AMEN! AMEN? AMEN - MAYBE

  Well hallelujah and amen! A committee of brave men and women, most especially Liz Cheney, who has doubled down on her doing the right thing in the face of nasty opposition and a possible cost to her political career. Putting her money where her mouth is, answering to her conscience rather than taking that easy long, evil slope of vicious intent adopted by the majority of the current GOP. 

Her words were fierce, her determination to seek accountability and consequence, the need to answer to the people rather than to Trump, buoyed by a hard-working committee, - a much better example or role model for the younger generation to follow -and in fact the older generations as well. A toast to their courage, the dramatic ending of a voice vote confirming for all time the issuing of a subpoena to Trump, a bang of the gavel and over and done.

So, amen to that, but it is far from over and done. The subpoena has to be responded to. Either Trump puts up or shuts up. Either way, he comes out dripping sweat and evil dark, emanations from his mostly dead soul. Now is his time in the sun, where his tale is to be told, in public forum - under oath. Oh yes, under oath. A real deal breaker, that. 

In addition, it is now upon the government institutions to take correct steps, to follow up with what they have been given, a man so enmeshed in his criminal, treasonous behavior, deeds and words, that whatever happens, he will replace Benedict Arnold as the synonym and picture when defining treason to this nation.

If our presumed leaders, G-d help us, do not act, well, the future is not bright. Morals and conscience are taking a far distanced role, negligible actually. We are raising a generation of young fanatics and bigots who know naught of what they speak, and instead ape the horrors of their most definitely not wiser elders and aim to go one better. The Young Republicans in a college endorse a tweet or posting by Kanye West, the now even worse Ye, in his rabid statement of "death con 3 -Death to the Jews." 

The President, a woman of course, had the decency, the guts, to resign in protest. However, the vitriol of increased, revived old canards of hate bode ill for our, my, future. Why is it that hatred of Jews must resurface every damned time there is a crisis somewhere, every time some wannabe dictator seeks an issue where there is none.

How is it, why is it, that even the targets of hate do not see their way clear to the future and instead ally themselves, shamefully futilely with those who will, at the 'right' time, throw them under the wheels, then back up and do it all over again. Using them as proof of the inherent nastiness, subhuman traits of a particular group.

Once again, Jews and Blacks must walk hand in hand rather than oppose each other. There is no future in allying oneself with those who seek your extinction or 'proper' place in society, meaning among the dregs, the abused, the targets and hapless, hopeless victims of murderous intent and hate. It is in the blindness of those who sell their souls for 'the Vote', for 'control', that society loses its way, rolls over and plays dead, too well. In the interim and for the foreseeable future if indeed there be one, those who poison it, terminate its vitality and viability and the 'black hats' win. Perhaps this time forever.

This is what we must oppose. This is what we must defend against. This is what that committee is fighting for. This is what the Grahams, the Greenes, the Trumps, the Walkers, the Wests, on and on, stand for, forever, sickening, the pathetic cowards who refused to back up their own accusatory true words of Jan. 6, who have forgotten their fear of that rampaging mob out for blood. Theirs. Sent by that man they now fear and support. Buying so deeply into him and his corruption, his evilness of heart and soul, hook, line and sinker. Now they must all be hoisted by their own petard. Pay the well-deserved consequences, be held accountable. Pay the cost of their faithlessness and weakness.

Amen? Yes, a good hearty loud shouted one, but with a bit held back. That bit must be retained until the cycle is complete. Then, only then, might we have hope to return to sanity, Trump and the Trumpian Movement, having been an aberration, never to be repeated. Lesson learned. Internalized. 

One hopes. We all must hope. We all must support those who would see us back on the right highway to the future. Then, a full, complete, deeply felt and learned-AMEN!!
