My 2 cents on 2 damn issues of the day

#1 I wish that we could see the same outrage that was thrust upon Colin Kaeperernick, by those same people who were so apoplectic for someone taking a knee at a sporting event, thrust upon trump for not doing shit about the bounties placed on our men and women serving on the God forsaken battle fields of foreign lands. Where are they now, the "I stand for the National Anthem, I stand for the Flag" crowd? Troops can't hear you !!!!!

#2 The powerful rich, white folks, taking advantage of a talented, clearly mentally ill Black man, Kayne West. Kim K has been begging people who will listen, to help. Kayne is not in a right state of mind and yet trump operatives are convincing him (seemingly pushing him) that he needs to run for the presidency.

They did similar shit to Mike Tyson too!!! They made Mike go off his meds so he would be a better fighter (a killer)... who knows what else they were doing to him or giving him. But Mike went crazy, raped and beat his wife, tried to kill her. I in no way excuse Mike T but those handlers did contribute to his crack up. They ruined his life and first chance at happiness, in his hard life. Exploitation at the highest level. This needs to be shouted from the highest rooftops by those around Kayne ... get allies, respected Black leaders to help. Not to be political as much as to stop this abuse of someone who is ill. Disgusting

But the emails ... oh, the shame!

Since trump wants to get to the bottom of illegal use of emails ... just saying ... "Hey barr, if you are listening..."

Ivanka Trump’s and Jared Kushner’s Roles in the Administration
Ivanka Trump used personal email for government business on hundreds of occasions in 2017, a discovery sparked by American Oversight's FOIA requests and litigation. The president’s family is not above the law, and Congress should investigate Ms. Trump’s likely violations of records rules and potential mishandling of classified information. With her and her husband, Jared Kushner, occupying positions of power and influence within the White House, it is important for the public to understand how they are carrying out their duties and whether they are obeying the law.


On November 19, 2018, the Washington Post reported that Ivanka Trump used a personal account to send hundreds of emails to White House aides and cabinet officials — a fact White House officials only learned of because of American Oversight’s record requests — in probable violation of the Presidential Records Act, which requires that all official White House communications be preserved.

Following the Washington Post report, American Oversight sent a letter demanding that Congress investigate Ivanka Trump’s use of personal email and possible violations of the law, as well as risks to national security.

"White Slide" ... that's what I call the treatment of white

people by the police and the justice system ... combined with white privilege and there you have the total lack of any serious justice from beginning to end.

Of The State Of Nature Liberty versus Licence John Locke

Wear a fucking mask!

Of The State Of Nature
Liberty versus Licence
John Locke

....
6. But though this be a state of liberty, yet it is not a state of licence; though man in that state have an uncontrollable liberty to dispose of his person or possessions, yet he has not liberty to destroy himself, or so much as any creature in his possession, but where some nobler use than its bare preservation calls for it. The state of nature has a law of nature to govern it which obliges every one; and reason, which is that law, teaches all mankind who will but consult it that, being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty, or possessions; for men being all the workmanship of one omnipotent and infinitely wise Maker -- all the servants of one sovereign master, sent into the world by his order, and about his business -- they are his property whose workmanship they are, made to last during his, not one another's, pleasure; and being furnished with like faculties, sharing all in one community of nature, there cannot be supposed any such subordination among us that may authorize us to destroy another, as if we were made for one another's uses as the inferior ranks of creatures are for ours. Every one, as he is bound to preserve himself and not to quit his station wilfully, so by the like reason, when his own preservation comes not in competition, ought he, as much as he can, to preserve the rest of mankind, and may not, unless it be to do justice to an offender, take away or impair the life, or what tends to the preservation of life: the liberty, health, limb, or goods of another. ....

Welcome To Waterbury: The City That Holds Secrets That Could Bring Down Trump

I was asked to re-post this. Yes Wayne Madson's name is noted and he is a RW conspiracy kook but he makes claims against trump! Throws some confusion into their RW madness ... what to believe? But more importantly, he is not the main source of this long piece. There are Washington Post reports here, facts and now there are reports that the mayor who got 37 years, wants a COVID release from prison. Lots of trump Mafia ties along with his rapist/pedophile lifestyle. The whole story, including Ken Star!

Should we all send our Mail in ballots certified return receipt?

For those of us who can afford to. So we can have some accounting of what is happening with delays in our mail or lost ballots?

Another Covidiot from Texas, "I'm gonna spit in your face" ...video

Alien or demon sperm?

In an officer’s lapel video from incident, Madrid is heard saying, “You’re gonna have to drag me out, bro. I’m sick. I’ve got the (expletive) virus. I’m gonna spit in your face."

The police report states, Madrid started spitting at the officer, who said he did not see, feel or hear anything other than air come out of Madrid’s mouth the first two times. The officer said he immediately turned Madrid away from him and tried to hold his arms.
