America’s Government is the Most Corrupt, Arrogant, Incompetent, and Just Plain Stupid in the World

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

Pictures on the internet of Republicans celebrating the end of the longest government shutdown in history yesterday, made me both sick and angry.

These old, ignorant, insipid, and hypocritical mostly white men, are far dumber than I thought. The shutdown was completely unnecessary and the only reason it happens every couple of years is because they want to play political games. You cannot celebrate a disaster you caused.

The ”shutdown” is another first for the American government. No other nation in the world allows something like this to happen.

The truth is, all three branches of Trump’s government were enjoying themselves. They continued to receive fullJ pay and benefits while the men and women who actually work on Capitol Hill were struggling to pay their rent or mortgage. Speaker Mike Johnson allowed the members of his House to take a 43 day vacation. His refusal to convene the House was based on his worship of demagogue Donald Trump whose fear of being exposed as a pedophile is growing.

However, I am even more angry with eight cowardly Democrats who surrendered to Trump and his Nazi Party. They abandoned millions of men, women, and children who will no longer have access, or be able to afford healthcare.

I am even more angry because both of my state’s Senators caved and allowed Trump another unfair victory over real Americans. I will remember the names Catherine Cortez Masto and Jacki Rosen when the run for reelection.

The American people have many enemies in 2025. Beginning at the top is your illegitimate president, who is not an American. All members of Congress don’t care about you, they care about winning elections. Six members of the Supreme Court continue to take a shit on the Constitution and your rights guaranteed by the First, Fourth, Fifth, and 14th Amendments.

There is no “justice system” in America. Only the super-rich and powerful are protected by the law. You and I will be severely punished for our crimes, while Trump and his oligarchs receive a slap on the wrist or no punishment at all.

Our military leaders support Trump’s Unconstitutional actions and therefore his war on the working class. I can only hope and pray that the Pentagon will lose another war. They’re very good at it.

We know you cannot trust law enforcement. All agencies charged with upholding the law are by necessity, fascist. This includes the military.

All corporations are the enemy of working-class Americans. They are godless institutions which value money more than human life. They are the only reason for the current “Greedflation” harming most Americans.

All television news agencies are owned by billionaires. They lie constantly and protect Trump because he helps them avoid paying any taxes. Their “on air personalities” are millionaires.

So, who will fight for us? No one other than yourself, your family, and your friends and neighbors who share your suffering.

Your enemies are rich and powerful. However, we have a much more powerful weapon than all the nuclear missiles in the world combined. We can still vote. As long as we have that right, we can force the 546 losers in Washington to leave Capitol Hill forever.

Today, I offer my support for the candidate I hope will become our president in 2028, or before. You know her name. She will fight for all Americans and ignore the demands of Trump’s 902 oligarchs. She will move America forward and join all other developed nations. America will once again be a country who keeps its promises. There will be liberty and justice for all, regardless of ethnicity, color of skin, sex, sexual preference, choice of religion, or economic status.

Her name is Alexandria Ocasio Cortez.

Join me and allow hope to come alive.
