Letters: Speech assessed

Will wonders never cease? I usually don’t watch the beginning of the State of the Union speech but this one was an exception. Our president, from the time he was ushered into the House chamber, was an old-time politician until he exited the Chamber. Our young whippersnapper of a president shook hands, talked to everyone and some even got to hug him. What a show!

President Biden was masterful in getting the Republicans to agree with him on several subjects. But he did not energize them to even clap when he mentioned several things they have in the past been so supportive of — most of them even campaigned on.

Why has the Republican Party digressed into such a cultish party with no sense of direction? It is no wonder the true Christian leaders have gotten the message from God that Trump is not a golden calf and have started to shun him!

Political

atrocity

What a political atrocity since almost a century ago: Goody-two-shoes, self-serving elected government leaders sold out and started allocating free everything, e.g., open borders, tax-exempt tax credits, free food, free medical care and hospitalizations, free shelter, free cellphones with apps, free affirmative-action educational programs, Supplemental Security income, diversity, equity and inclusion for themselves, free caregivers, free nursing homes for foreigners, limitless government redistributions for unlawful crossers and asylum seekers, and reparations, while poor Americans work hard to pay for their incredible petulance.

Think about it: There’s reparations and government handouts for all the protesters and never for the real backbone of America — the hardworking abandoned citizens. Enough with the oppressive, fake, huge-profiteering compassion for the haters of America only. Through the years some of our elected political sellouts slowly sneaked these democracy-killing socialist/communist initiatives until these foreigner benefit absorbers have become so brazen they demand more and more for themselves alone, with nothing left for the citizens in great economic need.

The elitist dictator globalists have been empowering people who hate America to gain absolute power for themselves and their own socialist-dictatorship takeover. They’ve become power-seeking, money-hungry greeniacs in an effort to kill everything that has made America great.

We need honest, strong elected leaders to stop this insanity before these dictator globalists and big tech/big media finish the inflationary communist takeover. To the honest government leaders: Keep in mind these evil forces only use “bipartisanship” when they need to finish the debacle, never when they’ve got all the cards and power weapons on their side.

The cruel disdain and one-sided humanitarianism against the people who sacrificed and built America needs to stop, in order to start rebuilding our fading democracy.

The point is, this infamy never affects the elected government leaders, corporations, non-governmental organizations or the wealthy, because they have the wealth and connections to find the tax loopholes and maneuvers to tax-exempt themselves.

We plead with those honest politicians that they need to step up and reverse this infamy. This abandonment of our own is what’s killing America’s freedom and democracy.
