Racism

JD Vance Is Outrageous In Rhetoric Against Kamala Harris!

Ohio Senator JD Vance, the Vice Presidential nominee with Donald Trump, has become a “clear and present danger” by his outrageous rhetoric, simply by asserting that Kamala Harris has not been threatened with her life, as Donald Trump has now been twice threatened by potential assassins. That is totally inappropriate to say by any candidate!

It is Trump and Vance who have been speaking and threatening bloodshed and violence, and unwillingness to accept election results, and it is the Republican Presidential team which is using incendiary language and promoting racism, misogyny and causing grief to Haitian immigrants and the city of Springfield, Ohio!

Considering that Trump and Vance have utilized confrontational language and attacked the news media for reporting their evil deeds, it is them that have provoked danger and hatred, not Kamala Harris, or Joe Biden, or Tim Walz! Their incendiary language provokes unstable people, and is a danger to public safety!

Trump has talked about a “dictatorship on Day One”, which requires a response.

JD Vance has spread rumors that have caused a crisis in Springfield, Ohio, and refused to stop spreading lies and fear, and he needs to be held accountable.

His mistreatment of Dana Bash of CNN last Sunday showed he is a dangerous demagogue, who must not be allowed to become a heartbeat away from the Presidency!

Donald Trump has given us a nightmare candidate in JD Vance, clearly the most dangerous and disgraceful nominee in modern history for the number two office, making Sarah Palin and Dan Quayle look far better!

Trump-Vance Lies On Immigration: But Their Wives Are From Immigrant Families!

The anti immigrant rhetoric continues from both Donald Trump and JD Vance, despite the fact that Trump’s wife is an immigrant from Slovenia, and Vance’s wife is from an Asian Indian Hindu family!

Their refusal to stop dramatizing lies about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, that they are eating cat and dog pets of residents, is reckless, and despite the pleas of Springfield government officials to stop what they are doing.

It is pure racism and bigotry, and JD Vance just adds to his horrendous image as a man of no common decency, willing to be a chameleon in the pursuit of power.

It has to be urgent for voters to recognize that JD Vance would be a heartbeat away from the Presidency if Donald Trump wins the Oval Office again. That should be a ringing alarm bell that voters must make certain, for yet another of a multitude of reasons, to insure that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz win control of the Presidency and Vice Presidency in November!

J D Vance Controversial VP Nominee, Promoting Anti Haitian Immigrant Conspiracy Theory!

Republican Vice Presidential nominee J D Vance is already perceived as the least regarded and most controversial nominee for Vice President since Sarah Palin, and with a lower rating than both Palin and former Vice President Dan Quayle in public perception.

Donald Trump could have selected a less controversial nominee to be a heartbeat away from the Oval Office, but he chose Vance, who is perpetuating a conspiracy theory about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, that they are eating residents’ pet cats and dogs, a preposterous charge!

Vance, already suspicious due to his chameleon nature, having switched totally in his views of Donald Trump from years ago, also has stated that “Civil War” is still going on in America, and that he sides with the South and the “Confederacy” against “the woke North”.

Vance’s open racism and nativism, and his promotion of division and confrontation is alarming, and his demagoguery will make the upcoming CBS Vice Presidential debate on October 1 a moment of great public attention, when Democratic VP nominee Tim Walz confronts the controversial and divisive Vance!

Kamala Harris Continues Her Amazing Rise!

On top of her wonderful performance in the ABC Presidential Debate against Donald Trump, Kamala Harris has continued her amazing rise, gaining large amounts of additional campaign financial support; winning over more Republicans (such as former Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez under George W. Bush); and gaining in polls that now show her with a five point lead, and ahead in the Rust Belt states of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania, and tied in North Carolina and Nevada at this point.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump is claiming he won the debate, which no observer or sane person accepts as fact, and he is seen as spending time with lunatics like Laura Loomer, who even Marjorie Taylor Greene denounces. Also, his claim that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio are eating people’s pet dogs and cats is preposterous, and an indication of how far gone mentally he is.

