Lord knows there have been some travesties over the last decade that showcased the gross hypocrisy of our civic leaders. Certainly one of them has been the January 6 debacle of creating an “insurrection” out of a “mildly violent protest”. That sad episode is continuing to play out and we shall wait to see the final chapter.
The
other tragedy that has been commandeered by the progressive movement is the
death of George Floyd. I submit for your
review a short documentary film and a two-part literary article on this piece of Minneapolis,
Minnesota history.
In
both of these events, we see what can happen when the mainstream media chooses
to follow its baser instincts rather than its professional ethics. It will be years and years before we can
truly appreciate the damage done to our nation by the dishonest, biased, and
self-serving reporting that was part and parcel of these sad chapters in
American life. The cost in human
lives, real property, and lost opportunities is beyond estimate.

Now…a
few quick hits…..
Our
Executive Branch of government has been over-valued, over-filled, and
overly-impressed with itself for some time now…spanning years of power enjoyed
by both national political parties. It is
corrupt, ineffective, and inefficient.
It needs to be shrunken, emptied of its filth, and carefully considered as
to its future.
DEI
continues to run amok and it has now thoroughly infected
the branch of our government that literally guarantees our safety and freedom.
“THIS”
is the federal department that our Congress and
our President decided needed an additional $80 billion budget increase and
20,000 new employees.
When
you are spending more for administrators than you are for teachers, you
know it will eventually lead up to this.

Are
the upcoming
elections in November going to be a replay of the 2020 clusterfluk or
have we learned how to correct and monitor our voting problems? Doing the same things over and over and
expecting different results remains the definition of insanity.

How
about we take a good hard look at our economy?
Are times as bad as they seem sometimes?
Is the gap between the “haves”
and the “have nots” widening as
quickly and dramatically as it appears to be?
Is the American dream disappearing with the struggles of families to
build their futures? Are there really
that many people living from paycheck to paycheck with no provision for rainy
days or emergencies? How do we reconcile
the contradictions that we can all see in the economic statistics being bandied
about? Perhaps we should turn down the
noise and simply look at the numbers. Ball
don’t lie.

One
of the problems with our form of government is that when the Supreme Court of
the United States must
decide whether a specific action by the Legislative Branch or the
Executive Branch is constitutionally legal….its determinations simply take too long and are oftentimes too narrow. And even then, when the Executive Branch is
called out for overstepping its bounds and authorities due to inappropriate
Executive Action, it simply finds another side street to travel until
that particular misadventure works its way through the court system to
correction. Unfortunately… by that time,
a whole lot of damage is done.
