The hearings to confirm Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense in the Senate are scheduled to begin today. It would be extremely difficult to find a less qualified nominee. Trump could have chosen son Eric, or possibly Sean Hannity; anyone but Hegseth. However, Hegseth does not stand out among the incompetent criminals and sexual deviates selected by the draft dodger. He is simply another future resident in the asylum: the new name for the White House. Soon it will become a reality: “the inmates will be running the asylum.” Hegseth and Trump have a lot in common. The FOX News personality also paid hush money to a woman after she accused him of sexually assaulting her. Trump consistently stole funds from his own charity. Hegseth was forced to step down as the CEO of two charitable organizations, Veterans for Freedom, and Concerned Veterans for America. The accusations included financial mismanagement, sexual impropriety, and personal misconduct. Like Trump, he was accused of being a lifel...

  Trump must be “punking” America. His list of nominees to head important agencies is composed of some of the most laughable men and women in America, none of which is qualified to make decisions about their own lives, and definitely not our nation’s future. If he is serious about them, he is without a doubt the dumbest son-of-a-bitch on the face of the earth. There is only one alternative: he wants to destroy every department in our government and end the existence of the United States forever. The list is long, and I don’t know everything about each of the lowlifes Trump selected. However, I can give you the highlights, or rather lowlights, of a few woefully unqualified selections. To be fully accurate, I must go back in time and look at his choice for Vice President. Once a huge Trump critic, whose comments were often brutal and more frightening for Trump, accurate, J.D. Vance is disliked by Democrats and Republicans alike. Donald Trump’s vice presidential pick was onc...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   If you want to see Donald Trump’s America, watch the “highlights” of the annual bitch-fest known as CPAC, the Conservative Political Action Conference, over the next few days. However, if you have high blood pressure, or a heart condition, listening to men and women who have a lower-than-average IQ, and hate their country, may result in a cardiac event or even death.   Today's Ringmaster is Also a Clown The leader of all right-wing politicians received an award this week. In a rating from first to 45 th , Donald John Trump received the much-deserved title of “worst president in history.” If he’s the best they have to offer, take a moment to think about how disastrous the rest of his party would be if allowed to defile the White House.   The truth is simple and irrefutable. Not a single man or woman calling themselves a “Republican” is qualified to lead our nation, and most, like Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Loren Boebert, Jim Jordan, Ted...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   Jim Jordan, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, Matt Gaetz: these are just a few of not only the worst legislators in American history, but the worst people ever to unjustly claim the title of “American.” How did this happen? How did our government become the most corrupt, incompetent, and uncaring in the world? Let’s stop lying to ourselves. This situation is our fault. These people were not ‘hired’ for their positions, they received enough votes to win elections. We, the voting public, are to blame for the fact that America has the worst government in the free world. Voters in Ohio, Georgia, Colorado, Florida, and other states simply chose to support anger, hatred, and support violence against minorities, Muslims, Jews, Hispanics, and all women rather than display any form of patriotism. These fake Republicans who call themselves the “Freedom Caucus,” have no interest in effectively governing our nation. They serve their masters; the plutocrats who a...
