From Frederick Douglass: “Between the Christianity of this land and the Christianity of Christ, I recognize the widest possible difference.”

For years I’ve been pointing out the PROJECTION of individual 1 where if he accuses ME of something, that means HE’S doing it. Well, the so-called “Stop the Steal” movement where he was accusing the democrats of massive “fraud” is simply the “mother of all PROJECTIONS.” In truth, it was individual 1 committing the massive FRAUD amid his attempts to ACTUALLY steal the election. Individual 1’s call to Brad Raffensperger, the Secretary of State of Georgia, was worthy of a trip to court to defend himself, and, of course, there’s always more. There were several other phone calls along with a plethora of LIES ginning up his CULT to storm the Capitol on January 6th, 2021.

I, almost every day, listen to people discussing what happened on January 6th, 2021 (as individual 1 himself, remember this date forever) as they’re piecing together ALL the evidence which seems to point ever more clearly toward our TWICE IMPEACHED so-called two time popular vote LOSING (ex) president and his closest enablers as the “STEALERS in chief,” by referring to the “Stop the Steal” almost casually. “Stop the Steal” was part of the “plan” of Roger Stone prior to the 2016 election. However, we were FORCED to endure 4 years of individual 1’s incompetent “governing” prior to understanding what those three words really meant.

Now you have about 25% of Americans actually believing the NONSENSE which was spewed by individual 1 beginning well before the November election. People might be wondering, “How did we get to this point?” Well, I’m getting ready to read a book about Facebook (They’ve had to change their name in an attempt, I guess, to rid themselves of all the negative press – speaking of which, I’m regularly seeing adds on TV paid for by Facebook to brainwash “we the people” they are some kind of “caring” corporation – one, of course, who buys up their competitors! Yikes!!!) and my answer to that question is one word: (OK, technically two) “The INTERNET.” The internet has become a toxic mess of CONSPIRACIES which are so outlandish you have to wonder how they get published.

In fact, individual 1’s attempt to STEAL the 2020 election was pretty much the result of his PROJECTION using the INTERNET. Of course, his main platform was “Twitter” and his campaign was busy spreading MIS/DISINFORMATION (lying) on Facebook and Facebook was choosing to PROFIT off the LYING. So, our TWICE IMPEACHED so-called two time popular vote LOSING (ex) president managed to draw a HUGE crowd to Washington D.C. on January 6th, 2021 and, along with some strategic enablers, INCITED their MOB to attack our Capitol with the expressed purpose to OVERTURN the 2020 election somehow giving individual 1 “another four years.”

I keep thinking back to individual 1’s attacks on Liz Cheney which went well back before the INSURRECTION. Big Mistake! I’m no fan of Ms. Cheney’s politics, but I have to say it’s not a good idea to get on her BAD side. (Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned) I believe she will come out of all this as one of America’s great HEROES (Heroine?) because I have no doubt she’s dead set on connecting the “dots” all the way up to the TOP – and, that would mean our TWICE IMPEACHED so-called two time popular vote LOSING (ex) president along with Mark Meadows, John Eastman, individual 1 Jr., Mo Brooks, MTG, Jim Jordan, etc. had better be prepared for “full exposure” – along with many more. I think the Select Committee is determined, and Ms. Cheney is “deadly” serious.

As far as I’m concerned there’s TWO major things I want to see happen “sooner rather than later.” First, I look forward to individual 1 and his ENABLERS becoming TARGETS of Justice Department investigations. In fact, I believe it’s time for Merrick Garland to appoint a “Special Counsel” to investigate the INSURRECTION – from the TOP down. This time, I don’t believe individual 1 should have an option whether or not to appear for a deposition and STALLING won’t be an option. As we all KNOW, he can’t do anything without LYING – so, I’m guessing, there would be a lot of “I’m invoking my FIFTH amendment rights.” However, there’s no doubt the 1/6 Committee has enough “circumstantial evidence” to CONVICT him of (maybe) SEDITION.

The second major thing I’d like to see happen is for the Senate to carve out a spot on the FILIBUSTER allowing the VOTING RIGHTS legislation to PASS Congress so President Biden can sigh it into LAW. This would be the best way I can see to stop the “slow rolling” attempt at another coup d’etat by individual 1’s white nationalist followers who have been busy (are busy) enacting Voter Suppression Bills all across our great land. Are you listening Mr. Manchin and Ms. Sinema?

The challenge to save America as a functioning democratic republic is daunting. This “challenge” didn’t begin with individual 1, but he’s the ultimate LIAR who is the perfect “vessel” to get the politics of people like Don Black, David Duke, Paul Gosar, Jim Jordan, etc. into the so-called “mainstream.” To republicans, the “mainstream” means RIGGING (OK, more examples of their PROJECTION) the system to ensure MINORITY rule. By that, I mean rule by those pushing “white grievance.” They KNOW they can’t win – without changing their “ways” – unless they succeed in RIGGING the elections. (Which they’re busy attempting to do)

I’ve been saying for (at least) the past year “The Truth will come out – drip by drip.” Well, the “drips” are getting larger and I believe we’re going to see the “Tea Party” wing of the republican party being shown for what they are. As I’ve said before, it was the “Tea Party” “insurrection” of the republican party as a backlash to the election of Barack Obama as our first President “of color” which “spawned” individual 1’s entrance as their “savior.” I pointed out above his proclivity to LIE pathologically was what really endeared him to republicans, many of whom have now adopted this “deplorable” trait.

