A govenment of the people, by the people, for the people is not a two-party plutocracy where corporations and the uber-wealthy control the government and control the very narrative we hear every day. It's a war between personal freedom and liberty versus authoritarianism and tyranny.
You know. We all carry on with our Supposed Normal day, I do my Best to keep a Positive attitude no matter what I am doing but lately I am not as Positive. I look at the Fella and his Wife at the airport with no Mask, I see the daily Road Rage, I see it right there before me and wonder WTF happened. Where are we going and who is Leading? Seems we as Americans, all of Us no longer count? Maybe Blacks live on another planet although McConnell did all he could do to keep the Tan Suit wearing gentleman at the Helm.? I am at Odds, at times I no longer know WTF to think or believe in, I am more concerned about Ukraine to be Honest.

Fraud: See Jan. 6 Witnesses Confronted With Coup Evidence On TV
Some members of the January 6th Committee are apparently growing worried about Republican threats to investigate Democrats if they go hard against Republicans via the committee. But Republicans have already said they are going to make that happen anyway, so now is the time to go as big and as hard as humanly possible against these Republicans. There is no honor in the GOP, and going soft on them now won't stop them from being completely jackasses in the future, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains.

A new report from The Guardian this week suggested that some of the members of the January 6th select committee are starting to get cold feet about actually issuing subpoenas to certain Republicans in Congress, to compel them to come and testify and of course, turn over documents to the committee itself. And the reason they're getting cold feet is because they don't want Republicans to retaliate against them. So here's what's happening. Republicans have made it very clear in Congress that if you continue to harass us with investigations, guess what? When we gain power, this coming November most likely, we're gonna do the same to you. We're gonna go and we're gonna form committees and we're gonna investigate Hunter Biden's laptop. We're gonna investigate the Afghanistan withdrawal. We're gonna investigate the supply chain failures. We're gonna investigate all these things and so now Democrats on the committee are starting to say, oh God, we don't, we don't want that.
So maybe, maybe we need to back off our push to subpoena these individuals, which of course is so typically Democrat, right?
Backing down at the mere thought of a threat that shouldn't even be considered a threat. Republicans are going to do this anyway and I know that because they've, they've already said that. Long before there was any kind of committee looking into Congress, Republicans made it clear that when they retake power, they're investigating everything the Democrats have ever done. Just like they did a couple years ago. That is their plan. They have said it publicly. So this new threat of, if you don't stop harassing us, we're gonna start harassing you. Yeah, they're gonna do it anyway. So don't you dare back down. Furthermore, what are you afraid of anyway? Even if Republicans take power this coming November, they get sworn in next January and then they say, okay, we're investigating Hunter Biden's laptop. Okay. Investigate it. You, you find any kind of criminal activity, cool, arrest people. Like I, I have no problem with that and I don't think anybody should have a problem with that. You want to investigate the Afghanistan withdrawal? Sure. Go ahead. There's nothing criminal about it. So go for it. If you find any criminal activity, again, great lock people up. I don't care which party people are from.
If you break the law as a member of Congress, you should be kicked out. You should go to jail. I'm not so tribal and partisan that I can't say that Democrats breaking the law, you know, they shouldn't be punished. No, they should be punished. If you think you have evidence to put these people away, then by God, put the people away, left right center, whatever the hell it is. Let's not have members of Congress committing crimes. That's what the Democrat should be saying instead of cowering in fear, afraid that Republicans are gonna retaliate against us. They're gonna do it anyway. And you really shouldn't have anything to worry about even if they do. Even if they spent the following two years investigating every aspect of your life, you should be okay with it. Not that anybody wants that kind of invasion of privacy, obviously, but if you don't think they're gonna find any criminal activity, tell 'em, go ahead, call their bluff in public though. Use it as a campaign tactic against them. That's a twofer, by the way.
So... What will the Democrats do now?
Trump Leaves Crowd Silent And Confused (VIDEO)
I say: Let the Idiot keep at it, he is only Digging a Bigger hole he expects his base to pull him up from? Pretty much as far as I am concerned, notice how he and McConnell are Visually Racist.?
Mitch McConnell: Black people vote at similar rates to 'Americans' | ABC7
I sometimes think these Morons forget that All Americans are Americans.? What's your Take?
