During this time, it is not about us saying we told you so. It is about acknowledging that we warned people that this would happen. For over 10 years, many of us have told people that Trump is a far-right extremist with a cold heart and a vicious mentality filled with greed, racism, extremism, division, hatred, xenophobia, and war mongering. Trump's use of social media to threaten to wipe out Iranian civilization is totally wicked, as such an act is threatening a war crime. The Geneva Convention bans threats of violence to attack civilian populations. There is absolutely no excuse for Trump to outline such horrendous rhetoric. This doesn't mean that the Iranian regime was completely holy. The Iranian regime executed dissidents for years and suppressed human rights. Yet, wiping out Iranian civilization will harm innocent Iranians who desire their rightful freedom from authoritarianism. There is no excuse for the Iranian war, constitutionally and morally. Destroying civilian infrastructure is a violation of international law. We should hope that Trump doesn't fulfill his plans. When you have people that I don't agree with on many issues (like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Candace Owens) saying that Trump is insane and must be sent out of office via the 25th Amendment, then you know that Trump has completely gone through the deep end. Tucker Carlson has criticized Trump on the Iran issue along with Alex Jones. Trump is completely wrong to threaten war crimes and genocide in Iran. Many Iranians have formed human chains around bridges and power plants to protest Trump's plans. This is why voting matters. If more people voting the right way, Trump would not be in office, and a black woman would be in office. This is bigger than Trump. Project 2025 and many MAGA leaders planned this agenda for years. Some breaking news is that Trump is delaying such an attack for 2 weeks and is looking at the Pakistan ceasefire proposal. Trump has backed down from threats of devastation in Iran.
Now, JD Vance is supporting Putin's ally, Viktor Orbán. Orban is a complete pro-MAGA extremist. Orban has harmed Hungary, and Hungary is the poorest nation in the E.U. Hungary is an example of how corrupt politicians have failed a nation. Orban's son-in-law is the richest person in Hungary because he gains corporate power in investments, etc. Vance has campaigned for Hungarian Prime Minister Orban in Budapest. Hungary is a mostly homogeneous nation, and America is the most heterogeneous nation in human history. Diversity is part of our strength as Americans, which also means our cultural diversity. Many MAGA people view America as solely a white Christian nation. The truth is that America is made up of people of all creeds, colors, and convictions. Many of the Framers were not Christians. Christians and non-Christians alike in America have establish great contributions to American society historically. I believe in Jesus Christ, but I won't use my religious views as an excuse to dehumanize people who don't subscribe to my spiritual beliefs.
As we get older, learning more wisdom remains a preeminent necessity. I learned a lot of things involving my family tree spanning many years. It has been since 2018 when I learned about my genealogy at a higher level. It has been a long journey, and the reality is that I uncovered many mysteries about my ancestry. I have learned that my paternal side came from Cape Charles, Virginia, and Halifax, North Carolina. I have also learned that my maternal side came from Southampton County, Virginia. I have written about my origins for years, and tons of people know of my works. I will continue to describe my family history in a myriad of unique ways. When I started this journey, I was in my thirties. Today, I am a few years away from being 50 years old. Yes, in a little more than 7 years into the future, I will be 50. That feels surreal to me, because in 2001, I was 18 years old. Time flies. It is also important to know one lesson in life. That lesson is that everything in life won't be perfect, but we should seek improvement as time goes on. That means that self-control, problem solving, curiosity, research, building friendships or positive relationships with human beings, and other positive deeds will make a real difference in building a more blessed life in general. I reject vengeance, hatred, and divisiveness. I believe in righteousness, hope, love, liberty, and justice for all. My relatives back then and now are upper middle class, working class, teachers, celebrities, athletes, religious leaders, activists, and other unsung human beings who have made outstanding contributions to the human family. We live in a very precarious times (with new technologies, wars, social media, political debates, Trumpism, and new inventions), but at the end good will always prevail.
The Artemis II aircraft, with its four-member astronaut crew, has broken Apollo's distance record in its recent Moon flyby. So, the crew went farther from Earth than any other humans in human history. They will spend almost seven hours making observations and capturing images of the Moon's surface. They are circling the Moon in their Orion spacecraft. The crew is set to fly within 4,070 miles of the moon's surface. They are observing the Moon. They will see never-before-seen parts of the moon's surface. The areas on the far side are not visible from Earth. Even the Apollo astronauts couldn't view much of the moon's far side because of the paths and timing of their flights. They are about 252,000 miles away from the Earth. They left Earth on Wednesday from the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida. They spent 25 hours circling the Earth. Orion left Earth orbit Thursday evening and entered the sphere of influence. The pull of the moon's gravity is stronger than Earth's. The crew is expected to return to Earth on Friday evening with a splashdown in the Pacific Ocean.
There has been a bizarre Press Conference involving Trump on April 6, 2026, in which he continued to threaten to commit war crimes in Iran (by desiring to bomb power plants and other civilian infrastructure if a deal isn't achieved by Tuesday). Trump has used the war in Iran as an excuse to try to explain his power as he believes in a unitary executive (which is not constitutional, as we have three coequal branches of government which are: the legislative, judicial, and executive branches of government). Trump wants to centralize as much power as possible to control voting, control the functions of the media, and curtail dissent against him. This is a precarious time in our history. We have international law and rules of engagement to protect other nations and our soldiers, too. Trump, in an interview, disregarded the importance of following the international rule of law, regardless of what Pete Hegseth has said. Trump said that 21 aircraft came to help rescue airmen who crashed in Iran. He said that the aircraft came under heavy military fire from Iran. One U.S. helicopter has many bullets in it. Trump has threatened to jail a journalist who first reported on the downed airman if the journalist didn't reveal their sources. Trump lashed out about how Australia, Japan, and South Korea didn't help fight Iran (which are Pacific allies). The reason is that those Pacific nations knew that the Iranian war was futile, filled with vanity and massive destruction.
