Over the past few months, I have been conducting my own little experiment in trying to understand supporters of DJT and why they think the way they do. Now, mind you, I'm not an expert at this, however, I have spent a lifetime observing people and their mannerisms.
Tonight I had the displeasure of seeing DJT and his shit show called a rally, where he accused any and all of being "baby killers". But more than anything, one thing peaked my interest. In watching they way he spoke to the "idiots" in his audience, I couldn't help but see how he delivered his words and how those people ate it up! And I thought "that sounds like Jim Jones and his crowd". It was almost as if he was a hypnotist and he put the whole audience into a trance. The "oohs" and "ahhs" all in the right places, people looking at him like he's a god. The man knows how to manipulate better than anyone I've seen, and he doesn't care how he achieves that goal, as long as he achieves it. Of course, it's all going to come back and bite him in the ass like he's never been bitten before. I personally want to see him broke and living off of food stamps in one of his tenements among the Blacks and Jews and Asians and Puerto Ricans and any other minority that he has slandered. That's after he gets out of jail! But anyway, I now understand a little better why you can't carry on a civil conversation with a trumpist, because if you call them out on ANYTHING, it's you're a fucktard, you have no brain, if you don't like it, leave. I haven't heard an original word from any of them! I see a country that's was founded on the premise that we would be free from tyranny, that our government was of the people, by the people and for the people. That country no longer exists. We are now controlled by billionaires and tyrants who don't give a damn about you. And the idiots in the Republican party love it! We have approximately 330 million people in this country. Of that 330 million, approximately 2/3 are eligible to vote. Of that 2/3, maybe half will vote, the other half won't, leaving about 120 million that take the time and effort to do their civic duty. 40% are independents, leaving about 30% repub and 30% dems. Now do you understand the concept of what I am trying to say? This country hates each other, (for no reason mind you). They have been conditioned exactly the same way the Nazi's did in Germany and I don't see an immediate remedy to it, meaning, unless we get that sorry excuse for a human out, this country will continue to degrade! It is time for impeachment, but only when they have their duck in a row. Have a pleasant day and may peace be among you! dennismoconnor.com It's 3 AM and I was thinking about the absurdity of our Cannabis laws. Cannabis, weed, flower, ganja, bud, herb, whatever the hell you want to call it, it's still just a weed with medicinal properties for many people and has been for centuries!
The one and only reason it's not legal is MONEY! Big Pharma doesn't want it legal, they would lose too much MONEY unless they can get their greedy little hands on it! The for profit prisons sure as hell don't want it, they would lose too much MONEY for locking up people trying to survive by selling a weed! Other industries like plastics manufacturers, cotton growers, paper mills, you name it. Now it's big business and I guarantee that right now, hedge fund managers are foaming at the mouth and attempting to corner the market for the sake of MONEY! Just legalize the shit out of it, allow anyone over the age of 21 to buy, sell, grow, give away, consume, have possession of and otherwise do what they can without worrying that a damn weed that up until the abolitionists got hold of it was legal! Anyone who thinks they're in their right mind that believes (just like alcohol) that just because the government says you can't have it means you can't get it, is not in their right mind. Stop feeding the syndicates, cartels, dealers, dirty cops, politicians, whoever is making a buck off this. And that means the government too! It's a frickin' weed, get over it! Peace out, enjoy some bud and just chill. dennismoconnor.com I know that most of you don't have the time or inclination to do political or financial research.