After nearly 20 years of fighting, for many americans these are the images of war. American troops battling terror groups Al-Qaeda and the Taliban, in the mountains and caves of Afghanistan Isis in Iraqi towns and villages and throughout the Syrian desert, but the way that we fight the next major war is going to look very different from the
Serving in the United States military was the best time of my life the sense of duty the brotherhood the camaraderie the sacrifice the separation the pain even the injuries I loved every second of it I loved everything about being a soldier for the exception of one and that it that I missed out on the opportunity to watch my kids grow.
There's a reason why they call it sacrifice and that's one I'll be honest still stings to this day when i see new parents with their young children that's what I think about and the time that I miss with my kids, but it comes with the territory if we don't serve and spend extended time away from our families our homeland would be at
risk. So that is what it gives us as soldiers the idea that we serve so that our children can grow up in a safe environment. No amount of money in the world can make up for the time spent away from our family. Fifty thousand dollars sign on bonus to join the military.
When I joined I was told I was lucky that I could get in, and you know, many of the people that I served with are probably now thinking, maybe we should try to re-enlist assuming that we could pass the physicals. Ladies and Gentlemen look I understand that the
majority of people that are going to be getting the $50,000 bonus are people that probably would make more money if they stayed on the civilian sector. People like doctors, engineers lawyers and what not.
But the idea that I want to focus on in this video is that our military is willing to give someone $50,000 to join but what do we get when we leave how are our veterans being treated? The ones that have already served and sacrificed? Where's our fifty thousand? Now I'm glad to see new recruits compensated because the extra money and
knowing their families are taken care of financially at least is one less thing a soldier has to worry about and having said that the soldier that only enlists for financial motivation is called a mercenary and we don't want our military to turn into that that is the only thing
that gives me pause when I see a headline like enlist today and earn up to fifty thousand dollars what I also think about is the makeup of our military and how unfortunately the majority of recruits come from lower income backgrounds.
That join because they have no other choice, in Logan county West Virginia 30 years ago when I enlisted it was dig coal, sell dope or
join the army. Guess what in 2022 nothing has changed. Those are the same three options that our next generation has and that bothers me. Truth be told, that's why I went into politics in the first place.
This is what I hope you take away from this video, it is great that the military is incentivizing new recruits with sign-on bonuses that they deserve, but think about their sacrifice and how money really doesn't even come close to making up for what they're about to go through.
For the new recruits you are about to embark on a journey of a
lifetime one that will set you apart. Teach you discipline and life skills that you will carry with you long after you take off your boots. Enjoy your time stay safe and let me be the first to say Thank You for your service.
Sappers
clear the way Airborne all the way!
Would you join the Army today?
I know when I was very young I thought I would like to, but as I aged saw I really do not enjoy being told WTF to do, so I grew out of that right quick. Is it fair to those who have already served, is it fair to those who walk our streets with no home? Last Question: Would it be Fair if they reinstated the Draft.?
Meanwhile it isn't just the former president it's cheering when folks like congressman Katko say they aren't running he is wielding his power through endorsements which can in some cases
reorient an entire field or make a politician bend his or her positions to the former president's will. So who is the former president endorsing? What does
he want the future of the republican party to look like?
Our political unit ran the numbers and here's what we found. This is basically a census if you will of the 93 candidates that the Trump has endorsed. So far since leaving office 73 are men 20 are women 35 are running for u.s. house seats 15 are running for u.s. senate seats 12 are running for governor
about half are incumbents running for re-election, but a notable flanks of 15 Trump-backed candidates are challenging sitting republican office holders who the former president once replaced many of them for what he perceives as disloyalty and you know what disloyalty means.
It means somehow believing not the results of the 2020 election as we've noted before the emerging litmus test for the future republicans is simply an adherence to the former president's lie about 2020. Not surprisingly but importantly 59 of the 93 candidates he's endorsed have questioned the 2020 results some of them voted against the electoral college certification, in congress a total of 10 candidates that has been that have been endorsed by Trump attended his rally in Washington on January 6 of last year. Former president will hold his first rally of the year by the way tomorrow (today) in Arizona and joining him on stage will be his endorsement picks for governor Kari Lake and his pick for secretary of stateMark Fincham. Both candidates who've said they want to decertify Arizona's 2020 election. There will be more endorsements likely to come from the former president as he continues to reshape the republican party in his own image. Will voters like what they see or not?
That's one of the bigger questions as the midterms start to heat up, perhaps the only thing that could hold republicans back is Donald Trump?
I gotta tell you Folks, it really pisses me off this Fool is not in Jail, even more so that he caused the insurrection and free to go about his daily life, what do you folks think, are we seeing Justice or will it be denied us.?
