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…

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
