Attempts to Humanize and Legitimize King Trump are a Waste of Time

By Desi Cortez Columnist

The "Right" was due a "you lie" but the "glee club" alumni masquerading as civil servants didn’t have the guts, brains or balls to give these SOB’s a piece of their own medicine. It’s like momma's boys and little ladies went out in the back yard to get their ass kicked by the guys on the football team and in the rifle club.

As Emperor Trump addresses the world . . . It was so quiet in the great room . . . you could hear a rat piss…

Ask not what White America can do for us, but what we can do for ourselves

By Desi Cortez Columnist

the free press is the target of Lord Trump and his minions everyday. When President Bannon silences the press, Black folks need to start worrying about our collective well being. Black America needs an all encompassing cohesive effort to address the ills and woes Black folks endure.

Trump wants to work with Black leaders to also make Black America great. Please, Ask not what White America can do for us, but what we…

Yesterday Trump’s Stormtroopers Came for the Muslims, and we “Enlightened” Americans said “Not Today M****r F*****s”

By Desi Cortez Columnist

They'll be comin' for everybody who isn't a Confederate-minded follower of Trump. And don't miss this; The 'Left' owns the street, while the 'Right' owns the police, Army and all the tanks, choppers, dogs and internment camps.

Not today!” No!, Not without a fight will we go quietly into-the-night. And now today they come for the Latinos. Tomorrow it will be Asians, and…

Why Do White People Hate Black People?

By Desi Cortez Columnist

Why do most White people seem to have some bitter grudge against Black folks? What list of grievances do they have? Why do they have such ill-will and a deep-seeded desire to “punish” Black people - even toddlers and the elderly?

I’m sorry, excuse me, but when determining precisely “how” White folks here in America “feel” about Black people, I’d have to contend that White people surely…

No President Obama, We’re Not Going to be OK

By Desi Cortez Columnist

King Trump is the trumped-up leader of a White supremacist revolt masquerading as Make America White movement. They’ve an admitted-to an antiquated America First agenda; which translated means - White Americans First Last and Only, Screw everyone else.

President Obama bid farewell to all the little people by offering this highly optimistic if not a somewhat “and they all lived happily ever” fairy tale…

If It Looks, Walks And Talks Like A Klansman

By Desi Cortez Columnist

It’s as simple as it seems - Trump is what he appears to undeniably be, a by-product of White hatred, anger, resentment, envy and false illusions of an superior grandiose All-American White culture.

If it looks, walks n’ talks like a half-mad vengeful Klansman . . . forgive me, but I’m going to believe my lying eyes n’ ears…

Apartheid, American Style

By Desi Cortez Columnist

if we can’t transform the Democratic Party then we ought abandon or burn the plantation down and start our own party, The People’s Party. All Power to the People!!!

I ask my people, Afro-Americans, and my Native and Mexican brothers and sisters who’ve too been in this 400 year-long struggle against genocidal colonialism . .…

White Nationalism, Global Wasp Supremacy and Cold-Cash “Trump” Good Ol’ Fashioned American Patriotism

By Desi Cortez Columnist

most White folks believe the Founding Fathers never had any intentions of creating this land for “you people” and today in 2017 they still concur with that primitive, colonial mentality.

2017 is going to be the year of “stand-up, or be rolled-over” for black Americans, and for that matter most Americans of color. We’re about to…

Rise n’ Shine Negroes, It’s An Older, Whiter, Bleaker Day in America

By Desi Cortez Columnist

All the “live Facebooking,” “tweets” and “retweets” damning and condemning their barbaric actions as deplorable is not going to stop them. They want their country back, and all the horrendous acts and despicable deeds they employed to construct this empire . . . they’re willing to use them again to get it back, and keep it.

Sinclair Lewis said something along the lines of “When fascism comes to America, it’ll be wrapped in “Ol glory” and dragging Jesus’ cross . . .”…

This land is your land – this land is my land . . . . BS

By Desi Cortez Columnist

The whimsical idea that the good ol’ USofA is a “shining city on the hill,” welcoming all exiles from around the globe , that we are good, decent, progressive-minded people is wrong and inaccurate; America is now today none of those things.

As an Afro-American, raised mostly in a large diverse city, Los Angeles, but moved to suburban Denver in the late 1970's at age 14, thus immersed…
