On February 3rd a brave man sits is state in the rotunda of the US Capital building. He was a police officer, one of the men in blue.  At the same time we have the impeachment trial coming up and I am wondering what it is going to be. Will it be politics as usual or will people really be looking for justice and law and order. Well I know that there is going to be plenty of politics. What about law and order? Is there going to be justice for Brian Sicknick? Trump has never mentioned his name or the sacrifice he made for his Country.

Now Brian was a vet that was deployed to Saudi Arabia. He also served in Kyrgyzstan in support for the war in Afghanistan. He was a man that wanted to serve this Country and his community. He died doing his duty, protecting our capital. Now I noticed on January 8 that forty-five percent of Republicans thought that the storming to the Capital was justified. Another fifty-two percent said that Biden was to blame for the violence at the Capital. Now Biden had not even taken office yet and he was to blame? Do people really think that this man had the power to rig an entire election? Do you really think that he had the power to influence the courts that stated that there was no evidence of voter fraud?  Now these are the same people that think that the whole world created the Covid-19 hoax. Maybe it was those Jewish lasers from space that fixed the election.

Trump made baseless allegations of widespread voter fraud and the storming of the Capital was the result. Now this is just my opinion but I think he wanted to have this happen. You shout a lie loud enough and long enough people will begin to think it is the truth. Now people knew that Trump was a liar when he was elected. They were ok with that as long as he hated the same things they hated, Mexicans, Blacks, Arabs and smart powerful women. Now we are in a mess because of that hate. We have this mess because our Republican Congressmen and Senators have not shown the courage of a Brian Sicknick and stand up for our Democracy and against the people that want to destroy it. Yes people want to destroy it. The silence from people like Graham, Scott and Rubio is deafening, people have died because you were silent to the lie and sometimes help spread it.  Now you say we must move on. We cannot move on as a nation unless the lies are taken head on and we have justice for Brian Sicknick.

Now as I said in the past we need a two party system for our democracy to work. Now growing up in a Republican household I always look for Republicans I can vote for. I use to think that Rubio could develop into a person with the integrity to vote for but the longer he stays in office the more he becomes a puppet for big money. I hoped he would be the leader that would bring a more centrist platform to the Republican Party. Please look at the Republican platform from 1956.  Now look at the Republican Platform from 2020, oh that’s right they didn’t have a platform. It was whatever Trump wanted. Sorry Marc but that is not a political party. That is just a group that wants to bring down our democracy. Also continuing to vote alongside the likes of Cruz and Hawley is not the real leadership that this country, let alone the Republican Party needs.

 By the way Trump still has not mentioned Brian’s name.

  In 1776 we declared our independence against a Monarch that was above the law. I wonder what John Adams would think about what the Supreme Court just ruled. I believe, what the Supreme Court just ruled is contrary to what the intention of the men that wrote and approved our Declaration of Independence.   This Fourth of July it would be a good idea if everyone would start out by reading the Declaration of Independence. The words that always have always stuck with me are “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal. That they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.” Do those words still hold true? The three branches of the Government get their just powers from the people. Not the rich people. Not the Republicans. Not the Democrats. It is...
This is my continued search on whether Trump has the Character to be President. A person I know stated “His character matters bc it is in the character I believe he has the leadership, knowledge, wisdom, experience, compassion, integrity that will lead us on the path towards a more safe, secure, healthy, prosperous, free world than the direction we are headed.” My last blog looked at his character as integrity from a legal standpoint before he even was elected President. From a legal standpoint there is no way I would have thought he had the integrity to be President. Now I will look at some of his Moral Integrity and Compassion that should be there from the man that sits in the White House.  I have to say something about Donald Trump, he sure is a believer in the institution of marriage. He likes marriage so much that he has said “I do” three times. What his problem with marriage is the actual vow that he has to take. You know that love, honor, and cherish until death do us part. ...
  It is a new game but it is still being played just like the old one. Biden has chosen not to run for a 2 nd term and it looks like Kamala Harris will get the Democratic nomination. This drastically changes what the election will look like. Instead of two old white guys facing one another we will have a woman that is 19 years younger than the Republican nominee Donald Trump. Donald Trump went from saying Biden was too old and senile even though he was only three years younger than Biden to the old guy that appears to be too old and senile. Since Biden’s debate performance he had been under a considerable amount of pressure to drop out of the race. I have admitted in a past post when Biden came on stage he looked frail and in the beginning of the debate Trump’s tactics really confused Biden. He did get better as the debate went on but it was too late for that. The first 5 minutes was all that anyone remembered. Trump used a debating technique that is called “Gish Gallop” where a...
