Tuesday, April 9, 2019Will Digital Ballot Images Help Protect the 2020 Election? As the issues of ballot marking and imaging flow into the mix, the question of how to secure a reliable, verifiable vote count in 2020 and beyond will require a huge grassroots effort. In this century, with the likes of Donald Trump in the White House, Thomas Jefferson's warning that preserving democracy requires "eternal vigilance" remains an epic understatement.
Tuesday, April 2, 2019Three Mile Island's Murderous Legacy Still Threatens Us All All reacters heat the planet with massive steam and hot water emissions. Their cooling towers kill thousands of bats and birds. The heat, radiation, and chemicals spewed by their out-take pipes destroy entire marine ecosystems, including millions of fish. The radiation from Fukushima still pours into the Pacific.
Friday, March 15, 2019How Fukushima Nukes Kill Our Climate, Our Planet, Ourselves Eight years ago this week apocalyptic radiation clouds began pouring out of Fukushima. They haven't stopped. Nor have the huckster holocaust deniers peddling still more of these monsters of mass destruction. Some even deny the health impacts from Fukushima fallout that's already more than 100 times greater than Hiroshima and Nagasaki's.
Tuesday, January 8, 2019The Democrats Have Nowhere to Go but Left Since the Great Society sank into the Vietnam quagmire, the only major federal program meant to benefit the working/middle class has been Obamacare. The gap between rich and poor has become a bottomless pit. What matters now is substance. And it's coming from the post-corporate left.
Friday, December 28, 2018The Green New Deal Promises Peace and Progress. Will Nuclear Advocates Undermine it? The Green New Deal's most visible public advocate, newly elected 29-year-old U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Democrat of New York, has laid out a preliminary blueprint advocating an energy economy meant to be based entirely on "renewable" and "clean" sources. According to a report in The Hill, fossil fuels and nuclear power are "completely out" of her plan.
Wednesday, December 26, 2018The Empire Strikes Soon: Trump Exit's Great Leap Trump's insane decision to shut the government has shaken even many Republicans. That hate-crazed banshees like Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter could scream down the White House is a reality too terrifying even for many at Fox "News." Visuals of young innocents being tortured and murdered have moved the madness even deeper.
Monday, December 17, 2018How Long Till Trump Is Done? Like Nixon in the last days of Watergate, Trumputin has begun to twist in the wind. The Trumputin madness will get worse. Donald will do anything to stay out of prison, no matter what the cost to the planet or the rest of us. But the survival instincts of our species are strong, and the pushback mounts by the moment. This endgame will be a WILD ride.
Monday, December 10, 2018Is Michael Cohen Trumputin's Dead Meat? Are We? In the Trumputin world of organized crime, Michael Cohen has committed the ultimate betrayal: he's helped Robert Mueller prove beyond doubt that don Putin in the Kremlin put his very own bagman into the White House. Cohen is the ultimate mobster nightmare, the inside attorney who flips. Many a consigliere has died at Mafia hands for far less.
Tuesday, December 4, 2018The Two Magical Words That Could Have Trump Gone by Earth Day The Don Jr.-Eric-Ivanka-Kushner-Cohen-Manafort cabal has lied to Congress, the courts, and the people. More will arise as the Trump consiglieri flee the sinking ship. The real push must come from an awakened public, bouncing back at last with a rebirth of grassroots outrage and social democracy.
Friday, November 16, 2018Georgia & Florida MUST Have New Elections The infamously tainted elections in Georgia and Florida MUST be re-done while the whole world watches. These elections have been run by candidates who are running in them. There's no reason to have any confidence in any outcome. There's just one solution: New Elections. This time supervised by the United Nations, or some other neutral international body, under intense global scrutiny.
Wednesday, November 14, 2018California Apocalypse: Fire and Fury The path to security is narrowing. Breathe the air, look at your kids, think about being in a crowded public room, and know that the need for meaningful, powerful, and effective citizen action is more immediate than ever. In today's America, random mass murder has merged with ecological devastation.
Thursday, November 1, 2018Trump's Pittsburgh Holocaust Franklin Roosevelt lacked the courage and backbone to allow the Jewish refugees on the St. Louis into the United States. Their death is forever on his soul. Donald Trump has now whipped up the whirlwind that has slaughtered still more Jews in Pittsburgh. He intends to use this "Red Wave" of bigotry and violence to solidify a fascist regime that can only lead to more slaughter.
Sunday, October 28, 2018As Trump Sends Troops to the Southern Border, the Caravan Coup May Become His "October Surprise" and Reichstag Fire As the pipe bombs fly, Trump is set to open fire at the southern border, filling his concentration camps with innocent kids, spewing the same race-hating nationalism that's paved the way for so many fascists before him. This October, it's no surprise, just business as usual for the latest dictatorial thug.
Tuesday, July 17, 2018At the Trumputin Mob Summit, Fredo Kisses Much More Than Don Corleone's Ring The brutal, ruthless Putin is orders of magnitude more savvy and capable than the orange American. Globally, he is the mob boss Don Corleone, lording it over his addled son Fredo. Amidst Trump's Helsinki rant storm against US intelligence, Putin admitted he favored Trump in the 2016 election.
Wednesday, July 4, 201857 Unpatriotic Ways the Corp/Dems Have Enthroned Trumputin Wasserman writes: A revived Democratic party that can effectively oppose Trump demands an exciting collective vision that's worth fighting for.
Wednesday, June 27, 2018Court Approves Fascist Assault on Buddhists, Muslims, Catholics, Jews, Japanese-Americans, Whoever The US Supreme Court has approved Donald Trump's presumed dictatorial power to ban and imprison any would-be immigrant group he does not like. The Court's ruling clearly grants the power to any US president to ban any immigrant group for any reason. And it, by default, approves their detention in concentration camps, as Trump is now doing along the Mexican border.
Tuesday, June 19, 2018Immigrants & Muslims Are Trump's Jews ... Until He Comes for the Actual Jews The GOP will do to human children what the Nazis did. The Nazis claimed it was to "purify the race." Sessions says it's a "Biblical" obligation. No matter the pretext: if they can rip children from parents -- ANY children from ANY parents -- tase them, cage them, traumatize them for life, treat them like sub-humans ... they will absolutely do it to you and YOUR children ... or worse.
Saturday, May 26, 2018Trump Has Plenty of Accomplices in His Reckless Energy Policies Trump slammed the solar industry's growth by slapping a 30 percent tariff on imported Chinese panels, slowing installations nationwide. He's also contemplating using an obscure Korean War-era "emergency" ordinance that would let the government bail out money-losing coal and nuclear plants at the expense of renewables.
Tuesday, May 1, 2018The REAL Bosox Curse Was Racism, NOT the Bambino Just after World War II, the Red Sox shunned not one but TWO players as great as Babe Ruth. And it happened not just from stupidity, but also from explicitly stated racism. The two passed-over African Americans both went to New York, one to the Dodgers, the other to the Giants. Their names are hard for a Sox fan to say, but here they are: Jackie Robinson and Willie Mays.
Tuesday, May 1, 2018The REAL Bosox Cures Was Racism---NOT the Bambino The REAL Curse of the Bosox Was Racism---NOT the Bambino