I also know that a good percentage of you simply don't care , as long as you are comfortable. I sit in front of my computer the better part of the day. I read much about everything. I can see red flags all over the place, flags that most people don't want to see, but they are there! I think that at this point, you had better start caring. We are in the hands of a criminal cabal in our government. It has been taken over by the most corrupt man I have ever known and all of his cronies. 2018 was the hottest year on record, we had the most wildfires in history, we were hit with the strongest storms both winter and summer and people still say climate change is a hoax. In Nebraska and surrounding states, we had flooding that decimated hundreds of family farms, many of which were on the verge of bankruptcy before the storms. What does it take to wake people up? Breadlines, bank runs, no water, no food in grocery stores? Over 1 million acres were under water, land which will not be used this season, over 1 million calves died, thousands upon thousands of pigs drowned. Your food supply is in danger and you don't care? The elite 400 want you poor and starving, so they can control you. The "middle class" is dying! In just a few years, you will be held in debt servitude to the billionaires and oligarchs! I know this sounds alarmist, but think. What is your life right now? Do you have a decent sum in savings? Do you own your home and car? Do you have credit card debt? Do you have health insurance, or are you one of the ones who will be told if you can't afford it, then just die? Do you have a job that will survive a downturn in the economy? I know I am prepping for the worst, and if it doesn't happen, then I'll leave my food supply to my heirs! I thought that 2016 was the last chance to make the right decisions. So what did we do? We allowed a pure con artist to steal the election and it's taken us 2 1/2 years to at least see daylight. In the meantime our country is being dismantled before our eyes in broad daylight! We might have one more chance. I doubt it, but one can hope. We are heading for the end if we do not do right in 2020. We must rid ourselves of the cancer that is tearing our country apart, politicians in bondage to wealthy donors and hateful people that can't think for themselves. I do not believe we are going to survive this much longer if we don't stop it in it's tracks. We are running out of time! Regardless, I still wish everyone a peaceful night and may tomorrow bring a good day. dennismoconnor.com As I sit here tonight, like many nights, I can't help but feel a large amount of disillusionment with this country and it's "leaders". Granted, there are people in Congress trying to right the Ship of State, but they are having to deal with outright criminals in the process. Who will win out in the end, I don't know. What I do know is that each and every day that this continues without the entire Administration being arrested and charged with the crimes they have already committed, is a day that we go further down in the cesspool. In my lifetime, I thought Nixon was bad. But this administration has him beaten all to hell!
We are supposed to be a country ruled by laws and everyone is supposed to be held to the same standard. What is going on today is reminiscent of the Wiemar Republic in the 30's, with the only exception being that today it is Muslims and not Jews. Everything else is the same! Children, torn from their parents arms and put in cages, some dying while in custody, for the crime of trying to seek asylum from death or rape. Police killing unarmed black people for the simple fact that they are black, shoot first, ask questions later. If you are that goddamned scared, you don't belong in law enforcement. Find an office job somewhere! Last year, I ran for public office. During that time, I learned many things about people. Some were very interested in what I believed, others wouldn't listen to facts if you gave them thousands of dollars to listen. A closed mind is a very dangerous thing! And that is exactly what is going on today! tRump has appealed to the basest instincts and biases of uneducated people and has been able to make them believe his is the only way, exactly the same as Adolph Hitler, and we know how that turned out. #45 believes in Hitler's methods and is trying as hard as he can to make himself the modern version. He is taking out any who will oppose him and in their place putting people that will bend to his wishes. This has to stop NOW! Stacking the courts, destroying our faith in the media, (although they are doing a pretty good job of that all by themselves), destroying our lands and waterways with pollution. You name it, he's doing it! He must be taken down before we all go down with him. Congress, get on the fast track! Mueller, leak the goddamned report to Congress! Someone do something other than sit on your dead asses collecting your pay for doing NOTHING! And in 2020, if you vote for any goddamned republican, you are voting against yourself and your families! The Republican Party of today is Corrupt, Corrupt, Corrupt! And if you are a republican, can you not see what your party has become? This is not the republican party my grandfather was part of, nor will it ever again be! If we survive until the 2020 election, which I believe would be a miracle, you have a choice. Use it wisely, for you and yours lives are hanging in the balance! That's it for now, have a nice evening and may you find your way before it's too late. May peace be with you. dennismoconnor.com Someone recently wrote a post about Nestle' Corporation and how they were worried about the jobs they provide to the communities where they have bottling plants, yet disregarded the environmental impact they have on aquifers.
