The Swalwell saga perfectly shows how politics really works in America. They’ve had this dirt on him for years and sat on it until he stepped out of line. It explains why no matter who you vote for, you get the same results.
One nation under blackmail.
“Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it, everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives.”
Carl Sagan and Ann Druyan
I’m fucking tired.
I’m tired of this shit. I’m tired of giving my loyalty and getting lied to again. I swear on everything, this is the last time I give that kind of loyalty away.
I don’t even want to write this. I’d rather shut this account down, disappear into the Mediterranean, sit in my villa, drink local wine, watch my kids grow up, smoke a cigarette, and forget all of this.
But I can’t.
I’ve done well for myself. I don’t need this. I stay because I care, and I’ll stay a little longer for my kids. But I’m fucking tired.
I’m tired because my fellow Americans are struggling. They can’t buy homes. They can’t go out. They can’t live the life they were promised.
And we sit there and call them lazy.
That’s bullshit.
We send our money everywhere else. We fight wars for others. We fund everything except our own people.
We could have built something great here. For us. For our kids. For generations.
Instead, we’re squandering it.
Like we have for so many decades now.
Weak leadership. Corruption. People who are easily manipulated. And a population that keeps buying into it.
Enough.
Enough of this shit.
