TheVoiceOfJoyce Trump is pursuing an illegal War. After 60 days, the President must seek Constitutional agreement to continue the War with Iran. Since he’s not bringing the military home, we’re at War. This War must be costing us close to a Trillion Dollars. If you care how your money is spent, demand your Congressional Representatives have a debate about our continued presence in the strait of Hormuz. Hold Trump accountable for an explanation of goals and deadlines.

TheVoiceOfJoyce With the completion of the Warner Brothers, Discovery merger, the Ellison’s have, CBS, CNN, HBO, Comedy Central and TikTok. The result, wealth and media is concentrated in too few Oligarchs and the results are not good for US. When I asked to boost my Videos on TikTok, not only was I told I don’t qualify, because my content is political, the algorithm suppressed my views? I appealed and finally a few hundred are viewing my content daily. Is it still suppressed? Not sure. The consequences of going against the Ellison’s, is you’ll lose viewership in America. They have too much power and control over our Speech and News. We can stop them, not with Trump President or the Republican’s in Congress. That’s why we need 100% turnout for the midterm elections. We the People must take back control of our government, Rights and economy! We can do it!

The Ellison’s now own CBS, CNN, Comedy Central, TikTok. Their power to censor our speech and news is enormous. Worse, there will be layoffs. Our only recourse is Voting and taking back our Government & Democracy.

TheVoiceOfJoyce Trump’s mood reflects his failing poll numbers and he’s lashing back at us with the help of a partisan Supreme Court. They gutted the Voting Rights Act, saying there’s no need, minorities are represented? The Republican’s immediately pursued gerrymandering their maps to exclude minority candidates, even if voting had started. Clearly Racial discrimination resides in the heart and soul of Republicans! The public will speak and the Public has spoken on several issues: we don’t want the War in Iran, no Arch, No Trump signing money, no tearing down of the East Wing and more affordability! Is Trump going to ignore the will of the People, like most despots or do we unite and reclaim our Democracy?

TheVoiceOfJoyce It’s important to revisit the World view of King Charles, stemming from the checks and balances of the Magna Carta to Trump’s denial of our pursuit of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.

TheVoiceOfJoyce Trump is at a stalemate with Iran. His word isn’t trusted. He and Iran are playing a zero sum game, while everyone’s economy, food supply, helium, fertilizers are captive.

Also, it’s time to tally the costs of Trump’s Iranian War. It’s greater than $25 Billion, probably closer to $600 B and it’s left us less secure at home. MAKE A DEAL!
