Friday morning political cartoons...and a brief commentary.

Orlando FL

Description

The Military Industrial Complex, that Eisenhower warned Americans about in the 1950s, bloomed to it’s highest level of theft and corruption under the tutelage of republicans! They turned military contracts into gold for their donors. Our military is bloated beyond its use and it takes too much money from the prosperity of our nation. The republicans have schemed to diversify military production contracts to red states where the population begins to depend on the income and they push for more spending when the military does not need the equipment or budget! Untold billions in cash were stolen under trump when they flew plane loads of money to Afghanistan only for it to disappear. Same with the no-bid contracts to keep detained immigrants in cages, same with the no-bid wall construction, same with the no-bid vaccine awards, same with huge amounts of Covid funds for PPE, same with every major project run by trump! It is time for America to be for the benefit of the average person instead of the mega-wealthy and the well connected. The best way to begin to achieve that goal is to IMPOSE TERM LIMITS ON ALL LEGISLATORS! ALL LEGISLATORS! HOUSE REPRESENTATIVES-2 TERMS, SENATE-1 TERM! The Founding Fathers intended that citizens, not professional politicians, would take pride in short term representation of the citizens that elected them FOR THE COMMON GOOD! Republicans have corrupted that like everything else they touch. They have decided that in order to keep their power they must lie, cheat, steal and connive, and lie about their purpose. They have proved it to you time and time again. Time’s up! No more republican lies, vote them out locally and nationally forever!
