Threat To Democracy

Submitted by ub on

SOS -After a half-century, there is an increased threat to democracy. Our way of life is in peril and we may lose it all from within. This according to new statistics released on inequality data.

Researchers point out there is nothing new, just that it has now increased to an alarming rate. In the past, Democratic governments, international organizations, and nongovernmental organizations slowly responded but when the largest democracy on earth is threatened is creates erosions of the global democratic process.

Hiring Best or Worst?

Has @POTUS been hiring the best people to represent the US and make America great? @realDonaldTrump promised his base he would hire the best people, so why does he keep hiring the worst and making mistakes?

He claimed to be self-funding by hiring the best, not the biggest donors... So what happened to his promises?

Trump promised to hire "... the best people, and repeated it several times, suggesting that whenever he keeps repeating something beware. Was it a mean-spirited trick, or a treat, is this one of his big ideas gone bust, or perhaps a bait and switch?

Wake up, everyone everywhere around the world. Sorry for the slap in the face but consider this as a wake-up call and a warning for the coming days of whines and overdoses.

Please take a hard look at the world we live in today as some of the most powerful nations are either causing mass destruction, while others are turning their heads to look the other way.

FCC's 3 Blind Rats

How did three unelected men ignore the will of 83% Of the American people? TRUMP's GOP is the real answer.

Folks have a right to be guarded about internet regulations. Throughout the history of human civilization access to information has been controlled by those in power, countless generations of which have given rise to the profoundly sick power-serving society we find ourselves in today. The invention of the internet gave humanity its first-ever access to the widespread unhindered democratization of ideas and information, and if we’re ever to overthrow the pernicious power structures which perpetuate the continual omnicidal trend toward war and ecocide which threatens us our species with extinction, widespread internet access will surely play a role in that effort.

Therefore we have gotten squeezed out following recent poll from the University of Maryland’s Program for Public Consultation which found that 83 percent of Americans favor existing net neutrality regulations, including 75 percent of Republicans.

Even if you don’t like that poll we’ve yet to see a single survey that doesn’t make it abundantly clear that this repeal is something the overwhelming majority of Americans do not want, and yet three unelected bureaucrats are ramrodding it down their throats anyway.

MEMO MIA

Submitted by ub on

While it was missing in action for a while, the timing of the release of the infamous memo was curious, to say the least. Timing is everything. The Schiff memo dropped while Devin Nunes was onstage at CPAC and was receiving a 'Defender of Freedom' Award. Trump GOP theatrics?
