On May 19, 2026, a gathering in front of the Bradford County courthouse in Towanda, PA met to rededicate Bradford County to God. On July 12, Commissioner McLinko – bless his heart – is holding a good old big tent religious revival on his property. All of this follows Donald Trump’s May 17 rededication of the U.S. to the same deity. As innocuous as the gatherings seem to be, we all know that once our true-believing resident Christians and Evangelicals crack the door open, they’ll want total control. They want to replace the U.S. Constitution with the Christian Bible. And this means things have to change. - No shrimp, crab, lobster or pork. (Leviticus 11:7-12) - No tattoos. (Leviticus 19:28) - Rebellious children are to be stoned. (Deuteronomy 21:21) - Adultery is out too even though our president and some rededicators seem to major in the subject. The penalty is death. (Leviticus 20:10-16) - Some good news for rapists though. If a man rapes a virgin, all he has to do is pay her father a...

In 1933, as a pretext for declaring an emergency to suspend civil liberties, Nazis set fire to the Reichstag building and blamed it on Communist agitators. Soon afterward, Nazi rule was established in Germany with Hitler as its dictator. Ninety-plus years later, Trump has used multiple pretexts to justify the suspension of civil liberties: he completely fabricated crime emergencies in D.C. and Minneapolis, he falsely equated peaceful demonstrators as insurrectionists, and he continually claims voter fraud where none exists. None of these pretexts have worked. But the pretext of Iran as an imminent threat to the U.S. might. With no justifications from Netanyahu or Trump, both began bombing Iran. Iran is a violent repressive theocracy attempting to become a nuclear power. In June 2025, Trump bombed Iran's nuclear facilities and claimed that they were "completely and totally obliterated." His February 28, 2026 bombing was based on a “feeling” that Iran was going to attack u...

Congress unanimously passed (minus 1 vote) the Epstein Files Transparency Act that mandates the DOJ to release records related to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell while protecting victim identities. Sen. John Husted was the only “no” vote for the release of the Epstein files because he accepted a $116,892 campaign donation from Les Wexner – who is in the files. Trump signed the bill into law although the passage was veto proof. He had no choice. The DOJ has not only not complied with the law, they have redacted names of rapists, sex traffickers, and pedophiles while releasing names, contact information, and pictures of victims. The victim’s names were released to intimidate them and to prevent other victims from testifying. The DOJ has also withheld millions of documents. They have neither indicted a single person nor interviewed any of the victims. Attorney General Pam Bondi is protecting rapists, sex traffickers, and pedophiles because the release of the files in accordance with...

Trump’s method of operation when events don’t go his way is to attack, counter-attack, never apologize, and never admit defeat. Trump was raised by his racist, slum-lord father Fred, who kept Trump from bankruptcy multiple times. Trump’s later tactics were learned from Roy Cohn, a ruthless New York lawyer who was disbarred for “unethical and unprofessional conduct, including misappropriation of clients' funds, lying on a bar application, and falsifying a change to a will.” After his death in 1986, most of Cohn’s assets were seized by the IRS for tax fraud. Trump is a racist as shown by his recent social media post of the Obamas. He is a Nazi as shown by his collaborations with self-proclaimed Nazi Elon Musk. Trump has the support of the rich because of his tax cuts. He essentially bought their support because they are spineless sycophants who surrender morals and ethics over profits. If you support Trump, you would have supported Hitler and you would have supported slavery and the ...

Trump's creation of an undertrained and over funded army of rabid masked federal agents has nothing to do with deportations. I.C.E. was changed into his personal police force to instill fear in any area he decides that needs to be punished for not supporting him enough. It has little to do with immigration and customs enforcement. In Minneapolis, two peaceful protestors were murdered by Trump's I.C.E. gestapo. Regardless of multiple angles of videos showing the executions, the Trump administration claimed that the two protestors were domestic terrorists, in direct opposition to the video evidence and analysis by multiple independent agencies. Three Trump agents must be charged with the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. As a reminder to Fox “News”, Noem, Vance and others spreading lies – remember Julius Streicher. He was a Nazi propagandist who was aware of murders by the Nazis but continued the vile rhetoric. He was the first Nazi hanged for his actions. We know what we sa...

Trump recently mentioned that many people call him a dictator then added “sometimes you need a dictator.” Trump's history shows that he incubates insane ideas and gradually builds on them unless stopped. His obsession with Greenland – one of many – started during his first term. Trump wants to remain in office to avoid prison, and to do this he must become a dictator, another insane idea. His methods parallel those of Hitler: attack journalists and media, create a personal police force (I.C.E.), use the “Justice” department to attack perceived political opponents, deny election results unless favorable, attack peaceful protesters, and use violence to further his agenda to impose martial law to cancel elections. Cruelty in their actions is the point. Trump and his fellow traitors – including his entire administration and many members of Congress – should drop the pretense and don brown shirts with swastikas.
