Let’s Look at What is Happening in America Today: April 17, 2024
Op-ed by

I can’t believe I’m writing this. This article is about a
country I have never heard of, certainly not the country where I was born and
raised.
The subject matter is more about our country’s overall
condition than individual events. Let me just say right up front that the
division within our nation began in 2015. It has become so severe, the United
States is currently engaged in a Second Civil War. Currently it is bloodless,
but that could soon change.
Trump’s supporters continue to accept lies as facts, not
because Trump is a legitimate leader, because they agree with “Big Adolf” and
his American Fascist Party’s plan for our nation’s future. His “army” is
composed of different groups with a single bond: their fascist beliefs. We call
them “Neo-Nazis” in 2024, but they could also be called “The Confederacy.”
Regardless, their ambitions are the same.
A DAY OFF: MORE TIME FOR A LONG NAP?
Today, Donald Trump was not in a courtroom. It was a day off
for the lifetime criminal and the man
who will forever be remembered as our nation’s biggest and most infamous
traitor.
However, the day off did not prevent Trump from whining
about his “hush money trial.” This time he complained about jury selection. On
Monday and Tuesday, the process allowed him to take a nap as the process to
select a qualified jury continued. It is clear this room is not occupied by
“his people.” Trump’s anger is the result of one fact: he is not in control.
His life is now in control of a judge and the men and women who will decide his
fate when the process is complete.
PROOF THE SUPREME COURT MUST BE SUBJECT TO TERM LIMITS
Meanwhile, the “Kavanaugh Klan,” consisting of six corrupt
Supreme Court justices, is seeking a way to have about one-third of the
traitors who took part in the violent insurrection on January 6, 2021
exonerated for their attempted coup.
Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett have
been looking for a loophole in the Justice Department’s prosecution of the
Neo-Nazis whose violent actions on the darkest day in American history was
undeniably an effort to overthrow our democratic government.
The next step for the most corrupt SCOTUS will be to uphold
Trump’s ludicrous and unconstitutional claim that he has “absolute presidential
immunity.”
THE “DO-NOTHING” HOUSE CONTINUES TO WASTE TIME AND MONEY
Also on this day the Senate refused to conduct an
impeachment trial for Alejandro Mayorkas, Secretary of Homeland Security. He
was impeached by the House, under the control of the fascist “Freedom Caucus,”
without reason or evidence. For months they have done nothing but waste the
time and money of tax-paying Americans.
It is the corrupted House which is responsible for 2023
becoming a complete failure. During a calendar year, 200-600 bills are normally
passed in Congress. However, in 2023, only 34 were signed into law.
IF UKRAINE FALLS INTO THE CONTROL OF VLADIMIR PUTIN,
RIGHT-WING POLITICIANS IN THE HOUSE WILL BE TO BLAME
Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, attempted to pass a bill
giving additional aid to Ukraine in its effort to defend itself against the
ongoing Russian invasion. It appears that it will fail.
Radicals who admit to being supporters of Adolf Hitler and
Vladimir Putin’s ideologies will use an old but effective tactic to block the
bill. They plan to tie aid for Ukraine with packages for Israel and Taiwan.
There is growing opposition against any additional aid for Israel on the Hill
and across America.
IS THE UNITED STATES BROKEN BEYOND REPAIR?
Political ambitions have replaced the democratic process in
Washington. Honest deliberations which are ages-old efforts to provide
compromise no longer occur in the most corrupt government in the world.
This began in 2009 when Moscow Mitch McConnell and then Speaker
of the House, John Boehner, stood before the television cameras immediately
after President Obama’s first inauguration, and promised that their party “would
do nothing as long as ‘that man’ was in the White House.” Moscow Mitch
continues to keep that promise in collusion with Jim Jordan, Matt Gaetz,
Marjorie Taylor Greene, and other members of the Freedom Caucus.
I can only ask one thing from everyone who reads this. Vote
on November 5th. Refuse to vote for a party, vote for the women and
men who will serve your needs and wishes. This is the only way for the dreams
of our Founding Fathers to continue.
