5th Anniversary Of January 6, 2021 Insurrection:The Truth Cannot Be Eliminated!

Ronald 6 Comments

Today is the 5th Anniversary of the January 6, 2021 US Capitol Insurrection, perpetrated by Donald Trump, and his evil minions, who are attempting to wipe out history for future generations!

But the struggle to retain the truth of the horrors of that day, which should be regarded as equivalent of December 7, November 22, and September 11 goes on.

Despite Donald Trump being able to evade punishment at this point for his authoritarian actions then and since, it is essential that the truth be told.

Otherwise, the battle for the rule of law and American democracy and the Constitution, will lead to myths and lies that will undermine the history of the American Republic, as the 250th Anniversary awaits us six months from yesterday.

The sacrifices of the US Capitol Police that day, with 170 injured, and five dying, cannot be eliminated as facts, and the danger that the members of Congress faced that day, cannot be allowed to disappear into history as a myth.

American history long term will NOT hide the truth that Donald Trump was engaged in criminal activity, and will be seen in history as a traitor, and will face ultimate punishment no matter how much MAGA Republicans work to deny reality!

The Upcoming Alabama Gubernatorial Race In 2026

Ronald Leave a comment

The first in a series of articles analyzing 2026 races for Governor and the US Senate will be on the Alabama Gubernatorial Race.

With Republican Governor Kay Ivey ineligible to run for a third term, the Republican nominee will be present US Senator Tommy Tuberville, with his Democratic opponent being former three year Senator Doug Jones.

Tuberville, a former renowned football coach, most notably at Auburn University, but also at three other institutions, ran for the Senate in 2020, and defeated Doug Jones, who had won the seat to finish the term of former Senator Jeff Sessions, who had become Attorney General under Donald Trump in 2017.

Jones had a distinguished background as a federal prosecutor, who became most noted for successful prosecution of two Ku Klux Klan members for the infamous Birmingham Church Bombing in 1963, which caused the death of four African American girls, accomplishing this nearly four decades later. He was the only recent Democrat to hold office in recent times, as Alabama had become highly Republican, and remains so.

So this is a second time of these two men opposing each other, with Tuberville gaining a reputation of being an extreme MAGA Republican, supportive of everything Donald Trump espouses. He has often uttered outrageous statements and beliefs, and shocked many by his persona.

It will be difficult for Jones to triumph in this Senate race, but if anyone can be perceived as having the potential to do so, it is Doug Jones, who this author and blogger highly respects!

Health Care Costs Will Skyrocket, And SNAP (Food Stamps) Will Be Cut Dramatically Next Month: The Height Of Cruelty And Loss Of Humanity!

Ronald 8 Comments

With four weeks to go until the New Year 2026, it is totally clear and obvious that we are going to witness a massive, skyrocketing increase in health care costs for tens of millions of Americans, thereby denying many of any ability to have health insurance coverage, and insuring the deaths of severely sick and disabled people of all ages.

Additionally, SNAP (Food Stamp) benefits will be cut dramatically, as the Trump Administration is working to crack down and deny basic food sustenance to millions of people who will starve and damage their health, all over the government demanding detailed records from “Blue” states on the background of recipients, as part of the plan to increase deportation rapidly of those considered “undesirable” from a whole slew of nations.

These actions are cruelty and demonstrate total lack of humanity and compassion by a government more evil than America has ever witnessed.

The Republican Party in Congress has totally failed at caring about the future of millions of Americans, with their refusal to challenge Donald Trump, and do the right, moral, ethical action on both of these issues!

So sadly, it seems unavoidable to recognize that the Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare) is likely to be in death spiral, at least until the Democrats, hopefully, regain control of Congress in 2026, still a long shot, particularly in the US Senate.

But even then, Donald Trump can use the veto power and deny millions of Americans basic health care, and also ignore food support for the poor and disadvantaged!

Republican Party Splintering As Doubts About Keeping Majority In Congress Escalates!

Ronald 1 Comment

The sudden resignation of Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greeene of Georgia from the House of Representatives, and her denunciation of Donald Trump, and the threats from MAGA supporters after Trump denounced her, is causing a split in the Republican Party.

