No more excuses.
The criminal fascist Trump regime is murdering people. The most recent was an innocent woman who was gunned down in broad daylight in front of witnesses by a fascist ICE agent. In response, the leader of the Department of Homeland Security put a placard on her podium that read, "One of Ours All of Yours" …
A Note on Anti-Christian Actions and Christian Persecution
Evangelical Christians in America have for decades been crying "Persecution!" whenever they don't get their way in the political sphere or in waging their perpetual culture wars against anything and anyone they don't like. For these Christians anything that doesn't amount Christian supremacy in all spheres is persecution. It's a cry that has long rang …

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 …
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.

Apparently, the Predator in Chief, our nation's first felonious president, did not get that memo. Nor did his followers, including a so-called pastor named Lorenzo Sewell, who claimed that the Right Reverend Bishop …
Epiphany
Matthew's gospel narrative tells of wise men from the East who went to Jerusalem seeking the the infant Jesus whom they had come to pay homage. In the Christian tradition, this event, the visit of the Magi to Bethlehem to pay homage to the Christ child and bestow gifts upon him, is seen as the …
I am the enemy within
When Donald Trump first started his campaign for president back in 2015, he immediately showed the world who he was by using incendiary rhetoric which included racist dog whistles and horrific xenophobic bigotry that scapegoated immigrants. At the time, I was working on my thesis, which later became my first book, and I wrote in …
Once more for the folks in the back
The 2024 election season is upon us and some Americans are already mailing in their ballots. This week, as so many weeks have been this year, was full of political news of the type that should be working on the hearts and minds of American voters, in particular those who inexplicably remain inclined to vote …
