Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Today, six members of the Supreme Court of the United States are right-wing extremists who support the fascist policies of their Fuhrer, Donald John Trump. Our Founding Fathers were not perfect: they made many mistakes. These mistakes were the result of their mistaken belief that their successors would improve what they began. They underestimated the faults of mortal men and their desires for money and power. The only reason for giving Supreme Court Justices lifetime appointments was to prevent them from becoming politicized. They believed that if they were not required to run for reelection, they would remain impartial. They were greatly mistaken, as we can all testify to today. America’s government is a system of checks and balances. The three branches, executive, legislative, and judicial, were given ‘separate but equal powers.’ However, in 2025 the executive and judicial branches are abusing their powers, while the legislative branch is doing nothing, with t...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It is no secret that Trump’s lifelong idol is Adolf Hitler. Your illegitimate president is attempting to mimic his Fuhrer in every way. He has become a tyrannical dictator; ignores the needs and wishes of his own people, is engaged in ethnic cleansing, and lies every time he opens his piehole. After Tuesday’s enormous losses: a virtual mandate by the American people: he should follow his hero’s example and take his own life, or simply place himself in exile to the country he actually loves; Russia. However, Trump is too cowardly and too self-centered to do the right thing. Nothing would please real Americans more than to never hear the name Trump again. For more than 10 years, when I turn on my computer every morning, I see his name everywhere. I don’t read anything he has to say, because he never has anything of importance coming from his lying lips. e     When the votes were counted on Tuesday, Trump’s greatest fear became reality. Zohran Mamdani will...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I didn’t know it when I was a junior in high school in 1962, but I now know that history is the most important and fascinating subject we can study. Past events teach us valuable lessons, and it is critical that we learn from both our successes and mistakes. The sad truth is that we learn more from past mistakes than from accomplishments. “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.” Dictator Donny Trump exists in the past. There is no place for a racist, bigot, a homophobe, a sexist, or a xenophobe in our nation’s future. Trump’s past is a story about one man’s abject failures and his many “firsts.” These “firsts” are not composed of virtuous and successful actions, but with failures, criminal activities, and sexual deviance. Trump’s private life is composed of failed business ventures, bankruptcies, and accepting “bailouts” from Vladimir Putin, and the Saudi Royal Family. His personal life is dominated by his actions as a se...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump nominated Paul Ingrassia to head the Office of Special Counsel. This was intended to be a “watchdog” agency, but when Trump places one of his like-minded cronies into any position in his administration, their purpose is to rubber stamp his fascist agenda. After members of both parties railed against Ingrassia’s open racism and his own admission that he has a “Nazi streak,” knowing he would not be confirmed, Ingrassia withdrew from his nomination. Democratic leaders expressed their concerns in a letter. "Mr. Ingrassia’s loyalty to Donald Trump over the Constitution, his calls for imposing martial law and celebrating violent January 6th insurrectionists, and his close associations with antisemitic extremists all make it clear that he lacks the temperament, experience, and fundamental constitutional fidelity required to lead this office," Reps. Robert Garcia (D-CA) and Jamie Raskin (D-MD) wrote in the letter. "He is not simply unqualified—his c...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump has no sense of humor. This is an undeniable fact, based on the fact that his weak, little mind cannot accept even the most minor criticism. The only times I have witnessed a smile not forced by necessity on his wrinkled old face, is when he is meeting with hiT  

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Later today, October 18, 2025, millions of true Americans will be performing the most patriotic act possible in a free country. They will be marching in the streets across America, peacefully protesting against the worst, illegitimate president in history and his many violations of the Constitution of the United States of America. If I were not physically disabled, I would be proud to join them here in Reno. Countries are people, and leaders of all countries have a single purpose: to protect and serve those people. In this country, when they fail to perform the jobs for which they were elected, it is the duty of every American citizen to exercise their First Amendment right and demand change by removing a tyrant from his or her position of power. Trump has proven beyond any doubt that his plan, Project 2025, is to end democracy in our nation and establish a permanent plutocracy/oligarchy in its place, supported by a fascist regime with himself as its Fuhrer. But...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Prior to 2015, Adolf Hitler was confirmed as the worst man in modern history. His fascist ‘playbook,’ Mein Kampf, contained tactics which would gain complete loyalty and control over the people of Germany in the 1930s. Key elements included “alternative facts.” He believed that if a lie is told often enough, it will eventually be accepted as fact by weak-minded and uninformed citizens. He knew that professing a belief in extreme nationalism would use the emotions of an entire nation to rally behind his fascist beliefs. WWI had crushed the German people who were eager to regain status on the world’s stage. He was also aware that if a free press existed, he would be exposed. Within a year, all “information” came exclusively from his Nazi Party. Trump’s fascist manifesto is called “Project 2025.” Its origin came from Trump’s many hate rallies attended by weak and like-minded Americans. Friends of Trump’s first wife, Ivana, told reporters that the failed businessman...