Amanda Eller: ‘I chose life’ when lost in the Hawaiian forest

May 27, 2019 By Egberto Willies

Amanda Eller

I really thought there was no way that Amanda Eller was going to be found alive. She is an inspiration for much more than surviving alone in the forest fighting the elements

Climate Change protests spur walkout of 100s of 1000s of students worldwide: The media yawn

May 25, 2019 By Egberto Willies

Sorry you only heard this here first. But our media were understandably preoccupied by the President of the United States promoting a doctored video to try to embarrass our House Speaker by suggesting she was drunk. (Hint: she was not).Meanwhile, the children who inhabit the rest of the world are more concerned about the survival […]

We warned you about the Trump tax-cut-scam. It’s now come to pass. Still, believe?

March 2, 2019 By Egberto Willies

It isn’t like we did not warn Americans. We did. We always knew Donald Trump’s and the Republican’s tax cut was a scam. It was designed like most things Trump. It was and is a tax cut scam. Many people saw fewer dollars withdrawn from their paycheck given them a semblance of a tax cut. […]

Trump’s non-billionaire status may be unmasked but will the coercion of the rest?

March 2, 2019 By Egberto Willies

I am starting to see the necessary turn. For too long we have been programmed to believe there was something special about the industrialists, the now billionaires or semblance of billionaires. There was something special about them. Morality and ethics were not that which was special about them, however. After all, their billions are the […]

A sobering article for my friends up North who still wonder why I accept the South

March 2, 2019 By Egberto Willies

A lot of my friends from Latin America and the Caribbean used to ask me why I stayed in the South. Many African American friends would ask the same. My answer was always the same. What bubble are you living in, my friends? Have you forgotten about the Boston integration bus riots? Have you forgotten […]

If we stick to policy, foreign entities and domestic bad actors cannot split the Democratic Party

February 20, 2019 By Egberto Willies

If we stick to policy, foreign entities and domestic bad actors cannot split the Democratic Party

The Democratic Party cannot be tricked into fighting each other based on externalities. Let’s debate strictly on policy going forward.

Moralizing Pastor’s Second Baptist Church hired pastor who preyed on teens

February 13, 2019 By Egberto Willies

Churches, specifically the Southern Baptist Church, have spent decades condemning others and moralizing. Recently the head and pastor of the Second Baptist Church, Ed Young, had the gall to call Democrats godless even as many are in his pews.

Americans! Here’s the real Venezuela story. We’ve been screwed by this game before.

February 11, 2019 By Egberto Willies

Americans! Here's the real Venezuela story. We've been screwed by this game before.

Unfortunately we have never gotten the real story about Venezuela from our media in the United States. In the process it hurts all.

Second Baptist Church whose Pastor called Democrats godless has been embroiled in several sexual issues according to Houston Chronicle

February 10, 2019 By Egberto Willies

The article shows what would seem to be godless behavior by Ed Young not only for what seems like negligence but a callousness unbecoming of a pastor who forgot what pastoring means.
