Protest Speech- Flag Day, June 14, 2025
am the kind of patriot that is willing to lay down my life, if need be, to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. And to do that effectively, one must know and understand what lies therein. Because you don’t get to pick and choose the parts you like without bothering to understand their intent.

What an interesting point:

"The most eye-opening part was learning that the problem isn’t necessarily that billionaires are breaking the law or even paying lower rates on their taxable income. The issue is that our entire tax system is designed around taxing work rather than wealth."

In my examination of where politics is today vs. where the founders wanted and intended it to remain, I have determined that there are several steps needed to correct our course as a Republic. These are based on my reading of The Constitution of the United States, my understanding of its language and the commentary found in Federalist 51 written by James Madison.

Agism is real

Have you ever experienced agism? I have. I am a 56-year-old woman who finds herself unemployed and in need of work. I don’t subscribe to the implication that people just don’t want to work. We do want to work. The problem is that companies don’t want to pay for experience. They want…

Have you ever experienced agism? I have. I am a 56-year-old woman who finds herself unemployed and in need of work. I don’t subscribe to the implication that people just don’t want to work. We do want to work. The problem is that companies don’t want to pay for experience. They want to hire younger people who can potentially be at the company longer, are more up to date on technology, will accept lower offers etc.

We are here to discuss what’s best for our country. Let me emphasize OUR Country. We are all different from one another in a variety of ways. But we all share some common values. Family, Freedom, fighting for what’s best for our children, and Patriotism. We want the same things. A…

We are here to discuss what’s best for our country. Let me emphasize OUR Country. We are all different from one another in a variety of ways. But we all share some common values. Family, Freedom, fighting for what’s best for our children, and Patriotism. We want the same things. A roof over our heads, food on our tables, clothes on our backs, the means to support ourselves and our families and to provide a better life for our children than what we had.

Critical Thinking in Politics: Protecting yourself from Manipulative Language.
It amazes me how many people are incapable of broadening their views to see the big picture. It may just not occur to them to do so. There are many politicians and pundits out there that manipulate American English to alter the way people understand it. I remember in school when I was taught that there are many words that have more than one meaning and that to find the meaning behind the word, you must consider the context.

As you can tell from my blog title, we likely have little in common, but this piece is for Trump voters who are now seeing a lot that his second term Administration is doing, and you are not liking what you see. First, I want to say I’m sorry that things are not working out like you thought they would. You chose to support a man you thought had your best interests at heart.

The Constitutional Crisis: Restoring Checks and Balances
The GOP has been trying to dismantle the very foundation of our Republic for decades. They are closer now than ever before thanks to the efforts of Senator Mitch McConnell and Donald J Trump. And they have written it all down in the Project 2025 document, aka Agenda 47. When Donald Trump announced he was running for president in 2016, he made no effort to hide that he supported this agenda.
