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.

  I will tell you that I am no Christian, but I will tell you that I was raised in a Christian household. I was baptized, went to Sunday School, was Confirmed, and attended church into adulthood. Because of that upbringing, I still think about the morals I learned from that religious upbringing. To this day, I judge right and wrong by what I learned in that church. There has been a little bit of a dispute between The Pope of the Catholic Church, the Trump administration, the deportations, and Catholic convert Vance and his use of the concept from the medieval Catholic theology known in Latin as “Ordo Amoris”. I guess Vance has said the concept delineates a hierarchy of care – to family first, followed by neighbor, community, fellow citizen, and lastly those elsewhere. Being raised a Protestant I had never heard of it but then the Lutheran Church has no medieval saint.   I searched on the web and asked if “Ordo Amoris” was in the Bible and the short answer would be “no”. It i...

  MAGA called Biden a dictator, a Tyrant, a Nazi, a Communist, and the head of the Biden Crime Family. Biden was, of course, none of those things. Biden was a good Christian man who believed in God and the American system. When Biden said “God Bless America”, he meant it, whereas many politicians say, “God Bless America” only because they want your vote. Many people will say that Biden was weak. I don’t say that he was weak but I understand why some would say that. He believed in the system and he believed in the American people. It was our voice that was supposed to be important. It was not just his responsibility for our Democratic Republic to survive and flourish it was our responsibility too. Have we, as a country, lost our faith in our Democratic Republic? Have we lost the vision that was our Forefathers? Do today's Americans even understand what their vision was? What is a government by the People, of the People for the People?   Is that even close to what we have toda...

  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...
