It is Independence Day in these United States. This holiday is bitterly ironic given the current state of brazen fascism in America as the Trance Regime continues to dismantle institutional norms. Meanwhile, politicians wring their hands as they capitulate to the felonious Predator in Chief and his minions. Senator Lisa Murkowski has ensured that her …

The big bogus boondoggle
It seems that as surely as night follows day, the rich will oppress the poor. Today the U.S. Senate chose to continue that malignant tradition by voting in favor of the "Big Beautiful Bill" which would more aptly be called "The Big Bogus Boondoggle," because of its brazen transfer of wealth from the poor and …

On the wrong side of history…again
I moved to the town of Blue Ridge, TX just before I turned 12 years old back in the late winter of 1984. It didn't take long for the secretary of the First Baptist Church (FBC) of Blue Ridge to knock on our door to invite us to come to the church. A few months …
Full blown fascism
Back when Donald Trump entered his first race as a presidential candidate, it was clear to many of us what kind of presidential administration he would have were he to inexplicably win the election. During that campaign I had begun work on my Master's thesis which would later become my first book and in the …

Grab your pruners, we’re overwhelmed by brambles
The Trance Regime has been in place for just over 100 awful days now. The current felonious occupant of the presidential mansion has seen his approval ratings drop to historic lows as the fallout begins from the regime's disastrous economic policies. The unimaginably cruel immigration policies, the brainchild of arch-xenophobe Stephen Miller, are finally starting …

Creation care and honoring Pope Francis
"Give us this day our daily bread." - Jesus of Nazareth "But let justice roll down like water and righteousness from an ever-flowing stream."
