I never turned away from the television yesterday, 5 years ago. I could not believe what was happening, even with my own eyes... I will never forget it and so should we NOT! That day, an elected president refused to give up his position when the election by the people, for the people, chose another President!
Many of you know that when I heard Donald Trump say he could grab women by their "pussy," I became what you might call a fanatic...
But it was not a MAGA FANATIC. Rather, it was my goal to determine why I had been told by a member of my family that, "If I was a Christian, I must vote Republican!"
Why on earth was I being told how to vote! For me, I've never seen a connection between religion and politics. Indeed, I was there listening when the Separation of Church and State was explore many years ago and became law... To my amazement, then, it was to learn that the entire group of evangelical christians were supporting Donald Trump's 2016 election! I could not comprehend! I had seen how he treated women. I knew that many believers followed God's Truth and Love. How could the basic beliefs of Christianity be so skewed to have an entire denomination choose someone with a background such as DJT? It remains an illogical mystery to me!
Perhaps it was because, like many working people, we barely had time to do our job, keep up with personal and medical needs, and provide for food and shelter. I had started working for West Virginia University when I was just 18, directly out of high school. I was hired by the Office of Personnel there and spent 5 years in that office, moving upward, thereafter, mostly by somebody else's initiation. I held staff and women concerns positions on campus--one elected; one appointed. I was known as someone who saw what needed to be addressed and worked to do it--even if we never succeeded (such as child care on campus)...
But, to me, my life was no different, I thought. Politics was something you tried to keep up-to-date on, but as long as the country was running, I could deal with my own issues, just like everybody else... The first political incident in which I took notice was Bush sending us into Iraq... My reaction at the time? Our taxes were paying for rebuilding a country where we should not have been... Only afterward did it come out, that the information supposedly used to justify what the United States did...was...wrong...I had walked all the way to the top of this great monument and felt pride in knowing that our country welcomed those who sought help from distant lands. After all, that is how the lands now called the United States had become a great country. Through people coming from across the world to find a home for FREEDOM... It was only later as history was more open that I learned that those who came, often used violence, theft and more to claim this land for their own--even from those who already had lived there for hundreds of years... How Can We Know the WHYS OF ALL THAT HAPPENED IN THE PAST?
HOW CAN WE KNOW THE WHYS OF ALL THAT IS HAPPENING NOW WHEN SUPPOSEDLY WE ARE A CIVILIZED COUNTRY?
Needless to say, from 2115 to now, I watched how the U.S. citizens, or those who seek help from the country to whom France had once given The Statue of Liberty to recognize our open heart and mind to those in need... have been treated by politicians... It grew steadily worse as of January, 2025!
Note: If you cannot hear the entire video, please check back tomorrow. I wanted to use this video on today's hearing, not realizing how long it would be--4 hrs-- (or go to YouTube to finish...) Thanks!
How can we know what has happened. When even the president of a country lies from one day to another and has turned away from all election promises to be an autocrat, a man of violence, thirst for power and revenge and riches... How can we know when the Supreme Court has allowed all of this to happen?! Does that mean the majority of U.S. Citizens can no longer feel secure in being citizens of a democratic land? Because, we all KNOW that you are able to find the truth, even if you were once fooled by the republican party... We KNOW it's been wrong with all that is occurring right now! Will only a few realize what has been done, and seek forgiveness? And, consider this, why was it only one woman who refused to be pardoned for the crimes committed on January 6th, was willing to speak to Congress to share her truth of how MAGA had misled many...
We knew that one of the reasons that Trump needed to win the election was to stop the many court cases underway. Jack Smith was relieved of his position as Special Counsel for two of those cases. As time went on, Smith attempted to get approval for a public presentation of his findings. It was denied. It was only based upon continued pressure and requests from the minority party that he was able to provide the presented information.
Let's face it.... It is WELL BEYOND what should have been prevented! It is also clearly obvious that both the Supreme Court and the activities of the lack of action by, in particular, the House of Representatives had been fraudulent and criminally neglected. Instead the Speaker refused to allow members of Congress to gather for weeks at a time... All the time, blaming the Democratic party for being the problem...Give me a Break! Anybody that at least follows news once a day clearly saw the devastation from day 1!
You know that day that he promised that prices for grocers would be reduce on day 1... and then ignored totally...
You know that soon thereafter, Trump initiated the tariffs across the world, which automatically increased costs...trying to claim that WE citizens would NOT be paying for those increased costs! His lies aren't even "good" lies!
