Believe Them…

I’m going to write about something which for me is extremely unpleasant, that honestly goes against the very fabric of who I am and a promise I made to myself when I started this blog over eleven years ago. But, a certain event over the past few days has forever cemented in my mind as to how this country is being governed and one I’m going to write about directly, which is, you guessed it…politics. As I have certain beliefs about authority and about how those in power who have authority over us, know that my mind hasn’t changed course overnight, but over a period of many decades. The reasons for which much has been personally witnessed by me firsthand. You may have seen me mention in other blog entries that I believe “politicians always rule for their own benefit”, and this is something I still believe today. They may have “decent” intentions at first, but it never ends up that way. I do not follow one party or the other, or any political party for that matter nor do I banter or argue about politics…ever. I just don’t personally care for politics or politicians. Not in the least.

However, the particulars around this incident are extremely troubling, so much so that I felt compelled to write about it, which again, for me is quite loathsome to do. But I believe it needs to be said.

This past Wednesday, Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT), while being interviewed by MSNBC host Chris Hayes, said “the Democratic Party’s push for a path to citizenship in border legislation has failed the people they “care most about” in this country, “undocumented Americans”.

Let that sink in a moment.

Now, at first glance my initial question was, what is an “undocumented American”? It’s like being driving a car…you either are, or you aren’t. You’re either an American or you’re not. There are undocumented aliens flooding our borders by the thousands each day, and they certainly aren’t Americans. Let me say, however, that I do personally and strongly believe in the true, legally administrated immigration processes for those wanting to come to this country legally. But, for the purpose of this blog entry, this is beside the point I’m making here.

Here is the actual quote given the interviewer Hayes by Senator Murphy…”Well, I mean, Chris, that’s been a failed play for 20 years. So, you are right that that has been the Democratic strategy for 30 years, maybe, and it has failed to deliver for the people we care about most, the “undocumented Americans” that are in this country.” What he said was, and there is no walking it back, is that they care more about illegal aliens and those pouring into this country than they do about, oh goodness, let me see…their own constituents, rampant violent crime, homelessness, veteran mental health issues, tax money pouring out of the country for insane reasons, the quality of the U.S. educational system, infrastructure issues, inflation, health care, unemployment, just to name a few and the list goes on. No, what they “care about most” in this country, and Murphy actually verbalized it, are the illegal aliens flowing across the southern border like blood from a sliced jugular vein. A lot of whom are unaccompanied military aged males of Chinese and European descent. But, again, this is not the point.

This interview, and the statements made therein, should raise in you so many red flags and get you to begin questioning the actual, serious intent of those who hold power over you, your safety, your finances, your family, and your country. Why would they think this way you ask? C’mon, let’s be realistic…you know as well as I do, it’s about votes, plain and simple. Votes and power, the ultimate aphrodisiacs. Things are not well in City Hall.

If something absolutely and unbelievably catastrophic happens in our country similar to what happened on 9/11, and I believe that possibility greatly exists due to our open borders, the political grandstanding and finger pointing will be an incredible political extravaganza to witness. The soapboxes will be built, the suits donned, and the pontificating will begin…”it’s this one’s fault, it’s that one’s fault, it’s due to this or it’s due to that”. Then when the dust finally settles, and the funerals have been held, and the shedding of tears has waned, and the grief has somewhat subsided, and the country returns to normal (whatever that means), the politicians will simply get back into their tinted window limousines, and calmly and without emotion or sympathy, tell their handlers to take them to their favorite restaurant for dinner.

I could write pages on this issue, but I think I’m going to stop here. You get the point. And, yes…the emperor has no clothes.

If a politician tells you who they really are, believe them.
