On August 28, 2024, I posted about the near death experience of then former President Donald Trump when an assassin’s bullet struck his right ear just as he turned his head to likely avoid death at a political rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13th, 2024. That post is entitled “Did God Protect Trump from that Assassin’s Bullet?” Days later, I updated it September 4th with this post, “Update on Assassination Attempt on Donald Trump July 13 2024.” What I...

Today, Jews celebrate their holiday Purim. It commemorates victory over a crisis that occurred in the 5th century BCE that threatened to annihilate all Jews in the vast Persian Empire, which encompassed all of the present Middle East. Queen Esther became a heroine who saved her people—the Jews. The story even includes an elaborate beauty contest that Esther won in order to become the king’s wife. Jews usually celebrate Purim at their synagogues with a reading of the story of... Read more
U.S. President Donald Trump says he wants to be a peace negotiator and a peace president. Yet starting in December, he has been saying Canada, our friendly neighbor to the north, should become the 51st state of the U.S. When he first said it to Canada’s then President Justin Trudeau, the Prime Minister thought Mr. Trump meant it as a joke. But he soon realized he didn’t. And he has been saying it regularly and publicly ever since, as if... Read more
Political columnist Michelle Goldberg has flipped Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) full tilt by applying it to the MAGA crowd. In her New York Times op-ed today, this smart cookie, who I believe reports fairly and often astutely, has penned the piece “The Right’s Trump Derangement Syndrome.” I’m writing about this since I wrote a book entitled Bible Predicts Trump Fall. And because I blog negatively about Donald Trump sometimes as U.S. president, I can get accused in Comments as having... Read more
Riviera of the Middle East Recent Middle Eastern events are making my proposal for an alternative, two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict more plausible. It is that something happened today that likely renders U.S. Donald Trump’s delusional announcement last week another dead-on-arrival solution. The real estate mogul proposed that when the war in the Gaza Strip, between Israel and Hamas, comes to an end, that the U.S. take ownership of Gaza, remove all Palestinians from it, and make it the...

Monday, I blogged “Is Donald Trump a Russian Asset?” Why? Three former Soviet KGB agents—not associated with each other and living in three different countries outside of Russia, with one living in Washington, DC—have now come forward to allege that the Soviet Union and then Russia have been cultivating Donald Trump as a propaganda tool for them for over forty years. I wrote a book about Trump, and I was always thinking that him being so pro-Putin, pro-Russia and... Read more
Vice President J. D. Vance is a Catholic who is advocating a very unhealthy fealty to authoritarianism and applying it to President Donald Trump. We’ve been here before. I suspect it is due to the Catholic papacy. Barr’s Shabby Handling of The Mueller Report When Donald Trump served his first term as U.S. president, in 2017-2021, he made lawyer William Barr, a Catholic, his attorney general. At first, Attorney General Barr walked lock-step with President Trump on controversial matters that... Read more
For me, last Friday’s meeting of U.S. President Donald Trump and Vice President J. D. Vance with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the Oval Office of the White House was most disturbing, to say the least. Trump and Vance berated this Ukraine president whose nation has been attacked by Russia that is destroying it for three years. They repeatedly accused Zelenskyy of having a bad attitude in not expressing his thanks to the U.S. for its military support of Ukraine,... Read more
Hockey is the #1 sport in Canada. Former pro hockey player Wayne Gretzky is rightly recognized as the G.O.A.T: Greatest Of All Time. (Former PGA Tour star Dustin Johnson—who has won the U.S. Open and 24 PGA Tour tournaments, is married to Wayne Gretzky’s daughter.) Wayne Gretzky Is Ruining His Reputation But in my opinion, Wayne Gretzky is ruining his reputation because he has become a big fan of U.S. President Donald Trump. Gretzky, because he has not said anything... Read more
Trump’s Seventy Executive Orders the First Week President Donald Trump accomplished his “America First” agenda during his first week in office by signing, thus issuing, some seventy executive orders. And that’s just in one week. During Trump’s previous four years as president, he issued 210 executive orders. These current ones include forcing Columbia to accept returned immigrants. And he has threatened to slap 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico, to be imposed on April 1. He even said Canada should... Read more
