The crazy never ends. Let's look at the illegitimate
Supreme Court which is packed with operatives who work behind the scenes
with operatives (such as Jonathan Turley) and try to destroy
democracy. Lorie Smith is trash and garbage. May she forever be the
face of hate and intolerance in the US. If you do business with her,
shame on you. THE HILL reports:
Justice
Sonia Sotomayor blasted the Supreme Court’s decision to back a
Christian wedding website designer’s choice not to provide services to
gay couples, calling the decision “profoundly wrong” in a scathing
dissenting argument read from the bench.
“Today,
the Court, for the first time in its history, grants a business open to
the public a constitutional right to refuse to serve members of a
protected class,” Sotomayor wrote.
The
associate justice harkened back to the civil rights and women’s rights
movements in her dissent, suggesting that in recent years, gender and
sexual orientation minority groups have faced “backlash to the movement
for liberty and equality.”
“New
forms of inclusion have been met with reactionary exclusion. This is
heartbreaking. Sadly, it is also familiar,” she wrote. “When the civil
rights and women’s rights movements sought equality in public life, some
public establishments refused. Some even claimed, based on sincere
religious beliefs, constitutional rights to discriminate. The brave
Justices who once sat on this Court decisively rejected those claims.”
Justices Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson joined Sotomayor’s dissenting argument.
It
is disgusting and it is offensive. It is also undemocratic. We need
Court reform and we need it now. DOBBS, the verdict that legal
innocence doesn't matter (see Betty's "") and the attack on affirmative
action. Now this?
We
have a Court that refuses to follow the law, that disregards precedents
and that is making it up as it goes along. That is not how the law
works.
Smith
and her attorneys from the right-wing Christian group Alliance
Defending Freedom identified a prospective client named Stewart who
inquired about a website for his same-sex wedding, but a man claiming to
be that individual came forward and claimed he is, in fact, a straight, married father who never made that request.
“I’m married, I have a child — I’m not really sure where that came from?" the man told the New Republic. "But somebody’s using false information in a Supreme Court filing document."
Legal experts were appalled that a ruling of such importance to LGBTQ rights could be based on such flimsy evidence.
"Please
recall that no same-sex couple has ever sought to engage Lorie Smith's
business to create a wedding for their website; this case is built
entirely on hypotheticals; there are essentially no facts," tweeted Mark Joseph Stern, a legal writer for Slate. "The decision's scope is ambiguous and uncertain."
"It’s
not clear what happened, and it’s not clear the claim makes a
difference in the case — the issue wasn’t in the 10th Cir opinion and
didn’t come up at oral arguments, in fact, a recurring point has been
that there are no same-sex couples involved — but it’s certainly
weird," added legal writer Chris Geidner.
"Just so you know, the Supreme Court just sanctioned discrimination against LGBTQ people based on a fake case," tweeted Imani
Gandy, senior editor for law and policy for Rewire News. "Lorie Smith
and ADF invented a gay couple to discriminate against and the Supreme
Court said sure why not. On the last goddamn day of Pride."
"For Gorsuch to question the dissent’s handling of the facts in 303 Creative after his lies in Kennedy is nuclear hypocrisy," said Georgia
State law professor Eric Segall. "'The dissent gets so turned around
about the facts that it opens fire on its own position.'"
"The web designer in 303 Creative is an artisan doing work for hire," said Indiana
University law professor Steve Sanders. "She is creating products
ordered by customers, not selling her own artistic productions or
following her own muse. All the Court's citations to the contrary are
distinguishable. The 1st Am does not apply."
"Those of you writing up 303 Creative will want to be sure to note that the alleged request was made up," said legal writer Marcy Wheeler. "SCOTUS just ruled on something makebelieve."
"Let's
be clear: nothing happened to the plaintiff in 303 Creative, the whole
'case' was a hypothetical exercise, and the GOP Justices used it as a
vehicle to undermine every single federal, state, county, and city
anti-discrimination law in the country," added trial lawyer Max Kennerly.
"This isn't a complicated first amendment case," tweeted Elie
Mystal, justice correspondent for The Nation. "You can be as bigoted as
you want to be on your own, hateful time. But when you put up a sign
'open for business' you have to SERVE THE CUSTOMERS who walk through
your door. It isn't hard. Though I know bigots think it so."
Lastly, do not forget that Katie Halper has made the decision to glorify sex offenders. Today, she and professional cuck Aaron Mate brought pedophile Scott Ritter onto USEFUL IDIOTS to have fun and chat. He is a convicted pedophile. He is a registered sex offender. But he's also Katie's new buddy. She's pathetic and she's disgusting. May she rot in hell.
Friday, June 29, 2023. Marianne Williamson emerges with an
authentic voice and a purpose, BLACK POWER MEDIA sits down with Conel
West, DeSantis versus DISNEY continues to go DISNEY's way, and much
more.
We're starting again with Marianne Williamson who is seeking the Democratic Party's presidential nomination.
From the discussion above, picking up from yesterday:
@Maebe_A_Girl: Also, when you were talking about this idea that gay people are trying to 'groom' children, that is very offensive.
Marianne Williamson: Yeah.
@Maebe_A_Girl: My
daughter was born -- She has three gay men who are her godfathers and
it never would have occurred to me in a million years that they would be
anything other than fantastic godfathers to her. And they absolutely
were. One has now passed and the other two are very close to her and
they couldn't have been better. And they couldn't be better now as
godfather figures in her life -- in her life and important. What you
said is so true and I've had a lot of involvement with the gay community
-- mainly because of the AIDS crisis -- I've never felt that there was a
'reaching out.' This is not a proselytizing group, it's kind of like,
you do you.
Marianne Williamson:
And so why don't we do something and blame somebody? Say, "Hey, let's
actually look over there and let's talk about how these people are
trying to infiltrate our way of life and try to attack our children."
It's such an easy, easy way to get people riled up -- is when you bring
children into the matter because, of course, everyone wants to protect
children. LGBTQIA people want to protect children. And that's why we
are so outspoken about these issues -- because we, LGBTQIA adults, were
once LGBTQIA children and we remember what it was like to be ostracized,
to be othered and to be made to feel that we are not worthy because our
of our internal identities. And so I think the whole thing is a huge
distraction and there are so many things that we could talk about. And
the fact of the matter is what the GOP is saying that queer people are
trying to do to kids is simply false. You know, there are studies.
