Why Joe Biden Must Dump Bipartisanship And Declare War On the Insurrection-- (Originally written and posted May 13, 2021)  ["I'm tired of hearing the term "voter suppression." It's not just that. It's election "cancellation." The GOP is legislating the framework for "legally" overturning election results by state legislatures, not just making it harder to vote. I am thoroughly disgusted with the lame and superficially objective mainstream language our media chooses to use in describing what we are living through.  This strategy of the GOP consists of policies which your "centrist" Democrats like Manchin and Sinema are conceding to the Trump-led obstructionists by refusing to reform the fillibuster in the name of "bipartisan cooperation."  Corporate shill Manchin is reminiscent of the German politicians who enabled Adolf Hitler by choosing to mediate a center path between the Nazis and the various Christian and Catholic ...

  "Who is Liz Cheney, Really"? May 12, 2021 During the turbulent early "00's" when my wife Martha and I were full time political operators, we were knee deep in a national campaign to Impeach then Vice-President Dick Cheney. I personally raised more than a million dollars in contributions large and small to fund it, and travelled throughout the US on fundraising and organizing tours. Martha was out in public organizing large numbers of people for the same thing.  You might remember that the context was the extreme and lawless attack on the US Constitution by the "Cheney-Bush Administration" (note the order)  in the aftermath of 9-11. There were the overt fabrications of Intelligence to blame Iraq and Sadaam Hussein for the attacks, false claims of Iraqi WMD, fake evidence of Yellow Cake and Aluminum Tubes, supposed secret meetings between Iraqi Intelligence and 9-11 hijacker Muhammad Atta beforehand. There were attempts to force CIA to sign off on fabr...

 Former US Attorney General Ramsey Clark passed away at 93 years old this week. I had the opportunity to meet him once at a human rights event, and was tangentially involved in one of his several high profile cases, the details of which I will keep private. It was one of the cases that he drew huge criticism for taking, and I was one of the people who was part of a fundraising team which raised the money for his retainer, as it was an appeal of a Federal conviction which went eventually to the Supreme Court. (they wouldn't hear it)  People that I worked with knew him personally, and I heard a number of stories about him which displayed his real depth of character. Ironically, he was someone whose politics at times I deeply opposed, but I had nothing but respect for him. He went head to head with the racist tyrant FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover on matters of justice, law and principle. Ramsey had no skeletons in his closet and was beyond Hoover's type of blackmail.  He often...
