Build A Footbridge
Dear Editor,
The nightmare is over. With the dawning of a new day, light shines upon the faces of Americans with tears of joy for Biden backers and sadness for those who supported Trump.
Now the real work begins – healing is the starting place to rebuilding relationships with all the people of our country, and it is incumbent upon those who voted for Biden to reach out to those who hold different opinions and are hurting with the loss of their candidate. Footbridges of hope, caring, compassion, and love need to be built, one plank at a time, to reach the hearts of all Americans.
We can do this because we have done it before. As Americans we won our independence over insurmountable odds with a rag tag army of patriots who had a dream and would not let it die. As Americans, we survived a brutal civil war but survived as a nation and moved forward to be one people again. As Americans, the entire country came together to defeat the dictatorial powers of Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany. As Americans, the turmoil of the 1960’s with Vietnam and the Civil Rights Movement caused deep divides that have been overcome with understanding and forgiveness.
Make no mistake, we have a mountain to climb, but with patience, courage and determination, it will happen because of the inherent goodness we the people possess. Let’s begin building those footbridges that will reclaim the best of who we are as Americans. We hold strong core values that embody a sense of decency, a belief in fairness and a hope for a better tomorrow. We can do this. We will do this.

The Woke Pledge Of Allegiance
Dear Editor,
Here is the Pledge of Allegiance for the woke revolt. We pledge allegiance to the algorithms of the Chinese communist party and to the deep state for which it stands, one world power without God and with liberty and justice for no one. Hope you sick America haters find it appealing.

A Glitch Is Still A Glitch
Dear Editor,
In systems thinking there is often more than one cause of an error.
The goal of the vast majority of hardware and software companies around the world is to make a product so easy to use, so intuitive, that the old product manuals are obsolete. They try to make user error extremely small. Most computer programs, not all, send automatic updates without requiring humans to think about installing. Even if a system doesn’t automatically install an update most still have extremely obvious warnings that the system requires an update. The message usually tells you how to update. It used to be that computer messages gave a long list of things to do to update software. Now the vast majority make it so easy all you have to do is click a button on the screen.
This is where the Dominion voting machines come into play. Dominion denies a “glitch” in the machine occurred and blamed human error. There was a glitch. If there wasn’t a glitch the software wouldn’t have needed to be updated. Put another way a human failed to update the system in Antrim County to correct the glitch. If there was no “glitch” an update would not have been required. There were four errors: 1) the glitch in coding that necessitated the update, 2) the difficulty in updating the system or lack of automatic updates, 3) human error that failed to update the machines, and 4) the company failure to warn users of the effects of not updating/public denial of a “glitch.”
The question isn’t whether or not there was a “glitch.” There had to be one. The question should be how many other machines were not updated in time or appropriately? If one human can make this error, fail to update a program, so can others. Why was the “glitch” updated but not communicated to users. Users should have been told that an error requiring an update that miscounted votes was possible. How long was the error in coding present? Have other previous elections been effected?
Politicians and the media are splitting hairs over “glitch” versus human error. The reality is that both may be true. After all humans code the programs, install or fail to install the updates, and fail to warn users of implications of not updating software. The coding failed which required an update that increased chance of human error in updating/not updating. There are enough mistakes to go around.

Hey James, I’m curious if you know that the actual Pledge of Allegiance also doesn’t have God in it?
Sick burn, btw. You got us!
Hey Alan B, can I just ask what your point is? You seem to be just talking into the wind and I’m used to this calling for alarm or asking us to be angry.
Yes, mistakes happen. And, as of this reading, the mistakes (human or otherwise) have been corrected in Antrim County. Thousands of voting districts have counted, recounted, and audited their results. A failed campaign is wasting money (taxpayers’ and their donors’, but not their own) to have things counted again and again, as if suddenly the 6 million plus differential will just disappear. In reality, they are stalling to try to willfully ignore the voice of the voting citizens – lost Michigan by 150,000+ but is hoping a split canvassing board will allow Michigan’s state legislature to ignore the votes of the people they represent; lost Georgia and recounted and still lost Georgia and has promised a “biblical” lawsuit to try to sow doubt while requesting another recount to be paid for by Georgia taxpayers; lost Pennsylvania by 80,000+ and Wisconsin by 20,000+ and only wants to double check and file suits in districts that would help flip the map.
To this failed campaign, it isn’t about getting it right, it’s only about getting the result they wanted – four more years of presidential armor from the civil and criminal suits to come.
Here’s a quick stat, no administration since Nixon has had as many “mistakes” (meaning criminal convictions and prison sentences) than the current administration.
The Party of riots, Antifa, BLM, harvested votes, ad nauseum; and hypocrites like Nancy Pelosi or Gov. Newsom; will bring us hope, caring passion, and love.
My first Presidential Election was Goldwater-Johnson. Over the years, some of my choices were not elected.
But, I’ve always felt that the New Man should be give a chance to show what positive effect he can make on the Country. President Trump never had one days’ honeymoon. Nonetheless, it is upon all of us to give the new man a chance before piling on. No riots or babbling hate-mongers, please.
@alan, please just stop already. It is ALL bs as is every other thing the former president’s supporters have come up with and offered NO substantiated evidence publicly or in court. EVERY law suit has been thrown out, dismissed or withdrawn. Time to move forward to hopefully better times.
Recheck you “facts”. Not EVERY one has been thrown out. Some are still pending.
You really got him there. Guess he won’t be right for a little while but then you’ll have to respect him….
Did you see the good news, the orange man-baby you helped elect in 2016 is finally allowing a transition to occur – and not to a second term. Wooohoooo!
They will be and regardless it won’t make ANY difference. The Giuliani clown car is just about out of gas and enough states have certified results that it is mathematically (horrible world for you guys I know) impossible for him to win. Only way for him to win this election now would be to REALLY steal it and have the electoral college disregard the vote of the people which he tried to do with intimidation and failed in WI. Time to start building whatever conspiracy theories you will be working on for the next 4 years!
Oh snap,you got me…..but what, what’s this?
Pennsylvania judge rules GOP lawsuit challenging new absentee ballot law has ‘likelihood to succeed’
(insert sound of pimp-slap here)
What, what’s this? Wisconsin county recount funded by Trump supporters (for millions of dollars) nets more votes for Biden? #iftheyjuststopcountinghisvotesidwin
Wait, what’s that? Pennsylvania election results are already certified so literally the only way to win Pennsylvania is to blatantly ignore the law? #lawandorderonlysometimes
What, what now? Even if somehow Pennsylvania switched Biden would still have 286 electoral votes and with the election? #270towin #80millionvotesmatter
(insert sound of Alan’s partner crying after he just pimp-slapped someone… because that’s how he sees himself, an entitled violent pimp that just has some sad life)

