Robert Mueller is a genuine War Hero, a Marine Corp Officer, a recipient of the Bronze Star, and a Purple Heart, a Princeton Graduate, a distinguished lawyer and public prosecutor, a United States Deputy Attorney General, and a Senate confirmed Director of the FBI under four US Presidents, two Republicans, Bush Sr. and Bush Jr., and two Democrats Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. And, considering the extraordinary abuse heaped on him during and after the conclusion of his investigation,

Today’s America has become the poster boy of intolerance, racial, religious and ideological division and hate, boldly stoked daily, publicly, by its elected President. His division-mongering hate is being eagerly picked up by the white supremacy believing crowd that turned a recent rally into a throwback to the glory days of Hitler, standing at the podium while the adoring crowds chanted hateful, spiteful slogans about the Jews, who they then allowed to be slaughtered mercilessly by their

The raging partisan war that is tearing America apart and is going to define this era in history, ebbs and flows with every event that adds fuel to both sides, as in the latest spurt of gasoline that was squirted on to the conflagration by the less than 10 minutes of retiring Special Counsel’s Robert Muller’s ‘Yoda’ speak. The taciturn and unusually reticent public commentator took the rare step of stepping out into the public arena with its inevitable glare, for approximately 10 minutes, to

The United States and China are currently locked in an escalating ‘trade war’... But, it’s more than just issues of trade and tariffs. Over the past decades as China gained in economic and military strength, and flaunted the rules of international commercial engagement, and as the developed countries struggled with loss of manufacturing jobs to emerging markets, especially to China, a geo-political power struggle started to take shape which has now grown into open rivalry and become a test of

Special Counsel, Robert Swan Mueller III, has put America to the test. His ‘Special Prosecutor Investigation Report’ records in excruciating detail, over 400 pages of crimes, lies, misdemeanors and obstructive intent, with detailed ‘Notes’ and ‘Annotations’, and outlines Donald J. Trump and his family, campaign team, advisers and surrogates, working with the Russian Government officials, agents, troll farms, and WikiLeaks, to hurt Hillary Clinton with false and misleading social media

We live in a time when individuals and groups take it upon themselves to ‘avenge’ the killings and/or injustices, perceived or real, perpetrated on ‘their kind’ - be it racial commonality or religious, or political, or national, or some other kind - but regardless, it is enough for them to pick up arms and kill someone on the ‘other’ side. The problem is that these self-appointed ‘avengers’ almost always pick as their target defenseless and innocent people who are just going about their daily

Recently, the World was shocked by the death of actor Luke Perry at the age of 52 years of a massive stroke. His premature death shocked and saddened the World as he was much loved as an actor, and by those who knew him, as a human being. His death, because of its unexpectedness, triggered the questioning of the possibilities of strokes in younger people, as till now fatal strokes or even just strokes, were considered ‘an old people’s disease’, and not a danger to younger people who from all

On February 5th, 2019, President Trump gave his delayed State of the Union Speech. The US President’s ‘State of the Union’ (SOTU) speech to the American people is a personalized report card on how the country is doing under the incumbent administration, and to the rest of the watching World, it’s a broad stroke assessment of political, social and economic currents that are defining America today, and its near and mid-term outlook. As the World’s largest economy, and the most armed and militarily

For his recent decision to allow enough funding go through to open the US Government for three weeks, Trump is being excoriated by some on the ‘Ultra-Conservative’ side of the partisan divide. While the ‘Liberal Left’ is celebrating the defeat of Trump, and the win of his protagonist Democrat Nancy Pelosi in this latest partisan battle, it’s the prominent commentators of the Right that are skewering him more profoundly, and thus wounding him more gravely. Trump, politically, is more sensitive to
