those at the Federal Level Have Become Trump’s Personal Gestapo

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Yes, this old man does not respect or trust law enforcement by any name in the 21 st century. Both our military and law enforcement are fascist by design and necessity. However, in the 21 st century, they have forgotten their purpose and have surrendered their integrity, principles, and morals to the Fuhrer defiling our White House. Criminals, thugs, racists, and bigots: these are the components of a street gang known as ICE. They have the support of federal law enforcement agencies to harass, physically assault, and even murder innocent men and women in service to Donald Trump. HOW MY LIFE HAS CHANGED I was raised by my grandparents and one very special uncle. My mother was a single parent. To care for me and my younger brother, she worked as many hours as she could every week. Fortunately, we lived near her mother and father. I was taught to respect my elders, and every person in authority. That included the police. After my mother finally divorced my abusiv...

Are Republicans Racist? If You Don’t Know the Answer to This Question, You Are Not Paying Attention

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Irrefutable facts: Donald John Trump is the leader of America’s Neo-Nazi movement:  the current administration is focused on restoring white supremacy:  America is a racist nation and therefore never will be a “great nation.” Prove me wrong. I don’t want your “belief’s,” I need facts, and I have them. The current leader of what was once the “Republican Party” was raised in New York by a racist father. He learned his lessons well. Raised in an atmosphere of white privilege, his father’s message was clear: being a member of the Aryan race, he was above everyone else, and laws did not apply to him. He was the only person who mattered. Donald Trump believed his father, and became a criminal at an early age, although he was never punished for his crimes. After he received a diploma from Wharton Business College, which he obviously did not earn, he went to work in his father’s business. Fred owned several large apartment buildings in New York. Fred’s primary ...

It’s Official: America is Suffering from the “Florida Virus”

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Every morning I read the news on my laptop. It is an overused complaint that it is always bad, never good. However, in 21 st century America, It is mostly about situations which are just plain moronic. Everything I read could be easily repaired, shouldn’t have happened in the first place, or about issues which are not in reality, news. There was a time when this type of reporting originated primarily from the weird sate of Florida. However, it is clear that the “virus” has spread to all 50 states. TODAY’S STORIES WHICH ARE NOT “NEWS” One of Trump’s most recent disasters is his redesign of the National Mall’s reflecting pool. When it was completed the first time, algae made the water turn “puke green.” Then patches of blue paint began to float to the surface. It was clear that the company paid to remake the pool had no idea what they were doing. Breaking another rule, this from the Department of Parks and Recreation, Trump refused to get three bids for the proje...

Nazis Ruling Over America?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart All members of the Trump Party, most notably Stephen Miller and Elon Musk, and Trump’s enitre incompetent and corrupt administration, are without question loyal soldiers in Trump’s Nazi regime. But they’re scared. In recent Democratic primaries, a growing number of “Democratic Socialists” won elections. This clearly demonstrates the growing desire of our nation’s people to retake control of our corrupt and incompetent government, led by the worst old man in the world: Donald John Trump. TRUMP’S PRIMARY SUPPORTER IN THE 2024 ELECTION REVEALED HIMSELF Although Elon Musk and his family were never formal members of the South African Nazi Party, it was clear that their beliefs were aligned with Hitler’s own and those who continue to worship him today. When Musk spoke to the American people and offered a clear and undeniable Nazi salute. What most of us believed was confirmed. “Black Voters Matter” issued a statement we should all pay attention to. “We are deeply dist...

One Place Trump’s Name Should Have Been Years Ago

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Throughout his destructive and wasted life, Donald Trump has caused enormous harm to thousands of men and women. As a lifelong criminal, a convicted felon, a man I watched commit treason on January 6, 2021, and violations of the Espionage Act on January 20, 2021, history will remember him as our country’s most dangerous criminal. Trump’s lifelong mental illness, malignant narcissism, created a need to feel relevant. Therefore, he put his name on every edifice and product he could. Buildings, products, such as Trump Airline, Trump Water, Trump Steaks, Trump Shoes, Trump Bibles, Trump Telephones, and every other cheap and hastily built commodity made in China you might imagine. As your illegitimate president, he had his name placed on an airport, a highway, and the Kennedy Center. None of these were deserved. If he could get away with it, he would rename the White House the “Trump House” HAVING COVERED TRUMP AND RESEARCHING HIS DISGUSTING LIFE, I WANT TO SEE HIS N...

