Souls for Sale? By Lance Carden
There is no longer
any room
for doubt
about whether
our President, Donald Trump,
has sold out
his office
& his soul,
but we might have to wait
as late
as December
to witness the fate
of some other GOP souls,
in the House
& the Senate--
to know
if they also are about to be sold!

Trump in
Quicksand
By Lance Carden
Trump’s house is built
politically
on mere quicksand--
on lies, half-truths, & hate,
on which
biblically
nothing can firmly stand.
So, sooner than later,
prophetically,
Trump’s tall towers,
his henchmen, & all
seem certain
to self-collapse,
& great will be their fall.

Below is Biden's Campaign Speech in Lancaster, PA on June 25, 2020.
Reflections on Joe Biden's comments in Lancaster Pennsylvania, June 25,2020 -Dr. Mark Vogel, captain of precinct 505, St. Johns County Democratic Party
FALLING IN LIKE WITH JOE
Like sunshine piercing through a dark, angry sky, and clouds dissipating; a cool breeze moves through the air, calming the space.
That is what I felt as I heard Joe speak today. No pizzazz, no hyperbolics. Just Joe: genuine, straight talk, concerned, timeless.
Black lives matter because to Joe black lives have always mattered. You know it, you can feel it, you can see it. The way he talks, looks you in the eye, shakes your hand. You matter; black, white, Latino, Asian, gay, straight, transgendered, Republican. Everyone matters. His concern and empathy are authentic, the real deal.
He is not bulletproof. He has been hit hard, wounded, tested like few other adults. He is not bitter. He is deeper, more contemplative, immensely compassionate to those who suffer.
He is generous in spirit and love. He wants you to have health insurance because he wants you well and does not want you to feel agonizing anxiety.
He is wise, savvy, enormously experienced, informed by blue-collar grit of the industrial streets.
He is emotionally honest. He is accountable with no excuses. He makes mistakes and admits them. He is eminently human. What you see is what you get.
For an hour after he spoke I felt meditative peace, tranquility
There is hope for our nation.
