Look

“This is where we are at right now, as a whole. No one is left out of the loop. We are experiencing a reality based on a thin veneer of lies and illusions.
A world where greed is our God and wisdom is sin, where division is key and unity is fantasy, where the ego-driven cleverness of the mind is praised, rather than the intelligence of the heart.”
– Bill Hicks
Making something illegal, doesn’t prevent it from happening, it merely sets up a mind construct for control, profit and manipulation, violence and death.
Especially if you are the head muckity muck in the Executive Execution branch, manipulating and infecting the diseased and dying Judicial and Legislative branches being a sparrow hawk, flitting around the media offshoot, to tweet your alleged innocence.
Before actually being charged with a crime. If you do not do anything wrong you can not get caught.
Am quite sure Stephon Clark would have liked the same protracted public prosecution to prove that he was only carrying a cell phone.
Perhaps he was trying to tweet that before getting shot at 20 times, landing (brutally piercing) 6 (six) in the BACK.
“Stephon Clark was shot and killed on the evening of March 18, 2018, by two officers of the Sacramento Police Department in Sacramento, California, United States.
The officers were looking for a suspect who was breaking windows in the Meadowview neighborhood, and confronted Clark, an unarmed 22-year-old African-American man whom they found in the yard of his grandmother’s house, where he resided.”

RIDICULOUS ONLY HAVE CELL PHONE
NO GUN, OBVIOUSLY NO GUN FOUND
Was just inside at grandmas having pie
Unfair, delivering justice on an instant whim WHY TURN OFF SOUND ON BODY CAMERAS ? If you do not do anything wrong you can not get caught.

Stephon Clark shot to death for allegedly breaking windows. Seems a tad harsh.
(For the sake of argument, windows can be replaced. Unlike breaking up families at the border as is the administration’s immigration policy, might be a little harder to fix, or replace if they can be reunited at all.)
DJT rewriting the tax code so he has more and you have less is stealing.
Those white collar criminals sure are savvy sunsabitches aren’t they??
Theft is theft, right? An election perhaps, so immediate family can manipulate international policy (Qatar) geared towards clearing up “Inside Man” style. Pretty Kushy deal.
“As a result, Kushner should have fully recused himself from participating in US foreign policy matters involving Qatar,” wrote an ethics expert for CNN this March.
Kushner was key in advising Trump on the U.S. response to the blockade of Qatar by its Saudi and United Arab Emirates only a month after the Kushner Cos. unsuccessfully solicited funding from the Qatar finance minister for the 666 Fifth Ave.”

Or altering up another country’s tariff that they might (okay, actually did) loan (give) you money on the sly to keep a business afloat.
“Then there is a darker imputed motive, based on the fact that a Chinese state-controlled company loaned US$500-million to an Indonesian theme park that will feature hotels, a golf course and a residence branded with the Trump name. The news came just days before the President’s tweet.
Coincidence or not, it looks bad because Mr. Trump refuses to divest himself of his business interests.”

Oops
Where is the Sacramento police to stop those crimes?
Nevermind they’re too trigger happy around guys carrying cell phones.
This is just as good as any place to drop in once again Ayn Rand’s law quote.
“Did you really think we want those laws observed?” said Dr. Ferris. “We want them to be broken. You’d better get it straight that it’s not a bunch of boy scouts you’re up against…
We’re after power and we mean it… There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals.
Well, when there aren’t enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.
Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What’s there in that for anyone?
But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted – and you create a nation of law-breakers – and then you cash in on guilt.
Now that’s the system, Mr. Reardon, that’s the game, and once you understand it, you’ll be much easier to deal with.”
― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

Integrity supercedes “legality”
Can you say Daniel Elsburg?
Pen……ta……gon Pa……pers.
If the Vietnam War was going
On today, Sean Hannity would
Not want any whistle blowers
Around saving lives, cause the
Information is “Classified”, boy
He sure tried to keep his name
Classified, so no one would know
How much he was on the
Proverbial take and why every
Story was pro Trump and Cohen
Which is when you realize Sean
Is a propagandist not a journalist
Fox news is definitely trying to
Force the truth rabbit down
The Orwellian memory hole.
Deceptively distributing dialogue
In conversational cups of Kool-aid
To a ceaseless stream of sycophants
Which is not to say lives are at stake
Like they were in Vietnam per se
But rather the fragility of your sanity
As you are subjected to it constantly
Because 45 may or may not have
Colluded with Russia or perhaps to
Pay back some loans he defaulted on
We will never know or definitively prove
Like whom may have shot Kennedy
What really happened to 3 NY buildings
(That Rudy quickly shipped off to China,
Recycled evidence is hard to sift through)
Or nonexistent planes in DC and PA
All being completely lost in the ether
* “The answer is blowing in the wind”
And why as an allegedly civil society
We can’t stop the proliferation of WMD’s
A gun or an assult rifle is a WMD too
Feed and house the homeless and
Take care of all our fellow space travelers
However, what we do know is that
His leadership is not really leadership
It is riding a “brand” that had an image
Of lifestyles of the rich and famous
Propagated into a TV reality *porn “star”
Feeding an illusion he was successful
That kept non-pinks out of his buildings
Mal-reported revenues cheating taxes
Objectified, assaulted women, allegedly
Very sure he violates the vocabulary
Definitely destroys decent dialogue
Confuses chaotic content for context
And finally since this went off the rails
Superficiality supercedes normality
Or reality
Or humanity
Or humility

