why it matters

 Kari Lake was a television news anchor in Phoenix for decades. Now, the Arizona gubernatorial candidate bashes the media as propagandists and uses her on-air savvy to rally Trump supporters. (Los Angeles Times)

 

Why this matters to me…to bash the media (always any media which is not FOX, FOX Like, or the Right of FOX) and insist they are LIARS or FALSE, to continue to bathe in TRUMP LIES, to encourage Americans to distrust any election from which non-Right-Wing Fascist candidates might win…TO DO ALL OF THESE THINGS and more, matters to ME…because all of these things lead to the demise of democracy and the rise of Right-Wing Nationalism!

 

China warned Monday that its military "won't sit idly by" if House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) visits Taiwan. (Axios)             

 

Why this matters to me…Xi Jinping, President of China, is a calculating, Authoritarianist a liar, a con man, a dictator who has a disregard for the freedoms of the common man or woman, and who has demonstrated his ill will to obtain power across the globe. From his false promises to maintain a Democratic and free Hong Kong, to his “back door” meetings with Putin, this man’s word cannot be trusted, and he seldom is held accountable. And now Xi Jinping is espousing how US Policy should be handled and making threats against our nation, trying to hold on to an ally. I would think that the US had learned its lessons way back in WW2, by thinking concessions would work as Hitler invaded Czechoslovakia, and in our current events, how Putin was considered some kind of trusted friend, even after he invaded Crimea. THIS MATTERS TO ME, because too many politicians on the left side of politics seem to think BOTH sides play equally fair!

 

Two separate stories, but for me, BOTH are similar…Lies, Hate, Falsehoods, and Anti-Democratic machinations, are equals to EVIL, while GOOD somehow is always sucker-punched!
