Last night, I was channel surfing and stopped to watch #MSNBC’s @Lawrence on cable TV. O’Donnell, whom I had met years earlier when Lawrence was a guest on The McLaughlin Group program I was co-producing. On last night's show  Lawrence was interviewing Aaron Sorkin and Sasha Baron Cohen about their award-winning film.

The US Senate begins former president Donald Trump’s second impeachment trial today in an unprecedented Congressional action.

Trump failed more than 60 court challenges in his false narrative that our election was stolen, so why does he keep lying about it? 
If Senate Republicans wanted to they could unite this great nation by convicting Donald Trump showing he is a no good liar

Please, allow me to tell you a real story I personally lived through. Once upon a time, there were two republics. Both had constitutions, laws, civil rights, a government, a congress, and a court system of law. The people could assemble, associate, speak, and write with freedom.

But as the people became unsatisfied with their governments, they chose to support new officials and were fooled by fake images of religion and a better life before reality began to set in.

Florida Cracker Wisdom

Florida Crackers are American pioneers, their family members, and all their descendants who live in what is now the Sunshine State.

The first wave of these settlers arrived in 1763 after Spain traded Florida to Great Britain following the latter's victory over France in the Seven Years' War.

The main reason why Florida is so important in the election is because of its swing-state status. In the election, Florida is worth a total of 29 electoral votes, more than any other traditional swing state.

Electoral College Failure

Submitted by ub on

The Electoral College is a mechanism established by the #USA Constitution for the election of the president and vice president of the United States by small groups of appointed representatives, electors, from each state, including the District of Columbia.

Some say #ElectoralCollege was cooked up by slave states included in our Constitution to hold onto power. What say you?

BoB Mueller Testifies Before Congress

Submitted by ub on

Former Special Counsel Robert Mueller testified before the House Judiciary and House Intelligence Committees on the Russia investigation and the published report released by his office.

He won on the facts, but not on his television 📺 image and persona. He did warn Congress that he was not willing to testify.

Mueller proved once and for all that not only does Muller know best But also warned Americans to protect our future elections from Russian and other foreign interference, and reminded everyone that not everyone has done their homework and read his entire report.

Abolish The Electoral College

POTUS ratings are under water in all the national polls. However, Donald Trump’s possible re-election might not be quite so bleak.
This one is a worst rip-off than buying a degree from Trump University.

His advantage in the Electoral College, relative to the popular vote, may now be even larger than it was in 2016, according to analysts of national election results and polling data.

Active Threats

Submitted by ub on

US government officials outlined "active threats" to U.S. elections as it briefed Congress Wednesday on steps the government has taken to improve election security in the wake of Russian interference in 2016.

The threat posed by Russia to #USA and other Western interests is unlike anything seen since the recent past. Russia has forces or proxies deployed in Cuba, Venezuela, Syria, Ukraine and, others. There is smoke, but there is also fire and there is a lot of fuel being added every day.