There are no -- LGBTQIA people in general are no more likely than cis
gender -- heterosexual people -- to be pedophiles, to be sexual
assaulters. But because of the fact that LGBTQIA people, a lot of it
[what we are] revolves around our sexual identities and our gender
identities, the GOP just easily distorts that into this idea of: "Oh,
this is all about sex. Why are you teaching our kids about sex?" And
the thing is, I don't want to teach your kids about sex. I don't even
want to talk to your kids. I just want your kids to know that they are
safe and they are loved regardless of whether they are straight, gay,
cisgender or transgender, whatever. We want to create a society where
everybody is welcomed and there is not this hierarchy of "Well I'm
better than you because I'm straight, I'm better than you because I'm
cis-gender." And that has historically been the battle that queer
people have had to fight. And so it's remarkable in many ways and I
think that now is the time that we really have to be outspoken about
these things in order to create a better life for the kids that are
growing up right now. I -- Again, I can't imagine what it's like to be a
middle-schooler or a high-schooler right now, seeing that there are
over half-a-thousand anti-LGBTQIA bills moving across the United
States. I don't know what that would do to my self-esteem as a
teenager. And it makes me really worried about -- about these kids.
I've never particularly thought of myself as a young person going into
politics. I got into politics out of necessity. And I started to look
around and I started to realize things are changing and not necessarily
for the better for particular communities and, in particular, the
LGBTQIA community. And my sort of a-ha moment, if you will, was the
Trump election in late 2016. When the Trump administration started in
early 2017, I felt that I needed to -- I felt that I needed to use my
platform as a drag performer and as a community figure to promote
LGBTQIA rights and to promote our inclusion. And so I started doing a
lot of parodies of folks in the Trump administration. I did a number of
parodies -- you know, Betsy DeVos, Kellyanne Conway, Malania Trump.
And part of the reason that I continue to do this throughout the Trump
administration was because I would do these performances which -- in my
mind -- they were satirical performances but they were also educational
to let you know what was happening. You're being entertained but also
you're learning that the administration is not necessarily -- Actually
not even not necessarily but just flat out not on our side. And I felt
that it was really important to draw people in. I think a lot of people
are turned off by -- just by the idea of politics. It can seem really
intimidating -- especially if you don't feel like you know everything
about politics. But here's the thing, everybody knows what they feel
inside is right or wrong.
Marianne Williamson: Right.
@Maebe_A_Girl: And
this is absolutely in my mind what politics is all about. I'm here,
you know, standing before you having this conversation and I'm running
for Congress because I need to let everybody know that I feel this is
what I think is right or wrong and if you agree with me vote for me, if
you don't agree with me, vote for somebody else. But I want to live in a
world where folks accept and tolerate everybody. Tolerance? I'm
really starting to really dislike that word because I don't want to just
be tolerated, I want to be fully integrated and celebrated, you know?
Marianne Williamson: It still implies judgement.
@Maebe_A_Girl: Like
"Well, okay, alright, we'll let you in the room. We'll let you in the
room but we're not going to let you have the microphone for very long."
And, here's the thing, Marianne, I host drag shows every single week. I
am best on the microphone. Give me the microphone because I will tell
you what I have to say. And what I have to say is that we deserve -- we
deserve equity and inclusion. And unfortunately, most of the parents
that actually were in the room had kids in the Glendale school district
and are in support of LGBTQIA inclusion. The school board is in support
of LGBTQIA inclusion. And again, this is all age appropriate. You
know, the way that you talk to second graders.
Marianne
Williamson: In a democracy, these are considered moderate positions.
What you were saying, though, I agree so much. If people -- People are
living so much on the edge. People are living just to survive. 70% of
Americans now report living with economic stress. So I agree with
everything you just said.
And we're stopping there. Yesterday,
we noted the first half of the video and the plan was to note the
rest. I had some "[. . .]" in yesterday's and that wasn't me editing
anyone, it was skipping. I thought it might have been the connection
but I've streamed it again and it's edits. Which is fine, but it throws
off the last two minutes of the video because there are jump cuts and
it's harder to follow.
The full segment is now up at Marianne's YOUTUBE channel and we'll note that video.
So let's talk about what took place with that video: Marianne found her voice and found a reason to argue vote for her.
So
many claims that this person (man usually -- Marianne and Republican
Nikki Hayley are the only two women currently competing for a political
party's presidential nomination) or that is strong.
But
strength isn't being a bully which rules out all the GOP hopefuls
except for Chris Christie. Strength also isn't staying silent. Robert
F. Kennedy Jr. is not exhibiting strength when he refuses to stand up
for an attacked segment of our country.
It's a
segment, yes. And some can whine, "Such a small one!" It really
doesn't matter the size -- unless you're a size queen -- the issue is
are you going to defend those wrongly attacked?
If
you want our votes, we need to feel we can trust you, we need to feel
if we were wrongly attacked, you would stand up for us. That's how you
show true strength. You don't just chase a poll, you stand up and speak
out for freedoms and democracy.
If you can't do that, really what can you do?
Marianne
also gets that this segment issue is nonsense. We're not in the atomic
age. We've moved on. But did we learn anything? The atomic age was
about discovering via splitting things and breaking them up and
destroying them.
I see a lot of those types speaking right now and trying to convince you to support them.
Marianne
is getting at the reality that it's not the end. That is not the end.
If that's the end, everything is a broken toy. The point of addressing
the issues in this country is not to divide but to synthesize. And we
need to be able to address issues such as transphobia, such as racism . .
. The Mrs. Max Blumenthals don't get that you have to put it together,
you have to pull it together to address any issue. The Mrs. Max
Blumenthals think addressing the war on LGBTQ+ Americans is pulling the
focus -- honestly, what focus is there in the United States? -- and
detracting from other issues. No, it's not. These are interrelated
issues. How we look at one another is directly related to how we look
at others. When we let hate merchants divides us as Americans through
othering, we set the trap for them doing the same with foreign
countries.
Marianne is turning her campaign around. She's showing that she understands how complex and interrelated this all is.
That's bravery and that's inspiring.
Applause for Marianne.
Normally that's where we stop in the discussion. Not this time.
Now
we're going to talk about the fake asses and how they try to deceive
and pretend and all their fakery. On Twitter, this is the most
streamed video that Marianne has posted to Twitter. It also has
reactions. A lot. Many are positive and that's great. But we're going
to focus on the negative reactions because I
don't like liars and liars have been using the internet for hate
campaigns and getting away with it. Let's review the 'people' leaving
negative feedback to Marianne's discussion.
Serious Joint Avatar is just a transphobe and that's all we need to know there.
@ladywhateve
will not support Marianne now because of this video, she insists.
