trump & Covid-19

trump has Covid-19 and because of 3.9 years of LIES, many Americans simply did not believe it to be true. His debate performance was classic trump. Bullying. Lies. He can’t debate since he doesn’t know anything. Many on social media assumed that trump knew he utterly failed in the first debate and probably didn’t want a repeat, and beside that the next debate format was in the style of a Town Hall. He can’t handle that format. trump’s in his white supremacist bubble and engaging with the American people outside of his cult is dangerous for him.

So, how sick is he? We’re getting conflicting reports. trump’s putting up video to keep his toxic “manly” image in front of his base. More importantly, how many people did the White House infect? Turns out the Amy Coney Barrett SCOTUS theft event was a superspreader. After that, trump traveled to Minnesota and probably knew he was already exposed to Covid-19 by time he went to his New Jersey fundraiser at Bedminster. Dangerous Donald strikes again. Folks better get tested.

The Gutting of the Voting Rights Act

If I were a tennis player, which I am not, and I had to score a match between the United States Supreme Court vs the American people, I would score it “50 No Love”. No, that is not a valid tennis score, but this week’s decision by the Supreme Court to cut out the heart of the Voting Rights Act is also an invalid score for bigotry, and it is utterly contemptible! There ain’t no love in it. Since the election and reelection of Barack Hussein Obama the racist and fascist elements of the United States have villified, demonized, obstructed, resisted, rebelled, practiced sedition, fabricated scandal, threatened impeachment, secession and physical ill will against our black President.

I can hear the conversation now, it probably went something like, “We must never again allow a black president to be elected. We gotta kill the Voting Rights Act! John Roberts is just the man for the job.” That probable conversation was neither videotaped nor recorded, but hope springs eternal that some whistle-blower was in proximity. Unfortunately, the John Roberts Supreme Court has proven to be all that it can be, disgustingly partisan, demonstrating judicial activism, and according to Justice Ginsberg, hubris. From the Citizens United decision to the VRA. The SCOTUS may have won this game for fascist-loving, right-wing Republicans and Tea Party bigots, but they will not win this match. You can read all about this recent SCOTUS travesty at The Grio.

This is the wake up call of our time. I challenge all Americans, but especially marginalized disenfranchised, neglected and poor people like never before to do what you must to vote. Get your documents in order now in preparation for 2014. Unjust laws and impediments are being crafted already, especially in Southern states, making it harder for people to vote. We must not be deterred. Do what you must and vote!
