  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Your government doesn’t want you to know the truth: they declared war on Afghanistan. The Pentagon doesn’t want you to know: they lost the war. The mainstream media won’t tell you the truth: they are owned by oligarchs who own our government. But, I will: it’s my responsibility. When George W. Bush failed to capture or kill Osama bin Laden late in 2001, he left our military forces behind, creating our nation’s longest war. When our military forces left Afghanistan in August, 2021, our nation had lost 2459 lives and hundreds of billions of dollars. It was the Pentagon’s 4 th loss since WWII. However, the losses continue today. HOW OUR NATION CONTINUES TO SUFFER FROM ANOTHER UNWINNABLE WAR After the final members of America’s military left Afghanistan, its poppy fields began to grow rapidly. Today, most of the world’s illegal heroin is produced in these fields. A whopping 85 percent of all illegal sales across the world originate from a previous war zone, a...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein had an extremely close relationship for years. It ended at some point between 2004 and 2007. It is well-documented that they shared a passion for beautiful, young women. How young is the only issue of importance in this article and in the minds of the voting public. Trump continues his attempts to prevent the release of Epstein’s personal files. He took similar action in 2017 preventing the release of his academic records. The only logical question is, “why?” What details of Trump’s useless life are so terrible that he and his ego would be destroyed if either of these records were exposed? I will be honest. When it comes to average intelligence and common sense, Trump is a literal “dumbass.” From everything I read over the last ten years, I know that Trump never earned his degree from Wharton. His daddy, who failed to raise a good and caring young man, paid for his diploma, as he had for Donny’s deferments preventing him from ser...

      If you watched the violent insurrection on January 6, 2021, you cannot deny what you saw. Trump stood on a stage in front of the White House and ordered his Neo-Nazi army to march to the Capitol and halt the certification of the Electoral College vote. When they arrived at the Capitol Building, they broke down doors, smashed windows, and physically attacked the Capitol Police, killing at least one and injuring about 150. They searched the building, stopping to defecate in some of the offices, looking for Nancy Pelosi and Mike Pence. Trump had ordered his mob to kill them both. The only thing I did not know on that day was what happened before the insurrection. The mainstream media will not tell the truth, but it is available on several legitimate and respected websites. The planning and organization took place at Trump’s Willard Hotel in D.C. In attendance were Trump, Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, and leaders of Neo-Nazi gr...
