Dear editor,
Trust is getting very scarce these days. The latest example of where our trust was betrayed is the Joe Biden situation.
Hur was right, and the recording shows it. Biden was officially deemed incapable of making rational decisions while holding the presidential title and the trust of the American people. And those people around him who knew the truth and the ignorant and/or stupid media that supported them betrayed Democrats and Republicans alike by telling us that he was not only ok, but able to run for re-election.
And the FBI director betrayed the reputation of our top law enforcement by covering for Hillary as secretary of state in destroying her unauthorized files and helping her and Joe Biden weaponize the law against presidential candidate Trump. We cannot trust the Washington establishment, or the law, or the media, whose job it is to keep us informed with the truth.
Our Founding Fathers expected the media, through the First Amendment, to protect us, the citizens, by providing us with the facts so we could make rational decisions on how to govern our country.
They didn’t foresee the media taking sides and lying to us, covering up for and using the government to control us. How can you ever trust anyone who lies to you day after day?
Trust is one of the most important assets of any person, organization, or institution. There are those who no longer trust the foundations of our government; the Constitution under which our three branches of government — Congress, the Supreme Court, and the executive branch —are supposed to operate. We can’t trust the media or the federal judges representing the law.
We have almost no law or source of news we can trust.
Scary.
The U.S. news media is supporting the LA riots sponsored by China and supporting the Mexican government by inviting listeners to participate in burning police cars and blaming it on Trump for sending the National Guard that wasn’t there yet. Trust the media? Not me.
How about gang members who are illegal aliens and can’t be deported unless they get the benefit of a trial? Criminals are returned to the streets to prey upon us again. Illegal aliens who have no right to be here have all the rights and benefits of citizens, whose taxes are supporting a bloated government doing things it was never intended to do.
Like supporting men who think they are women and gang up on women legally by calling it a sport or go into women’s bathrooms to view them.
Like where the Biden admin., whoever they were, paid millions to study the menstrual cycles of transgender men.Duh? Still trust them to take care of you when they increase the size of government by 25% just to pay other countries millions to do DEI and woke and “Green Dream” stuff?
I hope my neighbors will see and understand how the Washington establishment, the Democrats, the Republicans, and their bureaucratic career staff need to be swept out of office. Please unite in helping get us back to term limits, where our representatives are qualified. Those who go on a tour do their duty and don’t make a profitable career out of it, living like elites and retiring rich.
Where they take care of necessities, not wants, that increase the deficit beyond control.
Enough of the lies.
