American Hustle

This is not about wanting to lead or govern and this sure as hell is not about fighting voter fraud. If this was about voter fraud then how come every single time one of his lawyers stood in a court room with the ability to present their case and prove voter fraud, they admitted they had no proof? Why would they do that if they were only their at the whim of a madman?

Catharsis

Four years of feeling the walls crumbling around you and nothing could be done. You could see others like you, feeling the same way as you, and nothing could be done. Four years of watching science be attacked, the climate crisis be mocked, illegal activity be brushed aside and scoffed at. Four years of insults and lies. Four years of chaos.

Presidential Fraud

This is why we voted against him. This is why we tried to convince you to do the same. This was never about Democrat versus Republican. Not for me. You and I can discuss the difference in policy beliefs between the parties all day and I would be okay with an impasse.

A Cult of Personality

Cult of Personality is defined when the country’s regime uses mass media, propaganda, lies, patriotism and demonstrations to create a vision of their leader as heroic and to be worshipped. We see it all the time in nations that we would normally denounce.

The Monster at the End of This Country

I wish we lived in a country where a Donald Trump presidency would never be possible. Not because of anything sinister or illegal or because we changed the rules to block him but because the people of the United States understood that Donald Trump represents everything wrong with our country and chose to not vote for him.  I wish we…

Angry America

To be blunt, I am tired of hearing how Black Lives Matter and Antifa are terrorist organizations trying to destroy America. If you tell me that then I instantly know you have no clue what you are talking about. And no, for those already getting triggered by this, I am not saying anyone who criticizes Black Lives Matter is wrong.…

A Sick President

I am not celebrating the news of President Trump and many of his inner circle testing positive for Covid-19. I am angry. To put it another way, I’m pissed off. Pissed off at the months and months of blatant disregard for the virus. Reckless doublespeak over how bad it is. The “playing down” and mocking of science. Not wearing masks…

Be Prepared

I truly believe we are about to enter one of the darkest times in our country’s history. I truly believe many lives will be lost. I don’t know if there is a way to stop it from happening. I think Trump and his supporters have created such a fantasy world of potential conspiracies involving the election that they will riot…

The American Dream?

The American Dream has been promised to us long before our country was even created. All the way back in 1630, John Winthrop gave his famous City Upon a Hill sermon, promising a land where everyone could prosper. 146 years later our forefathers stated in the Declaration of Independence that all men were created equal with the right to life,…

The Whole World Is Watching

We have been stripped bare. The emperor wearing our new clothes. The curtain has been thrown open revealing the truth and we are not the great and powerful Oz. The shining city upon a hill has dimmed and buckled under its own weight. And the whole world is watching. The whole world is watching as the greatest nation on the…

America to Me

I can’t think of many things that are perfect. Or if something is perfect to one person it’s not to someone else. A famous work of art can inspire millions while others wonder what everyone sees in it. Even families aren’t perfect. You can love your siblings, your cousins, your parents and yet fight all the time. Your children can…
