Bacon went so far out of his way to ignore REPEATED antisemitic remarks from within his political party that he actually went to a community rabbi to see if he would disagree with me that the President’s “disloyal” remarks were antisemitic. The rabbi didn’t.
The Nebraska Family Alliance (NFA) is a “pro-family” organization that has destroyed LGBT families across Nebraska. This presents a major problem for these Nebraskans as they age. In the year 2000 the Nebraska Family Alliance spearheaded a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage in Nebraska. In the same year, NFA lawyers fought a court battle against […]
Step 1: Pay the new president more per month than employees make in a year Can you imagine making $50,000 a month after taxes? Every month? Money that comes from taxpayers and college kids? We at the Seeing Red Editorial Board cannot imagine making net $50,000 a month from taxpayers and college students. We would […]
When even Tucker Carlson is complaining about a billionaire, you know we have reached peak capitalism. As Tucker Carlson (just typing that name makes me want to puke) rightfully pointed out, billionaire Paul Singer, before he bought Cabela’s and decimated the town of Sidney, gave Joe Ricketts’s “Ending Spending” (LOL) superPAC 3.7 million dollars between […]
Last week Planned Parenthood held a policy summit in Grand Island, as they have done for the past four years. The first I heard of it was when I read this Letter to the Editor in the Grand Island Independent filled with already disproven lies, and published by the paper without fact-checking or disclaimer.

It’s time to hit the streets
Okay, so it’s actually long past time to hit the streets, but now it is absolutely vital that every single person reading this take to the streets and do not stop until this fascist regime has been unseated. Do not wait for impeachment or the next election. Neither one of those things is going to […]
As the impeachment three-ring circus continues in Washington and there is hope we might finally evict the white supremacist misogynist in chief from the White House, it’s time to get really serious about how we are going to clean house in Nebraska to ensure that we also evict Tr*mp‘s (and Ricketts’s) complicit lapdogs and that […]
Nancy Pelosi came to Omaha for the Nebraska Democrat’s “Big Blue Weekend”. I attended the Saturday night dinner. It was elegant, powerful, and made me proud of Nebraska leadership, including Native leaders, who showed yet again that we always punch above our weight in candidates, policy, and ceremony. In honor of Pelosi’s work as the […]
Deciding to run Babs, like a lot of us, grew increasingly frustrated watching Jeff Fortenberry’s voting record in Washington. In particular, she mentioned his votes against transgender people, like herself, as well as his voting against equal pay for women, and his ‘present’ vote for the Violence Against Women Act, which she called “absurd.” But, […]
