There are so many interesting religious and spiritual leaders who are predicting a Trump win. Some claim to have had visions, some just have deep insight. Some are Christians, others are Lightworkers, but many agree that even though Donald J Trump might be an imperfect vessel, he has been guided to lead this country for a reason. Here's a list of people who support Trump..
Italian Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano has now written two open letters to Donald Trump, most recently on October 30th, whereby he warns Trump of a global conspiracy called The Great Reset, which is tied to the global lockdowns of countries and the catastrophic effect this is having on economies.
As I said when I wrote my letter to you in June, this historical moment sees the forces of Evil aligned in a battle without quarter against the forces of Good; forces of Evil that appear powerful and organized as they oppose the children of Light, who are disoriented and disorganized, abandoned by their temporal and spiritual leaders.
Daily we sense the attacks multiplying of those who want to destroy the very basis of society: the natural family, respect for human life, love of country, freedom of education and business.
We see heads of nations and religious leaders pandering to this suicide of Western culture and its Christian soul, while the fundamental rights of citizens and believers are denied in the name of a health emergency that is revealing itself more and more fully as instrumental to the establishment of an inhuman faceless tyranny.
A global plan called the Great Reset is underway.
The Great Reset is a nefarious plan by Leftist Globalists to reset the world economy. They're doing this with all these extended worldwide lockdowns due to Covid19. If you haven't read his first letter to Trump, you should. It discusses the battle between the forces of Darkness and Light, which is most definitely what we are experiencing right now.
This Indian Christian Holy Man believes that Trump has been ordained by God to lead this country for another 4 years. He makes a powerful argument for his re-election. He also speaks of some visions he's had about Trump and this country, and asks us to pray for Trump.
Dr Kynan Bridges, a pastor in Tampa, Fl, speaks about a dream about Trump. God asked this man to also pray for Trump. His dream is worth the listen.
Then you have a British New Age Lightworker called Magenta Pixie who also believes that Trump, flawed as he is, is here for a reason. Some of her beliefs are a little strange, but she's a fervent Trump supporter, as are many other so-called Lightworkers who believe Trump is here to fight the cabal. Magenta's Facebook Page, in case you want to poke around.
From another FaceBook page, Lightworkers for Trump:
"Donald Trump is a good man, anointed by God as a divine instrument for change.
"..that Donald Trump was chosen by God to lead in order to shake the corrupt systems in this world to the core. He can be rude, and crude, and lewd, at times, but there are many examples in the Bible where God chooses less than perfect men to perform his will on Earth."
A self-proclaimed prophet and musician from South Africa, Kim Clement predicted, in 2007, that Trump would run for president and win. He passed away on November 23rd, 2016, so never had the chance to see Trump inaugurated, but he also prophesied that Trump would have a second term.
The Democrats are panicking and Biden voters are mobilizing. Big time.
It actually started a long while ago with invites from my lefty entertainment industry friends to join Facebook groups to rock the vote for Biden. Mind you, these same people who are so enthusiastically trying to get Biden elected are only voting for him because they despise Donald Trump so much. Yep, they would literally vote for Jeffrey Dahmer if he happened to be running against Trump. Ironically, in spite of all the obvious signs of dementia, including the fact that Biden is everything they hate about Trump and more, they'll still #VoteBlueNoMatterWho. Needless to say, I never joined any of those groups. But none of the few courageous vocal Trump supporters that I know on Facebook have started any similar kind of action group, and the rest of us are too afraid to jeopardize our prospects for work, since the Leftists in our industry have become so unhinged and hateful. Blackballing still exists, and getting worse.
But back to the mobilization of the Democrats- they're going at it full force. I received this pretty little postcard with a pretty little stamp addressed to Resident. Postmarked New York, which I found very odd. As you can see, at the bottom it says "When Palm Beach County Dems vote by mail, Dems win!"
Now, I've been a registered Republican for decades, so I was flummoxed as to how I wound up on someone's personal 'Vote Dem' mailing list, until I saw a friend post about this group on FB yesterday. Postcardstovoters.org.
Postcards to Voters are friendly, handwritten reminders from volunteers to targeted voters giving Democrats a winning edge in close, key races coast to coast.
