Why Some Lie?

 THE MAN WHO WENT TO CHICAGO by Richard Wright

"Lying was bad, but revealing my own sense of insecurity would have been worse. It would have been shameful, and I did not like to feel ashamed." 

Quote made me think of djt. Read that narcissists are insecure. Um, George Santos?

disgusting elected reps

Ron Johnson following trump's party line, said Biden is the cancer and should be removed. 

Seems not so long ago peeps said you have to respect the office, when others dissed DJT. Do not like Biden, fine, but likening him to cancer is a low blow.

It is the gop who are like fast spreading, contagious disease. They get worse by the day.

"Our Country is SICK inside, very much like a person dying of Cancer. The Crooked FBI, the so-called Department of 'Justice,' and 'Intelligence,' all parts of the Democrat Party and System, is the Cancer. These Weaponized Thugs and Tyrants must be dealt with, or our once great and beautiful Country will die!!!" ~ DJT

Moron?

 "On some great and glorious day," wrote H. L. Mencken in 1920, "the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron." 

"In the first eight years of the new century this first prediction is still fodder for debate, but the second is not." ~ unknown

Actually the plain folks got their heart's desire in 2016. Plain folks aka: silent majority, or White Supremacists. Remains to be seen if they will start a new civil war as they have threatened to do.

Trump promised “problems ... the likes of which perhaps we’ve never seen” if he is indicted. He has called on his thugs saying it is time to "deal with" the "cancer" "weaponized, thugs, tyrants" "FBI, DOJ, Democrats." 

In 2015 I said he was a believer in conspiracy theories. His QAnon support and spreading of their lies proved I was correct. Maybe he does not believe them? Just uses his sales skills to sell them to citizens?

He tested their willingness to act on his commands twice  ~ Michigan State House, and plot to kidnap Whitmer to execute her. Is not anyone paying attention? GOP House want to expunge the two impeachments. They are forming a committee to investigate the people who investigated him and 4 of them.It seems they want to get DJT back in the White House and then..

...we really will not have a country anymore.

Happy BIrthday

 I truly do not like to say happy birthday to deceased people. "Happy birthday in heaven, Dad (mom, dog, grandma.") Google will often say it is someone's 150th birthday. I could go for 150 days ago so & do was born, or the anniversary of someone's birth. Do people age once their bodies die? I do not know. 

Yet I listened to Stevie Wonder's Happy Birthday song many times yesterday. You Tube sidebar had "greatest speeches" ~ "nothing to fear but fear itself,." "ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for our country," "yes, we can."

I liked Al Gore's concession speech. Some peeps liked Bush's 911 speech, I thought he looked silly standing on pile of rubble with arm around fire fighters neck, big smiles on his face. Was he happy jet planes flew into tall buildings? FDR, Truman, Nixon, did not impress me much. 

I shared the speech video on my Facebook page. Along with I Have A Dream song by Common from Freedom Writers Diary. Upbeat song. Yet missing Long Beach. I drove past that school many times. Later walked past it on the way to a park. I would walk to MLK Jr celebration at another park in LBC.  This year, after trip to get blood test, shopping, lunch with daughter, home alone the rest of the day.

Did not check to see where Allentown Martin Luther King, Jr. Day celebrations were being held. I would not be able to get there on my own power anyway. (Maybe someday I will try Uber or find taxi cab #.) Too cold and dreary/rainy out. I guess it was raining in sunny So Cal Long Beach. I did not check out stories about those celebrations.

The bands! A lot of love in the air. Too few white people there however. 

I also posted comments on my shared speech video, concession speeches from various presidents. DJT's inspiration, Bob Dole? Maybe after I post all my drafts, I will share the concession speeches here.
