  • Why Right Wing Movements Cannot Govern

    Countries and states run by right wing movements tend to be poorer in health, quality of life, safety, security, education and wealth, and many have weak or even moribund economies. Why is it that right wing movements seem peculiarly unable to govern, uniquely unqualified to solve the very problems that their own populations are crying…

  • If You Don’t Understand What MAGA Is

    … then your chances of defeating it drop substantially. A quote attributed to Stephen King on Bluesky reads: “Republicans: When are you going to stop supporting Trump and start supporting America?” You don’t get it. They think that Trump IS America. More specifically, they believe that Trump is their pathway to establishing the cruel, brutal,…

  • The Illusion Created By Shock and Awe

    (Or, the System is bearing up, once cool heads figure things out) The orderly legislative and executive behavior of old, constrained by familiar, conventional decency and norms, has long been easily addressed by the mountains of jurisprudence and judicial precedent that has been built up over many decades — case histories built up and upon…

  • Why MAGA Hates FEMA (It’s Yet Another Case of The Accusation Is The Confession)

    This piece writes its own lede paragraph: Despite an ongoing Austrian police investigation, due entirely to the heroic efforts of Austrian Journalist Jane Burgermeister, http://birdflu666.wordpress.com, Baxter still has the contract to supply its deadly ‘vaccines’ all over the world; i.e. to be forced into YOU! Yes, FORCED upon us under threat of being “quarantined” within…

  • The Dark New Turn in MAGA’s Censorship Crusades

    My last piece exposed MAGA’s hatred for the one of the fiercest advocates of the First Amendment, the American Library Association. However, the recent change in the character and nature of today’s MAGA book bans should be cause for alarm, as they are warning signs of a rerun of Nazi Germany on our own American…

  • MAGA Hates the American Library Association

    Who woulda thunk it? MAGA, the self-described champions and guardians of the Constitution, free speech, and the First Amendment hate the guts of the American Library Association (ALA). Why? Because the ALA is one of the fiercest defenders and advocates of the First Amendment on the planet. Few things make MAGA’s blood boil hotter than…

  • War Is Expensive

    During World War 2, civilians and institutions understood the importance of contributing to the war effort. They sacrificed, they conserved precious resources, and they contributed monetarily by purchasing what were then called War Bonds. Civilians, corporations, and institutions invested their own efforts and resources to the war effort, as they knew that our way of…

  • First Amendment 3: The Official “Christian Nation” That We Never Became

    (Third of a series that will counter highly organized MAGA disinformation about the Constitution that has been sweeping the nation.) It’s a lie that we’ve heard repeated a million times since 1990, yet one that the mainstream media (MSM) has never bothered or dared to debunk – like ever. “America was founded as a Christian…

  • First Amendment 2: The Constitutional Separation of Church and State

    (Second of a series that will counter highly organized MAGA disinformation about the Constitution that has been sweeping the nation.) Thanks to 35 years of MAGA disinformation about the history of our nation and our Constitution, more than half of Americans today incorrectly believe that our Founding Fathers had intended our country to have an…

  • First Amendment 1: The Redress of Grievances – and MAGA’s Hostility to Redress

    (First of a series that will counter highly organized MAGA disinformation about the Constitution that has been sweeping the nation.) The rights enumerated by the First Amendment include the right “to petition the government for a redress of grievances.” It’s a simple concept: if the actions of your government cause you harm, injury, or deprivation…

  • Democrats: You Had BETTER Reclaim Leadership in Constitutional Law and Civics Education, like RIGHT NOW.

    Just when I thought I knew most all of the far right, pro-fascist Web sites out there, I come across this rather new one that lays bare the threat to our liberties and makes imperative the need to retake the fields of Civics and Constitutional Law with an urgency that I have never seen. If…

  • We’re Not a Monarchy; We’re a Constitutional Republic

    If you’ve discussed or debated politics, chances are that you’ve come across a MAGA who flexed his asserted political acumen with statements like “We’re not a democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic.” That’s true, in fact, if “democracy” is taken to mean direct, unrestrained democracy in which a 50% plus one majority gets its way…

  • Don’t Let MAGA Use Your Decency Against You

    Or, Don’t Fall for MAGA’s Mind Games I’m sure that you’ve been gaslit before by MAGA’s talking-point judo. They will demand that you show inclusiveness toward them, so that they can more openly exclude others.  They will insist that you be fair to them, so that they can more easily be unfair to others.  They…

  • Wait a Minute! I Thought MAGA Believed in “Free Speech on College Campus!”

    We all knew that was a self-serving line of bull, but now it has proven itself to be such. The latest university to cave to Trump’s and MAGA’s war on campus free speech is Columbia University. One of MAGA’s censorship attempts is stifling the free speech rights of pro-Palestinian students. It wasn’t so long ago…

  • MAGA is Literally Erasing the Humanity of Anyone Who Isn’t White, Straight, and Aryan

    Where have we seen this movie before? In 1940s black-and-white newsreels, of course. While the outrage of the week may be MAGA’s removal of the famous WWII photo of raising the American Flag on Iwo Jima because it was “DEI,” this is just the latest of MAGA’s long march down the Nazi Germany path. Remember:…

  • A Quick Clarity and Reality Check on “Women’s Sports”

    Let’s cut right to the truth: MAGA’s scaremongering about trans women in women’s sports is another shiny object that does not require a big-government “remedy.” It’s just another MAGA way of persecuting a small, vulnerable minority while hiding behind a marquee of superficial “reasonableness.” It is competitive sports itself, not government, that identifies and addresses…

  • Circulating on Social Media: A real question from a Trump supporter: ‘Why do liberals think Trump supporters are st*pid?’

    There is a post circulating on social media that is useful but copies of it have broken links. I have fixed the links. A real question from a Trump supporter: ‘Why do liberals think Trump supporters are st*pid?’ THE SERIOUS ANSWER: Here’s what the majority of anti-Trump voters honestly feel about Trump supporters en masse:…
