GROUPTHINK MENTALITY

There is an ole adage: “the road to hell is paved with good intentions”. The Depart- ment of Government Efficien- cy (DOGE) serves as a prime example. Cutting waste and fraud in government opera- tions is an excellent worthy goal. However, the method of achievement is the question of questions, because we all know that Trump is not a fiscal conservative. Six bank- ruptcies stand as substantial empirical evidence. Trump loves to spend the money of other people. In fact, Presi- dent Donald J. Trump pre- fers money over people, and we all know: “He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves abundance with its income. This too is vanity.” (Ecclesias- tes 5: 10). President Trump in- variably will position personal interests above national in- terests. Every workday in the week, and twice on Sundays, because he has absolutely no God conscience. Question: did President Trump and his family attend Sunday church services during his first term? During one public appear- ance, President Trump was seen holding a Bible upside- down in front of a church while decrying issues related to civil protests and the right to peacefully assemble. Sadly, Trump is recruiting the exact same governing mentality as Cabinet Secretaries and Department Officials.

Pam Bondi, the newly confirmed Attorney General, pledged to execute, defend, and prose- cute with objectivity and fair- ness during her confirmation hearing. Immediately, after Justice Clarence Thomas administered the constitutional oath of office, Bondi began to enact Trump’s revenge programmatic agenda. The ceremonial symbolism itself was revelatory, because Justice Thomas is not lawfully credit- able. Every American should know by now that it is absolutely nothing for a MAGA Republican to lie, break the law, and refuse to acknowledge that lying is the beginning of sin, societal confusion and socio-economic discord. Lest we, never forget, the devil told Eve the first lie, and since that time, it’s been hell on earth rather than peace.

President Trump has assembled a White Privilege Governing Cult; unlike none other ever seen in modern times. At least, George Wallace was honest with himself when he stated after being defeated the first-time in the Governor’s race in Alabama: “I really do not believe what I am saying. I am only saying what I am saying to get elected. Initially, when I lost the Governor’s race, I got “Out-Niggered” by my opponent”. On the other hand, President Trump has assembled a governing body of true White Supremacy believers. One of Elon Musk’s twenty- three-year-old “DOGE” officials is an open public racist, not an undercover racist. His embarrassing comments and behavior led to his public dismissal.

October 16, 2023, HOUSTON, TX – Congressional Candidate Amanda Edwards has raised over $1 million in less than 4 months, a substantial sum that helps bolster the frontrunner status of the former At-Large Houston City Council Member in her bid for U.S. Congress. Edwards raised over $433,000 in Q3 of 2023. This strong Q3 report expands on a successful Q2 where Edwards announced just 11 days after declaring her candidacy that she had raised over $600,000. With over $829,000 in cash-on-hand at the end of the September 30th financial reporting period, Edwards proves again that she is the clear frontrunner in the race. “I am beyond grateful for the strong outpouring of support that will help me to win this race and serve the incredible people of the 18th Congressional District,” said Edwards. “We are at a critical juncture in our nation’s trajectory, and we need to send servant leaders to Congress who can deliver the results the community deserves. The strong support from our supporters will help us to cultivate an 18th Congressional District where everyone in it can thrive.” Edwards said. “Amanda understands the challenges that the hard-working folks of the 18th Congressional District face because she has never lost sight of who she is or where she comes from; she was born and raised right here in the 18th Congressional District of Houston,” said Kathryn McNiel, spokesperson for Edwards’ campaign. Edwards has been endorsed by Higher Heights PAC, Collective PAC, Krimson PAC, and the Brady PAC. She has also been supported by Beto O’Rourke, among many others. About Amanda: Amanda is a native Houstonian, attorney and former At-Large Houston City Council Member. Amanda is a graduate of Eisenhower High School in Aldine ISD.

As September 13th rolls around, we extend our warmest birthday wishes to the creative powerhouse, Tyler Perry, a man whose indomitable spirit and groundbreaking work have left an indelible mark on the world of entertainment. With his multifaceted talents as an actor, playwright, screenwriter, producer, and director, Tyler Perry has not only entertained but also inspired audiences worldwide, particularly within the African-American community, where his influence and role have been nothing short of powerful. Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1969, Tyler Perry’s journey to stardom was a path riddled with adversity. Raised in a turbulent household, he found refuge in writing, using it as a therapeutic outlet. This period of introspection gave rise to one of his most iconic creations, Madea, a vivacious, no-nonsense grandmother who would later become a beloved figure in Perry’s works, offering a unique blend of humor and profound life lessons. Despite facing numerous challenges, including rejection and financial struggles, Perry’s determination and unwavering belief in his abilities propelled him forward. In 1992, he staged his first play, “I Know I’ve Been Changed,” which, although met with limited success, was a pivotal moment in his career. Unfazed by initial setbacks, Perry continued to hone his craft, and by 1998, he had successfully produced a string of stage plays that showcased his storytelling prowess.
