2021 like 1984?

For many of us, 1984 is the year that President Reagan came within 3,700  votes in Minnesota of winning 50 states.   Then there is the other 1984, the famous book about the future.

In this context of the cancel culture, is it any surprise that "1984" is back in the best seller list?   Maybe it's a coincidence or maybe some Americans are reading this from the book:   
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
We will survive this madness.  The Democrats are clearly overreaching, as a stunning Rasmussen poll about President Trump (49% approval) showed yesterday.   Fasten your seat belts and stand up to the thugs because what they really fear is that the 74 million who voted for President Trump will return for sure in 2022.

Bye-bye, 230

Over the last year, we saw cities burn, police stations destroyed and now an attack on the Capitol.     

What do they have in common?   All of them were planned, executed and shown "live" on social media.  
 
Who can forget people "broadcasting" from top of a burned police car from Minneapolis or texting about marching here or there?   Did you catch all of those photos on Instagram?  Or videos on Twitter?
 
All of these events happened because social media is now a loaded weapon in the hands of a lot of reckless people.   By the way, this is why I dropped Twitter because I wan't learning a thing about anything.  All I saw on Twitter was one group hating the other group.   And regrettably, Twitter's leadership has now decided which group gets to hate and which group doesn't.
 
This is from The Dallas Morning News:   
"As things stand now, Amazon, Apple and Google are making decisions about which social media companies are worthy of existing. Parler may be a pit of dangerous lies, gross conspiracies and open sedition. 
 But if you don’t think Twitter offers up the same material, you haven’t been to Twitter lately. 
 
Why should one company be granted status over another by Big Tech gatekeepers?
So Congress should revisit Section 230 of the 1996 Communications Decency Act.   
 
This is 2021 and not 1996.  It's irresponsible to give social media companies immunity from liability today.   
 
Twitter and Facebook are no longer platforms!  They are now major political players censoring public opinion.

Speak up Mr. Biden!

Leadership is thinking outside the box.  Let's see if Mr. Biden can think outside the box and do something bold.

In a couple of days, Democrats may indeed impeach President Trump again.  Like the first time, it will be a party vote and divide the country.  Unlike the first time, there won't be any witnesses or hearings or due process.  It will be an up and down vote about Trump and nothing more.

Why is Speaker Pelosi on the road to impeachment a week before President Trump leaves town?

Some argue that the President incited a riot but others say that no line was crossed.  My own take is that the President did not tell the marchers to go and break into the Capitol.  99.999% of the 150,000 marchers didn't!   At the same time, President Trump should have stayed away from a march on the day that the Congress was looking at the 2020 vote.

There is only solution here:   President elect Biden should speak up and end this madness.  

So Mr. Biden has 2 options:

1) Say nothing and start his new term with chaos in the US Senate.  In other words, a trial would close the US Senate for a couple of weeks.  What happens to the Cabinet appointments?  Does a President Biden start with departments run by Trump holdovers?  It will be chaos in steroids;

2) Call Speaker Pelosi and Senator Schumer and tell them to stop it.   

Let's hope that we never get to an impeachment trial.  If we do then let's encourage Mr. Biden to put the nation first and tell everyone to get to work on the nation's business.
