US Against The World

Submitted by ub on

Nearly 200 years ago, in 1823, President James Monroe's doctrine prevented imperial powers foreign to our Western Hemisphere from acquiring territories anywhere in The Americas or seeking undue influence. This was the cornerstone of #USA grand strategy.

American foreign influence once referred to how we behaved towards other nations. Now we're told there are countries turning the tables on us and global leaders like Russia and now China dares interfere in our internal affairs.

War on Truth and Justice

Submitted by ub on

There is a war on truth and justice, where some members in our government may have become complicit. The most recent battle has POTUS Trump and his administration opening up a new front in the war on the rule of law. First, judges were attacked, then FBI, then DOJ and now the World Court? What’s going on here folks?

I remember as a child hearing the phrase Truth and Justice and the American way. What has happened since then? PBS Superheroes https://youtu.be/xtQ-pA6uM3c

Elected vs Selected

An unqualified individual can be elected without the popular vote. We have seen this time and again in our democracy. When someone is selected, it usually signifies they're the very best person available for the job.

Donald John Trump was born June 14, 1946, and 70 years later won the election while losing the popular vote. However, he currently is the 45th and current President of the United States. #POTUS has been in office since January 20, 2017. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and became famous by an NBC TV Show.

Working @Walmart

Why would Walmart hire a top DOJ official? The Justice Department’s third-ranking official, Rachel Brand has a job at Walmart adding trouble an agency with vacancies plus criticism from The White House?

Follow the signs and wonder what are they trying to prevent, or hide here? Four DOJ topper posts are vacant. Division heads at civil, criminal and national security, plus now #3 slot as leaves for Walmart? Thank you for shopping Walmart. https://youtu.be/g-XGv_BsAA0 https://youtu.be/CjSSj7-eyYk https://youtu.be/BV-F3lH3jO0

CSI USA

Submitted by ub on

The United States of America must conduct an investigation and consider canceling special interest influence and donations. These culprits are spreading cancer and endangering our government by increasingly infiltrating our political system of government.

Special interests are the predatory animals which are devouring our democracy. Some of these toxic groups direct public policy and increasingly play a destructive part in the development of political and social systems. Special interests are demeaning and patronizing. They've gone wild and are now dangerous and out of control.

The Need to Kneel

Before anyone says athletes have nothing to do with politics or breaking barriers we have this news to share....

First of all, when some folks pray, they kneel. Following the year-old controversy that Colin Kaepernick started, more NFL players and other athletes are reacting by sitting or taking a knee before games to protest what they perceive as racial inequities in the nation’s criminal justice system.

The State of Sanctuary

Submitted by ub on

A sanctuary city limits cooperation with the federal government's effort to enforce immigration law. Sanctuary cities reduce the fear of deportation and possible family break-up among those who are in the country illegally so that such people will be more willing to report crimes, use health and social services, and enroll their kids in school.

These policies prohibit public employees from questioning people about their immigration status and refuses requests by immigration authorities to detain people beyond their release date if they are jailed for breaking local law.

Paranoia and Protection

Submitted by ub on

Joseph Michael Arpaio is a convicted criminal awaiting sentencing as of August 2017. He was the elected Sheriff of Maricopa County, Arizona, from 1993 through 2016.

@POTUS says “I’ll make a prediction: I think he’s going to be just fine.” He traveled Tuesday to Arizona, where he all but promised to pardon disgraced former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio at some point.
