The Hollowing-Out of Rex Tillerson (#61)

Rex Tillerson was not a very strong Secretary of State from the day of his appointment. From the very first, he did not exert his authority as a man of substance, though he was, as the long term Chief Executive of one of the World’s largest corporations, Texas-based Exxon Corp. From the day of his appointment as Secretary of State, America’s top Diplomat, Rex Tillerson acted as a low ranking employee in the Trump administration, pushed around, regularly contradicted and there

America’s Nemesis – Trump (#60)

As one watches the daily turbulence and turmoil in America generated by one man alone, the President of the United State, Donald J. Trump, enabled by the morally challenged Republicans, one cannot but help but think the Americans deserve the government they currently have, one that widens the rich and poor gap, penalizes the poor in favor of giving advantages to the wealthy, strips consumer protection, allow greater destruction of the environment, won’t act on common sense so

V.P. Mike Pence - President in Waiting? (#59)

American Vice President Mike Pence professes to be a man of God, and as such he knows the 'Lord' has a 'Plan' for his life, and that plan is ultimately to be the President of the United States. For that day Mike Pence works tirelessly, in humility, bearing all the scorn of the President, the majority of Americans, and the World, as he, without protest or shirking, goes about his daily task of defending the indefensible, blithely overlooking the unacceptable, excusing the inex

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

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

Russian 'Dirt' on Clinton - Burying Trump & Team (#52)

Allegations of Trump’s Campaign having colluded with the Russians to defeat Hillary Clinton in the 2016 Presidential Election, have been discussed and investigated from the start of Trump’s Presidency. During all these months of Hearings and Investigations, there was a lot of smoke but little to no fire, which frustrated lawmakers and the public alike. And while seemingly circumstantial evidence kept piling-up, and speculation ran rampant, there was nothing concrete enough t

An American Mass Murder So Horrific - ISIS wants to own it! (#50)

Since the mass murder in Las Vegas last night, an act of internal terror, the American news has been tying itself in knots trying to understand why a seemingly ordinary (a supposed real estate millionaire not a disenfranchised struggling angry American), retired 64 years old from a ‘sleepy’ town in Nevada, would massacre ordinary pleasure seeking fellow Americans, at a Country Western Music Concert in the city of pleasure itself, Las Vegas. So far neither the news media, nor

Kaepernick Takes-A-Knee, Trump Takes On The Constitution (#49)

To get the answer to the question raging currently, we would need to look at the Constitution of the United States of America as it lays out the founding Principles upon which America depends to know the right behavior for U.S. Government, and its citizens. The United States is most proud of its enlightened Constitution, as it should be. The American Constitution was brilliantly crafted to uplift all citizens under its purview, most of whom had arrived from the 'Old Country',

The Speech That Confirmed Trump (#48)

On Tuesday the 19th, September 2017, the 45th President of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump, gave his first speech to the United Nations (U.N.). The U.N. was a body formed after the global horror of the First and Second World Wars, to bring Nations together to resolve disputes and conflicts through dialogue, diplomacy, and negotiations, and to try its utmost to avoid the recurring horrors of inter-national wars, unnecessary violence and bloodshed. It was also tas

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

As Irma batters her way up Florida and beyond, and Harvey’s floods barely subside in Texas and Jose follows in Irma’s wake, talk is all about hurricanes and their increasing strength and frequency, and the potential for damage these natural events and disasters pose. And while events in the U.S. get an inordinate amount of coverage and importance, as compared to similar events in other parts of the World, the truth is natural disasters in the East, especially in Asia, where t

Trump Burning the White House (#45)

Around the World, the White House has become the iconic symbol of power of America, as recognizable as the Statute of Liberty. For two centuries the building has been the symbol and seat of 'American Power' as the residence and working space of the most powerful man in the World. And from that building has emanated some of the most significant moments in American history as each President led America onward towards its eventual greatness the World has come to acknowledge, and

North Korea’s Challenge to Trump (#42)

When Donald Trump became President-elect of the United States of America, he let the World know that he would not allow North Korea to conduct any more missile tests. In fact, early this year and days before his Inauguration, upon being told that North Korea planned to carry out a missile test, he stated emphatically, by twitter, “It won’t happen!”. Well, it did happen, and many times. In fact so many times that Kim Jung-un, the Leader of North Korea, made a mockery of Trump

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

America’s Self Inflicted Wounds (#40)

The shooting at the Republican team baseball practice shocked the United States of America. The rest of the World was stunned by the incident but probably not that surprised, because internal ‘shootings’ have become an American thing, in the eyes of the developed World at least. Yes, far more gun related violence takes place in some of the Latin/South America countries, war torn countries of Middle East and North Africa, a few Eastern European countries, and in Asian countrie

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

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
