“Jesus Christ came to save the whole world from the Jews — the founders of the original Anti-Christ religion, they who are the seed of the Serpent, that brood of vipers,” states an Oct. 4 blog post signed “Fritz Berggren, PhD” and titled “Jews are Not God’s Chosen People. Judeo-Christian is Anti-Christ.”


“They murdered Jesus Christ,” the 5,300-word post continues, “How then can they be God’s chosen?”


No..Not bambu or RED...but...According to a directory viewed by POLITICO, Berggren is currently assigned to a State Department unit that handles special immigrant visas for Afghans. His previous positions have included serving as a financial management officer at the U.S. Embassy in Bahrain, according to an older directory.

Asked about Berggren, a spokesperson for the State Department declined to say whether his remarks had led to internal disciplinary measures of any kind. “We will not comment on internal personnel matters beyond saying that these are personal views and do not represent those of the State Department,” the spokesperson said. “As a department, we embrace and champion diversity, equity and inclusion as a source of strength.”

On Feb. 24, the center updated its account to reveal that “as of February 19, 2021, state lawmakers have carried over, prefiled, or introduced 253 bills with provisions that restrict voting access in 43 states.”   

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/28/opinion/voter-suppression-us.html

This is the real war for democracy in the United States.  The narrative that all this effort is to protect the "sanctity" of the electoral process is deeply false.


“When a party’s electoral strategy depends on fewer people voting it means they know their policies suck.”

I think y’all have heard me say this for years.

We have.   We need to make part of it an acronym,  for easy quick use.

They know their policies suck!

Where's a good place to donate money for full electoral access?   This is something I want to really support.   I guess the Brennan Center is a good starting place.

The family photos animation is creepy as fuck.   And kind of disrespectful to the souls of the deceased ones.

You lot have got to rediscover the less obnoxious, offensive, and objectionable forms of wooing.

There's a 'baby drought' now in my world.
Of course there is.
Covid, expensive everything, the fantasy world is finished.
People are waking up to the fact that the average marriage only last 12 years then the misery starts.
Divorce, property settlement wars, custody battles, alimony payments, unemployment, ageism.
And the icing on the relationship misery cake is MAFS (Married At First Sight), back on my tv screen for 2021.

I can see some people liking it, but I think that mostly some things should be left alone.

I only showed it here to demo how AI will and is being used to spread dis- and misinformation.

OK new conspiracy theory, the open border amnesty agenda is being pushed by real estate speculators. Here in Florida real estate values have jumped up dramatically since Biden was elected. Can hardly find a for sale sign in the lower end. Corporations are buying up communities. Drug dealers want their families to live a better life in Amerika. No more room for retirees in New Honduras.

Florida republicans laundering drug money through their real estate cartels again? It’s an old story in the Sunshine state.

Like the mosquitoes, DeSantis views you as a blood bag on which he feeds.

You have to be willing to put up with a lot to live in Florida.

If you animate me after I’m dead, bring me back dancing like Gregory Hines.

Got the first Pfizer shot two hours ago, next shot set for 3/22.


So far no ill effects such as injection point soreness, body aches  etc...

The whole process from start to finish was less than 24 hours.

GOP PAC is insane. Still with the election fraud, De Santis is leading candidate after Donald!

There's just as much variation when you consider divorce rates by U.S. state. Fourteen states have a divorce rate of 50-65%. Oklahoma, for example, has the highest divorce rate of any state, with 65.7% of marriages ending in divorce court. Twelve states have a divorce rate ranging from 15% to 39%, with the remaining states falling in between. Hawaii boasts the lowest divorce rate of any state, at around 20%.

Could be a 9-0 outcome if the three liberal Justices follow the Voting Rights Act.

That would be a great day for democracy if they followed the VRA and reversed Shelby v Holder,  9-0.  Would open up access to the ballot and reverse terrible trends in gerrymandering and shutting down polling stations.
