‘Hilaria’ Baldwin’s white privilege: The rest of us can’t pick our accent or skin color.

January 4, 2021Kurt Bardella, Opinion columnistComments Off on ‘Hilaria’ Baldwin’s white privilege: The rest of us can’t pick our accent or skin color.

Entitled is the right word for Boston native ‘Hilaria’ Baldwin, who deceptively pretends to be Spanish. She has choices. People of color like me do not.

Get ready to change the channel and stop giving Donald Trump the attention he craves

December 7, 2020Kurt Bardella, Opinion columnistComments Off on Get ready to change the channel and stop giving Donald Trump the attention he craves

I am a part of this problem. But my point is we have an opportunity to do better. To learn from the past. To ignore Trump and get back to reality.

June 11, 2019Kurt Bardella, Opinion columnistComments Off on Impeachment would send Trump and his ego into a tailspin. Democrats should just do it.

Trump sees Democrats’ hesitancy as weakness and feels empowered by it. They should call his bluff. Impeachment is a fitting punishment and legacy.

News

I hope Joe Biden runs for president. After Donald Trump, we need a compassionate leader.

March 21, 2019Kurt Bardella, Opinion columnistComments Off on I hope Joe Biden runs for president. After Donald Trump, we need a compassionate leader.

Biden is the greatest threat and contrast to Trump. He doesn’t have to pretend to show empathy. He doesn’t need a note card prompting him to care.

January 7, 2019Kurt Bardella, Opinion columnistComments Off on News networks should not air Trump Wall speech without fact-checking first

On the same day Donald Trump asked broadcast networks for air time, he attacked the news media as ‘the enemy of the people.’

News

I became a Democrat a year ago and found my own voice. It changed everything.

December 16, 2018Kurt Bardella, Opinion columnistComments Off on I became a Democrat a year ago and found my own voice. It changed everything.
