If anyone would ask me what the greatest change in our nation’s government has been since the end of WWII, I would have an immediate response; America has moved closer to fascism and democracy has slowly been pushed to the side. Fascist regimes exist in a heavy cloud of secrecy. Every day we are told by our elected officials that the facts about issues important to all Americans cannot be revealed because ‘national security’ is involved. I call ‘bullshit.’
Our current government rules over us; they fail to serve the people. Congressmen and Senators are elected to represent the people. They should not be allowed to hide the truth from the American people; this is our country. We have the right to know whether or not our elected officials are crooks.
It appears that those who are in Washington today believe more in ‘honor among thieves’ than caring for the men and women who elected them.
There is no doubt that the Trump administration is the most corrupt in history. During the 2016 campaign many members of Trump’s inner circle colluded with Russian agents to damage Hillary Clinton and aid Trump’s ambition to become the President of the United States. One of these efforts was conducted by Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner. We know that he had at least four meetings with high-level Russian agents. One of those meetings was an attempt to establish a ‘back channel’ between the Trump administration and the Kremlin in the Seychelles Islands.
A new report confirms that this effort continued into 2017. Erik Prince, the former head of ‘Blackwater,’ and brother of Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, continued that effort.
This back channel would allow Trump and Putin to discuss the future of a New World Order. These discussions would be held in complete secrecy not only from the American people, but also from congress. Fascism has arrived in the United States; it is wearing a cross and waving the flag.
If you join me in the belief that our nation is worth saving please vote on November 6th. Trump’s party has approved of his fascist agenda, and we can stop it by returning control of congress to Democrats. Our national nightmare can end before Thanksgiving.
