Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart The people of Iowa won’t miss her. Over the last 12 years, Joni Ernst failed to accomplish one positive thing. Like every other member of Trump’s fascist party, she carried his bags in a display of loyalty to her Nazi Master, while failing the people of Iowa and the entire population of the United States. She is expected to make an announcement this week telling her constituents that she will not run for a third term. Insiders claim that she never planned to run for reelection in 2026. However, after she was booed by angry Republicans at a town hall meeting, it was no surprise. She is joining other deserters including Moscow Mitch McConnell, Tommy Tuberville, and Thom Tillis. None of them will be missed. Over the last 10 years, those who call themselves “Republicans” have proven that they abandoned the principles and ideals of the former Grand Old Party years ago. Today’s fake Republican Party is composed of incompetents and fools. In three consecutive elections...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart “Impeach him, impeach him.” “Lock him up, lock him up.” These chants should be happening across America, including within the darkest red states in America. Trump continues to violate the Constitution with every breath he takes, none more despicable and egregious than his abuse of limited presidential powers. When the Supreme Court of the United States was corrupted with biased, extremist right-wing supporters in 2020, the intentions of our Founding Fathers were ignored by six members of what will be remembered as the least qualified and most corrupted Supreme Court in American history. Our Founding Fathers’ two primary goals during the Constitutional Convention between 1787 and 1789 were preventing the establishment of a single religion in America, and ensuring that this new country would never be ruled by a king or another form of autocrat. The current Supreme Court took powers away from the legislative branch, and illegally gave them to “King/Dictator/Fuhrer ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   Wisconsin has its “Cheeseheads,” and it’s clear the Iowa has its “Cornheads.” Monday, Iowa’s voters proved that their brains are made of starch by overwhelmingly choosing Trump to represent them in the 2024 election on Monday. If I lived in Iowa, I would be so embarrassed that my state supported a traitor and a loser, I would be forced to find a new place to live. I have a single consolation: the “Corn State” lacks any importance in our national elections. I admire certain human qualities, including honesty, a high moral standard, the desire and ability to think freely, and common sense based on facts. I believe these qualities inspire other attributes including compassion and understanding. These qualities earn my respect, the greatest honor I offer any man or woman within my frame of reference. Sadly not a single member of today’s “Republican Party” has any quality and is undeserving of my respect. Our elected officials have a single, basic purpose: to w...