What started on March 11, 2017 with sharing 5 addresses apiece to 5 volunteers on Facebook so that they could mail postcards to voters in Jon Ossoff’s race grew in one month to 1,200+ volunteers nationwide and over 51,000 postcards mailed.
Now, we consist of over 75,000+ volunteers in every state (including Alaska and Hawaii) who have written close to 8 million postcards to voters in over 200 key, close elections.
Now, it might have made a bit of a difference in those close races around the country that Republicans were winning and then wound up going to Democrats, but I'm still convinced there was some voter fraud going on. But, why doesn't our side have anything similar? Or maybe we do, but I'm just not hearing about it.
We need to step up to the plate and do as much as we can to get Trump re-elected for another four years, regain the House, and retain the Senate. It's imperative! Yes, I truly believe there is a silent majority with many who will vote for Trump but are keeping it to themselves. But that's not enough. We cannot afford to be complacent, so I've compiled a list of ways you can get involved.
HOW TO GET INVOLVED:
1. Donate to the Trump campaign and the campaigns of the numerous candidates running for House and Senate across the nation- if you have the extra cash. Many are young conservatives who support Trump, and are very enthusiastic. We have a ton of great minority candidates also running. Please support them. They are the future of the Republican Party.
2. Volunteer at a local campaign office for Trump, or any local candidates running for office. Ask them how you can help with their campaigns.
3. Check out KeepAmericaAmerica.com. I heard about this organization listening to Sean Hannity while running errands. It lists resources on how to get involved.
4.TrueTheVote.org is a conservative voting rights organization that also has resources.
As the country’s largest voters’ rights organization, True the Vote is well known for our ability to lead unified national plans to protect election integrity. Since our founding in 2009, we have been on the front lines of election fraud prevention by building action-oriented election integrity movements in key states, counties, and precincts.
With a panicked corrupt Democratic Party doing everything in its power to get rid of Trump, it's imperative that we make sure they don't cheat. They will and they have. No, it's not a myth as the Democrats would have you believe. There has already been a slew of fraud this year during the primaries. Check out my blog post. If you can, volunteer at the polling places and elsewhere. True The Vote can help you with that.
*Organizing – Precinct-level targeting in 13 key states. Macro strategies, micro tactics.
*Data Research – Positioning our multi-terabyte encrypted database as a hub for faster research and planning within the partnership.
*Training and Mobilization – Training a broad base of volunteers to defend election integrity in polling places, voter registries, mail-in ballot review board, and final tabulations.
*Reporting – Building out a rapid response network for communication and action. Methods include YouTube videos, multi-channel podcast, and all forms of social media.
5. KAGInfo.orghas a bare bone website with resources on candidates who support KAG.
Our mission is to gather resources that will help you discover and support KAG/America First candidates.
KAGInfo.org is in its infancy. Over time, we expect to include numerous types of resources/content. Please check back occasionally to see what's new.
If you discover any other site that is helpful in getting our side to mobilize, please let me know and I will add to this blog post.
I don't think I need to tell you how life changing this election will be if we lose. I know that this is the most important election of my lifetime.We're on the verge of either taking a hard leap to the left, or trying to hang on to what freedoms we still have.
With the Covid19 aka Coronavirus aka Wuhan Flu/Chinese Virus (take your pick) pandemic still hovering over us like a heavy dark cloud, the Democratic Party is attempting to expand voter mail-in ballot options. As expected, the Republicans are not too keen on this idea claiming it'll be easier for the Democrats to cheat if it's implemented. The Democrats believe the same thing of the Republicans.
The fact is, it would be easy for either side to cheat. And both sides allegedly have in the past. But ever since Donald Trump was elected president the Democrats, in tandem with the never-Trump tools, have become so uber-desperate to destroy him, they're doing everything in their power to make sure he doesn't win four more years. If you're a Democrat I'll let you do your own research, this post will focus mostly on the times the Democrats have cheated, or attempted to cheat, including many times this year. I'll also include cases of incompetence and user error, and how YOUR vote could easily NOT get counted, and that includes both Republicans AND Democrats.
We've had the ability to vote by mail for decades. It's called Absentee Ballot. I've done so in the past when working on a project out-of-state. Now, if it's an important election I haul my ass down to the polling booth to make sure my vote is counted. This year will be no different. But to blanketly send out universal mail-in ballots to every person in your state is fraught with risks, and the potential for fraud. This is how ballots wind up being sent to wrong addresses, dead people, and dogs. This is how people can vote more than once.
