Is This the Beginning of a Second Civil War?

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart We’re a little slow, but when the situation becomes unbearable, the American people eventually stand up and say, “I’m mad as hell and I’m not gonna take it anymore.” It’s time for ICE to be disbanded. Trump’s personal Gestapo is composed of villains and thugs. The level of violence from this group of less than humans, is escalating rapidly. When Renee Nicole Good was murdered by ICE agents in Minneapolis, the Trump administration began telling outrageous lies in an effort to cover-up the truth. However, eyewitness accounts combined with two videos don’t lie. This was an act of first-degree murder committed by a group of Nazis. On Thursday, two additional innocent American citizens were shot by Trump’s Gestapo in Portland. After the man and woman were rushed to a hospital, their condition unknown, Portland city council member, Sameer Kanal, had this to say.  “You are hearing and you are seeing attempts to justify the unjustifiable, to completely defend the in...

Apparently, Most Americans Support the End of Democracy and Accept Fascism Instead of Freedom: Tell me I’m Wrong

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I care. I have been warning the American people in print newspapers, blogs including The Las Vegas Guardian Express, the Guardian Liberty Voice, and my own Ask Reverend Jim and TheWiseOldFart for more than a decade that Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump have a master plan to end the United States and create a fascist state. Most of our nation’s citizens choose ignorance over fact. As long as they can purchase the latest i-Phones, buy Taylor Swift concert tickets, fill their stomachs with take-out or delivery food, and waste money they don’t have on “things,” they are happy to remain uninformed. Like Trump, they “learn everything they need to know on television.” For those who have ignored how quickly all three branches of our government have become corrupted, and the truth that the First, Fourth, and Fourteenth Amendments have already been shredded, read this article and weep. America is one step away from becoming a fascist nation ruled by the worst man in the wo...

The Escalation of Alito’s Failure as a Supreme Court Justice

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Samuel Alito was nominated for an open seat on the Supreme Court by George W. Bush in October of 2005, and confirmed by the Senate in January of 2006. His nomination forced close scrutiny from the left. Alito’s actions in a lower court were often controversial. However, after he swore to remain impartial, and was confirmed by a vote of 58-42. Like all right-wing politicians, he lied. ALITO AND THOMAS ARE OBVIOUSLY MEMBERS OF TRUMP’S CULT Both Alito and Clarence Thomas, who was appointed in 1991 by George H.W. Bush, continue to support issues important to the extremist faction of those who call themselves Republicans. We know that Thomas’ wife, “Ginny,” was present at the beginning of the January 6 insurrection. She openly supports the worst president in history. Records show that she and her husband received gifts in the form of luxury vacations from billionaire supporters who favor fascism, and the end of democracy in America. Alito continues his futile efforts...

Darkest Days in American History

Image
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   America’s past is filled with dark memories. Unfortunately, our country has failed to learn from all of these mistakes. I offer you my list of the ten darkest days in America’s history from bad to worst.   ONE OF SEVERAL ILLEGAL AND UNNECESSARY WARS   On April 20, 1975, the last helicopter left Saigon, leaving many men and women behind who had assisted the American military in the 20-year war in Vietnam. To this day no one has been able to justify America’s engagement in a war halfway around the world. More than 58,200 men who were drafted into an illegal war lost their lives. Vietnam would become one of many wars lost by America.  ar, SCOTUS VOIDS THE 14 TH AMENDMENT   I know it’s the truth, because I watched all three hours of the attempted coup on January 6, 2021. Trump controlled the entire violent attack on our Capitol Building. According to section three of the 14 th Amendment, he is ineligible to run for any elected office...
