Bernie Sanders is Right, and the American People Know It

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

The term is “Democratic Socialism.” Read the definition and think about the biggest problems most Americans face today, and ask yourself if it makes sense.

[Democratic socialism is a political and economic ideology that advocates for a decentralized, socially-owned economy operating within a democratically controlled political system. It seeks to dismantle corporate power, shift resources away from profit-driven motives toward social need, and empower workers in their daily lives.”]

This IS the basic intent of our Founding Fathers: the people should have a voice in everything happening in our nation’s capital. The people support the change. Look at the results of yesterday’s New York primary elections.

FROM CAPITALISM TO THE CURRENT PLUTOCRACY: MOST AMERICANS HAVE BEEN FORGOTTEN

From 1789 through the end of the 2j0th century, America has been a capitalistic society. America’s largest corporations have controlled the economy and therefore the future of our nation’s population for far too long.

Unions were created out of a need to ensure the working-class fair treatment, including a livable wage and benefit;, healthcare and retirement funds. Greed dominates the boardrooms of our country’s richest companies, proving the old adage, “money is the root of all evil.”

In 2017, a plutocracy replaced capitalism. With Trump  corporate America received a tool with great power. Your illegitimate president has two masters in the 21st century: Vladimir Putin and 989 billionaires/oligarchs.

BERNIE SANDERS OFFERS HOPE TO EVERY AMERICAN

Bernie Sanders, the Independent Senator from Vermont, offered all Americans hope with an idea which should have become a reality in 1789 when the Constitutional Convention ended its efforts to create a new nation.

Over the last 45 years, our government began to rule over the American people. They no longer served their only purpose, to care for the needs and wishes of every citizen in our nation.

Transparency no longer exists on Capitol Hill. To prevent our people from learning about corruption and incompetence within our federal government, they use the same lie to hide the truth: “for reasons of national security.” They ignore the fact that we are America. They enjoy lives of luxury and privilege at the pleasure of the American people.

One, entire political party, is owned by special interests and refuses to care for the men and women who elected them.

America may not have a “king,” but it does have a tyrannical dictator: Fuhrer Donald John Trump.

Aileen Cannon: A Corrupt Judge Appointed by a Lifelong Criminal

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Aileen Cannon is a federal judge, appointed by Donald Trump. She has been charged with one of the most important cases involving Trump’s life of crime; his theft of classified documents when he was evicted from the White House on January 20, 2021. Yesterday she gave Trump a gift by delaying his upcoming trial. The events which followed prove that he violated the Espionage Act of 1917. He is also guilty of lying to the FBI, a federal crime. Before the raid on Mar-a-Lago, when they discovered boxes of national secrets hidden throughout the millionaire’s playpen, he claimed that he had returned all of them. TRUMP AND HIS SUPPORTERS: LIES, MISDIRECTION, BASELESS ATTACKS You might have noticed that Trump, his failed party, and his supporters constantly lie about everything. There is undeniable proof that the only attempted fraud in the 2020 election can be attributed to Trump supporters. The 91 indictments against Trump are not a “witch hunt:” I have ...

The Real Victims in the Trump Saga

Image
  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump’s defense strategy has changed, slightly. He claims that all of his legal battles are founded in political strategy, created by his enemies. He is playing the role of a victim. I guess part of Trump’s decline in mental acuity is a severe loss of memory. He appears to forget that many of the crimes he is accused of began long before he made the mistake of seeking the presidency. Others, including his insurrection on January 6, and stolen classified documents are actions witnessed by every American. We are not falling for your bullshit, Donnie Boy. THE REAL VICTIMS A brief look at Trump’s history reveals a life of crime. From bribing public officials, and refusing to pay contractors, to allegations of physical, sexual assault, the orange buffoon left a long trail of victims. As your illegitimate president, he violated the basic human rights of thousands. According to medical experts, Trump’s failure to take timely action to prevent an oncom...

In the Most Diverse Nation in the World, DEI is the Right Thing to Do

Image
Why is Trump determined to crush any efforts to implement a policy of DEI in American business? Simple. He is a Nazi and the leader of the white supremacist movement in America. He was raised to believe that whites were the persecuted race and men and women of color were attempting to take control of our nation. Trump’s idols are the worst men in history, including Adolf Hitler, Vladimir Putin, and the Cown Prince of Saudi Arabia; Mohammad bin Salman. He studied Hitler’s speeches every night. It is true that none of this can be proven. However, several individuals claimed that Trump’s father, “Fred Trump,” attended KKK rallies. What is undeniable fact involves Fred Trump’s real estate empire. Rental agents employed by Trump’s apartments were instructed to place a large red “C” at the top of any applications submitted by men and women of color. Trump worked for his father in these buildings after he received his diploma, obviously purchased by his father, from Wharton Business College. ...
