If one more person tells me the Russians are to blame for Trump being president, I’m going to vomit on them. I know who fixed the election, and I will explain it in this article. Continue reading

A front-running Biden, looming catastrophe for the Democrats
Joe Biden is using Republican talking points to attack single payer health care. One wonders why he doesn’t just run as a Republican. Continue reading
Why everybody should defend the socialists while we still can
The entire corporate media is in cardiac arrest over “socialists” it sees running for president as Democrats. None of them are actually socialists—not one has called for the control of the means of production to be put into the hands of the people, but facts never matter much in corporate media propaganda. Their job is to keep the masses as ignorant as possible on behalf of the ruling Forces of Greed (FOG)—the plutocrats and their subordinate oligarchic corporations. Continue reading
Trump is a coward, and I should know; I took his place in Vietnam
Trump is a coward. I took his place in Vietnam, so I should know. Continue reading
If we took control from the fascists, would we allow fascists free speech?
If our leaders were not fascists, and we didn’t have a fascist press, all inside a fascist system, perhaps an average citizen could see more distinctly what is happening, rather than missing the forest for the trees as so many do. Continue reading
On the bear who spared my life
The bear’s large claws gently slid down my face, his mouth within inches of my own, and I recall a horrible stench in his breath. My back was pressed against a tree, and there was no escape, as the bear reared up on his hind legs to look me over, face to face. Continue reading
Penis-gate could save the republic
The pitiful Pompeo, in his latest attempt at boot licking, proclaimed God sent us Trump, with whom to solve the problems of the Middle East. Perhaps Pompeo has mistaken porn star Stormy Daniels for God? There is no evidence that God hangs with the Trumpster, but Stormy knows Trump, well, biblically. Continue reading
Join the march to save Venezuelan democracy
Tuesday morning CNN went all out, as a member of USA state propaganda, to continue to participate in support of a Venezuelan coup. Continue reading
Abby Martin makes an urgent plea to help prevent war on Venezuela
I would like to encourage everyone who wants to stop our Empire from destroying Venezuela’s democracy to watch Abby Martin’s important video on what is really happening there (about 40 minutes). Continue reading
You can help prevent war with Venezuela
Before the USA can destroy Venezuela, it must convince the American people of a number of lies to get them behind another war for oil. The TV networks are hard at work doing this, just as they spread the “Weapons of Mass Destruction” lies to get support behind the illegal invasion of Iraq. Continue reading
My interview with Uncle Sam to discover why we are staging a coup in Venezuela
I met Uncle Sam in a parking garage off 14th street, midway between the Capitol building and the White House. The meeting was arranged by a certain Madam X, who claims to have had an affair with Uncle Sam and prefers to remain anonymous, as the wife is unaware, but, according to Madam X, “a spiteful bitch who can overthrow your regime in a heartbeat.” Continue reading
Inside the ‘too far to the left’ scam of the mainstream press
Watching cable news, one notices that any mention of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez requires a statement that she is “too far to the left.” Several of the Democratic Party candidates for president are also identified as “too far to the left.” Continue reading
Why the USA starves Haitians to death: Inside the national security state
I began to learn about Haiti long ago when I interviewed President Aristide, and he told me that thousands of Haitians were being murdered by assassins paid by the CIA. Haiti has long been controlled by the USA, since the slave revolt in Haiti overthrew the French. Continue reading
Would Trump have come after my family for being illegal?
My grandfather was an illegal alien. During the 1800s he travelled from England, where he was born, to Canada, which was British territory in those days, so he wasn’t required to have a passport. He travelled to the Canadian West, then crossed the border into Idaho, to be known, thereafter, as an American. Continue reading
Is it becoming a woman’s world?