Make no bones about it, Nestle' Corporation is buying up the rights to the worlds water supplies and bottling in plastic bottles by the billions, doing two things in the process. Destroying our oceans and landfills and air with pollution, yet tying down the rights to OUR water all over the world. Clean water is the next gold rush! If you don't have access or can't afford it, you die! Simple as that! They are not benevolent, they are smart. And communities all over the world are falling for it for the mere pittance they provide in return. Ten years from now, you will regret doing what you are doing, but not now. WE HAVE JOBS! What happens when your surrounding wells start running dry? You BUY what was once yours for FREE, from Nestle'. Don't say I didn't warn you! May peace be with you. dennismoconnor.com Okay, so somehow we as a country "elected" DJT as our "president". Or let's just say the Electoral College "elected" DJT.
DJT is for the wealthy and making himself and others around him wealthier than they already are, which is obscene to start with. So, where do we go from here? DJT is many things but righteous is not one of them. Or beneficent! He will go down in history as the most corrupt individual to ever occupy the White House, bar none! But where does that leave the average person, of which 98% of you are? The super-wealthy drew down 82% of all the wealth created last year, which leaves 18% for the rest of America, 330,000,000 strong. Are you content with their crumbs left to fight over? I'm not! Now they want your Medicare and Social Security, so they can give themselves more tax breaks. If you really want to know how badly you are being screwed, look at the roads you drive on, try to get a reasonably priced healthcare plan, try to make ends meet with rent or house payments, try to put food on the table for your family. They taxed the wealthy at 90% during the days of Eisenhower, and look what they accomplished! We had strong labor unions, we had good paying jobs, a healthy economy where everyone flourished. The Interstate highway system was built. America was a powerhouse! Just look where we are today. All the good jobs are off-shore because the wealthy want it that way and have every intention of keeping it that way! You think being a refugee from a country where you face life or death struggles each and every day is fun? Where the United States and other countries like Russia disrupt their lives and cause instability because they want their oil. This is not a game! People are dying because of this, and a good percentage of you don't give a damn one way or the other, because you're not them! You are fairly comfortable compared to other countries. You have no idea how well off you are, in spite of the bullshit. But it is coming to a head. Our country is being ripped apart at the seams and you still believe the "Orange Buffoon" is going to save you and your biases. Well guess what, you are the next in line to be screwed. Your anger at your fellow man (and I mean all your fellow human creatures on this Earth) is being manipulated to destroy and you are going along with it with passion! We must see beyond our own prejudices and realize that you are being used as a weapon, a weapon more dangerous than all the bombs and bullets you have. You are helping with your own destruction and you don't see it. I see it! I have always seen it! Call me a pessimist, a doomsayer, whatever you choose. But deep down, you know I am right. You are struggling in jobs you don't like, you are buying things you don't need to make yourself feel better, all the while driving yourself deeper in debt. For what? So you can get up tomorrow and do it again? You're feeding the machine! STOP! Tennessee Ernie Ford sang the song "16 tons and what do you get, another day older and deeper in debt". Is this what you really want for yourselves and your families? Believe it or not, you can change it for the better. Educate yourselves, believe in yourselves and change your world! Vote in elections as an informed voter for people that care about you and others and not just what someone has told you all your life.. Republicans have shown you who they are, believe them! May peace be with you all! dennismoconnor.com Back on 3/17, I said I was leaving social media for awhile until the dust settled down from Barr's summary. But I also said that we should have faith in Robert Mueller. After all, he was the prosecutor who put John Gotti "The Teflon Don" in prison for the rest of his life, because he was able to turn a hit-man with many hits, Sammy "The Bull" Gravano.
Suffice to say, Bob Mueller knew what he was up against and he also knew that no matter what, it would all see the light of day someday. Well, that time is soon upon us and we will see where it goes from here. Myself, I believe the end is finally in sight and I don't think they will be able to survive it. The crooks in Congress, The"president", Mitch McConnell and all their ilk. Keep in mind, Bob Mueller was FBI Director, a Marine who served and was awarded Bravery Medals in Viet Nam, a damned good prosecutor who is known to be meticulous and go by the book straight shooter. Don't for a minute believe that he didn't know what he was doing! Have a great day and may peace be with you! dennismoconnor.com Rise Up
