Yesterday’s WIDE OPEN WEDNESDAY was a busy one, so busy that we did not really get to how divided the country is and just who is driving that division. We’ll pick that up today. It’s now division fostered by arrogance and anger and the desire is to make it spread far and wide.

It’s further fueled by yesterday’s 2nd Impeachment of President Trump. It’s based in falsehood and is brought to eliminate the threat the president represents to the swamp that is Washington, DC.

The dividers call others liars while it’s they who are doing the lying. They cry racism where race is no part of the action taken. There was a call from Forbes magazine to blacklist former Trump staffers. A PBS attorney wants Trump voter’s children in reeducation camps, and some college professors even want President Biden to create a Ministry of Truth. Noncompliant social media has been shuttered by those powerful entities that control what we see and say.

In Brevard the County Commission fell along gender lines, OK line- after all there are only two genders so only one line is necessary, as it debated a new landfill location. As the State Attorney cowered from the Rona and asked the courts to close back down, the order came that all masks used in court must be clear. It’s a good idea, but who’s going to pay?
