An Alternative National Anthem

   Everybody knows the dice are loaded.
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed.
   Everybody knows the war is over.
Everybody knows the good guys lost.
   Everybody knows the fight was fixed.
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich.
   That's how it goes.
Everybody knows.

   Everybody knows that the boat is leaking.
Everybody knows that the captain lied.
   Everybody got this broken feeling
Like their father or their dog just died.
   Everybody talking to their pockets.
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
   And a long red rose.
Everybody knows.

   Everybody knows that you love me, baby.
Everybody knows you really do.
   Everybody knows that you've been faithful,
Give or take a time or two.
   Everybody knows you've been discreet
But there were so many people you just had to meet
   Without your clothes.
Everybody knows.

   Everybody knows that it's now or never.
Everybody knows that it's me or you.
   And everybody knows that you live forever
When you've done a line or two.
   Everybody knows the deal is rotten
Old Black Joe's still pickin' cotton
   For your ribbons and bows
And everybody knows.

   Everybody knows that the plague is coming.
Everybody knows that it's moving fast.
   Everybody knows that the naked man and woman —
Just a shining artifact of the past.
   Everybody knows the scene is dead
But there's gonna be a meter on your bed
   That will disclose
What everybody knows.

   And everybody knows that you're in trouble.
Everybody knows what you've been through
   From the bloody cross on top of Calvary
To the beach at Malibu.
   Everybody knows it's coming apart.
Take one last look at this Sacred Heart
   Before it blows.
And everybody knows.

Everybody knows. Everybody knows.
   That's how it goes. Everybody knows.

TOP SECRET— HushHush!

 

"When your enemy is destroying himself, never interfere." [1]

I'm certain that King Donald never read Napolean but Richard Nixon certainly did and Trump is doing a pretty good imitation.

Nixon's racist divide-and-conquer southern strategy, upon which he hung the euphemism "law and order," broke the Democratic base electing and re-electing him.

Trump has long been doing the same thing and some unwitting liberals are helping him.

In 1972, President Nixon identified Sen. Edmund Muskie, D-Maine, as his most dangerous re-election adversary. He dispatched his dirty tricks squad, which included convicted felon and Trump buddy Roger Stone. They did a helluva job. Nixon saw Sen. George McGovern, D-South Dakota, as his weakest rival. His bad guys did a great job of helping McGovern become the Democratic standard-bearer.

Nevada Senator Harry Reid, D-Searchlight, did the same thing in 2010. His strongest GOP opponent would have been telegenic blonde ex-TV anchor Sen. Sue Lowden, R-Gomorrah South. She never made it out of the primary and Reid smoked madcap Assemblymember Sharron Angle, R-Reno, in November.

Trump has done a good job scuttling former USVP Joseph Biden. No matter the facts, Biden has been bruised by the purported Ukrainian juice peddling by his kid.

Down one.

SECOND DOWN. Sen. Bernie Sanders has replaced Biden as the Democratic frontrunner and Trump has pulled out all the stops to beat him. There are even nameless PAC (political action committee) spots on the air trashing Bernie as unelectable.

THIRD DOWN. If Bernie crashes, the next in line will be ex-South Bend Indiana Mayor Peter Buttigieg. With all due respect to the young man's liberal positions, he's the opponent Trump wants.

FOURTH DOWN. No Democrat can win unless African-Americans come out to vote 9 to 1 for the Democrat. Mayor Pete is openly homosexual, a fact which alienates a major chunk of fundamentalist black and brown people. Add to that unholy alliance a portion of union members who might find it easier to vote for Trump against a gay guy. Four in 10 union members are registered Republicans anyway.

GAME OVER. My former union, Culinary Local 226, Nevada's largest, has officially endorsed no one in this week's Democratic caucus. However, the LV-based local did advise its 60,000 members not to vote for any candidate supporting Medicare for All, as it would negatively impact their union health plan. Local 226's plan is the envy of the nation. They have their own health care center and pharmacy, as should we all. The only better one is the province of congresscritters.

Sanders and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., advocate Medicare for All. (Don't worry about a government takeover of health care. That ship sailed in 2011 when government became responsible for over half of US health care costs.)

Las Vegas hotels are already allowing caucus sites in their properties as they did when Sen. Reid pushed them to do so in 2016 when he influenced 226 to support Mrs. Clinton. (Barbwire Feb. 12, 2020) Otherwise, Sen. Sanders had her beaten and could very well have been turbocharged to win the presidential nomination and defeated Trump.

