We need a new religion.

I am going to on a little rant here and I hope that I don’t piss people off. What I really want to do is to get people to start thinking.

We are in the middle of a pandemic. People are dying. There are many ways that we can help save people’s lives. One way is to wear a mask. Another way is to social separate. We should also avoid large gathering were the virus could easily spread. These are three pretty simple things to do. Now there is a segment of our society that says that you can’t make me wear a mask. There is a segment of our society that says I don’t have to social distance. There is also a segment of our society that says you cannot stop me from congregating. One of those groups that are saying all three of those things is the Church.

 Now I will say not all Churches don’t care about the masses but the Catholic Church went all the way to the Supreme Court so they could still assemble for their so called freedom of religion. Now that is where I feel that religion fails the masses. The man that they supposable follow was the one who said to love they neighbor as much as they love themselves. As I stated we are in the middle of a pandemic. The Church should be leading the way not making matters worse. They should be telling everyone to wear a mask so you do not get your neighbors and family sick. If you love your neighbor you should be telling everyone they should be social distancing making sure no one gets sick. The Church should be saying because we love you as Jesus has instructed us we will not congregate until it can be done without risk of people getting sick. In a nut shell they should not be waiting for the government to tell them to do the right thing. They should be leading the way by doing the right thing.

Since the right thing is not being done maybe we should start over again with a new organization that really believes in what he said. I may not be a good Christian but I do often ask myself “What would Jesus do”.

  The hidden tax. Tariffs cause a hidden tax that never really goes away. I hope that Americans are tired of being told fairy tales about why everything costs more. Our elected officials point fingers. Corporations blame supply chains. Commentators blame inflation. The truth is much simpler and infuriating: tariffs are a tax on ordinary people, and the pain does not stop when the policy ends. It sticks. It lingers. It rarely delivers what we were promised. This is the mess we are in now because of the tariffs imposed by the current administration. Tariffs are sold as strength, as toughness – a way to punish governments and to bring back manufacturing jobs. That pitch works on conservatives who want control, moderates who want fairness, progressives who want domestic industry, and politicians trying to get elected. It is a message built to unite. The policy itself does the opposite. It drains the wallets of the very people that it claims to protect. Here is how it actually works. ...

  When I was young, I was told that “Sex, Drugs, and Rock n Roll” was going to ruin the country. What I am seeing today is that “Sex, Politicians, and Espionage” is actually what is ruining the country and our democracy. Just think about it. When sex, secrecy, and political power get mixed together, every intelligence service in the world pays attention. The Epstein files aren’t just about a criminal and the rich people that he surrounded himself with. They show how sexual exploitation creates the kind of vulnerabilities foreign governments like Russia dream of. The most uncomfortable part of that truth is that other countries, such as Great Britain, are taking that threat more seriously than we are. Jeffrey Epstein didn’t just commit crimes. He built a system. He targeted vulnerable girls, groomed them, controlled them, and used them to gain access to powerful men. That abuse wasn’t just immoral; it gave him power and leverage. Victims were scared, ashamed, and often silenced. P...

  Something I have written many times on social media is that when our Justice Department becomes a tool of the oppressor, we are losing our Democracy. Dictators have always used the Justice Department to oppress the people. Germany had its Gestapo and the SS, which were used to kill millions. Stalin had his NKVD, which would later become the KGB, that he used to kill millions and consolidate his power. China has its Chenguang, which is known for its violent methods. That is how things work in a country that is run by a dictator.   They use their personal Justice Departments to suppress and eliminate threats to their power. Is that now what is happening in this country? I swear, Trump wants to be just like the Communist and Fascist dictators. Trump seems to want to use our Justice Department more as his personal goon squad than a department that serves the people. He is starting with ICE. ICE is an agency that was formed after 9/11 and put under the Department of Homeland Se...
