As we continue to stumble & stagger our way into the Aquarian age; the planet and all of us on it are facing challenges that seem, and indeed may be, insurmountable. Despite startling evidence of several looming disasters staring us squarely in the face, we continue to abuse this planet, and ourselves, as if we had somewhere else to move. Profit before progeny; Business as usual.
Sometimes before we can fully understand things we need to
take a few steps back to take in the big picture and see the broader strokes of
unfolding "reality." This
applies equally in our personal lives as well as in the world around us. Things seldom make sense without some
perspective on the issues.
Unfortunately for all of us living here; there are no other
planets we can reach and even if there were we
no longer have a manned space program to get us there. One of the reasons America no longer has a
manned space program is due to the massive amount of space junk and garbage
orbiting the planet at 17,500 MPH .
Seven years after the nuclear meltdown at Fukushima Pacific ocean into
a dead zone where the toxic radiation is working it's way up the food chain to us.
Last year Pacific tuna caught were inspected; and 15 out of
15 had high levels of radioactivity; the Pacific ocean
has been totally contaminated by Fukushima Japan Fukushima
That spewing nuclear volcano sends up plumes of airborne
radioactive fallout every day, just like old
faithful at Yellowstone , only way more deadly. Between Fukushima
Over 35 earthquakes have shaken the Yellowstone
super volcano just this week, adding even more stress to a geologically
unstable area and a 35 by 40 mile wide volcano which some experts say is
overdue for a major eruption. If the Yellowstone
volcano does erupt it could cover more than half the country in volcanic ash
and trigger environmental catastrophes including a "volcanic winter." Just
as with Fukushima
Here in Trumpland
I never dreamed I'd live to see the day when democracy died,
but fascist, autocratic dictators are cropping up everywhere, not just in America
The FBI was
investigating Russia
I think we're all on
solid ground if we refer to 45 as a Mythomaniac!
His tactic is childishly simple; barrage the media with so many lies,
exaggerations and half-truths that nobody can fact
check them all much less respond to each one.
His other tactic we know so well is to attack others to divert attention
from him.
The Trump who defiantly shouted that Mexico
The closer Mueller gets to nabbing Trump, the more rallies
Trump holds, almost as if he cannot function (at his normal level of low) without the injection of cheering
crowds in decreasing numbers and increasing average age. This narcissistic man-child is so unhinged
that while recently speaking to the VFW he actually said "What you're seeing and reading is
not what's happening."
Straight out of George Orwell's 1984 novel.
If that doesn't worry you just a little then perhaps this
will: Trump recently revoked the security clearance of former top intelligence
official John Brennan, who has been a vocal opponent. If you like irony you'll love this: Trump
said he revoked Brennan's security clearance because of his wild rants on
social media against Trump, and abnormal, erratic behavior in public. You simply can't make this shit up folks, it
kinda writes itself.
The worrisome part of all this is, the same day Trump
released a list of ten other people who might be next to have their security
clearances revoked. A very effective way
to silence your opposition. He no doubt
got the idea from Putin...and if those he tries to silence won't shut up, what
then, poison perhaps? Oh yeah, and the
next day he told white house chief of staff John
Kelly to have fired aide Omarosa
arrested, although he couldn't come up with what law she allegedly broke. Just more diversion & distraction from the Russia
"Trump has embarrassed us in the eyes of our
children,
humiliated us on the world stage, and worst of all
divided us as a nation"
~ (Ret) Admiral Bill McCraven

In case you missed it somehow, Trump has recently declared
space to be a war fighting arena and
that he is going to create "Space
Force" as a fifth arm of Americas military. In Washington America
What happens in 2020
when we and the Russians will pick another president? Hopefully the 4 million young people who just
became eligible voters will show up at the polls to even the odds, and Trump
will be defeated even in the electoral college.
Do you think The defeated Trump would leave with grace & dignity?
Not a chance. He will dig in his
heels screaming deep state, & fake
news - even as the straight jacket is put on him.
I never thought I would see the day when my constitutional
right to free speech would be restricted to government chosen areas far from
the ears of those being protested. We
first saw them in the first G.W. Bush administration. They were getting tired of renting busses to
block Bush's sight of the protesters, until one genius got the idea of finding
already fenced in areas far from the president's view and designated them as
"Free Speech Zones."
I never thought I would live to see the day when my
government would steal immigrant children from their parents for fun & profit, but that is exactly what is
happening. With so much public outcry of
resentment; the government slowly began giving some
of those 2000 kids back but only
after the parents forked over $800 bucks for DNA testing. The majority of those 2000 children just
disappeared into thin air, and the government will not account for them. You just take note & watch; in time some will show up as victims of human
trafficking outlaws.
Trump recently paid a wad of cash to the farmers (unions)
after seriously fucking them over with his recent tariffs, and he will brag
about that to no end but what he won't tell us is he borrowed the money from China
On August 19th it was Rudy
Giuliani who was quoting Orwell's 1984 when he blatantly said "Truth isn't Truth" while discussing
the Russia
How apathetic do we have to be when the president schemes
with the Russians, rips the constitution to shreds and starts quoting George Orwell? Good God folks, if it looks like a skunk, ad it smells
lie a skunk - it's a damn skunk!
It was bad enough when all we had to deal with was rigged
voting and stolen elections. It's quite
another thing to have our strongest enemy secretly screwing around with our
elections. Right this minute the
Russians are still at it, seeking to skew the results of our mid-term
and 20/20 elections; and nobody is lifting a hand to stop them.
Trump not only fired Comey
for investigating him, he has also fired 7 of the 8 top FBI agents working for Comey. Factoring in Trumps many and deep connections
to Russia
Just remember that everything happening now, and all that
will follow are the direct result of Obama once making fun of a thin-skinned,
arrogant, childish narcissist. Trumps
revenge is to un-do everything Obama did, and for that alone he should be
impeached and in jail.
With the deployment of the patriot act, Carnivore & Eschelon the government began reading
our email and listening to our phone calls we became a surveillance society
right out of "1984" and every administration since has been paving
the road to American fascism.
You may have heard about the isolated New
Mexico
Elsewhere, the scientific group who operates the doomsday clock has recently added climate change to the list of things endangering
human survival on this planet; and companies are now selling backpacks with
bullet proof Kevlar inserts for school kids, and parents are buying
them in great numbers. It was recently
reported that 68% of baby food samples had at least one heavy metal in them, which health officials are calling
worrisome...I call it alarming! What are
they doing to us?
Taking those steps back to gain perspective; I don't
exaggerate when I say that we are
between a rock & a hard place no
matter where we turn. There just seems
to be no easy way out of this multi-level disaster unfolding before our astonished
eyes; especially when those in power fan the flames of chaos and hatred with
every breath.
There is one thing we can do as concerned
citizens, and that is to vote in such overwhelming numbers that all the
electing tampering doesn't matter. Voter
suppression has resulted in so much voter apathy that nobody cares anymore
because they don't think their vote counts.
But what if it did? Suppose we got
our shit together just long enough to speak with a single, deafening voice on election
day. I wonder what that would look like.
