Seattle is sure not the amazingly place I first visited in 1974, nor nearly the same as when I moved here 15 years later. I should have stayed in 🇦🇺 , or 🇨🇦
Four American soldiers died in Niger and the so call Commander in Chief haven’t said a word about their death. But yet this so call commander in chief can question black football players love and respect for this country because they are not standing for a flag or national anthem. Where is his respect for our soldiers?
QEII doesn’t seem to have much regard for GWB or WJC, LOL.
Here’s more of what we want to see. 🙂

New war in Middle East. Who will Trump back? My guess is Turkey will charm him w/ "All Kurds are terrorists". Could keep Isis alive. https://t.co/kUJygFk7nW
Interesting Bob that you quoted “boys will be boys.” Our Associate minister ( UCC) quoted that today as an excuse people use to excuse males in her sermon on sexual violence. She used the scripture from Genesis about Dinah, Jacob’s daughter, who was raped. She talked about how the women were never considered, but it was the man…father, brother…who was shamed, and she was to blame. It was a powerful sermon about this evil in our lives. Last week our Senior minister preached about the gun violence…..During each sermon I thought “Every minister should be preaching this sermon today.” but sadly, they aren’t. Actually, there are better sermons on tweets than are heard in many churches.
Thank you Bob for bringing that pitiful excuse to the public.
Agree a million times over! I hate when I hear the biggest excuse for boy’s bad and unacceptable behavior, EVER! I point that out every time I hear someone say that. Really, really, really a huge pet peeve of mine. Thank you for this tweet
Meta’s Twitter timeline highlights what’s happening now in the Kurdistan area of Iraq. Since FUBAR and Erdogan are such close pals, he will no doubt side with Turkey against the Kurds… not good news from the Middle East.
And tomorrow, US and South Korea begin joint naval exercises, and North Korea is preparing for a show of force…
Friday, FUBAR offered this clarification:
President Trump just asked about his ‘calm before the storm’ comment, said we’ll see what happens with North Korea

So all in all, the international news to begin the week looks foreboding…
And I know that it’s been two weeks, and with the various disasters that have happened since then (and continue in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands) most people have moved on, but official accounts on the Las Vegas shooting don’t add up — which has energized RWNJ devotees of gatewaypundit and infowars, but it really appears that updates on this event will only trickle from here on out.
There were two press briefings this week (on Tuesday and a hastily assembled one on Friday — Twitter tells me that there was little advance notice) — and it looks like Friday’s briefing may have been the final one.
There are no future press briefings scheduled on the #LasVegasShooting, according to @LVMPD.

Current timeline (Mandalay Bay security guard shot at 9:59 pm):

And the 1st two calls to 911 were disconnected (if dialed by people who were running for their lives, completely understandable if disconnect happened on their end):

Instead of dumping $$$$$’s on useless ads on useless media (these are ads are mediocre anyways), dems should recruit and pay liberally more local dem people to get the required voter ID’s, organize gotv etc. All politics are local and all that.
The Obamas walk the talk. We know what they stand for because of what they do, not just what they say. This young woman the only female photographer, was selected by MO. In the GM interview she talks about how she has transformed from the example and the words that Michelle shared all over the world with women young and old. She is part of that Obama legacy of learning and paying it forward. The Obamas’ light was the reason that such hate and darkness was pitted against them. Just by being who they are and standing always in their truth they shed a light on all of the crooked places. More of us saw them and added our light to theirs to make ourselves and our world better. What we see happening in our country now is that darkness throwing everything it can to overcome the light, but they will not win, in part, because of the thousands of young people whose lives the Obamas touched and transformed. There is an army of light and righteousness out here fighting, whose work we do not often see because of the corrupt media, but they/we are here and we will be victorious.

I have no doubt every single female on the planet has a story she would prefer NOT to have, and many will share. Too many will share more than one story, the sadness is tremendous and overwhelming, yet women keep on keeping on. May this finally be the turning point. You all know my view: back in the good ol’ Garden of Eden, that ‘snake’ Eve saw was undoubtedly Adam’s filthy penis, so the churches turned it around and put the burden on Eve to carry for how many millennia?? I’d better not get started, as it’s early and I have too much to do to be wearing the anger and frustration we are living at present. ❤️ Keep You The Heart ❤️ Big hugs all around. 🙏🏻🕯
I love these; there are others featuring all kinds of dads and daughters doing hair all over Youtube. Maybe Barack should have checked some out: remember the story about him doing Malia’s hair for a ballet recital and she said that it was a disaster when one of the mom’s offered to do her hair? I will bet when she recalls it now, she only thinks that Dad was there and dong his best. Blessed are the girls/women who have the kind of fathers who are there to help them to grow up to be confident women.
Trump didn’t stand for the “Retreat” at Air National Guard Base last week.:
““Laughing as the bugle call filled the air, Trump asked Hannity, “Are they playing that for you or for me?”” (Hunter)
All military personnel and civilian leadership are expected to stand for the flag but Trump did NOT.
Congratulations!

There is no law or policy that says a civilian has to sit stand or lie down for the national anthem: SCOTUS said so in 1943.
Unless apparently you’re a black or brown athlete. In which case Vacant Pence will also go to any lengths to delegitimize you as well. And apparently there’s no law that says this Vacant President has to serve and protect American citizens in Puerto Rico - where daily only tens of
thousands out of 3.4 million people are being fed - because PR’s debt was bought up for pennies on the dollar by Wall Street Vulture hedge funders like SETH KLARMAN. Media who’s kidding who? We know that hundreds of precious humans of all ages are dead by now there, no matter what nonsense is being reported. May donald trump go down Big Big Show Time for his avarice and genocide without delay.
