Ralph Nader
Democratic Politicians: Eating Their Own While Letting Trump, the Worst Boastful Sexual Predator, Off the Hook
By Ralph Nader July 10, 2026 Democratic politicians, as they regularly do, have displayed an inverted double standard regarding the Graham Platner affair and serial sexual abuser Donald Trump. Usually, a political party covers up its own misbehavior even as it accuses its political opponents of similar misdeeds. Instead, the Democrats drive out their own…
Trump’s Tactic to Split the Democratic Party into Warring Factions
By Ralph Nader July 2, 2026 After progressives, including self-described Democratic Socialists, won numerous primary victories in New York and elsewhere, Trump launched a whopper of a lie, even by his crazed standards. He declared that the “communist” Democratic Socialists are “the biggest threat to our nation there is, maybe since our founding …. That…
Tyrant Trump’s Biggest Legacy – Bringing Out the Worst in America
By Ralph Nader June 26, 2026 Jimmy Carter’s campaign motto in 1976 was “Why Not the Best!” declaring everywhere he went: “I want to see us once again have a nation that’s as good and honest and decent and truthful and competent and compassionate and filled with love as are the American people.” Dictator Donald…
Fatalities from Israel’s Vast Gaza Genocide Deliberately Undercounted
By Ralph Nader June 19, 2026 The mainstream media has no problem guesstimating the deaths (500,000) from the Assad Dictatorship’s Civil War in Syria, nor the estimated deaths in the wars in Ukraine, Sudan, or Iran. Somehow, media editors do not let their investigative reporters assess the extent of Israel’s mass murder of civilians in…

Why is the Democratic Party Leadership Opposing the Vital, Direct and Collateral Benefits of an Impeachment Drive?
By Ralph Nader June 12, 2026 In my past two columns, I made the case for the Democratic Party to take the lead in pushing for Trump’s Impeachment. The majority of people favor firing Trump and the massive number of blatant, impeachable acts by the lawless, corrupt, violent, unstable, dangerous Tyrant Trump increases by the…
An Impeachment Drive Can Lead to Trump’s Resignation
By Ralph Nader June 5, 2026 Public support for the Impeachment of Donald J. Trump is growing by the day. A March 9, 2026 Task Force report by the New York City Bar – dominated by powerful corporate lawyers – was titled “The Crisis Deepens: Congress Must Act Now to Address Escalating Abuses of Executive…
Tyrant Trump’s Thunderous Corruption, Cruelty, and Lawbreaking
By Ralph Nader May 29, 2026 Give Dangerous Donald credit. Coming off the floor of his 2020 defeat, under several federal and state indictments, a convicted felon, accused by over sixty women of sexual abuse or worse, his endorsed candidates having lost in the 2022 elections, the Trump business brand wilting along with his polls,…
Nicholas Kristof’s Eyewitness Laments Skip the Obvious Conclusion
By Ralph Nader May 22, 2026 A skeptical friend reading the New York Times asked me why columnist Nicholas Kristof keeps writing columns about recurring poverty in less developed countries. My answer is simple. Because he keeps going to these remote areas populated by brutalized human beings living in dire impoverishment and sickness. At no…