How Dumb Are We?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I ask a question; “how dumb are we.” The “we” includes an uninformed and therefore ignorant electorate which decides who will represent the people in Washington. Sitting on the right side of the aisle are the dumbest and most corrupt men and women in our nation’s history. It could be worse. “Be thankful we're not getting all the government we're paying for.” Will Rogers LATEST STUPIDITY FROM THE RIGHT Recently New Jersey passed a very sensible law which could save thousands of lives. Assault rifles have a single purpose: to kill a large number of humans in a few seconds. With gun violence escalating in the U.S., the New Jersey state legislature banned the sale of AR-15’s to regular citizens. A group of right-wing-leaning federal judges struck down the law. There are more mass shootings in America than days on the calendar, and apparently, that’s acceptable. Real presidents attempt to inspire our nation’s citizens. Not the orange buffoon. On Thursday even...

Same Old Lies and Bullshit from the Orange Buffoon

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Did you waste part of your life watching the worst public speaker in history talk about himself and how badly he has been treated on Thursday evening? I did not. I chose not to waste my time for the same reason I have not watched a television news broadcast since November 9, 2016: I refuse to allow someone to lie to me. When I read about Trump’s latest rants, the first thing I noticed is that it was basically the same speech he made in June of 2015. It was all about him and how great he is, but everyone is trying to hurt him. He is always the victim in his personal, fictional melodrama. As expected, the biggest lie he ever told was the primary focus of his boring diatribe: his fantasy world where the 2020 election was filled with massive fraud. He added a new twist, claiming that the Chinese government helped Joe Biden win the election. There is not an iota of proof that this occurred. I remember when early voting began in Northern Nevada in 2020. I drove by my ...

The Truth About Social Security and how Your Government is Gaslighting You

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart        Questions which need to be answered: Where do the funds for Social Security come from? What is an “entitlement?” Why is the program underfunded? Who is to blame? FACT: THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES IS THE MOST CORRUPT AND INCOMPETENT IN THE WORLD To learn the full truth, we must go back in time. Franklin Delano Roosevelt, “the People’s President,” was elected in 1932. From day one, it was clear that he placed the working class first. Deeply concerned about how every man and woman working in jobs which offered little or no retirement assistance, he eagerly signed the Social Security Act on August 14, 1935. To this day, Social Security is the only perfect law ever passed by Congress. This is how it was designed. Funding would not be provided by taxpayer dollars. Every employee and employer would contribute to the fund and added to the program based on the amount of money earned. When the employee reached retirement ag...

Trump’s Plan is Working: The Rich are Getting Richer, and the Poor are Getting Poorer

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump told “his people” time and time again: “I love spending other people’s money.” Over the last 18 months we learned that for once he told the truth. His tacky remodel of the White House, a ballroom no one but he wants, the destruction of the reflecting pool, and an arch will cost taxpayers billions of dollars. Add to this the fact that his many trips on Air Force One to play golf, or travel to Mar-a-Lago are a waste of more than 10 million dollars each month. MORE PROMISES MADE, MORE PROMISES BROKEN Campaign promises which were actually lies: “I will end inflation on day one.” “I will end the invasion of Ukraine on day one.” “With me as your president, there will be no more wars in the Middel East.” There is one truth, one irrefutable fact involving everything Trump is doing while pretending to be your president. His 989 oligarchs are profiting from another Trump presidency, while the average American is struggling at the grocery store and the gas pump. Trum...