So Guess Who (MW) explain this
On October 21st 24 pallets of ballots were transferred from NY to PA by tractor trailer where the trailer disappeared from the USPS bulk mail center.
Then all of a sudden thousands of ballots begin appearing in PA, WI, MI, etc.
The estimate is there were between 144,000 and 250,000 ballots on that trailer. And it wasn’t the only one.
Alan, I think you are right. You know, because 154,000,000 votes counted accurately just don’t mean a damn to you. YOU ARE ASKING TO DISENFRANCHISE 154,000,000+ LEGALLY CAST VOTES JUST TO GET THE RESULT YOU WANT.
I imagine in your story, in order for a tractor trailer to get from NY to PA, at some point, it would have to leave the USPS bulk mail center. I don’t know of any other way of transportation that somehow a tractor trailer is both at the point of origin and the destination at the same time, but trucks departing with mail sounds pretty dang normal to me. Perhaps The Blaze, or Q, or one of your other super secret sources has some kind of new space-time manipulator to send their super important messages.
I’m not some FBI agent or person of your ultimate old-white-guy wherewithal to discern the secret conspiracies running this country. I don’t know how you would expect a lowly retarded liberal (unless your clan means something else by the phrase “libtard”) like me to possibly understand the vastness of this.
You were crying on the streets and in the whinny media , when the Clinton Obummer regime went down like a lead balloon. FUNNY wasn’t it……lol
At least now these three ,will just resume where they left off….lying , cheating , stealing , and giving pay back to their media masters of deceptions.
“Let’s all get together and love one another, right now.”
Here comes a million or more new voters for all things socialist , now Biden can also come out of his groundhog hole he was hold up in.
There are a lot of people going around saying they are “woke”. Sadly, they are still very much asleep. They are asleep in their own ignorance of what socialism in its many forms really is. They cannot accept the fact that theirs is a failed philosophy that has enslaved billions, murdered millions, and bankrupted every society it has contaminated.
Think of socialism as government-sanctioned extortion that enslaves all and steals from society’s producers so as to give it away to all the slackers and slouches and other assorted leeches and parasites. These people feel that society owes them a living and that therefore entitles them to a free ride at the expense of everyone else. They claim that socialism equalizes everything. In reality the only equality that has been created is an equality of misery. The next time we have slavery it will not be just blacks–it will be all of us. Also, instead of saying “yessuh, massa” to some old white guy on a plantation, we’ll all be bowing down to a government consisting for the most part of ivory tower elitist control freaks on a bad power trip.
Contaminate being the operative word here, think of socialism as a malignant cancer that has contaminated humanity. The most egregious offenders here are Nazi Germany, the old Soviet Union, and the communist regime that has been in control of mainland China since 1949. Just these three alone have been responsible for the slaughter of well over 150 million innocent men, women, and children to date.
As for bankruptcy, one word–Venezuela! A great patriot of humanity, former British prime minister Margarete Thatcher said it best: “The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people’s money to spend.” The U.S. isn’t far from that now. If Biden proves to be successful in his effort to hijack the election, it will! WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!
You must be quite confused, senile even, Jim. 80,000,000+ people that voted for Biden don’t subscribe to socialism. You seem to be lumping everyone into some extreme philosophical group just because of one clear and conscious choice they made. It’s this mentality, your harmful rhetoric that is shared so vocally, that leaves us completely divided as a nation, as states, and as communities. You’re becoming part of the problem, not part of the solution.
