There was a time when the Press were the true detectives and sought justice and the truth. There are some who still fit that category. However, they are under siege. If they fall democracy falls, and our government will be in shambles. There will be no more truth and justice.

Several years ago. I solicited Pam Bondi’s assistance in resolving a legal matter regarding my client. I thought she was ok. Now I see we are not on the same side of the Constitution. She should be ashamed.

Watching Howard Lutnick on Face the Nation. He hasn’t answered one question. It’s a waste of time seeking the truth rom anyone in this administration.

I personally believe that Trump won his first election because certain people were angry that a brown skin person won the presidency twice. He won the second presidency because the country wasn’t ready for a brown skin woman. That’s just my opinion, because I can’t rationalize any other reason.

For those who are so naive to believe that the winds only blow in one direction, will one day find themselves in harms way.

I believe we are falling for the Okie Doke. Yes, The Trump administration drop the ball on security. But I believe they fed that bone to us so that we wouldn’t pay attention to what they are doing to voting rights. Indeed security is very important, but voting rights are more important.

I’m mad as hell. This administration has swept up an innocent woman off the street, who has not physically harmed anyone. Shipped her out of her state, and detained her without legal process. Yet this president released people who physically harmed police. Where are the voices for right and justice

At this point we have no government. The congressmen and women as well as the senators are doing nothing for the people. They are just standing by and watching our democracy collapse. The colleges and law firms must stand up to this nonsense and fight with every they got.

This is the worse of times. What has this country become. A female graduate student with a valid visa is confronted by Ice Agents and sweep away out of the state. This isn’t the country I know. The people must rise up against this injustice. The constitution is for the people not against the them.

@maddow.msnbc.com Trump may be above the law, but the people who are carrying out his illegal orders aren’t. Why can’t we go after them? Trump may pardon them, but I’m sure they won’t like being jailed temporarily.

I am surprised that at Trump’s Inauguration, he didn’t say: “Ask Not What Your Country Can Do For You. Ask What You Can Do For Me!”

I don’t why anyone including myself, should be surprised by the lawlessness of this administration, when the president is a convicted felon.

Having worked in Children’s Medical Services, I have firsthand knowledge of the huge number of families on Medicaid. What the public may not be aware of is the fact that many middle class families need Medicaid to offset the high costs of medical care. These people are not freeloaders.

I was so proud of my upstate New Yorkers, who told their Democratic Representative, that should their representatives need them physically, they are willing to engage in Good Trouble, like John Lewis. There is no doubt in my mind, they will be needed.

Has anyone paid attention to the fact that many, many of the federal workers in DC who were fired, so happened to be White Women. From birth control to being able to fed their families, this administration has shown a total disregard for women and Brown People. They must be stopped.

@maddow.msnbc.com My wife’s client informed her that Walmart demoted her partner because she was gay and on that same day this client stated that Musk had stopped the funding for her PhD for medical research. People are hurting out here. There is nothing the courts can do?

@chriswarcraft.bsky.social mThanks Chris for taking a stand. I pray that others will follow your led.

At 74 I have seen and experienced a few things. It takes the people to remedy this madness. The people must come together to defend the constitution, and the laws of the land. As a Black man, I know that some laws are not applied equally, but if there are no laws, it’s hell to pay.

@arimelber.bsky.social Ari, last year I presented my sociology class in a nursing college, with a audio slide presentation featuring the song “Blowin in the Wind,” with pictures depicting the struggle. Asked what they got out of the presentation, they told me that something is in the wind. No clue!

Talking about speaking out of both sides of your neck. Trump is so full of S__t. He is so against immigrants, yet he wants to make 1.8 million people immigrants from Gaza.

How can any law enforcement officer be content with the DOJ’s ruling that their fellow law enforcement officers, who suffered injuries on January 6th are no longer victims. Just the pricks that assaulted them are now the victims.

It is said that “Ignorance is Bliss.” That is a lie! Ignorance is a catastrophe waiting to happen. Many of those who voted in this election were ignorant of history and the actual current status of the American economy. I hope those people pay attention for they are going to reap what they sowed.

On January 20th, we will embark on a rollercoaster ride. We know it’s not going to be a smooth ride and there will be some ups and downs. But the ride don’t last forever. If everyone exercise their right to vote, the next ride may be smoother.

Danger Will Robinson Danger! If Trump controls the media we will never know what despicable actions he may employ against anyone. Freedom of the press is just as important as freedom of speech, maybe even more so. Zuckerberg let us down, I hope no one else does.
January 8, 2025 at 10:07 PM
I am so disappointed with Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg. All he had to do with fact-checking was make automatic with AI. Therefore no person could be blamed.
