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.

  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...

  We are a fascist state when we have ICE agents not in uniforms and hiding their faces behind masks. That is right. We have a law enforcement agency that is running around more like the Gestapo of Nazi Germany than what we are supposed to have and what is valued in America. We are sending not only undocumented immigrants but also asylum seekers and foreigners on student visas to detention camps here and on foreign soil. They are just being snatched off the streets with no due process. This is not the America I grew up in. This is nowhere to be found in the religion I learned and practiced in my youth. This is like fascism. Every day, we seem to hear the term “Extreme Left Judges.” It doesn’t matter whether it is a judge appointed by a Republican president or a Democratic president. If that judge disagrees with any of Trump's executive orders, he or she is being branded as a “Radical Judge”. These so-called “Rogue Judges” are being attacked by much of the Republican Party besides...

  Every elected official swears an oath to defend the Constitution. Not a party. Not a President, nor any individual. Not a social media following. They swear an oath to the Constitution. They take these oaths of their own free will. No one pointed a gun at their head to seek the office that requires obedience not to a leader but to a document that is our Constitution. What I wonder all the time is how someone can take that oath and then so easily break it. The saddest thing is that it is just all too common. So common that many people don’t notice, and so common that many people don’t care. Here are some very common things that elected officials have done that are actually a violation of their oath. Trying to overturn an election. Pressuring state officials to change election results. Voting to throw out certified votes without evidence. Lying to the public about things they know are not true and using their office to help themselves instead of the country. You don’t need a law de...
