TRUMP!

 Trump is a demented fool and he has no idea of what he is doing. (Trump didn't know what happened at Pearl Harbor). Trump is dismantling our government and yes some of it really needed to be curtailed. However the damage he is doing will have far reaching consequences. He is putting an end to scientific research, including for cancer and other diseases.  Nader says it best!

From Ralph Nader:

Trump has illegally and impeachably closed the Agency for International Development, fast winding down critical humanitarian aid – medicine, food, clean water, etc. – to millions of impoverished families in poor countries abroad. Tens of thousands have already perished, according to aid officials.

He has illegally and impeachably paralyzed the protector of consumers – the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau – that returned many billions of dollars to consumers from corporate rip-off schemes, mostly from the finance companies. Throwing corporate law and order out the window, Trump is setting records for being soft on corporate crime – ending dozens of underway prosecutions of companies by the Justice Department.

He has illegally and impeachably closed the cabinet-level Department of Education, throwing student aid programs and the status of existing loans into dark holes of chaos.

Across other federal agencies, Trump has closed down crucial scientific programs designed to understand and alert the people to mega-storms and wildfires, infectious diseases, looming pandemics abroad, and expand basic research in medical science for the public’s health.

With his toady EPA Administrator, Lee Zeldin, Trump is chopping our protection against deadly toxic air, water, and soil pollution into pieces. He is closing down the EPA’s celebrated scientific research section, firing people everywhere, and declaring that the EPA has no authority to deal with the oil, gas, and coal fossil fuel emissions causing global warming. Crazily, he has blocked lower-priced solar energy and wind power projects, calling windmills “ugly.” This is just deranged.

FEMA employees have signed a desperate petition to Trump to stop strip-mining the agency, stop slowing its emergency response time, and restore the staff pushed out during the DOGE lawlessness. For their courage, Trump fired or suspended many of these hurricane, flood, and wildfire rescuers, as he does for civil servants who sign other letters and petitions because  they report they are unable to perform their work because of his actions. He has weakened an already weak OSHA and further jeopardized the health and safety of Americans in their workplace.

Trump has reduced successful programs such as Meals on Wheels America, Head Start, and aims to get rid of the Job Corps and AmeriCorps. Again, illegally defying Congressional mandates.

Trump, who eats well, is cutting food stamps for millions of poor Americans. This is hurting desperate families and supplying farmers.

Earlier, Trump got through Congress a law that will cause over 10 million people to lose their Medicaid; nearly five million could lose health care coverage soon when the elimination of subsidies causes prices to skyrocket under Obamacare scheduled by the end of this year. These serious deprivations, sure to cost lives, are what the Congressional Democrats are insisting be reversed before they go along with the omnibus government funding bill. GOP leaders, Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, are resisting. Of course, they have good health insurance paid for by taxpayers.

Trump has shut down diplomacy abroad, replacing it with threats, violence, fantasies, and boastful rhetoric. The skills of the Foreign Service in the State Department are frozen under the arrogant Secretary of State, Netanyahu toady, Marco Rubio.

LOSING OUR RIGHTS!

 Up until the Trump presidency no one could just take away your personal freedom. You did not have to be a citizen to enjoy this freedom, everyone had the right of due process. Under the Trump presidency no one has this freedom any longer. So whether you know it or not, Trump has taken away your basic freedom. You can only hope that the occasion will not arise when you need this protection, for without it you can be imprisoned, deported and yes even executed.

THOUGHT! and AWARENESS!

 Thought has made up most of my living.  If there is such a thing as reality, thought is outside of it. This means that thought cannot know reality. Reality therefore is a direct experience between the mind and what is actual, "reality". Meditation then would be the vehicle to have the experience of reality. This is a bit misleading in that there isn't a self to have the experience. Note that the self arises in thought.

Awareness is another word for meditation. Awareness is being aware that you are aware, again there is no self that is being aware, there is only awareness. This is why thought has made up most of my life, I was not aware of reality.  In not perceiving the actual reality I invented reality, thought created the self and this is a wrong turn. The entirety of mankind has made a wrong turn, this is why we struggle without results. Reality has no need of a "self" and it is this 'self" that is the source of all our problems. The self does not want this to be true, it is a powerful illusion.

Comment of Hedges "Abolishing the First Amendment"

"When the killing of children is seen as justifiable our world is in the throes of a calamitous demise. There is an avalanche of ignorance behind this insidious evil. The goodness in people like Mr. Hedges offers us a ray of hope, in this growing darkness."

TRUMP IS DOING TO OUR COUNTRY WHAT HE DID TO ALL HIS BUSINESSES !

  Trump, if anything, he is consistent. He is literally destroying our Country in the very same way he destroyed all of his Businesses Trump filed for bankruptcy six times showing a loss of 1. 8 billion dollars. Here is a list of businesses that fell into bankruptcy or failure at the direction of Donal Trump. There is of course the six Casinos, Trump University, Trump Airlines, Trump Beverages, Trump the Game, Trump Magazine, Trump Mortgage, Trump Steaks,Trump Travel, Trump Comms ( a phone company perhaps), Trump Tower Tampa, Trump Vodka, Trump Cologne.

Trump has started numerous other businesses while in office, which is a violation of the emoluments clause found in Article one Section 9 Claus 8 of the Constitution. Trump is wreaking havoc on many aspects of our government. He is attacking education, safety programs that keep us safe in areas such as food, clean air, soil and water. He is curtailing research in all matters of health, science and climate.

