REALITIES
By Martin Farrell — Thursday, May 30th, 2024
A short response to Kelly Scoles’ letter: Hi Kelly, Once again, reading your letter this week is like taking another trip through the looking glass. A popular word in political discourse these days, taken from psychology, is “projection”, meaning that side “A” accuses side “B” of doing exactly what side “A is doing. Projection is a heavy duty lie which activates the tactics of untruth. Republicans here are being accused by Democrats of activities Democrats thrive upon. This is an unconscionable disregard for the truth, a devious tactic favored by the Democratic Party to fool their naïve members and satisfy their Deep State. Other projections: No. 2, “…perpetual efforts to instill…chaos into American life.” Trump seeks exactly the opposite. No. 2, law and order, clean-out corruption in the AG’s office; No. 3, order: secure the border and deport 10-million dangerous illegal aliens; and No. 4, strong national defense, he had Afghanistan secured. “Trump made laughably false conspiracy claim…on warrant for ‘illegally’ hiding national security documents at Mar-a-Lago authorized Trump’s assassination.” Hyperbole, but: “a motion to suppress evidence seized during the FBI’s August 2022 raid of Mar-a-Lago revealed shocking new details about the bureau’s plans to use deadly force and even engage the former president and his security detail that day [Secret Service] if necessary. This document is just one of many court filings recently ordered unsealed by Judge Aileen Cannon.” As a president, Donald J. Trump had authority to declassify and retain government documents. Biden had stolen the documents. Had no authority to obtain or retain them. Projection No. 5, Ridiculing Trump’s appeal to Supreme Court on issue of absolute immunity. It is a case of first impression and uniquely important to presidential governance. Otherwise, A president could be sued or criminally charged for such things as surrendering $85 billion in military arms to the Taliban and pulling all military protection out before civilians. You complain that “Logic, consistency, and truth are optional” to a Trump presidency, yet your last paragraph betrays this entire brass band of fatal, illogical Projections. My ultimate worry: Without God we don’t have a chance, BUT: “Some scientists seriously believe we could live forever by the 2030s. Here's what you need to know about the 'longevity escape velocity' theory.” Story by hbrueck@businessinsider.com (Hilary Brueck). These thoughts are typical of liberal Democratic Party strategists. Like the foregoing Projections, they are, in a word, CRAZY! (Note) Kelly: Our souls live forever in eternity, and our bodies will catch up - in Heaven or Hell. |
