The Jan 6 searchers are still busy. Insurrections has serious consequences!! He has lost it all... Massachusetts prosecutor reviewing all cases handled by cop exposed as Charlottesville Nazi: report Matthew Chapman October 14, 2022 "Middlesex County District Attorney Marina Ryan announced Friday that her office is now 'thoroughly reviewing any pending or closed cases' in which Donnelly, a patrolman in Woburn, Massachusetts, was involved," reported Christopher Mathias. "'We will be issuing a discovering notice disclosing this matter to defense counsel on those cases,' Ryan said in a statement. 'That notice has already been added to our publicly available list of officers subject to exculpatory evidence disclosure.'" "On Thursday, HuffPost published a report detailing how Donnelly, 33, was among hundreds of white supremacists who descended on Charlottesville in August 2017 for a 'Unite the Right' rally, terrorizing the town while chanting slogans such as 'Jews will not replace us' and violently attacking counterprotesters. The bloody weekend culminated with a neo-Nazi driving his car into a crowd of counterprotesters, killing 32-year-old Heather Heyer," said the report. "Donnelly attended the rally as a bodyguard for Richard Spencer, a prominent white supremacist. Leaked chat logs from a neo-Nazi Discord server show Donnelly played an integral part in planning the weekend’s events." Donnelly's identity was exposed after online sleuths put an image of him from the rally through facial recognition. "Donnelly was not only a cop; he was also the president of a 'back the blue' nonprofit called Irish Angel, which raised money for law enforcement causes. He was an award-winning real estate agent in the Boston area," the report continued. "Irish Angel told HuffPost on Thursday that Donnelly had been removed as president of the organization. Century 21, the real estate agency for which Donnelly worked, confirmed on Friday that Donnelly had been fired."This comes amid heightened scrutiny into current and former police officers' involvement in extremist movements and groups. After the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, several people with ties to law enforcement were exposed as having been involved, including retired NYPD veteran Thomas Webster, who was sentenced to 10 years for assaulting D.C. Metropolitan Police officers, and Thomas Robertson, formerly an officer in Rocky Mount, Virginia, who received 7 years. www.rawstory.com/massachusetts-prosecutor-reviewing-all-cases-handled-by-cop-exposed-as-charlottesville-nazi-report/ |

Bad answer because the current Supreme Court is issuing decisions that hurt the American People, even in Georgia. Or perhaps a politically savvy answer. If the Democrats campaign on packing the court, Republicans will paint them as radical. Biden avoided answering the question in Sept 2020, it might be the smart move for Democrats now, too. I agree the court needs reform - term limits and maybe even more justices. But, I dint think the people in Georgia would vote for that. They might however, vote for someone they think will fight for them in Washington DC. Warnock needs the votes of moderate Republicans to win in Georgia. It's not helpful to talk about packing the courts, if that means losing the election. www.nytimes.com/live/2022/10/14/us/walker-warnock-debate-georgiaMr. Warnock, with a narrow and tenuous lead in the polls, was controlled and cautious, going on the attack only a few times and avoiding directly answering questions when doing so could alienate the moderate Republicans he has courted. |

I agree with the response but this country is dealing with uneducated voters who apparently don’t want to hear the truth.

when people always dis nancy pelosi.. I would think of her as a staunch italian american who had 5 kids.. and if that doesn't make you tough nothing will.. the kids were close in age. she also is the daughter of the former mayor of baltimore --so she grew up on the milk of politics..
so a tough practicing catholic grandmother.. I would think no one gets things pass her..
she started as a volunteer and fundraiser..
I am happy to vote for her again.

Pelosi has guts. She said she would punch former in the face if he decided to trespass at the Capitol.
Our house, more importantly, her house, her prerogative to invite and welcome guests or not!

Ouch! Trump is having a bad year. “ Will Wilkerson, then an executive at former president Donald Trump’s start-up Trump Media & Technology Group, was at a Fort Lauderdale, Fla., coffee shop with company co-founder Andy Litinsky last October when Trump called Litinsky with a question: Would he give up some of his shares to Trump’s wife, Melania?
Trump Media, the owner of the fledgling social network Truth Social, had just been boosted by a huge merger agreement and a flood of investment that had made the stake worth millions of dollars. Trump had already been given 90 percent of the company’s shares in exchange for the use of his name and some minor involvement, leaving everyone else to split the rest.
Litinsky tried to brush it off, telling Trump “the gift would have meant a huge tax bill he couldn’t pay,” Wilkerson said in an interview. “Trump didn’t care. He said, ‘Do whatever you need to do.’ ”
Five months later, Litinsky, who first met Trump in 2004 as a contestant on the TV show “The Apprentice,” was abruptly removed from the company’s board. Wilkerson said he believes it was payback for his refusal to turn over a small fortune to the former president’s wife. Litinsky thought so, too, according to an email Wilkerson and his attorneys shared with The Washington Post and the Securities and Exchange Commission. In that email, Litinsky complained that Trump was “retaliating against me” by threatening to “ ‘blow up the company’ if his demands are not met.”
Litinsky did not respond to emails and phone messages. It is unknown whether he still retains his shares.” www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/10/15/truth-social-trump-animosity-whistleblower/ |