Since the Democrats have been trying to gaslight the American people into thinking mail-in voting is safe, and that cases of fraud, etc are few and far between, here's a long list of links to cases of various types of voter fraud and voting incompetence that have occurred over the past 5 years or so, that you can share with friends and foes alike if you plan on voting this election. I will be updating, as I discover more cases
October 2020- Everywhere (updated)
New Jersey-A New Jersey postman was arrested after he tossed almost 100 blank mail-in ballots into a dumpster near his house, along with around 500 pieces of mail in another dumpster.
California- A man in Redondo Beach, Tom Thompson, just received mail-in ballots for his parents who died over a decade ago. When he posted about it on Twitter asking for Richard Grenell's help to look into this, Grenell's Twitter account was suspended until he took down the photo of the 2 ballots because, you know, we don't have issues with mail-in voting. Many people commenting on Thompson's Twitter post had similar experiences.
Texas- There are allegations of ballot harvesting by Joe Biden's political director in Texas, Dallas Jones, but nothing definitive yet.
Carrollton, Texas- Zul Mirza Mohamed, running for mayor of Carrollton, was arrested and jailed on 109 felony counts of mail-in voter fraud. Democrat.
Columbus, Ohio- Almost 1 in 5 voters in Franklin County, Ohio (home to its Capitol) received the wrong absentee ballots. Almost 50,000 ballots had incorrect info.
September 2020- Everywhere (updated)
Michigan- Over 400 Michigan voters stationed in the military overseas, or citizens living abroad, were sent ballots with the wrong running mate for Trump. They claim the votes will count, but who knows.
Virginia- About 1,000 to 1400 voters were sent two ballots in Virginia. Allegedly, a mistake by the printing company.
Minneapolis, MN- Latest Project Veritas expose' - a ballot harvesting scheme for cash linked to Democratic Rep Ilhan Omar. Texas- Four people in Texas (including Democratic commissioner, Shannon Brown) were just arrested and indicted for voter fraud during the Democratic primaries in 2018. Shannon Brown won by 5 votes after provisional and absentee ballots. (H/T @GeorgiaLogCabin.)
Wisconsin- Three trays of ballots, including absentee ballots, were found in a ditch in Wisconsin.
Georgia- Allegations of about 1,000 voters who double-voted in the Georgia primaries in June. They sent in both absentee ballots and voted in person. Investigation is ongoing. September 2020- North Carolina 19 non-citizens in North Carolina were charged by the Feds with voter fraud for illegally voting in the 2016 elections. No mention of who they voted for.
August 2020- New Jersey
"Judge Ernest Caposela ordered a new election for Paterson’s Third Ward for Tuesday November 3, said Scott Salmon, an elections attorney representing Third Ward Councilman William McKoy. The election will have voters once again decide which of five candidates will fill the single post for the city’s Third Ward.
In June, Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal announced voting fraud charges against 1st Ward Councilman Michael Jackson, 3rd Ward Council-Elect Alex Mendez and two other men. On behalf of McKoy, Salmon filed a successful injunction to stop Mendez from being sworn into office late June."
All Democrats.
August 2020- California A California man was charged with voter fraud for voting both as himself and as his dead mother in three elections between 2012 and 2014. She had died in 2006. No mention of which party.
August 2020- Nationwide
"An extraordinarily high number of ballots — more than 550,000 — have been rejected in this year's presidential primaries, according to a new analysis by NPR.
That's far more than the 318,728 ballots rejected in the 2016 general election and has raised alarms about what might happen in November when tens of millions of more voters are expected to cast their ballots by mail, many for the first time."
The main reasons the ballots were rejected- no signature, the signature didn't match the one on file, or arrived too late. August 2020- Nationwide
Two Democratic affiliated organizations, although they claim to be non-partisan, are arbitrarily sending non-official mail-in ballot applications to voters in 20 different states. Legal, but can lead to confusion.
"Voters across the country are receiving mail-in ballot applications that contain inaccurate and potentially misleading information, election officials say.
The Center for Voter Information (CVI) and its affiliate the Voter Participation Center, both based in Washington, are sending the applications to voters in 20 states.
