During his first illegitimate term pretending to be your president, Trump attempted to dismantle NATO, threatening to withdraw America from its leadership. First, another fact the mainstream media will always hide from you. Vladimir Putin openly expressed his desire to end the United States of America in the 1980’s, as a high-ranking officer in the KGB. His first plan included ending the NATO alliance. Putin has been enemy number one for America since he rose to power 40 years ago. Another fact: the existence of NATO and the inclusion of Article 5, is the only reason there has not been a WWIII. Article 5 includes a promise that if one member is attacked, all members have been attacked and will respond as one. Without NATO, Russia, China, and North Korea would have joined together to attack multiple nations in Europe, Asia, and most certainly the United States long ago. Humanity is a race eager for ultimate power, and wars are its tools. Mankind is too ignorant to learn lessons from cen...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFa rt   I f one fact w ould keep you from thinking about giving your precious vote to Trump, this would be it.   No nation, including ours, can survive alone in today's dangerous world. Our closest allies in Europe have expressed their fear s of another Trump Presidency.   Over a short period of time, 2017-2021, Trump separated America from nations who fought in WW II, and those who once fought against us. Th ese close ties required years of work to gain trust and respect. Much of this was intentionally destroyed by Trump and his party. President Biden has restored these relationships, but Trump would destroy them again. Trump and Putin share the same goal: destroy NATO, the alliance which has prevented WWIII.   [ Europe’s fears are that a second T rump term would drastically reduce transatlantic security ties, increase tariffs and sever critical US support for Ukraine.]   THE TRUTH LIVES HERE, AND I KEEP THAT PROMISE   They have...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart    For more than two centuries the United States of America was the shining star for the world’s people. Human rights and individual freedom became a hope for all of the world’s people oppressed by authoritarian rule. However, this all changed between 2017 and 2021 when our nation’s illegitimate president began to destroy the very essence of America.   Russia Remains the Greatest Danger to America and the World   I am nearly 78 years of age. From the time I can remember, the Soviet Union, now simply Russia, has been America’s greatest enemy. Russia’s leaders have changed names until a couple of days ago when it became clea r that one man will be in control for the remainder of his life.    One name has remained in the public eye since the 1980’s: Vladimir Putin. He became a central figure in the KGB during that decade. His ambition was clear and remains so today.    Trump and Putin Will End the NATO Alliance   P...
