Instead of calling him Trump and go into details of analysis of his ongoing deranged behaviour, just say the Grifter, as predictable as any other day, lied, cheated and committed numerous illegal activities.

Tracker Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 National Guard units were ordered to be overly aggressive out of fear of what Trump might do next At one event after another, Donald Trump has encouraged police and security guards to be more violent toward protesters. Whether that’s encouraging guards to beat up those waving signs as they are dragged from one of his rallies, telling police to “not be so gentle” when conducting arrests, or insisting that forces need to “dominate the streets” to push back peaceful protests, Trump loves violence. As his 1989 full-page ad urging the murder of five innocent Black teenagers demonstrated vividly, this is nothing new for Trump. So it should be no surprise that in addressing peaceful protesters outside the White House following the police murder of George Floyd, National Guard units were ordered to use aggressive tactics that went well beyond how they would normally deal with the situation. The reason for this wasn’t just to please Donald Trump; it was done out of fear that if the Guard didn’t play rough enough, Trump would call in military troops from the 82nd Airborne Division and launch a genuine battle against civilians. Under pressure, the National Guard treated civilians in a way that has rattled the force and led to a suspension of recruitment. But apparently … Trump was pleased. https://www.alternet.org/2020/06/national-guard-units-were-ordered-to-be-overly-aggressive-out-of-fear-of-what-trump-might-do-next/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other cases and places, there were also many indications that a dictatorial regime was readying to seize absolute power but in most cases, the majority of people could not bring themselves to believe that it would actually happen. In the other cases, the public was led to believe that only a tyrant could lead them out of whatever crisis they thought was happening and went along, believing that it was a necessity and a temporary one at that.

Tracker Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Here’s How John Bolton’s Lawyer Just Threw Him Under the Bus If you can be prosecuted for keeping a classified document in your garage, you can be prosecuted for giving it to your lawyer. John Bolton, Donald Trump’s former National Security Advisor, wanted to write a book. He knew that the White House would do everything they could to stop him. He hired a flashy white shoe law firm to handle the prepublication review process required by the nondisclosure agreement he signed when he got his security clearance. As expected, the White House weaponized the prepublication review process against him to keep him from publishing. If he published without approval, they said, he could face severe legal consequences. Then his lawyer, Chuck Cooper, wrote a Wall Street Journal op-ed this week intended to put public pressure on the White House. In it, Cooper volunteered that Bolton had violated both his NDA and perhaps a few criminal laws, including the Espionage Act. Now, even if Bolton’s book is never released, he is facing stiff penalties. As unforced legal errors go, that’s a doozy. https://www.thedailybeast.com/john-boltons-trump-white-house-book-is-due-out-soon-but-his-lawyer-just-threw-him-under-the-bus-2?ref=home Mr Dee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracker Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 When Donald Trump tried to stage a coup: Was June 1 the turning point? Last week our president tried to send the Army into America's streets. Aides pushed back, but it was a close call During his three and a half years in office, President Trump has succeeded in damaging every institution of politics and government, from the Department of Justice to the federal courts to the Foreign Service and the State Department to the intelligence community, public health agencies and beyond. But until fairly recently he had more or less left the U.S. military alone. There were been some skirmishes with his first defense secretary, James Mattis — but in the end, Mattis resigned over a policy dispute, an event well within regular executive branch norms. But then, after being lobbied by a Fox News commentator, Trump intervened in the military justice system and pardoned three accused war criminals late last year, causing the secretary of the Navy to resign in protest. It turned out Trump had no more respect for the military than anything else. https://www.salon.com/2020/06/12/when-donald-trump-tried-to-stage-a-coup-was-june-1-the-turning-point/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAKE A ONE-TIME DONATION Trump stuns viewers by saying the concept of ‘chokeholds’ is ‘so innocent, so perfect’New President Donald Trump is weighing in on critical issues in the national conversation, by defending police chokeholds as “innocent,” “perfect,” and at times necessary, while suggesting that perhaps they should be banned, yet offering hypothetical examples of when they are necessary. He also says the nationwide protests against the killing of George Floyd, by a white police officer who pressed his knee into the unarmed, handcuffed, Black man’s neck for nearly nine minutes, are not only “unnecessary,” but “riots.” “I think the concept of chokeholds sounds so innocent, so perfect,” Trump told Fox News host Harris Faulkner in a pre-recorded interview that aired Friday afternoon, “and then you realize if it’s a one-on-one now if it’s a two-on-one that’s a little bit of a different story – depending – depending on the toughness and strength, you know we’re talking about toughness and strength, we are talking there’s a physical thing here also.” https://www.alternet.org/2020/06/trump-stuns-viewers-by-saying-the-concept-of-chokeholds-is-so-innocent-so-perfect/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Deputies Claim They Killed a Black Man in His Home When He Tried to Grab a Gun. His Family Says Otherwise. “He was murdered without justification,” the family’s lawyer said. “It was 100 percent avoidable.” A Los Angeles man was fatally shot in his home by deputies Thursday morning in a tragic domestic-dispute call gone wrong. His family, however, insists the tragic incident could have been avoided if authorities didn’t prematurely pull the trigger. Michael “Blue” Thomas, 62, was killed in his living room in the early hours on Thursday after Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department deputies responded to a domestic dispute call, a spokesperson told The Daily Beast. But while authorities claim Thomas was shot after reaching for one of the deputy’s guns, his fiancé and attorney insist the opposite—that he was turning away. “They broke the front down and they grabbed Mr. Thomas immediately,” Bradley Gage, the family’s attorney, told The Daily Beast on Friday. “As they were holding him, they hurt him by twisting his arm. At that point, because he was uncomfortable, Mr. Thomas tried to move and one deputy just stepped back and shot him.” https://www.thedailybeast.com/family-of-michael-thomas-dispute-deputies-explanation-of-fatal-shooting-in-his-los-angeles-living-room?ref=home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His address to the nation will happen in Jacksonville on the 60th anniversary of a Ku Klux Klan attack in the city known as "Ax Handle Saturday." On Aug. 27, 1960, a KKK-led mob of hundreds of white people attacked black civil rights protesters holding sit-ins at whites-only lunch counters in the city, chasing them through the streets and beating them with bats and ax handles stashed in Hemming Park. At the time, the city's mayor — Haydon Burns, a white man — suppressed the story, and the attack was not commemorated until 2001, when a marker was laid in the park. The New York Times characterized it as "one of the darkest days in the city's history. https://www.salon.com/2020/06/12/trump-to-accept-gop-nomination-in-jacksonville-on-anniversary-of-kkks-ax-handle-saturday-attack/ (I'm sure its just another innocent coincidence) Mr Dee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
