[Jo Ann and I got our second doses of the Moderna C19 vaccine yesterday in Yuba City.  Our overlords are contemplating having all kinds of new travel regulations that require proof of vaccination, or immunity, or studying critical race theory, or something similar.  I wonder if we all will have to start carrying government issued copies of our shot and indoctrination records with us at all times as the next level of controlling our behavior and whereabouts.  gjr]

    What we have here is a failure to communicate.
    Joy Behar Insists, ‘Fictitious’ Antifa ‘Doesn’t Even Exist!’
    “Fuming, Behar declared “fictitious” Antifa, “doesn’t even exist.” She also spread the debunked media myth that a police officer was “bludgeoned to death:”
    “If I was surrounded by people carrying weapons, people erecting nooses, screaming hang Mike Pence, bludgeoning a police officer to death, I might be a little scared. But Ron [Johnson], no he’s not scared of these people. He’s scared of this fictitious idea of Antifa, a thing that doesn’t even exist. He needs to go. He needs to go. And soon.”
    As each host declared the Republican, a racist, Hostin defended BLM as a peaceful movement. She also backed up Behar’s claim that Antifa was made up:

    Odd, the FBI, DC Metro, and the Capitol Police all say no guns were seen or confiscated on Jan 6. No firearms found, used, my any of the insurrectionists. Zero, nada. What kind of insurrection is it when 575 folks out of 77,000 people storm the Bastille with nary a pitchfork? Good grief, there were four Trump rallies in DC that day, putting the crowd(s) well over 100,000, perhaps 200,000 combined, most not under the Capitol Police jurisdiction. Start the insurrection without me.
    “If I was surrounded by people carrying weapons, people erecting nooses, screaming…..”, ROFLMAO. Now, where have we heard that before? And Christopher Wray really inspires my confidence and trust in our institutions.
    The biggest unanswered question I had during the latter part of Trump’s term was why on earth did not Trump fire Chris Wray?? Water under the bridge now. Still can’t believe that Trump let Wray anywhere near law and order. A great mystery.

    Talk about going from hero to zero. It’s Mueller time!
    ‘Convicted Democratic fund-raiser had secret ties to U.S. intelligence’
    Imaad Zuberi’s career took fateful turn after he told prosecutors he couldn’t help federal probe into Trump.
    “…… Records reviewed by Just the News show Zuberi’s lawyers engaged in plea discussions with federal prosecutors that would let him off with a relatively modest $1 million fine and no prison time. All he had to do was cooperate with Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into Russia-Trump collusion and deliver evidence against the president, his inner circle and certain senators and congressman.


    There was just one problem: Zuberi could not deliver the story prosecutors wanted. He did not know of any foreign collusion connected to the inaugural committee. He told prosecutors the money he used for the donations was his own. (The final criminal charges did not even allege his donation to the Trump campaign came from foreign sources.)
    The Justice Department quickly turned on Zuberi, throwing the book at him with threatened charges ranging from tax evasion to illegal lobbying for Sri Lanka to obstruction of justice over the destruction of some of his emails. The legal assault forced the intelligence community to put their work with Zuberi on pause in late 2019, just months after bringing him to Washington for high-level meetings.


    Prosecutors’ relentless pursuit of Trump-Russia collusion not only sidelined a valuable national security asset, it complicated Zuberi’s efforts to defend himself.
    

For instance, the business dealings in Sri Lanka that prosecutors alleged amounted to illegal foreign lobbying also involved some of Zuberi’s intelligence community contacts. The deletion of the emails was actually done by a U.S. intelligence community “scrub team” worried that his secret work might fall into the wrong hands. And some of his dealings with world and American leaders — including his fundraising and political hobnobbing for members of Congress — were undertaken with the government’s knowledge and even encouragement, according to interviews.

    Beale’s Brewery, in Bedford, released the new American-style porter earlier this month, after a disgruntled customer allegedly cursed out the staff for enforcing a mask mandate in its taproom. The beer even takes its name from the first line of the customer’s vulgar message.
    “Your manager is b—- and your beer tastes like hot old orange juice,” reads the original email, which currently appears on the back of each can. The front of each can, meanwhile, is printed with a smiling photo of Brittany Canterbury, the general manager.”

    “Let’s start this week with some energy news. This morning the Energy Information Administration announced that in 2020, for the first time ever, electricity production from nuclear power was greater than electricity from coal. What the first chart here shows is that nuclear output has been steady for the last 15 years, while coal-fired electricity has dwindled, largely because of cheap natural gas (thank you fracking), and the heavy subsidies and purchasing preferences for wind and solar power. Of course, nuclear runs 24/7, unlike wind and solar (hello Texas!), and yet we’re slowly closing up many of our nuclear plants even though most of them have decades of useful life left.”

    The lenders are anxious to ensure there is no backtracking on the reforms that Greece must fulfil under the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) – the official name for the bailout.”

I can’t speak for Paul , but for myself, I mostly only post news items of interest to ruffle your fur with some real news instead of the right wing propaganda you base your beliefs upon, and in doing so, subjecting myself to the, more than stupid, ad homonym screeds of you and your cohort to which I often respond in kind. There is no discussion of the merits or demerits of any ideas that challenge your screeds, just flack. You all don’t really want discussion.. you want approval which you give to each other complete with links. Thus the ‘circle of jerks’ nom-de-plume given by left wing posters. The rule of thumb is ‘agree with George or get insulted by his cohort.’ Calling this blog “discussion” is in and of itself a joke.
    On your claims of “thoroughly discussed issues and events with supporting links” are meant to apply to this blog then think again. Posting links to less than credible (by rational standards) sources, you and yours simply repeat the right wing noise machine talking points. And that you call that to “deepen and expand the discussion of my posted commentaries” is more than laughable. You and yours are just an echo chamber of the typical far right nonsense which has been proven to be nothing more.
