Op-ed:
Uneasiness Unfolding

The Op-ed posted here is my opinion alone, and does not necessarily

As the Holiday Season has finally and
thankfully come to an end...and with it the horrendous year that was
2023...I cannot help but think that what should have been the most
joyous time of the year seemed more downplayed and somber than in
recent years passed. And while many I'm sure felt as I did, I could
not stop thinking about certain events that directly led me to harbor
what was a truly uneasy feeling regarding events relating to the
upcoming 2024 Presidential Election coupled with the horrors of an
unwanted war that could forever change key world alliances.
Now as for the upcoming election, for
me...first and foremost as it stands right now...is the fact that we
will likely see both our beloved America herself and “We the
People” being the
biggest losers no matter which party's “presumed” nominee
is elected next November... with “presumed” being the
operative word. And while on the Republican side one man has already
deemed himself to be the winner of both the nomination and the
general election, his sickly string-pulled Democrat opponent does
just the same. And this alone leads me to believe that simple common
sense and logical thinking has failed so many on both sides of the
political aisle....failed in their refusing to see that freedom's
salvation means that neither of the “presumed” nominees is the
right man to lead our country during these most dangerous and
volatile of times.
Simply and to the point, a total change
in
leadership is
desperately needed especially on the domestic front what with our
economy continuing to falter, inflation seeming to be at a standstill
at best, and our southern unsecured border remaining but an open
“free for all” fiasco. And when you add in overt foreign
policy blunders from one man while the other remains eerily silent on
certain important matters, it would be unwise to discount the
possibility that a third party
“Dark Horse” upset could
come this November. Why so? As the dissatisfaction numbers with both
the Republican and Democrat
“presumed” nominees continues
to grow...numbers which has led to a totally divided electorate now
further being divided within each party itself...means that the truly
dissatisfied might well see their only alternative being to vote
“rogue.”
According
to a fairly recent Gallup poll, not only has a growing number of the
party faithful toyed with the idea of voting for a third party
candidate, but a full 75% of independents voters...voters desperately
needed by both “presumed”
nominees to pull off a November win...also have considered voting
third party in 2024, because for them neither of the “presumed”
Republican or Democrat nominee is acceptable. Also, remember that most
independent voters do want the next generation of leaders to assume
the reigns of power, and when you couple that with the fact that it's
the independent voter who more times than not determines an
election's final outcome...courtesy of their taking support away from
both the Democrat and Republican nominees...those who are sometimes
called “spoilers”
might actually become the “saviors”
of our country come November 5th. And this is no matter that a
good number of folks in the media are saying that a vote for anyone but the
“presumed” Democratic nominee is a vote for the “presumed”
Republican nominee and, of course, visa-versa.
And
the ever constant ad-nauseam spewing of the word
“disloyalty”...whether
it be personal or party in nature... coupled
with the act of “online shaming” has
now become the calling card of both party's “presumed”
nominee along with their respective supporters, as well as it now being
the calling card of numerous “bought and paid for”
media cohorts on both sides of
the political aisle. And this, I see as being yet another form of
“election interference” in
its own right, but it's not
the same type of “interference” that
one of the
“presumed”
nominees is now currently being accused of.
How
so? As the media happily sees their bottom line profits most
decidedly in the “black”
due to ratings upticks in both viewership and online readership...as
usually happens in the lead-up to a major presidential
election...coupled with party donations rising as party leaders
continue to shove their party's “chosen ones”
down our collective throats, it now becomes apparent...or at least it
should give one pause to think...that maybe “We the
People” are being played
by the collective of both
parties hierarchy along with their “aiding and abetting”
cohorts in the media who dare not side with nor show support for any
but the party's chosen “presumed”
nominees.
Let me
explain. The Democrat party must see Joe Biden as both their party
nominee and general election winner, with Kamala Harris again being
his running mate, simply because only then would Barack Obama continue
being the one actually running the country, with this taking into
account that even if Biden were to die while in office with Kamala then
becoming president, Obama would gain even more control than he likely already has. Also, know that Biden's current policies are Obama's policies, just compare and contrast both and you'll see
they are one and the same, but with some slight variations to try and
hide what is obviously lurking in plain site. Simply, Obama loyalist
Democrats...which comprises the majority of the Democrat
party...still crave Obama's fundamental
“transformation
of America”...including but surely not limited to economic “transformation”
and cultural “transformation”...as
in the nonsense that comprises the bulk of the
“woke”
ideology...together being what I
call “structured
transformation from the inside out”...“transformation”
of the most nefarious and no
longer being kept secret kind.
