The American Riechstag Fire
Its right there in front of your face. Just stop and Think and Open Your Eyes. In 1933 Germany had the Reichstag Fire. In 2020 America has COVID-19. Adolf Hitler used the Reichstag Fire as the catalyst for dismantling the German Republic. In 2020 Donald J. TRump attempted to downplay the virus first. When he […]
Its Right In Front Of Your Eyes!!!
I really don’t understand Americans. The Dow has closed down for the last 5 days in a row. DJT loves to talk about how strong the stock market is under his leadership yet now he wants to switch the narrative. Yesterday he switched to talking about GDP. He lied as usual and said that third […]
It Won’t Be Pretty
Be at the ready. No matter how the election turns out next Tuesday be at the ready. No amount of civility will stop what is coming. Some of you will think that you can hunker down and not be affected by the coming madness. You are wrong. I’ve said from the beginning that we needed […]
By The Numbers
I want you to humor me. If you can I want you to actually do this. If you can’t I want you to imagine what it looks like. In rows of ten lay out a thousand pennies. Imagine that each one of those pennies represents a human life. After you get that picture in your […]
Save The Nation Christopher Wray, IT’S Your Duty
OK Christopher Wray by now you know the fate awaiting you. Whether he wins or loses he fully intends to fire you after the election. He won’t be content with just firing you, he will do everything in his power to trash your reputations. He’s counting on you following the rules of decorum and remaining […]
Renewable Energy, The Truth
The thing I hate most about politics is that the truth gets pushed aside for convenient rhetoric. Here’s the thing Trump wants to maintain archaic energy production methods because they feed the pockets of the existing energy sector. Here’s a fundamental truth fossil fuels are never going to be environmentally friendly. I live in Michigan […]
Nov. 3rd Is The Beginning of The Fight, Not The End
Nine days from now we will have an election. If we were living in a reasonable society the election would put an end to the madness. When Joe Biden wins the norms that were always a given will not apply in Trump land. Under the best of circumstances I doubt that Trump and his administration […]

Dr. Hotez is Dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine and Professor of Pediatrics and Molecular Virology & Microbiology at Baylor College […]
13 Days
So 13 days before the most important election in our history here we are. First we were told that we would likely only lose 75,000 American souls. Then the number became 125,000. We shot past that to 175,000 with no end in sight and today we sit at 221,000 souls, and 221,000 families with no […]
Lesson Learned
My father left this earthly plain 5 years, 4 months and 23 days ago. He was the salt of the earth. He was an honorable man. Now more than ever the lessons he taught me resonate with me. There was a point in my life where I tried to impress him with how much money […]