To believe that Trump could govern for the next four years is a fantasy, and the thought that his Vice Presidential running mate, JD Vance of Ohio, is a good alternative, is to be delusional, and with Vance promoting the myth about Haitian immigrants, purely racist, and threatening to their safety!

The Harris-Trump Debate: Competence Vs Lies And Disarray!

This evening’s ABC Presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump at Philadelphia’s National Constitution Center will be a crucial moment in the Presidential Election of 2024, as public opinion polls indicate a very even race emerging in the seven “swing” states.

Harris’s need is to show her experience, competence, compassion and empathy, against the monster who is Donald Trump, who is certain to lie incessantly, and go out of his way to insult Harris, calling her names, and demonstrating racism and misogyny unapologetically.

Trump also rambles and is often incoherent, raising questions about his cognitive abilities and mental health, making many Americans wonder if he is capable to lead the nation and have the nuclear codes for the next four years, when he would become the oldest President in US history, and already is the oldest Presidential nominee we have had.

It is likely that there might not be another Presidential debate, although Vice Presidential nominees Tim Walz and JD Vance will debate on CBS on Tuesday, October 1.

Younger Generation Extreme Right Wing Advocates For Trump

As ugly and horrendous as Donald Trump is, there is a younger generation of extreme right wing advocates that portends a scary future beyond Donald Trump himself.

Among these extremists are:

Ben Shapiro, a leading podcaster, also has millions of followers on Facebook, You Tube, and X (formerly Twitter), and has no issue in being absolutely despicable, and demonstrating misogyny, racism, nativism, and Islamophobia without any shame.

David Sacks, a tech entrepreneur, best known for Paypal, who is willing to say and do anything to promote extreme right wing positions.

Charlie Kirk, leader of the group Turning Point USA, who has become very influential in right wing circles.

Vivek Ramaswamy, tech entrepreneur, and former Republican Presidential contender.

Stephen Miller, former Senior Advisor for policy and White House Director of Speechwriting for Donald Trump.

Kevin Roberts, head of the Heritage Foundation, the right wing political think tank, and promoter of Project 2025.

These and others like them present a “clear and present danger” in the long term with their authoritarian bent.

Donald Trump Implodes At Black Journalists’ Gathering In Chicago

Donald Trump shocked the National Association of Black Journalists Convention in Chicago yesterday, with his unhinged behavior towards the three black women journalists who questioned him about his stands on race, and on his Vice Presidential runningmate, JD Vance.

Trump was nasty and abusive in his utterances about Kamala Harris, accusing her of claiming to be Black when he asserted, wrongfully, that all along, she identified as Asian Indian in ethnicity.

The concept of Harris being “mixed race” is not something that should cause controversy, as 10.2 percent of the population in the 2020 Census self-identified as such.

That has nothing to do with Harris’s qualifications to be President, but once again, Trump played the “race card”, as he always has done for many years.

Supposedly, Trump was trying to gain Black support for his Presidential candidacy, but his outragous behavior does not promote such gains.

Trump’s claim to be the best President for Black Americans since Abraham Lincoln is preposterous, ridulous, and insulting!

It is clear that Donald Trump is terrified of the growing support for Kamala Harris, and is unable to figure out how to attack her, except by personal and racist insults.

His racism and misogyny are beyond the pale, and it makes one wonder why anyone with any intelligence would still support him for President!

Sad, But Essential That Joe Biden Step Aside!

As a strong and loyal supporter of Joe Biden for many years, it is a sad moment that now this blogger and author strongly believes that Biden must step aside and endorse Kamala Harris as his successor.

Biden should finish his term, but give all his efforts to the promotion of Harris to be the 47th President of the United States.

Harris has been a loyal and dedicated Vice President, and the criticisms of her are primarily racist, sexist, and misogynistic, as she is, clearly, perfectly qualified to be the next President of the United States.

