Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The hidden list: Healthcare, education, income inequality, racism and bigotry, religious persecution, misogyny, homophobia, Islamophobia, and an illegitimate and fascist president who hates his own country. Trump has been allowed to be your illegitimate president for five years and five months. He failed to take his job seriously between 2017 and 2021, and is once again refusing to serve the American people in 2026. Trump is the ultimate, professional politician. He made hundreds of promises over the last eleven years, and failed to keep one of them. President Biden spent four years repairing the damage caused by the orange buffoon. Therefore, not a single effort to solve our nation’s growing problems has been addressed since President Obama left office in 2017. Let’s look at each of the biggest problems facing America, many of which began in 1981, and have only become more problematic over the last 45 years. THE WORST AND MOST EXPENSIVE HEALTHCARE IN ALL DEVELO...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I was raised a Catholic. However, by the time I was in my first year of Catholic High School, I began to ask questions. I read the Los Angeles Times daily, and horrific events around the world gave me doubts about what I had believed for my entire young life. Some of the precepts of the Christian faith are contained in the “eight beatitudes.” Poor in spirit: Recognizing dependence on God. Those who mourn: Finding comfort in God through repentance. The meek: Trusting in God rather than self-assertion. Hunger/thirst for righteousness: Pursuing justice and a relationship with God. The merciful: Showing compassion and forgiveness Pure in heart: Maintaining undivided devotion to God. Peacemakers: Actively fostering reconciliation. Persecuted: Enduring hardship for living out faith. In the Bible, there are promises that those who believe in these attributes will be honored by God. They would be rewarded, and those with evil in their hearts who commit crimes against tr...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I have had a very strong opinion about abortion long before I could vote. Decisions to terminate a pregnancy belong to women alone, with the advice of their doctors. Old, white men have no right to make that decision for them, including priests, ministers, pastors, Ra bbis, Imams, and especially not ambitious and corrupt politicians. When Trump’s corrupt Supreme Court repealed Roe v Wade, they made a decision which was nothing less than pandering to Christians, primarily Evangelical leaders. It had nothing to do with undeveloped fetus’, it was purely political and another attack on women’s rights. All humans must own the right to make decisions about their own mental and physical health. MORE FASCIST ATTACKS ON WOMEN FROM TRUMP AND HIS NAZI PARTY On April 28, 2026, Jessica Waters testified before the House Judiciary Committee. For two hours, Ms. Waters was questioned about the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, a federal law which Republicans want to rep...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Without Netanyahu’s influence, Trump would never have had the cojones to wage his war against Iran. Getting Trump to participate in his efforts to exterminate all Muslims was a coupe for himself and his hatred of all members of the Religion of Islam. Netanyahu’s Islamophobia is the primary reason there has never been peace in the Middle East. For two decades Netanyahu has refused to negotiate a permanent peace with Israel’s Palestinian neighbors. GROWING IN AMERICA AND ESCALATING IN GREAT BRITAIN In the last 2 ½ years, England’s Jewish community has experienced an increase in hate crimes. The situation has escalated rapidly over the last few weeks. Anti-Israel sentiment has grown in the U. S. and around the world after Netanyahu ordered the murders of more than 60,000 Palestinian men, women, and children in Gaza. Ice has chosen to challenge students in our universities and colleges as they exercised their First Amendment rights. VIOLENCE AND MURDER POSING AS PAR...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I despise and attempt to eliminate from my life emotions of anger and hatred. I reject all forms of violence including the death penalty, and all wars and invasions. Anger is a waste of time, hate is almost always based on ignorance. Killing another human being is playing God.. There are rare exceptions to hatred, and there is no better example than Donald John Trump. Trump’s entire 325-350 pounds are composed of hatred. He, his administration, his political party composed of Nazis, and all broadcast television networks claiming to be “conservative,” but are in fact propaganda machines for right-wing extremists, constantly spread hatred which eventually breeds violence. His deliberate effort to destroy our nation from within is the reason every true American learned to accept hatred for the orange buffoon. As I grew into adulthood in the 1960’s, I paid more attention to what was happening in Washington. I wasn’t shocked, but I was a little surprised about the an...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart 2025 was a very, very long year. Some of you may have forgotten that Trump’s attacks on America began with efforts to punish minorities and the poor for not being rich and white. Diversity, equity, and inclusion, known as DEI, is a purely American ideal. If we are all equal under the law, and share the same Constitutional and Human rights, it simply makes sense. However, Trump is a Nazi. His fascist policies, contained in the right-wing’s fascist manifesto, Project 2025, claim that all non-whites, and all ethnicities not originating from Western Europe are inferior, and therefore not protected by the Constitution. It’s commonly called “white supremacy,” and Trump is its leader. The United States District Attorney, and the Department of Justice, including the FBI, are intended to be separate from the executive branch. However, Pam Bonie and her DOJ take their orders directly from the orange buffoon. Tood Blanche, Deputy District Attorney, and another Trump stooge...