Truths as I know them...

 

After careful research and a lot of thought – the following are some truths as I have come to know them … and, as always ... a few questions. I am hoping that this will be my last super serious blog of a political nature for a while. That being said... 

There seems to be no end to government spending these days.  (How soon until taxpayers are footing bills in the quadrillions or maybe “zillions”?) Yet … no one seems to be tracking the money that is being spent or know from where it is coming. The small print is getting smaller and smaller. Reports of fraud, graft and misuse are fighting their way to the surface.  Perhaps 87,000 new IRS agents will help gather the necessary funds to support this current trend toward big government. (Are there 87,000 qualified people who want to work for the IRS? Will they wear uniforms?)

The reputations of the DOJ and the FBI have seen better days. It is a serious and well-earned image problem.  (Time to clean house there as well?)

Currently at a 40 year high, inflation is ever growing. Respect for law and order is not. Dependence on enemies for fuel – both gas and oil - is the new trend after a time of gas and oil independence. Homelessness is ever increasing especially along the western coast and in larger cities. (Does the clock need to be turned back to better days?)

Although denied and/or ignored by some … as of January 2021, there is an ever-growing border crisis of historic magnitude. We are witness to child trafficking, deadly drug smuggling, and literally millions of illegal entries -- all seemingly sanctioned by those in power and not reported by leftist media. Sanctuary cities are now regretting their stance when the reality of what that means sets in. (Can they hear themselves? Do they know that their complaints define hypocritical?)

The United States of America is no longer viewed as the strongest county in the world and the hasty and chaotic departure of troops from Afghanistan has brought shame to our country. The ill-planned withdrawal that included desertion of Americans and those who supported them is unconscionable and an ugly stain on our history. (Where is the weaponry that we also left behind in the mad dash to evacuate? Will that, too be used against us and our allies?)

The high price of gasoline, food and well .. everything essential and nonessential, rising crime as the result of the defund the police travesty, and help wanted signs have replaced weather and the upcoming winter as most popular topics for casual conversation …  and…  it now looks like the government thinks it is okay not to honor debt. (What lessons does this teach? Does fair and equitable matter?)

The FBI and leftist media colluded to block the Hunter Biden story. (Do people know that our current President is a self-confessed plagiarist and that he doesn't seem to think it is a big deal to steal the work of others? How does this relate to his honesty? Can you believe anything he says? Is there a parent in the entire world who does not discuss business/work with their adult children? How scary is it that out President denies ever discussing business with his son?)

It has been confirmed that elite Dems, somehow seemingly beyond the reach of the law, at least for now, were behind the whole Russia collusion hoax. They seem to be guilty of doing everything that they accuse the opposition of doing -- once again. I am not the only person who sees this these days now that the truth has come to the surface. (Why aren’t people talking about it more?)

Stay-at-home, mask, and vaccine mandates have now been proven to be harmful to people. Some continue to deny this.  It is sad what fear can do to good hearted and intelligent people. Fear is a tool to manipulate and to control.

Moronic is becoming part of the new definition of Woke Movement. People are waking up to the damage, narrow mindedness, and injustice of Woke philosophy. (Is Cancel Culture on the way out?) Remember: Freedom above Everything and that means freedom for everyone - even if you disagree with them. The American people need to stand together in this.

One of, if not, the most unfortunate and uncomfortable jobs these days is that of the White House Press Secretary. The American people know when a question is not answered or when a lie(s) is/are being told.  Duh. (How stupid to "they" think we are?)

At times the world seems to have turned upside down and is beginning to spin.  It is not the first time this has happened.  We will see light at the end of the tunnel even if it seems very dark along the way. (Are you able to find your voice?)

In addition to all the aforementioned concerns, decisions need to be made about saving babies, protecting the rights of children, improving  education, as well as about protection of constitutional rights and ways to put America first once again. The list goes on and on.  The future of all Americans depends on decisions that we can help make.   

So -- these are some truths as I know them and a few questions that I think are important.  I am hoping that you might think about them as the Midterm Elections get closer and closer. They are now just a few weeks away. Do your research. Please keep your truths in mind as you head to the polls. Pray that you can believe what politicians say they will work to accomplish.  Exercise your right to vote. Let your voice be heard. Remember... elected officials are supposed to be working for you. You are their boss. (Are they listening to you? If not -- don't vote for them.)

Perhaps it is time for a change – a swing back to better times for the American people.  A swing back can be a step forward.  Fingers crossed. (Have we learned what voting from hatred can do to a country?)   Let us pull together. There are no second-class citizens.  As well as divisive, it is just plain wrong to label people as deplorable or semi-fascist in order to denigrate and to rally opposition. Such behavior is divisive and just plain nasty. It is the propagation of scapegoating, fear and hatred and that is never a good thing for anyone.  Never. Ever. No matter what your point of view.
