On The Matter Of Trump's Demand To Be Re-instated Most Americans, including even the most passionate and informed of Donald Trump's Democratic opposition among both citizens and the media, are thoroughly "out to lunch" with regard to the significance of his statement. It is a case of hysterical blindness as a mass phenomenon, in which something is standing directly in front of them, unobstructed in full view, and yet they see it not, afflicted with a form of synaptic break.  https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-demand-2020-election-overturn-b2160447.html?amp Those who are writing about this, and who are reading this coverage, are approaching a new stage of willful self-delusion, choosing to believe that Trump is flailing, desperate, frightened, raving, trying to hype his supporters to keep the money coming in, trying to distract, divert, and deflect from his collapsing legal position, or some other narrative which all leads to the predom...

An Open Letter To Senator Mitch McConnell-- If You Have Any Humanity Left, Resign Now-- But Do The Right Thing First To: Senator Mitch McConnell Washington DC c/o Rayburn  Senate Office Building Cc: Republican National Committee, Senator Charles Schumer Honorable Senator McConnell, Respectfully, I'm writing to you on behalf of myself and concerned citizens of all political backgrounds regarding your personal culpability for our current existential crisis. In August of 2020, it was clear to the majority of Americans that the greatest threat to our national security, our economic future, health and general welfare was both embodied and driven by the self-serving criminal intentions of then sitting President Donald Trump, and the growing fascist movement which metastasized behind his misleadership. This was equally understood by a majority of your Republican Party's leadership, who unfortunately had decided the year before to capitulate to their own moral cowardice and enable him....

Some Thoughts On How Organize And Lead In A Time Of Crisis-- Be Subjective, Or "The Facts" Alone Won't Register-- (Part 3 of a series)  September 4, 2022 Little Old Me, A Leader? Pffft! Many Americans of conscience now feel impelled to take their first steps to get active in a campaign, one which is a desperate effort to defend our system of democracy. We all heard what our President said on Thursday, and the green light has gone on for most of us. For people struggling with what to do in these circumstances, here is where I think I can help. This despite the fact that I have no tactical campaign advice or manual for what to do. We've never been here before.  It's a mindset, and it's a venture into the unknown. For today, I'll try to be a Virgil to your Dante, and give you a guided tour through the minds of the people we are both fighting and trying to organize.   Nobody is on point all of the time. Like most people I have occasional rough days. And as I...

I'll Keep Writing About Things Most Of Us Don't Want to Think About-- September 3, 2022 Who doesn't see what lies ahead in Pennsylvania? Or, who wants to? Incel Mastriano will likely lose to Shapiro by a narrow margin, but will refuse to accept certification of the vote or any court rulings on the matter. As sure as I know my name, I can see him organizing and leading a heavily armed group of white supremacist militias, many of which will come from throughout the US, and attempt to seize the Governorship by force. This will be the Trump insurrection's "Fort Sumter."  Remember that Pennsylvania sent many bus loads of terrorists to January 6th, and they mostly came from Central PA, Mastriano's base. He paid for the buses and was there. Remember also that Ron DeSantis came to PA personally to campaign for him, and as is known, his state of Florida had the greatest number of terrorists in attendance that day, and the most people charged with crimes of any stat...

The Big Story Is Biden's Attack On MAGA As "Semi-Fascism"-- The Break I've Been Waiting And Hoping For-- Is This The Political Course Correction We Have Needed? Almost lost in the high density coverage of the Trump stolen documents drama and the intense debate over the administration's moves on student debt, was the speech given this week in which President Biden delivered an unprecedented (for him) blast at the "MAGA Republicans," as "semi-fascism." https://www.cbsnews.com/news/biden-maga-republicans-semi-fascism/ As to be expected, the psychotic Trumpworld media is exploding in both phony outrage and euphoric glee, now that Joe has delivered them their new Hillary-style "deplorables" quote with which to further consolidate their brainwash program over their zombie followers. Fox and Newsmax have subsequently broken new ground in using the airwaves to turn their viewers into rabid Hyenas. Although this is an expected reaction, it is ...

I have two research projects underway which I want to concentrate on.  I'm working on a short series on Shakespeare's Othello and Lear, the introduction to which was already posted a week or so ago. Additionally there are two other pieces I want and need to write. First is a report with my assessment on the coming explosion of targeted anti-semitic violence,  which will dovetail with the rising threat of a MAGA-world armed insurgency against the Federal government and "wokism." The process of nazification of MAGA and the GOP has reached a threshold, and there are a number of inflection points in the near future for such escalated violence. I'll be writing about "who and what" comprises this extremely dangerous organized insurgency. The degree to which this terrorism will emerge from various nazified churches will be both unsettling and pose a great dilemma for us.  By way of introduction, it's useful when in reflecting upon great conflicts to remembe...

A "Bubble-Popping" Facebook Memory Which Drives Home How Little We Are Doing Relative To What Is Needed-- This Facebook post from me copied below was from two years ago, and it was in the context of the Durham probe which was launched by William Barr against the Bidens in response to demands by Trump. The intention was to launch a series of "October Surprise" indictments to disrupt the election. This was one very live scenario against which numbers of observers had warned, and which I reported on. Another was the January 6th attack on the Capitol, the white supremacists rebellion against which I also warned a year and a half in advance.  The Durham investigation did not deliver indictments before the election as Trump wanted, and eventually fizzled. William Barr bailed out on Trump at the end because he was  fearful of his blatantly illegal demands and general mental instability. But I guarantee that in the future, if there is a MAGA President, there will be no one ...
