White Supremacists are Domestic Terrorists. Period!


Not your typical Sunday Afternoon Parade in Hometown America

 
It's hard to believe what the United States of America has become in four short years. Sure, it had its problems, like any other years.  But the wheels came completely off the tracks this time.  Today, we are divisive, angry, selfish, and tribal.  And many are finding it easier to side with not only our worst adversaries, but they are picking up the banner of someone we fought and thought we destroyed way back in 1945.  The Confederate Flag and the Nazi Swastika Emblem seem to be alive and well in America.

These ugly visual displays are out in full force and marching with other antigovernmental tribes such as: Trump's MAGA, White Supremacists, White Nationalists, Oath Keepers, Proud Boys, QAnon, and a few names we probably haven't even heard yet.  Some of these mobs have been around longer than four years ago, but they have all crawled out of the swamp since the former president welcomed them to his rallies.  He gave them fame and fortune and they are not about to go away.

But the worst side of this story is to come.  America can send these domestic terrorists packing, but they are being encouraged to stick around and are being given aid and comfort to none other than the Grand Old Party of Republicans.  Those right-wing members of the U.S. House and Senate are solidly behind these terrorist mob tactics - some are even participating!

The Republican Party of America has been manhandled, disrupted, and manipulated by Donald J. Trump until it is unrecognizable. They are a shadow of their former self and appear to be quite satisfied with their leader.  Even though his thuggery is gone, several make frequent trips to his Mar-a-Lago Club in Florida to kiss his ring and rump. Unbelievably, many still look to him as the head of their mangled and heading-for-the-cliff band of nitwits!

Until the GOP decides who they really are, America is in a world of hurt.  We not only have to contend with these domestic terrorists but we must also deal with the Republican Party of Trump.

My hope is this:  Bring back the Grand "OLD" Party and get rid of those in Congress who are scaring the hell out of everybody!

Of course, the Republicans have a few newbies who have been recently elected and are scaring the hell out of America, too! Hopefully, they are an anomaly. . . and not a trending thing.

The Trees Kept Voting for the Axe. . .

Opinion by John Watson   "The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe, for  the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood, he was one of them."   - A Turkish Proverb   This proverb reflects the idea that the perpetrator of harm may forget their actions, but the victim will always remember.  Whatever your political leaning, I have found this proverb interesting. For me, it has always found its way into different aspects of  political thoughts and discussions. During this particularly stressful election where our very basic needs are being challenged, The perpetrator has quite easily convinced a large group his base of accepting him because he will get them everything their hearts desire if they will but elect him. It has nothing to do with what he can do for them - it has only to do what they will do for him! He wants what he wants and he asks them to supply the votes. What they will get in return is neither inferred nor

  THE RETRIBUTIONIST He is a legend in his own mind He has promised to call out his Flying Monkeys to wreak hell and damnation on the "enemies of the people." They will be driven from the face of the earth.  Who are they?  The news media. Are there others?  Anyone who won't stand with him.  Once again, Trump is ratcheting up his use of the derisive label to attack the news media. Trump tweeted, "The press is doing everything within their power to fight the magnificence of the phrase, "Make America Great Again." "They can't stand the fact that this Administration  has done more than virtually any other Administration in its first two years," he continued, "They are truly the ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!" "The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." Orwell "1984" Donald Trump is up to his old, untruthful campaign slogans once again. His attack on America'

Confession of a   Social Climber Before I cash in my chips and curl up my toes, I need to confess to a terrible crime. For more than 86 years I have been a terrible liar about an important moment in of my life. As everyone who knows me is aware, I have always said my home town was Fort Benton. But, I hope everyone will find a way to forgive me for that terrible fib. I admit I was a social climber from birth. I wanted the world to know I was from a large city. When I was born, my parents and and older brother lived in the beautiful town of Virgelle, Montana. We also had a farm across the river from Virgelle and south about five miles on top of the river breaks. We lived there for about three years and then moved back to the farm. So, realistically, my home town is Virgelle. My family lived there  before we lived in Fort Benton.  When I started school, we moved into a home in that beautiful, big, bustling metropolis of Fort Benton, where I was educated. I was so happy and just knew I wou
