I just Goggled Jan 6th Political Prisoners. I was surprised that there was a ton of posting on the subject. I had not seen that before until the Florida Trump rally and people saying that the Political Prisoners should be released. So the insurrection was not an insurrection it was a political exercise put on by the Republican Party? First they were “Tourist” and now they are “Political Prisoners”. Right? and I am Santa Claus. Well, I guess I am grey enough to be old Saint Nick.

White Supremacy must just be a political issue. I never quite looked at it that way. I always looked at it as a moral issue that was a plague on this country. I have always thought that racism was what was going to destroy this country and I still do. Why I stopped voting Republican was because I would not stand by those White Supremacists. My mother always told me that I was only as good as the company that I keep and I try to remember the lessons of my mother as we all should. I just don’t think that the Republicans have been keeping very good company. Insurrectionists that attacked our capital are just that, insurrectionists. Just because they are Republicans does not make them “Political Prisoners”. I do not see the police running around checking papers to see who is a Republican and throwing them in jail. In fact, I think that most of law enforcement is Republican.

I have heard a Kenosha County Sheriff say that they should just lock up all the Black criminals in a warehouse and just leave them there. He didn’t talk about rights or courts he just wanted to be able to throw them is a warehouse, lock the door and leave them there. Of course we are talking about Black people here. Rights are different depending on your color I guess. By the way that Sheriff was reelected. I have never heard a Republican call the Black Life Matters protesters that got arrested “Political Prisoners”. Not a single one. They have been called thugs. They have been call un-American. They have been told to love America or leave it. They have been told to go back to Africa like they were immigrants that can here voluntarily. They have been called many names that I will not type in this blog because they are offensive. Not once have I heard that they were Political Prisoners by the Republican Party.

The Republican Party was the so called party of law and order and I used to buy that. Now maybe they should be called the party of disorder because that is what they have become. People that only believe in money and power do not really believe in law and order. To maintain what they want to call law and order they need to dominate and suppress the people, and in the end, the majority of us will be suppressed. If you want law and order you are going to do it by getting rid of the Republican Party and starting over again?  I believe that it cannot be fixed from within the party. The rich and powerful have too firm of a hold on the party. Why does the Republican not want to get rid of all the dark money in politics? I know that some of the dark money does go to Democrats but it is the Democratic proposal that wants to get rid of it. Mitch McConnell and company wants to make sure that money keeps coming in. Why? Who has the Real Power? Does some rich Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia have more say in our elections than you do? How about Putin? Does he ship money into our election process so he has some power over our politicians? These are just bribes that have made to be legal by unethical politicians and it must be cleaned up so we can really get our country back.

The Political Prisoners may just be us. We seemed to, at least I seem to, be trapped in a system that really does not listen to the people. For real freedom like other countries here we need healthcare. We need honesty from our government and that we are definitely not getting. Honestly is the best policy and the spinning of the news has to stop. We need a truthful media. We need to have Politian’s get out of the education of our children because they just want to hide history and tell lies. We need to have the word Freedom means something again. We need to be able to walk down the street and feel safe no matter what your color, sexual orientation or race.

The people that stormed the Capital are not political prisoners they are terrorist more like Osama Bin Laden. They are not the head of some political party that has been jailed. They are insurrectionists that have broken the law. They are getting far better than they deserve.

  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...