The groups were founded by Page Gardner, who has worked on multiple Democrat campaigns. The group says it is nonpartisan but was founded with the help of John Podesta, President Bill Clinton’s former chief of staff, according to documents obtained by watchdog Judicial Watch."
August 2020- Nevada
1.3 million Absentee Ballots were sent to every voter in Clark, County, Nevada. 223,469 of those ballots were sent to the wrong address, so those 223,000 plus voters did NOT get a chance to vote in the primaries. And, as it turns out, it adversely affected more Democrats than Republicans.
Democrat 92,337
Republican 53,129
Others 78,003
TOTAL 223,469
"Four more men were sentenced after admitting to their involvement in a large-scale scheme to bribe homeless people on Skid Row in exchange for forged signatures on ballot petitions and voter registration forms, prosecutors said Wednesday."
and
"The California secretary of state’s election data obtained by the AP showed 102,428 mail-in ballots were disqualified in the state’s 58 counties, about 1.5% of the nearly 7 million mail-in ballots returned. That percentage is the highest in a primary since 2014, and the overall number is the highest in a statewide election since 2010."
June 2020: Indiana
Democratic Party activist Jan Reed "was accused last month of illegally sending hundreds of absentee ballot applications with instructions leaving voters no choice but to participate in her party's June 2 primary election." When told to stop, she refused. Democrat.
June 2020: New Jersey
"Of the 2,400 registered Republicans in Bernardsville, 500 to 700 of them received erroneous mail-in ballots, listing the Democratic candidates instead of the Republicans."
June 2020: Michigan
"Some households have received unexpected mailings for deceased voters or since-moved occupants as part of a mass mailing of absentee ballot applications across Michigan.."
June 2020- Florida
Over 18,000 mail-in ballots were rejected in Florida's March presidential primary. Again, late arrival and signature issues.
May 2020: South Carolina
"South Carolina election officials could have counties cut ties to a Minnesota printer after about 20 Charleston County absentee ballots were found in Maryland this week.
The ready-to-mail ballots have since made their way to Charleston-area voters, state and county election officials said, but it is just the latest problem with SeaChange Print Innovations, which prints and mails absentee ballots for 13 S.C. counties.
Some Greenville County voters received the wrong absentee ballots this year when the Democratic presidential primary and a special election for sheriff were held 10 days apart, S.C. Election Commission spokesman Chris Whitmire said."
May 2020- Pennsylvania Not mail-in ballot related, but voter fraud.
"A former Philadelphia election official has pleaded guilty to taking thousands of dollars in bribes to stuff the ballot boxes for Democrats in local races between 2014 and 2016."
April 2020- Oregon
Although Oregon officials blamed the voters, 100s of people had their party switched to non-affiliated from Republican during the primaries. It seems in Oregon you're automatically classified as non-affiliated unless you opt-in. Oregon Secretary of State claims:
“We have an automatic voter registration system that automatically marks people as nonaffiliated, we then send them a letter with a returnable postcard asking if they want to opt out or declare a party, if they don’t return that or change their party online or on our paper forms, then they remain non-affiliated. I don’t know if that is what is happening, but it might be in some cases.”
A pretty asinine way to run an election. One should NOT have to opt-in. I should be able to remain affiliated with whatever party I initially chose when first registering to vote until I CHANGE it.
"Southfield City Clerk Sherikia L. Hawkins was charged Monday with six felony counts over "unauthorized and inaccurate" changes to absentee ballots in the November 2018 election."
193 Absentee Ballots. Democrat
February 2019- North Carolina I'll be fair and include the Absentee Ballot harvesting voter fraud case of Republican Mark Harris. January 2019- Texas
This Florida Sun-Sentinel article illustrates the dangers of mail-in voting- from sloppy signatures to late-arriving ballots, to fraud, and incompetence.
November 2016- California
"Jerry Mosna of San Pedro found the two stacks of ballots on top of his mailbox on Saturday. All of the 83 ballots were unused and addressed to different people, all supposedly living in an apartment he knows to be occupied by a single, 89-year-old, neighbor."
Information on voter fraud from The Heritage Foundation.
Easy To Cheat-
1. Margaret Menge has an interesting story on how she tested the system in 2011 while living in Palm Beach County, Florida, and succeeded.
