The Tide Changes

The elections are over.  The House of Representatives is now owned by Democrats.  Committees can subpoena and examine Trump's tax returns.  The story-line has shifted.

Congressman Trey Gowdy spent 41 million taxpayer dollars investigating Hillary Clinton, hoping to pin a violation of email security protocols on her.  No indictments resulted.  The attack was an attempt to lower Clinton's stature in the world.  Two years under Trump has created a garden of horrors.  Indictments will almost certainly result.

Congress has a lot to examine.  Trillions of dollars in military spending that was off the books.  Corporate favoritism that threw away pollution standards as a gift to car makers.

Several major races had an almost equal number of votes for each side.  This could be the signature of hackers.  How often this voting pattern happens may be explored.

Several more state governorships were won by Democrats.  The new governors can appoint secretaries of state who will ensure that all voters have easy access to voting booths and that everyone who can legally vote is registered.  Voter suppression will be examined.

The crowd-funding groups that provided a relief from corporation funding may look to see what else they can fund using their mailing lists.

The Mueller investigation into Russian influence in the presidential election will file indictments that it has been deferring during the campaigns.

Not a good time ahead for the dark side.  The sun is rising.  

People-power beat the dollar.
