I am ticked off about the handling of the C-19 pandemic. Worst rate in the world slightly ahead of India. Just wear a mask and keep your distance! AOC fought to keep Amazon and high paying jobs out of NYC against the mayor, the governor, everybody. A rebel with misguided causes.

Before anyone starts yapping about Tulsi Gabbard and ballot harvesting don’t forget the source of this latest bullshit attempt to ratfuck the election.

Remember, Project Veritas is this guy:

Much more complicated. They’re expanding in Brooklyn anyway and the city and state didn't have to pay them $1.5 Billion in tax breaks to do it.

If you want to donate the best food for the charities, for the homeless and others, donate cans of Chef Boyardee Beef Ravioli, and also Dinty Moore Beef Stew. The homeless people will love it.

Salute,

Or you could leave. Hack.

Why?

So you could you post with like-minded educators more willing to indulge your idiocy.

Okay you can’t debate the issues I raised.

It’s cute you think you raised issues. Very Mr. Magoo, grandpa. Eat your peas. Change your diaper. Repeat the same ridiculous shit tomorrow when it will once again be new to you and seem like an epiphany filled with great wisdom.

Luee, there is a difference between rate and "total cases."

India is close to us un total cases, but their rate of cases is 1/5th of ours. And their rate of deaths is 1/9th of ours.

We are not the worst in the world in either of those issues - but we are in the worst 10 in the world for countries with more than a million citizens in both cases and deaths. Were it not for South America we would be in the "top" 5.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — A juror in the Breonna Taylor case contended that the Kentucky attorney general misrepresented the grand jury’s deliberations and failed to offer the panel the option of indicting the two officers who fatally shot the young woman, according to the juror’s lawyer.

The unnamed juror filed a court motion on Monday seeking the release of last week’s transcripts and permission from a judge to speak publicly to set the record straight. Hours later, the office of Attorney General Daniel Cameron granted both requests, saying that the juror is free to speak and that recordings of the session will be made public.

Wow.

Or, have we mentioned lately that police lie? And so do prosecutors?!

This fascist house of lies is already collapsing under the weight of all the evidence.

Tax fraud vs. tax avoidance/ The former prosecutor suggests that both Trump and his daughter are at risk of jail. And not just a slap on the wrists, either.

You called the Democrats hypocrites. I called the Republicans hypocrites. Let's call it a draw and you can post elsewhere.

LOL!

Ward has granted your point that they are hypocrites.

As it happens, they pride themselves on their abilities to deceive folks who believe in integrity and feel shame when they go against it.

Or as Ward would say, "LOL!"

I could try to slink to the gutter and battle you there but you are much more experienced down there.

You could try being honest, instead. It ought to be easier.

1,000 people at a party in Florida.

Tell me again, Ward, about how smart Americans are!

[bodiddley]

It's kind of frightening how poorly educated many Americans are.
And how easily they are duped into voting against their economic interests and for the plutocrat party of the rich and big business due to their dislike of non-white peoples and the manipulation of a few cultural issues.

In semi-related news, a number of NBA players have been wearing the message Education Reform on the back of their jerseys.  Reform always sounds like a good thing, and the education system seems pretty iffy in the USofA.  But anyone have any idea what kind of education reform is being supported?

[bodiddley]

Police as just another gang on the streets:

Some of the cops testified that on plainclothes squads, especially, stealing was the way to build trust. You knew you had to count on these people to have your back and to protect your life in dangerous situations. This was one of the ways that they did that. Over those 20 years there have been so many Baltimore police officers indicted on drug-dealing charges.

Stealing drugs and reselling them -- two significant felonies -- were the way to build trust among fellow police.  They knew you were okay and reliable if you were a criminal like them.  Because, as in the Mafia, they had something over you, they knew what you'd done, and could use it against them. 

Over the last generation, we’ve let the drug war just destroy the Fourth Amendment. While we’ve had all of these debates about the First and the Second Amendment, the Fourth Amendment has just really been demolished.

Again, just end the War on US Citizens due to Drugs and there would be a lot less crime, a lot less corruption, criminals would have a lot less money, a lot fewer lives would be ruined, and a lot less money would be spent on incarceration and the criminal justice system.   Simply the biggest problem is the arbitrary illegality of  drugs, which does much more harm throughout society than the drugs do (and the drug harm continues unabated as well, so it's the worst of both worlds).

It was legal?

Only allowed to have 20 people at a gathering in NSW bambuland.
21 or more...every person present gets fined $1000...and NSW has had no new community transmissions of covid-19 for 2 days straight...a few in hotel  quarantine.

About that idea that democrats will throw a snit fit and pack SCOTUS with more Justices.

Representatives Collin C. Peterson (D-MN) and Denver Riggleman (R-VA) have introduced an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to permanently set the number of U.S. Supreme Court Justices at nine.
The proposed amendment states: “The Supreme Court of the United States shall be composed of nine Justices”.


While this will go nowhere it does indicate that just because the Senate democrat leaders are making revenge threats the rank and file will agree. After the 2008 Obama takeover 62 dems who goose- stepped to his arrogance over the stimulus and ObamaCare were booted out of office.
The number of dems already opposed before Ginsberg’s death( including Biden AND Ginsberg ) is significant and
today West Virginia Democrat Joe Manchin added his voice saying  he would not support any party effort to add justices.
Moreover a Post/AP poll today shows 62 per cent of voters also opposed.

So... roughly the same percentage - and one fewer Senator - as oppose appointing a justice before.the innaugiration.

LOL!

Yes, I also find your intellectual dishonesty hilarious .