Liar. You were never
supporting her. You support Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and have done so for
weeks. It's not that hard to find out what you've been writing about
online. You're a liar who left a comment trying to make it appear that
you were with Marianne or on the fence but then this video! Liar, you
have Robert as your
background on Twitter. Lying trash. You're trying to Bud-Light
Marianne.
vic
proulx takes time out from his conspiracy theories to insist Marianne
is wasting time with this issue. Well don't waste your time, vic, I'm
sure there's some solar flare somewhere turning people into transmutants
with super powers and we all so need your expertise on that. P.S.
you're a Robert F. Kennedy Jr. supporter and never planned on voting for
Marianne -- go away, liar.
HLY
SPRT took time away from doing racist Tweets to lament that this isn't a
"kitchen table issue." Clearly, judging by other Tweets, you're
another
Robert supporter and I hope you are joking with your fears that the
government will chemically castrate White people, I hope you're not that
racist and that much of a KKK freak. It may be time for
the media to start reporting on the mindset of Robert's supporters.
zombywoof
is a Tim Pool freak (right-winger) who is bothered that only a small
percent of the population in the US is trans. And only a small portion
is on death row. The most recent estimate is 2750. So I guess that
means we stop working on that issue as well? Idiot.
Emma
M Tenorio tells Marianne that she just lost her vote -- she's got to
protect her children. Hope Emma plans to protect them from lies
because, turns out, Marianne didn't lose Emma's vote, she didn't have
it. Emma's another crazy for Robert and the crazies do him no good.
KanefireX,
community members may remember, was a racist in the '00s and has now
resurfaced on Twitter where he still is but is a racist but also now a Michael Tracey
fan. He wants Marianne to know that transgender is all a Marxist
ploy. Thanks for taking time away from bleaching your white sheets to
share that, Kanefire X.
PoppingWeasels
wants a refund on his 2020 donation. For what she did this week.
Doesn't work that way but good thing you got behind RFK Jr, right? Three weeks
ago, wassn't it? Not planning to vote for her but wants people to think
this interview sent him reeling. Liar.
Please
grasp, this is what these con artists do. They pretend they're
customers of Target, for example, and are never ever going to Target
again because of a Pride display. They're liars. By the way, Emma
above also wants everyone to go to Target and f**k things up because of the
Pride display. She loves Robert. Robert, I'm seriously worried about
the sick f**ks you are attracting.
DoNotDivideUs
is anti-trans as his account listed makes clear and so does the other account from which
he posted another outcry Tweet about Marianne interviewing a
transgender person.
Again,
we focused on the crazies. They've been around for sometime. Liars
online who are part of an organized attack machine. They didn't always
attack. The first time the media ever encountered them was in 2008 when
THE NEW YORK TIMES took forever to grasp that the "thousands" of Barack
Obama supporters were actually about 150. It took the paper that long
to notice it -- we noticed it right away. Several of the multiple
posters had trouble keeping their identities straight and would get
confused as to what they had posted under which name. (To their credit,
a TIMES political reporter did e-mail to say "you were right" when they
figured out what was going on.) It's astroturf and it pretends to be a
movement. They're doing it online right now with the attacks on THE
LITTLE MERMAID and DISNEY+ (on those attacks, please read Stan's "Erin Johnson is a racist who writes for SCREEN RANT" and "THE LITTLE MERMAID has brought in twice as much money as what?").
They're trying to create the impression of a wave that's really not
there for them. It's a result of saps like Dana Milbank who saw the
2004 election as his own world of popularity and didn't grasp that he
was on a mailing list that was being worked. How dumb do you have to
be?
In
Norristown, Kennedy condemned the “toxic polarization that is really
destroying our country.” Like his father in the 1960s, he lauds a
similar crusade, but is instead campaigning on his belief that leaders
in the Democratic Party today amplify division and push lies.
The junior Kennedy has his family's name but
lacks his ancestors' popularity and is perceived differently in the
public eye −in part for pushing anti-vaccine views that are at odds with
what government agencies and prominent public health experts say. More
diseases, like measles, can occur in communities with pockets of
unvaccinated people, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
I've
seen you buddy up to Tucker Carlson, Glenneth Greenwald and Matt Taibbi
-- transphobes one and all. Your niece telling me you're not a
transphobe and that you do not hate LGBTQ+ people isn't enough. You
need to find your voice. You've been more than willing to meet with any
crazy in the world. It's time for you to find the voice to defend the
most targeted in the community. You're the one invoking your father --
and you should -- but he wouldn't be silent when a minority population
was targeted.
Some
of that, I would say, involves some private conversations. I think if
you appear on some public platforms with them, you offer them critiques
-- and again I think you're capacity to do this is greater than folks
like ours because of who you are. But you can engage people in what you
were term "loving critiques" on public platforms so that folks can be
clear about what your position is as you try to show people and win
people over to new positions without necessarily having a huge fight
that's good for television but doesn't move people over to certain
political positions. [. . .] But if you go to an event that's an event
to boost them and you only praise them then of course they're your
friend but again I think it diminishes your stature and who you are
because it looks like to the rest of us who are seeing it that you're
not offering critical love as you stated earlier about some of the
organizations and people that you care for but instead it feels as if
you're endorsing their platforms and who they are and their ideals
That's
Kamau Franklin offering some wise words to Cornel West (we'll include
the video in a moment) that equally apply to Robert.
Marianne's
running a real campaign. At present, Robert's not. That is reality.
And. Robert, if your scared that all the crazies will fall away if you defend
those in need of defending? You really aren't your father's son.
At
least the crazies are in front of Robert -- not inside him. Cornel's
got crazies all around him as well as inside him. A number of people
have rightly called Cornel a womanizer and expressed serious concerns
regarding what he will and won't do with regards to women. Keesha and I
are tracking his statements as a result. For example, since 'brother'
Cornel got into the race? His Tweets have noted "brothers" 13 times and
sisters only 5. And none together. There's a reason women are wary of
Cornel. He chooses his own words and this is on him. He's a wordsmith so his words especially matter.
We'll
come back to Twitter in a second. BLACK POWER MEDIA interviewed Cornel
this week -- their second interview since he announced he was running
to win the Green Party's presidential nomination -- which the Green
Party will decided in the summer of next year. Kamou's quote earlier is
from the video below.
The interview is noted at the top of yesterday's morning's THE REMIX MORNING SHOW below.
No
problem streaming THE REMIX MORNING SHOW, but I've only gotten through
parts of the episode with the interview in it. I have the same aversion
that I had when Bully Boy Bush would be on TV.
