For Congressman Jamie Raskin of Maryland...
Similar to a message done over the weekend through Congressman Colin Allred of Texas' Office...
MR. RASKIN OF MARYLAND…
How many of y'all are familiar with a Congressman from Maryland named Jamie Raskin?
The long and short of Freethought, Freethinkers or Freethoughtists is THIS: Folks who put more stock and trade in; themselves, others, science and technology, reason, rational thinking and logic. They don't hold or ascribe themselves to a religious belief or absolute things such as and all powerful being called, “God” creating the Heavens and the Earth and all other things in six whole days and kicking back and relaxing on the seventh one to take everything in.
In short they're atheists, agnostics or just decline to say folks. Believe it or not I'm okay with that line of thinking these days, Organized Religion ain't looking to good for ‘the Big Guy Upstairs's Home Team down here on planet Earth if you know what I mean!?
In any case though I like the Congressman, believe it or not, and find him very affable. He's a partisan hack and full of sheep dip in more ways than one, BUT I still admire the guy, and, because I STILL maintain and have close familial ties with the Great State of Maryland (the 301 corridor in fact!) I believe him to be a True Son of Maryland and so naturally when I heard the news this past weekend of his latest take on the Trump cases before the U. S. Supreme Court naturally I had to weigh-in for a few reasons, chief amongst them where he made them -- on all counts -- in fact, and the fact that he made them in the first place!
POLITICS, POLITICIANS AND THE U. S. SUPREME COURT….
Look, I get it the guy's a politician and a partisan hack, but if you're gonna be weighing in on Trump's latest cases before the U. S. Supreme Court don't you think that you ought to be making them some place other than the Center of the Universe for Hackery and the Communications' Shop for the Democratic National Committee?
Raskin says well, "the Supreme Court may as well move on over to the [Republican National Committee HQ]..."
Although I partially get his anger and frustration with the Court lets look at where we are for just a few minutes in relation to all a this. For one thing, Trump's countless legal woes should in no way be a victory lap for either side in the equation.
But Jamie Raskin is a Politician in the theoretical business of politics. In this particular case, ‘poli’ meaning MANY, and ‘tics’ meaning blood-sucking parasites, ALERT!
That also makes him a partisan hack who's proned to; skulduggery and tomfoolery at a moment's notice! It is, after all, what politicians are best at.
In any case though Raskin and his side of the aisle go entirely to far with their ‘Get Donald Trump [and Others] at All Costs' antics.
As he was a part of the Freshmen Class for the 115th Congress of these United States of America, also known as "The Impeach the Motherfucker!" Class of 2017/2018 (midterms' winners for the Democratic Party).
These are the folks, who, for various reasons, just cannot stand Donald J. Trump, and the results of the 2016 presidential election is chief amongst their decidedly partisan grievances. And so they've said and done absolutely everything that they can to render a Trump presidency, of any kind, as ‘illegitimate’.
To question things. To raise concerns. To object entirely to the certification of elections. Etc. Etc. Is that fair?
But I'm a practical Man though. A thinker. A reasoned individual who's always willing to hear Mr. Raskin and others out. Address, rather redress grievances. Provided though that he hears mine and addresses them as well. A 50/50 compromise if you will. An even split right down the middle. That then means that we don't get absolutely everything that we want.
Yet though Democrats and Mr. Raskin are of the twisted mindset that not only should they get everything that they want they should also get extra! Especially when it comes to Trump and the notion of fines and imprisonment.
Not only should Trump be put in jail, but he should be put under the jail awaiting the sentence of death to be carried out for acts of treason against the State. An Enemy of the State summairly executed. And even then chances are still good that they will not be satisfied with the results of that. Because things like that really only serve to satisfy a hunger and a thirst for only so long a time, and that's because it's insatiable.
THE SUMMER OF LOVE AND THE GRIEVANCE INDUSTRY….
After all they've campaigned and fundraised off the effort. They've got a reputation to protect and a standard, a brand name to uphold. They can't just simply fold up the Summer of Love tent cities and encampments. Pull down flags and banners for other things! No way Jose.
Speaking of which, and I have been wondering about this all for some time now in regards to the George Floyd and Breonna Taylor Protests that took place across the Country during the so-called, "Summer of Love" Protests and Riots in those days, remember those? And that's whether or not the January 06 Attack, from the standpoint of a coup and an armed insurrection against our country's fragile democracy, or was that simply just a largely peaceful protesting as Raskin and others continue to maintain?
And I ask only because Mr. Raskin and folks like him, bless their souls, have made a cottage industry living off of grievance and the grievance industry that goes with all of that.
All at the costs of human life and the sufferings of others in relation to human condition in these United States of America and around the World. And for the costs associated with staying in power inside the friendly confines of Permanent Washington.
Ordinarily I wouldn't demand such answers much less accountability from politicians the likes of Jamie Raskin, BUT I like the guy a whole lot, believe it or not, and find him to be affable and a Man that is a True Son of the Great State of Maryland. And as someone with, as I said from the outset here, family ties to, "The DMV" -- as it relates to the Greater Washington, D. C. Metropolitian Area (D. C., Southern Maryland and Northern Virginia) -- I was quite shocked with the ways in which he went out of his way to castigate the United States Supreme Court on Thursday last because of a potential, potential now, decision or decisions that they'll be making which may or may not go in his side of the political aisle’ favor in regards to former President Donald Trump.
And I'll have much more on this, and in particular the two major political parties and who runs them in a follow-up newsletter.
Until then….DEO VINDICE ET SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS!!
