61st Anniversary Of JFK Assassination: It Still Hurts!

As I write this blog entry, the time of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy arrives, the most tragic event of my lifetime until September 11, 2001!

A young, vibrant, charismatic, good looking young President, murdered at a time when there was hope and optimism about the future of America.

This is very different than the present sense of pessimism and dread that millions of Americans feel after the nation has put into the White House a man who represents the worst elements of the American experience.

The fact that two women–Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris–who represented the sense of hope and change that Kennedy represented six decades ago, lost to Trump is very much a source of disappointment.

It is not as if John F. Kennedy was perfect or had a perfect rcord in office, but he inspired millions by being the youngest elected President in American history.

And the fact that his nephew, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has so damaged the historical memory of both his father, Robert F. Kennedy, who was also taken from the nation by assassination, and his uncle, by his horrendous and lunatic conspiracy theories about health and medicine, is tragic.

And the fact that RFK Jr. is about to work with Donald Trump in undermining the health care system, makes the anniversary of the JFK Assassination more depressing than ever before.

Two “Democrats” Who Now Are MAGA Republicans And Cabinet Members!

It is stunning that two former Democrats are now MAGA Republicans, and will be part of Donald Trump’s second term Cabinet, assuming they are confirmed by the Republican majority in the US Senate!

Both are very dangerous to be part of the Cabinet, but sadly, we are faced with the likelihood that they will be in key positions

Tulsi Gabbard, former Democratic Congresswoman from Hawaii, as Director of National Intelligence, despite her flirtations with Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad and Russian President Vladimir Putin over recent years. The thought that such a person, who is a massive security risk, would become the leading spy executive of our federal government is horrifying beyond belief!

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, son of the late Senator and Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, as Secretary of Health and Human Services. Kennedy is a conspiracy theorist; anti vaccine advocate; against flouride in America’s water supply; and desirous of damaging America’s health care system. He is a disgrace to the Kennedy family name, and has a horrendous history of drug and alcohol abuse, and sexual misconduct during his three marriages.

Neither Gabbard nor Kennedy should have any impact on American government policy, and both are very dangerous, but unlikely that either can be stopped from gaining power under Donald Trump!

J D Vance Controversial VP Nominee, Promoting Anti Haitian Immigrant Conspiracy Theory!

Republican Vice Presidential nominee J D Vance is already perceived as the least regarded and most controversial nominee for Vice President since Sarah Palin, and with a lower rating than both Palin and former Vice President Dan Quayle in public perception.

Donald Trump could have selected a less controversial nominee to be a heartbeat away from the Oval Office, but he chose Vance, who is perpetuating a conspiracy theory about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, that they are eating residents’ pet cats and dogs, a preposterous charge!

Vance, already suspicious due to his chameleon nature, having switched totally in his views of Donald Trump from years ago, also has stated that “Civil War” is still going on in America, and that he sides with the South and the “Confederacy” against “the woke North”.

Vance’s open racism and nativism, and his promotion of division and confrontation is alarming, and his demagoguery will make the upcoming CBS Vice Presidential debate on October 1 a moment of great public attention, when Democratic VP nominee Tim Walz confronts the controversial and divisive Vance!

Danger Of Extremism Escalation By Donald Trump Supporters

The good news coming out after the attempted assassination of Donald Trump is that Trump and Joe Biden have spoken, and they had a cordial call.

Also, Trump has said his acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on Thursday has been modified to promote the idea of unity.

It seems that Trump, having a near death experience, may have been sobered in his approach to rhetoric, and we can hope so.

But that does not mean that his most vehement supporters, necessarily, will take the same view, as already, there are conspiracy theories on the internet and social media, designed to divide and stir up animosity against Democrats and President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

So there are fears that there could be more violence and potential bloodshed for the next four months of the Presidential and Congressional election campaigns.

And there is still the danger that the right wing, if they lose, will refuse to accept the results, and another January 6 type Insurrection or worse, could be in the offing.

Everyone needs to make an effort to calm partisan rhetoric that encourages confrontation, and while making partisan points, promotes the concept of a peaceful resolution of who is elected to run our federal, state, and local governments.

The news that Ohio Senator JD Vance has been chosen as Donald Trump’s Vice Presidential running mate is a clear sign that no matter what Trump said about “unity”, it is not going to happen.

More about Vance tomorrow!

RFK Jr Brain Worm Revelation, Added To Everything Else, Disqualifies Him!

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr is disgracing the reputation of his extended family, and is clearly delusional in saying, as he did on MSNBC with Ari Melber last night, that he can win the Presidency.

The revelation of a brain worm years ago, and other health and lifestyle issues, and added to his crazy conspiracy theories, and anti vaccine looniness, makes him totally unqualified for the Presidency.

So far, he is only on a few state ballots, but insists he will be on all 50 states and DC ballots.

He was very argumentative and irrational with Ari Melber, demonstrating he cannot control his behavior, making him just as dangerous or possibly more so than Donald Trump.

He also acts as if he is “young”, when he is 70 years old, and has never held public office, in common with Donald Trump before 2016.

The gall of this unstable man, to think he is qualified, and that he will be the first independent candidate who can win, when even Theodore Roosevelt only won 6 states and 88 electoral votes in 1912 after having been President for 7.5 years, is beyond belief and credulity.

78 Felony Charges Against Donald Trump And Counting, And Still Defenders!

The number of felony charges against Donald Trump has mounted to 78, and there are more such charges to come in Georgia in the next week or two.