And
for those convinced Cornel is running a great campaign -- what world
are you living in -- let's note the Tweet that Cornel has pinned to the
top of his Twitter feed.
He's
not even The People's Party nominee now. In yesterday's REMIX (above)
it's rightly noted by Renee Johnston that his campaign website is out of
date and needs to be updated. Yes, and so does his Twitter feed.
Transgender
people have always existed. Some Native American tribes saw them as
healers. In terms of non-native Americans, it shouldn't be that
difficult for people to grasp the term "intersex" -- when people are
born with both sets of sex organs. We've noted this before and that,
for decades, parents would then choose whether or not a child would be a
boy or a girl. Julie Cohen is the director of EVERY BODY -- a
documentary we've noted here and in the community newsletters which
deals with intersex persons. David Oliver (USA TODAY) reports on the documentary (opens this Friday) and notes:
This early surgical intervention is still happening to kids, hence the need for more education. While the documentary certainly covers this trauma, it offers hope through the eyes of activists.
Everyone's
story is different. Some people's parents discover they are intersex
when they're born but others do not know until puberty or beyond. Roth
Weigel, for example, had internal testes and a vagina at birth. The
protocol was to remove the testes – effectively castrating her.
Intersex people are often told to keep quiet about their identities which
can make living their lives tricky, especially when it comes to dating
and sex. It's ultimately up to individuals whether they want to come out
and feel safe to do so.
Even
among progressive circles the word "intersex" leave many scratching
their heads. Cohen says: "I was a little floored by how many people just
in the dinner party conversations that you have ... including people
that are in the therapy world are like, 'Oh, yeah, intersex? What's that
again? Is that like trans or kind of like trans?' Come on people. Get it together!" (Granted, LGBTQ+ terminology has only become very mainstream the last decade or so.)
"There's a huge lack of information," Wall adds, "and there is ignorance, and there's also willful ignorance."
While the community is fighting for legislative change to protect intersex kids, they're also figuring out what intersex culture really looks like.
"There's enough time where trans people have been in community where there's trans culture.
You can talk in a similar language. Intersex people haven't been
together and healed enough to be able to understand what it means to be
in joyful community with each other," Gallo says.
It is past time for people to grow up and grasp the world we live in.
And
for the American Taliban to grasp how crazy they are and how crazy
people around the world are just like them. ALJAZEERA notes that there
was a rage in Baghdad yesterday with crazies running around screaming
(over a holy book burned in Sweden) which resulted in Moqtada's cult
screaming and burning LGBTQ flags. Crazy, sick people. First, they
can't mind their own business. They don't live in Sweden, it's nothing
to rage over. But that's the Taliban, even if you live in another
country, you must do what they say. Second, blame the LGBTQ+ because
you have to have a scapegoat apparently.
Chanell
Perez Ortiz, a 29-year-old Afro-Latina trans woman, was shot and killed
in Carolina, Puerto Rico over the weekend. She is at least the 13th
trans or gender-nonconforming person to be reported killed in the U.S.
this year, according to Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents.
Also
known as Uvita, Ortiz was a cosmetologist who loved fashion, makeup,
and hair, according to her social media and an interview with her
stepmother by WAPA TV.
According to Telemundo Puerto Rico,
Ortiz was shot to death early Sunday morning on the highway behind a
university in Carolina, just east of the capital city of San Juan, where
seven to eight bullet casings were identified at the scene. Although
media reports have misgendered and deadnamed her, Police Commissioner
Antonio López Figueroa said the murder was being investigated as a
transfemicide in a statement to Telemundo Puerto Rico.
“The
agents are working on the investigation process that will lead to
determining the true motive for death,” Figueroa told Telemundo. “As our
duty dictates in all cases of violent deaths, we will not stop working
until we clarify this death.”
This is
about people's lives. In ten years, when we're all the same page, I
don't want one of these jerks to be forgiven -- not on the right and
certainly not on the left. These jerks have mocked transgendered
people, they have fun of them. They have treated this as all a big
joke. And it's not a joke and it's not funny. I don't know which of
them is more worthy of our scorn -- the ones who are right wing hate
merchants and would have only found someone else to target if they
stepped back or the ones on the left who are mocking? And what do we
say about the 'great silent' on the left? YOUTUBERS and writers who
could be speaking out but stay silent -- because they're partners with a
YOUTUBER who makes fun of transgenders? Because they want to keep the
key to the clubhouse? The key to the clubhouse is especially motivating
the token women who got into the clubhouse and know that their
membership could be terminated at any point. So they stay silent and
support these toxic males and hope and pray that we don't catch to their
hypocrisy.
It’s
legislation that’s been closely watched by a self-described, life-long
conservative Republican and his transgender son, who said it’s not
external pressure, but an internal struggle.
“I
did it because I knew it was the right, next-best thing in my life and I
wouldn’t have done it if it wasn’t fully something that my heart and my
mind and my spirit told me was the best thing for me,” said Ashton
Colby. “So absolutely no pressure. And I’m so happy I did transition.”
“Transgender
people, the folks that I’ve met, dear souls, young people trying to
figure it out, you know, deep crisis,” said Rick Colby, Ashton’s father.
“And a lot of times, it’s a spiritual crisis: ‘Who am I? Why am I
here?’ And they’re trying to figure it out, and to see this assault wave
of rhetoric against them…”
Rick
Colby has been a loyal Republican since Ronald Reagan was in the White
House, but he doesn’t recognize the party that’s expending so much time
and energy opposing trans rights.
Noted
transphobe and hate merchant Jonathan Turley, the bigot of GWU, has
lied repeatedly and has also commented on things he knows nothing
about. Why? He's a schill for Ron DeSantis and the right-wing,
American-Taliban section of the Republican Party. He really needs
DISNEY to fail due to his own personal obsessions. So he has lied and
lied again. He's ignored studios in real trouble -- PARAMOUNT+ -- in
his efforts to smear and attack DISNEY. How's that working out for him Shannon Power (NEWSWEEK) reports:
Despite DeSantis waging war on Disney however, the public appears to still have positive feelings toward the company.
In fact, nearly 50 percent of people surveyed in research for a Newsweek poll viewed Disney in a "favorable" or "very favorable" light.
In research conducted by Redfield and Wilton, 1,500 eligible U.S. voters were asked: "To what extent, if at all, do you have a favorable or unfavorable view of Disney?"
A
total of 46 percent of those polled said they had positive feelings
about the company, with 20 percent saying they had a "very favorable"
view and 26 percent saying their view of Disney was "favorable."
