RUSSIAN STYLE 1-CANDIDATE ELECTIONS
The C-Span call in is for Republicans only, on the question of whether Nikki Haley should stay in the race. Apparent MAGA callers want her censored out of the race, according to their comments.
WHAT WE DON’T KNOW
C-Span opened their phones for so many excellent views that to choose just a few would be impossible. One is heartened that so many Americans have awakened to the corruption in our government as we have meandered down the path of “running government like a business”. This on a continuum is organized crime.
ALMOST HONEST
One can commiserate with the plight of a young MSM talking head challenged with news of indictment of her Senator father for bribery, and still notice the MSM/political Party revolving door that has undermined public trust in a Free Press.
CURTAIN OF INDOCTRINATION
A Free Press is illusive in the USA in 2023. Collaboration between business interests and government currently control a preponderance of what passes as news; and censorship seems used to silence diverse views.
MEDIA AWARE
One risks being wearisome because, as says Bernie Sanders, I keep talking about it because it keeps happening (paraphrase). This time a subliminal message emits from Dr. Phil.
NEWS BLACK-OUT
This summer we seem to have reached a tipping point about effects of global warming on humanity and nature that would permit denial as an obviously inane view. And so Establishment has assumed a policy of mitigation as to the impact, rather than dealing with the underlying anomalies of lifestyle that contributed to the global warming. This seems to be a policy that indulges big-money campaign donors who profit by the harmful policies that contribute to global warming, and is based on dependence of lawmakers on the largess of Citizens United, to their personal well being. This leaves out attention to the needs of We The People.
WHO CAN WE TRUST?
Lies are direct or by omission. Then there’s the lie of charming disarming by persuasion…aka actors. Recognize them.
PROFESSIONALISM OR DICTATORSHIP
A new normal is in place in the USA about which youngsters are oblivious. Professional designation is the smokescreen for dictatorial control. Education indoctrinates into capitalism rather than teaches democracy.
LISTEN TO YOUR GRIFTER
Apparently grifters will say it as often as possible, hoping it will begin to sound true.
FREE PRESS, HEALTH CARE, AND BIDEN
With the Biden announcement about running for the Presidency in 2024, several thoughts come to mind.
HR5 BIPARTISANSHIP
HR5 has been discussed by the R&D Duopoly. The topic is parental involvement in education of children.
THE VALUE OF UFO’S
The value of the recent UFO concerns in the USA that has an infinitesimal chance of being aliens from outside of our universe, is the attention-grabbing ability that may accrue toward those who may otherwise be running around in red caps and annoying others. A significant value is to shine light into the dark corner of government secrecy that is out of sync with a democracy.
MYOPIC OLIGARCHY
Oligarchy can be defined by myopia.
The mindset was on display on C-Span this morning.https://www.c-span.org/video/?525774-4/washington-journal-michael-gordon-discusses-chinese-military-capabilities-threats-posed-us –FEBRUARY 12, 2023 | PART OF WASHINGTON JOURNAL 02/12/2023
HOW DO WE LEARN?
A functioning journalist working within the framework of principles of a Free Press could easily debunk Russian propaganda with an interview with Ukrainian Alexsey Arestovich.
