Late 2020 News

 

 

Michael Cohen has a new book calling Trump a liar, a cheater, a racist, a con-man, an adulterer, and his movement is similar to a cult. These developments are not new. What is new is that an increasing number of former colleagues of Trump breaking their silent to expose Trump including his administration. Cohen pleaded guilty for his criminal activities. He is out of prison now and is under house arrest. Trump's own relative, Mary Trump, has criticized Trump's actions too. Cohen said that he witnessed Trump use racial slurs tons of times. I believe Cohen, because Trump has used racial slurs on tape describing the coronavirus, Elizabeth Warren, and other people. There is no question that the Trump administration is one of the most corrupt administrations in American history. We have the information, we know the facts, and the one act to end this situation is to vote Trump out of office on November 2020. It is what it is. We live in very vital times. Now, almost 190,000 Americans have passed away from the coronavirus. Over 27 million people in the world have the virus. We see increased infection rates in Spain, England, and other places of the world. We have less than 60 days before the 2020 Presidential Election is over. Time is going extremely fast. I remember January 2020 like it was yesterday. 2020 will go down as one of the most important years in human history. It is just like 1968 with protests, rebellions, rallies, and increased political polarization. Likewise, there is always a remnant of people who desire jsutice and righteousness. Since 1990, American billionaires have increased their wealth by 1,130 percent. There is more than 200 times greater than the median American household. That is why the current system isn't equitable. Jeff Bezos is a very rich. He earns $13 billion in one day. That is why change is necessary during these times.

 

There are a lot of information that I know now that I didn't know before. A long time ago, my maternal ancestors came from Southampton County, Virginia.  One daughter of Zilphy Claud was Sarah Claud. Sarah Claud was born in slavery at the plantation until later onward when she experienced freedom. Sarah Claud lived form 1842 to 1892. She married a freeman named Tom Hill (1838-1915). They had many children like Adaline Hill, etc. Sarah Claud was my 4th great grandmother. Adeline Hill was my 4th great aunt Adeline married a man named John Henry Williams (1857-1921). Their children were part of the Williams family like Edward, James Edward, Peter Percy, Annie B, Pattie, Mary Lee, Bessie, Addie Mae, Joseph, and Norman Starr. Peter Percy Williams (1880-1949) or my 1st cousin married Hattie E. Joyner (1881-1959). One of their children was Theodore Lewis Williams (1906-1993). 

Theodore Lewis Williams married a woman named Ethel Lena Gilliam. Their children lived in Portsmouth, Chesapeake, and across America. Their children are James Lewis Williams, Fred Williams, Douglas Williams (his daughter is April Williams or my 4th cousin. She was born in 1976), Doretha Grinnard, Ethel Williams, Sadie Williams, Katie Williams Flythe, Brenda Y. Williams, Marvin Williams, John Herbert Williams, and Vivian Williams. These men and women are my 3rd cousins. Marvin Williams married Pauline Joyner on 1976 at Emporia, Virginia. Many people from Southampton County migrated into Suffolk, Chesapeake, Portsmouth, and all over America.

 

People are talking about the debate between Candace Owens and Cardi B. One person supports Biden (who is Cardi B), and another person supports Trump (who is Cancace Owens). The truth is that both of them are wrong for different reasons. Cardi B is wrong for calling black women cockroaches, using the n word to describe black people, and admitting that she does some things to innocent people that are inappropriate and wrong.  Candace Owens has a whole history of hypocrisy, making anti-black statements, and supporting a sexist plus racist Donald Trump. How any anyone be for black people and support Trump. Trump has made it clear that he compared protesters to thugs, he doesn't want a peaceful protest in games, he denies the existence of systematic racism, and he uses vulgar language against people with whom he disagrees with. Owens said that black American culture is trash, which is lie. Owens said that black people act like trained "chimpanzees" when a black person is murdered by a white person. She is the one who glamorizes white racist theft and genocide of Native Americans centuries ago. Candace Owens called Native Americans cannibals until white people brought monotheism and morality to him. That rhetoric is totally racist. She omits the treaties being broken against Native Americans and the suffering of the Native Americans at the hands of European imperialists. 

You can google all of this information too. Owens (who mentioned that the left hates America which is a lie) said that Trump is the savior of Western civilization with Trump allowing massive chaos in America. Owens even denied the existence of the Southern Strategy which has been proven by many historians. So, her self-hatred is real. She is another Jesse Lee Peterson and a far right extremist. Therefore, Biden is not the perfect man, and I won't sugarcoat his moderate views (which I have some disagreements with). Yet, only one person will be President in 2021. It's either Trump or Biden. Biden's cabinet and advsiors are much more progressive than he is. I rather vote for the moderate that can be pushed to be more progressive than a reactionary who wants to ruin democratic institutions.
