T’he War escalates; the chasm deepens! With each passing day the battle intensifies …. between legitimate news coverage and fake ‘news’ sources, spawning huge casualties. The Truth is being eviscerated! There is a significant difference between opinion pieces, and ‘stories’ told knowingly with lies, malice and the intent to incite violence. Political discourse can be and often is coarse and inflammatory. Our present political climate is poisonous and malignant. The current president is the most consistently untruthful and divisive ever! He spews outright lies about nearly every single issue that confronts us. People want to believe their president and elected officials in charge of government; we want to believe that they have the good of our union and democracy at heart. The majority of Americans want to see the DOJ investigation continue to its full conclusion, and many of us are clamoring for Impeachment. Each day brings us closer to the constitutional crises that is hurtling toward us like a spinning comet.
At Trump’s rally in Tampa on 7/31 , Trump incited his angry-mob to bitterly bellow at journalists, his enemies. It was UGLY and Scary! Did you notice attendees wearing “Q” t-shirts and holding placards stating: “We Are Q”, which stands for QAnon, whose advocates are extreme right-wing conspiracy theorists, who push insane stories like Pizzagate, where Hillary and Podesta were running a child-sex-ring, from the basement of a D.C. pizza parlor. Q is anonymous, on the web, and “claims to have high-level government clearance and access to insider information”. The avid followers, called the army, react with fervor attacking the new targets, like accusing Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks as pedophiles. The ‘army’ seems like “Deplorable on bath salts”. The latest is: “Q is really John F. Kennedy Jr, who faked his own death 20 years ago”. Lives are ruined, people act on these stories, like the man with a gun, who was arrested in D.C., in 2016, when he showed up to deliver justice at Comet Pizza. Alex Jones, INFOWARS hate-talk, radio-show host and conspiracy theorist, is now returning suit in a defamation trial, brought by the parents of murdered Sandy Hook children, because Jones has claimed vehemently for years that IT WAS ALL A HOAX, and several of the parents have had to relocate amidst death threats. SAD! ‘BREAKING HATE’ is a MSNBC television documentary, scheduled for Sunday, Aug 12 at 9 p.m. EST. Hate on the Rise in America. Let’s tune in.
