Contrary to the propaganda I was sold in elementary school, the #cops are NOT our friends and do NOT exist to "protect and serve" anything other than the status quo of white power and privilege (and/or their own violent sociopathy).
@corbin_lambeth The ties of the Israeli Zionist state and the US run deep into the security/police state - it's not just lobbying influence on the Federal level. The IDF trains US urban police forces and you can see the outcome of that alliance here. It's deeply problematic as an American to watch our citizens suffer repression because they disagree with the brutal policy of another foreign state. It's fucking untenable.
It’s always been obvious. Trump’s been a Russian operative–or a useful idiot for them–from the get-go. Remember 2016, when he openly requested that Putin interfere with our elections. Since then, it’s been a lovefest.
There's a reason adjudicated fraud, sexual abuser, defamer, and 88 felonies charged Trump cozies up to Putin. Putin helped Trump win his first term, and now Trump owes him. It was never about 'America First', it's always been about satisfying the dictator he's indebted to.
It all started in 1987 when the KGB paid for his trip to Moscow. In 2008 when Dmitry Rybolovlev bought his palm beach property for twice what trump had just paid for it…(and I have no doubt there are even earlier data points for when putin began grooming trump)…imagine how easy it must have been for a KGB agent to dupe him.
@skykiss Somehow he wiggled himself into a small space between the Russian mobs and the FBI, and is a useful tool to both - probably in helping to eliminate the Mafia in NYC. Made some FBI careers, eliminated competition for the Russian Mob. (And yes I know the Russian Mob and the KGB/FSB is the same thing)
MIL and I "arguing" about wife's return last nite for a good 15 mins. Ifs, buts, stupid stuff. I thot wife was coming home that nite. MIL thot diff. Finally I asked her why she was so insistant (bc I had my reasons too). She answered, because it's on the schedule. Well, if you fucking knew that, why didn't you just point it out? I retorted. Because I thought you knew. Was I talking like I did? FFS, don't let me go on being wrong!
Japanese thought process is beyond me. Too much assumption.
“We are like night and day, [Dylan] and I,” she said. “Bob is not authentic at all. He’s a plagiarist, and his name and voice are fake. Everything about Bob is a deception.”
“Musically, Dylan’s not very gifted; he’s borrowed his voice from old hillbillies. He’s got a lot of borrowed things. He’s not a great guitar player. He’s invented a character to deliver his songs … it’s a mask of sorts.”
US cops never turn out like this at Nazi rallies or school shootings, but against peaceful genocide protesters they bring their very best A game, huh? (Photo: Robert Gauthier/Los Angeles Times)
