Finally:

I have decided to start my own "Me Too Movement." Whatever I say and post you can believe.+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
One of the most corrupt members of the Obama Administration happens to have been his Attorney General. Holder knows with funding from Soros they can influence and help elect state and city attorney generals throughout the United States and eventually insure radical changes in our nation's local and state laws.  This will eventually change the nature of  America.  These attorney generals get visibility through various sensational public law suits which allow them to run for Governor-ships and then Senators etc.

The payoff for the modest campaign funding and political leverage gained thereby,  is enormous.

Eric Holder’s gerrymandering crusade is hypocritical | Opinion

By Hayden Ludwig and Kevin Mooney, For the Inquirer

After leaving the Obama administration, former Attorney General Eric Holder launched a redistricting crusade in the states, supporting, he told the Wall Street Journal, the effort by “citizens or nonpartisan commissions to draw electoral lines so neither party benefits.” To that end, Holder has been writing high-profile op-eds, one in support of a documentary film which, he claims, examines the “broken” political system resulting from partisan gerrymandering.
How ironic then that Holder’s actual work in Pennsylvania and other states is meant to do exactly what he decries: weaponize the redistricting process to help Democrats permanently turn Pennsylvania blue.
Holder has been laying the groundwork for his redistricting effort for years. Almost immediately after leaving the Obama administration, he declared that “Congress is broken” thanks to Republicans’ “extreme partisan gerrymandering.”
“This creates a Congress driven by primary party politics and ideological extremism,” Holder wrote, “not one accountable to the will of the majority of voters.”
His solution: the National Democratic Redistricting Committee (NDRC), a PAC created after the 2016 election and chaired by Holder with the aim of replacing “gerrymandered” maps that favor Republicans with gerrymandered maps that favor Democrats. NDRC is anything but nonpartisan, billing itself as the “strategic hub for a comprehensive redistricting strategy” for Democrats.
The NDRC has set its sights on 12 states where Republicans either have a clear legislative majority, such as Texas, or face a close race against Democrats, such as North Carolina, in 2020. Pennsylvania is a high priority, and the NDRC PAC is pouring money directly into state races. In the 2017–18 election cycle, the NDRC sent $250,000 to Gov. Tom Wolf’s (D.) successful reelection campaign, and another $100,000 to the Pennsylvania Democratic Party’s Senate PAC. In the 2019–20 cycle, it’s already given at least $25,000 to the Democrats’ Pennsylvania Senate PAC.

NDRC is supported by two “sister” nonprofits: the National Redistricting Action Fund, a 501(c)(4) that lobbies for state ballot measures supporting California-style redistricting “reforms,” and the National Redistricting Foundation, a 501(c)(3) that endlessly litigates against Republican-drawn maps.
Their efforts have already paid off. In 2017, the NDRC filed an amicus briefing supporting a lawsuit by the liberal League of Women Voters, which alleged that Pennsylvania’s congressional map unfairly favored Republicans. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court agreed, threw the map out, and redrew it in 2018.
It goes without saying that congressional maps should be drawn with fairness in mind, but fairness is hardly Holder’s goal. Just consider who he’s surrounding himself with.
NDRC is closely allied with groups trying to turn Pennsylvania blue, such as America Votes, the self-described “coordination hub of the Progressive community.” America Votes emerged from the Democrats’ defeat in the 2004 election as the brainchild of a group of influential Democratic operatives: Clinton official Harold Ickes, then-Service Employees International Union president Andy Stern, then-Sierra Club Executive Director Carl Pope, EMILY’s List founder Ellen Malcolm, and Partnership for America’s Families founder Steve Rosenthal.
America Votes quickly gained the support of major labor unions, litigation nonprofits, abortion advocates, environmentalist groups, and professional activists to put together a huge $95 million war chest for churning out likely Democratic voters in key battleground states, including Pennsylvania and North Carolina.
Holder’s war on Pennsylvania is cynical Washington politics at its worst, waged by the ultimate political insider. Recall that as attorney general, the self-described “activist attorney general” was held in contempt by the Republican-led House of Representatives with support from some Democrats, and critics on the right accused him of politicizing the U.S. Justice Department by ignoring Democratic voter intimidation cases and hiring only committed leftists to the civil service.
What are the consequences of Holder’s redistricting crusade? Consider his own words: “[W]hen politicians gerrymander the result is not just skewed elections results — it shows up in the policies enacted or blocked and in the hyper partisanship that frustrates so many Americans right now,” Holder wrote in the Hollywood Reporter.
In exporting his partisan political tricks to the states, Eric Holder is trying to twist state elections with the same stain that taints our national politics. That’s anything but fair.

Last night I heard a very lucid interview of a president of a health care company who also is a doctor-scientist.
He was  asked his view post the virus episode.

He replied, for the last decade we have celebrated our diversity, our differences and in the next decade we have the opportunity to celebrate our commonality and unique Americanism. What a beautiful thought and one can only hope that will be the case but I doubt it will happen because without division and contrived controversies  Democrats would lose power and control over our nation's destiny.  It would also mean they would have to play by the rules and quit hating Trump were he to be re-elected.  Too big a price to pay for national unity and America's survival.