2. This article from the New York Post highlights voter fraud perpetrated by a Democratic political insider who claims he has been doing it for decades.
"..the political insider, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he fears prosecution, said fraud is more the rule than the exception. His dirty work has taken him through the weeds of municipal and federal elections in Paterson, Atlantic City, Camden, Newark, Hoboken and Hudson County and his fingerprints can be found in local legislative, mayoral and congressional races across the Garden State. Some of the biggest names and highest office holders in New Jersey have benefited from his tricks, according to campaign records The Post reviewed."
"Between 2012 and 2018, 28.3 million mail-in ballots remain unaccounted for, according to data from the federal Election Assistance Commission. The missing ballots amount to nearly one in five of all absentee ballots and ballots mailed to voters residing in states that do elections exclusively by mail." [snip]
Although there is no evidence that the millions of missing ballots were used fraudulently, the Public Interest Legal Foundation, which compiled the public data provided from the Election Assistance Commission, says that the sheer volume of them raises serious doubts about election security."
But no-one knows for sure.
Ballot Harvesting-
Then you have the ripe-for-fraud system whereby someone is allowed to return a ballot for someone else. Here's some info on Ballot Harvesting, and its potential for fraud.
"In states where the practice is legal, volunteers or campaign workers can go directly to the homes of voters, collect the completed ballots, and drop them off en masse at polling places or election offices. In some states, ballot harvesters can be paid hourly for their work collecting ballots."
Critics fear that in states without restrictions on who can return a ballot on someone else's behalf, a third party could take advantage of the system by tampering with or discarding the ballots."
That's what happened in North Carolina with GOP candidate Mark Harris, see February 2019 above. And this fraudulent scheme by Democrat cheaters inTexas:
May 2020, Texas- "A two-year investigation uncovered an alleged ballot harvesting scheme in which people with prior forgery convictions picked up batches of mail-in ballots and a number of voted ballots were marked identically."
Unlike North Carolina, which only allows a close relative or legal guardian to deliver a ballot, 26 other states are more lenient.
"..26 states allow a voter to designate someone else to return their ballot for them, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. A dozen of those states limit the number of ballots that the designee can collect and return on behalf of voters. And 10 states allow the ballot to be returned by the voter's family member."
California expanded its ballot collection program in 2016 to allow any person — not just a relative or housemate — to collect an absentee ballot. Operatives can be paid for ballot harvesting in California but their compensation can't be calculated based on the number of ballots they collect.
One has to wonder in those incredibly close races in the 2018 mid-term elections in California if that's how some of the Democrats won traditionally GOP-held House seats.
Ballot Harvesting is also being implemented in Nevada for the November general election.
This is not a definitive list, but I didn't have the time to delve further, and I didn't want to turn this into a novel. Voter fraud is NOT a myth, as Democrats would have us believe. Issues with mail-in ballots are very real, and potentially disastrous depending on how close the race is between two candidates.
If you're one of the 57 million or so gig and freelance workers out there you might want to take a good hard look at who you're planning to vote for in the upcoming 2020 elections.
Any of you familiar with the new California law AB5 that took effect on January 1, 2020? That epic mess of a bill that was cobbled together by Democratic Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez, and endorsed by Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom? The law that is pretty much decimating the gig economy in California for pretty much every independent contractor other than "doctors, dentists, psychologists, insurance agents, stockbrokers, lawyers, accountants, engineers, real estate agents" and some other lucky ones who happen to live in the Golden State? The bill that is basically forcing businesses to switch independent contractors to employees? The bill that could effectively bankrupt many of those companies and small businesses because they can't afford to hire those contractors full time? The bill that is making people prove that they fit the criteria of being an independent contractor through the ABC Test, which entails submitting a myriad of paperwork?
Guess who supports AB5 and wants to make it national- Joe Biden. Yes, the man who some thought was the most palatable and moderate of the sorry lot of Democratic candidates running for president. Joe Biden tweeted his support for the bill 6 days after Gonzalez actually admitted she was WRONG for believing the bill wouldn't somehow adversely affect gig workers, including musicians.
“we never intended for a band member to be another band member’s employer if they’re playing on the weekends or here and there..”
