Election Integrity

John Muryell

The upcoming 2024 election is being closely watched due to the significant interference of the MAGA movement led by Donald Trump and the Republican National Convention. This movement, which has a strong base and considerable political clout, could potentially harm the election results. There are concerns about the fairness of the election process in Georgia, particularly regarding the actions of the election board. The Georgia election board, including individuals with a history of supporting Trump, has called for a manual recount of all ballots. The board’s composition, with 3 Trump-friendly Republicans and 2 Democrats, has raised significant concerns about potential … Continue reading Election Integrity

Trump Tariffs

John Muryell

In a recent statement, Newsweek claimed that tariffs are a lifeline to the middle class, but this is nothing more than right-wing propaganda. When businesses import goods from other countries, they pay tariffs. These tariffs are then shifted to the people of our country, resulting in higher prices for goods. Businesses do this to preserve their profit margins and transfer the tariff costs to consumers. However, I would agree with https://www.brookings.edu/articles/did-trumps-tariffs-benefit-american-workers-and-national-security/ Multiple studies suggest this is not the case: the cost of tariffs has been borne almost entirely by American households and American firms, not foreign exporters. This has a … Continue reading Trump Tariffs

Trump’s and His The Delusion of Grandeur

John Muryell

Since this Country was founded every four years, a peaceful change of the presidency occurred until Donald Trump came along, who continuously yelled that everything was rigged against him. This is getting old. The only president who yelled rigged out 45 presidents and over 200 years of rule. Donald Trump is nothing more than a lying, good-for-nothing spoiled brat who is nothing more than a punk and a bully. Trump thinks everything revolves around him. The only words this coward and bully said: “Is it? It’s rigged.”As I endure Trump’s incessant complaints, I am struck by the profound lack of … Continue reading Trump’s and His The Delusion of Grandeur

Vote Suppressing

John Muryell

Trump and Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, are once again attempting to suppress the vote by linking government funding to a bill aimed at addressing immigration. They hope to blame immigration for a possible defeat of Donald Trump in the upcoming election. The Speaker initiated a plan at the start of the month to pressure other members of the Republican party using the Saved Act, but it lacks support. The SAVE Act, which aims to prevent non-citizens from voting in federal elections, seems unnecessary as non-citizens rarely attempt to vote due to the potential consequences. The Republican party also … Continue reading Vote Suppressing

Donald Trump And The Police.

John Muryell

Imagine this: Donald Trump wins the 2024 presidential election and implements Project 2025 upon taking office in January. This project led to dismantling the United States Constitution and activating the Insurrection Act of 1807, which effectively granted Trump the powers of a lifelong dictator. This scenario requires careful consideration due to its far-reaching implications. Among the potential consequences is the unchecked authority of the police force. Under this regime, the police would wield immense power granted by the Trump administration. They could conduct raids, make arbitrary arrests, and fabricate charges, mainly targeting minority groups. This unchecked power would result in … Continue reading Donald Trump And The Police.
