Michael "The Grim Reaper" Cohen set to testify?

These are always my favorite, people who are equal parts shit and liar telling you who the shits and liars are. Well, I guess maybe they know what it looks like because they are it - but I mean, how much can you trust that? Michael Cohen is going to say ‘Trump knew WikiLeaks would run an article’, sorry but who cares? You mean to tell me he knew that WikiLeaks would start telling the truth openly about the DNC? Remember, they didn’t make anything up, they just passed along emails openly sent by the DNC. Then in usual fashion, Mikey will call Donny racist with zero actual facts to that case other than nuance on words and ideology. Donny, the same man who won the Ellis Island Award is a racist? If that’s true he should be ‘fired’ for being a terrible one. Plus, I have to say calling a business man in the US a ‘con-man’ or ‘cheat’ is par for the course kids. They all are, how do you think they run Fortune 500 companies? Based only on their honor and intelligence? Who are you kidding? ...

Your taxes are going up - one of my favorite FakeNews spins of 2019.

Your taxes are going up - one of my favorite FakeNews spins of 2019. Without a doubt you’ve heard rumblings if you pay any attention to tax code that you might pay more this year because Trump somehow screwed you. Well, as with much of everything you read or hear since 2001, that is a steaming pile of excrement wrapped around minimal facts. The facts of the case are this, the Federal Treasury has limited the amount of local and State income taxes you can deduct from your Federal taxes. As any taxpayer knows, the State and local municipalities routinely lay pipe on the taxpayer because they always knew, you’d never care. You didn’t care because any shade-tree accountant could deduct all those costs for you so when the Feds came to take their tribute, you thought you were being smart. Reality sets in. The local and State have been raping you like a drunk hooker for decades, you never cared. Now, all the local Legislatures have lathered up the Blitzkrieg to inform you that “TRUMP” some...

Brett Kavanaugh, poor Kavanaugh.

Honestly, I’m wondering what is the ratio of accusations to corroboration that enables you to call something a ‘fact’? Well, apparently if you’re a politician it is 2:1; if you have 2 accusers you have a corroborated story? What could go wrong. In light of Ford being a useless accuser who couldn’t corroborate a thing about her story - from not knowing how she got to the party, how she got home, but apparently vividly remembering 2 minutes in which her sole witness said ‘it didn’t happen’ - the political elite who would rather SCOTUS made laws than followed the Constitution, have brought forward another ‘accuser’. The similarity, her story. There is no corroborating evidence. There are no witnesses, no prior accounts, no discussions, just 20-40 year old story tellers. The insanity isn’t that these storytellers exist, it is that their stories are being taken as truths. Regardless of any facts. Let’s take this one step further, not only are stories becoming facts but nobody is focusin...

Protestors, just stop.

Much like the term "gay", "liberal" and "racist" the progressive left has watered down the concept of protesting. Protesting once had a substantial point and a measurable effectiveness. Today, protesting is the direct equivalent of children crying when they don't get something they want. It completely removes the effective measures it once maintained. Protesting every given thing with either mobs or hashtags is as purposeless as changing a Facebook profile to show solidarity with a travesty. Pointless. The leftist progressive has all but murdered people who object to their beliefs, then ironically accuses the other side of the argument for being 'racist' or ' bias' or whatever their narrative has socialized. It is nice to see a world finally fighting back.

Fascists at their finest.

There is absolutely nothing more fascist than banning speech, books or discussion. One of the tenants of Nazi propaganda was the banning of authors or discussions for the better good, the left has entirely embraced this. I suppose it is the norm, going back to the leftist-progressive roots that brought us Slavery - and the Civil War. http://reason.com/blog/2017/03/03/a-professor-who-attended-charles-murrays Hundreds of protesters—at least some of them students—crashed Murray's talk at Middlebury's campus, as I reported earlier . They talked over Murray and accused him of being a white nationalist. Murray is a controversial figure, but it would be wrong to describe him as a white nationalist. It would also be wrong to presume— as many faculty members did —that there's nothing to be gained from listening to him speak. And of course, it's wrong to disrupt his event and prevent him from speaking.

