No, they do not. In fact, I think that the 'everyone' referred to in yet another oh so brilliant statement by the crazed and violent Jim Jordan, are even less knowing, understanding or capable of rational thought than ever before. Jordan, whose face of violence during hearings, is one of the most powerful GOP members and ain't that a shame.
In fact, the current GOP has taken the express train on our decrepit train system and are fast delivering us into unexplored territory we had better avoid. From the economy to the very survival of a democratic United States, we are presently moving that train right off the tracks, faster and faster nearing its end. That is where we fall off, over the edge of our 'flat earth' for beyond lies only the unknown, monsters rife in those waiting waters.
It is that flat earth level of thinking, if thinking is even applicable here, that has brought us into this perilous once unthinkable situation. Ancient maps were notated "here be danger" at that point. Today's dwindling numbers of sane cartographers warn us of the peril fast approaching but we refuse to listen, to understand, the depth of those brooding waters, the dangers lurking just below the surface.
What we do not acknowledge is that our particular generation of monsters has already clambered out of those waters, impatient, eager to destroy, wreak havoc, to bring down a nation which has long represented hope for so many through many generations.
Their appetite for destruction, for amassing power and wealth in a panicked world of anomie, is endless, voracious in consumption, never sated. In fact, they co-opt our failing, struggling, train system, use it to destroy their opponents, using democracy to end democracy. Just as did their fascistic role model, Hitler, who then unleashed the dogs of war, saddled up the dreaded Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, upon a world which had ignored all the signposts along the way, just as we have done.
The unbalanced weight of their invading and hijacking forces is increasing the strain on our train, tilting it ever more steeply, ever closer and closer to actual turnover, not playing dead, but being dead. As for us, well, we simply stand here awaiting our fate rather than heeding the Biblical instruction to "gird our loins" in preparation for battle, and "fight, fight against the dying of the light".
Social and governmental breakdown as of September 30 when the government runs out of money.
Why? Because we have immoral criminals in seats of power as they blackmail the nation, hold it hostage with little room to maneuver.
As crazed individuals, not the least of whom is Trump, that contagious poison introduced into our political system, leading to insanity within the GOP. All leading to national division and an abyss awaiting us even as we stand on the crumbling edge. At the bottom awaits havoc and ruin.
" ...negative indication of House Republicans’ ability "- to do anything positive or redeeming or containing within a modicum of relief and hope for returning sanity.
“...everyone knows” about the attorney general’s secret scheme to help President Joe Biden’s son..." — an initiative that appears to only exist in Republicans’ imaginations, not one iota of proof to support, only ugliness and contempt and selfishness as they violate their very oaths to serve and defend this nation. They themselves are the enemy.
Ramaswamy rejects birthright citizenship but not his, as he did exactly that!
" ...unprecedented territory, not only of a former president indicted, but him running for president for keeping himself out of prison, that’s the backdrop of the election. That’s scary.” 90 indictments in 4 states and this can be President again!!!! To totally bring an end to democracy as we instead morph into a pathetic imitation of what we once were.??!!!
And the cherry on top, truly representative of the GOP today, by Hawley he who supported the rebels and then ran from them, Cluck, cluck! Brilliance indeed - not. “Today is a good day to remember: Christianity is the faith, and America is the place slavery came to die.”
There is no way one or two or three individuals can combat this. It takes a village, a city, many cities and towns and farms -an entire nation. We need to understand the existential mud puddle we stand in even as yet another fierce storm approaches as electric wires fall into our mud puddle.
Together is the only way. In the same way, G-d willing, in which we are combating our Yitzy's cancer. It is the combined efforts, the togetherness that has buoyed us all. That is what we need to do as we combat the stage 4 cancer afflicting our nation right now. Via the togetherness, the massive support, unbelievable in its intensity and value, we pray for a positive outcome for Yitzy, a promising future.
But not unless we, the adults, act, promptly, do what we must, to ensure that our younger members of the population do indeed have a future awaiting them in a strong, moral, democratic America restored to its senses.
Together folks, together. In concerted, united, determined, knowledgeable effort.
Together.
Tomorrow. Today.
And together.
Only and always together.
Together, always together.
United for good.
Together.
Together.
We can heal the nation.
HEAL THE WORLD.
HEAL YITZY!
