The War on Wild Horses by Marcia Mueller I don’t think the BLM or the ranching and other special interests will rest until the horses are gone or the herds are reduced to insignificant numbers. Take the case of Tom Davis. Mr. Davis is a livestock hauler and long-time advocate of horse slaughter. He is…

There has not been a significant piece of pro-animal legislation since the Animal Protection Act was adopted 50 years ago. Why? Because the industries that exploit, enslave, and murder animals own Congress. Members of Congress and Senators have been bribed with campaign donations and gifts.

Corporate Democrats agree with Republicans in opposition to Medicare for All. Corporate Democrats agree with Republicans on private money in politics. Corporate Democrats agree with Republicans on bribing of public…

In 2016, the corporate Democrats thought they were going to win the nomination with Hillary, but Bernie Sanders was posing a serious challenge to the establishment kingmakers. In response, they touted “Vote Blue, No Matter Who,” to appease disgruntled progressives and to give the appearance of even-handedness and a willingness to work with progressives. Enough…

Since the scurrilous activities of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) began to become common knowledge, and the reprehensible conduct of Hillary, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Donna Brazile, et al, demonstrated how corrupt the Democratic leadership was, and is, many outraged Bernie supporters and disenchanted Democrats have been clamoring that progressives should abandon the party and join…
