It has really come to this...

Today, May 2nd, 2018, begins like every other since Donald Trump decided to run for president. He tweets, the media reacts, it occupies the headlines until he tweets again. It has become a vicious cycle that has done nothing but exacerbate an already dangerous threat to our democracy.

Yesterday, news broke that the President of the United States ordered his personal attorney and a couple of body guards to steal his medical records from his previous doctor. News also broke, from the mouth of the former doctor, that Trump faked a doctor's note that claimed he was the healthiest person to ever be elected president.

Let's put aside the complete audaciousness of what I wrote above and ask a few questions.


  1. Why did Donald Trump need to fake a doctor's note about his health?
  2. What would the truth reveal?
  3. Why did he order people barge into a medical office to steal his medical records?
  4. Why did Donald Trump use pseudonyms at the doctor?
  5. Was the order to raid the doctor's office legal?
Now let's revisit what he did and pretend for a minute that Trump has always had integrity.

If this action was carried out by a man of good standing (and I say "man" on purpose because women are held to a different standard just for being born female) this would be outrageous. Because it was done by a man that has no integrity, no morals and is drowning in a mess of his own making, it's minimized. 

So I say it again, The President of the United States faked a doctor's note that claimed he was the "healthiest person ever to be elected President."

This story from the doctor comes as rumors swirl about who may have leaked questions to the press for Trump from Mueller. It seems like this leak may push Mueller to subpoena the president.

Remember this, NO ONE is above the law. Not even the President of the United States. If the President is let off the hook for all he has done, what does that mean for law and order?

People will call this post out. They will say, "There was no collusion" or "It's a hoax" or "Witch Hunt!" I assure you, my opinions on Trump come from Trump himself. The things he has said on television, the things he has tweeted, the things he has said to foreign leaders all form my opinion of him.

The People are stronger than the elected government.

Lies

There is nothing I despise more than a lie. Lies, when repeated often enough, can be believed by the person that fabricated them. Never before in our country have we had a president that lies so constantly, with a base that believes him so completely that has a news station to amplify him. It is horrendous, it is dangerous. We need to mobilize, we need to stop this. If not now, when? If not us, who? These children can't speak for themselves. They're minors. Some younger than my three year old. It pains me to think of either of my children in captivity, away from me, with no clear path back to me. How can they do this? How can any government do this? I think of their little faces, their eyes, already filled with fear of being in a new place, feeling solace only from the embrace of their parents and then the mean men take them away and put them in cages. This is traumatic. A senator, I think, Steve King, said that Abortion is the true final separator of child from mot...

Long December

It's weird but I feel like November has been December for three weeks. I don't know why but my body keeps telling me that it's December and it has been. In fact, Thanksgiving feels like it happened weeks ago rather than just one week ago. Maybe it's the fact that I have little kids and they are getting ready for Christmas and are filled with excitement over the prospect of Santa Claus and presents. Or maybe it's because Thanksgiving came a little earlier than usual this year. Whatever it is, it's a weird feeling. The last time something like this happened to me was in October of 2014. After the month ended, I felt like it was still October until well into February of the following year. It truly makes no sense considering time is an invented human concept. Most of our ancient ancestors and nearly all of our animal friends don't give a hoot about time down to the second. Months aren't even real, it's just a thing we do. It feels like it's be...

Craving

Ever since I saw this quote I've been thinking about it. Craving as defined by Merriam-Webster: "A powerful desire for something." So I stopped. Thought. Realized, Buddha is right. When I'm on the train in the morning, I want to get to work. When I'm at my desk, I want to get to the train. When I'm on the train in the evening, I want to get home. ...and repeat. If I stop wanting, what happens? I actually find myself in the moment.  Yesterday, after I voted, I was heading toward the door not realizing there were signs everywhere telling me where the exit was. I didn't even realize there was another door until a policeman pointed to it and an old lady yelled at me that I was going the wrong way. I was embarrassed and felt like everyone was looking at me. Then, I thought of Buddha. If I'm living in the moment, who cares? Yeah, I messed up, things happened, but who cares? So, I put my shoulders back, held my head up high, and...