People are losing work- many their livelihoods- due to this epic failure of a law. Female home-based business owners (including women of color)- many of whom need the flexibility of freelance work- are being hard hit. Including LGBTQ folk, and those with physical disabilities.
"In recent years, a growing number of women have flocked to self-employment. Given the glass ceiling and gender pay gap in many companies, some women find they earn more as independent workers than in a traditional job. For those juggling caregiving and a heavy load of unpaid household work, running a business from home instead of commuting is often the only way they can get everything done."
And this:
"... many independent workers in California say AB5’s complexity has scared away their clients, who are afraid of getting hit with fines by the state if they misinterpret it. Governor Gavin Newsom’s proposed 2020 budget includes about $20 million for enforcement."
But it's not just California- there are other blue states including Illinois, New Jersey, and New York considering similar job-killing bills. If the Democrats retain Congress, retake the Senate, and win the White House those 57-plus million gig workers can effectively kiss their businesses goodbye.
So which gig workers are being targeted?
-Newspaper delivery workers (exempt for 1 year)
-Rideshare workers (Uber/Lyft)
-Food delivery drivers (Postmates etc)
-Writers (can only submit 35 submissions per year per outlet, Vox Media fired hundreds of independent contractors because of AB5.
-Photographers (can only submit 35 submissions per year per outlet)
-Many musicians (the industry fought back and some will be exempt) but if you're a musician working in theme parks, forget it.
-Film and TV workers not working under a Union Contract (including freelance dubbing and voice-over work, makeup artists)
-Convention workers
-Unlicensed manicurists (exempt for 2 years)
-Health Aides (in Nursing homes and Assisted Living facilities)
-Janitors and housekeepers
-Land surveyors, landscape architects, geologists
-Campaign workers
-Language interpreters and translators
-Strippers
-Rabbis
-Seamstresses
-Commercial fisherman (exempt until 2023)
-Truckers (some)
Some health professionals are also not exempt. Those include:
Audiologist, clinical social worker (licensed), marriage and family therapist, nurse practitioner, occupational therapist, optometrist, physician assistant, radiation therapist, speech therapist, professional clinical counselor (licensed), respiratory therapists.
The fact that Joe Biden and the Democrats support such a job killing bill should have you truly frightened. Do your research before you vote yourself out of your freelance jobs.
I think everyone can agree that we need police reform. There are some corrupt cops, there are some bad cops who take advantage of their positions of authority to exert power over others, and there are some that have anger management issues and should never have become cops in the first place
Take Derek Chauvin who had at least 17 to 20 complaints lodged against him over the years, but was finally removed only after he calmly, defiantly, and mercilessly shoved his knee on George Floyd's neck, hand in pocket, for a good 8 minutes while the man begged for help, calling out for his mama. Floyd wasn't resisting as he lay face down on the asphalt like many others we've seen. In fact, for those last few minutes, he was already unconscious. No threat at all.
Yes, Floyd had a criminal past, yes, he was possibly trying to purchase something with an alleged fake $20.00 bill, yes, he was on drugs, but he didn't deserve to die. Chauvin had no right to be judge, jury, and executioner.
So, yes, bad cops exist, but there are evildoers in almost every industry and we shouldn't judge the whole by the few bad. However, this post isn't about that, it's about the fact that the majority of people of every skin color who have encounters with the police walk away with no issues. If you are not committing a major crime and you act respectfully and don't resist, you won't wind up dead on a sidewalk.
However, if you're mouthy, you will most definitely get some flak. Take my mom, for instance, who has never responded well to being told what to do. Factor in a sassy attitude, couple that with an authority figure, and you have a recipe for disaster. Take that time in 2013 when the TSA officer balked at the fact that unbeknownst to my mom her Driver's License had expired. Mum made such a major stink that she almost didn't make it to California. I had to pull the TSA agent aside and explain that my mom is bi-polar and has issues. They let her through, but mum was the one they pulled aside to be thoroughly searched from head to toe. My dad and I breezed through. Then there was the time, on a trip back from South America, that my mom refused to get in the line that the immigration officer at Miami Airport had pointed us to. Whose luggage was searched? Mom's. And on a road trip with my dad somewhere down south, my mum and dad were pulled over. Not sure what the reason was, but apparently my mom mouthed off to the police officer and she was almost hauled off to jail. My mom doesn't remember the incident, and my dad is no longer with us, but my dad wrote a letter complaining about the treatment of my mom. So yeah, if you mouth off you will suffer the consequences.
