Extreme Words from the Right, Gets more aggressive!!

Image
The political climate of the United States is one that at times can be sour and leave people saying interesting things. These aren't just any group, they are people who are supported by the lot that hold the right in high regard and one goes all the way up to the federal level.  What happened: -A congress women around the month of May, compared Democrats to Nazi's.  -On June 24th, a popular figure of the right, Tucker Carlson basically said the U.S. could turn into Rwanda, (particularly the genocide part). He said this after a organization said they wanted him to resign because of his defense of white supremacy. Link (Twitter): pic.twitter.com/Mu2QZ9X35t -The president of a progressive media watchdog group said without former President Trump on the social media a vacuum was created. -A tv host went on news network and said that many people meddled  in the election to stop the former president from winning.  Two of the four people I have quoted saying these things are...

The Press Playing Favorites

 This week on Dragon Ball Z we have a good old fashioned political beef with a fat sprinkle of jealously between Sean Spicer and everyone possible. Background The new president gets elected every 4 years, and within those years there are smaller election for positions within the white house. Most times those positions are filled by people who are usually chosen by the president or who align with their ideals. In this case the position the position we are talking about is the press secretary.  The Now The past Press Secretary during the Trump Administration Sean Spicer has been complaining that the Washington Press treated him poorer that his successor. The new Press Secretary under President Biden's name is Psaki.  Below is the Timeline of what could could have possibly made him feel this way.  1. Sean Spicer and one other person were fired from another position when Biden got into office and there's a possibility that could be a reason.  2. Another reason could...

President Biden Withdraws Candidate

Image
On Thursday September 9th, 2021 President Biden withdrew his pick for the Firearms Agency. Being a president, one of the things you can count on opposition for anything you do because you are always going to offend someone. Just this past week, 9/5-9/11/2021, he's pushing a mandate for all federal employees to get the COVID-19 vaccine. This past week has also been filled with governmental employees (specifically republicans) going against the mandate calling it an "overstepping of his power". There is another group that is going to against the president and that is wonderful NRA, which is a group that we can discuss in a later blogpost. There was a particular person who said that "it is a shameful day for our country", in response to Biden withdrawing his nomination. The NRA was pushing him to get rid of the nominee and I can see why the person quoted that but I dont entirely agree. Kris Brown who is the president of Brady said that its disappointing that its 50...

Donald Trump x Social Media

Image
President of the United States of America is the most prestigious title that a person can hold in this country and with it comes a lot of influence and power. In my 22 years of life never have I ever seen a man in that position use their influence more than our former president Donald J. Trump. Just for background I am not saying he was the president with the most followers ever because former President Obama had over 117 million while the most former President Trump had at most 89 million. At most I am saying he is one of the only (if not the only) president to use his platform to instigate situations that sometimes didn't end well. 1. Voter Fraud This is one the most recent times where the former president used his platform in order to spread misinformation to the public and his following. For some background, the 2020 election was a bit different because of the virus people were unable to go out and vote so instead they sent in mail ballots. This caused a back up in the postal s...