You saw that Trump brought in an outsider and his staff with no authority and gave access to all records related to finance... Committed funds were stopped on, for instance, Infrastructure projects... Complete programs were deleted, such as USAID... People were being fired based upon DEI, an illegal action! In fact, every single thing that has been done has been illegally incited or generated by the autocratic actions of individuals never confirmed through normal processes... Security issues have been shielded even to those in "Need to Know" positions...
You know, folks, I went into Job Burnout when changes were made by new administrators even before they knew what I was responsible for... And they never bothered to learn... But my life was not ruined. I kept my eyes open and filed for retirement because I had the proper time in--even if I hadn't planned on retiring then. But I have to acknowledge. NOTHING THAT HAPPENED TO ME HAS BEEN EVEN COMPARABLY CRITICAL AS HAS BEEN DONE TO THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN FIRED WITHOUT CORRECT PROCEDURES... Rules, laws, procedures--the greatest asset of any organization, its people-- mean nothing to this administration... Those of you who have worked for most of or some part of your lives know that ignoring accountability will lead to failure! Each of us must work to ensure the United States is not destroyed completely... It's bad now--we all know it... And instead of trying to help deal with the U.S. problems, the entire administration has been looking outward where they can grab even more power... Even if they can lead the United States!
During the first administration, I watched CNN almost exclusively, but then people started claiming that I needed to watch more than CNN... So I changed to MSNOW (new name) plus watched PBS, David Muir... I already knew not to watch Fox from the first 4 years of lies, especially after Fox had to pay restitution for lying about election machine fraud! My point is not that I was watching as much, but that I found that by reviewing multiple, reputable TV stations, I could ensure that what I was listening to was as true as it could be, given that lies continued to be stated and then further lies were made to cover what had occurred. I found that January 6th was the most falsified by the republican party. In fact, I learned just today that an entire rewrite of that day has been made and posted on government sites... I didn't bother trying to find... You really don't have time, these days, to chase down rewriting of history by a group who is obviously trying to cover up things that they know are and were illegal acts against the country's citizens...
I found I enjoyed The Last Word because the commentator was old enough and had a professional history to support his opinions about what was going on and--most importantly--was not afraid to speak truth. MSNOW was separated from MSNBC recently. It appears that the major stations are giving in to this administration's pressures... How Can We Know that this corruptive overtake of not only our government but that it is getting worse, honing in on this hemisphere as if the United States has a right to invade wherever and whoever is profitable for the U.S. billionaires who care nothing about the Americas except how they can be exploited to allow the them to become even richer--and with more power...
The thing is, the United States can, in my opinion, no longer be considered a democracy... And, there is no longer any legal methodology by which the republican party can be stopped, except through actions by the people, for the people... But...
HOW CAN WE KNOW WHETHER THERE IS A WAY BACK FROM THE DESTRUCTION ALREADY FINISHED... Just like the destruction of the White House without authorization, without concern for historical preservation, without congressional authorization... when one man, controlled as a puppet by those better qualified to understand the complexities of government, just how can we move to reclaim the United States of America?
But you know what? This crap has become offensive to the whole world, including those allies that have come together for many years... Not only are Republicans turning against our allies, they are turning against the Constitutional requirements for a multi-layered government by which oversight is a mandate... And it's been achieved because republicans lie to our citizens... Like the lady above, who apologized for once believing MAGA lies and participating in the January 6th insurrection against our government, attempting to override the election of a new president, we have found that those who choose to support their own desires, their own greed, that our citizens have been faced with the worst year of our lives... Now even the comedians are pinpointed for destruction... So, I thought I would end this by pointing out that one top comedian, along with his sarcasm and satire, also includes TRUTH... And when millions of citizens know this and understand that the only reason it is funny is that because our president failed in getting him fired, then surely we must know that, somehow, Truth and Right will overpower the corruption that has occurred because one old lady who felt she could believe the republican candidate, and did the right thing in acknowledging that she was guilty on January 6 and refused Trump's pardon, is what we must all do. It will not be easy. Too many people have listened to republicans--they believed that if you are a christian, then you should vote republican... Don't ask me why because I don't know why I was told this! But I know one thing. God gave us a mind--a brain. He gave us free will. He has provided continued improvements in communication... Yet many ignored the Death of Christ to save our world...
How Can We Know That?
Look around... Where is the Truth of God? Where is the Love of God? When individual religious leaders have split off against what is happening, then we know that there are many who have opened their eyes and seen the destruction... And, I hope, remember that, among the lies that began in 2015 was that God had chosen Donald J. Trump...
New International Version