That is in comparison to 13 percent who had an "unfavorable" view of the company.
The
poll which was carried out on June 25, found 11 percent of people had a
"very unfavorable" view of Disney while 24 percent were on the fence
with neither a "favorable nor unfavorable" opinion.
A further six percent of the respondents said they did not know what view they held of Disney.
The poll of popular opinion is not the only battle Disney is winning against DeSantis, its social media has also had a boost over the past month.
Disney gained 44,742 new Twitter followers
in the 30 days up to June 21, bringing its total to almost 10.3
million, according to the social media statistics website Social Blade.
It witnessed a further boost on Instagram,
where Disney gained 278,550 followers in the same amount of time.
Disney's official Instagram account now has 37,975,982 followers, making
it the 199th most followed account on the social media platform.
But
Disney claimed the second spot for the second year in a row — which
could be seen as somewhat surprising in light of the public clashes it
has had with Florida Gov. and Republican presidential hopeful Ron
DeSantis over its political views. Disney has opposed the state’s “Don’t
Say Gay” legislation, and DeSantis has responded with a number of oversight and other measures affecting Disney’s operations in Florida. This led Disney to sue DeSantis,
claiming the prospective Republican presidential candidate waged a
“relentless campaign to weaponize government power” against the company.
And Disney has also scrapped plans on a roughly $1 billion investment in a new corporate campus in Florida that would have relocated more than 2,000 employees.
We're going to wind down with a video.
Several
e-mails complaining about the above -- public e-mail, not the one for
community members. Are these drive-by e-mails or are people being
sincere?
I have no idea. But if you're expecting me to tsk-tsk Olayemi Olurin over the video, let me disappoint you.
First off, if I'd weighed in yesterday, my commentary might upset you more than her's did.
Secondly,
even if you don't agree with her, I hope you understand that she was
speaking honestly. We need to all listen to one another better.
Third, "It is not effective!" one person snaps in an e-mail. What is it supposed to be effecting?
It may just be an attempt to share and be received by others who feel the same.
This
is a serious topic and it has upset a lot of us. The Supreme Court is
out of control, precedents no longer matter, everything is on a whim and
the cabal works overtime to shred the rights of American people.
I'd say that's pretty good reason to be outraged.
If
you'll go back and listen and if you were sincerely someone who
supported Olayemi in the past, as eight of you insist, I hope you'll
understand what she's sharing and why.
And before we can ever move forward -- 'effective'ly -- we need to understand each other.
Again, I have no problem with what she said, sorry.
We
can all learn from it. Because no one owes you their vote. No one. A
vote belongs to an individual. The individual can use it however they
want. So it's wrong to assume that the Democratic Party is owed your
vote or any political party is owed your vote. It's also wrong to
assume that because, as women, some of us get this or that, that all
women -- or all White women -- get the same thing or feel the same way.
White women do not owe anyone their vote. Asian women do not owe
anyone their vote, etc, etc.
If you want to appeal to people you feel are missing the point, you need to make the case to them.
This was not the time for that. That's what we work on after we get off our chests what's bothering us.
You
can't get to that step without being honest about your reaction. Olay
was honest and I thank her for that and I celebrate her for that. The
anger she feels is echoed by so many of us, the Court becomes more
illegitimate with each passing day. The frustration is understandable.
I have no problem with what she said or with what she shared.
Sy
Hersh: “There is an enormous gap between the way the professionals in
the American intelligence community assess the situation [in Ukraine]
and what the White House and the supine Washington press project to the
public by uncritically reproducing the statements of Blinken and his
hawkish cohorts.” https://seymourhersh.substack.com/p/prigozhins-folly
Aaron
Mate is so sad and pathetic. Sy is an informer. That's not in doubt.
He was among the people feeding data about C.I. and myself to the
government. We used FOIA requests to get the files and not only does
C.I. have an amazing memory (known as Memorac in college -- after the
computer in the film DESK SET), she's also a legend for her journals --
her volumes and volumes of journals. We matched up redacted documents
with journal entries and we knew exactly who the rats were. So, no,
Little Junior Aaron, it's not a surprise at all that an informer would
praise the intelligence community. It is a surprise that someone who
represents as left would be so far up Sy's butt that you don't even
grasp what your own words mean. But, hey, you've never been very smart,
have you.
A
feud between two of Trump’s biggest supporters has highlighted ongoing
tension within the MAGA movement. The two divisive faces of the MAGA
Republican party have started sparring with each other, highlighting
rising tensions in the faction.
They
note Lauren Boebert felt the need to announce she doesn't believe in
"space lasers." If you've forgotten, crazy MTG insisted that Jewish
people were controlling the world and doing so with space lasers.
If you missed it, Chelsea Handler on
MTG.
Marjorie
Taylor Greene: I have people come up to me and say crazy things to me
out of the blue in public places that they believe because they read it
on the internet.
Chelsea
Handler: Well if that's not the pot calling the kettle QAnon. This
woman thought 9/11 was a hoax, that the Clintons killed JFK Jr. and that
Jews are in charge of space lasers. But please, don't come at her with
some crazy ideas -- she might believe them.
You think -- you hope -- Hate Merchant Marjorie Taylor Greene can't get worse. But she always does:
Rep.
Marjorie Taylor Greene is promoting her podcast with an image that
shows her pulling up to the U.S. Capitol holding a high-capacity rifle.
The Georgia Republican uses the stylized image as the banner for the Twitter account promoting her "Battleground" podcast.
Greene boasted in
December that the Jan. 6 insurrection would have succeeded if she and
Steve Bannon had planned it, saying "we would have been armed," and she
has repeatedly expressed solidarity with the Capitol rioters.
"I am one of those people," Greene said in October. "That’s exactly who I am.”
I
find that disgusting and appalling. If Democrats take control of the
House in the 2024 elections and Republican Marjorie is still present, I
want her actions examined. This is outrageous. This sullies the
Congress. She should be expelled.
Thursday, June 29, 2023. We look at the 2024 presidential circus.
Marianne
Williamson is running for the Democratic Party's presidential
nomination. She spoke yesterday with Maebeagirl who is running for
Congress. US House Rep Adam Schiff is leaving his seat to seek the
nomination for US senator out of California. Maebe came in second to
him in the race last time and she is running again. Marianne Williamson
spoke with her yesterday.
Marianne
Williamson: Tell me how you see clearly -- we've got a targeted group
in the United States, right? I mean, one of the things I've talked
about is, if elected president, I will confer a special protection
status onto the transgender community. You are transgender yourself.
