Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Adolf Hitler gained complete control over Germany in 1933. His efforts to take control of every news agency had become a reality. Without exception, all “news” originated from his Nazi administration. With Trump and his 902 oligarchs established absolute control over our nation’s government, the most dangerous result changed America’s future forever. All major news agencies, the mainstream media, are owned by billionaires loyal to Fuhrer Donald Trump. With the orange buffoon’s illegitimate election, the Fourth Estate ceased to exist. In 1789, the organizations charged with keeping our nation’s people informed, were given First Amendment protection with the expectation they would expose corruption and criminal activity in our nation’s Capital. That was then, this is now. Not a single member of today’s mainstream media has the courage or patriotism to report the facts as they are in Washington today. They have joined Trump, his House and Senate, and six members of...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart It is no secret that Trump’s lifelong idol is Adolf Hitler. Your illegitimate president is attempting to mimic his Fuhrer in every way. He has become a tyrannical dictator; ignores the needs and wishes of his own people, is engaged in ethnic cleansing, and lies every time he opens his piehole. After Tuesday’s enormous losses: a virtual mandate by the American people: he should follow his hero’s example and take his own life, or simply place himself in exile to the country he actually loves; Russia. However, Trump is too cowardly and too self-centered to do the right thing. Nothing would please real Americans more than to never hear the name Trump again. For more than 10 years, when I turn on my computer every morning, I see his name everywhere. I don’t read anything he has to say, because he never has anything of importance coming from his lying lips. e     When the votes were counted on Tuesday, Trump’s greatest fear became reality.

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I will never forget driving by the polls in 2020’s early voting days. The parking lots were full, and cars lined the side streets. I had already voted by mail, but I wanted to see how many people shared my displeasure with the worst president in history. Yesterday, November 4, 2025, was not a general election day, nor a midterm. However, gubernatorial races and the selection of the Mayor of the most important city in the world spoke volumes about how intent real Americans are about taking their country back from Donny Dictator. Trump’s name was not on any ballot in any state yesterday. However, as it was in 2020, any vote against a candidate supported or endorsed by Trump, was a vote against the worst man in the world. Yesterday was also a repeat of 2020. Trump candidates were crushed in New Jersey, Virginia, and New York City. Less “hot button” races and issues followed this pattern across our nation. You can expect Trump and his Nazi Party to repeat the “big l...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Most of you are too young to remember the 1960 election. Both Democrats and Republicans feared John Fitzgerald Kennedy. He was charismatic, handsome, extremely well-spoken, and inspired both men and women. I was only 14 years old. Obviously, I could not vote, but like most other young Americans, I saw something in then Senator Kennedy which excited me; gave me hope. Democrats feared his candidacy because he was a Catholic. In 1928 Al Smith, also a Catholic and the Democratic presidential nominee, was badly beaten by Republican Herbert Hoover. Similar fears arose on both sides in 2008. Barack Obama was also brilliant, and a great public speaker who inspired everyone who listened to him. However, some Democrats feared that our nation may not have been ready for its first Black President. Republicans were also divided. Their candidate was the Senator from Arizona, a man respected by members of both parties, John McCain However, Senator Obama was younger and had a b...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I have written many stories about the Republican Party taking its final breath on January 20, 2017. Although this is a fact, it’s not surprising. For more than 15 years, when the TEA Party was allowed to invade the former Grand Old Party, all right-wing politicians began moving farther to the right. Today, they have become fascists. However, what I never told you in so many words, is that the Democratic Party no longer exists, and hasn’t for the last 80 years. In 1932, the greatest President of the United States in history was elected for the first time. Over the next 13 years, Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s policies were focused on the working man and woman; the majority. Although he was reluctant to enter into the second World War, he prepared our nation for the possibility. When we were attacked by the Japanese on December 7, 1941, we were ready to help our allies defeat the evil forces of fascism. There has never been a president like FDR and I doubt there ever...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Let’s discuss the ‘enigma’ which is Elon Musk. I don’t know what others think of him, or how much they know about the ‘man,’ not the image. Musk was born in South Africa on June 28, 1971. His wealthy mother immigrated to Canada in 1989, where she and her son became citizens. In 2002, Musk moved to the United States and became an American citizen. Musk is best known as the CEO of Tesla, and SpaceX. In 2024, he joined Trump’s campaign and donated a reported 291.5 million dollars to the orange buffoon’s campaign. Trump created a position in his administration for Musk; a position for which he was woefully unqualified. Trump named it the “Department of Government Efficiency,” DOGE. What it actually was became clear immediately. It was an illegal agency whose purpose was to rid Washington of legitimate agencies which had been focused on investigating Trump’s egregious and numerous crimes between 2021 and 2024. Thousands of hard-working government employees were summa...