Yes, and how many times

And pretending that he just doesn’t see?
The answer, my friend,

The answer is blowin’ in the wind
Yes, and how many times

As long as the economy keeps plugging along, it’s a laissez-faire free for all, so we consume everything the corporations can kick out of their factories with higher and higher prices.
To the same degree that health care turns malignant and education is dumbed down.
Fueled in every household by the telescreens playing out the suspense, drama, comedy, tragedy whodunit mystery with constant chaotic commentators, some giving clues, some distracting from same clues.
With the bulk of the content provided by the same advertisers. On eve channel.
The big ones sponsoring every angle by friends, hoping to get in the last word before the eleventh hour spinning around 360 degrees, separated in 60 minute increments, before getting all tuckered out from the calamity in the shadows.
“Since Trump became president, cable news networks have enjoyed strong ratings. With late-breaking news from Washington seemingly a daily occurrence,”
– Forbes
By calling it news, we can only delude ourselves that we are being informed. If “news” was called “speculation and hyperbole”, which is closer to the truth.
The collective would realize they are simple pawns in an unwitting game of consumerism.
“You guys are obsessed with Trump. Did you used to date him? Because you pretend like you hate him, but I think you love him.
I think what no one in this room wants to admit is that Trump has helped all of you. He couldn’t sell steaks or vodka or water or college or ties or Eric, but he has helped you.
He’s helped you sell your papers and your books and your TV. You helped create this monster, and now you’re profiting off him.
And if you’re going to profit off Trump, you should at least give him some money, because he doesn’t have any.”
– Michelle Wolf
Guess we could kind of blame MTV, Ozzy, Sharon, Jack and Kelly for initiating this pseudo reality watchable train wreck, smoke and mirrors, faux danger, debilitating distraction into a heady conglomeration tangled and torn spool of fishing line so messed up there is no place to start to maybe straighten it out, without tossing in the towel and buying a new reel to begin anew.
Trumping all other reality shows merely by its 24/7 programming ad nauseum schedule. Regurgitated and repeated. Feeding the narcissistic nightmare beast, a daily diet of exaggerated inflated incompetent ego.

Regardless the mindless chants (No-bel, No-bel, Nobel, Nobel) of the easily manipulated, who must also believe in Tinker Bell, Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and Dumbo’s magic feather.
Those, that can also be easily caught up in an Orwellian two minutes hate of “lock her up”, “lock her up”, shift easily like a well oiled weather vane in a light breeze.
If you broker a “peace” deal through insults, arrogance, manipulation, hyperbole and fear, that, is neither peaceful or a deal. Merely an optics moment of one tyrannical bully out maneuvering another tyrannical bully.
Not to mention, 45 hasn’t even gotten involved yet. Save being in the “enemy of my enemy is my friend” category.
As his rhetoric was putting the south in a perilously precarious position of being circumstantially wiped out, by geography.
Laying out his mad man prick waving, “my nuclear button is bigger than your nuclear button” adolescent small dick fear insecurities.
A petulant president vs. “Rocket Man”
Like the presidential peace prize recipients Roosevelt, Wilson, Carter and Obama, who could also, all have been charged as war criminals ought not to have gotten any prize with the word “peace” in it.

Perhaps 45 should be given * “the all-being master of time, space and dimension” award.
Then he could retire, having accomplished everything possible that is possible, go home and go golfing.
Wear an “I made the cosmos great again” hat. Putter around on a golf cart. Call his “friends” @ Fox who won’t have to kindly kick him off the air to salvage his reign.
Granted, we will have Pence for a while, but methinks he at least has a functional vocabulary.
Will probably be just as entertaining politically, and selfishly, my ears might stop bleeding from my cranium cringing at 45’s dull deceptive diabolical dialogue.
* Inspired by Steve Martin’s bit on goals.
“You gotta have a series of smaller goals, that you can accomplish, and slowly work your way up. And this is what I have done.
That’s why I’m so happy.
My goal: right now, I want to be the all-being master of time, space and dimension.
Then, I want to go to Europe – I think.”

If the bowler up before you throws
A slow, but deliberate strike and
Confidently returns to their seat
Because it is no longer their turn
Then you get up and watch the
10 Pins fall because you stepped up
You do not get the credit for that.
Regardless of where you stand and
Tout the accomplishment as yours
Telling teammates to take the big X
Because the economy is buying drinks
And the other team will ignore you
Since they are getting drunk to forget
How obnoxious you have become
Distracting them with NFL stories
And the fence you intend to build
You say your neighbor is paying for
Though to all, the truth is known
As it’s obvious you have no balls