The union has a legit gripe about how Obamacare damaged their health plans. It never got fixed after the GOP took over congress. [2]

I published the following on Dec. 27, 2015: "Campaigning in northwestern Nevada, Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, I-Vermont, spoke to a standing-room-only crowd at the Northern Nevada Labor Temple in Sparks.

"NevadaLabor.com Editor Andrew Barbano asked Sen. Sanders if he would support a fix to Obamacare which has put union health plans in jeopardy and is forcing union workers to pay a tax for which they receive nothing.

" ' Absolutely,' Sanders replied."
[2]

Bernie is not the union's enemy. A loss here hurts his momentum when the magic word "unstoppable" is already bouncing around the national media.

Las Vegas will probably splinter. Which means that Washoe County (Reno-Sparks and environs) the swing county in the swing state, will probably determine the caucus winner as the Donkeyites fight among themselves.

Bernie is also being called a folk hero (Barbwire 11-27-2019) and a cult hero in national media, the only D who can go against the cultist president.

This union rift is fixable or Trump, like Nixon, wins because his enemies have destroyed themselves.

LYON'S SHARE. Lyon County Democratic Chair Judy Zabolocky needs volunteers to work this Saturday's caucus in Fernley. Call her at (847) 736-4947 or e- mail <jzabo123@gmail.com

Based on press reports all week, it looks like every Democratic chair in the state could use some warm bodies. Turns out that lotsa people want to vote for president. Who knew? So if you're not otherwise committed for Feb. 22, contact Ms. Zabolocky. Doesn't matter where you live. The only qualification is that you must not be afraid to shamelessly caucus in public. And I suppose it helps if you are a registered Donkeykonger. Otherwise, check NVDems.com/

[2] 2-19-2020 — Obamacare was passed with an individual mandate that everyone carry insurance. Conservatives went to court calling it unconstitutional. Writing for the 5-4 majority, Chief Justice John Roberts found it constitutional under government's power to tax, terming the mandate a tax by another name. President Trump's 2017 trillion-dollar tax break mostly for the wealthy eliminated the mandate, raising cries that without it, Obamacare is again unconstitutional. Some people are never satisfied that they've done enough damage. In the 2-19-2020 candidate debate in Las Vegas, Sen. Sanders said that as president he would never sign a bill that reduced anyone's coverage. He did so as a direct response to Culinary Union pressure not to support Sanders or Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., who both favor "Medicare for All."

Eldorado-Caesars merger means labor union battles far beyond Reno & Las Vegas
Culinary Union leader D. Taylor: "Where are they going to cut?"

Building trade union campaigns continue

By Ed Komenda / Reno Gazette-Journal / 6-27-2019

[4-20-2019] — About 100 demonstrators from almost all the region's unions, local community service organizations and political activists joined Culinary Union members picketing Circus Circus in the late afternoon of April 18. A couple of CC suits came out to see what all the fuss was about, as if they didn't already know. In addition to the familiar union "contract now!" chants came calls for a strike against the Carano jocks. ¡Viva Huelga! ¡Sí se puede!

REAL NEWS DEPT. In January 2019, Culinary Union Local 226 defeated an attempt by Circus Circus-Reno to decertify (terminate) the union's representation of its workers. No word on whether management plans to appeal the result to the National Labor Relations Board which was recently put out of business for 35 days. Thank you, Czar Donaldov.

CONSUMER CONUNDRUMS: PINK SLIPS, PURGES AND PRUNING. I need to hear from recently purged Eldorado Hotel-Casino, Circus Circus-Reno and Silver Legacy employees. Barbwire spies report perhaps 100 workers got the ax just in time for the 2018 holidays. In the Tribune, at Barbwire.US and in the London Guardian, I have lamented the deepening desperation of renters here in Tesla Valhalla. I'm now getting complaints about medical and dental practices purportedly pruning their patient loads, cutting loose the less-lucrative. That's de facto malpractice but medical professionals are lawsuit-proof under Nevada law — unless you're rich enough to personally pay a few hundred grand in legal fees. That's why TV lawyers only advertise for arrest or accident cases these days. If you've been cast adrift by patient pruning, call me at (775) 882-TALK or e-mail me.