The now thrice indicted, twice impeached, loser in the popular vote twice, his party constantly losing ever since he became President through Russian collusion in 2016, is still being defended and supported by a majority of Republican voters in public opinion polls.

Republicans who condemned him at the time of the January 6 Insurrrection on the US Capitol in most cases now swear support for him, and attack American democracy!

The judge in this case, Tanya Chutkan, has made it clear through other cases that she will take a hard line on Trump, as with other Insurrectionists on January 6, all to the good!

It is urgent that this trial, the most important one of the three, soon to be four cases, be televised live, so that there can be no conspiracy theories about “hiding” facts and details!

And it needs to take place BEFORE the Presidential Election of 2024!

RFK Jr An Embarrassment To His Family, And A Detriment To America!

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, who is challenging President Joe Biden for the Democratic Presidential nomination, is nothing like his father or his uncle!

He is an embarrassment to his own siblings, his mother, and other Kennedy relatives with his lunatic conspiracy theories on medical matters, and his attack on a great American medical figure, now retired Dr. Anthony Fauci, who was honored by seven Presidents from Ronald Reagan to Joe Biden!

He is a detriment to America, as he works to attempt to weaken a President who has the best domestic record since Lyndon B. Johnson in the 1960s, and who has made major successes in foreign policy!

RFK Jr consorts with right wing fanatics and Trump supporters, and has had a very unstable emotional life, and is only gaining about 20 percent in polls due to his name, as clearly some morons out there think he is his father! 🙁

He will NOT stop Joe Biden, but he will undermine Democratic party values, including those of his father and his uncle, and if he had any scruples, he would stop his campaign, and go back into the woodwork where he belongs! 🙁

The Attack On Science, Medicine, History, Literature, The Arts, And Knowledge Overall!

America is in a “knowledge” crisis as right wing and Republican attacks on so many fields of truth and information are being mounted by those who want to promote an extremist agenda!

These fields of knowledge include Science, Medicine, History, Literature, and the Arts.

Religion is prevailing over these fields of knowledge, as extremists in every religion are denying scientific facts, and threatening the medical profession, with the promotion of conspiracy theories and myths regarding how to deal with health crises, such as the COVID 19 Pandemic, which killed more than one million Americans in the past three years.

History and Literature are being attacked by right wing elements, including ignorant and biased parents, as well as religious propagandists, wanting the future generation to be “protected” from the reality of racism, nativism, misogyny, antisemitism, Islamophobia, and homophobia!

So teachers and librarians are being told to promote book bans and knowledge bans, because supposedly children cannot be exposed to unpleasant realities, a guarantee of ignorance and inability to face the future of a society that is not just dominated by white Christians. but rather by a multi ethnic, multi racial, multi religious nation!

The arts are also under attack as crazies want to ban art, sculpture, music, and other forms of culture based on narrow minded moral censors who want religion to dominate a nation that is based on separation of church and state!

Tucker Carlson Gone From Fox News Channel: Good Riddance!

A literal nightmare has come to an end, with the decision of Fox News Channel to part ways with the most watched cable show host, Tucker Carlson.

Carlson should be held legally responsible and prosecuted for his lies about the January 6, 2021 US Capitol Insurrection, and his own promotion over the years of racism, nativism, misogyny, Islamophobia, Antisemitism, homophobia, and support of Fascism authoritarianism and autocratic dictators around the world, including Vladimir Putin. He has also promoted conspiracy theories about the COVID 19 Pandemic.

Carlson lied incessantly, and it was revealed that he despised Donald Trump, and yet continued to embrace the “Big Lie” about the election of Joe Biden in 2020, that the election was stolen.

Carlson is a very evil, vain excuse for a human being, and it could be argued since he was on Cable that he was even more dangerous and divisive than the leading radio talk show host, the late and despicable Rush Limbaugh!

If there is justice, he should be sued for his wealth, and incarcerated for a prison term for the rest of his life, as he provoked violence, bloodshed, and hatred at an obscene level!

If there was justice, he would never have his voice heard again on radio or cable, but sadly, he is likely to find a new home at another right wing cable channel, or will set up a podcast.

Or he might seek public office, spreading his venomous poison, but all efforts to prevent him gaining a new power position must be pursued!

There are no virtues to Tucker Carlson, and anyone who would defend his disgusting behavior should be vilified and be spurned in society!

And this event should start the process of ridding the nation of hateful political leaders who have no conscience and only wish to divide the nation!

And Fox News Channel has other hateful cable talk show hosts, and faces further legal challenges regarding its promotion of lies about the Presidential Election Of 2020, leading to the January 6, 2021 Insurrection.

Donald Trump Speech In Waco, Texas A Provocation, And Should Be Canceled!

Donald Trump is about to give a provocative speech in Waco, Texas, on Saturday night, around the anniversary of the right wing tragedy of thirty years ago, when federal agents engaged with the followers of the lunatic David Koresh and his Branch Davidian Cult.

This tragic event in 1993 led to right wing extremist Timothy McVeigh to plot to blow up the Oklahoma City federal building in 1995.

Waco is a touchstone for the Far Right, and portends the promotion of violence by groups like the Proud Boys and the Oathkeepers.

Conspiracy theorists, and those who preach that Donald Trump is the word of God coming to save the nation and its future, causes great concern about security and safety.

The incitement of violence and bloodshed by Trump is, sadly, a sign of further troubles ahead, and the speech should be canceled as a “Clear and Present Danger”, under the Schenck V US case of 1919.
