Give me liberty or give me death.
It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.
There comes a time when silence is betrayal.
You're not supposed to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality; wrong is wrong, no matter who says it.
Defiance.
A word.
Used by men and women who stood against the tide of injustice throughout the history of our world.
The defiant.
Heroes of truth.
When no one around them would stand to stop the tide of tyranny, they stood in opposition.
The sent a shot across the bow of corruption that resonates yet today.
Defiance.
Defiance in the act of standing against the dark heart of humanity is what we all can recognize as having a true spirit of compassion.
Yet today on the lawn of the White House, a President stood in defiance of our Constitution.
He stood defiant to our traditions.
He spits in the face of our ministers of the fourth estate.
He dares those sworn to uphold the law to investigate him.
He mocked the legislation branch for their duty to the country and the American people.
His retort?
So what…
Psychological projection is a defense mechanism in which the human ego defends itself against unconscious impulses or qualities (both positive and negative) by denying their existence in themselves while attributing them to others.*
When the President stands before us and points his finger at all those that are corrupt around him, its blatantly clear that he's blaming everyone else for why his hand is in the cookie jar.
Damn the defiant.
This President is not playing political games.
He is not a chess master.
He does not have prescience beyond his own self-interest.
He's highly capable of acting reasonably.
He can pretend, to a minimal extent, he knows about statecraft.
But bottom line as a sociopath it's all an act.
He has learned from many criminal mentors throughout his life how to dodge and deflect when the good guys are on your trail.
There is enough public information about who this President has rubbed elbows with starting with his father Fred, the original slum lord to Jeffrey Epstein, to Kim, to MSB, to Putin, to Xi that he does not care for the truth.
Learning from one tyrant to the other in his life, he has learned how to skate on the edge of legality and get away with crimes.
You are known by the company you keep.
It should now be abundantly clear that this person in the Presidency is not like any of the other occupants of that office since his hero Andrew Jackson.
Even our American society had grown since Jackson days when the President owned slaves and committed genocide against native peoples.
Some of us recognize that this current occupant of the White House has an obvious problem with the truth.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi recognized that this President would impeach himself.
How could she know that?
Speaker Pelosi must know sociopaths like I know sociopaths that they will keep on doing wrong for their own benefit come hell or high water.
They can't stop on their own.
Someone or something has to draw a line in the sand.
Someone has to be…
Defiant.
We, meaning both sides of the color divide in this nation, red and blue, Republican and Democrat have to stand.
We have to stand now as a people in defense of our Constitution.
This isn't political.
This is a defense of our freedom from an individual and his henchmen who want to subvert our rights for their profit.
They will stand their ground also in defiance.
They will dare us to have the courage of our convictions and come for them.
Like petulant adolescents, they will scream and cry unfair, everyone is corrupt, you're corrupt for even trying to stop us.
You're ignorant, unjust, traitors...
Republicans and Democrats must unite as the adults in the room.
It's time to give this President and his posse a time out.
Peace