When one considers the aphorism, “It’s a man’s world,” one should realize that world lies within a female order. We fly through space at 1.3 million miles per hour within a galaxy of billions of stars known as the Milky Way, after the nurturing female secretion. Continue reading
How united progressives can topple the empire and empower the people
We are headed toward a catastrophic election in 2020 that must be addressed if humankind is to have a chance at survival. Continue reading
Trump idiocy turns lethal
With a devout follower of President Trump having been active at placing bombs in the US mail directed at Trump’s perceived enemies, corporate media have missed the most important fact in the story, that Trump has inspired a huge number of his admirers to commit violent acts against people in this country. Continue reading
Why you might consider the Buddha’s proposal
The Buddha was said to have predicted the day he would die. When that day approached, his followers, weeping, asked him to stay with them. “I’ve told you that life is about suffering,” he reminded them, “would you have me continue suffering?” With that, his followers let go and allowed their beloved teacher to die in peace. Continue reading
Why you should care that Facebook is at war with LUV News
Every person who believes in a free press should pay attention to Facebook’s war with one of their own groups called “LUV News.” Continue reading
How today’s plutocrats are not so different from the czars
Czar Nicholas II believed that he and the Romanovs had a divine right to rule. If the peasants froze or starved to death, that was their problem—he was chosen by god to live a life of luxury, much as American billionaires of today who inherit from the robber barons. No matter how much suffering it causes, they expand their wealth to deprive the masses of so much as a crust of bread. Continue reading
How Trump might win reelection with the continued help of the Democrats
It’s difficult to see how President Trump could be reelected if he stays on his current path, pushing capitalism to excess (leaving no billionaire behind). After all, it was his lurch to the left which got him the presidency, as many of the Rust Belt working class believed the Democrats had abandoned them. Continue reading
Big Pharma is Murder, Inc.
Thousands of people have died from taking Big Pharma’s products as directed, with Big Pharma executives aware that their products caused sickness and death. Continue reading
We have always had racism in our sports
As a boy in the US-Apartheid 1950s I remember being indoctrinated about differences between the races which made white athletes superior. No need to look in any particular place, it was a dominant theme everywhere in U.S. culture. Continue reading
Abortion rights about to end and why it should concern you
With the retirement of Justice Kennedy from the Supreme Court, abortion rights are about to end, said Jeffrey Toobin, CNN’s judicial watcher, this morning. President Trump, bowing to his glassy-eyed religious right minions, will appoint a replacement justice who will vote to abort Roe v. Wade at the earliest opportunity. Continue reading
Why Republicans always win, even if they’re called ‘Democrats’
In their casual rhetoric at election time, Democrats pretend to represent the public interest, saying you should vote for them to stop the Republicans, but never tell you they are the Republicans in a two-corporate-party duopoly made up of clones with two names. Continue reading
My interview with The Peace Mom
Cindy Sheehan is better known as The Peace Mom who gave President Bush hell for his illegal invasion of Iraq, in which Cindy lost her son, Casey. I interviewed her to bring readers up to date in June of 2018. Continue reading
An open letter to Scott Pruitt and his ludicrous pig god
EPA Administrator Pruitt, you lying son of a bitch. You are telling people that god talks to you? And your pig god tells you to trash our air, water and soil so that greedy plutocrats may become wealthier at the expense of everyone else, as species go extinct because of your heinous corruption? Continue reading
Why Trump will not fix the Korean situation
There has never been a peace agreement between the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) and the United States. When the Korean War ended is was planned that both sides would work out an agreement, but it never happened. President Trump is boasting that he will fix this problem, but, ignorant man that he is, he doesn’t understand that he can’t fix it. Continue reading
Spankings from Stormy, golden showers, and other presidential stuff
To really understand President Trump, one must first understand what’s behind the spanking he got from Stormy Daniels. Continue reading
Foreshadowing the Trump legacy and what the genuine left must do to counter
President Trump has eluded predictions since he began his quest for the White House, most not imagining he would ever govern. Now it is possible to see where all of this is going, but, before that, we must assess how he got there. Continue reading
I know who really controlled our elections (and it wasn’t 13 Russians)
It is amazing to hear from the corporate media warnings about those who spread what they call “fake news.” Amazing because nobody spreads more fake news than the mainstream press. This week they are parroting FBI charges that 13 Russians are the most important part of the control of our elections, as always, without investigating the charges. Continue reading
People are starving to death in our ‘booming economy’
Posted on September 10, 2019 by Jack Balkwill
When I look into whether or not the economy is doing well, the first statistic I use is homelessness. Continue reading →