Tell me how you see the situation and what we need to do.
@Maebe_A_Girl: Absolutely.
So, first of all, thank you for having this chat with me. I think it's
so important -- especially considering that you're running for [sic]
president of the United States. I think that people need to hear about
your stances on these things and hear that you're having conversations
with real trans people about this because historically -- or at least in
the last five to ten years -- trans people have been left out of the
conversation about trans legislation which is so twisted in my mind. As
a good friend of mine always says, "If you are not at the table, then
you are on the menu." And trans people -- queer people in general -- are
very much on the menu right now. And we do not have nearly enough
representation for people like me in governments all across the United
States. So, for me, it's interesting because I've been running since
2019. The first election that I ran for was 2020 for the US House and,
you know, during that time we were seeing a lot of anti-LGBTQIA
sentiments and rhetoric. And, you know, I think with the election of --
going back to a Democratic president back in 2020, I think a lot of
people thought that would ease up in a bit. But unfortunately, it's
gotten worse. This has been an upward trend since about the mid-2010s.
Pretty much since Trump was elected to office and it keeps getting
worse because every year I find myself saying, "This has been the worst
year in history for anti-LGBTQIA." 2023 totally surpassses 2022 which
totally surpassed 2021, etc. There's over half-a-thousand anti-LGBTQIA
bills moving across the US -- everywhere from state legislatures to also
the federal legislature. We're seeing far right representatives like
Marjorie Taylor Greene introducing legislation at the federal level
which would severely restrict the rights -- and in recognition of queer
people, you know, these are anti-LGBTQIA bills in general but, more
specifically, most of them are anti-trans bills. There's been a number
of anti-drag bills that have been introduced. What many people probably
don't recognize is that anti-drag bills are also anti-trans bills.
When you introduce a bill that requires you to dress according to your
gender assigned at birth, that is not only going to effect drag
performers but it's directly going to effect trans people. And as the
famous drag queen and trans person from RUPAL'S DRAG RACE, Monica
Beverly Hills, always says, "Drag is what you do but trans is who you
are." So we are attacking not only people's occupations but we are
attacking people's identities. And I think we have often think [. .
.]. You don't even have to be gay or queer to do drag. Anybody can do
drag. In fact, a number of trans people do drag. Me, myself, I
discovered my trans identity when I started doing drag. Drag is
oftentimes a sort of safe way to experiment safely with your gender
identity in a way that doesn't feel so permanent. And, for me, I
discovered that I was a trans person early on because I started to
realize while everybody else was taking off the makeup and the hair and
the costumes after a gig, I wanted to keep it all on because it felt --
it made me feel more like myself.
Marianne Williamson: Right.
@Maebe_A_Girl: And that's a realization that a lot of folks have.
Marianne
Williamson: Okay, I have several questions I want to ask. You were
talking about Marjorie Taylor Greene and anti-trans bills. I wanted to
ask abou tthe anti-trans bills, I wanted to ask about the anti-drag
bills and I also want to ask more about you -- your journey to this
point. You just mentioned your journey -- how much being in drag shows
had to do with it but I think all of us are more interested in what the
personal story is there?
@Maebe_A_Girl: You
should say that it is okay to be you as you are. We will love you and
we welcome you to be you as you are. We're not saying, "Come to our
side, come join us and be queer and trans." That's not the case. In
fact, it couldn't even work like that. You know, I grew up in the late
90s, early 2000s. I graduated high school in 2004. And I remember what
it was like to be a young queer person without any sort of queer
representation in the media aside from WILL & GRACE and QUEER AS
FOlK. And I remember how othered I felt and how different I felt and
how afraid I felt to come out as a queer person at that time because of
the fact that it felt so othered. I can't even imagine what it is like
in 2023 for somebody who is in middle school or high school who is
coming into their queer gay trans identity and looking around and not
just seeing that there are some people that support but there are so
many people that don't and the fact that there is legislation to try to
erase us and to try to stop us from existing. When laws attempt to
restrict gender affirming healthcare, they're trying to restrict the
existence of trans people. And this is not just a legislative issue but
it's also a social issue because when laws -- when bills are being
introduced and when they're passed into laws particularly in states like
Tennessee, Florida, Texas, it also gives a pass to people to then
continue othering LGBTQIA people. So it's not just a legislative thing,
but it's a social thing. And when people don't feel safe going out at
their true authentic selves, is that freedom? No, it's not.
Marianne
Williamson: You know, I was contacted a few months ago about a bill
that was about to take place -- anti-drag show bill in Tennessee and I
was asked to attend a protest the night before the bill was meant to go
into effect at East Tennessee University and I went and it was very
inspiring. And there was so much protest and there was so much energy
around it and ultimately a judge did strike down the law which was, of
course, a very, very good thing.
That's
a little over half the posted video. We'll open with the second half
tomorrow. We're not treating this as a one day thing. LGBTQ+ people
are being targeted and have been for months now.
You
have hate merchants expanding the targeting because it just starts with
LGBTQ+, then it moves outward. They are the American Taliban. In
Texas, for example, the GOP has moved towards definiing what a woman can
wear and what a man can wear. This has nothing to do with lesbians or
gays or transgendered people. This is about their hate and their need
to control. I can not believe that Greg Abbott's regime thinks it can
impose clothing choices on adults and get away with it but I also can't
believe how mild the reaction nationally has been to this.
The
GOP isn't afraid to trash LGBTQ+ people. In fact, outside of Chris
Christie, they're all doing it as they run for the Republican Party's
presidential nomination.
Elsewhere?
I
see Joe Biden stepping up. I see Joe Biden ready for this fight. I've
waited and waited to see others. Like Marianne, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
also wants the Democratic Party's presidential nomination. He and
Marianne have both argued that the party needs a televised debate on
this nomination. Why?
Until today, I haven't seen a need. Marianne's demonstrated a need.
Mrs.
Max Blumenthal is a hateful piece of trash and she's stupid. She
thinks the issues above don't matter when they go to exactly who we are
and what we do.
Don't kid yourself that we can
other at home and not other overseas. Don't kid yourself that this
othering isn't what forsters war. You've got get your own house clean
to tackle other things.
Respect starts at home.
Marianne's ready for the discussion. Love Robert, but he's yet to show anything to demonstrate that he is.
And
let's rope in Cornel West who is not a presidential candidate. He is
running for the Green Party's presidential nomination and he may get it,
he may not. But I don't want his garbage of 'brother and sister'
nonsense where he preaches at length but never says a damn word worth
anything.