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart His name is Benjamin Netanyahu, also known as “Bibbi.” It seems to me that he and your illegitimate president are brothers from another mother. Both of these old men appear to be related to Putin. The Nation of Israel was certified by the United Nations in 1948. When I read the story in history books in high school, I found it inspiring, heroic, and I knew it offered hope for all mankind who continue to search for freedom, and the guarantee of basic human rights. However, a large number of nations are controlled by unscrupulous men and women who are solely interested in their own lives, not the lives of the people they serve. Israel’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, is one of those evil politicians. Like Hitler, Trump, and Putin, he has a deep hatred for one group of people, not entirely based upon their religion. Hitler attempted to destroy every man, woman, and child who practiced Judaism. Only he knew the true reason for such a strong and deep hatred for ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart You may not understand the importance of Christmas Day to real, normal people. Like the character in Charles Dickens 1843 “A Christmas Carol,” you are the most hated man in the world. Unfortunately, your lifelong affliction with malignant narcissism will not allow you to accept this fact. You lack the compassion and intellect to understand the importance of living a life worth living. You will die a man filled with anger and hatred for everyone but yourself. Because of your actions, millions of people around the world are experiencing a lesser Christmas than they deserve. You are the ultimate ‘Scrooge,’ and after your demise, you will be remembered only for the evil you spread around the planet. Your greatest problem is founded in the fact that you have never matured. You remain a spoiled child, born into the world of extreme white privilege. You have no knowledge of what it is like for most of our nation’s people, and the saddest fact of all is, you don’t care....

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart In 2022, then FBI Director, Christopher Wray, testified before Congress and stated a fact which should have frightened every American, and most importantly all law enforcement agencies. Director Wray offered a single warning: “Domestic Terrorism is the greatest danger to the American people in the 21st century.” No longer could the liars on the right side of the aisle blame Muslim extremists for all of America’s problems. On January 6, 2021, Trump planned, organized, and executed an attempted coup. His Nazi army was led by leaders of various Neo-Nazi groups, including the “Proud Boys,” and the “Oath Keepers.” In 2025, domestic terrorism is growing at light-year speed. However, Trump is ignoring this undeniable fact because he is their leader. You can call what is happening today a second American Revolution or a second Civil War. Regardless, real Americans are currently engaged in a battle to save our nation or surrender to outside forces and the e...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Yes, Donnie, I said it and I will not retract my words: You are the worst man in the history of the world. You are worse than your idol, Adolf Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, Kim Jong-un and his entire family, and your current handler, Vladimir Putin. You are intentionally murdering and causing harm to the most fragile people in the world, including one-half of all Americans. We know you enjoy the pain you cause others: you have proven this fact time and time again. You are not a man, you are a 300+ pound vessel for anger, hatred, and the incitement of violence in your name. I must tell you something Donnie boy: you no longer need to show us how you enjoy being the worst president in history. At least 20 of our nation’s 47 presidents have caused our country more harm than good. You have proven one fact to all of the world’s people: you are much worse than all of them combined. You are the greatest enemy the American people have ever known, and you can stop sm...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart No one will disagree with me when I say that Halloween is every child’s second favorite holiday. They love dressing up as their favorite character, real or imagined. What child doesn’t love candy? Adults have attempted to make it a day when men dress as the monsters they would like to be and women as the type of woman they are hiding within. One of the symptoms of malignant narcissism is the need to intentionally harm others. Last night, children across America were celebrating Halloween as their parents watched them closely, fearing they might be kidnapped by Trump’s Gestapo. My wife and I live in Northern Nevada, in a housing development of more than 1,600 homes. It is about 12 miles north of downtown Reno, considered a safe neighborhood. All of our streets are cul-de-sacs.  We moved here in 1999. Like all new homeowners, we were anxious to celebrate every holiday. We had no idea how many children to expect on Halloween night. I don't remember for certain,...