Well, enter Liz Cheney. For all the things “liberals” disagree with her, my bet, at this point in time, is that her HONESTY is something even most LIBERALS admire. Last night she – and other members of the Select January 6th Committee, began reading some of the email and text messages they’ve received, some of it from other members of Congress – emails/texts which made it clear the ASSAULT on the Capitol was well funded, well planned, and, thankfully, unsuccessful. And, as you listen to Ms. Cheney it becomes clear we’re finally hearing words suggesting there COULD be CRIMINAL referrals coming from the Select Committee – more than the “Contempt” charges sent to the Justice Department today for Mark Meadows.

And, it’s becoming more clear why Mr. Meadows decided not to testify. I believe he was more worried he’d have needed to invoke his Fifth Amendment Right against self incrimination than the “executive privilege” claims – preposterous as they are – which have been in the “news.” For heaven’s sake, Meadows was at the forefront of members of Congress going after Hillary Clinton for her use of a personal email server (just as Colin Powel and Condoleezza Rice had done before her) while he was using his personal phone along with encrypted messaging devices to HIDE his communications from the required government record keeping of all communications. Wouldn’t you call this HYPOCRASY? Surprise, surprise!

I’ve been part of the CHORUS of Americans demanding our TWICE IMPEACHED so-called two time popular vote LOSING (ex) president be facing charges for January 6th, 2021 (among other CRIMINAL activity). Most of the people I’ve listened to have suggested his CRIMINAL liability for the INSURRECTION rested with a charge of INCITEMENT – an extremely difficult charge to prove. Enter Ms. Cheney: Last night she SUGGESTED individual 1 may have violated the LAW against OBSTRUCTION of Congress (Penalty: 20 yrs.). She spelled it out and my first thought was individual 1 likely responded as he had when he discovered Robert Mueller had been appointed as “Special Counsel,” – “I’m F@#$ed.” I believe there’s a bunch of republicans feeling the same way! Stay Tuned…………….

Final Thought: For years I’ve pointed out, as a “Christian,” I have NEVER understood how “Christians” could make up the bulk of individual 1’s base – many looking at him as if he’s their “savior.” It boggles my mind – I know people with whom I’ve gotten to the point where I can’t even have a discussion with them because their comments are so radical and absurd – they are fully aligned with those who are seeking ways to turn America into a fascist (apartheid) state. I know someone who adopted and raised three African American children (now adults) who’s made comments which made me SHUDDER inside – comments I took to be overtly RACIST!

I’ve never felt comfortable that I was able to fully explain my thoughts regarding this dilemma – until about two nights ago. I’m presently reading “The Cruelty is the Point,” by Adam Serwer – a columnist for “The Atlantic.” The book is a group of essays focused on the “Past, Present, and Future of individual 1’s America and, in it, the first of a series of essays which has to do with the REAL Robert E. Lee – the focus of the “Unite the Right” protest in Charlottesville where, now infamously, individual 1 claimed there were “good people on both sides” (much to the “glee” of David Duke, sorry, couldn’t help it) – in the essay there was a quote from Frederick Douglass which captured my thoughts completely: “Between the Christianity of this land and the Christianity of Christ, I recognize the widest possible difference.” Enough said!

I have to add one more thing: I’ve suggested many times here about the results of republican STUPIDITY on themselves and maybe their blocking the “9/11 Type Commission for 1/6” will end up being the MOST egregious mistake they’ve made (for their own benefit) for years. Let me put it as simply as I can: Liz Cheney, Jamie Raskin, Adam Schiff, and NONE of the other members of the Select Committee would have been part of that “Commission.” It’s a time of year to be THANKFUL – personally, I’m thankful the republicans are often so STUPID! (Check the archives for other examples) I’m thankful for the “Select Committee on January 6th).

    Well said. I think person #1 will have a get out of jail free card regarding his plea to Brad Raffensperger if the courts rule that he actually believed the votes were mishandled. The Jan 6 select committee however looks like they are finding evidence that he knew the votes were legitimate and therefore the courts would lean to convicting him.

    The US congress needs to pass and the President needs to sign and the Supreme Court needs to find it constitutional a bill that requires all states to make voting equally accessible, convenient, and easy for everybody regardless of address, race, or party affiliation with final vote approved by a non-political body agreed to by both Democrats and Republicans.

      In a “perfect world” I would agree, but the reality is there’s not ONE republican who will vote for a bill which makes “voting equally accessible, convenient, and easy for everybody” because they’re focused on doing what amounts to the opposite. The worst part is the states where the legislatures have given themselves the “opportunity” to overrule their voters should the voters disagree with their desired outcome. This is what many are calling the “slow moving” coup d’etat where states like Georgia, Arizona, Texas, and others can send an “alternative slate” of “electors” after the next presidential election. They’re already either removing or intimidating non-partisan election officials to quit in a “silent” purge – setting up scenarios where democrats (ie the “hated” liberals) face the reality of “heads you lose tails I win” in local ans state elections. Republicans are busy complaining (without a shred of evidence) about democrats “stealing” the 2020 election while they’re well on their way to being able to STEAL future elections. Here’s the worst part of all this – if they get away with it, the ability to reverse their “voter suppression” laws will likely be too late. Thanks for checking in!

      Democrats can learn a lot from watching Liz Cheney – despite the FACT her political views are, well, yuck – I believe she’s got her “sights” set on individual 1 and finishing what Robert Mueller was unable to accomplish. Suggesting individual 1 is a CRIMINAL has caused me to, well, believe she’s going to come out of all of this (attack on our nation) as the real heroine. We can hope!

        Can’t disagree but if Dems can find a way to force a vote on a bill that requires all states to make voting equally accessible, convenient, and easy for everybody regardless of address, race, or party affiliation with final vote approved by a non-political body agreed to by both Democrats and Republicans, it will be interesting to see Republicans enjoy voting no.