That's why I thought I'd share this Chris Rock video from ages ago.
How Not To Get Your Ass Kicked By The Police
It should be required viewing for all ages and races. It's very funny with some great advice.
Actor Kevin James, star of The King of Queens, has filmed a very funny yet scary short that highlights the excesses of the current Covid19 lockdown, including snitching, and the quarantine shamers that abound.
As some cities and states are seeing the gradual lifting of lockdown restrictions, others like Los Angeles county are extending it- possibly through the end of summer.
With police overreach, like this man who was forced off a bus in Philadelphia for not wearing a mask, this film isn't so far fetched.
Not sure where James stands on the political spectrum, but he's spot on with this.
Every so often leftist Bill Maher gets it right. He's spot on when it comes to Islamic extremism and his support of Israel, and I'll now give him kudos for chiming in on the whole Chinese Wuhan Virus issue.
In the video, he brilliantly skewers the perpetually offended PC folk who are calling anyone who mentions anything about China in reference to the Coronavirus/Covid19 Flu as racists, in spite of the fact that many viruses have been named from whence they originated.
"Seriously, it scares me that there are people out there who would rather die from the virus then call it by the wrong name. This isn't about vilifying a culture. It's about facts, it's about life and death. We're barely 4 months into this pandemic, and the wet markets in China- the ones where exotic animals are sold and consumed - are already starting to re-open. The PC police say it's racist to attack any cultural practice that's different than our own. I say liberalism lost its way when it started thinking like that. And pretended that forcing a woman to wear this [photo of a burka] was just a different way instead of an abhorrent human right's violation. It's not racist to point out that eating bats is batshit crazy."
It's worth a watch.
Sidenote: there are people who question the theory that the Wuhan Flu originated from consuming bats, but since other viruses have originated in those wet markets we need to make sure they are shut down forever.
Trump supporters have gone from "deplorables" to cult followers. At least that's what cult/mind control expert Steven Hassan seems to think. He even wrote a book about his theory- "The Cult of Trump." So do journalists like CNN's Brian Stelter who cited several others who believe that we Trump supporters have joined the Cult of 45. Just google and you'll find a slew of commentary (from both left and the never-Trump right) surmising that the enthusiastic support for a man who has been vilified from before he took office amounts to brainwashed, cult-like behavior.
People have conveniently forgotten- or were never aware of the fact, to begin with- that the man who truly developed a cult of personality was Trump's predecessor Barack Obama. Some saw through the thin veneer of a charismatic politician with no substance, but not many.
In 2008, journalist Lisa Lerer wrote about "Obamamania verging on obsession" in a Politico article.
"He walks into a room and you want to follow him somewhere, anywhere," George Clooney told talk show host Charlie Rose.
"I'll do whatever he says to do," actress Halle Berry said to the Philadelphia Daily News. "I'll collect paper cups off the ground to make his pathway clear."
Welcome to the cult of Barack Obama.
Over the years, there were many who actually likened him to Jesus Christ. At the Soul Train Awards in 2012, actor Jamie Foxx introduced Barack Obama as "our Lord, and Savior..." The Rev Al Sharpton on the Tom Joyner Radio Show in 2014 compared him to Jesus Christ.
Even a Danish editorial from Politiken in 2009 opined: "Obama greater than Jesus- The U.S. President- the practical savior of our time". You can't read the whole article unless you dish over 1 Kroner, which I did not.
There's also a blog from back in the Obama days called ObamaMessiah with links to many articles worshipping the man.
Barbara A. Thompson wrote a book titled "The Gospel According to the Apostle Barack". For sale on Amazon, it has an 88% 1 Star rating. 6% 5 Star. The book apparently compares Obama to Jesus. Thompson happens to be a university professor in the Agriculture Department at Florida A & M.
New York contemporary artist Michael D'Antuono depicted Obama as a crucified Christ in this portrait he painted in 2009 titled "The Truth" although he has stated he was not comparing the two.
