NO MORE BS: Lest We Forget
With multiple religions having records, beliefs, and access to Isaiah's writings, I begin with a compelling point from the Old Testament.
"Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay: for shall, the work say of him that made it, he made me not? Or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, he had no understanding? (Isaiah 29:16)"
Having watched the events of this new year unfold, this verse of scripture has taken on a new life. Consider how the naysayers have turned the speech from President Trump to a spontaneous show of support, into a call to storm the capitol. Turning things upside down for a political point is a revered tool of the political left, and the world has watched, many in glee, to see this trouble and torment occur. Frankly, my honest man betrayed sensibilities feel like a Sherman Tank hit them!
The verse above from Isaiah also speaks to another point needing discussion; the work we do has consequences we cannot escape! Accountability and responsibility follow the choices we make, like shadows; accountability and responsibility are ours to accept or reject, but they never go away! For example, Speaker Pelosi spent the better part of 6-months refusing to help Americans during this governmentally fed emotional hysteria called "COVID," but as soon as Biden/Harris won, fraudulently, the presidency, it was time to hurry up and act! Now, Speaker Pelosi has exercised her "Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS)" and ramrodded another erroneous impeachment through the US House of Representatives. Aided and abetted by, if the count is correct, ¾'s of the GOP, acting as craven yellow-belly spineless entities.
What will the future say of harassing an innocent person, all because it was "politickly expedient?" Nothing Good! The accountability for this disaster entirely rests upon the shoulders of those participating in the public lynching of a sitting president, and that is beyond detestable behavior!
Companies can give and take at their discretion to the political parties of their choice; that matters not. But, if you claim to represent the American People, duly elected, and you weaponize government to browbeat, hammer, control the electorate, you will be held accountable! Hence, I call for the voters to begin holding the newly formed 117th Congress to task for their misbehavior.
Speaker Pelosi, why did you invite COVID positive people with acute flu-like symptoms to vote in the House? How much money did you spend on useless plexiglass partitions? The erection of those partitions occurred in the dark of night, with no oversight, no discussion, no knowledge of the American people. What funds did you take the people's money from to pay for the wages and materials? What was the contract process for the work to be accomplished? How did these sick representatives arrive in Washington and leave Washington? If COVID is as bad as you have been harping on from Jan 2020 to today, why were these House members exempt from the COVID-related security checks and other nonsense heaped upon Americans?
If your two supporters for your speakership were allowed to travel freely, then COVID is not as dire and dangerous as you have been preaching. What about those members who were exposed and have now tested positive because your decisions put them in the House of Representatives while contagious? May their families sue you personally for lost wages, harm, and being infected with COVID?
Speaker Pelosi, how did the metal detectors get added over a weekend? Why has the security to the "People's House" been increased, and where did the funds originate? Why were the previous security measures acceptable for other capitol groups, but somehow after what appears to be a staged riot, the security measures are no longer adequate? Do you know why the riot and the response to the extreme citizen behavior appear staged; the security people had lots of warnings from the FBI for months that a demonstration of support for President Trump was being arranged on social media. Why were the capital guards not doubled? Why were the security entrances not better manned?
Take another large group who came to the capital, BLM. The guards for the House were doubled, on alert, and ready if anything happened. As House Speaker, Speaker Pelosi has the power to direct DC Police and other law enforcement agencies. Still, for a Trump Support event, magically, all the security protocols were purposefully not instituted, but after damage and a riot that left five people dead, it is suddenly time to tighten security checks and policies. Something is wrong and smells to high heaven!
While we are on the subject of the riot and the potential for that riot to have been staged and managed, where is individual accountability? President Trump never encouraged violence or violent demonstrations. I have watched the speech he gave; President Trump said exactly the opposite and urged for law and order. In President Trump, America has witnessed a politician who is 100% supportive of the "Rule of Law." Totally the opposite of you, Speaker Pelosi, previous presidents (Clinton and Obama come readily to mind), and so many other elected officials in and out of Washington, it makes me sick.
Yet, you have wasted valuable time in the 117th Congress to blackball, criticize, shame, and express disdain while weaponizing the Federal Government against President Trump, his family, his associates, his administration representatives, and a host of other private citizens. Why? I cannot believe this is all TDS, especially since before Donald Trump became President Trump, you and the rest of the liberal-leftists loved Donald Trump. Explain why you and your politically connected cronies have belittled, attacked, and heaped shame on a person you used to admire for his work, dedication, and kindness? All of you sure took his money fast enough as political donations; Et Tu, Brute?
America is in a crisis, largely made by politicians of both parties, fed by an emotional media, and protected by a weaponized government. How many times has Pelosi promised to "Drain the Swamp" the metaphorical reference to the appalling actions and behaviors, largely from her party, and yet, has never lifted a finger in action? Another verse of scripture fits here with a little adaptation.
"My soul is sore vexed: but thou, O Lord, how long" (Psalm 6: 3)?
How long Speaker Pelosi? How long liberal leftists? How long will America have to be sorely vexed before charges are brought for your treason and vilification of America? How long will America be patronized by one-side of your mouths and vilified from the other side? How long will honest men and women be called terrorists for serving in America's military arms while you enjoy the liberty of their service? My soul is sore vexed; I know millions of other people share in that sentiment. Thus, how long will you proclaim to be the head of the People's House of elected representatives and continue to ignore, shame, and abhor the people of these the United States of America, a free people, under law, a Republic like none other in history?
