I think we have been lied to so often and for so long that people have become sort of disinterested and cynical about our political process. Besides, the concept of objective truth seems to have gone by the board...everything is seen through the lens of subjectivity these days. You know, "my truth" and all that.

Politicians always shade the truth because their objective isn't to be honest with us, rather they want us to buy into their rationalization of whatever self serving policy position they're trying to enact.

It's all about a relative handful of people attaining power and then keeping themselves in power. There's no incentive for them to be honest.

The House passed a resolution last week that lambastes the VP for not fulfilling her role as Border Czar. It passed unanimously by Republicans - amazing unity for once - and with 6 Democrats. That makes it bi-lateral, non partisan. It hangs the juicy pork chop of open borders securely around Kamala's neck.

And today there are two more scandals boiling around her about her lying and lack of leadership:

Why did she cover up the President's condition for 3 1/2 years, having almost daily contact and saying nothing? She joined in the "sharp as a tack" chorus until the debate exposed this as a lie. She was responsible, and she lied.

Why isn't she providing leadership in the investigation of the attempted assassination of her now political rival? The USSS Director has resigned and not been replaced, and the Secretary of Homeland Security is silent, as is the President. Where is the leadership on this most serious threat to national security since the Reagan attempted assassination?

She's failed in her leadership in the past and she's failing today. Unlike other countries, the President of the United States is not a ceremonial position. It is an executive position.

Our memory is shorter than the Biden memory , who lived with his Boss' ( yes President O ) expansion of White House Offices under Czars ( if it walks like a duck ) and often emulated his experience there . https://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?referer=&httpsredir=1&article=4720&context=flr