Obama was idolized far more than Trump by celebrities, media, and ordinary folk. Remember when MSNBC's Chris "tingles" Matthews felt "this thrill" running up his leg when Obama spoke in 2017? And then he shared this:
“I’ve been following politics since I was about 5,” said Mr. Matthews. “I’ve never seen anything like this. This is bigger than Kennedy. [Obama] comes along, and he seems to have the answers. This is the New Testament. This is surprising.”
The New Testament?
Obama with halo effect
In early 2008, will.i.am was inspired to write a song- "Yes We Can"- using the words of Barack Obama's "concession" speech. I'm not sure who he was conceding to, or if will.i.am just misspoke, but you can cringe watch it on YouTube.
It also features John Legend and other celebrities including Nicole Scherzinger, Scarlett Johansson, and several others that I don't recognize.
And get a load of this flag with Obama's face flapping in the wind at the Lake County Florida Democratic Headquarters for several months in 2012 until some local veterans complained and it was eventually removed.
Then there were all those creepy indoctrinated kids singing Obama's praises.
And his Youth Brigade.
And anti-Trumpers talk about his narcissism, but remember when Obama was selling his special limited edition U.S. flag with his logo in place of the stars and stripes for $35.00?
Speaking of narcissism, dating back to Franklin D Roosevelt every former president has built a presidential Library to house donated collections of historical papers and memorabilia (both public and private) from their time in office. Although the libraries themselves are funded by the individual the facility is run by the federal government's National Archives. But Obama isn't building a library, no, he's building a Center because a library would probably be too pedestrian for the likes of a narcissist. According to the Washington Examiner Obama's future facility allegedly will not be like all the others:
There will be no books, no presidential papers or documents, nor printed matter of any kind related to the Obama presidency, except for, presumably, what’s on sale at the gift shop.
There will be no cables, no memoranda or manuscripts, no official records of the presidency it’s designed to celebrate. The Barack Obama Presidential Center will not be a historical archive, scholarly resource, or even museum, so much as a vast, 33-acre monument to Obama, spread over multiple structures and a manicured landscape.
Not sure if that's quite accurate, but if you want to see what Obama is focusing on, check out the list of artifacts they're asking the public to donate to the museum. It includes materials starting with his formative years.
Our goal for the Museum collection is to preserve and activate a rich and multifaceted record of President and Mrs. Obama’s lives and legacy in order to share the lessons of history and to help inspire, connect, and empower people to change their world.
We need your help to ensure a diverse range of stories and perspectives are represented through the artifacts we collect.
Your material does not need to be one-of-a-kind or of high monetary value for it to have historical significance. We are interested in materials that tell the stories of the communities and individuals that helped to shape or were impacted by the Obamas’ unique journey and time in the White House.
So this isn't just a monument to commemorate his time as president, this is a vanity project to pay homage to his whole darn life. If that isn't the definition of narcissism, I don't know what is.
However, not everyone was thrilled about having his private center built on public land in Chicago South Side's Jackson Park. In fact, there was a lawsuit filed claiming a bait and switch, and likening it to an "illegal land grab."
A federal lawsuit filed by a Chicago nonprofit in an attempt to block the Obama Presidential Center from being built in Jackson Park accuses organizers of pulling an "institutional bait and switch" by shifting the center's purpose away from being a true presidential library.
Protect Our Parks Inc. also claims in its lawsuit, which was filed in U.S. District Court on Monday, that the Chicago Park District and the City of Chicago don't have the authority to transfer public parkland to nongovernmental entity such as the Obama Foundation.

The plaintiffs accuse the Obamas of committing an about-face on original plans for the Jackson Park site to be home to a national presidential library that would hold historic documents and archives from Barack Obama's presidency under the National Archives and Records Administration's supervision.
But the Obamas prevailed.
There is a major difference between Trump supporters and Obama sycophants. Yeah, there are those who revere Trump like the vast majority of Democrats revered Obama without conditions, but the rest of us support him in spite of his faults. We support him warts and all because this country is thriving like it hasn't done for years, and because we are fully aware of how the devious Democratic Party in tandem with the complicit media has been trying from day one to get rid of him. We have witnessed how Hollywood elites along with the #resist movement Twitterati have vilified and called for his resignation and impeachment from before he took office. We are cognizant of the fact that the majority of Social Media Platforms and tech companies have targeted his base simply because we support him.