It is leading to strong rumors that other Republicans in the House of Representatives are planning to announce their retirement, as it seems clear that Donald Trump has no regard for them and their needs.

So many have bowed down to Trump consistently, while economic problems multiply, and foreign policy issues cause a massive split among many officeholders in the party.

Midterm elections ordinarily see a major swing to the party NOT in the White House, and Democrats, despite their own internal turmoil, are more likely now than ever after the recent elections in Virginia, New Jersey, California, and local races in several states, including Pennsylvania, to regain control of the House of Representatives in the Midterm Elections of 2026.

Additionally, the possibility of the US Senate switching to Democratic control is growing, although it will be a tough battle.

Speculation Begins About Successor To Donald Trump Among MAGA Republicans, As His “Lame Duck” Status Has Begun!

Ronald 5 Comments

One year since the Presidential Election of 2024, and Donald Trump is facing defeats, challenges, losses, and is no longer seen as invulnerable.

Marjorie Taylor Greene, a “true believer”, has denounced Trump for abandoning many of the ideas that he promoted in the campaign, and she is not the only one who is starting to rebel against the concept that Donald Trump is invulnerable.

And rumors and gossip is spreading about who will succeed Trump, as the term “lame duck” has started to permeate political discussions.

Of course, Vice President JD Vance is the theoretical successor, and might end up in the White House, as Donald Trump continues to deteriorate mentally, and as his unpredictable behavior multiplies.

But even if that happens, it is not a guarantee that Vance would be the heir of MAGA Republicans, as there are too many ambitious people to claim that Vance is a shoo in for 2028.

Among those who seem likely to compete are:

Eric Trump, the President’s younger son from his first marriage

Secretary of State Marco Rubio

Senator Ted Cruz of Texas

Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida

Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky

But there are others as well, including

Governor Glenn Youngkin of Virginia

Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas

Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri

Trump Threats To Execute Political Opponents Escalating The Constitutional Crisis That Trump Represents!

Ronald 3 Comments

Donald Trump, crazily, has accused Democratic political opponents in Congress of sedition, punishable by death, because of them stating that soldiers in the military do not have to obey illegal orders against the Constitution of the United States. They swear allegiance to the Constitution, not to a particular President or administration.

Six lawmakers, Senators Mark Kelly of Arizona Navy) and Elissa Slotkin of Michigan (CIA and Department Of Defense analyst), and House members Jason Crow of Colorado (Army), Chris DeLuzio of Pennsylvania (Navy), Maggie Goodlander of New Hampshire (Navy), and Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania (Air Force) reacted in condemnation, and now face death threats perpetrated by Trump’s denunciation of them.

This threat by Trump is “an alarm bell in the night”, a danger sign that the nation is moving ever closer to an authoritarian Fascist dictatorship, if the Republican Party in Congress, and the Supreme Court majority do not react in fierce opposition!

It is clear that Donald Trump is “running scared”, as he suffers defeats in federal courts, and has his own MAGA Republicans backing away from him regarding the Epstein Scandal, where he was forced to give in, as a few courageous Republicans defied him in wanting to release the records.

The entire Congress has gone along on wanting the revelation of who was involved in the abuse of young women and girls by wealthy and powerful individuals, including Donald Trump himself!

Momentous Day: Robert F. Kennedy Centennial And Joe Biden’s 83rd Birthday!

Ronald Leave a comment

Today, November 20, is a momentous day, as it is the Centennial of the birth of Robert K. Kennedy, former Attorney General, US Senator, and Democratic Presidential contender in 1968 before his tragic assassination.

It is also the 83rd Birthday of former President Joe Biden, who saw RFK as his model, being 17 years older, but sharing the same birthday.

Biden had a bust of RFK on his desk in the White House, and it was always evident when he was sitting and being interviewed on camera.

Joe Biden is under constant attack by Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans, but he will be rated much higher in history than Donald Trump could ever hope for.

Biden is a President who is not fully appreciated, but already is in the mid teens in ratings of Presidents, such as the Siena College Research Institute Poll of 2022 and the American Political Science Association Poll of 2024, while Trump is last or near last in both surveys.

