Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart All “Republican” politicians are part of what makes America a far worse country than any other in the world. I have a long list of names which prove my allegation, but let me offer a few of the most obvious: Moscow Mitch McConnell, Ted Cruz, Lindsey Graham, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Mike Johnson. None of these individuals care about you or me. Since 2017 they offered their loyalty to Trump and Vladimir Putin, ignoring the responsibilities they owe to the voters who made huge mistakes by surrendering to them their valuable votes: the only power average citizens possess. Yesterday a situation arose within the once Grand Old Party which proves that not a single man or woman on the right side of the aisle is worthy of occupying a seat in our federal government. Lindsey Graham has held a seat in the Senate since 2002. Normally, I would say that he “represented the people of South Carolina for the last 23 years.” However, in 2017, Graham abandoned his morals, integr...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart If you refuse to see the truth about the worst man in the world, from his own words and actions you know certain things about Donald Trump are very real and undeniable. First and foremost, Trump is the confirmed leader of the Neo-Nazi movement in America. Trump planned the January 6 insurrection with leaders of several Nazi groups in America. Project 2025 is a 922-page fascist manifesto composed directly from Trump’s long and self-serving rants during his many hate rallies. Secondly, Trump has zero respect for all women. Three wives have similar stories. During each marriage he had numerous affairs and an even larger number of sexual assaults. It is impossible not to believe Trump and his closest friend, Jeffrey Epstein, participated in parties where underage women were available for their pleasure. Trump is one of many old, white men who believe all women have a single purpose: to serve the needs of men. If you ever have an opportunity to visit Muir Woods in No...

In March of 2003, George W. Bush and his ignorant and over-reactive administration decided that instead of properly funding our nation’s existing Border Control, they would create a new agency, costing millions of dollars a year for political reasons. They named it “Immigration and Customs Enforcement.” However I.C.E. has become Trump’s personal gestapo, and its proper name is more apropos. It is another Republican failure I call it an “Incompetent Criminal Enterprise.” “We will only be deporting illegal immigrants focusing on criminals, drug dealers, and gang members.” Another lie and broken promise from Trump. Over the last four months, I.C.E. has been arresting and placing American citizens, men and women who have legal residence in America, and anyone who is not pure white in detention centers awaiting deportation to God knows where. The truth is, the right wing’s move towards extremism and finally fascism did not begin with Trump and his handler, Vladimir Putin. It began in 1981 i...

The annual right-wing extremist bitch fest is happening this weekend. It is officially called the Conservative Political Action Conference, CPAC. But those words have little meaning in 2025. If you are honest about who is in control of our country today, the list fails to include a single loyal American. Trump and his political party are not composed of a single American patriot. They are Nazi loyalists and accept Trump as their Fuhrer. These traitors to our nation take their orders from Trump, Musk, and their oligarchs, better known as our country’s 756 billionaires. Conservatives does not exist. America is a plutocracy and money is the only value of concern for anyone claiming to be a “Republican” today. President Musk has been firing necessary federal government employees as quickly as possible. He claims that it is an effort to cut the cost of our government. In reality, this is all about finding funds to give additional tax cuts to the super-rich. A large number of IRS agents have...
