I agree 100%.  The time of "let's forgive and forget" is over.  If we don't prosecute Trump and everyone in his administration who actively engaged in corruption, then they will keep doing it again should they get in power.  Further, politicians in the future will act corruptly because they know they can get away with it.

Remember that Republicans have engaged in these "fake investigations" where they tried to prosecute democrats whom they saw as a threat. (Hillary Clinton).  And they certainly didnt afford Obama with the respect he deserved.  They have demeaned and disrespected us for years while they got rich from our taxes.  And they rarely bothered to reach across to the other party, prefering instead to engage in efforts to undermine our system.

The only way to put a stop to this is to make an example of them.  We tried being nice before, and they only got worse.  They won't learn to respect the laws until we finally make them pay the consequences.

Wow.  I just wrote a reply to the discussion on the last two pages.  WhenI went  to post it it threw me off the website.  I had a hard time getting back on and my post is gone  I know there are other readers on YouTube who have had troble with cencership.  I hope this isn't spreading to our channel.

Anyway my two items I found on the internet of interest this AM.

One the Tulsa area Craigs list is advertising for MINORITY actors to particilate in a rally on June 20.  the event can be used as communtiy service in lieu of payment!  there was a reporter who went incognito to a rump rally last year and said he saw people being bused in to participate. When he talked to one they said they were paid to attend.

Second item:  The leaks over the last year or so regarding the Orange ones business practices and taxes were leaked by his neice Mary.  SHe has written a book about the family.  Her father was the lyin kings older brother whom the family hounded into a job he didn't want and he died of complications of alcholism. (I actually heard all that from a friend who grew up in NYC)  They treated his children horribly.  I won't buy her book just like I won't buy the traiter Boltin's.  Not wasting my dollars.  It should have some interesting tidbits though.

Yes, the Supremes made a fantastic ruling to day and it wasn't split down the middle either.

It is a 1, 2, 3 punch to the occupier of the WH.  

First The Supreme Court LGTBQ work ruling.

Then the FDA revoked its emergency use authorization for the drugs hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine for the treatment of Covid-19. 

Now another Supreme design.  A decision to do NOTHING. 

The Supreme Court just  left in place a lower court opinion upholding one of California's sanctuary laws that limits cooperation between law enforcement and federal immigration authorities, a measure that the Trump administration says is meant to "undermine" federal immigration enforcement.

So, how is your day going so far "sir"?  A little like our last 3 and a half years perhaps?

You can add a 4th punch.

Mary Trump (cousin to you know who) wrote a book called Too Much And Never Enough which will be released in August, right before the convention RNC. 

Could she be part of his undoing??

One of the most explosive revelations Mary will detail in the book, according to people familiar with the matter, is how she played a critical role helping The New York Times print startling revelations about Trump’s taxes, including how he was involved in “fraudulent” tax schemes and had received more than $400 million in today’s dollars from his father’s real estate empire.

As she is set to outline in her book, Mary was a primary source for the paper's Pulitzer Prize-winning investigation, supplying Fred Trump Sr.’s tax returns and other highly confidential family financial documentation to the paper.

I think that the amount of voters who will want to vote for Biden /DEM will be a landslide over T. My only worry is THE voter suppression, like what happened in Georgia. The only way T and his GOP enablers and those GOP donors who are the true power behind him would stand a chance is cheating beyond what they've done before. They are going to try big time. We need just as much of a protest about that and black lives matter (both), because with T and the GOP in power-  they not only don't really care about black lives - they don't care about any lives beyond their own selfish interests.

 

Ps: as a matter of fact AFTER I typed this response I kept hearing "Ding dong Donnie is gone" (to the same tune as "Ding dong the witch is dead from Oz"

Holy Smokes folks!  Add a fifth.

The Supreme Court declined to take up a series of new cases seeking to expand gun rights.

The court rejected a total of 10 cases that had piled up in recent months.

@gbs  There's an article in today or yesterday's Washington Post describing Trump Losing the Narrative.  Don't know the exact title.  Mainly saying that his "jump the shark" tactics aren't working and he doesn't know what to do.  When things were good economically, people could be entertained by his tactics, but now he's exposed and people aren't having it. Makes sense to me.