We need another Richard Pryor

This morning I watched a special on Richard Pryor, a comic I've always thought was hilarious but I never knew the back story behind his life and comedy. I am too young to have seen him in his prime, but from what I've heard and watched, he was amazing. What the world needs now is a modern Richard Pryor and to stop stifling people based on a definition of what the current American stream considers 'acceptable' discussion. Richard Pryor was one of the first mainstream personalities to use Nigger on a regular basis; whether in an album title or the lines themselves. Richard Pryor one time fired his entire staff, because they were white, to rehire a black staff because he felt it was closer to what he was. Richard Pryor would also recommend how many whites should be in his audiences - this racial and cultural attitude brought him a laundry list of hardships. NBC censoring him, Vegas shows cancelling him and long periods without any stage to play on. Bringing me back to ...

Modern Journalism has a lower bar than a Freshmans Term paper.

Have you noticed the uptick over the last 10 years in 'anonymous' sources? It was once a standard that you couldn't or at minimum shouldn't post something positioning itself as fact if you couldn't point to a source. In modern times of Cable media, sources seem irrelevant or simply attributes that are noteworthy if you have them. I think back to College and remember being told that in papers I couldn't write something as a fact without stating a source; fumbling around with the APA sourcing guidelines was mind numbing. Fast forward to today and it seems media outlets can randomly publish fact from 'anonymous' sources and people consume it as fact, politicians respond to 'truth' and Twitter explodes. Does anyone else believe this is crazy? Should we hold official media and speech to a higher standard? Shouldn't the press who claims protections of the first amendment but also wants to be considered factual to at least source their facts to so...

Crimes are not really crimes, they are money making schemes and social justice events - in some cases.

Most people understand what a 'crime' is and in most cases, though never defined, a crime generally has a victim - something that was wronged and therefore justice must be provided. For instance an assault has a clear victim, a robbery has a clear victim, fraud even has a clear victim. One thing that doesn't have a victim, government enforced social behavior. Want a clear example? Speeding tickets. A speeding ticket is a fine, or worse, issued by the State to a Citizen even though there was no victim involved more than paper and policy. Speeding could lead to a crime (manslaughter, injury, etc.) but it isn't a victim based crime in itself. In fact you could argue that "safety" is used for many instance of social justice crimes. It is for your safety that many States require a seatbelt in your car - or you can be fined. It is for your safety that States have cell phone laws for vehicles - or you can be fined. Keep in mind none of these had a direct victim; cert...

Stop blocking, deleting, protesting and start openly speaking

The US has degraded into a childlike argument where instead of discussing openly the views you may have, you yell, scream, break things or all out boycott or delete them. We don't discuss anymore, which was the cornerstone of what made this Country great, instead we threaten and we bully. Take the latest show of lack of adulthood with "PewDiePie", a person on YouTube who posted what was labeled a "anti-Semitic" joke. Instead of leaving the account alone and allowing dialogue, YouTube bowed to public pressure (aka lynch-mob tactics) and deleted the individuals account. This is also know as silencing them. This was just the latest example of progressive limitations of free speech. If you don't agree, you delete. That is the American motto now. If you find something offensive, you don't discuss calmly opposing opinions and bullet points, you respond entirely with emotion and fear. America today resembles a 3rd graders fight at a park. Lots of yelling and ...

Why BlackLivesMatter is basically a terrorist organization without the hardware or planning.

Image
From blacklivesmatter.com, tell me again how this isn't a false-propaganda organization focused entirely on giving arrogant clowns a finger to point: Black Lives Matter is an ideological and political intervention in a world where Black lives are systematically and intentionally targeted for demise.  It is an affirmation of Black folks’ contributions to this society, our humanity, and our resilience in the face of deadly oppression. Yeah, that comes directly from 'blacklivesmatter.com'. Sadly though almost 100% of their main focus is incorrect - proven by facts. Black lives are systematically and intentionally targeted. Wow, so this is completely false. In fact, a Harvard study by a black professor that set out initially with the theory that blacks were targeted by police, found that actually there was absolutely zero facts pointing to that conclusion. Of course, that didn't stop the rhetoric from spewing and the false racist narrative from b...

