INSURRECTION IS A SERIOUS CRIME!
They’re watching. The next group of insurrectionist is watching.They are waiting to see how serious the courts are in sentencing those who participated in the January 6th attempt at insurrection. The first sentence delivered yesterday does not bode well for sending the right message. The court took the position that because the defendant had no […]
Be Very Alarmed!!
I didn’t comment on yesterday’s appearance of the Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and the the Chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff General Mark Milley. I needed to spend some time thinking about the assault launched on the US military establishment in general and specifically its flag leadership. I served in the United States […]
The Fall As Begun!
Today every American got the opportunity to witness irony first hand. The same Republicans who voted to make Juneteenth a federal holiday today showed you how they really feel. Not ONE of the fifty Republicans voted to bring the question of voting rights to the Senate floor. Not one was willing to break ranks and […]
Three Card Monty!!
I’m cursed. I rarely am able to shutdown my mind. Sometimes in the middle of the night I’ll be awakened by my brain churning some thought or idea. Sometimes I effectively communicate my position, sometimes I don’t. Last night I said that Juneteenth was not a step forward for black people. In hindsight I failed […]
Don’t Be Fooled!
Oh the games people play. We are being bombarded with the mantra that crime is on the increase. They are telling you that cities across the nation are being overwhelmed by a growing crime rate. What better way too stifle the cries for police reform. Brilliantly designed and executed. What they aren’t telling you is […]
The Truth!
Everyday that I live on this earth I learn something. Some of the lessons are priceless and others not so much. Yesterday someone took exception to one of my commentaries and called me a con man. I’m a thinker so I had to ponder what had brought them to that conclusion. I write my commentaries […]
Things Are Not Better!!
I’m not necessarily a big Bill Maher fan however last night I watched his show. The subject of woke culture came up and I must say I found it viscerally offensive. Bill went on a tirade about things not being as bad as people make them out to be. He mentioned the Massacre at Greenwood […]
All or Nothing Now!
The Democrats blinked after January 6th and the Republicans were watching. In a prize fight when your opponent is on the ropes and ready to go down for the count you don’t let them off the ropes. After the attempted insurrection the Democrats had the Republicans by the short hairs. If on January 20th President […]
Do The People Still Have The Will??
I woke up this morning and I found myself asking when are my fellow Americans going to get it? What we experienced over the last few years was not a temporary aberration. It was a fundamental shift in the nation’s moral compass. Things won’t be returning back to what we want to define as normal. […]
Message To Joe Manchin!!
Joe Manchin if you really care about the people of West Virginia let me remind you that President Biden’s infrastructure and jobs bill will helps West Virginia. Allow me to remind you that West Virginia as an unemployment problem and a poverty problem. West Virginia as an unemployment level that ranks it 30th in the […]
