News Item

Two Paterson, New Jersey councilmen and two men linked to a councilmen’s campaign have been charged with election fraud, mail-in voting fraud, and illegal possession of mail-in ballots.

Late last week, New Jersey’s Attorney General Gurbir Grewal announced election fraud charges against Paterson City Councilman Michael Jackson (D), Councilman-elect Alex Mendez (D), Shelim Khalique, and Abu Razyen.

And they would have gotten away with it if not for those nosy kids!

They got caught, ya know?

First the hospitals hit capacity in their ICUs.

Then they stopped reporting data.

If most white people were suddenly black they’d be fucked like the proverbial “fish out of water.”

In reverse most black people would be just fine because we already navigate through two different worlds.

But if whites were all then black,where'd be the conflict?

See?

To early to clue Bambi into the fact that all human  beings trace their origins back to roots in Africa, that even Swedish albinos aren’t white, and that not much about the west is all that civilized or Christian?

Saw a guy on tv prove it by dna.
He told all.

In 2020 though, people are divided into races...and religions.

Higher spending in restaurants translates to higher COVID-19 cases three weeks later, according to JP Morgan.

We've pointed this out before, but you (Ward and Bambi) have a hard time grasping it:

Robert E. Lee was not only a brutal slave owner, but a traitor to the country.

FDR was not only an antisemite but a person who worked hard to save the country.

Also, despite his antisemitic proclivities and his failure with the St. Louis, he still worked to save the Jews. Truman's antipathy towards the Jews was very real, but it, too, is very much countered by his actions. They worked beyond their personal biases.

I don't know that Wilson could see past his biases. Nothing in the record suggests that he did.

Well no one asked me but i'll proffer up my opinion.  The argument on statues is a distraction.  Symbols hold meaning but they are only symbols.  A police officer named Piner with racist opinions pining for the next civil war is much more dangerous than a status of a racist from the civil war.  I'm not saying statues that glorify those who oppressed people shouldn't be taken down.  I'm saying the effort spent there will exhaust the progressive movement and drag it down into endless debate.  That's what is happening now in this forum and on fox news when they say "Well next they'll wanna rename this or remove that...."  In the end what is it worth, how many hills do we want to die on?  Statues should be a lagging indicator of progress not a leading one.

The statues are a distraction but not by the folks pushing and organizing in the movement.

In the coming months you’ll discover most of the first nights of violence were coordinated, people pulling down statues of Grant reminds me of the FBI COINTELPRO.
A significant portion of the violence was proved from withinside the groups by undercovers. That was how a large number of black recruits came into NYPD in the mid 60s thru the late 90s.

Every Confederate monument is going to eventually come down through legislative means.

I think all the points you've made here have merit.  No doubt some "boogaloo bois" and their ilk are trying to stoke white southern outrage.  Which in turn is a reason for true progressives to take a hard pass on this debate.  Expose the insiders.

Clinton explains why Putin wants Trump to be president.

I think she nailed it.

I don't think "all cops."

I do think "way more cops than most people are prepared to admit or even to discuss."

The Green New Deal is our key to a robust energy future with jobs to raise a middle class to replace the one republicans have been destroying for decades after decade.

Instead of closing America off to the world, trump has closed the world off to America.

If it isn’t Roman Catholic then it’s not a proper Church, Pope tells Christians

The Vatican has described the Protestant and Orthodox faiths as “not proper Churches” in a document issued with the full authority of the Pope.
Anglican leaders reacted with dismay, accusing the Roman Catholic Church of paradoxical behaviour. They said that the new 16-page document outling the “defects” of non-Catholic churches constituted a major obstacle to ecumenism.

The document said that the Orthodox church suffered from a “wound” because it did not recognise the primacy of the Pope. The wound was “still more profound” in Protestant denominations, it added.
It was “difficult to see how the title of ‘Church’ could possibly be attributed to them”, said the statement from the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. Roman Catholicism was “the one true Church of Christ”.

Not difficult for me to see at all.
I'm quite happy with the Queen's church.
