Michael Fanone

 

Michael Fanone, with his dog Buddy, doing his own version of taking back the Capitol in August.

In an extraordinarily candid interview with Rolling Stone, Michael Fanone – the Washington police officer who was seriously hurt at the US Capitol 1/6 attack – called the Republican House leader, potentially the next speaker, a “fucking weasel bitch”.

on Josh Hawley's Jan. 6 actions: "He comes down there, flashes the sign of solidarity, riles up this fucking crowd."

"He ran like a bitch as fast as he fucking could to the closest safe room in the fucking Capitol building."

 on Marjorie Taylor Greene: "Put her in the tinfoil-hat brigade."

Fanone on Andrew Clyde: "When confronted in person, he fucking folded like a fucking deck of cards."

"I think at night, when the lights are turned off, Abe Lincoln and Ronald Reagan have some pretty choice words ... They've got to adorn the wall of this fucking weasel bitch named Kevin McCarthy, with his fake fucking spray-on tan."

Fanone's memoir , Hold the Line  will be available at a bookseller near you on  October 11, 2022.

The Disunited States Of America

 The Disunited States Of America

(found on Tribel.com)

When you follow current events fairly closely it’s really hard to completely understand what’s going on with America these days.

On the one hand, you have a government in place that won the last election by more than 7 million votes, which easily counts as a landslide.

And on the other hand you have millions of people who have been convinced by a man who has been proven time and again to be a charlatan that the election was rigged and that he actually won.

You have a government that’s doing all it can to control inflation brought about by the pandemic and a major war, helping people pay off student debt to help improve the economy, making drug prices affordable, expanding the health care system, pressuring oil companies to lower the cost of gasoline, fighting the obscenity of a total ban on abortion, and a whole host of other things that are good for the country. Yet this same bunch of people are convinced that their government is doing nothing for them.

You have a republican party that promises to undo all of the aforementioned as part of their platform and these same people don’t see that as one of the purer forms of political insanity.

I hate to break it to America but close to half the people in that country are completely out to lunch. They have become the albatross around the neck of the country, mainly because, like a broken record, they are stuck spouting the same wretched and totally false right wing talking points ad nauseam.

Looking at it from the outside, all I see is a huge divide, where one side is making sense and trying to move the country forward, and the other side is making no sense and simply complaining about everything the other side is doing.

It’s a very strange thing to see, and it’s not just me who is seeing it, it’s the entire rest of the world, who used to think that America was this great democracy, but now see it as being eroded from within, mostly by ignorance, hatred and greed.

Jamie Raskin is the man!

 

I love this man, he is the consummate representative for all American people, not just Maryland.  

Royal Racism

 I came across this video last night and was moved by it. 

After reading all the hateful tweets by British people this past week,

I feel  anger and sorrow for Harry and Meghan.

It's nauseating that the Royalty believed in their "purity" so

badly they didn't want their bloodline to be sulied.  The tabloids 

are the worst.  

Proud of this couple for choosing their lives over the stuffiness and racist

mind sets of Harry's lineage.
