Let's get it out there, as the kids in my 1960s youth would exclaim 'Damn Straight'!! All those fellow citizens of mine who still drink the Trump led Republican Party Kool-Aid, shame on you! Goddamn it, they just followed the leader and made sure the Super Rich got...

When you find out the woman you have loved for 32 years is terminal, reality sets in completely. The evil fed beast of greed, selfishness and lack of empathy stands there through the camera lens, with such arrogance. One wonders how the MAGA WORLD feels today when...

The group of Ascended Masters stood outside of the station. As the train pulled in it was Jesus The Anointed One who spoke first. "Fellow Masters, take a good look at this sight, for this is the reason we are all down here." This was Purgatory, the only place other...

I met David in sixth grade. We seemed to hit if off from the start. I had forgotten that we played against each other in Little League. Funny how some things escape us while other, more insignificant ones, stay with us seemingly forever. Not only were the two of us in...

John Lennon, prolific as a writer as much as a performer, wrote this: Working Class Hero As soon as you're born they make you feel small By giving you no time instead of it all Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all A working class hero is something to be A...

In Eric Kurlander's 2017 book Hitler's Monsters he sums up the whole 'Fuehrer Messiah Complex' in a nutshell: "In the Nazi version of history and politics, Hitler figured as a redeemer who would save the German nation and lead a godly realm to an ultimate victory over...

When you're a five year old you really don't know what is occurring away from your focus. There I was, a little boy from the streets of Brooklyn, NY, USA now transported to some farm in the country. That meant upstate NY with all kinds of animals flowing by me like in...

A must see for everyone concerned about the state of our Republic is Petra Costa's 2024 documentary Apocalypse in the Tropics. Ms. Costa captures the essence of the far right wing evangelical movement in Brazil that pushed Jair Bolsonaro into the presidency in 2018....

Before one can tell a tale properly one needs to go further back in time. Five years before I was born my mother gave birth to a dead child. She carried the fetus for the entire term and then, horrifically, the baby strangled on the umbilical cord and was delivered...

Amazing how so many so called 'Good Christians' don't know squat about the man they worship as their redeemer. Those people have been encamped inside the MAGA tent that they obviously forgot, or never knew, what the man from Nazareth taught: "Let each of you look not...

It was 80 years ago that George Orwell's book Animal Farm was published. The last words of the book sum up what we now have been experiencing in Amerika: "The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again, but already it was...

I realize that many of my neighbors decided to follow the leader, not once, but now twice, and elect this craziness. All that I ask is that those of you who are NOT very wealthy, and are working stiffs like this writer, to look closely at this Trump Train. While you...

The US Army, perhaps in need of more ‘boots on the sand’, is revving up its ad campaigns. The latest television ad says it plain and clear: Warriors Wanted! And why not just appeal to the childlike, video game raised young men and women to join up? Then they can get...

Having someone close to me with a severe mental condition as the needles of American Fascism penetrate my psyche is much too much. The boob tube lies to me about what Israel is doing to Gaza and now Iran. Having neighbors surrounding me who are either oblivious to...

Interesting how we have three countries that are led by people who don't know a rat's ass about their Creator. Look at what develops when all those hypocrites assume power and influence. My nation has not just a MAGA movement, but an infiltration by so called 'Lovers...

...on January 6th, 2021 at the Capitol Building, NOT in Los Angeles! It must be difficult, Donald, to keep getting instructions from your core of Neo Fascist minions (or is it handlers?) like the new Goebbels Stephen Miller and the new Himmler Steve Bannon. Or was it...

I just returned from the supermarket. Was in the produce section checking out the lemons. A shopper  was nearby, a 60 something woman who was dressed like myself in a strictly working class attire . I remarked how the lemons were highly priced and  " You need a...

He was my dad, and he most likely never had a chance for a better life. He was born in 1915 to a Sicilian father and Neapolitan mother, both immigrants. When Alphonse was ten, he lost all his teeth from  gum disease. Then, at seventeen, at the onset of the Great...

For decades this writer has been getting flak from friends and associates for my belief that this life is nothing but a dream. My readings of Indian yogi and mystic Yogananda reveal how the Hindus and other Eastern religions hold this to be true: The 3rd dimension we...

In 1973 I was still a somewhat naive college senior ready to face the business world. My major had been in Speech and Theater, with a minor in Sociology. As the year was ending and the new one upon us, I was engaged to be married and needed to find secure employment....

It was a hot, sunny Saturday afternoon in late May, 1970. I always went to the 5 PM Mass at  St Edmunds Catholic Church to avoid the regular crowds. Once there I stood in my usual place, which was back by the exit door. This day there was this other guy standing right...
