TheVoiceOfJoyce It’s pretty clear, Donald Trump shouldn’t be President. His temperament is dragging all Americans into a War that’s escalating and no, “we don’t need to save face”. That’s the phrase that’s started Vietnam and so many other Wars, that ended with us losing face, and worse , American Soldiers. Trump must stop Putin from fighting against us, while Trump makes Russia the winner in this War. Where are our Patriots? Is there no one willing to stand up to Trump? Is it all about money and power? I do hope the ships heading into the Iranian War have a strategy to open the Strait of Hormuz. Now, only Russian ships are traversing the Strait and making money off their oil, it makes my blood boil. What about you?

Every newsletter is recounting Trump’s go it alone policy. His insults have alienated all our allies. His counter terrorism chief, resigned. That’s good, but the antisemite shouldn’t have been appointed. … More TheVoiceOfJoyce It’s pretty clear, Donald Trump shouldn’t be President.

TheVoiceOfJoyce Ever wonder how the Federal Government splits up our Tax Revenue? They divide it among 91,000 entities. There’s more data out from USAFACTS. Canada is our main supplier of oil and gas and Mexico 2 nd. And our States aren’t as partisan as we’re made to believe.

TheVoiceOfJoyce No wonder the Department of Defense is no longer nimble and innovative. It’s bloated by self enrichment and has 5 major contractors, Trump donors and Jared Kushner making a fortune off our new Middle Eastern allies. Meanwhile, defense is spending millions on luxuries and over $1Billion a day/conservative estimate. Who else is profiting from Trump’s War? The oil companies who gave Trump a Billion and Trump’s best Bud, Putin, made $6.9 Billion in a week? While Government decides to hold back all Medicaid funding for Minnesota? All this cronyism is illegal, the declaration of War is illegal and enumerating Putin must be illegal? Is this the Government you voted for?

The Dept of Defense is bloated and behind the times. It supports a short list of Billionaires and Trump family members plus Trump’s War with Iran, now provides capital to Putin and the oil industry, who gave Trump $1 Billion? … More TheVoiceOfJoyce No wonder the Department of Defense is no longer nimble and innovative.

TheVoiceOfJoyce A love letter from Heather Cox Richardson to the State of Maine, celebrating statehood today. When Maine separated from Massachusetts, it was a Northern abolitionist state and as its famous residents spread westward, they joined with Abraham Lincoln and founded the Republican Party to counter the influence of the reigning Oligarchy. We’ve seen oligarchs establish themselves on American soil, believing they’re vision is better then the people’s, because they are better than US. Unfortunately, it took the civil war to defeat the first Oligarchs. They were defeated and Democracy reemerged. Just like today, we have a different oligarch class and they , too, will be defeated and we’ll have a stronger more cohesive nation!

TheVoiceOfJoyce Where is the GOP Congressional Leadership putting an end to Trump’s War? Do we have any skilled diplomats ready to negotiate with the Iranians. It seems War could have been avoided and letting Russia profit from oil , after divulging our assets in the Middle East to Iran, is a treasonous mistake. Trump may have an unholy alliance with Putin, but American policy need not be skewed to Putin’s benefit. Can’t anyone control Trump and his instincts? Why are we extending the War with Iran? They’ve stated , if we stop, they’ll stop. Send someone competent to end the carnage. We don’t need propaganda, we need facts and transparency.

We’re at War because Whitkoff and Kushner aren’t diplomats & not capable of negotiating with the Iranians.

TheVoiceOfJoyce We’re at War against Iran and the Billionaires profiting from tax breaks and government programs and they’re going to continue to stay in power, by funding GOP candidates perpetuating their wealth. They don’t care Trump took us to war, part of their platform is defunding our Social Safety Net. They’re insulated from Trump’s policy errors and will prop up his regime, to achieve more benefits. Our Goal must be to stop their money, influence and corruption and install Congressional legislators who represent US.

TheVoiceOfJoyce Trump’s hyperbole and refusal to acknowledge and take responsibility for his actions means his War with Iran is without end. The US definitely hit the girls school in Iran. He should make apologies and perhaps, Iran would consider negotiations. Twice he’s offered to sit down and resume talks and he’s been rebuffed. Meanwhile, Iran is fighting till we’re disabled and broke. We have 150 wounded soldiers. Many with head injuries and the army does not treat those soldiers well. There’s little support for soldiers with head trauma or injuries. How do we end this War? Trump can’t. Not sure Israel will? Who can negotiate a Peace and an agreement bringing sanity back to our Country and World?

TheVoiceOfJoyce Absolutely no regime change. We’ve seen the enormous waste of lives in Vietnam, Iraq & Afghanistan. We accomplished nothing and lost 10,000’s of soldiers lives and accomplished nothing. Large scale regime change is not possible in Iran. Their government is structured with many individuals involved in the selection of their President. The American people need a full open debate on the necessity of entering a war, already aided by China & Russia? There’s another question to be asked? Why are we lifting any Russion oil sanctions and why aren’t we using impounded Russian funds to help the Ukrainians. Too much money spent by Defense with no accountability and too much money going to cronies to silence the Republican Congress? No more silence, if Trump wants to expand his war of Choice.

Trump’s closed door sessions with select Armed Services Committee members must expand to the full Congress and justify before the need for Iranian Regime Change.
