  There are two days in my life I will always remember. I was a senior in high school on November 22, 1963 when a truly great president, John F. Kennedy, was murdered in Dallas Texas. I was out for a morning run on September 11, 2001. As I was coming up the street on which I live, my wife was in the front yard waving at me. I thought it was because my mother, who was under hospice care, had passed. She led me inside to watch the television. What I was seeing seemed unreal. My emotions were immediately out of control. Sadly, the cowardly and tragic events of 9/11 produced changes in our country which continue to cause harm to the principles of our nation. The intentions of the First, Fourth, and 14 th Amendments to the Constitution were greatly damaged with the passing of the Patriot Act, and the creation of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement, better known as ICE. 9/11, and the passing of these two unconstitutional actions happened under the watch of George W. Bush. The Patrio...

If Trump is not the Antichrist, I don’t want to experience another creature which might be worse. Trump is by far the worst thing to happen to our nation in its nearly 249-year history. Yesterday, Easter, Sunday, a day of rebirth and new beginnings, Trump, claiming to be a Christian predicted a dark and dismal future for America. Instead of offering the promise of Jesus Christ to create a new and better world filled with hope and love, he reiterated his hatred for all mankind who refuse to serve him. "Happy Easter to all, including the Radical Left Lunatics who are fighting and scheming so hard to bring Murderers, Drug Lords, Dangerous Prisoners, the Mentally Insane, and well known MS-13 Gang Members and Wife Beaters, back into our Country," Mr. Trump said, going on to wish a happy Easter to the "WEAK and INEFFECTIVE Judges and Law Enforcement Officials who are allowing this sinister attack on our Nation to continue." Trump seeks vengeance against those who exposed ...

Let me begin with a crude but accurate statement defining Trump and Musk: they are old, white men who are liars, and full of shit. A simple assessment of their actions proves that their efforts have a single purpose: to place even more money into the bank accounts of our nation’s 813 Oligarchs/Billionaires. Fair taxation has always been overlooked in America. History proves that our government has always placed the profits of the super-rich in priority above the welfare of the majority, with the exception of the FDR presidency between 1933 and 1945. If America’s most wealthy citizens paid their fair share of taxes in the past and present, our nation could fund the same programs found in every other developed nation and still have a surplus. Consider this fact: in 2018, Trump’s tax cuts for the wealthy supporters greatly reduced the percentage of taxes paid by the one percent. For example: In 2018 Walmart and Amazon paid zero dollars in taxes, while pocketing billions of dollars in prof...

Just a short reminder. I’m positive that the assassination on Trump in Pennsylvania was staged. He used an old wrestler’s trick to knick his ear with a razor blade when he dipped below the podium. If you doubt my allegation, I continue to ask one questions: “where’s the bulle?” A high velocity rifle pushes the projectile at high speed and the tip of an ear could not deflect its trajectory. Behind him was a wall of people. WHERE DID THE BULLET END ITS PATH? Op-ed by James Turnage If you follow my blog, you will be an informed citizen  

Trump fears all men and women who are highly educated. It is a certainty that his educational records are embarrassing. In 2017 he had all of them sealed for a reason. Yesterday there were more protests against Trump and his destructive and moronic policies. Many Americans called for his impeachment as his fascist policies contained in Project 2025 continue to destroy the very fabric of what made America a respected and envied nation. The attacks on Pearl Harbor and the World Trade Center resulted in increased patriotism. Trump’s damage to America will last for decades if we survive the “Three Amigos,” Trump, Elon Musk, and Vladimir Putin. One of our nation’s most treasured institutions is Harvard University. Founded in 1636, it remains a revered and respected nation comparable to Oxford and Cambridge. Trump, forever a schoolyard bully, threatened Harvard with the removal of federal funds if it continued the very American policies of DEI: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Harvard’s Pre...

I admit to being exactly three weeks younger than your illegitimate president. I also admit to being far more intelligent than my fellow original baby boomer. This makes me at least ten-times more intelligent than his avid supporters who he refers to as “basement dwellers.” I never finished college. Therefore, many of you will say, “Trump graduated from an Ivy League school. How can you make such a claim?” First, Trump clearly failed to graduate. His diploma, like his deferments from serving in the Vietnam War, were purchased for him by his father. Second, I would be willing to compare my knowledge of the English language, Mathematics, Science, Geography, and History with his any time. I offer you proof of my assertion any time Trump opens his pie hole. Of course he is lying, but listening to him is like listening to a three-year-old child. Half of everything he says is gibberish. I have no doubt that he failed any course which required knowledge of the English language. Trump is by fa...

