Millions of Americans have had to endure trauma - and those who lost their loved ones, more.

Covid-19 is here to stay for at least two years from now - and we know who is responsible for its spread - taking a nonchalant attitude. 

Millions of Americans treasure their freedom and when they make choices they do not like to lead by the nose -  against their will - that will not happen in FREE - the United States of America.

America and Americans love their Freedom - not License - License is an abuse of Freedom. Fundamentally, the man in the White House cannot comprehend this - and must be charged - for crimes against Humanity. He and his entire family - also those minions on record for agreeing and implementing his nefarious plans. 

Most Americans adhere to the laws of the land.  The majority of Americans are in favor of the popular vote. We also have in our Nation the model of the Electoral College - it is primitive and cast a dark cloud on any fair and just elections.

There are some that strongly favor the Electoral College and its dubious Opus Operandi  - we must move and act with the times - and be respectful of the rights of the people - with fair play and justice for all.  

The Electoral College reminiscent of the Feudal System - transferred here to Turtle Island by the British - is outdated and mundane.  As I said it serves no good purpose and must be done away with - now. 

It is time that the Electoral College and that sordid and putrid system - be cast into the garbage bin - and incinerated. It has caused too much harm - and cast a dark cloud on our Constitution.

Harriet Tubman -

perhaps the most daring - warrior woman -

who understood freedom and free thousands of slaves -

directly and indirectly.

As much as our present civilization detest slavery - we are slaves to blatant discrimination, unfair taxes -

those in position - using privilege to adversely impact millions -

some people of color -pandering to Greed and Money -

wake up America - only in UNITY can we fix the problems -

LatinX,  Pacific-Asians, Blacks, Indigenous people, Whites, others

 -we must create a new way of living where dignity, fairness, 

justice, law, and order are changed for the better -  politicians must

fully comprehend they are in politics to serve the people -

not the many lobbyists, those evil bribing to get their work done -

roaming day and night - the halls of Congress and other offices - 

wheeling and deal and hurting innocent people  - those conducting

the nefarious activities - harming so many innocent people - 

linked to the corrupt politicians - and those evil to the core -  

 in the Fossil Fuel industry, Insurance, Financial Institutions 

the list goes on and on - Quality of Life - matters.

This monument was brought down - the scene depicts -

the church, the slave owners, treating the indigenous with 

disdain - that includes all people of color - when those

monuments are brought down - they are rid of because 

the monuments stand - for those things that we do not agree with -

more those things that disrespect humans beings - everyone must 

be treated with respect - all treated equally. 
 

Slave owners thought they would circumvent the voting system and anoint themselves to represent the peasants. Those days are over - and the present incumbent - has already lost and is at his wit's end. 

I have lived long enough to have witnessed and read about many leaders - leaders from many Nations. Today in the United States we have someone - that I do not want to mention his name - hopefully - November 3, 2020 - this person - will be history - relegated to the trash can - his name erased - and his tarnished actions - forgotten.

I served my Nation as best as I could - and never imagined a Commander in Chief who would act in such a manner - that he would shame our servicemen and women.

No Commander in Chief calls our soldiers losers and suckers.

No Commander in Chief looks down on our servicemen and women who have been captured and speak ill of them.

No Commander in Chief would permit infants, children, women put in harm's way - infants separated from the immigrant mothers - children sent to far off places and cannot be located and traced - others treated with disdain and many immigrants - dead.

This Commander in Chief is a coward - and has no balls - he talks too much - and November 3, 2020 - he will be history.

He will be outed and he will be forgotten - much like trash. we throw in some trash bin - to be disposed of as soon as possible. 

In January this Commander in Chief - with intent put millions in danger - today over 9 million Americans have been infected with the COVID-19 virus - and over 229,000 dead.

No Commander in Chief blames others - blames Nations - an astute and stellar Commander in Chief - takes control of the situation at hand -  does a needs assessment - meets with his Chief Advisors - and addresses the situation at hand.

The United States is a Superpower that for the first time had a Commander in Chief - who was NOT educated on issues, had NO leadership quality, and what is important to note - misinformed - always listening to disinformation.

We in the United States never ever had a Commander in Chief who was a chronic liar, a man who does not pay his taxes,  a person who say one thing but does another - who always puts himself in the center of any situation - and always makes a fool of himself. 

Many comic books will depict the buffoon. Many movies will be made about the buffoon. All this and more will never, ever bring back lives - too many lives have been lost - 236,072 dead. All over the United States confirmed 9,402,590 Covid-19 cases - despicable - and we know who is behind this raging Covid-19 fire.

We honor and are grateful to our Doctors,

our nurses, medical technicians, our janitors

all our essential workers - more those who laid

their lives - in the line of duty - God bless them all.

Thousands of families all over the United States

we honor you and God bless you and your loved ones 

we share your hurt and we feel your pain 

you will be remembered -  with the change in government

you all will be commended and more remembered

you all have left a legacy.

This Commander in Chief is a disgrace to the human race

the thousands dead - crimes against humanity -

he has BLOOD on his hands - make no bones about that 

we must not let our guard down 

more we must pray and be grounded 

these are times - very trying times - where we must keep it real -

we will WIN - and we must WIN - and we must be in the cockpit.

America our children, youth, young adults, our Elders 

are confounded, shocked - this Commander in Chief has failed us -

Nancy Pelosi has failed us - she is not a leader -

millions are suffering - food security - and many on the verge 

of a breakdown - no rent money,  bills to be paid - others have committed suicide -

 we must not take this situation, seriously - it will pass away.

  

America - this land of the indigenous people 

better known to the just and sacred ones as Turtle Island

has taken a turn for the worse - we know deep in our heart

 how this Nation and those in the present White House 

have done wrong - from the days of slavery and more

Are we going to lie - much like the Commander in Chief?

Are we going to make promises as does the Commander in Chief?

The pain is too deep to go away - the scars will be there to remind us all - for a long time,  bring nightmares - 

 we could have done better - but failed - miserably -

 poor leadership 

we must now go deep into ourselves - and heal -

we must nourish our bodies with the best nutrition 

feed our mind with sound thoughts and learn to discern

stop talking to the TV and be slow to filter what you see and hear

Finally - our soul matters - and therein lies - everything -

pray with your heart in the right place - good actions counts -

more empathy, compassion, meditation, and love.

Chief Joseph

All over this Nation - there will be a sign - a reawakening

those that have seen the Blue Light - gone beyond and come back

those that God has spared - have things to tell us - more truth 

All over the Nation - there will be acupuncture points 

these healing points will rejuvenate thousands 

bring peace where there is none - evil begets evil -

 so - we must unite, put our best foot forward and WIN.

The indigenous love Mother Earth -

indigenous warrior women have suffered a lot -

no more - we must take the fight - to the highest level -

for too long, have too many, suffered - now is a new beginning.

The Great Spirit sees it all 

those who are evil are limited in their ways

those blessed with Wisdom as do our Elders and ancestors

know better - what is good for the mind, body, and soul

we must embrace the best we have -  uplift each other 

it will not be easy - it can be done - our effort and love matters -

May the Great Spirit that sees all - bless you all. Aho.