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Every action has consequences. In 1981, no one paid any attention to Ronald Reagan’s seemingly unimportant demand from his own political party. The mainstream media referred to it as “party unification.” What it really meant was the beginning of fascism within our federal government, and the repeal of rights guaranteed by the Constitution. Reagan demanded unquestioned loyalty from every member of the Republican Party. Every member of the House and Senate on the right side of the aisle was required to support Reagan’s policies without dissent. Thus began the end of deliberation and compromise within the Capitol. This one action is the primary reason why our government is dysfunctional today. This unwritten rule for all right-wing politicians continued throughout the George H.W. Bush single term, the George W. Bush administration, and continues under Trump’s fascist rule. However, under Trump, his party has become extreme, openly displaying its plans to end democr...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The Constitution no longer exists. Trump has violated the Bill of Rights and more, and to allow him to “get away with this,” is criminal and can be labeled as treason. His super majority in the Supreme Court continues to surrender their powers to the worst man in the world. The Constitution guarantees everyone in America access to "due process." Thousands of men, women, and children, whose only 'crime’ was searching for a better quality of life, are currently being held and tortured in concentration camps across America’s red states. Nazis are thriving in 21 st century America. The Constitution forbids our government from using our military against its own people. Trump is placing the national guard and regular military forces in blue states. By the way, where was our incompetent military during the January 6 insurrection? Sitting on their fat asses, watching it on television, like the master, Donald John Trump. Trump is violating the First Amendm...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Donald Trump, Trump’s Fascist Party, Six members of the Supreme Court, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, 902 oligarchs, all law enforcement, the mainstream media, and Evangelical Leaders. These groups are all enemies of every true American in 2025. They all support Trump and his fascist plans for America’s future. This also confirms that they are subjects of Vladimir Putin, Trump’s official handler. He confirmed this once and for all when the two dictators met on the tarmac in Alaska. It is clear that in the 21 st century America’s greatest enemies exist within our shores. The above institutions and organizations are why the greatest danger to America’s future comes from failed and biased groups who are controlled by 902 billionaires/oligarchs. In 2025, our biggest issues are domestic violent extremism, political violence, Ideologically motivated violence, persecution of the LGBTQ community, specifically transgender Americans, and a general atmosphere of uncertainty a...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart In March of 2003, an incompetent Republican administration acted hastily and without intelligent examination and consideration to create a new government agency. It was, and is, unnecessary. This rash decision resulted in what can only be called what it is: a secret police force to be used in any manner our presidents decide acceptable. This followed the misnamed “Patriot Act,” which removed the 4 th , 5 th , and 14 th Amendment rights of every American citizen. ICE, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, is unlike any legitimate law enforcement agency. Its guidelines and policies vary, not cemented in any form of legitimate and comprehensive rules and regulations. It is very obvious that what little training its agencies receive does not include public relations or even respect for the men, women, and children they kidnap and detain. Most Americans do not respect or trust ICE agents. They are nothing more than brutal thugs. Trump is using them as his personal Ge...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart First of all, this is just another thing Trump knows nothing about. Antifa is not an organization. It has no leaders and no membership. It is a movement which occasionally gathers spontaneously to protest fascists and fascism around the world. E-mails and texts are passed on to each person wishing to participate. Trump calls antifa a terrorist group. He’s full of shit, as always. Domestic terrorist groups include those who call themselves “Republicans,” six members of the Supreme Court, Q’Anon, Fox News, Newsmax, and other groups who would destroy democracy in America and replace it with a fascist regime, placing Trump in power as Fuhrer of the Disunited States of America. Antifa is ‘people:’ people who want to remain free and enjoy the rights guaranteed by the Constitution. The real terrorists are sitting on the right side of the Capitol building. That title belongs to Trump and his people. They are the enemy of all true Americans. Op-ed by James Turnage Follow...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart  (Walt Disney must be ashamed of his company today0 Is Trump a Fascist? Yes, without a doubt. More importantly, he is the leader of the Neo-Nazi movement in America as proven by his failed coup on January 6, 2021. A few weeks ago, it was confirmed that the parent company of CBS, Paramount, fired the host of the highest-rated late-night television broadcast simply because Trump told them to. Tonight, 9/17/25, it was reported that the longest running host in late-night television, had been suspended, and his return is in doubt. Jimmy Kimmel was virtually fired for his fair and justified comments about the murder of another traitor to the American people, Charlie Kirk. Disney has become another member of the most corrupt and anti-American companies in America.  “The MAGA Gang (is) desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it,” Kimmel ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart First, it is a fact that former FBI Director, Christopher Wray, stated that Domestic Terrorism is the greatest threat to the American people. However, one of Trump’s stooges offered his own idea and definition of Domestic Terrorism. The murder of Charlie Kirk was unacceptable in my America. However, he was not a national celebrity, not a great athlete, not a legendary educator, not a longtime public servant, or a revered spiritual leader. He was another opportunist spewing his message of hatred and violence against everyone who is not pure white in America. Yeah, he’s one of those. The right-wing is desperate to misdirect the American people and their demand to learn the truth about Trump and his close friend, who just happened to be a pedophile, Jeffrey Epstein. Therefore, they are attempting to portray Kirk as a hero, even a saint. Here are just two examples of the divisive rhetoric he offered his cult. Charlie Kirk, “Called Martin Luther King Jr. a “myth” and...