He causing people to die and if allowed to continue many more people will die on a global scale. Trump is taking away our rights of free speech, our right to protest, while imprisoning those people his thugs have detained or arrested.

He is destroying our economy wreaking havoc on farming, and all types occupations and services.

We simply can not allow him to continue with his total destruction of our way of life. Why can't people see that the division in our country coincides completely with Trumps reign.

THE WONDER OF IT ALL!

  Beauty!

There is a pristine beach where, for eons the sea has thundered ashore just being there is wondrous and soothing, inland from the coast is a forest, a deep mossy woodland where creatures roam and when the human eye takes it in, the mind is stilled. Far south from here, lies a sprawling desert where the quiet beauty can seem harsh but rest assured life thrives and flourishes here. Towering above all this, the majestic peaks stand like guardians, letting their waters flow to nourish what lies far below. This is our home, this is where each and everyone of us, are to live out our lives. This is nature, this is our essence, to be alive is to know that we are not opposed to this we are of this, and its essence stretches to the very edge of the universe. In the natural silence of nature, pulses the energy the love, that brings to fruition all that was, is and ever will be. It is also in the face of every person that walks this wondrous Earth. There is no need for anything beyond this, something produced in the mind that tries to explain this. Everything that exist is infused by a spirit, a primordial energy, always moving always in stillness, mysterious and you cannot be separate from it. The cycle of birth and death are contained with-in the spirit and it is only our thinking that makes a division where none exist. Let go and let it be, if the letting go is just an idea then you haven't let go. Is your love of the beauty just an idea?

THE UNINHABITABLE WORLD

 If global temperatures continue on with the current trend then the planet will become uninhabitable for humans and many other species. As temperatures rise, food production will fall off and the outcome will be mass starvation. Crops that aren't scorched by the blistering sun will be inundated by torrential rains. If there are some sources of food that survive people will kill each other for them. The quest for water will have the same outcome. What is being over looked by many people is the fact that rising global temperatures thus sea level rise are already baked into the planets climate.

The US, Russia or China may ascertain that a first strike killing most of the people on the planet will be their best bet for survival. However, nuclear winter may be an unsurvivable result of this attempt at, "to be the last man standing". 

I do not know if humanity has crossed the point at which survival is no longer possible. It is altogether possible that we will succumb. If there is a chance of surviving then according to the "extinction rebellion" and many scientist, we must act decisively and we must act now. Goggle the "extinction rebellion" and or Roger Hallam. 

The US government and many of the countries corporations are doing nothing to lower carbon emissions, consider that carbon emissions have risen since countries gave their pledges to get carbon emissions under control. The government of the United States along with US corporations have enslaved us, now they are killing us. 

There are places in Africa that have already reached temperatures that make human survival impossible. Countries are running out of water adding millions of people to climate migration. Foods grown under conditions of more carbon in the atmosphere have less protein. The demands humans are placing on the natural world are reducing the natural worlds ability to sustain us. 

One of the main things we have not understood is the very delicate balance of the natural world. I recall the Gia theory that demonstrated that life is a self governing process. Humanity neglected the environment acting as if we were not a part of it. Eight billion people in an industrialized world have never lived in harmony with the nature that produced them. 

In early August of 23, parts of China received nearly 30 inches of rain in a period of five days. The devastation was immense, the devastation included the loss of crops resulting in the predictions of widespread famine. 

Extreme weather of all types is becoming the norm and we are told that this is just the beginning. One can not help but wonder, do the people that are directly responsible for climate change have families? What could possibly be their mind set? The facts though are inescapable the people with the money and our government simply do not care. Is it that they believe it is to late to stop what's coming "the total collapse of human society". That is not for them to decide. 

I find it incredible that people are doubting human activity is effecting the climate. The planet is a closed environmental system and there is carbon in the atmosphere and that carbon has an effect on the weather, climate. Humans have raised the amount of carbon in the atmosphere and that is causing the planet to warm. It is simple science. Think of your car in a closed garage with the motor running equals death. Now understand that the planet is a closed system and hundreds of millions of cars and hundreds of thousands of coal furnaces etc, are filling the system with carbon, it is really quite simple.

I believe things are going to get worse, but I also believe we can stop the worst of what's to come.

5 SHOCKING TRUTHS TESLA SHARED ABOUT DEATH.

 You can find this on YouTube. Here is my comment to the video.

I cannot seem to find the words to express how I am feeling about this. I have reasoned that the default position of the mind is awareness. To be aware that we are aware. In this awareness we intuit what the universe is unfolding. I cannot seem to stay with awareness, the mind churns away and I realize that I am aware of that. Thought's just keep flowing and I think if only I cannot be swept away. That is where I have been stuck for some time. It is intriguing that we are energy and that energy cannot die, and it would take awareness to make us eternal.

A LOVE LOST!

 A LOVE LOST!

So Alluring; Aug. 28, 2020. It seems so long ago and it was only yesterday, that I encountered what was immovable. Even while it was happening it slipped through my fingers with such deep painful regret, I was to hurt to cry and now when there is so little time left now I can. I have found a relief, I had to because I could not live, exist with such pain. I have learned not to be separate from suffering. Still in the back of my mind I venture because even the pain is you. I don't understand this, but it is incredible.
