So much of the chaos predicted by Mr. Gregory has been caused by #45 and the band of crooks who work for him. What stands out is the volume of unsettling news that surfaces daily. As Special Counsel Robert Mueller tightens the legal noose around the neck of Paul Manafort, #45’s former Campaign Chairman, one wonders when/if Manafort or other members of #45’s cabal of crooks will “come clean” and relieve the nation of the incessant anxiety of having to reconcile what can reasonably be called TREASON. For those who argue the severity of the word treason, I can only refer to the record of e-mails exchanged between Manafort and one of his employees candidly discussing arrangements to convene a private briefing regarding #45’s campaign for a Russian billionaire with close ties to Vladimir Putin. Such a briefing violated the law and opened speculation that Manafort’s position was being leveraged to establish influence in the White House.
Rather than focusing national attention on the devastation and recovery from Hurricanes Harvey, Irma and Maria, #45 attempts to divert and mire our attention in the ridiculous claim that President Obama and Secretary Clinton bare the blame for the continuing nuclear threat from North Korea. Rather than affirming scientific research proving human involvement in global warming and the growing intensity and impact of major storms, #45’s administration number among the deniers.
I once read a book that spoke of a 1,000 people who made America great. The list did not include #45, but Dick Gregory’s name was there. I will never forget his impact. He lived his life with honesty and character. He lived for the betterment of humanity and never stopped encouraging us to work to end the chaos in our lives. He fought the good fight. He kept the faith and finished his course.
