On the Verge of a Trump 2nd Impeachment.

 

 

As we are not surprised, Trump refused to take responsibility for the coup attempt against the U.S. Capitol. Trump still has promoted the big lie that the 2020 election was rigged. On January 6, 2020, Trump said that he wanted his mob to fight against the certification of Biden being the winner of the 2020. Later, terrorists harmed people, used vandalism, and many of these criminals have been arrested. Today, the FBI has warned Americans that these far right terrorists could make armed marches in the state capitols of all 50 states including the U.S. Capitol. One warning was about how these extremists want to surround the Capitol building with 4,000 armed folks. That is why D.C. is heavily protected now. National Guard troops are so numerous in Washington D.C. now, that many of them are sleeping in the Capitol building as a means to take a rest. 8 feet steel fences are all over the Capitol building. By inauguration, there will be thousands of more National Guard troops in the Capitol area. The fruit of this crisis is how many banks refuse to do business with Trump, Trump's businesses have seen a fallout, and many extremists including Trump are banned from Twitter. The followers of Trump have been explicit in promoting insurrection against America. Pipe bombs being found at the RNC and DNC headquarters with timers is the reason among others why the FBI is looking at sedition and conspiracy charges against the terrorists. That is why those, who love freedom, have to be clear that democracy will be protected.

 

People like Lindsay Graham calling for unity are hypocritical. America experienced an attempted coup d'etat, and Trump incited insurrection against us Americans. Real unity is not sugarcoating the threat that Trump poses to America. Real unity is not about coddling extremist rhetoric or capitulating to the evil status quo. Trump must be impeached and removed from office. He should be legally barred from holding any office ever again. Unity without justice and accountability is a false kind of unity. Real unity is about making sure that justice for all is more than just words but enacted via policies in making society better. That is why House members have sent a resolution to call for some Congress people to be removed from office (for inciting violence and agreeing with denying democratic election results). We know that many black U.S. Capitol police, black Congresspeople, and many others were victims of racial epithets, threats, and other evils by white supremacist terrorists. Texas Democratic State Representatives have called for an investigation of Texas Attorney Ken Paxton for inciting the crowd in D.C. Rudy Giuliani could lose his NY bar license over his comments. The events on January 6, 2021 was done by white racist terrorists.


 

Keri Hilson made the remark that she is concerned about free speech being censorship. I understand her concern (as free speech should be promoted and historically many folks' First Amendment rights have been violated), but Twitter is a private entity with a policy statement. Trump violated Twitter's policies constantly with his words and bigotry. Therefore, his account was banned permanently. The First Amendment stated that Congress can't make a law to abridge free speech. This doesn't apply to libel, slander, incitement of violence, etc. Also, Trump used a private corporation, and his words violated that corporation's policies. I don't believe in authoritarian censorship, but with free speech comes consequences. The hip hop artist Azelea Banks crossed the line by calling Ihan Omar a slur and said other self hating comments. Azelea Banks (who loves to sacrifice chickens) is known for promoting bleach creams, cursing out Skai Jackson when she was a teen, and promoting self hating rhetoric like admitting that she is in love with white privilege. Banks also disrespected and body shamed the hip hop artist from Houston named Megan Thee Stallion. So, Banks is a person who is an artist with massive anti-black self hatred.

 

Today, Democrats have sent forward the article of impeachment against Donald Trump for agitation for insurrection against the Untied States of America. There were warnings made by the FBI and others about terrorists would invade the Capitol. Trump for months has attacked the integrity of the election even after Biden rightfully won the Presidency. Trump's rhetoric contributed to this crisis. Trump for years have said when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Trump said that he wanted the people to go into the Capitol to try to stop the certification of the election results. He called Neo-Nazis and neo-Confederates "fine people." The mob was agitated by Trump. Trump is not the only one responsible for this. His enablers from Cruz, Hawley, and others who have agreed with Trump and supported the far right extremists. The disgrace is that polls show that the majority of Republicans believe in the lie that there was widespread voting fraud during the 2020 election. The thugs who terrorized people on January 6, 2021 deserve prison. Gabriel Sterling has warned people that Trump's reprehensible language will cause people to be killed, and unfortunately this happened. Cruz, Hawley, and others should resign.

 

Back five years ago, if you would have told me that I have distant cousins living in Massachusetts today, then I wouldn't believe you. Yet, now with new research in 2021, I found out that many of my distant cousins do in fact live in Brockton, Massachusetts (and in other places of MA) which is south of Boston. I'm from Virginia obviously. Before showing who they are, it is time to show a story first. Long ago, by the end of the U.S. Civil War, Millie Turner had a relationship with a young man named Morefield Hurst. Morefield's father was a cooper by trade. Millie Turner lived on areas where the Nottoway Native Americans lived at. Morefield Hurst and Millie Turner (my 4th great grandparents) had many children. Many of their names are Susanna Hurst-Turner, Thomas Hurst, Josephine T. Hurst (1868-1929), etc. Josephine T. Hurst lived in Virginia (and later in North Carolina), and she was my 3rd great grand aunt. Josephine T. Hurst married Kenneth Sykes at Southampton County, Virginia on December 5, 1888. They had many sons and daughters. One of their daughters was a woman named Minne Eva Sykes (1906-1980). Minnie Eva Sykes was my 1st cousin. She was born in Virginia. She married Harry Cecil McPherson Sr. (1903-1982) on June 21, 1923 at Norfolk, Virginia. Their children are: James Albert McPherson (1925-2005), Lelia McPherson (1926-1928), Cecelia Elaine McPherson (b. 1927), Harry Cecil McPherson Jr. (1929-2000), Walter Ardonis McPherson (b. 1930), Virginia Ruth McPherson (b.1933), and Anne Levorn McPherson (1935-1992). Minne Eva Sykes had a divorce with Harry Cecil McPherson on April 25, 1950 at Portsmouth, Virginia. Minnie Eva Sykes married George Washington Baily (1897-?) on September 2, 1950 at Norfolk, Virginia. My 2nd cousin Walter Adroinis McPherson (b. 1930) is the son of Harry Cecil McPherson Sr. and Minnie Eva Sykes. Walter married Martha Marie Tabb on September 26, 1948 at Norfolk, Virginia. They had the following children (who are my 3rd cousins): Darlene Regeaner McPherson (b. 1949), Cynthia Therese Muhammad (b. 1950), Laurel Donnette McPherson Johnson (b. 1952), Walter Adonis McPherson (b. 1953), Marthell McPherson Chance (b. 1954), Aquilla Rayeen McPherson Crosby (b. 195), Shavell McPherson Rayburn (b. 1958), Stryone Prado McPherson Sr. (1959-2006), Rodney F. McPherson (b. 1965). Cynthia Therese Muhammad was born on July 22, 1950 at Norfolk. Later, Cynthia, and the rest of her brothers and sisters moved into Brockton, Massachusetts when they were children. Cynthia Therese Muhammad married Lawrence Kareem Muhammad (b. 1950), and one of their children is my 4th cousin named Sharif A. Muhammad. Sharif A. Muhammad (who lives in Massachusetts now in 2021) is married to Jennifer Clerkin (b. 1978), and the couple have children too. My 4th cousin Taneekah Marie Freeman (b. 1976) is the daughter of my 3rd cousin Marthell Marie McPherson (b. 1954). My 4th cousin Shaneek Donnette Johnson (b. 1977) is married to a man whose last name is Sudler, and her mother is my 3rd cousin Laurel Donnette McPherson Johnson (b. 1952). Styrone P. McPherson Jr. is my 4th cousin whose father is the late Styrone Prado McPherson Sr. (1959-2006).