Stop holding black people down, please!

Is this a joke? Violence in Chicago (over 4,300 shot in 2016) and other cities at highs from black on black crime and police are shot at record numbers, but "Trump" might usher in a threat to blacks from policing? Are you completely brainwashed? The biggest threat to black people is people of any color that keep perpetuating this story line that someone, outside of the locality and individual,  is to blame. When we stop listening to that rhetoric, when we stop pointing a finger around saying "who is to blame for my outcome!" we will start to see a change. A white person is born without a boogieman to point to, and yet, there is still white crime, whites are killed by police more frequently and whites still drop out of schools, what they don't have, per society, is anyone but themselves to point to for their failure. We need to seriously address this problem, and continued progressive based emotional finger-pointing, isn't it. It starts with accountability an...

A new low in gun legislation

Image
NEW CALIFORNIA GUN LAW FOR 2017: People will no longer be able to buy semi-automatic rifles that have a bullet button allowing removal of the ammunition magazine, commonly used in mass shootings. Those that have such weapons will have to register them with the state. This is without a doubt the dumbest thing I've heard liberals say about guns this year, and it made it into a law. A "bullet button (est. 2007)", formerly known as a magazine release. Apparently California believes that if guns forced you to essentially unscrew the magazine from the gun with some type of tool, the insanely low levels of mass shooting would be even more irrelevant on society. This is the type of emotional, nonsensical, legislation that only hurts America. There is absolutely no benefit, this will not stop a single crime. They claim that this legislation was born from the San Bernardino TERRORIST attack. However, even in that case, the rifles were illegally modified. So yet again,...

Fake News

Image
All the rhetoric lately about 'fake news' and false information, from Facebook threading to 'bogus news' sites has me wondering. It seem the fake news sites actually carry real names, such as "The Washington Post", it all revolves around what you consider fake. In my opinion, writing an article immediately after the first thread of information to grab a headline in a 24/7/365 news cycle, then never going back to update it with the same fervent fashion or, rushing to make everything Breaking News/Alerts while simply blowing up the most simple of facts, are all fake news. It simply is in the eye of the beholder. For instance over the last two weeks we've heard that the majority of 'news' stories from 'real' news agencies regarding race baited attacks or church burnings were entirely, false. However, this doesn't stop people from now quoting how a President Elect has emboldened racism. See, that is the true impact of fake news. It isn...

What are you teaching your children, Trump protesters?

Since November 8th 2016 Americans throughout the Country have been engaging in some of the most absurd and disgusting activities imaginable. Instead of embracing a Nation they profess to love too much to leave, they have throw an adult temper-tantrum. Sixty million people elected Trump, 60 million did not - like most elections the separation of winner and lose was divided by a minimal number of Electoral votes. As a result, a few hundred thousand Americans have decided to make America look like any common third-world Country, minus dirt. What these "protesters" are protesting remains unknown, is it America? Other people's rights to Vote? Nobody is quite sure. The process worked as laid out in the US Constitution, and the results were unquestioned - unlike 2000 Bush v. Gore. Yet, we see an absurd amount of outlandish presentations by the media (see Saturday Night Live or any opinion piece written in the Washington Post), and by American citizens. President-Elect Trump ha...

Trump

Image
If we know anything about President-Elect Trump it is that he is the first ‘President to be’ that doesn’t have a party affiliation. Yes, he is labeled a Republican, but his past 40 years would tell you a completely different story. This is a man that gave gobs of his money to Democratic candidates (to include the Clintons - in fact 8 times when she was in NY, John Kerry 7 times and even Joe Biden), he spent his own dollars creating jobs and industries hiring every conceivable minority. Trump didn’t start limiting his donations to Democrats until 2011. That is a heck of a lot of money to the other side. He has flipped directions on multiple issues and has never backed a party line. That makes him dangerous, dangerous to party politics. What it provides Americans is opportunity. For the first time you have a President that truly owes nothing to a Party. He is already a Billionaire, so he is considerably harder to buy, and in fact, he took a pay cut to become the Leader of the Free W...