The latest public opinion polls demonstrate that Biden is behind Donald Trump in every “swing state”, as well as in trouble in states that should not be in play, including Virginia, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Colorado, and Minnesota, and the Second District in Nebraska.

The thought of Donald Trump and JD Vance as the next President and Vice President is horrifying, but it could be even worse with the Democrats losing the US Senate and failing to regain the House of Representatives majority, which otherwise seemed likely.

No one man can be seen to be allowed to use his ego over the needs of his nation, his party, and all of the American people.

So by Sunday night, Biden needs to address the nation and announce his withdrawal, and endorsement of Kamala Harris.

It is only a bit more than 100 days to the election, and six months to the inauguration, and the nation needs to see a unified Democratic Party fighting for a decent future, and preventing an extremist right wing government under Trump, and long term, the much more dangerous JD Vance!

Project 2025: Final Conclusions On Danger Of Extremist Right Wing Agenda!

This author and blogger has spent a week describing the organization, the Heritage Foundation, and its threatening leader, Kevin Roberts.

There is so much that needs to be written about Project 2025, but I will summarize for now the major ideas and points, with the possibility that in the future weeks and months, the subject of this threat to American democracy, the Constitution, and rule of law will be addressed further.

Project 2025 presents a threat to the nation in so many ways:

The possibility of a dictatorship, with dangerous followers and believers in Donald Trump, imposing their will on the American people, and destroying the nation as we come upon its 250th anniversary in 2026.

The destruction of the federal government and its agencies and departments, ending the civil service bureaucracy created under the Pendleton Act of 1883.

The threat to America’s position in world affairs, with the possibility of the destruction of our foreign alliances, and instead, collaboration with authoritarian dictatorships, based upon the Communist model, despite Trump claiming the Democrats are “Communists, Socialists”!

The destruction of the environment, as climate change and global warming becomes more of a crisis every year, undermining the health and safety of millions of Americans, mostly those who are poor and deprived.

The clear racism and antisemitism and misogyny that Project 2025 promotes, in the name of white Christian nationalism and supremacy, in a nation founded on separation of church and state.

The threat of military and police control, taking away the civil liberties of the Bill of Rights and the Civil Rights Era under Chief Justice Earl Warren and the Supreme Court in the 1950s and 1960s.

The destruction of the American economy, with the continuing dominance of corporations and billionaires, and the subjugation of workers and unions, all in the name of unbridled capitalism, as existed in the Gilded Age of the late 19th century in America.

The undermining of public education, instead promoting propaganda and mistruths about history, science, literature, and other areas of the curriculum, all part of a plan to control the minds of the future generations to accept the goals of those who wish to control them in an authoritarian matter long term!

The arrest, prosecution, and imprisonment of political critics and destruction of a free press, and expanding a judiciary that promotes a right wing agenda long term!

These threats must be met by resolve to prevent this extremism from gaining power, and destroying the American nation!

Donald Trump And “Religious” Supporters: Pure Hypocrisy!

Donald Trump is a vile human being, totally racist, nativist, misogynist, a twice impeached, four times indicted, and convicted felon on 24 counts.

He has done tremendous harm in so many ways, and is the most massive liar ever in public office!

And yet, evangelical Christians invite him to their gathering, and laugh and applaud his horrendous, hate filled rhetoric!

And sadly, many so called “devout” Catholics, and Orthodox Jews, also seem to have no issue in backing such a despicable person, who disgraced the Presidency for four years, and pledges a dictatorship, and makes clear there is no need to vote in four years!

What is wrong with these supposedly devout hypocrites? 🙁

This is why organized religion is declining rapidly in America, and legitimizes the statement of Karl Marx two centuries ago, that “religion is the opium of the people”, a factor that has caused more hate, bloodshed, and death than any other human institution! One does not need to endorse Karl Marx to say he was correct in this regard!
