A Moderately Thankful Thanksgiving




On November 22, 2017, I wrote a Thanksgiving post titled Another Thanksgiving With Little To Be Thankful For.  I had written a similar post the previous year titled Thanksgiving 2016 So Little To Be Thankful For.  This year I am somewhat more positive than in the two previous years about conditions in America but we still have a great deal to be genuinely fearful and disgusted about.  We got a very mixed result in the November elections at a time when America should have been voting straight Democratic.  We were able to regain Democratic control of the House Of Representatives but we failed to gain control of the US Senate at a time when control of both houses of congress would have assured that we could put an end to the illegal occupation of the White House by TRAITOR & Spawn Of Satan Trump.  Democrats gained control of a total of seven governors offices that had previously been held by Republicans. We should have won every one of those offices which were up for grabs.  In Kentucky's 6th Congressional District, Lt. Col Amy McGrath (Ret.) lost to Andy Barr in Central Kentucky despite being supported by former Vice President Joe Biden and most of the living former governors of Kentucky.  With the US Senate race in Florida still hanging in the balance as of today, November 15, 2018, Democrats have lost one seat in the Senate.  But we did gain control of Senator John McCain's seat in Arizona with a win from US Senator elect Kyrsten Sinema, the first openly bisexual senator to be elected in America.  

We can look forward to a House under Democratic control and the likelihood of significant investigations being carried out into the crime spree of TRAITOR &  Spawn Of Satan Trump.  Congressman Elijah Cummings will most likely be the chair of the House Oversight Committee and once again he will prove his courage, patriotism, and commitment to democracy by investigating TRAITOR & Spawn Of Satan Trump’s tax returns as well as delving into dealings between the federal government and the Trump International Hotel near the White House.  But it does not appear likely that we will see a successful impeachment of the worst traitor in world history unless one of the investigations or the Mueller investigation can unearth video evidence depicting him giving US classified information to Russia.  Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell will do literally anything to help TRAITOR & Spawn Of Satan Trump cling to his illegally gotten power and position.  In many ways despite the wins in elections across America, we are still facing the possibility that the crime spree will continue until January 20, 2021.  And if that occurs, it will be a real tragedy.

We are facing an unprecedented and unconstitutional attack on the free press!  At least three female African American reporters have been verbally attacked by TRAITOR & Spawn Of Satan Trump.  Jim Acosta and his employer CNN have been forced to sue TRAITOR & Spawn Of Satan Trump in US District Court because Mr. Acosta's White House press credential was revoked out of spite because he had the courage to ask justifiable questions about the crimes of TRAITOR & Spawn Of Satan Trump.  These attacks on a free press are an early indicator of pending Fascism if America is not rescued from the Russian Owned Criminal Syndicate which lives in the White House.

Millions of US citizens in Florida, Texas, and California are being denied appropriate disaster services following natural disasters of both hurricanes and raging wildfires which have killed hundreds, left hundreds of thousands homeless, and destroyed billions of dollars worth of personal property, real estate, and public buildings and services.  Such deliberate refusal of necessary services to US citizens in the wake of disasters has never been seen before and will, hopefully, never be seen again if we do the right thing and indict, convict, impeach, and imprison TRAITOR & Spawn Of Satan Trump.  

But I began this blog post by saying that this is a moderately thankful Thanksgiving.  We do have control of the US House of Representatives.  We did win a few governors offices.  We do have Elijah Cummings prepared to stand up for America one more time.  We do have a committed Resistance in America and I am proud to be a part of it.  You should be too!
