The Trump Inevitable Happened – Ignorance Trumped America (#80)
When a dangerously ignorant person is elected to the highest office in the land, the country is going to suffer grievously, sooner than later. At the end of the year, 2018, almost two years into Donald Trump’s Presidency, America is looking incredibly dysfunctional, corrupt, divided, and more as a ‘Banana Republic’ in its governance, than the leader of the Free World; and Trump is wholly responsible. This transformation, from a somewhat bruised but still respected World leade

The Growth of Insanity & Hate – In Trump’s America (#77)
America has been slowly but steadily coming off the rails for many a decade. But since Donald Trump’s Presidency, it is completely off the rails, and has become the ‘drunk’ at the Party that is destroying all norms of civil behavior much to the alarm and chagrin of the rest of the civilized, democratic World (not much of it left). Conversely, America’s self destructive behavior is causing great delight in its historic adversaries such as Russia, China, and the rest of the aut

John McCain, A Rare American Republican (#71)
Senator John McCain, an authentic American war hero, a man of great courage, strength and integrity, a life-long bipartisan public servant, a rare politician with character, and conscience, died on August 25th, 2018 after battling a rare case of aggressive brain cancer, a few days before his birthdate of August 29th, he was 81 years of age. The son and grandson of Navy Admirals, John McCain followed in the family tradition and became a distinguished navy pilot, receiving nume

Trump Doubles Down on Dismantling America (#58)
The America that Americans and the World knew no longer exists because of Trump’s latest actions. It is gone forever because of an unthinkable crossing of a line that had been held sacred by all previous Presidents and administrations. Trump, with the initiative and assistance of others in the Republican Party, has wilfully crossed the line of a President directly interfering in an ongoing FBI investigation, by openly discrediting and firing the senior most officials in the F

What a Trump State – Of the Union (#57)
The American political theatrics continued as Trump stoked the usual angst amongst all those that listened to him intone the tele-prompted State of the Union ('SOTU') address and acted ‘Presidential’ for the occasion. After this SOTU, Trump’s handlers, Republican law-makers of both Houses, and his supporters, all collectively breathed a sigh of relief and beamed their approval, because their President managed to stay on script, stuck to reading the teleprompter, didn’t flub t

Sexual Predation & American Politics (#55)
It is a sign of the times when a long standing universal problem, such as the sexual predatory behavior of men towards women, in America becomes a partisan issue, divided into Republican predators - and Democratic predators. The imminent election race for the U.S. Senate between Republican Judge Roy Moore and Democrat Doug Jones, is not being defined by the difference in their probable governing policies, but by the potential acceptance of an alleged sexual predator of teenag

America’s Gun-Virus – Thank God It’s Not Contagious (#53)
Americans are deeply infected with a particularly virulent strain of the gun-virus. It is a form of disease that makes otherwise normal American human beings love and value their guns over the lives of their fellow American human beings. This is made possible by America’s unique gun ownership laws (there aren’t many, to speak of) which are unique amongst developed countries, making it the gun murder capital amongst its peer nations. The steady almost clockwork rising toll of

North Korea, the Mouse that Roared (#47)
On June 25th, 1950, the Socialist North Korea, then a post World War II Soviet Union (Russia) satellite, invaded South Korea, with Russia’s backing. The United States of America (U.S.), leading the United Nations (U.N.) forces came to capitalist South Korea’s defense and pushed the invading North Korean forces well back into their territory. Then communist China intervened, sending in waves of troops that pushed the U.S. and U.N. forces back until a deal was made between Russ

The Nine Lives Of ‘ObamaCare’ & Death of ‘TrumpCare’ (#43)
After almost 8 years of consistent effort of trying to kill ObamaCare, Mitch McConnell, fellow Republican Senators, and now the newly added and always addled President Donald J. Trump, failed yet again, spectacularly, to ‘immediately Repeal and Replace ObamaCare’. Their frantic, bumbling, conscienceless Republican 'TrumpCare’ Bill, hastily prepared, in darkness, a Bill designed to hurt the ordinary, the weak and the infirm American, in favor of the rich despotic and the entit

Republican Crafted ‘TrumpCare’ – America Shafted Again (#41)
After hiding behind closed doors like boys up to no good and indulging in something shameful, the Republican leaders emerged after drafting a Healthcare Bill in the Donald’s own image that turned everything he had promised about healthcare into a Big Fat Lie. After all, it was he who not too long ago that stated emphatically, that his healthcare plan would cover everyone with far less cost than ObamaCare (hated by him and the Republican leadership, but liked by most everyone

Trump Jerks America Back – To the Past (#38)
Yesterday, June 1, 2017, at about 3.00 pm, President Donald J. Trump, announced, accompanied with his customary amateurish theatrics and dismal verbal flourishes, the obvious, that he was pulling America out of the Paris carbon emission mitigating ‘Agreement’ and marching it backwards. This was after teasing and titillating the entire World for a week in suspenseful silence, after his return from his foreign trip, as he supposedly reflected deeply on the planet changing choic

The Selling of America (#36)
The Republicans have sold America to commercial and political interests, domestic and foreign, to the point of significant setbacks for American credibility globally, with Donald Trump in the role of the battering ram that slams in daily incredulous sanity defying dents into what was once a recognizable America. It is quite extraordinary to watch the active betrayal of America’s interest, be it in policies that undermine the healthcare of the majority; or financial and consum

Dictatorship American-Style (#35)
Donald Trump acts to protect himself and his associates from an ever encroaching FBI led investigation that was perhaps getting to close for comfort. So he fired James Comey, Director of the FBI, who refused to publicly exonerate him, and was the man who was heading the investigation into Trump and his associates, and their relationships with Russia. To fire the man that is investigating you is a rare privilege that Trump the President was not shy to exploit, even if it broke

ObamaCare → TrumpCare → RyanCare → NoOneCare (#29)
The American Health-Care system is one of the worst in the developed World. It ranks consistently far down the list of the best developed and even some under-developed country’s health care systems. And it’s not cheap, in fact it’s one of the most expensive per capita, yet, it belongs to the richest, most powerful, and one of the most innovative problem solving countries in the World.
