Hour 1 – John J. Higgins and Barb Adams, False Prophet<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

If Trump\u2019s behaviors this week alone aren\u2019t enough to prove \u201cthe emperor has no clothes\u201d and that Trump is not only a demagogue, narcissist, racist, sexist, lying know-nothing who is mentally unstable and unfit to be president, then nothing will.<\/p>\n

Beginning Tuesday, Trump not only accused American Jews of being \u201cdisloyal\u201d and ignorant for not voting for him, he accused a congresswoman of being anti-Semitic, accused the Democrats of conspiring to abolish the Second Amendment, suggested Russia be let back into the G7, brought up (fake) tax cuts again (\u201cWe\u2019re always<\/em> looking at tax cuts\u201d), and cancelled a planned trip to Denmark because its prime minister wouldn\u2019t consider Trump\u2019s offer to buy Greenland, calling it \u201cabsurd.\u201d<\/p>\n

By Wednesday morning, unable to let the Danish prime minister have the final word, especially because she\u2019s a powerful woman, Trump unleashed on Twitter, attacking Denmark\u2019s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, going so far as to call her \u201cnasty,\u201d his seeming favorite pejorative for women. The Danish PM now joins the ranks of other \u201cnasty\u201d women Elizabeth Warren, Hillary Clinton, Carmen Cruz (mayor of San Juan, PR), Kamala Harris, Megan the Duchess of Sussex, and Nancy Pelosi. Perhaps not wanting to appear one-sided in his abuse, or more likely, just totally unable to stop himself, Trump also unleashed on the Chair of the Federal Reserve, the PC automakers who want to make cleaner cars, and, of course, the fake-news media. And he reversed course on the tax cuts, stating \u201cNo, not considering any cuts, no reason to.\u201d<\/p>\n

But perhaps the most bizarre (and telltale) Tweet was Trump thanking and requoting a conservative talk-show host\u2019s quote about Trump being the King of Israel and the Second Coming.\u00a0 Trump obviously agrees wholeheartedly, as just hours later at a press conference, Trump referred to himself as \u201cthe Chosen One\u201d while looking up at the sky.<\/p>\n

Now mind you, Trump\u2019s daily outbursts and actions all along have been consistently shocking, but we\u2019ve come to a point, unfortunately, where they\u2019re rarely surprising.\u00a0 He lied before becoming president and lies now as president.\u00a0 As a candidate, Trump insulted and railed against minorities, women, and anyone who didn\u2019t agree with him. As president, he continues to do so at a furious pace. \u00a0He led the \u201clock her up\u201d chants at the Republican National Convention and now smiles broadly as his rally attendees chant \u201csend them back!\u201d\u00a0 He never understood the importance of NATO and our allies and appeared stumped by a question regarding the nuclear triad. He certainly doesn\u2019t understand how tariffs work today. And his ignorance of most topics, especially history and science, remains abysmal.<\/p>\n

The recognition of patterns is important in most professions, and Trump\u2019s patterns have been there to see for anyone who cared to see them. \u00a0But something has changed, and Trump\u2019s patterns seem to be taking on a more dangerous form. \u00a0For example, Trump\u2019s absurd rift with an ally over an idea of buying Greenland; or his complete lack of empathy when meeting with the most recent shooting victims\u2014talking crowd size and attacking perceived rivals, giving a big smile and thumbs up while having his photo taken with a newly orphaned infant.\u00a0 The lies are becoming more fantastic and so is his self-perception as \u201cthe Chosen One.\u201d<\/p>\n

In almost any profession or position of responsibility, if someone went around proclaiming they\u2019re \u201cthe Chosen One,\u201d they\u2019d be replaced or removed. Even more so if they were known to be routinely lying about important issues or operational details, or lashing out constantly when under perceived criticism, or purposefully creating lies about other people they didn\u2019t approve of, or were sidling up to foreign dictators and foreign powers known to be attacking the U.S., they would be removed.<\/p>\n

But Trump isn\u2019t just in any profession. He\u2019s in charge of the most powerful country and military in the world and, as such, is in charge of all this country\u2019s nuclear weapons, diplomatic agreements, and everything else that comes with executive power.<\/p>\n

And thoughts and prayers aren\u2019t going to help us.<\/p>\n

Hour 2 (Rebroadcast) – Dr. Dravon James, Freedom is Your Birthright<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"Joining the show during the second hour is author, motivational speaker, and Founder of Everyday Peace, Dr. Dravon\u00a0 James<\/strong>. Dr. James will be discussing Freedom is Your Birthright<\/strong><\/em>, the first book of her 5-part Stepping Stones Series.<\/em><\/p>\n

It isn\u2019t really a secret at all. \u00a0It\u2019s a practical process that takes into full account how we humans achieve self-mastery.\u00a0 Freedom is Your Birthright<\/i> is a small, bite-size book, the first step in the 5-part Stepping Stone Series<\/em>. \u00a0This book will teach you how to attain internal freedom, an essential ingredient on your exciting journey to Every Day Peace.<\/p>\n

Dr. Dravon James is the founder of Everyday Peace and a motivational speaker whose goal is to educate, empower, and inspire others to build the life of their dreams no matter what shows up in their lives\u2013good, bad, or otherwise.<\/p>\n

Dravon has faced what many would consider insurmountable odds for creating a dream life, but she has discovered that it\u2019s not where you start from or what happens in your life that determines how far you\u2019ll go. Her journey began in poverty on the South Side of Chicago. She went on to earn a doctorate degree in pharmacy from Creighton University, endured a very difficult marriage, many failed pregnancies, career turmoil and health challenges. Through it all, she knew she possessed the power within her to not only create her own dream life, but to help others along the way. She is now the happy mother of two teenagers, a successful pharmacist, and an actress. Since she was a young girl, Dravon dreamt of a life on the stage. Today, her career credits include a recurring role on HBO\u2019s acclaimed \u201cThe Wire,\u201d many stage plays, and independent films.<\/p>\n

In 2002, Dravon began incorporating her personal development stories into her professional healthcare lectures at hospitals, long-term care facilities, and senior centers. Her journey and teachings resonated with her audiences, and it became apparent that many people were more interested in the Everyday Peace component of her talks than the pharmaceuticals. She was even invited to be the keynote speaker on Everyday Peace at one of the senior center\u2019s annual staff appreciation events.<\/p>\n

Today, Dravon continues to inspire and teach what she knows to be the most effective tool for transforming, creating, and building a spectacular life\u2014tapping into Everyday Peace. Her client list includes the University of the District of Columbia, New Hope World Ministries, Today\u2019s Care Adult Daycare, Stadium Place, and Next Chapter<\/em> online radio. Dravon is also the host of \u201cEveryday Peace\u201d on Unity Online Radio. <\/u><\/p>\n
