By Ralph Nader May 9, 2025 Except for a few professional Democrats, most prominently Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, the Party of the Donkey still can’t decide to use the best words and phrases to describe the cruel, vicious, law-violating fascist dictatorship that is increasingly “Wrecking America.” Trump and his Trumpsters have no inhibitions, crazily labeling…

By Ralph Nader May 2, 2025 Of all the epithets seething from the foul mouth of King Donald I (his preferred title) – “deranged,” “wacko,” “lunatic,” “crazy,” “crooked,” “loser,” “criminal,” “corrupt,” the most timely, functional one is his favorite: “YOU’RE FIRED.” Launched from his TV program, “The Apprentice,” while a failed businessman, Trump, using the…

By Ralph Nader April 25, 2025 From a recent peaceful student rally at Columbia University came a chant that summed up their protest – “FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND DEAD AND YOU’RE ARRESTING US INSTEAD.” This is the bloody omnipresence that the co-belligerent Trumpsters and their fearful University leaders, whom Trump has targeted for submission, are relegating…

By Ralph Nader April 18, 2025 Dear President Trump: We are Harvard Law students who have read the lengthy and comprehensive list of demands on our Harvard University by your staff. They are assuredly designed to turn this institution of higher education, older than the U.S.A., into a fiefdom under your iron rule. As modest…

By Ralph Nader March 28, 2025 The vast undercount of Israeli-caused deaths in Gaza is regularly reported as 50,000. The actual toll from violent military action and the indirect deaths (stemming from infectious disease, epidemics, untreated chronic illness, untreated serious wounds, and starvation) is well over 400,000 and growing by the day. No crowded enclave…

By Ralph Nader March 21, 2025 I’ve stopped counting the articles on the Democratic Party’s disarray over how and when they should confront Tyrant Trump’s criminal destruction of our country, its people’s livelihoods, security for their families, and their freedom to speak and advocate for their concerns. Seized with internal doubts, fear, and cowardliness, most…

By Ralph Nader March 14, 2025 There are reasons why influential or knowledgeable Americans are staying silent as the worsening fascist dictatorship of the Trumpsters and Musketeers gets more entrenched by the day. Most of these reasons are simple cover for cowardice. Start with the once-powerful Bush family dynasty. They despise Trump as he does…

By Ralph Nader March 7, 2025 Enough already with the Democrats’ confused disarray in responding to Tyrant Trump’s vicious, illegal destruction of critical federal programs for all Americans so as to favor the insatiable greed and power of the Super-rich and giant corporations. The plutocrats are demanding more tax escapes, corporate welfare, and green lights…
