  • The Convulsed Republic: The Shooting of Donald Trump

    As a nation, the United States, as if we did not already know, is convulsed.  Paranoid and divided, giddy with conspiracy and deranged by a fear of totalitarian seizure, hyper partisan and hostile to debate and any loose definition of facts (this condition afflicts the entire political spectrum), the only thing missing so far was […]

  • Why George Clooney, Peter Welch, and the New York Times, Are Dangerous

    Why George Clooney, Peter Welch, and the New York Times, Are Dangerous

    I opposed the invasion of Iraq by Bush in 2003 — which destroyed that country — even before it was perpetrated. George Clooney, Peter Welch, the New York Times, and other liars or fools of liars, did not. I opposed the bombing of Libya by Obama in 2011 — which destroyed that country — even […]

  • “We Love you Joe, but…”: Hollywood’s Advice to President Biden

    There is something to be said about ignoring actors.  They assume roles, quite literally, camouflage themselves in scripts where personalities are created, and behave accordingly.  Given that they are paid liars, their political promptings should be treated with caution.  It is no accident that much the same thing can be said about the members of […]

  • “Genocide Joe” and “Fascist” Trump: What to Do!

    Joe Biden and other Democrat politicians portray the 2024 Presidential election as a choice between fascism and democracy.  Many avowed “socialists” echo that assertion.  Are they correct; or, are they misguided (given that the Party, which they back, is dominated by politicians who primarily serve capital and monstrous empire)? Palestine.  Biden and most Congress people of both […]

  • Trump/Biden Debate Immigration: US Foreign Policy as a Driver Is Ignored

    Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore, Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door! — Emma Lazarus’s inscription on the Statue of Liberty The contestants squared off in the first of the US presidential […]

  • Electing the Next Dictator: Ugly Truths You Won’t Hear from Trump or Biden

    Electing the Next Dictator: Ugly Truths You Won’t Hear from Trump or Biden

    No matter what carefully crafted sound bites and political spin get trotted out by Joe Biden and Donald Trump in advance of the 2024 presidential election, you can rest assured that none of the problems that continue to undermine our freedoms will be addressed in any credible, helpful way by either candidate, despite the dire […]

  • Lock Them BOTH Up!

    Lock Them BOTH Up!

    During the 2016 election Trump fanatics chanted “Lock her up,” referring to Hillary Clinton. The tables have now turned. Trump is a convicted criminal and Biden violates international law. In one of the most twisted forms of logic ever to appear in politics, liberals believe that screaming “Trump is a fascist” somehow proves that Biden […]

  • What is Independent Political Action?

    I recently found an unpublished essay written in 1979 by a comrade from Western Pennsylvania who argued passionately for the urgent necessity of independent political action. In The Time is Now: A Position Paper on Independent Political Action, Bob Bonner challenged the left to begin the process of building independent political organizations and to convince […]

  • Unbecoming American: The Nihilists at Prayer

    Unbecoming American: The Nihilists at Prayer

    The Democratic-Republicans at prayer Those who may recall, if only vaguely, the early chapters of their secondary school history books, may recognize- if not remember- that the original name of the “party of Jefferson” was the Democratic-Republicans. In the first years of the American Empire, the government was in the hands of the Federalist Party, […]

  • Dogmatic Neoliberal Democrats

    Dogmatic Neoliberal Democrats

     Orientation How dare you! How can you write an article against the Democratic Party less than six months before the election? You must be a Trump supporter! We must keep Trump out of office no matter what! Vote Blue no matter who! (Or now, Vote Biden no matter what!) Only a privileged person would consider […]
