    Ok, this might be a stretch to stay on Bigfoot (it is), but survey says 14% of folks believe in Big Foot.
    September 19, 2016
    Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are the two most unpopular presidential candidates in modern times. But, as I point out in today’s Washington Post, in a year of bipartisan lows, Hillary Clinton recently reached a new low, when an NBC News poll found that just 11% of Americans say she is honest and trustworthy. By contrast, a 2013 Public Policy Polling survey found that 14% of American voters believe in Bigfoot.
    That means more Americans believe that a large, hairy, man-like Sasquatch creature inhabits the forests of North America than believe that Hillary Clinton tells the truth.

    George Flyod news, sorta.
    Gregory was right. The other day I heard the mob was gunning for radio host Chris Plante. Chris Plante? I catch him on occassion in the morning. Whether one listens to Mark and Brain or Armstrong and Getty or NPR or KNCO in the morning, Chris Plante is fun and worth catching now and then as well.
    Anyway, Mr. Plante got banned on Twitter and the mob wants his on a platter. More blood, Twitter ban is not enough.
    His crime? He read word for word available parts of the George Flyod autopsy report. Hate speech! Racist! White Supremist!!! Kill the Beast.
    Gregory was correct. George Floyd had enough Fentanyl in him to kill a horse. And no damage to his tracula…er…throat, breathing thang.

    Yes, and that complete uncensored autopsy and toxicology report has been available online from the authorities since the summer.
    Floyd was a big guy and his fentanyl load probably would have killed a small horse. Not a fully grown Clydesdale with an opioid habit.

    I was going to say wait until they release the autopsy report and all woke hell will break out, but the report is available. Oh my. The Woke knows how to handle such matters of spreading rightwing hate speech supremist ‘misinformation’. Boy, do they ever get upset when things do not go the way they demand they do. Mercy.
    Yep, the report also takes serious consideration to Flyod’s behavior with the at first friendly and tolerate cops before they took him to the ground. Boy, had him in the back seat and he started freaking out, “I can’t breathe, i am cloustraphobic (sic), i am out of here….”. Then to prove race jad anything to do with race…

    Here’s something to ponder
    57 senators who voted to convict Trump represent 76.7 MILLION more Americans than 43 senators who voted to acquit
    Senators voting to impeach represent 61.6% of Americans (202 million)
    Senators voting to acquit represent 38.2% of Americans (125 million)

    Then there’s this poll:
    58% believe Trump should have been convicted, and a similar number (61%) say the charges were serious enough for him to be impeached and put on trial.

    @ 4:24 pm.
    Don’t feel bad, Punchy. Even the impeccable former federal prosecutor extraordinaire, Andrew McCarthy, got horn swoogled and horn diddled by the NYT fake news. Boy, McCarthy pulled a rookie mistake and you got to get up pretty early to pull one over on Andrew C. McCarthy. I can’t believe he trusted the NYT’s info. Oh well, we all get snookered every blue moon. Happens to the best of us……but not often.
    ‘The Times Corrects the Record on Officer Sicknick’s Death, Sort Of’
    Which brings us back to the original Times report. The “updated” version is, to put it mildly, confusing. At first, it attributes to unidentified “authorities” the claim that Sicknick “died from injuries sustained ‘while physically engaging’ with pro-Trump rioters.” The Times then describes Sicknick as “only the fourth member of the force to be killed in the line of duty since its founding two centuries ago.” That assertion is published as if it were an established fact, with no source.
    But has it been established that Sicknick was “killed”? Has it been established that he died from injuries sustained while physically engaging with pro-Trump rioters? To my knowledge, it has not. And even the Times implicitly admits that it is unsure of what it is saying. A few paragraphs later, the same report now states:
    The circumstances surrounding Mr. Sicknick’s death were not immediately clear, and the Capitol Police said only that he had “passed away due to injuries sustained while on duty.”
    This seems very lawyered. Sustained “while on duty” is not the same as a sustained “while physically engaging with pro-Trump rioters” (internal quotes omitted). The Times goes on to acknowledge that “law enforcement officials initially said Mr. Sicknick was struck with a fire extinguisher” but that “weeks later, police sources and investigators were at odds over whether he was hit,” and that “one law enforcement official” (unidentified, of course) says, “medical experts have said [Sicknick] did not die of blunt force trauma.” The latest Capitol Police version of events seems to be, “He returned to his division office and collapsed. . . . He was taken to a local hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries.”
    What injuries? We’re not told.
    Although the Times further concedes that it is “unclear where Mr. Sicknick’s encounter with rioters took place,” the paper weirdly adds that “photos and videos posted by a local reporter during the night of chaos showed a man spraying a fire extinguisher outside the Senate chamber, with a small number of police officers overlooking the area on a nearby stairway.” Okay, but so what? The Times does not say these officers included Sicknick, and the paper’s original claim — which became the House impeachment managers’ formal allegation — was that Sicknick had been hit in the head with a fire extinguisher. In light of the way the Times has already confused matters, to the point of having to provide a not-very-edifying “update,” why speculate that the cited photos and videos are relevant to Sicknick’s death?
