The invasion of the US

While it may not seem like it, as there are no foreign troops on the ground, don’t be fooled. The US has most assuredly been invaded by a foreign entity.
It's an invasion of our psyche, and of the principles that made this country so great. It’s an attack on our trusted institutions, casting doubt on what is real and what is contrived.
The truth is being manipulated, such that fact has become fiction, and fiction becomes fact, all designed to bring to light the underlying hatred and bigotry, which has existed in the US since our inception, dividing us even further and leading us into chaos.
Even our elected officials (knowingly or not), refuse to acknowledge it, and are fomenting these seeds of bigotry and distrust meant only to destroy the United States.
How did the we let this happen? How have so many become blind to it? Have our elected officials been so corrupted by money and power they don't care? (I know our president has.) Has racism and religious intolerance driven us to the point where reason has been discarded, and we can no longer accept anything that is different? (I think we have.)
The sad fact is there is so much misinformation out there, there is no way to separate fact from fiction anymore. Everything can be doctored and manipulated to present any point of view.
I don't have any answers (well actually I have a few, but.......). What I do know, is you can't believe anything you read or hear anymore, whether it be from the right, the left, or even the [so called] mainstream media. If I haven't seen it with my own eyes, it's probably been doctored or manipulated somehow, and didn't really happen the way it may appear.
You may not want to call it an invasion, but whatever you may choose to call what's happening in the US today, it's a sad day for democracy in the US, and I feel sorry for the younger generation, who will have to deal with the consequences.
And like I said in a previous poststay vigilant, and be prepared!

Vaccine Mandates, what are they good for?

Not much, that's for sure! Simply showing evidence of receiving a Covid-19 vaccine (whether fake or not), does not mean you are protected from getting Covid-19, nor spreading it, if infected. We are all different, and too many of us, i.e. people who are immunocompromised/ immunosupressed, the elderly, or others for various reasons, do not [cannot] mount an immune response as good as younger and healthier individuals. What is evidence of immunity is a quantitative antibody test showing you have developed antibodies, and to what degree, either from natural immunity or the vaccine.  That is what we should be testing for. That is what is important. But for too long, many, i.e. the FDA, doctors, and other health experts discouraged people (and still are) from getting antibody tests, because there was little knowledge about what level of antibodies are needed to impart immunity to the virus. That of course is true, to some extent, but how can we ever find out [learn] the answer to that q

History IS repeating itself

I didn't grow up during the rise and fall of Hitler and Nazi Germany, so for me to claim it feels like those are the times we are living in now, must be taken with a grain of salt. But I have seen enough movies, and read enough history to know, if the times we're living in now are not akin to the rise of a Nazism and Facism in Europe in the 1930's and 1940's, then we're not far off. If you can't see the parallels with Nazi Germany, then you must be living in a different country than me. Republicans and other right wing extremists will stop at nothing to subvert the will of the majority, forcing their beliefs, that they are the superior race and have been appointed by God, to impose their will on America, while they blame all our problems on immigrants, blacks and Jews. As I speak, Mitch McConnell, and his minions are raising roadblocks to all legislation designed to help average Americans under the guise of fiscal responsibility. They condone violent and verba

Open letter to all Democrats

Stop the nonsense! Continuing to go after Trump, without any hope of getting a conviction, does nothing more than provide Republicans with an obstructionist dialogue (now that they have come up with the unconstitutional talking point) in addition to giving Trump much needed publicity, when we should be ignoring him. It's the pure definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result! Instead Democrats need to be laser focused on what is important to all Americans, i.e. healthcare, Social Security and Medicare, infrastructure reform, the Covid-19 vaccine rollout, to name just a few. And when you do talk about Trump, simply steer the conversation as to how the Trump administration botched everything, how Trump is responsible for the deaths of 400,000+ Americans, due to his inaction and the down playing of the pandemic, plus the deaths of 2 Capitol policeman during the insurrection Trump provoked and incited on January 6, 2021.