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I pride myself on being an informed, caring, and today, a frightened American. Obviously, I despise and reject our current government. It has devolved into the most corrupt and incompetent body of governance in the world. Its leader is clearly the reincarnation of Adolf Hitler. Five words repeated by every professional politician incessantly are intended to hide the growing level of corruption in all three branches of a government which are failing to perform in a manner designed and designated by our Founding Fathers. These words are “for reasons of national security.” Today, one of Trump’s “armies” is revealing the true ambitions of America’s biggest traitor, who is supported and encouraged by his handler, Russian President Vladimir Putin. If you are one of the few who refuse to watch television “news,” and take the time to read, you are fully informed and know the truth about what is happening inside the confines of what was our nation’s most cherished Whtie ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The mainstream media will never say these words: ‘Trump has declared war on blue and purple states.’ They are afraid of becoming targets for his anger and retribution. They are worthless. The truth: Trump doesn’t give a damn about immigration reform. He is the Fuhrer of the Neo-Nazi Party in America. Trump is attempting to “cleanse our nation of all ethnicities who are not pure white.” Hitler reincarnated is on a rampage, and the question is, “will his lieutenants attempt to assassinate the maniac, like Hitler’s closest allies?” I doubt it. If you spend your days in Washington, you are a coward, refusing to do the right thing and keep your oath to the American people. Trump’s real purpose for violating the Constitution and placing our nation’s military in blue states is to prevent a continuation of mass protests against his fascist policies. His fragile emotional state is incapable of accepting the fact that he is the most-hated man in the world. The truth is, T...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart God, if there is one, must have a tremendous and somewhat cruel sense of humor. He gave mankind strength, resilience, and in some, great intelligence and wisdom. However, with the exception of a handful of the rarest of individuals, He also placed great weakness in every human being, which is usually triggered by often meaningless and baseless words. Politicians and the mainstream media control their supporters with the use of carefully chosen words and phrases. Throughout the history of the world, tyrannical leaders used words to inspire loyalty and incite violence on their behalf. Love and hate, trust and fear, anger and understanding, apathy and compassion, war and peace, these opposites are frequently twisted in efforts to brainwash the uninformed. Let me digress for a moment. I don’t have heroes. I do have people and their ideas for whom I have great respect. I believe that the greatest lessons in life are the result of listening to wise men and women and a...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I have not been this disappointed in the mainstream media since the story of a rich, 18-year-old white girl, who was allowed to go on a graduation trip to Aruba in 2005, went missing. Fox “Fake” News covered the non-story every day for over one year. I feel for Natalee Holloway’s family, but at the same time, several low income or poor young black girls went missing every week and their story was never on television news. Fox continues to display its apathy about non-whites in America. The latest idiotic action by the fake, right-wing extremist broadcasts is about a man who hated America, was unknown by most, and lived by spreading hatred, who was shot and killed in Utah. His name is now a household word: Charlie Kirk. Once again the mainstream media follows Fox’ example. Trump’s fascist minions are attempting to use Kirk’s death to divert  attention to the fact that your illegitimate president is very likely a pedophile. They are also attempting to misdirec...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The murder of Charlie Kirk was very wrong. Violence accomplishes nothing other than the procreation of more violence. Sadly, mankind lacks sufficient intelligence to learn this over thousands of years watching innocent people die for nothing. However, I will tell you the truth about the underlying causes for this tragedy, something no one in the mainstream media has the courage to stand up in front of the television cameras and 'tell it like it is.' Here it is: Charlie Kirk was not a good man. Like Trump, he lied, misrepresented the truth, created conspiracy theories, and spread the orange buffoon’s messages of anger, hatred, and revenge, while inciting violence. I offer you a few of Charlie Kirk’s “lowlights.” Said gun deaths are “unfortunately worth it” to preserve the Second Amendment. Called transgender identity a mental disease, needing “brain treatment.” Quoted scripture about homosexuality as an “abomination” deserving death. (From the Old Testame...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Born in 1946, I loved growing up in my America. Unfortunately, living in Trump’s America, a man who has led a life of white privilege, filled with racism and bigotry, who is only three weeks older than me, not so much. Growing up in the 1950’s, I loved my country as. In high school, I learned that it wasn’t perfect, but I remained proud to be an American. I believed America would only get better. Things change, hopefully in a positive manner. However, nothing good has happened in our country over the last 10 years. Donald Trump’s America is dangerous, dark, and regressive. His country is a nation in which I do not want to live. At home, in school, and at church, I was taught to respect all people, and treat them with compassion, understanding, and acceptance. Trump has created a world filled with anger, hatred, and violence. This 79-year-old man must have been an angry and unhappy child. At 13 he was sent to a military boarding school only a few miles from his h...
