Stop the Nonsense! Nader Was/Is a Leader
Michael Sauers September 8, 2026 Ralph Nader had every right to enter presidential politics as an Independent and Green Party candidate. Anyone who says otherwise is a political bigot. Nader, who leaned D more so than R, was fed up with the duopoly that was/is the...
Smerconish, Impeachment, Pentagon, Gaza, Nuclear Power, AIPAC, Corporate Welfare and Public Education
Michael Sauers August 30, 2026 I think Smerconish practices unbalanced reporting. He brings on O'Brien, a PA data center developer and front man to talk up data centers but NO counter perspective. This is weak as water reporting. He is from PA and knows that there are...

Research! Israel–Palestine–Iran–U.S.
Michael Sauers June 18,2026 Curiosity helps as does inquisitiveness. Intellectual restlessness and the "need to know" are ingredients in the mix. However, education (great teachers, small class sizes, liberal curriculum, debate, community support, application...

Smoke and Mirrors From Shapiro
Michael Sauers June 5, 2026 Governor Shapiro has dropped any semblance of wanting local communities to have the power to say NO to data centers. The power to say NO would be a stone in the shoe, a tac on the seat, a stick in the spokes for Mr. Shapiro's full throttle...
Greenfire Coalition History

Travel-Not All It’s Boasted To Be
Michael Sauers May 24, 2026 Travel, according to many famous people, is a great elixir for life. Just ask St. Augustine, Mark Twain, John Steinbeck, JRR Tolkien, Anthony Bourdain and others. I disagree. Don't get me wrong. Travel makes corporations and their stock...
Prince Charles, PSEA, Moratorium, YIKES!
