Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Trump is clearly guilty of violating the Espionage Act, a federal law punishable by death if broken. However, Judge Aileen Cannon, who was appointed by Trump, continues to delay the trial until after the election. If he wins the election, he will pardon himself for his heinous crime. Another of Trump’s many, many crimes will go unpunished. Her excuse is based on the immoral and illegal decision by the Supreme Court about presidential immunity. Your president is above the law. Sentencing for his hush money case when he was convicted of 34 felonies is even more ridiculous. He was not your president when he committed those crimes. Originally sentencing was scheduled for five days from today. However, that, too, has been delayed until September, or later. TRUST NO ONE In my 78 years, I have learned one sad fact: No one in power, or in possession of enormous wealth can be trusted. They control our country and therefore our people, and have no interest in the welfare ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   If you bust you r ass for an old, obese, white man with a much bigger ass, you will lose everything of value, while he remains unscathed.   This is a pattern for those who serve the worst man in the world.   Donald Trump cares for no one but himself. He demands absolute loyalty, but offers none in return.   The first in a long line of suckers, (Trump’s term), was the former senator from Alabama, Jeffrey Beauregard Sessions. He offered his devotion to Trump in 2015, the first member of the Republican Party to do so. Although the mainstream media refused to re port the facts, Sessions became a go-between for Trump and his handler, Vladimir Putin during the 2016 campaign .   After Trump was declared the winner in a rigged election, Sessions begged the illegitimate president-elect for a position in the White House.   Sessions became Trump’s first Attorney General. However, when he refused Trump’s unrealistic demand to fire th...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Donald Trump is infamous for his many “firsts.” None of them are worthy of praise. However, on Thursday, May 30, 2024, he had another moment of shame which may become his most devastating crime of all. A jury of his peers, or in this case, “superiors,” found him guilty on all 34 counts after his so-called “hush money trial.” However, and this is not a joke, Trump will still be allowed to run for public office. Only in this f**ked up country! There is no justice in America. THE TRUTH IS, IF THE TRIALS ARE FAIR, HE WILL BE CONVICTED OF EVERY COUNT AND EVERY CHARGE Trump is a lifetime criminal, and with age his crimes become more destructive, and more heinous. However, with a failed justice system and corrupted Supreme Court, he could be the first convicted felon to serve as your president: not mine. Trump’s court appearances are just beginning. I know that he is guilty of treason. I watched all three hours of the violent insurrection on January 6, 2021. I heard wh...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Corruption and even Crimes of a serious nature are far from uncommon in our nation’s young government. In my lifetime alone, I can think of several names which have become infamous. I know you all will think first of Richard Nixon, but there were also three other high-level politicians who were forced to resign. As you might assume, none of them were fairly punished. WHO REMEMBERS SPIRO T. AGNEW? Mr. Nixon’s first Vice-President was the former Mayor of Maryland, Spiro T. Agnew. After a thorough investigation by the FBI, Agnew was forced to resign, less than a year prior to Nixon’s own resignation. He plead guilty to avoid charges of political corruption. He was fined $10,000, and sentenced to three years’ probation. The state of Maryland disbarred him. NEWT GINGRICH AND “THE PARTY OF FAMILY VALUES” For those of us who lived through those years, Newt Gingrich will be remembered for two reasons: he was a hypocrite and another Republican criminal wh...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   From the time I could afford to purchase my first automobile, I began to understand why everyone complained about gas prices.   Now, at the mature age of 77, I can tell you why they piss of f just about everyone .   The oil and gas industry began the practice of “Greedflation” about 50 years ago. Whenever they had ac cidents , spills or were forced to make expensive repairs to their aging equipment, they would arbitrarily raise prices at the pump. If you live near a resort area, like me, you notice that the prices are much higher in that area than where you live. I live near Lake Tahoe, and not only is this a fact, the se companies raise prices down here in Reno and up in Lake Tahoe prior to every holiday. Tahoe no longer has a commercial airport.   LAST WEEK TRUMP OFFERED 20 OIL EXECUTIVES A BRIBE   It was revealed that last week Trump met with 20 gas and oil executives at Mar-a-Lago. He told them that if they would donate one-b...
