        In the second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence, our Founding Fathers laid the groundwork for what would be the Constitution of the United States of America. “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.-“ The men who created the United States of America were in denial, ignoring their own failures to “put their money where their mouths were.” Most of them owned slaves, and obviously did not consider them equal to white men and women. When framing the Constitution between 1787 and 1789 during the Constitutional Convention, an agreement was made to protect the practice of owning slaves, primarily in the southern states. The Second Amendment was written for two reasons. First, to guarantee the availability of organizing an a...

In January of 2017 a dossier composed by former MI-6 agent Christopher Steele exposed collusion between Vladimir Putin and Trump to secure a victory for the failed businessman in the 2016 election. This information was released just days before Trump’s inauguration. However, the document could not be substantiated by Republicans and it was removed from the media. Was this another cover-up by our federal government? Not one part of the dossier has ever been disproven. Multiple investigations by unnamed individuals appear to suggest dismissing the document. However, uncovered lies from Trump and a post-election revelation seem to suggest that the dossier was entirely true. Another of Trump’s many lies throughout the 2016 campaign was exposed by Politico in 2017. When asked if he had ever met Putin, he replied: “I never met the man,” and went on to offer favorable comments about the Russian President/Dictator. The truth is, they undoubtedly met in Moscow in 1987. Trump and his first of th...

Principles, morals, respect, and trust. Every country, every nation’s leaders, and every individual in every country must possess the first two qualities and earn the latter two. Without these qualities, no country, no individual will accomplish anything of value, anything worth remembering. These things I learned from my grandfather and one of my uncles. I consider myself a good and spiritual man because I have worked hard to be the best person I can be. I am far from perfect, but my search for perfection continues at the age of 78. Education is a tool. If it is used properly, it can aid an individual in his or her search to reach higher levels of spirituality and understanding. Therefore, I believe in questioning everything. If you don’t receive answers which make sense, you should probably discard the information. Why am I writing about myself? The truth is that I am not important enough to have anything written about me. However, the most valuable part of my education has come from...

If the 2024 election results proved anything it is the undeniable fact that my claim about the vast majority of Americans voting for what they see and choose to believe on television decides who will lead our nation for the next four years. Most Americans are as ignorant as Trump who proudly claimed that “everything I need to know, I learn from television.” It’s called the ‘boob tube’ for a reason. He is without a doubt one of the most poorly educated and ignorant men in the world. “The elections are run by the same industries that sell toothpaste on television.” Noam Chomsky “I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.” Groucho Marx Over the last nine years Trump and his party have exposed themselves completely. However, it is undoubtedly a fact that either no one was paying attention, or nobody cared. I ask you to think about one fact which proves that no one claiming to be a Republican is qualified to lead our nat...

The media won’t say it. Democrats are cowards and won’t say it. Trump is not a man, he is a puppet: specifically Putin’s puppet, and has been since 1987. In 1987 the KGB invited Donald Trump and his wife, Ivana, to visit Moscow. They accepted, and spent several days in the Russian capital. In the late 1980’s Putin was a high-ranking officer in the spy organization. The next record we have is in 2013. Trump was a part-owner of the Miss Universe Pageant. He took the pageant to Moscow. A former MI-6 agent, Christopher Steele, investigated the three days and wrote a dossier describing Trump’s actions. He claims that Trump and Putin met at least once to plan the 2016 election. He also wrote about Trump’s encounter with two prostitutes which involved urination. We know that while he was pretending to be your president, he communicated with Putin frequently. Some of those conversations may have been through a secret channel created in the Seychelles Islands by Erik Prince, the bother of forme...

  What is the role of a U.S. President? Until 2017, this was what was expected from our nation’s leader. [The authors of the U.S. Constitution only sketched a loose outline of the presidency when they defined the federal government in 1787. They expected the first presidents to work out the details of the job with Congress and the Supreme Court. As a result, the first officeholders helped shape the way presidents make decisions, fight wars, work with Congress, add territory to the country, and even entertain.] Let’s begin with his personal life. Trump is a man without morals or principles. He is a registered serial philanderer, having cheated on all three of his trophy wives. It was recently revealed and confirmed that he attended parties with his “best friend,” Jeffrey Epstein, for 10 years. This proves that Trump is one of the most disgusting sexual predators of all time. Trump operated his businesses in the same manner as his marriages. He lied, cheated, and stole among ot...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart If you are surprised, you must have been in a coma for the last eight years. Vladimir Putin is once again attempting to make his biggest asset the President of the United States in 2024. In each of the last three elections Putin’s agents have been actively involved in our election process. This is an undeclared “act of war” from Putin. He is attempting to take control of our country for the second time, but no shots will be fired or bombs dropped. Nonetheless, it is an obvious effort to put Trump in the White House for a second time and finish his assigned task of destroying democracy in America. Our government will do nothing. It will allow Trump and his American Fascist Party to do as they wish. I am ashamed. [Act of war means hostile or warlike action, whether declared or not, in a time of peace or war, whether initiated by a local government, foreign government or foreign group, civil unrest, insurrection, rebellion or civil war.] TRUMP IS COMPLICIT AND WHY ...

(The True Story of the 2016 Election) Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Don’t be shocked when I tell you this, but your government has been lying to you since 2015 by hiding facts you have a right to know. This began in October of 2016 when the leaders of our government were informed by 14 security agencies that Russia was interfering in our election. However, your government hid this fact from the voting public. You might remember how long we waited for Robert Mueller’s report about collusion between Trump and Putin in the 2016 election. This turned out to be the most expensive and anticipated lie in our nation’s history. Trump’s Attorney General, William Barr, redacted/censored about 80 percent of the results, intentionally hiding the truth and the mainstream media allowed him to get away with it. It wasn’t until 2020 when a Senate report exposed the truth. Even then it was not reported on television news. This report confirmed that members of Trump’s campaign were in contact with Russian agen...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart November 8, 2016 should have been a day of celebration for every American. As the polls closed, Hillary Clinton was winning the popular vote. America would have not only its first woman president, it would have chosen the most qualified candidate in history to lead our nation for the next four years. Of course this did not happen. When the votes were counted in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan a total of less than 80,000 total votes allowed these three states to decide who would be our president. The Electoral College negated the will of the people as it did in 2000.. How did this happen? I and others were confused for weeks. However, although our government denies the facts today, a story was released and then quickly redacted about a meeting held in the Oval Office in October of 2016. The subject of the meeting was to inform our nation’s leaders about the results of an investigation by all 17 agencies of America’s intelligence community completed on Octob...

You have pledged your fealty to a traitor whose primary objective is to end democracy in America and replace it with a fascist regime.   If you are Kristi Noem, Elise Stefanik, Tim Scott, or Marco Rubio, you are an embarrassment to yourself, real Republicans of the past, and the United States of A merica .