A slimy, vindictive, unethical businessman will also be a slimy, vindictive, unethical politician. I am amazed how many people bought into the TV businessman persona and had no knowledge of his real-life reputation (or didn't care) before giving him their precious vote. But, that's what happens when people only watch garbage TV and never read. |

So earlier this week we had two protestors throw tomato juice on a Van Gogh. They were protesting oil.
Now this.
I’m all for fighting climate change and maybe , based on some of the responses in the climate change thread, things like this need to be done to make the point. But I’m sure if we have reached this point yet. And until we reach that point, things like this are wrong. IMO.

He has a point, this country’s “functioning moral compass” is missing in action. Unfortunately, T-rump gave a portion of the country a feeling of having received permission to be completely without virtue, self-absorbed, misogynistic, racist, loud-mouthed, vulgar, and dismissive of anyone thinking differently--then took it a step further by adding being violent to the list. Because, after all, if somebody as "successful" as he is like this, it must be great, right? The ways he's ruined our country are astounding, even if you just consider the moral and attitude implications (never mind the damage to our health, economy, trust in government & social structures, environment, relations with other nations, and on and on). Looking back, people will ask, wide-eyed, how anybody could ever have voted for him. The answer is that a portion of the country wanted that permission to be horrible, and reveled in thinking they'd received it. |

And this damn fool chooses to speak .. fix was in with Alexandra Pelosi doing the video. Donald Trump, Jr. on Saturday said he expected backlash after voicing his thoughts on the videos of Speaker Nancy Pelosi during the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. *** In one clip, Pelosi discusses reporters that Trump wanted to join the rioters at the U.S. Capitol. "I hope he comes up here, I'm going to punch him out," Pelosi said. "I've been waiting for this — for trespassing on the Capitol grounds." *** So Nancy Pelosi refuses Trump’s request for a national guard presence on Jan 6 & simultaneously has a documentary film crew in her office where are you can hear her poorly delivered tough guy act… I’m sure I’ll be called conspiracy theorist for thinking this isn’t a coincidence!" Trump, Jr. posted to Truth Social. *** "It’s all so f*cking fake stop buying into the bullsh*t!" he added. In a subsequent post he wrote, "conspiracy theorists are just people capable of pattern recognition. www.rawstory.com/alexandra-pelosi-j6-video/ |

This is one of the reasons why conservatives continue to support candidates like Walker, Johnson and MTG. The same reason people vote for them. Republicans care about power over anything else. Mitch McConnell told CNN this week, he doesn't have a litmus test, he doesn't care if candidates are more like Trump or Cheney, as long as they have an R after their name. I disagree wholeheartedly, but people voting for Walker, Johnson, MTG and others are not stupid. One could argue that the propaganda machine of Republicans and conservative media has successfully convinced voters of non-existent fraud, white washed the history of Jan 6, stirred up racism, xenophobia, anti-LGBTQ, anti-Semitism with false claims about the border, false claims about crime and the constant culture wars. That doesn't make the people that believe all of the Republican lies stupid. Condescension, superiority, elitism, criticism and negative stereotypes towards voters will not help Democrats, it's part of the reason why Hillary lost in 2016. Democrats need to recognize that Trump supporters, MAGA Republicans etc believe in Trump just as passionately as Democrats believe in democracy and liberal ideas. www.cnn.com/2022/10/11/politics/mitch-mcconnell-interview-midterm-cliffhanger“I’m for people that get the Republican nomination, and for winning, because if we win we get to decide what the agenda is, and they don’t.”
www.nytimes.com/2022/10/15/opinion/walker-warnock-debate.htmlWalker is devastatingly inarticulate. That is the fact of the matter, and a disqualifying one. This is not a dialectic issue, of which I am more understanding. Regional and cultural dialects are real and not a measure of intelligence.
That’s not what’s happening with Walker. With him, there is a base inability to convey his ideas in complete thoughts or sentences. And like a child, when his words fail, he fills in the gaps with energy and emotion, hostility and humor.
This cheap rhetorical trick works for Republicans. They want the fighter more than the philosopher, the class jock over the class president. As long as the candidate is on their side, it doesn’t matter if he’s up to par, because at the end of the day, they are voting for the power over the person.
They will elect a man without command of the English language or the issues if it gives them command of the seat and the Senate. Walker’s debate performance was just designed to allay their fears, to make them think better about doing the unthinkable. |

When one make’s statement like this then the next question from the news person should be where is your verifiable proof of what you claim. Until they start doing this people will believe stuff that is not true.
