This past week has been loaded with incidents that we as Americans who treasure our democracy should be made aware of.
First, it must be acknowledged that the six men who died when the runaway container ship destroyed the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore were ALL migrants who entered the U.S. through our infamous southern border. They didn’t come here to rape or pillage or live on our famous welfare system. They came here for the jobs Americans didn’t want like repairing potholes in the deck of a bridge at 2:30 in the morning. I am disgusted every time I hear useless politicians like Bob “Good-for-Nothing” or lying Donald Trump degrade these workers. When have they done anything as useful as repairing a pothole? Never.
Next, I want to accuse Speaker Mike Johnson of being an unregistered agent of the Russian government. How else does one explain his blatant refusal to bring to a vote the Ukrainian aide favored by most of the American people, the majority of his fellow Representatives, the Senate, and the Biden Administration? He alone is the reason the Ukrainians are running low on the ammunition they need to defend their country. He is acting as if Vladimir Putin is giving him instructions. His actions should be immediately investigated and all of his financial records scrutinized for Russian payments.

Next, it is well past time to stop all military aid to the genocidal Israeli government who this week knowingly slaughtered international aide workers in Gaza. The murdered were just doing their part to relieve the suffering of the million Palestinians the Israelis seem determined to kill by starvation. Netanyahu’s government does not need any more weapons to use on helpless women and children. Cut them off.
Vote for Democratic democracy, not Trumpian dictatorship.
