WE, THE PEOPLE - Shot in the Heart
Remember one year ago, when reporters would shout and bark and throw accusations at President Biden and Press Secretary Karine Jeane-Pierre? That’s the way it was. That’s the way it has been since the beginning. The Press would send their most dogged most aggressive reporters to question authority. Sometimes they were unfair, sometimes they were biased, but that is what a Free Press is. That’s what it has been since the U.S. began. All presidents with courage handled it, and did their jobs.
It isn’t like that anymore. Now, we have a thin-skinned wannabe tough guy, and the White House Press Corp is quiet. They throw out praise more than inquire. When any one of them does stand tall and asks a serious question, they are called “nasty”, and “mean”, and threatened with the weight of the government – and they are never allowed back. A real Press Corp has been traded in for a bunch of fawning lapdogs, because this president doesn’t like getting boo-boos. He isn’t tough, he just plays tough on TV.
But it hasn’t stopped there. First, it was “60 Minutes”, the “Wall Street Journal”, and the “New York Times”, then Colbert, and now Kimmel. In addition squashing the Press, they are killing Free Speech by not allowing the jesters to comment on the Clown King’s clothes.
Meanwhile, Kilmeade suggests killing all the homeless, and he gets to keep his job. We are in an era of SANCTIONED Press and ALLOWED Speech. “Free” no longer exists. “Big Brother” is here. If you are favored, if you preach the King’s desire, praise him and do his bidding, you are allowed. If not, you are sued or threated with being shut down. It is a dictator’s dream.
Free Speech and Free Press were the heart of the United States. It was the envy of the world. We could say whatever we like, even if it was wrong or stupid. Interestingly enough, the Felon King says whatever he likes, even if it is a lie and the same for his A.G., and the head of his H.H.S., and the head of his F.B.I. They can all lie as much as they like, but do not dare question them or you will get the jackboot.
The First Amendment allows Free Speech. It allows for a Free Press. It is past time ABC, CBS, Paramount, Disney, WSJ and NYT decided to fightback. Frankly, they should all be ashamed of themselves. They willfully gave up a right without a fight. The same is true for the sniveling GOP. It is past time they clawed back some of the power they have ceded, and stood up for the Constitution – but they don’t like the United States the founding fathers drafted. They are too busy telling the Felon king how wonderful his robes are.
The United States has been shot in its heart. The same Amendment that allows Free Speech and Press, also grants us freedom of Religion, yet some GOPers are pushing to have the 10 Commandments posted in schools. It also allows for Freedom of Assembly – while the National Guard roams the streets of L.A. and D.C., and I.C.E. is now swarming in Chicago, and Georgia, and many other cities and states. The First Amendment also allows the people to Petition the government with grievances, yet we can’t get the truth of the Epstein files out of this D.O.J. or the F.B.I. We can’t get an honest debate about vaccines and medical research out of H.H.S. or the C.D.C.
You might say that this writing suggests Free Speech still exists, but I am but a lowly citizen. They have to start with the Networks, the Newspapers, the TV stars, the celebrities. It has only been 9 months. Think about that. The First Amendment virtually shut down in under a year. Give them time. They will come for the social networks, the local papers, and the blogs. The clown king has shown his intolerance. He will come for you if you give him time.
The First Amendment has been gutted, and with that, the United States as we knew it is now dead. Your freedoms and rights are gone. Every GOP member, every MAGA supporter killed America.
