Joe Biden is catching unwarranted criticism for saying that “, A black who voted for Trump is not a black”. Thank you, Biden! I could not say it better myself. As a matter of fact , a black who criticizes that statement is not a black too. I think it is an excellent metaphor.
Let’s face it:
- A Jew that would vote for Hitler is not a Jew.
- A Latino who would vote for Trump is not a Latino.
- A Mexican-American who would vote for Trump is not a Mexican-American
- A Muslim who would vote for Trump is not a Mu
I’m wise to Trump. Megalomaniac Trump’s ultimate target is the UN. One of the first things he did when he came to office was to dismantle the Iran treaty. All the other signatories, the United Kingdom, Russia, France, and China—plus Germany) and the European Union did not support Trump’s action. The sanctions have driven Iran's economy into severe recession, with oil exports largely stopping, major foreign companies pulling out to avoid US penalties and the value of the local currency plummeti

An accountability advocacy group, the Citizens Quest for Truth Initiative has reiterate her surprise at what the group termed “unusual interest” of the National Assembly in the tenure of the Interim Management Committee (IMC) of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), as expressed in her last press release.
According to the group, “Citizens Quest, as an accountability advocacy group, would have ordinarily welcomed t
Now Trump has tried almost everything to stop immigrants from coming here. There was the Muslim ban. separating immigrant children in ICE detention from their parents, smearing Mexicans as rapists, insulting other Latinex as criminals and terrorists, describing their places of origin as “shithole countries”, and of course the wall, the wall, the famous wall. But, he has an even more diabolical scheme underway and the beauty is that no one is even aware of it. .It is so cleverly disguised t

True journalism has a responsibility to report the news. It abrogates its duty if it deliberately ignores certain news because it might anger a particular party. Too often journalists omit the transgressions of a particular party because they are unable to find transgressions by the other party. If one party commits horrible transgressions, these deserve to be exposed. It is not a bias to expose such . For example, if the Republican party commits transgressions against blacks, it is the duty of
It’s not Kool-Aid This Time
One of the most infamous cult leaders was Jim Jones. The faithful loyal followers of his cult would do anything he said. They were so loyal that he could shoot an individual on a widely trafficked New York City street and not "lose one follower". Such is the nature of a cult. However, this time the Trump Republican cult will not have them swallow Kool-Aid. Their fanatical leader, Trump, will have then swallow Lysol. Drink up.
By Richard Brody You can't have it both - ways, nor should you be allowed to! Isn't it amazing, that so many of the people, who want to restrict other people's freedoms, when it opposes their perspective/ point - of - view, such as, regarding Women's Rights, or opposing protests, etc, use this rhetoric, to justify, their insistence, on prematurely, opening up this nation, which has been closed, for public health reasons? When so many have been inflicted, and tens of thousands in this country,
THE RETURN OF THE GREY HEADS
The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head.
Crises rise and fall, coming into range fast--and disappearing just as fast. Music may change. Fashions may change. Waistlines and hair colors will change. But, the truth…that will never change. One other thing that will never change…a young person without guidance from an older person won’t make it very far in ANY society.

While many Americans will agree that our nation has a rich, deep and interesting history, few--outside of patriots, politicians and history buffs--understand how great our history has become in under 300 years. Enter Hatherleigh Press with the book: “The Handbook For Americans: The Essential Reference For Citizens Of The United States Of America (2018, 303 pages, Hatherleigh Press).”
One of the beauties of this book is that it is in a compact form. Easy to carry, which makes it great for the stu

Trump’s racism is not limited to America, but is a menace to the world.
Traditionally, Venezuela, like most Latin American countries , have been ruled by white elites, despite the variety of races in the country. The late President Hugo Chavez disrupted that. He was the first Venezuelan leader to embrace his Afro-indigenous heritage, His successor Maduro also did not come from white elites, with his indigenous roots. Throughout Latin America, the US has typically sided with the white ruling cl
Reaction has trailed Governor Wike’s move to set up task force on borders which is aimed at checkmating the Covid-19 pandemic from spreading in Rivers State.
A chieftain and former All Progressives Congress Spokesman, Chris Finebone in a short statement made available to journalists with the caption “Reaction to Setting up of Task Force on Borders by Gov. Nyesom Wike”, stated that, “It will be another misstep on the part of the governor to embark on such dangerously ignorant line of action. More
Blacks in the US, compared to whites, have worse education, higher unemployment, lower wages and life expectancy, inferior housing, healthcare, and so on. Besides, there has been an increase in racism led by the president of the United States of America, Donald Trump. What do these racists want? Using history as a guide, these racists probably want some or all of the following:
- Continuation of police brutality
- Discrimination in the workplace in hiring and promotions
- Continued voter suppression
At one point, I thought Trump was just an egomaniac. However, as I have come to observe more of his actions, it has become obvious that he is also a maniac and a megalomaniac. He is stark raving mad! There can be no other explanation. His withholding money from the World Health Organisation in the midst of such a grave COVID-19 pandemic has confirmed this diagnosis. Is the United Nations next?
I think those close to him were aware of his condition and tried their best to shield this from the p

One of my favorite war flicks is 1949’s “Battleground”. In brief, the film deals with the fictionalized adventures of a segment of the famed 101st Airborne Division during WWII. The 101st suffered great losses and hardships holding a city by the name of Bastogne until help arrived. The film’s climax comes as the surviving members of the unit were finally relieved, and got their orders to retire from the fighting.
As they were marching out, in the distance, they could see a new outfit of fresh tr

…but David encouraged himself in the Lord his God.
--I Samuel 30:6c
During my days as a probation officer--with a high-risk case load--I discovered one cold, cruel reality. I was responsible for my own safety. Never mind the training I had, or the backup I received from law enforcement or the kind words from my judge. I was responsible for me.
This realization takes fear--yes, fear--firmly out of the equation for daily living.
It is up to each Christian to discern truth from
