Colin Kaepernick – It’s So Quiet

By Desi Cortez Columnist

How can we sit quietly by and say nothing, basically not a damn thing about the exclusionary "tar baby" treatment of Colin Kaepernick by the NFL hierarchy?

Some issues transcend genres, and can’t be pigeon-toed into one lone category, like sports, music or politics. Colin Kaepernick is one of those rare oddities whose…

Trump: Can We Pray Devil Trump Back To Hell?

By Desi Cortez Columnist

You’re looking at a White man “gone insane” with white privilege and and audacious financial power. He’s welding power like a fat-cat CEO, not like President of all the people, big n’ little, as his predecessor did for 8 years.

Please, please, please, don’t “piss” down my back and then try to tell me it’s raining! Let’s start here: there’s no other conclusion which can be…

Donald Trump and Sarah Palin Spat in Black America’s Face – Again

By Desi Cortez Columnist

By bringing this racist, sexist, elitist machine gun-totin’ White trash with money piece-of-you-know what into the highest office in all the land, Trump was sending a signal to General Jefferson Boulevard Sessions troops - “don’t listen to the soundbites on mainstream media, look at what I do, my actions, my deeds.

Some news stories fly beneath the radar, getting lost in the eclectic ever-changing 24-hour news cycle . . . a story like Donald Trump symbolically “spitting…

Maxine Waters – The Most Uppity Black Woman in America

By Desi Cortez Columnist

Recall Maxine was all-over Obama, criticizing his compromising n’ accommodating moderate negro approach, and now today she’s all over The Don . . . pointing-out what we all know, he’s a hustler baby, a wangster/dankster/prankster . . . New York City Gangster who’s hustled his way to the top, but he’s got to be stopped or our children will grow up in an America which will be more akin to 1940 than the 21st century.

The President is a liar, his actions are contemptible, & I'm going to fight everyday until he's impeached. Nothing in the past two weeks has changed…

Trump Doesn’t Give a Damn about Dead Syrian Babies

By Desi Cortez Columnist

how odd, how so-very strange and unforeseeable will it be that the next nation this government employs nuclear weapons against will be an Arab or Asian nation, populated with non-White folks?

C’mon people, please, you’re gonna try to convince me ol’ King Trump was moved-to tears because he saw innocent Syrian babies gasping for life . .…

Black Men Bedding White Women – The White Man’s Long Nightmare

By Desi Cortez Columnist

Trump, who’s clearly speaking for not all but most of White America - wanted to hang the Central Park 5, despite the truth they didn’t rape that White female jogger.

Once upon a time, long ago I dated this White girl in high school. In this instance I played football with her brother, so her dad,…

Kaepernick’s Predictable Situation is as Simple as Black and White

By Desi Cortez Columnist

Trump’s embolden America yearns to tell Black folks “when, where and what” to say n’ do. We’ve been stabbed in the back, and now they have the audacity to tell us “how loud” to scream.

Over the last century or so America's national pastimes, “major” sports have come to be floor-to- ceiling mirrors which reflect a “rigged” US society; an oppressive…

Where o’ Where Have All the “Good n’ Decent” Conservative White Folks Gone?

By Desi Cortez Columnist

Congress has been informed by the G-Men there was no official 'bugging' of Trump's castle, but yes there is a formal investigation being conducted into Trump's team committing high-treason. Tell me where is the outcry from self-anointed 'real' White America?

In the name of “rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic . . .” I’m not going to spend precious little time condemning the US public…

Why Can’t We Deport White Men Back to the Caves of Europe?

By Desi Cortez Columnist

The game plan is to minimize Americans of color, while apparently Trump’s Americans are going to begin to have sex like little Viagra intoxicated white rabbits.

Iowa Congressman Steve King’s “living the life” - he’s one of those inflamed real Americans “saying what he means and meaning what he says.” He’s now…

Benedict Arnold, The Rosenbergs and Now Donald Trump – Traitors

By Desi Cortez Columnist

Let’s see the same rules n’ laws gleefully applied to a Black man now applied to a rich white man who's betrayed the “best interests” of the United States Of America. Donald Trump is proving himself to be little more than White Trash . . . with money; unintelligent, willingly uninformed, pompous, arrogant and awash in unjustifiable privilege.

Traitor. That’s what the real, genuine, authentic red, white n’ Blue-hearted Americans who make up Trump’s New 21st century Confederacy would brand President Obama had he…