To the
Democrat hierarchy...and know Obama does remain its titular
head...prime above all else is that the current Democrat status quo
must remain intact...no deviations from Obama's preset course
allowed... something that might not be possible if a different
Democrat were to garner the party's nomination. It's imperative for
the Democrats that easily controlled
“presumed”
nominee Joe Biden must run against “presumed”
Republican nominee Donald Trump for the Democrat hierarchy has had
eight long years to assure that the “fix”...the
win...is in yet
again...at least it is in a rematch between these two men. And for
this reason alone it's imperative that two new nominees...two new
persons with different sets of ideas and policies...must emerge
before the nomination process actually takes place...something that
could still happen but only if common sense is allowed to overtake
misplaced loyalty and political devotion within both the Democrat and
Republican parties...and only if the media stops pushing this rematch
ratings bonanza...a monetary bonanza only for the media...a would be reality disaster for our country as most Americans do not want a Trump v. Biden rematch.
And
while the above stated need for two new presidential nominees greatly
contributed to my holiday uneasiness, there was another event that
for me made the holiday season lackluster at best. And this event has
a start date but no end date attached to it...as in October 6,
2023... the day Hamas declared war on both the Jewish State of Israel
and on Jews in general via savagery and butchery committed...acts
unseen since the days of the Holocaust. And October 6th also marks
the day that not only did the victims that is both Israel and the
Jewish people morph into becoming the perpetrators for some, but also
marks the day that the perpetrator that is Hamas...backed, supplied,
and given marching orders by Iran of course...became a misguided hero
of sorts to those who relish in keeping the hate that is
“antisemitism”
alive.
No
wonder the holidays, for me, had a shadow hanging over them for not
only does the Israeli/Hamas war still rage on...and know that I not
only support and side with Israel and BiBi Netanyahu100%, but that I
have no sympathy whatsoever for the fate of the so-called Palestinian
civilians who not only voted Hamas into power and continue to support
them, but who have now become casualties of a war their own people
started. And when you add in that the aforementioned rise in
“antisemitism”
seems to be a perceived and accepted new norm both here in our
country and abroad it's no wonder what was once holiday joy seemed
missing this past year.
And
with what is referred to as Israeli-inflicted Palestinian
“collateral damage”...“overkill” some in the liberal media call it.
..as long as
a partisan driven agenda
sadly remains the mainstay of the liberal media's discourse...I, and
now hopefully you dear reader...can see just how powerful a tool the media...including social media...has become for Hamas and therefore Iran. And with said media...whether knowingly or unknowingly...actually becoming a part of Iran's and Hamas' arsenal to use against both Israel and the Jewish people, they also become but a tool to help Iran shape public opinion as to whom we Americans should deem
their self-perceived real enemy to be.
The media's
constant droning on about a Palestinian humanitarian crisis...a
crisis the Palestinian people alone allowed to happen...the constant
showing of physical damage to Gaza itself coupled with the constant
lies about the death toll incurred...has now been used by the enemy
and their supporters as a tool of incitement here at home. Aimed
directly at those who once silently harbored what was below the
surface antisemitism, the media's seemingly one-sided rhetoric has
directly fueled the dangerous antisemitic actions recently taken
against Jewish people here at home...actions that would never be
allowed nor tolerated if they were perpetrated against so-called
“people of color.”
And as certain
partisan driven
“talking heads” overtly now try to influence
the outcome of the November presidential election, they do so at the same
time as they continue to condemn Israel's rightful response against those hellbent on
their and the Jewish people's destruction. And sadly, it seems that the media, in
general, has now been allowed to dictate what is right and wrong, just
and unjust, actions taken. Simply, recent major events and how they've
been reported have shown not only a major shifting in former alliances...political and otherwise...but the sad possibility that the outcome of future key
events both here at home and abroad might well be decided by those in the media
who herald misinformation, choose to rewrite events, report half-truths as facts, and who relish in continuing to
spew lies...my earlier mentioned
“uneasiness” come to
life.
So as we enter this
New Year, I'm afraid that as somber as the holiday season of 2023 was
that 2024 might even be worse not just for me, but for us all. Case
closed.
