November 6th - Why it is important to our future.

This blog is going to be about a couple of things.  First, the lies that are being passed on as absolute facts by the far right; starting with the President of the United States.  Second, why it is imperative that you get out and vote on November 6th. 

The President and his supporters over the past couple of weeks have been passing on lie after lie through the media and at rallies to try and ramp up support on the right during the mid-term elections that are fast approaching. 

Trump started weeks ago attempting to campaign on the things his administration has accomplished over his time in the Presidency, but none of that seemed to take hold and amp up any of the base for the mid-term elections that are ever so important to the republicans.  So since that approach didn't work for Trump, he has resorted to what he does best; lying.  He has been lying about everything possible, and lies nearly every time he opens his mouth as we get closer to November 6th. 

Trump and others in his circle have said, repeatedly, the following things over the past 2 weeks:

  • Democrats will kick seniors off their health insurance. 
  • Democrats will end insurance protections for people with health problems.
  • Democrats will destroy Social Security.
  • Democrats will give illegal immigrants free cars.
  • Democrats will abolish America's borders.
  • Democrats are behind the latest migrant caravan from Latin America.
  • Congress is working on a 10% tax break for the middle class that should be passed by November (Interesting, since that isn't possible without Congress in session)
  • That caravan includes people from the Middle East and MS13.
  • The caravan is funded by George Soros and the Democrats.
  • The Democrats and the Media are to blame for the explosive packages.
  • The explosive packages are a false flag put forth by the Democrats prior to the Midterms.

That is just a portion of the lies being spewed right now by the President and his loyal followers.  The President, when he should have been sitting at the resolute desk addressing the nation and unifying Americans after the numerous attempted bombings was instead continuing his lies, blaming the media for inciting the violence, and continuing to denigrate Democrats with outright lies. 

One of the best of them all is to see all of the Republicans running ads and talking about how they are and always have been fighting for those with pre-existing conditions.  That's laughable, considering they were all trying to strike down Obamacare to include pre-existing conditions.  Do they think we forget these things?  They have stopped talking about healthcare and are now spewing about the caravan and how it is all funded by and supported by the Democrats who are all for open borders and want to let thousands of immigrants just walk right in and destroy our lives....REALLY?  There is no Democrat I have ever met who is for Open Borders.  That is an outright lie.  In fact, most Democrats are for very strong borders, and are also for the policies that allow immigrants to go through a legal process to try to get into this country.  No one is pro-illegal immigration, no matter what you hear the right say.  Their talking points are all lies.

This is going to continue until November 6th, so ensure that you don't fall for the lies and deception being presented by the far right and the President.  What we are seeing is an absolute disgrace, and the fact that so many people are OK with it all is astounding to me. 

You have states like Georgia where Kemp is running against Abrams, an African American Woman.  Recently they had to go to court because it turned out that Kemp, who is currently in charge of elections in Georgia, had held back tons of votes sent in because of "signature" issues, and the majority of those votes happened to be minority votes.  These suppression tactics are overtly occurring around the country now, and it doesn't seem to matter. 

If you think your vote doesn't count or matter, YOU ARE WRONG.  If you look back at 2016, where Hillary won the Popular Vote by a landslide but lost the electoral vote in key states, that was because people stayed at home and decided their votes didn't matter.  Your vote matters, and you need to get out on November 6th and Exercise your Right to vote.  This country needs you right now, so get engaged, look at your candidates, and make the best choice for you and your country.

Trump and the DOJ Trying to Silence Mueller...

Mueller is set to sit in front of Congress on Wednesday this week and answer questions regarding the Mueller Investigation.  The DOJ, and organization that is supposed to look out for the best interests of America but has recently decided to become Trump's personal Law Firm, has sent correspondence to Mueller about what he can and cannot answer. For instance, you have the question of the 10 documented cases of obstruction in volume 2 of the report.  Mueller made it clear that he was bound by DOJ policy and could not indict a sitting president.  One very important question the Congressional Leadership will likely ask is, "If Donald Trump wasn't the sitting President, would you have indicted him based on the amount of evidence in the report?"  That question in every respect is fair.  You are asking the head of an investigation if they would have indicted someone had an arbitrary roadblock not been in place.  I say arbitrary roadblock because the policy is...

Our current state of events....

Trump Tweet 10/29/18 - "There is great anger in our Country caused in part by inaccurate, and even fraudulent, reporting of the news.  The Fake News Media, the true Enemy of the People, must stop the open & obvious hostility & report the news accurately & fairly.  That will do much to put out the flame..." "...of Anger and Outrage and we will then be able to bring all sides together in Peace and Harmony.  Fake News Must End!" Trump Tweet 10/28/18 - "The Fake News is doing everything in their power to blame Republicans, Conservatives and me for the division and hatred that has been going on for so long in our Country.  Actually, it is their Fake & Dishonest reporting which is causing problems far greater than they understand!" So I wanted to start this blog with a message from the President.  As you can see, the President has an interesting perception of the Free Press. Since Just July of this year, the President has called the Press i...

Unity in spite of differences is the way to win...

I have watched the splintering of the Democratic Party over the past couple of years, and it is very concerning.  The party has broken into smaller pieces and the infighting has become far more prevalent since the November, 2018, Elections.  What we are seeing at this point are viewpoints of essentially 3 generations of leaders coming to a head, and an unwillingness for any of them to work together toward a common goal.  Look at the Republican Party right now.  Do you think Evangelicals truly love Trump?  Heck no they don't.  Trump's words and actions go against nearly everything those Evangelicals believe in, but they show their full support because he will push for the policy positions they believe in, like in the case of abortion.  They love that McConnell is loading the courts with Judges who may just try to overturn historic abortion law, and hold judicial power for nearly a generation moving forward; even if the right loses power.  Do yo...
