Today, I have been following several headlines concerning freedom of the press and Presidential appointments. Oh, how to place these developments! To devote time and energy to what seems obvious, is, well, so obvious. And yet to many, I realize things may not be so obvious.
Then, too, there is the matter of repetition. And yet, certain things do need to be repeated!
At the same time, it is a premise of this current blog that the Presidency was stolen in 2016.* If we believe that America is a country so far above and beyond all other countries as to be practically inhabited by angels, we will have a hard time accepting the fact that such a thing could happen.
If we believe, however, that Americans are, after all, only human and subject to the same temptations as most every other person, if given the same power and opportunity, we can begin to believe that something terribly wrong could have occurred. Readers here already know about the size of the vote suppression which occurred then. And regular readers have seen the evidence that D. Trump did not win either the popular vote; or the Electoral College -- legitimately.
If wealthy people could help Our Military Leader (OML) to an ill-gotten victory, it is not such a stretch to imagine that the United States is seriously threatened by a fascist take-over, or that perhaps such a take-over may have already occurred in essence.
Truth can be said to be in the eye of the beholder. The reality is that Truth exists as an objective entity, no matter how many or how few people see it.