I am a pacifist, although in today’s America, it’s very hard to keep vile and destructive emotions subdued. I am fully aware that violence is never the answer. No war has ever been “won,” and no disagreement is ever resolved with a fist. Leaders must lead by actions, by example. Words are simply breaths making a sound as they exit the mouth. They mean nothing. In 2025, America’s “pseudo-leader” is an old, obese, brainless, and spoiled man-child. He is nothing more than a schoolyard bully. Every word coming out of his piehole is composed of anger, hatred, and the incitement of violent actions in his name. On Thursday, while speaking in Utah, a right-wing extremist Trump supporter was murdered by a lone shooter. This heinous act is unforgivable. The truth is irrefutable and the reason for a huge increase in hate crimes and other forms of violence must be placed on the narrow shoulders of one old man who suffers from a lifelong ailment known as malignant narcissism. His name is Donald Joh...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It was May 6, 2024. While playing with his boy toys, his oligarchs, at Mar-a-Lago, Trump made a hilarious statement, calling President Biden and his staff the “Gestapo Administration.” His reason was based on the fact that a real President was purging traitors from our nation. Biden had the ‘nerve’ to prosecute criminals who just happened to be GOP candidates running for political office. If Trump was allowed to run for office, after committing the greatest act of treason in American history, why shouldn’t they? The reason: the only person placed above the law by the Supreme Court of the United States in history is Donald John Trump. This is hilarious because Trump is using his personal Gestapo, known as ICE, to violate the Fifth Amendment rights of thousands of men, women, and children by kidnapping them and placing them in concentration camps without due process. It is impossible for any man or woman who reads the truth about what is happening in our country t...

Op-ed from TheWiseOldFart Fact: Trump lies constantly. Fact: the dictator is placing our nation under Martial Law using the fake and fraudulent excuse of “law and order.” Another violation of the Constitution. Fact: Trump is closely following his fascist manifesto called ‘Project 2025.’ Fact: the corrupt federal government of the United States is allowing our nation’s biggest traitor to end the dream of our Founding Fathers. Why isn’t anyone doing something? Every day, Trump has been allowed to violate the Constitution. He has already used the First, Fourth, and Fourteenth Amendments as toilet paper. [Asked about plans to expand ICE operations in Chicago specifically, Noem told CBS News’ “Face the Nation,” “We’ve already had ongoing operations with ICE in Chicago and throughout Illinois and other states, making sure that we’re upholding our laws, but we do intend to add more resources to those operations.”] The very existence of ICE, the Patriot Act, and Trump’s illegitimate presidenci...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump is playing the ultimate right-wing ‘card:’ he is attempting to suppress votes in all future elections. History proves that when the voter turnout is above average, and the election is fair and secure, his party loses. The “most secure and fair election in history,” held in November of 2020, proves my claim. Last week the fascist announced that he will do everything in his power to end voting by mail, which has proven to be the safest and most secure way to be counted. However, if I could not vote by mail, my disabilities would prevent me from using my Constitutional right. Today, he announced that he will again violate the Constitution and abuse his powers and require voter ID for all elections. "Voter I.D. Must Be Part of Every Single Vote. NO EXCEPTIONS! I Will Be Doing An Executive Order To That End!!!," Trump said on Truth Social. Are you tired of living in a nation ruled by a fascist dictator? If you are, demand action from your government...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I challenge the mainstream media to live up to its responsibility and tell the truth. Our Founding Fathers gave them First Amendment protection for a single reason: they were to expose corruption in government. However, since 1981, they have failed the American people. A little-known threat was made by congress. They were told that if stories they did not want to be told appeared in the news, their “sources” would disappear, and their careers in jeopardy. Almost immediately any stories about corruption on Capitol Hill either disappeared or were incomplete. In the 21 st century, there exists only one way to be completely positive that a pending story involves corruption comes from these five words: “for reasons of national security.” This, and the fact that “sensationalism” increases viewership, and an increase in ratings encourages an increase in advertising revenue, is why the “real Donald Trump” has not been fully exposed over the last 10 years. However, over...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Due process. The Fifth Amendment guarantees certain rights to everyone in the United States, regardless of citizenship. [No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.] Trump has ordered his personal Gestapo, ICE, to detain thousands of men, women, and children without due process. None have been charged with a crime. All are being tortured and deprived of their rights. Your Dictator-in-Chief should be facing impeachment for viol...
