CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY OCTOBER 20, 2021
THREE ITEMS TO MENTION TODAY. FIRST, THE DEATH OF COLIN POWELL, A SOLDIER, A SERVANT IN
PUBLIC OFFICE, — INCLUDING NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER AND SECRETARY OF STATE — AND A
TREMENDOUS PERSONAL STORY THAT OUGHT TO BE A MODEL FOR OTHER MINORITIES. SADLY, THERE WAS
NOTHING IN ANY STORY I READ ABOUT WHETHER HE HAD SAVING FAITH WHICH, IN THE END, IS ALL THAT
MATTERS.
SECOND, THE SPENDING BILLS DEMOCRATS ARE TRYING TO PUSH THROUGH THE HOUSE CUT
MONEY FOR BORDER PATROL AND THE WALL AND DIVERT IT INTO ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAMS AND TO
PAY FOR MORE ABORTIONS. SICK.
LASTLY, VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS HAS RECORDED A VIDEO TO BE PLAYED IN VIRGINIA’S 300
BLACK CHURCHES. SHE URGES THEM TO VOTE FOR DEMOCRAT TERRY MCAULIFFE FOR GOVERNOR IN
NEXT MONTH’S ELECTION. THIS CLEARLY VIOLATES THE HATCH ACT WHICH SAYS: “AN EMPLOYEE MAY NOT
USE HIS OFFICIAL AUTHORITY OR INFLUENCE FOIR THE PURPOSE OF INTERFERING WITH OR AFFECTING THE
RESULT OF AN ELECTION.” THE LAW COULD NOT BE MORE CLEAR. WILL HARRIS BE PUNISHED? OF COURSE
NOT. THAT’S WASHINGTON. THE CITY PROTECTS ITS OWN. I’M CAL THOMAS.