Prior to the second illegitimate presidency of Donald John Trump, America was back on a path of compassion, understanding, and acceptance. Trump hates DEI for what it stands for: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. As the leader of the Neo-Nazi movement in our country, his plans for the future are dark, composed of anger, hatred, violence, and extreme racism. Dystopia: “an imagined state or society in which there is great suffering or injustice, typically one that is totalitarian or post-apocalyptic.” The current disaster is the backdrop for what will surely become a dystopian society. This is the plan laid out in Project 2025. The last sentence is Trump’s personal image of what the United States should become: the same dark place he spoke of in his first inaugural address. Although he claims to know nothing about Project 2025, every plan, every idea originates from his many hate rallies and the promises he made to his “basement dwellers.” What he doesn’t say is that when this becomes re...

I don’t know how many articles I have written about America’s most embarrassing and mostly preventable shame, and I don’t want to know the number. Our nation continues to suffer from domestic terrorism with more mass shootings than days on the calendar. It is an undeniable fact that our corrupt and incompetent government is not interested in this unnecessary loss of life. This situation happens so frequently only the most sensational of these unnecessary events are reported on the nightly “news.” The shootings occur at every venue imaginable: in places I could have never imagined 40 years ago. I will never forget the hours I spent on December 14, 2012 during the unimaginable tragedy which was taking place at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Parents who had dropped off their small children at school that morning learned that 20 of them would never come home. Six educators were murdered attempting to protect the most innocent victims imaginable. In October of 2017, 58 Americans were slaught...

If you’re not a resident of the Silver State, you probably don’t know who Joe Lombardo is and was. He is currently the Governor of my adopted state of Nevada. Prior to his winning the office of governor in 2023, he was the Sheriff of Clark County. He is also a Trump ‘suck-up.’ Lombardo is now appearing in television ads supporting his plan to release more land to developers who want to build more homes and apartment complexes in Nevada. He claims that if more living quarters are constructed, the cost of a home and the prices of rentals will be lowered. He ignores the increases in raw materials, land values, newer and more expensive codes, etc., etc., etc. He is a liar and a fraud. He is working for developers who are greedy millionaires and wannabe billionaires. Like all “Republicans,” or more accurately the “American Fascist Party,” Lombardo is owned by special interests. Nevada is one of the poorest states in the west. I worked in the casinos for about 20 years as a dealer and games ...

The First Amendment guarantees the right of ordinary citizens to peacefully protest their grievances against a corrupt government. The Mother of American Fascism, Marjorie Taylor Greene does not support the Constitution, although she took an oath to “preserve and protect” our most sacred document from all enemies foreign and domestic. Maybe she enjoys being one of the most hated people in our nation. On Tuesday the Trump lackey held a Town Hall Meeting in Acworth, Georgia. In addition to angry voters, a number of Georgia’s disgraced law enforcement were present, who proved that they share MTG’s disdain for the First Amendment. Protesters were attacked with stun guns, and physically removed from the venue for interrupting and booing the worst Representative in history. Several individuals exercising their First Amendment rights were illegally arrested, proving that there is no equal protection under the law in America. It also proves that law enforcement and the military are both fascis...

The government of the United States is the most corrupt and incompetent in the world. Now that this fact has been disclosed, let’s go back to election year 2024. A single story was reported early in 2024 which was never revealed during the remainder of a critical election year. The FBI reported massive efforts by Vladimir Putin and the best hackers in the world to interfere in our upcoming election; for the third time. Your corrupt government was complicit and refused to inform the voting public of this egregious attack on our democracy. Over the remaining nine months, Trump was crushed in the single debate between the leader of the Neo-Nazi movement in America, and Kamala Harris, attendance at his hate rallies was in rapid decline, while Ms. Harris was filling stadiums in swing states, and speaking about the issues; telling the truth. In 2016 the majority of Putin’s efforts to place his puppet in the White House were on social media, the worst thing to happen to the truth in world his...

The results of Trump’s annual physical are strangely similar to those reported in 2018. They were obviously bullshit then, and are certainly another huge lie today. One man claims that the results were actually copied and pasted from an Olympic athlete’s physical. I only need two statistics to prove that like everything else about Trump, his posted medical evaluation is bogus and another fairy tale. Trump is reported to be six-feet-three-inches tall, and weighs 220 pounds. Every picture of the malignant narcissist debunks these numbers. At my highest weight, 220 pounds, I continued to be in relatively good shape, and I am only five-feet-eleven-inches tall. My guess is that Trump weighs between 285 and 290 pounds, at the very least. Trump is without a doubt a rapidly aging, obese, mentally challenged man who continues to reveal the truth. He even fell asleep during his criminal trial. His minimal attention span was revealed during an Oval Office meeting with then Speaker of the House Pa...

  The only way I can accurately describe the three people who are leading our nation backwards today is by using names which are more accurate than Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and J.D. Vance. The Three Stooges made me laugh when I was a child. Their style of “slapstick comedy” was silly, outrageous, and very humorous. In the White House today, we have a new Larry, Moe, and Curly Joe. They are not funny, but they are morons. So, which of the original characters would I attach to the orange buffoon, his co-president, and the worst vice-presidential candidate since Dan Quayle? That question is very fair and the answer is obvious; at least to me. Trump is clearly Larry. He wants to be smart and do smart things, but he is several bricks short of a load. He defers to anyone who praises him; praise which does not deserve. Musk is most definitely Mo. He wants to be in charge, and probably is, but it’s hard to tell. The level of chaos is so ludicrous, it appears that America has no leader. He ...

