Truth

The truth is about the truth, the simple truth, the honest truth, the complete truth. The truth is the truth and nothing but the truth. America, have we just said forget the truth if it does not always matter? Are we accepting these lies, and now we don’t know right from wrong? Whatever the truth is, it should be fact, not an alternative fact, not some conspiracy made up an unbelievable lie that is repeated over and over. People have to be accountable politicians have to be primarily responsible for their actions. They can’t be boldface liars and disseminators of racist rhetoric, hate, and division.

This is not entertainment. Please pay attention to the message. We have to beat back the madness. Please Pay Attention to Voting rights. Evil forces are playing games because there is no other way they can win. We have an American political party that has gone rogue and lost its way and backbone trying to destroy our democracy. Wake Up! People who vote Republican, you have to realize that your leadership of the Republican Party has lost its way there on a path that is anti-democratic anti-democracy. Every last one of you knows it’s wrong too. Follow the truth. That’s where Freedom Rings.

American sports

The reason I love sports and hate politics is sports are competition, and fun. It’s physical, and the most important thing is they have rules, they have regulations, they have structure, they have order; the organization is the key and so simple.

The first rule of sports is to follow the rules; the second rule of sports is to follow the rules, don’t break the rules, and don’t cheat. We have referees and umpires calling the game, and everyone can see what they’re doing. They regulated it all works.

Now, on the other hand, why I hate politics because there are no actual rules, and the rules They have people flout and break them; there is less order, and there is chaos. The people who are supposed to make the rules, the Congress and the Senate, are now breaking the rules. They lie and deceive the people.

We look to them to govern. How can they do this when they don’t follow the rules or always looking to subvert them? One party, the Republican Party, has said to forget the rules and completely disregard Parliamentary Procedure and gone rogue that, ran up to an insurrection against American democracy led by Trump. He has this cult-like control over the Republican Senate and Congress.

Actually, American sports is America’s strongest institution. It won’t be denied it has the foundation and the force all races and people involved another place where the races truly collide sports and entertainment, kids women men they all do it it’s universal one of the keys ironically to sports is ran by wealthy white men professional sports highly vested the money in professional sports is astronomical. Now they have legal betting across the league throw that in American sports on the professional and the collegiate level are the most organized from beginning to end, from soup to nuts.

A good example is looking at how they handled the pandemic. They stuck the NBA in a bubble and made it work, played in an empty Gym’s, successfully pulled off playoffs and a championship they, made it work under rules and regulations, organized testing and enforcement, took on the pandemic head-on, and are succeeding with the organization following the medical rules science and the CDC with the cooperation of the players and the players union they make it work operating successfully in the pandemic that’s the power of organized sports.

NFL football is the same. They gave the players the protocol for vaccinated and unvaccinated set up testing consistently even in all sports college high school to play you have to follow the rules and on all these levels they do have the control that’s how you fight a pandemic by all working together by all following the same rules sports Shows it does work.

This is where the fourth estate comes into play. You can’t say fake news about sports. There are many, many pundits and shows built all statistics and facts wherein politics you have many unreliable sources you have Fox News Facebook’s Newsmax and a whole slew of right-wing purveyors of deceit youtube, etc. you can’t always claim fake news sports operate on facts.

The sports press police sports. There are many pundits, reporters, and journalists writers who cover sports there are analytics involved in all kinds of sports statistics, all driven by numbers that part you can easily access, and in sports also, the fourth estate is key they always tell you what’s going on the facts are visible the sources are reliable the transparency is to the extreme is always the truth.

Strong organization following the rules where the rules police the sports, and the most obvious thing is you get to watch it live with your own eyes. Your eyes are the witness, and they got replays to boot you can watch over and over, and you can’t cheat, can’t lie. American sports is one of the strongest institutions in America. Its global sports are played all over the world, and the ironic thing is a lot of