America in the 21st Century: The Nation Known for its Anger, Hatred, and Violence

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart All prejudices are baseless and therefore displays of extreme ignorance. The primary reason the United States of America has never been a great nation can be found in the fact that racism and bigotry among millions of our nation’s people have never been addressed honestly or taken seriously. It is a fact that hate is a stronger emotion than love. For the informed American, it has been no secret that whatever the party on the right side of the aisle in the Capitol Building calls itself, it has been composed of men and women who are racists and bigots for more than 45 years. It is much easier to accept and understand how easy it was for Trump and his handler, Vladimir Putin, to take control of our nation’s government when we accept the fact that absolute power over this nation has been the goal of one-half of our country’s elected and appointed leaders for more than 45 years. These fascist-leaning members of the executive, legislative, and judicial branches ...

Lindsey Graham: an American Tragedy, but not What You Think

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart There was a time when I held some respect for the late Senator from South Carolina, Lindsey Grah am. Some of you might remember his close friendship with one of the greatest Republican senators in history, John McCain. They were inseparable, and frequently spoke the truth to the American people when no one else in their party would dare to rebuke the orange buffoon. However, after Senator McCain’s death on August 25, 2018, something happened to Graham’s mind. He turned from hero to traitor in less than a week. LINDSEY GRAHAM, PRIOR TO HIS HYPOCRITICAL SURRENDER TO DONALD TRUMP: A FEW COMMENTS FROM 2016 “This is not about who we nominate anymore as Republicans as much as it’s who we are. This is a fight for the heart and soul of the Republican Party,” Graham said. “What is conservatism? If it’s Donald Trump carrying the conservative banner I think not only do we lose the election, but we’ll be unable in the future to grow the conservative cause.”  “As much as...

“The Big Lie,” and Why Some Believe It Today

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart For more than 10 years, I have been telling you that Trump was a huge fan of Adolf Hitler. Before going to sleep, he read his Fuhrer’s speeches over and over again. It is also fair to assume that he read “Mein Kampf” as well. Anyone with common sense is aware that if Trump’s lips are moving, he’s lying. However, some of his lies are laughable and others are extremely destructive. His lie about the 2020 election is not only the most infamous lie he ever told, but it also remains responsible for the great divide among our nation’s people. However, Trump did not create this lie. He learned it from Mein Kampf, Hitler’s own fascist manifesto. FROM HITLER TO TRUMP WITH HATE Hitler was a master manipulator. He knew one important fact about the average person. He was aware that if he was to be an all-powerful dictator, the people would need to believe that everything he said was fact and anything which opposed his ideas and beliefs was actually misleading and false. His...

Trump’s War is Also his Biggest Folly in 80 Years

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart What do you get when you put together a mentally challenged, obese, old man, his criminal protĂ©gĂ©, and a group of toy soldiers? Another lost war in the Middle East. There’s a lesson in this story for all the uninformed men and women who continue to support the worst man in the world, Donald John Trump. What is happening to our country today is the result of choosing a wealthy, wannabe playboy to lead the most diverse and complicated nation in the world. I could have titled this story, “The Fat Man, his Brother from Another Mother, and Their Toy Soldiers.” Whatever Trump claims he is accomplishing by unilaterally choosing to wage a deadly war against Iran is a lie. The truth: Trump is the biggest loser in America’s history. He has failed at everything he attempted to accomplish. With Pete “Dumbass” Hegseth carrying out his orders, and our incompetent military brass in the Pentagon, America has lost its fifth war since WWII, and its third in the Middle East. Not o...

Is Moscow Mitch Still Alive?

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Moscow Mitch McConnell was the worst Senate Majority Leader in history. His record proves that he never accomplished a single thing in his lifetime which improved the quality of life for the average American. Everything he did was designed to enhance his personal life and increase his failing party’s power. It was Moscow Mitch who broke his own rule in 2020 and placed Amy Coney Barrett in the Supreme Court. This gave the Trump-supporting Supreme Court a super majority. With this super majority, MM accomplished his career goal. On June 24, 2022, six corrupt justices removed a woman’s right to make decisions about her own mental and physical health. Roe V Wade was overturned by a vote of 6-3. REPUBLICANS ARE HIDING THE TRUTH Moscow Mitch has been hospitalized for more than three weeks. No one can verify his condition, although some fake Republicans claim that they have spoken to the 84-year-old traitor. Personally, I hope he is no longer among the living. Like Don...