Marianne demonstrated she can have
the needed conversations to get this nation back on track. If Robert
and Cornel think they're up to it, it's their move now.
Noted transphobe Jonathan Turley Tweeted a confession yesterday:
The Hill is out with my column on the Court's ruling in Moore v. Harper and "the coup" that never was......Liberal
law professors and pundits have filled the media with dire predictions
that the Supreme Court was about to carry out a long-planned “coup” and
“power grab”--one even wrote that the court could be on the brink of
establishing “one-party rule” in the United States.
The
bigot of George Washington University must feel very comfortable at FOX
"NEWS" is he's publicly copping to what we already told you: He's not
of the left or liberal. You caught it, right, he Tweeted "Liberal law
professors and pundits" -- he pointed the finger at them . . . from
beneath his rock. Everyone let Lawrence Tribe know. He called it long
ago. Thanks for finally confession, Swirley, but, no, thanks for lying
in your Tweet. His analysis is wrong and he knows it. I can't speak
until the Court decides on the bigot lawsuit out of Colorado -- one
Turley was an 'unofficial' advisor on -- disclosure, Turley, try
practicing it -- but after that decision is reached, I'll explain why
things are actually worse. Don't let Turley's lies lull you into a
false sense of security.
Let's
wade back into the race for presidential nominations in various political
parties. The Greens do not have a nominee yet. Cornel West wants to be
that person and, thanks to Bri-Bri's misleading 'reporting,' some don't
grasp that. Check out Betty's site where she noted replies to Bri's
pimping of Cornel and the explosion that followed her trying to play the
race card. (Betty is correct, I have long said Bri's not authentic to
African-Americans because she came up the White side of the media.
She's not a crossover artist because she can't crossover. MOTOWN
artists, in the 60s, for example crossed over -- having success on the
soul charts and -- this is the crossover -- on the pop charts. Bri
can't get near the soul charts. She's basically this decade's Pat Boone
with all that entails.
Emily Jacobs (WASHINGTON EXAMINER) reports that
Donnie says Ronnie's immigration plan (to persecute immigrants) isn't
that impressive and just copies his own. In addition to squabbling over
who has the bigger one, the two are also fighting over a boy, Pedro
Gonzalez. Donald had him first. But now he's Ron's steady. And, now
that he's no longer in the safety of Big Don's arms, poor Pedro, group
chats have emerged revealing what a disgusting and and racist twerp
Pedro is. But who leaked them? Who would have leaked them? Who? Tracy Connor (DAILY BEAST) notes the Little Ronnie's camp is pointing the finger at . . . Donald:
DeSantis
has not publicly commented on the story about Gonzalez’s messages, but
Breitbart noted that the Never Back Down PAC, which backs DeSantis,
called the messages “inexcusable.” Meanwhile, DeSantis’ campaign
mouthpiece, Christina Pushaw, liked a tweet about how “nasty” the Trump-DeSantis feud has become.
“And
to be clear I’m mostly talking about the Trump side,” the tweet read.
“I’ve seen some comments from people on the DeSantis side I don’t care
for too, but it’s consistently the Trump surrogates who seem to have no
bottom to how low they’ll sink to support their candidate.”
Chronicles
also had not commented publicly on the Breitbart revelations, but it’s
worth noting that when Gonzalez was accused last year of
antisemitism—after he made crude comments about the “physiognomy” of two
prominent Jews—magazine executive editor Edward Welsch wrote a defense of him titled, “That Old Anti-Semitism Smear.”
On
Tuesday, Gonzalez tweeted that he was grateful for the support he was
getting, including from some Trump supporters. One backer of the
ex-president, however, was not in that category: Donald Trump Jr.
retweeted the Breitbart story three times Tuesday night.
Of all of them, Donald
Trump will always stand the best chance of being declared criminally
insane. That's why his never-ending list of complaints and whines
include that FOX "NEWS" is out to destroy him, "The
coloring, distortions, everything are just so bad. They must sit and
look at 100 different shots, and then take the 10 absolute worst."
He's accusing FOX "NEWS" of deliberately selecting and using the worst
photographs of him. The big surprise there is that, after all this
time, Donald believes that good photographs of him exist. He has looked
in the mirror, right?
Meanwhile Oliver O'Connell (INDEPENDENT) notes
that Paul Ryan (who at least takes an attractive photo) has declared
nominating Donald for president again to be "a disaster" and that
"anyone not named Trump" would be better. Do voters agree?
The public holds a less favorable view of Donald Trump's actions following his recent legal battles, according to one poll.
A survey of 1,500 voters, conducted by Redfield & Wilton Strategies exclusively for Newsweek on
June 25, found that fewer people now believe the legal issues facing
the former president are "politically motivated," compared to a poll
from April taken weeks after Trump pleaded not guilty to 37 felony
charges as part of the falsifying business records investigation in New
York.
When
those responding to the survey asked which statement they agreed with
more, 47 percent said that the legal issues Trump is facing are
"primarily the result of his own actions which appear to have been
illegal"—a 13-point increase from the April survey (34 percent).
In
the June poll, a further 38 percent believe the investigations are the
result of "politically motivated attacks" by Trump's opponents, down 19
points from the April results (57 percent).
Jared Glans (THE HILL) cites a "poll from National Public Affairs released Wednesday [which]
showed Trump with 41 percent support among likely GOP primary voters in
the state, up from 39 percent last month. DeSantis came in second with
18 percent, a 5-point drop from the 23 percent he had last month. Former
South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley (R) came in third with 12 percent,
followed by South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott (R) with 10 percent. All other
candidates included in the poll had support in the single digits." DeSantis dropped 5 percentage points in the poll?"
If
you missed it, the tiny tot is said to be less than five feet and seven
inches and possibly is actually so short that he was refused admittance
on the It's A Small World After All ride, hence his war on DISNEY.
Having destroyed Florida's economy with his corruption and incompetence,
Little Ronnie needed something to distract Florida voters -- especially
from the huge bills for his never-ending lawsuits. So he declared war
on DISNEY.
He has since
used that war on the campaign trail trying to portray himself as big and
tall -- or taller than his shrimpy height -- but now . . . a twist.
Attorneys
for The Walt Disney Co. and Ron DeSantis are proposing very different
timelines for the start of a federal trial over the company’s claim of
retaliation by the Florida governor.
Disney
proposed a timeline with a trial to start on July 15 of next year.
