For four and a half years we have listened to the masses tell us who was in hot water and going to jail and who was going to ride off in the sunset without a worry in this world. 

Is this fair to the American people?  No.  The people are always held at a higher standard while those on the Hill can literally get a way with murder.  and they have.  

What has happened to the United States that allows someone to stay in power and refuse too cooperate with laws on the books, including those that have been on the books for over a hundred years? Trump never should have stayed as President. 

Why does the Hill get very special treatment when we have black men and women sitting in jails across the US who have been proved innocent and they are not getting their Due Process? 

Why do we have two standards of treatment?  One for the Hill and one for the rest of us.  The Constitution says everyone is treated the same in law.  

So what happen to change this? 

Don McGahn proved that truth-tellers can be found and his testimony confirms Trump wielded the power of his office with little regard for truth, democracy, impartiality or the law.

But the thing was during all of this we didn't have both parties demanding the truth, crying foul, and demanding an arrest.

So instead the laws put in place to protect the US from harm had failed us.  

and no one on the Hill has spoken about fixing these issues so it doesn't happen again. 

Sure we need truth, but we also need our lawmakers to act like they really care about anyone coming in and hurting the US. We need for them to care about the Presidency too.   

We haven't seen that people.

Third: No one who works full time should have to live in poverty. Fourth: People should take responsibility for themselves and their families, but deserve help if they need it through no fault of their own. Fifth:  No one should have special privilege and power based on wealth or class.

30th Anniversary of the World Wide Web

Image
Today is the 30th Anniversary of the World Wide Web.  In 1989 the Internet was born, or hatched and our lives on this planet were forever changed.  I am not sure this is for the better.  I mean look at how many treat the Internet as though it were a life or death if they don't log in everyday. Plus many have started using the net for illegal purposes.  There are also the bullies, the pranksters that are getting out of hand.  But the Internet has done a lot of good too.
