Since hes not making weapons hes not saying other countries in that line of work so i really dont see it as a bad thing that a billionaire became president of the united states. My name is brian field some 47 years old im from washington d. C. And i will going to the Grocery Store comparing whatever is going on right now in the country with a dish. What would you call it and what other ingredients take. Not nothing edible its not edible whatever it is its nothing that we that that we want to eat. Well defeat donald trump with a few. Little items theres no real theres no choice. Definitely was he was one of my least favorite of all the candidates but and before covert i thought he was one of the least electable but actually now hes. Now i go i think i think by thats going to win i think the country has just had it like right theres people who voted for trump but they know hes a moron. Ad which was fine until the world fell apart but theres enough of the electorate who who are are on board with with troops but not now in the middle of a pandemic when hes telling people to you know inhalable each shouldnt and i suppose it is just clear that he is a war ive always been a fan a troll i knew who he was when i was 13 or 14 years old and wanted to be photographed next to his building were back then well i dont have any clear competitive options theres no one that has a campaign anywhere close to. And you will i mean by no weighed by who owns old man hes doesnt have the energy of a trump and can barely string his sons and together our governments ability to respond effectively has been undermined fire hollowing out our agencies and disparagement of science. To drive a Global Response to dramatically dramatic are going to crush by the damage trump has done to our credibility and our relationships around the world. And he was Valerie Durham i am a conference or actor for. The conference out in las vegas that happens every year and im also a dancer. I live outside of washington d. C. Talking about the election just saying its been years now since i felt like the 4th of july dependence Day Celebration is actually a celebration of. I prefer to wear black and stick in stead of red white and blue because i feel like weve gotten off track from. Where we are need to be in terms of freedom. So when im looking at this years president ial the 2 main president ial choices and frankly quite horrified. I feel like what is wrong with us as american citizens and i hate to be blunt about the spite we have a grabber and a pedophile. We have a bombastic wind bag and a bumbling fool who has lied and plagiarized prison tire career and someone else who has bankrupted and corrupted his entire career cheater that theyre both liars and cheats theyre both old white men who are just about themselves and i think thats really cathartic that the one of the 2 of them is going to be president i fostered 0 inspiration to me in the future of this country its terrifying yeah yeah. Yeah i guess. People are pretty quick to be judging these days they dont really hear people and you sit there on friend but more of a blog and you know especially on social media i was friends because i support in trying to help people and friends break up with. Relationships i was a. Second wife. She can handle it. She and i divorced because donald trump was a lot of the president and i voted for him and she couldnt stand for. Ok because i would vote for a republican i would vote for anyone who is not evil and has half a brain. I feel like the 2 party system is incredibly detrimental to the health of our democracy personally im a libertarian identifies a libertarian im a member of Maryland Libertarian Party and i see how the 2 parties have become so rancor and so power hungry equally on both sides they just want power and you see our leaders not doing not working together not trying to find solutions because they just want power so they want to blame the other side and try to get political clouds. And i think this is a huge problem and they actually feed into each other but over the week the democrats held the darkest. Convention in American History they added to that how we have a Corporate Culture that has superseded the idea of true free market capitalism and its become crony corporatism where these large corporations. Tap into the growth of power that we have seen in government our government supposed to be a limited government based on Constitutional Rights and limited powers and we have only seen the burgeoning of governmental power and as a result you have businesses corporations that feel like they have to lobby in order to get favor with these government officials leaders politicians bureaucrats who have so much power that freedom of all americans so under attack regardless of race religion or creed. Being on the rise to all of. So it gets a little thick through here the 1st perjury i watch for briars and stuff. Theres. A few for this American Flag here to remind myself that these gun rights are an american right and firing ranges open guns has been one of my more recent hobbies i got my handgun permit from the state of maryland at the beginning of 2020. So yeah it was like january permanent february 1st. March 2nd a girl 3rd may 4th so im just taking advantage of the one gun a month law well when i lost my job in june so there was no june. I think if the police get defunded too much it will have an adverse consequence on crime and crime and very well. Thats the reason i have a gun from what i understand these gun sales are at record high right now. After these riots and. The virus shut. People are feeling insecure and me when i take their security into their own hands and thats what getting a firearm for years for personal defense means. That i believe that freedom of speech is energetic i believe our freedom by. I believe our freedom to peacefully assemble is under attack our freedom to move about with our Civil Liberties is under attack i mean we can go through the whole list ever since 911 in the name of counterterrorism the liberty of all people has been under attack. I think that my great great great great great great great great grandfather benjamin franklin. Would be. Very discouraged 5 the state of the country at this point i feel like we are victims of our own success and we feel entitled to a lot of things and willing to give up the rights that we have. You know. My ancestors did trainings my bacon proud to have probably so that they