DeSantis’ attorneys, along with those of other defendants in the case,
want it put off to Aug. 4, 2025, after next year’s presidential
election, according to a court filing. DeSantis launched his White House
bid last month.
No, no, no, no.
Ronnie's used his battle with DISNEY to prove he's fit for the
presidency. Wouldn't be fair to voters for them to have to wait for the
outcome. Ronnie's made it his own performative measure. America
deserves to know what the court will find. He's wasted millions of tax
payer dollars on this fiasco. Is he right, is he wrong? He's running
for president now. He's no longer just defrauding Florida's population
and leaving them deeply in debt while harming their tourist economy.
He's trying to be in charge of all the states. So, sorry, he shouldn't
be allowed to delay the hearing. It needs to happen before the
presidential election so the American people can see what they might be
in store for and vote accordingly. Of course, he could always drop out
of the race if he wants. Then he can argue to push the hearing back.
But having flitted back and forth across the country, singing his own
praises while touting his fight with DISNEY, he's made this a criteria
for judging whether or not he would be an effective US president.
Should we note polling? AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds
Joe's approval rating to be 41% The poll has a margin of error of +/-
3.9. Most interesting finding in the poll? It's about Vice President
Kamala Harris. Favorables are 37% while 50% have a negative opinion.
That seems bad. It may be. But she's gotten nothing but negative
publicity -- whether it's warranted or not can be discussed by others.
The interesting factor is that 12% "don't know enough about her to
say." She's in her third year as vice president and some are still
withholding judgment. That's rather interesting. If she managed to
enthrall all of the undecided she's be basically split down the middle
in terms of positive approval and negative approval.
THE NEW YORK TIMES has a very poorly fact checked piece on Robert. If you want to read it, click here to read is on MSN
and not at THE TIMES. I have neither the time nor the desire to repeat
myself. We covered NYT and all their errors and lies -- Yes, it is a
lie to credit someone in your piece with a title that they do not have,
the title on the masthead is the title they hold, you can't explain that
away. But the writer was a friend of the person he interviewed -- not
disclosed in the article -- so his friend got whatever he wanted -- even
a made up title. It's these basic lies -- not errors, these are lies,
I've confronted them offline, they know it's a lie and they think it's
funny and giggle -- that destroy the paper's reputation time and again.
It's refusing to accurately report on Janet Jackson when you decide to
wade in. If you're going to cover her, you better get her number of
number one hits right, for example. But you just lie and we're all
supposed to be okay with that. It's the lying, not just the errors.
It's the scope. Coretta Scott King passes away -- a historical figure,
an activist, someone most of us looked up to and admired. And? Gail
Collins is writing unsigned editorials about her friend -- minor
playwright Wendy -- passing away and featuring one column after another
about Wendy. How many columns and editorials did Coretta get?
Zero.
Gail
didn't figure Coretta warranted attention. And I'm at the end of my
ropes on tip-toeing around this topic. If wehadn't shamed Bob Herbert,
he never would have (briefly) noted her in a column many weeks after she
died.
So not a fan of
the paper, fully aware of it's racism, of it's new anti-trans spin,
aware of so much. But I don't do greatest hits. This isn't a jukebox
musical.
We'll note this and see if you can catch what a huge error it is:
“The
New York Times, which is in this room today,” he said, as an audience
member pointed down at the Times reporter’s seat, prompting a chorus of
boos so angry, Mr. Kennedy’s campaign manager — the former Democratic
presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich — told the audience member to
stop it.
Dennis Kucinich was the Democratic presidential candidate?
Wow. I must have dropped acid that whole year because I'm pulling a blank on that.
Oh,
wait, it's not an issue of acid, it's an issue of the paper getting it
wrong again. Dennis tried to get the Democratic Party's presidential
nomination -- in 2004 and 2008. He didn't. John Kerry and Barack Obama
were the Democratic presidential candidates in those two presidential
election years.
Again, NYT
offers an error, a lie or just racism/transphobia or some other hatred
for others that they try to dress up in a guise of sophistication.
Forty-four
percent of registered voters say they are willing to consider
supporting a third-party or independent presidential candidate if
President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump are the two major
party nominees in 2024 — and the group includes more Democrats than
Republicans, according to new NBC News polling.
You
think Donald ran with conspiracy nut job nonsense when he refused to
acknowledge he was beaten fair and square in the 2020 election?
Meet
Dario Hunter, Jill Stein, Ajamu Baraka and other nut jobs who insisted
that Dario was robbed! Robbed! Lazy ass couldn't even Tweet once a
week but there was a conspiracy, he insisted, and they conspired to
steal the nomination from him.
Who did?
Kevin Zeese and Margaret Flowers!
Having spread lies about Margaret, Jill Stein has a lot of nerve trying to invoke Margaret to sell Cornel to actual Greens.
Dario
and that denial gang went all over the place and they'd hint in
interview after interview that it was Kevin and Margaret. Then Dario went on air with Cindy Sheehan -- a nice person but a lousy interviewer
and not real strong when it comes to facts. They went to conspiracy con
and back again. And that was the last straw for me which is why we called them out.
Kevin
and I were not friends and I never met him. He read Kat's site and I believe they
exchanged e-mails. My only e-mails from him were to tell me I was too
negative to the Green Party (Ava and I long ago dubbed them ineffective
because they're too busy trying to be the kid sister to the Democratic
Party instead of an actual political party). And that was fine, it
didn't bother me one way or another.
But
after I called out the nonsense Jill and company were pulling, the lies
they were spreading, I got a very kind e-mail from Kevin thanking me
for defending his wife. Kevin's no longer around to defend his wife. I
will defend her on this until the end of time. Jill Stein is a nut
job. She was a lousy presidential candidate -- see Ava and my ""Let the fun begin (Ava and C.I.) -- and
I'm not about to let a lot of liars come along and rewrite history.
Cornel
doesn't believe in democracy -- as his taking a presidential nomination
from The People's Party without (a) being a member or (b) actually
campaigning for the post. And he's not very smart because he was so
eager to get the nomination Chris was negotiating that he never did the
actual work required to find who The People's Party was.
They
do grasp that, right, these idiots whoring for Cornel, that any sane
person is asking how Cornel could be with one political party for nearly
a week and then dump them while claiming he was qualified to be
president? People who are qualified to be president don't end up with a
political 'party' that is racist and has one sexual harassment claim
after another against it.
BLACK
POWER MEDIA interviewed Cornel yesterday. You can check that out at
their YOUTUBE channel. If I stream it, we'll note it tomorrow.
We will wind down with this press release:
