Labor of Love

We’re not really referring to romantic, spiritual or erotic 💗 Love ❤️ This is about the love of country by practicing our civic duty to vote.

Truly exercising our democracy requires plenty of dedicated work. It involves time for planning, research and then either going to the polls or voting via absentee ballots. Unfortunately, most folks don’t appreciate blessings, such as our freedom to vote until we lose it.

USA Shootings Are Massive

Submitted by ub on

The death toll rises to an unlucky seven after a gunman's rampage left more injured following a routine Texas traffic stop.

The victims range in age from 15 to 57. The 22 wounded at 15 crime scenes included three police officers and a 17-month old baby.

Mass shootings are US and the problem is that #WeThePeople have not made a real fuss and consistently mobilized to stop the carnage. Assault weapons are not for hunting they are to spread fear and this is abundantly clear.

Hurricane Dorian is proving to be a nightmare for forecasters as a few miles may make a huge difference in a slow dance with the coast. The Bahamas, Florida and the Carolinas are bracing for a killer hurricane, but on this 125th anniversary of Labor Day. In 1894, I took a short bike ride to attend Orchard Beach's Swan Song Concert Series.

Maniac Dorian

As forecasters watch Dorian, they warn folks in the Bahama Island to make sure they are bunkered down as the Hurricane gains strength.

The monster storm of this size and strength so close to Florida, it is time to complete preparations just in case the storm moves closer to the coast. Do not be messing around with a storm this large and this powerful. Climate change is beginning to look Real.

Trump may have been attracted to him as he was often called Warrior Chaos, Monk, and Mad Dog.

Comey DOJ Homey

Former FBI Director James Comey has apparently broken Justice Department rules and regulations, but he doesn’t merit prosecution.

Does the US Justice Department Inspector General think that if you are a law enforcement officer and the president tries to shut down a valid investigation, your obligation is to zip it?

A real stable genius would be really scared from a drop in popularity, so you figure out who is real and which are the solid facts here.

#CityImages has reviewed surveys from registered voters across the United States. Along with 2020 presidential election data, tracking the state approval ratings for POTUS, and the more we see the worse it appears to be for him and the GOP.

Not Again!

The Governor of New Jersey and Newark’s Mayor appear to be covering up the seriousness and health severity of lead poisoning. #WeThePeople have seen the exact same chain of events in Flint, Michigan.

While music superstars took to the stage during MTV’s Video Music Awards at Newark’s Prudential Center, protesters outside clashed with police, hoping to draw attention to Newark’s ongoing struggle for clean drinking water. Police thwarted activists, but dozens rushed a public plaza alongside the venue and heckled people waiting on line to get inside.
