If you see the President, tell him from me that whatever happens there will be no turning back. (Ulysses S. Grant)
During the course of 1989, more and more East Germans lost their fears of the state's repression and chicanery and went out on the streets. There was no turning back then. It is thanks to their courage the Wall was opened. (Angela Merkel)
We learned about honesty and integrity - that the truth matters... that you don't take shortcuts or play by your own set of rules... and success doesn't count unless you earn it fair and square. (Michelle Obama)
Truth will always be truth, regardless of lack of understanding, disbelief or ignorance. (W. Clement Stone)
Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters. (Albert Einstein)
So now what…honestly, the more we know and understand the facts, which until now have been twisted, ignored, and defined as lies and as a gaggle of witch hunts…how do we as a nation act…not react, because to react gives the impression we are on the defense. It is so much easier, in this nation to break a law than being held responsible for your errors. We pretend, in this nation that somehow because someone is called the President, he (and hopefully one day she), is somehow above reproach, or even considering them a common citizen is tyranny or creating more chaos… Guilt, guilty, culpable, arrogant, ignorant, selfish, self-serving…yet Trump remains in office, shitting all over our Constitution, and sincerely ignoring the origins and definition of democracy…not any democracy, but ours, your country, my country!
I am so tired of hearing overly paid Talking Heads or supposed journalists, demanding we speak not of Impeachment, or we dwell more on the future disregarding the past and sadly the present. What lessons have taught the next generation aside from the fact that Global warming is no big deal, affordable health care a privilege, the color of your skin is God’s punishment, and of course women are nothing but an annoying extra rib Adam once had…have we lost the desire to find justice, to define equality, to admonish ANYONE, from peasant to president for their wrongdoings, their con, and their selfish intent to deceive, divide, and destroy? SO NOW WHAT?!