This is a day to celebrate for both Robert F. Kennedy and Joe Biden, but also sad that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, the namesake of his father, has so disgraced his family name by his lunatic behavior as Secretary of Health and Human Services for Donald Trump, as well as his disgraceful personal behavior throughout his life, indicating a low standard of ethics and morals!

Magnificent Victory On All Fronts, And Repudiation Of Trump And MAGA!

Ronald 31 Comments

American Democracy survives, as on Election Day 2025, there was a magnificent victory on all fronts by Democrats, everywhere one looked!

From the victory of a Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani as New York City Mayor, to a moderate centrist Democrat Abigail Spanberger in Virginia and Mikie Sherrill in New Jersey elected as Governors, to a 2-1 victory for the Proposition of reapportionment of House seats in California, and even the retention of three state Supreme Court Justices in Pennsylvania, Democrats revived after the tragedy of the Presidential Election of 2024.

The Democratic Party showed its diversity, with a Muslim NYC Mayor, and Women Governors with military background in Virginia and New Jersey!

With all of the disillusionment the Democrats have gone through this past year since Donald Trump was elected, the reality remains that the Democratic Party IS “the party of the people”, of all backgrounds, and its diversity is its strength!

The Republican Party has become a party of sycophants to an authoritarian Fascist dictator wannabe, who is mentally deficient, mean spirited, cruel, heartless, and promoting an attack on democracy and the rule of law.

The Republicans are primarily a party of those who promote racism, nativism, misogyny, antisemitism, Islamophobia, and homophobia, allowing extremist white supremacist Christianity to become its central message, even though Donald Trump is, most certainly, totally irreligious!

All News Outlets Except One Refuse New Pentagon Media Restrictions!

Ronald 1 Comment

Pete Hegseth, Secretary of Defense (or War insisted by him and Donald Trump) has pushed out all access to Pentagon information, by forcing all journalists to leave their long determined rights to have ability to question and investigate what is going on in our government, regarding military matters and national security.

Except for the one case of One America News, an extremist right wing MAGA Republican news outlet, ALL other news and journalistic websites and their reporters no longer will be able to gain information, except through outside connections, undermining the idea of a government accountable to the population of the nation. Corruption and abuse will flourish as a result!

So 40 news outlets, from left wing to right wing, including
Fox News
Newsmax Media
Daily Caller
Washington Examiner
(all right wing oriented)
join other, more reputable outlets including
NBC News
ABC News
CBS News
CNN
MSNBC
Associated Press
The Economist
The Guardian
The Hill
Huffington Post
New York Times
Los Angeles Times
NPR
PBS Newshour
Politico
Real Clear Politics
Wall Street Journal
Washington Post,
Washington Times
and numerous lesser known news outlets in their unity against the Pentagon mandate!

This is massive interference with Freedom of the Press!

Massive Loss Of Federal Workers A Crime Against American Prosperity And Security!

Ronald 2 Comments

The ongoing massive loss of Federal Workers in a multitude of agencies, and the shutting down of various agencies, is a crime against American economic security, and a massive threat to American national security!

Many Americans may think that federal workers, many of them civil service, are insignificant in the daily lives of the nation, but nothing could be further from the truth and reality.

Many of these government workers may not be noticed in a direct sense, but they make all of our lives much more stable, secure, and humane.

The gutting of government agencies, such as USAID, FEMA, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and the Department of Education, and others, undermines the ability of the nation to continue its mission of protection of the vulnerable, whether national or international.

The effect on government workers, who are in larger numbers in Washington DC, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia, is already being felt in the rapidly rising unemployment rates in those communities.

Many of these talented workers have devoted their lives to government service, or have recently entered federal service with a commitment to do good, and now, their talents and abilities are lost to the nation and its future.

This is a tragedy of massive proportions, as now, loyalty to Donald Trump and MAGA Republican ideals dominates, instead of competence, decency, integrity, and the vast institutional knowledge of tens of thousands of dedicated federal workers.

This will undermine the American future, both in domestic and foreign policy, and the damage done will be lost for an eternity, and we have to hope and pray it will not do harm to the American Republic in the long term!