I’m not sorry to tell you this fact: America is NOT a Christian nation. It is a country which protects all religions and the right for those like me to reject any organized religion without reprisal. If you don’t believe me, you have either never read the Bill of Rights, or you are a fascist and reject our country’s most sacred document and its most important Amendment. T he truth is that most “Christians” are not Christian. I read comments every day confirming that most Americans who claim to be “Christians” do not believe in the New Testament and the teachings of Jesus Christ. They desperately search for vague verses in the Old Testament which are aligned with their personal, despicable beliefs. One of the biggest religious hypocrites is Little Marco Rubio. Known as the laziest and one of the worst Senators in history, the TEA Party member is now Trump’s Secretary of State. This little moron is fourth in line to succeed the president. Our country is really f**ked up. Here’s what the ...

Your illegitimate Dictator-in-Chief is one of the dumbest humans on the planet. A cursory examination of his actions and words confirm that Donald Trump is a poorly educated old man with a very low level of intelligence. His failures at everything, beginning with an almost immediate loss of the 421 million dollars his father gave him to start his own real estate empire, and culminating with his justifiable reputation as the worst president in history, prove that the man pretending to be your president today is a con man and a complete fraud. Only a blithering idiot would suggest shining a bright light into your ass, or drinking bleach to kill Covid-19, and only a moron would deny scientific fact, including the disastrous effects of escalating climate change. Trump’s first 85 days in office have been focused on the destruction of the accomplishments of his predecessors. Only fools destroy the good and celebrate the bad. His childish efforts to take revenge on his adversaries are the act...

Putin, Trump, and Musk won: democracy is nothing but a memory today. America is now a fascist country under the control of Fuhrer Trump, and his master, Vladimir Putin. Trump’s Nazi Army has defeated the most powerful military force on the planet. If you read the three attached articles, and are witnessing the fact that our corrupt and cowardly military leaders are doing nothing to end Trump’s unconstitutional actions, they did nothing on January 6, and you know I’m right but don’t want to admit it. The truth is unconscionable and it is your fault if you voted for a traitor last November. I’m going to tell you something you won’t like, but it is an undeniable fact. If you were born after 1960, you have no idea what America was like before you were born. My generation, original baby boomers, has been criticized and made fun of by the idiots on late night television and stand-up comics for years. What you don’t know is that we grew up extremely patriotic and proud of the nation we were f...

It’s hard for me to believe that any man or woman on earth is more despicable than Donald Trump. However, the maniacal and treasonous Representative from Georgia, Marjorie Taylor Greene, is very close. She is the ugliest woman on earth, both inside and out. Greene is the poster child of why our government is the most corrupt and incompetent in the world. Every man and woman in Georgia who gave Greene their vote is a perfect example of why not everyone should have the right to vote, and why not everyone should be allowed to run for office. It now appears that she is dumber than she looks. It is becoming more evident that Trump was playing a game with his outlandish and foolish tariffs. He drove the stock market down to levels not experienced since 2020, but he had a purpose. He and his oligarchs bought low so they could sell high after the orange buffoon declared a 90-day moratorium. They made billions. It appears that Greene was included in his crime of insider trading, and was too dum...

“Stupid is as stupid does.” Not only is Trump incapable of solving our nation’s most serious problems, he doesn’t care. He does not represent you or me, he works for his oligarchs. Voters claim that their reason for giving their precious vote to Trump was based on his promise to end inflation on day one. He lied, again, when he told the American people that he cared about them. Prices are increasing once again, as Trump lies, claiming that they are lower than they were on election day. The only necessity which declined in price and availability is the price of eggs, but that was inevitable. Trump is so stupid, he thinks that I am stupid. I have watched his failures for more than a decade. He shares one thing with the second worst president in history, George W. Bush. Both of these men who grew up in an atmosphere of extreme white privilege, failed at everything they attempted, including their illegitimate presidencies. Trump will lie, claiming that he is a “great businessman.” However,...

      I have been writing articles about American politics since 2012. I know that what I learned altered the way I once thought about my country, our people, and the men and women who spend their days in Washington. The details are contained within the thousands of articles posted in newspapers and blogs. Today, April 11, 2025, I can tell you one fact I have come to accept; one fact which truly disappoints me. The men and women who control our major corporations, the men and women we elect and are chosen to serve on the Supreme Court, the men and women who lead our military, the men and women who provide healthcare, and the majority, the average American citizen are collectively the stupidest people on God’s green earth. The nation created by our Founding Fathers was far from perfect; they made many mistakes when they signed the Constitution in 1789. However, letters written by Jefferson, Madison, Adams, Washington ...
