BREAKING: Fox News triggers Trump, posting his lowest approval rating yet at just 39%, with 59% disapproving.
He is unfit to lead, and America is rejecting him.
We must accept that there is one President and one Government at a time. That President and government deserves to be respected but, they must not be feared. The flip side of the respect due to government, is the responsibility that Government bears. It is not disrespectful to hold one’s government to account. To remind government of the promises it made, to point out where those promises were broken and to ask how the government intends to fulfill those promises is not vitriol or disrespect, it is simply holding one’s leaders to account.
When we ask these hard hitting questions, the questions must not be rhetorical. We must be attentive to the answers of our leaders! And once we have listened, if those answers are not reassuring, it is our patriotic duty to ask follow up questions.
There is also nothing wrong with asking questions of those who ruled us in the past and when they answer truthfully, to listen to them attentively. Why listen? Because they would have learnt something from their experiences and mistakes, and the lessons they learnt can benefit us. As the old adage goes - experience is the best teacher.
Of the former leaders I have had the privilege of interacting with in Africa, those that came to an unhappy end, invariably wish they had listened more to their critics and opponents, while they wish they had ignored the echo chamber created by the sycophantic praises of those who would eventually destroy them. History has shown us that, in what ever office we hold, the only title after ‘current’ is ‘former’ and, at all levels, we must conduct ourselves as transient leaders, who will one day have to account for our time in office.
Since sharing this photo yesterday, I’ve been subject to some pretty horrible comments about my appearance and weight.
I contemplated deleting it. But instead, I’ve decided to post it again to show I’m not ashamed of my body!! 😃
Wow!! This whole speech is INCREDIBLE:
Richard Gere, "We have a bully and a thug who is President of the United States…
But it's not just in the US, it's everywhere"
"Authoritarianism takes us all over"
"We have to be vigilant. We have to be alert. We have to be energetic. We have to be brave. We have to be courageous"
"And everyone who is watching this.. We have to be willing to stand up, tell the truth, be honest"
"There's a place in all of our lives for basic kindness, for basic love, and understanding"
DAMN RIGHT.
RT so every single American sees this.
BREAKING; In a stunning moment, Republican Congressman Pete Sessions just admitted that Elon Musk and his DOGE team broke into private data servers to access your private information. This is massive government overreach.
