The most unfortunate issue for Americans is the lack of integrity and the basics of journalism in our Mainstream Media. They are nothing but an arm of the progressives, for now.
Not a lot to say about this except the minority has the loudest voice with unlimited funding from billionaires wanting to turn our country left, far left. But, that won’t fit in our nation of patriots who, at the core, know when it doesn’t make sense or feel right, it most likely isn’t. All IMO.
“The particular U.S. factions who support the “woke” and similar philosophies may hold that their beliefs are well-grounded in solid reasoning. But many policies based on good intentions, which fit neatly onto bumper-stickers, have resulted in disaster as they were not fully examined for negative ramifications. Recent developments are illustrative.
...: who amongst you would not extend a helping hand to those escaping a foreign government’s oppression? Shouldn’t we as a society offer second chances to those who, for good reasons, violate our border, criminal theft, and voting laws? How can Americans be so heartless to restrict people’s actions when feeling estranged from their biological genders? And who can argue that a truly just society is not based on kindness?
When policy advocates concocted such grievances, ladled out ill-conceived public programs, and dumped them on a trusting society, they rained great misfortune on U.S. culture and taxpayers. The outcomes of what were sold as well-meaning policies mutated into a mishmash of madnesses and pure folly.
One of the most recent egregious examples cited, according to the General Accounting Office, occurred in FY 2025. Rampant fraud discovered in the Medicaid and Medicare programs in Minnesota, Ohio, California, and Maine has resulted in $186 billion (thus far) spent on “improper payments stolen from taxpayers.”...
In all of these cases, elected officials were unwilling to enforce laws which prohibited “paying someone who was ineligible for federal assistance.” ...
Another issue tearing at the fabric of the U.S. culture is the policy that boys, if they identify as female, should not only be allowed to participate in girls’ sports but have access to women’s locker rooms. This is seen as insanity by the vast majority of America. ...
In 2025, a California proposal penalized parents who did not affirm a child’s trans identity. But state law maintains until age 18, a child is not capable of understanding the effect of their reasoning and conduct. So, for lawmakers and parents to subject a child to either life-altering surgery or ruinous psychological damage because of their youngster’s immature feelings is despicable and malfeasance. ...
More warped governing sensibilities have emerged in the form of lax treatment for indicted felons. Cashless bail is now granted in some metropolitan areas for those arrested for certain felonies…felonies! And the accused are then deposited back on the streets where they often repeat the same crime, sometimes in the same day. ...
And of course, one cannot overlook the travesty of not requiring a government-issued ID to vote in U.S. elections. ... Everyone is aware of ID requirements to open bank accounts, receive welfare, buy alcohol, and receive driver’s licenses, but there is no necessity to ensure the integrity of elections?
... The borders were flung wide open under President Biden, illegals flooded the country, and in many states and municipalities authorities gave illegals with no citizenship verifications permission to enter our voting booths. ...”
Odious, narcissistic politicians routinely divert attention from all of these disastrous outcomes and attempt to refocus arguments only on perceived injustices. Recall that Obama’s Rahm Emanuel, who is weighing a presidential bid in 2028, infamously said “Never let a crisis go to waste.”
If officials who continue to promote these philosophies have their way, America will no longer be a nation of laws but a country where political expediency is the rule. If we do not stop the assault on and corrosion of our principles, we will no longer have a durable republic. ...”