can deal with all the things that were being shouted at them while i do my joint training looks like the only difference is one by one so as we sit back trying to project im really honored we could not use violence and yet thats exactly what you all her parents do but black lives matter and it is definitely going to have an effect on. The outcome of the election whether that helps or hurts donald trump is why we have elections weve got to go through the process and find out you know polls are accurate people are always forthright with their answers you have to go through the election the find out. A lot of people are concerned about lawlessness and taking out these bad shoes without the proper procedure and legal means you know people are sometimes getting hurt when the statue falls over you know thats not the right way to take a statue people see a general atmosphere of lawlessness if thats happening all over the country in every major town that could very well help the donaldson thanks i dont know. What the demick know so you know blood is just flying to nationalities. As a. Pizza. Commentary this is it is sometimes. We can do better we should be. Everyone is contributing way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created with the response has been much so many good people are helping us. It makes us feel very proud that we are in it together. As the u. S. Economy was booming growing numbers of people were made homeless. You can work 40 hours in a week and still not have enough to get housing everybody believes america still is the land of opportunity the reality of it is that were not financially equality and im not comfortable announcing a living minimum wage give many people no choice. Thats been a problem with the city and always turn around and told me stay away i dont hold this. Its worth it if there is no answer because yes that requires resources the most vulnerable were abandoned on the streets to become the invisible clubs. And i will also apologize for the fact that i will never understand the black experience in this country i will not i cant that is the fact he. Writes im sorry thats just a fear of what i could say i am trying to understand the black experience in this country im trying to spread that i understand. That some people are not you are careless to change your people so we need your support because we do we need you to tell your kids what they are kids we need you to tell their kids their kids if youre still here early to tell their kids to get. Your kids to tell their kids you know keep going at this and they want you so we will have done you know i was growing up and in the eightys we had gone through the Civil Rights Era and it was being the normalized like youre not youre should not be racist and you know back in the fiftys there was crazy stuff with normalized. Level stuff so just as just as a graph. Towards towards nonwhites was being sort of the you normalized in the last few decades aggression towards whites has been normalize so people some people on the left or right. The people who sort of support this you know will try to make it like some sort of like historical balance like wow you know you cant compare you know you know some theyd aggression nowadays versus hundreds of years of of imperialism and rape and murder and torture no of course you can thats not thats not the point of point is we want to move forward and we want to live in a society where everyone is valued as a human being and this sort of anti white tribalism which is normalized its not moving us forward towards that and its creating a backlash. Racist can be any color theres black racists theres white races there is. Race and i went to a mostly black high school and i remember getting stones thrown that my head by race is. That has happened like its not just point the racism these will take someones heart turns it against their own then. Theres a lot of chaos and conflict and theres whatever there was a cohesion way back in time even if it was of. A cohesion that had. Evil inside of it and now its all blown apart and were trying to find a way to come together. The 2 things i think are the most important things to fix are making education fully subsidized and ending the drug war. Supposedly every year theres 100000000000. 00 underground economy for people boarded the poverty a lot of them look to that 100000000000. 00 economy as their way to make money that needs to in those people need to be given an opportunity to see a future for themselves in the above board economy and in be able to get education and training to be part of that. But the problem with Student Loans is that they make them very easy to get at all so you couple that with this push that Everyone Needs to get a College Degree you finish high school and you automatically go to college that white collar you know training this is the only worthwhile career ok thats hogwash and people should be going to Vocational School and you know different conservatories are just going off and working and pursuing their own ambitions but when you push people to go to college and then you give them this mechanism to take on massive amounts of debt this is why weve seen this dramatic rise in tuition costs because as soon as you disincentive eyes your concern about costs then that incentivizes these academic institutions to raise their rates theres no pressure because youre not actually paying youre just taking on the step with its expectation that youre going to pay it back over time i think that would probably be. A good use of tax care payer money from scholarships. And ability but you dont want to. Send good money after a bad problem when its just not going to help not everyone can benefit from a College Education not everyones cut out for that kind of school and we shouldnt send people that arent ready for college i dont think everyone deserves a College Education for free and thats me and my dad and my mom and my sister were on a camping trip. Heres a picture from. My grandmother on my. My fathers mother. And the idea of the American Dream for a while knowledge without anyone. You know any family or any place. They work hard to. Have a. Stable home and raise a family and accumulate. Wealth you know what i mean well still just enough to be stable and own their own home and. I dont care if their children sheeple i hear on t. V. Or on the internet who studies which claim. Generation is the 1st american generation in the us