Congratulations to president elect Biden for this level-headed selection.
“…A 45-year-old parolee named Troy McAlister should have been in prison on New Year’s Eve, but instead of facing the Three Strikes life prison term he had earned through his criminal acts, he was set free by San Francisco DA Chesa Boudin. Since his April 2020 release, McAlister was arrested multiple times and released each time, with not even parole violation charges pursued.
McAlister, whose long rap sheet includes robbery and carjacking, was reportedly in a stolen car and under the influence of drugs and alcohol when he ran a red light and plowed into two pedestrians, both of whom died. McAlister fled the scene…”
Lawmakers say they want more time to investigate the irregularities that occurred in their respective states.

Democrat D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser didn’t want the National Guard in the Nation’s Capital during the violent George Floyd protests last June – but, she’ll be deploying them during this week’s pro-Trump rally.

OLD AND BUSTED: Turtles all the way down.
The New Hotness? Watergate all the way down: Carl Bernstein calls Trump’s Georgia call ‘far worse than Watergate.’
—The Hill, today.
But how does it compare to all of the other Trump moments that Bernstein said was “worse than Watergate?”
—Business Insider, September 10th, 2020.
● Legendary investigative journalist Carl Bernstein: ‘The Trump presidency is worse than Watergate.’
—Business Insider, August 3rd, 2018.
● Carl Bernstein: Russia probe feels ‘worse than Watergate.’
—Chicago Tribune, November 2nd, 2017.
Will anyone ask Bernstein his thoughts on how Trump compares to Dubya, whom he also compared to Nixon?
● Carl Bernstein: Bush Has Done “Far Greater Damage” Than Nixon.
—TruthOut, January 24, 2007.
● Carl Bernstein: Bush More “Disastrous” Than Nixon.
—The Nation, August 8th, 2007.
● Senate Hearings on Bush, Now:
Worse than Watergate? High crimes and misdemeanors justifying the impeachment of George W. Bush, as increasing numbers of Democrats in Washington hope, and, sotto voce, increasing numbers of Republicans – including some of the president’s top lieutenants – now fear? Leaders of both parties are acutely aware of the vehemence of anti-Bush sentiment in the country, expressed especially in the increasing number of Americans – nearing fifty percent in some polls – who say they would favor impeachment if the president were proved to have deliberately lied to justify going to war in Iraq.
—Carl Bernstein, Vanity Fair, April 17, 2006.
Flashback: “The lowest form of popular culture – lack of information, misinformation, disinformation, and a contempt for the truth or the reality of most people’s lives – has overrun real journalism. Today, ordinary Americans are being stuffed with garbage.”
Wow – Incredible Video 🔥

Why prosecute petty criminals? This is why.
“…These weren’t the vague, non-committal words of the President of the United States on the phone call leaked by theWashington Post newspaper – which has recently taken millions of dollars from the Chinese Communist Party – this Sunday. They were the statements of the establishment Republicans on the call: Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, Ryan Germany, and Deputy Secretary of State Jordan Fuchs on the January 2nd call.
Despite the partisan framing from the Washington Post – that the call somehow reflected Trump making demands for votes from his Republican colleagues – the President actually does no such thing. Throughout the call, the President makes clear that his calls are for election transparency, full and transparent audits, and public access. At no point does the President imply he wants votes invented or confected, as the establishment media is portraying. He even offers to recuse himself from parts of the conversation and ends by asking for “the truth… it’s just that simple.”…
…In fact the President begins the call by ripping through specifics that are never addressed by their opponents on the call: the establishment Republicans. Trump states:
The level of granularity was actually remarkable, especially for a President that the media continues to allege is not concerned with details…”

“Amen” has nothing to do with men or gender it translates to “so be it.” Democrat Rep. Emanuel Cleaver is apparently a United Methodist pastor. In the video below, Rep. Cleaver apparently thinks that “amen” refers to the male gender. Rep. Cleaver appears to be attempting to set a new standard where after prayer the congregants also refer to the female gender.
Wikipedia says this about “amen”
Amen (Hebrew: אָמֵן, ‘ʾāmēn’; Greek: ἀμήν, ‘amín’; Arabic: آمین, ‘āmīna’; Aramaic/Syriac: ܐܵܡܝܼܢ, ‘ʾāmīn’) is an Abrahamic declaration of affirmation first found in the Hebrew Bible, and subsequently in the New Testament. It is used in Jewish, Christian and Islamic worship, as a concluding word, or as a response to a prayer. Common English translations of the word amen include “verily”, “truly”, and “so be it”. It is also used colloquially, to express strong agreement.
A prayer opening the 117th Congress concluded, "Amen and a woman."
