The Defensive Coordinator of the Washington Commanders gave an interview calling the January 6th insurrection a “dust up”. He compared them as not as serious as the Black Lives Matter protests where buildings were burned and what he said lively hoods were destroyed. Yes, the violence at the Black Lives Matter protests was not a good thing and most everyone wished it would have not happened. Violence just gets more violence. To compare the two is like comparing the moon to the sun. The differences are as great as night and day. One is trying to promote change but I will admit the violence that happened in about 3 percent of the protests was not in my opinion promoting change. It is just making change harder. The “dust up”, as Jack Del Rio called it, was a group of people trying to overthrow a branch of our Government to put an unelected man in the White House. Yes, to compare the two is stupid. Justifying the January 6th attack is justifying the attempted overthrow of our Government. This was a statement from a man that works in a league that is probably over 75% black.  I can’t say that Jack Del Rio is a racist but many racists have said the same thing as him. I don’t see stupid statements like that is a very good way to inspire people to follow you.

The first hearing is now over and everyone has a three day weekend until the next one. I watched on the witness stand Caroline Edwards recount what happened that day. I hope everyone was appalled with what they heard. I watched the video that had never been aired before and I hope that everyone was as appalled as I was with what we saw. I hope everyone truly appreciates the sacrifice that a few made that day to save our Democratic Republic. You see I support the “Blues” all over this country that protect and serve. These officers in blue truly stood up when the country needed them. I will say this now that if you think that the January 6th attack on our Capital was just a little “dust up”, you really do not support people in “Blue” at all. All you support is the people in Blue beating up and sometimes killing Black people. There were off duty police from around the country that participated in the insurrection. That is right. Off duty police, fighting their fellow police officers that were just trying to do their jobs and protect the Capitol. I do support the all the people in blue that protect and serve our communities every day. I support the people in blue that protect and serve. I will not support anyone that thinks of them as the law of the streets and above the law. I will not support anyone in blue that has taken an oath to protect and defend the Constitution but then break their oath that they took. On January 6th we saw the very best of our people in blue. Maybe the next monument we put in the National Mall is to those brave people in Blue.

Law and order starts not with the police but it actually starts with the Constitution and the law. It is the Constitution and the law that is supposed to be guiding the police. The Police Officers job is a hard one that was made harder by people that many of them had claimed that they support the “Blue”. Some of the people that made it harder for them were people that do wear the blue and that is unforgivable. Jack Del Rio calling it just a “dust up” is a bald face lie. Representative Clyde calling it a bunch for tourist is a bald face lie. It has been stated that some Republican members of Congress asked Trump for pardons before he left office. They of course are saying that this is a lie. With all the lying that the Republicans have done about January 6th how can we possibly think that anything that comes out of their mouths now is the truth. They had a chance to help our nation by helping unite us in the wake of Trump and his insurrection.  Instead all they have done it lie.  It is the lying from Trump and his supporters that has weakened our nation and Republic. They would rather lie and destroy our democracy than work to preserve it.

Patriots do not try and destroy what our Founding Fathers fought so hard to create. Patriots do not use our flag as a weapon against the very people that have taken an oath to protect that flag and this countries’ Constitution. We need accountability not only from the people that stormed the Capitol but also for the people that planned it, sent them, and then lied about it afterward. Trump said that he was proud of all the love. What I saw was hate and violence. I saw hate against the ideals that have made America. I saw the violence that was trying to destroy America.

    I have followed Jack del Rio‘s career for many years, I never thought or believed that he was a racist but when you make racist comments this has to be brought into question. Do I think he should be fired no, sadly he does have freedom of speech and our constitution which is sorely written. As a democracy we eventually going to have to deal with our constitution. But that’s not on the table right now, so he has the right to make stupid statements and that’s fine. I see these types of statements as a speech. We need to do something eventually about that. And a fact we need to make hate speech illegal before we can stop it. We also must remember that he works for a private entity. The Washington Commanders owner has said many racist things as well.

  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...

  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...