how long that is going to be economically worse off than their parents for which i guess modern American History is not. You know its interesting how i was a parent started with nothing. Backgrounds where they didnt have a lot to begin with except their own brain and they really have. Started a business. They were able my dad went to graduate school my mom went to graduate school they have. Really succeeded and i feel like their generation was the last generation where that was more ubiquitous that people. Really come from nothing and i feel like folks who are born in america now its much more difficult to live that American Dream because the expectations are so much higher going to college is incredibly expensive and its not its almost not optional its like you have to go to college and you have to amass this none of this massive amount of debt. I think housing is so much more expensive so if you buy a house the property taxes are super high all of the liabilities that are involved the costs that are involved the idea of being able to take care of yourself. On especially on a one person income its just not possible anymore so everybodys working having to work over time this picture was taken before youngest sister was born but as you can see we were. Nuclear family or the country. The same or a little diminished. From. And francis on family values you know its like now you choose your family you know you your friends or your family and your real family like you know people you argue politics with and you dont really care about theyre like the enemy. People people. Get a strange from their family their family values are downhill right now. I should put you know good at it that would happen. Did you do you do it or i did those well. Whats the 3rd part 3rd part. Of my back my backyard. My backyard my backyard pool my back here mom thats very true you know we have a debt problem in this country. I dont even think we have a Strong Enough word for the level of immorality that our leaders have gotten us into this mess and we are so in debt to other countries in this world were so in debt to ourselves and if we have any kind of find significant financial crisis and weve gotten there close with the 20008 i will and a few of these other things that we cannot keep this boat afloat and i think this great empire that we have created because of this massive amount of debt is. One crisis away just one set of domino effects away from a scene of depression that weve never seen before. So i started thinking about food in the. After september 11th. 2001 the terrorism attacks on our country. And a lot of people are people sick it is now because of the go dude 19 thing thats another good reason things just seem very uncertain these days you know the traditions of the past are no longer. For a huge number of americans are flocking to the this insane can spirity theory whether its like or whether its q anon which claims that the world is run by say 10 eyck pedophiles who drink the blood of children to get a drug called adrenal. And that these say tenet profiles i happen to be hollywood elites and democratic politicians and that somehow they have so much power. That the combined forces of the Us Government and the f. B. I. And the army cant touch that. Were added impossible point ive never ive been following politics since i was a child and now lives in cities like this has gotten to a point where people are so divided in their camps that they are more willing to believe insanity about sate panic reptilian pedophiles with a mood base then they are trying to compromise when they try to listen to their opponents in light understand where other people are coming from. Secure to 24. 00 the reptilians manipulate humanity from the mood and also of underground bases on earth in mars. Its right there. Do your research. As i mentioned before the American People have become used to success and they dont really want to give anything up to what it really requires is for all of us to really challenge our beliefs of whats essential and whats not essential who defines what century. And are you willing to say foreign aid is no longer essential are you willing to say welfare is no longer essential and he willing to say Social Security is no longer essential how much are you willing to go down to the bone in order to fix the fact that we just said lets just print money lets just borrow money. Pushing that rock that day of reckoning down the road how much are we really willing to understand the danger and i dont think people really want to think about that you know. They want to. Really concentrate on the realness of life. Coming. Up though and doesnt say how long that the catalyst of all the. People going to want to make out what why did why did not. All of the. Media people prove it but there are also friends of the us are still so but the still beautiful thing to do something to see. The charm for sure. They value was that it was a simple cell phone and i was with them one though that you know were going to have. It remains unclear who will be the occupant in the white house this january what can be easily predicted is the state of the economy for tens of millions of citizens it appears what is called the recovery is permanently dividing the country into house and have nots and this seems to be acceptable for those who are outside. Nuclear become a battleground in the us in vermont people are demanding the shutdown of a local plant for my yankee is right now my focus because its a very dangerous oh no claire power plant the owner. Attempting to run the reactor beyond its operational limits this case just sort of puts a magnifying glass wheres the power in this country wheres it going is it moving more towards corporate interests or is it more in the idea of a traditional participatory democracy is your power lie with the people this case demonstrates that struggle in very real ways. A struggle. And. Nothing but an excuse for sanctions russia reacts to news that the Global Chemical weapons watchdog has confirmed germanys findings of prominent kremlin critic alexina was poisoned with. Its purpose is obvious denigrate russia with unsubstantiated accusations and thereby create a far fetched reason for introducing another tranche of sanctions against our country. Meanwhile the former a p c w chief is barred from speaking at the Un Security Council about a controversial probe into an alleged chemical attack in syria 2 years ago.
