我見我思我聞

華府就要變天了

喬治亞州的參議院選舉中，民主黨的維諾以些微票數打敗了現任共和黨的羅夫勒，成為該州有史以來首位在南方喬州選出的美國參議員，也是第十一位進入參議院的非裔議員。

維諾在勝選後表示，他深深感激喬治亞人對他的信任，在美國沒有一件不可能的事，這位政府貧民住宅中長大的參議員，在家中排列十二名孩子中的第十一位，在無比艱辛的生活中他成為一位牧師，在金恩博士同一教會中佈道，在那个黑白閡隔的五十年代，他的母親曾以棉花工為生，他的成就代表了千萬美國非裔社會之成功例子，他說 “因我們是在美國，八十二歲的母親曾經把棉花做成了枕頭，如今她把自己的孩子選擇成為美國參議員。”

今天在華府，許多共和黨人诸如德州參議員克魯茲等人上演了一場政治鬧劇，企圖在選舉人票公佈之參眾議院联席會議上，推翻五十州認定的選舉人票，公然挑戰憲法之尊嚴，他們已經赔上了自己的霊魂，賠上了憲法賦與之公平正義和平交接的傳統，為的是要川普繼續連任。

共和黨在此次大選中公然指使官員做票，只要能保住政權可以胡作非為，請問這是我們所追求的民主嗎？

今天不論在華府街頭如何叫囂，不論政客如何為非做歹，他們總有下台的一天，人民的力量將是最佳的答案。

我們非常痛心在疫情加劇每三十秒就有一個國人死亡的時候，我們要問縂統你有何感受，感謝上天，華府就要變天了。

The Time Of Change Is Coming

Reverend Raphael Warnock has won the Georgia senate seat. He has become the first Black senator in Georgia history and also will be the 11th African American to serve in the US Senate.

Warnock told reporters that his victory was stunning, “But I think in America anything is possible. That’s why I love this country so much and I refuse to give in to the force of cynicism. It takes hard work. Change is slow and often it comes in fits and starts.” He said that he is so deeply honored that Georgia has placed their trust in him.

Warnock grew up in Savannah, Georgia, in public housing. He is the 11th of 12 children in his family. He is the first college graduate in his family. He is a senior pastor of the Ebenezer Baptist Church where Martin Luther King Jr. preached. In his victory speech he said, “Because this is America, the 82-year-old hands that used to pick somebody else’s cotton went to the polls and picked her youngest son to be a United States senator. This election result really teaches the politicians in many ways.”

Today thousands of Trump’s supporters were in Washington, D.C. for rallies to falsely assert that the presidential election was stolen from Trump. Many of them see the demonstration as a last stand for Trump. On this same day, Congress will vote to certify that Joe Biden will be the next president of the United States.

We are so happy that the American landscape is changing. More and more minorities are entering politics. We urge the leaders of the Republican Party to have courage to defend Biden’s victory.

Biden’s electoral victory is being challenged by some of Republicans attempting the first legislative coup d’etat in American history.

It is the saddest time in our modern history. Every thirty seconds one of our countrymen passes away because of the coronavirus. We all want to ask, “Mr. President, what are you doing now?”