Too Old, Too Stupid, and Too Ill to Remain in Our White House

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart  After 5 years and 7 months of Trump’s destructive and illegitimate presidency, I have experienced many emotions, including anger, disgust, shame, fear, sorrow, shock, and I am ashamed to admit it, but I have learned to hate. It is unnecessary and redundant to state the fact that Trump will forever be remembered by historians as the worst president in America’s 250-year history. Not once during his time defiling our White Huse has he accomplished something positive for the people he is required to serve. His every attempt is focused on satisfying his own base desires as he violates the Constitution and attempts to destroy the core of why our Founding Fathers created the United States of America in 1789. THIS WEEK I ACCEPTED THE TRUTH Trump is the stupidest man to ever hold public office. The reason I finally accepted this fact was the realization that the orange buffoon is too ignorant to realize that many of the battles he is fighting are unwinnable. Wise m...

Everything is For and About the Orange Buffoon

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart A bribe from Qatar in the form of a new and more expensive to operate Air Force One. An unnecessary ballroom, no one wanted but Trump. A planned arch to honor the “greatest president of all time:” according to Dementia Donny. A costly and tacky birthday party pitting street fighters against each other. A huge failure labeled as the “Great American State Fair,” intended to celebrate our nation’s 250 th birthday. Now his latest vanity project, an unnecessary helipad on the White House grounds. SHITTING ON ANOTHER REVERED TRADITION The first presidential helicopter landed on the White House lawn on July 12, 1957. President Eisenhower, a real Republican President, used it to travel from Air Force One after landing at Joint Base Andrews in Camp Springs, Maryland. Using the helicopter saved two hours wasted in traffic. The aircraft was shared by the Army and the Marine Corp until 1976, when it officially became "Marine One." It has been the president’s pers...

Trump’s Ignorance and Apathy for Others Explain his Historically Low Approval Ratings

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump claims that he “has a very good brain.” That may be true, but there’s a problem: it’s also very small and of no use to an 80-year-old man. After five years and nearly seven months pretending to be your president, Trump has accomplished nothing of importance; nothing to improve the lives of 340 million people. However, he can brag about one thing: he has the lowest approval ratings of any president in history. REASONS FOR HIS “SUCCESS” How did one old, obese man come to be disliked and even hated by millions of people, not only in America, but around the world? It all began in June of 2015 and a ride down an escalator. But let’s focus on what he has done and said since January 20, 2025. From the first day of his second illegitimate term, his focus was clearly not on keeping his promises and addressing our nation’s most serious problems. Instead, the malignant narcissist concentrated on taking revenge. Trump intentionally divided our country’s people between...

I Shouldn’t Be Writing About This Shit

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Over the last 45 years, nearly one-fifth of America’s existence, our government, our leaders, have failed to accomplish anything which positively affects all 340 million Americans. Nothing proves this with greater significance than failures across the nation last Saturday. Gun violence continues to escalate across America and this situation could easily be controlled if our government had the courage to do the right thing. This was supposed to be the 250th celebration of our nation’s Declaration of Independence from England. In a normal year, Thomas Jefferson’s eloquent and heartfelt message would have been read out loud at every gathering in the country, giving every American a reason to be proud of his or her origin. Not this year: not in Trump’s America. WORDS INTENDED TO INSPIRE A NATION If these few words in the Declaration of Independence don’t make your hear flutter just a little, you have no idea what our nation was meant to be. [We hold these truths to ...

Another Failure for the Man Holding the Record for the Most Failures in a Single Lifetime

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart A celebration devoted to the signing of the Declaration of Independence, will also be remembered for a fire on the Brooklyn Bridge, a debacle in San Francisco, cancelled parades, the longest and most boring fireworks display in history, and a mass shooting on Coney Island. BEGINNING AT THE TOP What should have been a promise to renew the intent of the Declaration of Independence became another politically motivated Trump hate rally and turned a celebration into a memoriam for what America once strived to become. A few words to remind all Americans why we celebrate the 4 th of July. “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” This one sentence was a summation of the core values the New Nation would stand upon. I can understand why Trump failed to refer to the document which in...
