Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Kristi Noem got what she wanted, and she is in way over her head. The former Governor of South Dakota was awarded for her devotion to the worst illegitimate president in history when he appointed her his Director of Homeland Security, a position for which she has no experience, and no training. Her actions have already proven that she is totally incompetent. A report from the New York Times claims that Noem ignored nearly two-thirds of the distress calls coming from Texas related to the tragic flash floods which may have cost the lives of 300 men, women, and children. Noem replied with anger and denial. “It’s just false,” Noem said on NBC’s Meet the Press Sunday. “It’s discouraging that during this time, when we have such a loss of life and so many people’s lives have turned upside down, that people are playing politics with this because the response time was immediate.” “ICE Barbie” doth protest too much. The facts are irrefutable. The Trump administration has ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart In December of 2019, your illegitimate president was informed by an aide, whose responsibility it was to read the Presidents Daily Brief, that a “probable healthcare emergency was evolving in Asia.” Trump ignored the information.

He stood before the television cameras and lied. “America is better prepared, and it will just go away.” That was his only response, “it will just go away,” until March when Americans began to lose their lives from the deadly effects of Covid-19. After a real President, Joe Biden, created a plan to distribute a life-saving vaccine, the number of deaths caused by Covid-19 exceeded one million. Healthcare experts claim that Trump’s failure to take immediate action in January of 2020 is responsible for at least 10 percent of those deaths. Trump became not only a white-coll...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump’s supporters once again choose ignorance over reality. They are falsely claiming that FEMA is acting to slowly to respond to hurricanes, Helene and Milton, although governors claim that it has been excellent, both Democratic and Republican. These same prejudiced men and women ignore the fact that Trump did nothing about the dangers presented by Covid-19, and is personally responsible for more than 10,000 or the one million+ deaths related to the deadly coronavirus. The word is “stupid.” There is no other word which applies. Op-ed by James Turnage
