Rand Paul is shown as one of the worst Senators in American history. Paul said that he doesn't want a $2,000 stimulus plan, because he said that it's equivalent to socialism. Rand Paul also said that Republicans who go along with this plan are allying with what he calls, "socialist Democrats." He is wrong on all levels. We have an unique situation here. Businesses are dying, people are starving, people are dying, and there is an increase of people signing up for unemployment benefits. This reality doesn't merit some free market solution. There has to be bold solutions to end this tragedy in America. Rand Paul lied and said that the 2,000 dollars are free money. This money isn't free. People bled and sacrificed for this money. People have lived on this Earth experienced undeniable pain, and one of the words of the Preamble to the Constitution is to promote justice and advance the general welfare. Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution gives Congress the right to hand taxes and give money to help the American people. $2,000 stimulus checks will help millions of Americans. Many Republicans are more concerned with portfolios and Wall Street interests than all of the American people. If Rand Paul was so opposed to socialism, he should give up his free health care and ban socialism for the rich in tax breaks and records funds to corporate rich interests. He won't do it, because he's a hypocrite. Rand Paul hypocritically claims to love the Constitution but once supported Roy Moore. Moore wants a religious test in office which is illegal as Article VI of the Constitution forbids it. Rand Paul blocked funding for a 9/11 victims bill, but he signed onto Trump's large policy of tax cuts for the wealthy. Trump recently wants to steal the election, but he will fail. Trump wants $2,000 checks, but he never advocated for this plan before. Democrats want it done. McConnell only made this bill because of the Georgia Senate races.
This is a story that I never revealed here before. Alysia Nicole Harris is a well known American poet and performer. She was born in California and has lived in Virginia plus Atlanta. She loves the art of spoken word poetry especially. Traveling constantly, she has performed spoken word poetry in America, South Africa, the UK, Canada, and Slovakia, including other locations. She loves to write, received awards, and is an editor. She is also an expert on language and culture. Being a professed Christian, she said that you don't have to be perfect to be a believer in the Christian religion. Recently, I found out that we are 3rd cousins as we share the same common ancestor of Rev. James Thompson Claud (or my 3rd great grandfather. He was a born a slave and later married Susanna Field Hurst-Turner). Alysia was raised in Alexandria, Virginia, and she was born in California. The lesson here is that many people that you are related to are people from across the world.
Trump is facing his last days in office. He has massive paranoia. We have many Trump allies trying to leave the country. Pence is hiding from him. That is why Trump is criticizing even his great supporters like Mark Meadows, Pence, Cipilione, Pompeo, and others. Trump is narcissistic, and he refuses to realize that the President is not a king. There are laws and regulations that don't make the President to have massive powers. Trump has criticized Mitch McConnell, because McConnell said to Congress that Biden is the next President. Giuliani said that Sidney Powell isn't representative of Trump, but Trump is open to Powell's lies about the election. The truth is that by January 6, 2020, the Electoral College results will be confirmed, and by January 20, 2020, the inauguration will commence. The majority of American voters decided that Trump will be a one term President, and that is a good thing. Right now, many voting companies are threatening to sue far right wing media with legal actions for their false claims over the election of 2020. Newsmax, OAN, FOX News, and others are given warnings that they could experience a defamation lawsuit. They also want to sue possibly Flynn and Sidney Powell. Flynn is the traitor who wants martial law to exist in order to steal the American election results. That is why Dobbs and people of FOX retracted many of their statements about Biden because of threats of lawsuits. The lawyers for Smartmatic and Dominion have great experience. Defamation lawsuits are expensive and take a long time. Yet, they aren't impossible to get a conviction of.
Happy Hanukkah. For those who don't know what Hanukkah is all about, it is the celebration of the recovery of Jerusalem and the re-dedication of the 2nd Temple at the start of the Maccabees revolt against the Seleucid Empire (which existed after the death of Alexander the Great). The First Temple was destroyed by the Babylonians. The 2nd Temple was created during the days of Cyrus (of the Medo-Persian empire). The holiday starts on the 25th day of Kislev. The event of Hanukkah celebrates Jewish freedom fighters against imperialists. The menorah being lightened up every day and other ceremonies represent a powerful experience of remembrance. There is a new movie coming out about Fred Hampton called Judas and the Black Messiah. The term of Judas and the Black Messiah is used as a title for a reason. The FBI had a document relating to COINTELPRO that didn't want a what they called a "Black Messiah" to galvanize and motivate change in the black community. Fred Hampton was only in his early 20s when he passed away. Yet, Fred Hampton was an organizer, a revolutionary, a socialist, and united people among many backgrounds to stand up against oppression. The movie showed his heroic legacy and the informant to who worked with the powers that be that contributed to his assassination. The Chicago police murdered Fred Hampton and Mark Clark in cold blood on December 1969. We know the informant to be O'Neal. Fred Hampton was the Chairman of the Illinois Black Panther Party with his headquarters in Chicago. The movie stars Daniel Kaluuya and LaKeith Stanfield who are actors of the new generation. Regardless, we certainly send great respect to our ancestor Brother Fred Hampton.
Days ago was the Birthday of a late legend. She was the fastest woman sprinter in human history. She is Sister Florence Griffith Joyner or Flo Jo. She was born in Los Angeles, California. She lived in Littlerock, California too. Later, she lived in Watts of LA. Since she was a young girl, she performed in track and field. She went into the Sugar Ray Robinson Organization to run track meets. She won the Jesse Owens National Youth Games 2 years in a row, at the ages of 14 and 15. She ran track at Jordan High School in Los Angeles too. She loved fashion. That is why she wore long nails and unique clothing when she was involved in athletics. Long jump was a sport that Flo Jo did too. Bob Kersee trained her in track and filed when Griffith attended the California State University at Northridge. Griffith earned her degree of bachelor's in psychology from UCLA. She ran in many races. She was 4th in the 200m back in the World Championship in 1983. She had a silver medal in the 1984 Summer Olympics at LA. Her husband is Al Joyner (the Olympic triple jump champion of 1984 and in 1987). In 1987, Flo Jo improved her track and field skills. By 1988, she won 3 gold medals in the 100m, 200m, and the 4 X 100 m relay. She won silver in the 4 x 400m relay at Seoul. Griffith later was on TV shows, helped to design the uniforms for the Indiana Pacers NBA team in 1989, and was on the soap opera Santa Barbara in 1992 as Terry Holloway. As a lover of fashion, she wore a hooded speed staking body suit. She loved her husband and daughter Mary Ruth Joyner (who was born in 1990). She was in the USA Track and Field Hall of Fame in 1995. She passed away in 1998. As the best ever at what she has done, her legacy is always awe inspiring.
Rest in Power Sister Florence Griffith Joyner.