Chicago has a violence problem, it has nothing to do with police shootings.

Image
A recent article spread on the Chicago Tribune attempted to highlight police shootings; simply adding bogus fuel to a pathetically false fire against Policing. While there are clear cases of police abuse, this absurd assumption of police actions is ludicrous especially in a City where violence reigns without check by the black community. The Chicago Tribune, should be ashamed. Here are the YEAR TO DATE (Jan 1 2016-Aug 26 2016) Shootings in the inner-city of Chicago: Year to Date Shot & Killed:  428 Shot & Wounded:  2359 Total Shot:  2787 Total Homicides:  476 Here are the number of police shootings in 6 years: 92 deaths, 2,623 shootings - NOT EVEN REMOTELY COMPARABLE.

Why calling a white person a Caucasian is inherently racist, as well as terms like African-American.

Image
Though absurdly common place, calling a person 'white' or a person 'Caucasian', picking a color to describe a person that could be from nearly any variation in the world is racist. Let's take a look at the common formal way of calling someone 'white': Caucasian. The term originates from the Caucuses, a region of Russian territory between the Caspian and Black Seas. Oh look, my homeland!! This is an area of the world that most people couldn't find on a map, and even fewer are actually from in any hereditary form, but none the less....CAUCASIAN (thanks to German  Johann Blumenbach) ! Thanks a lot Johann! What is funny is that calling people Caucasian is widely accepted though unbelievably inaccurate. Not unlike the use of the word 'African-American' to describe someone of dark skin. Very few people living in America are African-Americans, unless you somehow have a DNA rollback and find out they came from a portion of Africa; in most cas...

We need to end zero accountability in black culture.

Image
I'll never understand the way black culture in some parts of America looks at responsibility. In the latest spat of 'us vs them', 'citizens vs police', 3 officers in Chicago have lost their ability to be police. These officers are apparently in the wrong and fully culpable for killing, yes ruled a homicide, a man who not only stole (theft) a Jaguar, but then hit several cars (hit and run) and then for shits and giggles, hit a few cops as well (attempted murder). This wonderful individual and obvious benefit for society, was shot, in the back, and killed. Now we can openly debate whether cops too quickly become judge and jury in cases as it is quite clear they go to the gun a tad quickly – well quicker than an average citizen would be allowed to when protecting their life. But that isn't the issue here, it is the complete disregard for ones actions and an almost immediate rewrite of facts. As predicted a crowd of clowns had a vigil, this almost got s...

How to fix Police in the United States.

Image
We need to look at policing in the United States, not from a race perspective but from a view of systematically defining what we want police in 2016 to do. I offer the following recipe which takes out of the theory that there is a system that creates racial boundaries, but that the policing in modern era need not be what it is today. 1. MILITARIZATION Not only have we over-equipped our Police force, a body that has the sole purpose of bringing possible law breakers to a judicial body, but we have also over-ego'd them. We have convinced our Police Officers through the media (including social) that they are somehow life-saving, 'last line of defense', heroic Gods. They aren't. This doesn't mean occasionally they do great acts of self-sacrifice, of course they do. What it means is a false impression, and one that has gone bad. When an Officer is put on a mantle by society it doesn't just create a feeling of worth and purpose, but loathing from those that feel...

We need to stop paying the Federal Government, anything.

Image
Federal taxes, these things should be outlawed (in fact some readers of the Constitution offer, they already are). Instead of Federal wide taxes on individuals, why not a State execution of funds it chooses to allocate to a "Federal" body for certain elements in return: Defense, Inter-State Commerce Regulation, Defined Currency, National Trade. The Federal Government is awash in power and money, things that are equally bad in all proportions. The Founders of the United States had one thing in mind, States rights, not a Federal Governments - that's why it took them a while to determine how you 'lead' such a thing. States were given all rights aside from the ones explicitly called out to the Federal body. It's time we go back to that. States should determine how much they are willing to give of their 'GDP' to the Federal body, once they agree on that percentage, that is it. Let's say all States decide that 22% of their GDPs is efficient, then the...
