For decades the Republican party has been straining to come up with effective voter suppression tactics, the only way it could hope to cope with election’s where gerrymandering could not be effectively deployed as in Congressional elections. And then along came Donald Trump — known to kill all that he touches and eventually backed by the COVID 19 pandemic — to rescue the Republicans from their fading political standing as the US morphs ever faster into a full blown muticultual nation.

Yes, killer of casinos, product lines, nations and people — Donald J. Trump — arrived bringing with him his…

News flash, the geart Fox New is afraid to cover the impeachment trial of Donald J. Trump live. They obviously want to record, edit and mold the proceedings to better suit the tastes of their primetime hosts and audiences. I mean what the heck, why allow their customers to have to view things they would rather not know? Just keep on feeding the animals the red meat that they prefer.

Well, now we have seen the defense put forth by Donald Trump’s mob lawyers. It is simply to show that both Trump and the Democrats use the same tough rhetoric — words like fight. In fact Trump’s defenders must have shown Democrats using the word fight a hundred times to make their point. What they don’t point out is what those tough words were directed for and against. In Trump’s case such words were said to promote tyranny while in the case of the Democrats they were directed against tyranny. …

The main purpose of a democratic form of government is to protect the nation’s average citizens from the excises of the rich and powerful. In this capitalistic American society that also includes saving capitalism from itself. Neither wing of today’s Republican Party protects the nation from the excess of corporate America and the super rich.

Making up the two wings of the GOP, there is first the upper middle class Republican wing, mostly White but some folks of color, those old-line Republicans ideologues types who see themselves as the party’s true conservatives — small government, minimum taxes with few government…

When those who started Fox News, media mogul Rupert Murdock and his evil operative Roger Ailes and other right wing media companies and personalities like Rush Limbaugh, decided that there were big bucks to be made pandering to the hate and fears of millions of Americans by promoting patently false information that would seemly justify the dubious thinking of a particular type of audience, such deliberate misinformation placed enormous stress upon our democracy — democracy being critically dependent upon solid sets of verifiable facts.

Without truths a nation becomes helpless before every crackpot politician and dubious organization (like QAnon) coming…

Big money hate started in the US when the super rich and corporate America (Wall Street) began screwing over average citizens, especially those middle class and lower middle class White men who had held relatively high paying factory jobs during the 50s, 60s and 70s, when such jobs in the 80s and 90s were being outsourced and unions broken. This created a large reservoir of resentment that was compounded when right wing political media began to flower; it being eager to stoke for cash this massive pool of bitterness.

In other words trouble started when the fat cats, deciding to…

If you are curious to know precisely how average Americans became ever poorer over the last forty plus years, you need look no farther than Kurt Anderson’s latest book, Evil Geniuses — The unmasking of America: A recent History.

So impressed was former conservative Republican Congressman Joe Scarborough, who, having once represented northwest Florida, that he featured Mr. Anderson elaborating upon his latest literary endeavor during the entire week of 1–11–21 on Scarborough’s popular MSNBC show, Morning Joe.

One of the quotes that the author displays prior to the contents page of Evil Geniuses is by associate Supreme Court Justice…

The following is my wonderfully insightful reply to Sarah J. Baker’s article entitled: America, You Deserve This.

America represents the best and worst of humanity. It is literally made up of all of humanity. It is dynamc. It is trash. It comes out of slavery, but aspires to the notion that all men are created equal. It is the law of the universe: creation is always offset by destruction — balance! It is “God’s” inexplicable plan.
