The Isolated Political Blurt Thread

So, chalk up another lie ?

tRump does not function on very little sleep.

He naps while he is in the tanning bed.

It is not as if the legitimate press has access,
in order to confirm or deny.

Private space, closed venue.

I wonder if she regrets dating Trump now? Then again, Stacey Dash apparently doesn't regret voting for him, even though Mia Love seems to be moving away from supporting him. It takes all kinds, including those who can't see racists for who they are.

How, after the Central Park Five and the Tenement Scandal, people didn't already know that Trump was a racist, I have no fucking clue.
 
As ever, tRump's Potemkin facade hides very ugly facts.

To hide the dirt that resulted from tRump's charity scams, he put a child in his self-serving speech. FFS, tRump scammed charity funds that were for children with cancer! He did it for a mere $100,00.00 in his bank account.


"Oh, look a child that survived cancer, helping other children with cancer, sitting with Melania the Malevolent of the I Don't Care (about immigrant babies and little children in prisons for children) Do You ? coat. The ugly truth is that tRump hacked funding from the 2018 budget for medical and scientific reasearch, and specifically cancer treatment for children, to fund his war on immigrants.

tRump cannot run the country well, and perpetrate scams to benefit his supporters. Did you know there are plans in the works to privatize the Wall and Wall security ?


So, the Center for Disease Control gets less for prevention. Children that are ill do not get insurance, or medical care. No provisions for needy children to take part in research programs. So, they die of cancer. So what! It is not as if Trump Loyalists or Republicans actually care about children.

Trump needed a clean child to use as soap, to wash his dirty reputation.

“Where did tRump cut funds from, in order to flash $500 million ?

(We paid that much for his jet transporatation, his SUV entourage, and security.)

Efforts to oust Maine Republican Susan Collins intensify after Kavanaugh’s anti-abortion vote

After Justice Brett Kavanaugh was condemned on Thursday for declaring “war” on Roe v. Wade by dissenting against the Supreme Court’s decision to block a Louisiana anti-abortion law, reproductive rights groups quickly turned their ire toward Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) for casting the decisive vote to confirm the right-wing judge—and ramped up their efforts to oust her in 2020.

“Paging Senator Collins—this is on you,” UltraViolet declared on Twitter after the high court’s 5-4 decision.

Highlighting new reports that Collins received more donations from Kavanaugh supporters than Mainers in the last quarter of 2018, Fallon declared that the Republican senator “now owns every decision” the right-wing judge makes.

“We will make sure the people of Maine don’t forget Collins’ vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh,” he concluded.

Own it Susan!:D
 
Shocking body-cam video shows cop pulling down man’s shorts to taser him in the genitals during traffic stop

Newly released body-camera footage shows Glendale police tasering a man eleven times, the Arizona Republic reports.

Glendale Officers Matt Schneider and Mark Lindsey are shown in the video tasering Jonny Weatcroft, 39, after a traffic stop.

The city of Glendale, Scheider, Lindsey and Officer Michael Fernandez are being sued in the U.S. District Court of Arizona for “unlawful, unnecessary, unreasonable, and excessive force, which resulted in life-altering injuries to Plaintiff Johnny Wheatcroft and his family.”

“Minutes later, Wheatcroft was handcuffed lying face down on the hot asphalt on a 108-degree day. He’d already been tased 10 times, with one officer kneeling on his back as another, Officer Matt Schneider, kicked him in the groin and pulled down his athletic shorts to tase him a final time in his testicles, according to a federal lawsuit and body camera footage obtained by ABC15,” the station reported.

The graphic video is disturbing:

Good thing he wasn't Brown or they would have shot him a lot!:eek:

A big part of friendship is showing up for your girls—that’s why I was thrilled to be there for the one and only @aliciakeys at the #GRAMMYs. She is one of the most genuine and thoughtful people I know—there’s no one better to help us all celebrate the unifying power of music!

Professionalism, toleration, willing cooperation, and enthusiasm. Despite the political state of our nation, it was a big tent night. On with the show! Next stop, Broadway ?
 
The rapper’s shooting has also raised questions about when it’s appropriate to use deadly force, particularly in situations where the subject is asleep or unresponsive. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, McCoy’s death is one of three deadly police shootings in the Bay Area in recent years in which officers shot an armed man after trying to rouse him.

On Feb. 13, trails at Horsetooth Mountain reopened after a recent attack on a runner. @COParksWildlife officers captured 2 juvenile #mountainlions that were in vicinity. They will be sent to a rehabilitation facility before being released back into the wild in the future.

Funny that all of the news outlets are omitting that it was a 35 pound kitten that attacked him.

10:20 PM - 14 Feb 2019

Wildlife officers who found the deceased cat on the trail estimate that the mountain lion was about 40 pounds and 5 months old, an age where it should still be with its mother. Using cameras and extra patrols, officials with Larimer County and Colorado Parks and Wildlife learned of two other juvenile cats in the area, believed to be siblings of the one that attacked Kauffman, but no full-grown cats, no mother in sight.

These wildlife experts trapped the two young cats and took them to a rehabilitation center. When the cats are older and have learned to hunt, they will be released back into the wild.

The state was going to give Amazon a $3 BILLION dollar tax break! And after it was announced that there's a tax revenue deficit this year, people started to see that the deal with them and started to FINALLY complain. It was people from the City. It was people and legislators in Albany. Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, and Binghamton.

Then Amazon tried to say they couldn't handle the backlash? Talk about true snowflake corporations!!

Tom Bower calling left wing Jewish journalist @MikeSegalov a 'spokesperson' for a left politician and a 'self-hating Jew'. Brazen bigotry on @GMB - unsurprisingly you won't hear much about it.

Solidarity with my brilliant friend @MikeSegalov, a courageous, principled and clever fighter against social injustice and racism, smeared on air as a "self-hating Jew" by a professional smear merchant. Genuinely vile. Why didn't the presenters say anything?

Angela Smith tells @KayBurley that she said BAME people have a "funny tinge" because "I was very, very tired at that point. I'd had six hours of press engagement". The answer clearly is to do more broadcast...

8:34 AM - 19 Feb 2019

Despite the clip of Smith’s flub having garnered over a million views on Twitter, it wasn’t featured on Channel 4 News, BBC News at 10 or this morning’s Today programme. It would be utterly unthinkable that a Labour member, let alone an MP, would have been forgiven so quickly for a similar statement at the height of the summer’s antisemitism crisis. The Independent Group, justifiably, have excoriated their former party for the pace and ineffectiveness of its disciplinary procedures. But as they’ve not officially launched a party of their own, they’ve managed to skilfully evade any such criticism of their own internal workings. How would I make a complaint about Angela Smith’s comments? What kind of disciplinary procedure would she face? Have these MPs signed up to a working definition of racism? And when will the establishment media confront the Independent Group over its institutional racism problem?
