Time for Some Action - a podcast by Tony Rush

9/24/20 (Time for Action)

Welcome to The Rush on Life

This is the show where we continue to discuss various topics from the world of Politics, Sports, Entertainment, 15 Minutes of Life.

Politics:

1.      With less than six weeks to go Uncle Joe leads Agent Orange by 10 points nationally according to the latest Polls. Will it Matter in November?

2.      Rip RBG. With her passing the battle to fill her seat has begun. Democrats want the Senate to wait until after the election. However that was not the case when President Obama was in office. Republicans and Agent Orange do not want to delay and that was not the Case a few years ago when the Dems had the Whitehouse. Both side are reminding the American people why the hypocrisy in Politics remains a huge turnoff to the American Electorate. Neither side can have it both ways.

3.      The Virus is still winning. Over 7 million Americans infected. More than 205,000 lives lost. Agent orange and his base do not want to face the facts that people have died and are still dying. He is not solely responsible but his poor leadership has contributed to the deaths of far too many.

Sports:

1.      NBA on the court are down to four teams (Miami v Boston) (Los Angeles v Denver) I believe the Lakers will win the title.

2.      NBA Off the court. Many players with a platform continue to speak out against the racial injustices and systemic racism the remains intact inside the belly of the beast that is America. Despite the angst and disapproval from so many this generation of young activist who play sports will not just shut up and dribble.

3.      The NFL is back to playing football and the protest have been mixed. From kneeling to locking arms and staying in the locker room during the playing of the National Anthem the league as a whole has not shown me anything different. Colin Kaepernick can’t get a tryout despite the injuries and poor play around the league at his position. And a number of you could care less as you are more worried about the point spread and your fantasy team. Despicable. 

Entertainment/15 Minutes of Life.

!. Breonna Taylor should be alive and those who are responsible for her death should not be free to walk the streets like nothing happened. As many cry out and protest the latest display of racial injustice no one should be surprised by the verdict. This is America. I know for some of us this hurts but now is not the time to give up. Now is the time for Action! No more excuses or alibis get registered and make sure you Vote so your voice will be heard. Malcom told us years ago that it is the Ballot or The Bullet. Don’t allow divisive tactics to derail your efforts or dimmish your power. The right to peacefully protest is what we must continue to do. Hold others accountable by first getting your house in order. VOTE, VOTE VOTE!

Thanks for supporting the show. Please continue to tell one, who will tell another, who will tell the world about The Rush on Life. Until next time peace and Love.
