Burn Baby Burn…!

By Desi Cortez Columnist

We’ve no other options than to throw our fist up in the air and wave them around like we do care, like we do have our lives to defend, our children's futures to defend, and shout from the mountain top - Power to the people! All Power to the people!!!

Americans of color and “enlightened” White folks appear to be self ordained, driven, if not destined to drag this racially polarized decadent empire into the 21st…

Are Meanness and Cruelty a Characteristic of White Culture?

By Desi Cortez Columnist

Perhaps it arises from some form of righteous, well-earned paranoia?

Are meanness, unkindness and cruelty essential characteristics if not trademarks of White American culture? Is stone-age coldness and medieval evil-doing as All-American as Coke, hotdogs and…

Insulting White Racist Jabs

By Desi Cortez Columnist

I am disappointed in my people - our collective lack-of interest beyond the “Housewives of any hood USA” and the NBA season is a part of what’s wrong with us. Sure, they’re low information Trump-backing white folks fighting for the right to get a haircut and get their nails and roots done, of course, but as we know, they can afford to be that dumb, we can’t. When white folks have a cold, we Black folks have Coronavirus.

Not to speak in generalities . . . but White folks love to tell belittling jokes about Black folks, it’s like a national pastime. To insult…

What a Hot Mess White Men Have Gotten Us Into

By Desi Cortez Columnist

White men are the enablers and defenders of Trump: Rush, Hannity, Mitch and all the good ol’ boys who constantly offer-up Romper Room type rhyme, reason and rationale for this circus clown, and they do it for one simple reason - because he was returning them to their place of privilege and prominence - placing the morals, values and goals of both Wall Street and the KKK back on the American front-burner.

One day, when I was 14 years old, I moved from Los Angeles: swimming pools, movie stars and palm trees to Aurora Colorado - cows on…

God, Please Protect Me From Your Followers . . .!

By Desi Cortez Columnist

Send me $20.00, and I’ll send you, absolutely free, a touch from God!

Since I was knee-high to a grasshopper I’ve always been skeptical and suspicious of “religious” folks; their small, simple-minded arrogance, the extremely judgmental mentality most seem…

Donald Trump – The Most Hated Man in America, and He Doesn’t Even Give a Damn

By Desi Cortez Columnist

Are we witnessing, enduring a deliberate and strategic "cleansing" of those who don’t matter in the summation of the American aristocracy? Can it be the elites who break bread with and kiss the ass of Trump want to see the whittling-down of this nation’s “takers,” the US mainstream who don’t have half a grand in the bank? The pension check receiving elderly. Can it be they don’t give a damn if they’ve earned our hate, because they’ve hated us for eternity?

Donald Trump is, without question, the most hated man in America . . . and for good reason I might add! His deliberate downplaying of the…

Elect a Clown – You Get a Circus

By Desi Cortez Columnist

can it be this diabolical dingleberry want’s chaos and mayhem to rule the land? Under Trump’s little itty bitty fat thumb he can do whatever in the hell he wants - what Bill Barr is floating right now on capitol hill, a suspension of the Bill of Rights in essence, the imposing of martial law under the guise of combating the virus, call off the elections

Who’s to blame for Donald Trump being at-the-helm during these unparalleled times you and I are enduring at this very moment? ‘White America,” not America per-say…

White America Desperately Needs to Clean Up Their Culture

By Desi Cortez Columnist

Euro-Americans (white folks) don’t seek nor want any real form of racial diversity nor unity. “Inclusion” is a four-letter fighting word. Instead what they seek is the racial separation they once mandated. White America, Trump's America of 2020 will never accept a Black President again.

Deval Patrick, former Massachusetts Governor and overachieving Wall Street businessman was floating around the political airwaves asserting if he miraculously became the Democrat Party’s 2020 candidate…

Few Black and Brown Folks Will Shed a Tear for Rush Limbaugh

By Desi Cortez Columnist

The industry has been co-opted and monopolized by half-mad racist, sexist and elitist white men like Rush - who is the Grand Pooh-Bah of hate radio. You may not like him, you may despise him, nevertheless he is good, very good at stirring the melting pot called America, Thanks to Rush and his round-table of Rednecks who do his bidding the pot is boiling over.

Not too many Black and Brown folks across this divided nation, perhaps not even a midget’s handful will end-up shedding a single tear for a Cancer-stricken…

Trump has Prostituted Himself for Autocrats and Tyrants Worldwide

By Desi Cortez Columnist

To hell with both the “good book” and the good ol’ US Constitution - those are merely “high n’ all-so-mighty”

It seems the unfolding impeachment soap opera the nation is beholding implode everyday are little more than political “formalities,” mere “rules of convention” or traditional political…
