For the most part, I am at a loss for words while our country falls further into the abyss of a dysTrumpian idiocracy.
One question is on my mind though. Has even ONE GOP member of Congress -- House or Senate -- said or tweeted, "Black Lives Matter." Has ONE? Just ONE? Even ONE? Any SINGLE ONE?!?! More than ONE?
Also, I was APPALLED when Trump recently turned active duty US Military into his secret police force to attack American citizens who had gathered to protest peacefully so that he could stroll across the street for a bizarre photo op with a Bible -- a book he does not read, a book he has never read. Later, photographs surfaced of he and the Third Lady in a church, and the church was as EMPTY as their faith.
Finally, I drove through Richmond, VA, today, and I took photos of repulsive monuments that have lined the city's Monument Avenue for years -- and just like Nikki Haley said about the Confederate flag in George, "it should have never been there," it is high time that these statues come down. Fortunately, the Governor has announced that the statue of Robert E. Lee will come down soon, and I suspect the others will come down soon after that.
Just FYI: In Richmond, I saw one person with a sign that read, "Bye FeLEEcia."
Robert E Lee: | Jefferson Davis: |
Stonewall Jackson: | JEB Stuart: |
