#TuesdayThoughts Thread 1/ There are a lot of events snowballing at the current time. When this happens, the subtler details tend to be overlooked in favor of the flash & sordid. Yet, those details are the very things that tell us what we have to guard against and what is coming
#TuesdayThoughts 2/History will look at these things & wonder why the people living in that time didn't see it coming. As they say, hindsight is 20/20. Right now is our opportunity to instead have foresight and prevent history from repeating. Yesterday, our president gave us that
#TuesdayThoughts 3/"it's an attack on our country" is what he said
When in reality, it was a legal & duly processed action against someone accused of a crime. It went through the processes required, including being passed off to local authorities to determine the proper action.
#TuesdayThoughts 4/Turn to our history books to see what happens when a country's leader equates a legal action against him as an attack on the country. It inches us closer to authoritarian rule instead of a democratic republic. This is a moment of truth for each & every American
#TuesdayThoughts 5/His power is there because we allow it to be. It is that simple. I'm not advocating violence of any kind. I'm looking to a higher level of power than that. The power of the American public to say no. We won't allow that. The president is supposed to guide this
#TuesdayThoughts 6/country, but the presidency doesn't fuel it. We do. If he attempts to fire, remove, or affect the investigation in any way, we protest. We speak out. Why? Because in this country, no one is above the law.
No one.
