When the truth was revealed to all the weary travelers in The Wizard of Oz, they were shocked to learn they had believed a false narrative and been led down a yellow brick road of deception and unmet expectations. This tale has a direct application to the current political monstrosity being perpetrated upon us disguised Congressional oversight.

Each of the characters going to Oz offered to accompany Dorothy and help her, but when they discovered they had been fooled, each one cried out for their own desires and agenda. “What about me?” “How will I get what I want out of this situation?” In the end, it was the little dog without an agenda that unveiled the deception and confronted the “Wizard” with the ugly truth he had worked so hard to hide.

Democrats are now calling for openness and investigation, when the previous Biden administration was coached and shielded; and all administrative decrees went unchallenged.

Republicans feign outrage at Democrat tactics, but in truth, are just as power hungry as Democrats. Their shouting now rings hollow after four years of what looks more like rigor mortis than representation.

It is time We the People made our voice heard and told Congress that they are not important, they are public servants. It is time we stopped allowing the idea that Washington is Hollywood for ugly people to foist unqualified startlets upon us who exercise power over us that we are authorized to exercise over them.

This exceptional land of opportunity is stronger that steel when power is wielded by hands of honor but hanging by a thread in the hands of liars and thieves. Our founders did not pledge their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor for what we endure from Capitol Hill now. Our fathers and our brothers did not leave their homes and shed their blood at Normandy, and Iwo Jima so entrenched bureaucrats could grow rich and shred the Constitution.

I pray that good people from all political persuasions will look closely at what is going on and let their elected hired hands know they expect better than this. The call to Congress must be clear and unmistakable. Either govern by the Constitution or go look for another job. McDonald’s can always use a good talker like you to say, “You want fries with that?”
