Yesterday's most ignored headline was that our horse faced, horses ass of a Secretary of State had given Russia what amounted to an ultimatum demanding that all offensive operations against anti Assad forces i.e. ISIS, in Aleppo be halted immediately or all cooperation between the US and Russia would stop.
Never mind the arrogance of such a statement, I would like for these bungling fools to tell us just one thing in Aleppo or all of Syria for that matter, that is worth creating a direct military confrontation between the US and Russia. A confrontation that could well drag us and Europe into another world war.
And no I won't accept any BS answers about how brutal the Assad regime is or how the assault constitutes s humanitarian crisis. In both cases I would respond, so what? The Assads have ruled Syria with an iron fist for half a century. And if we're so worried about a body count in Aleppo why aren't we worried about the body counts in Chicago or Baltimore or our own nations capital? Seems to me this is the same Bashier Assad that old horse face and the Democrats were declaring to be a "great reformer" just a few short years ago when they thought such declarations could be used as a political bludgeon against both the Bush administration and Israel.
Unless of course, as the old saying goes, nothing occurs in a vacuum. Donald Trump strongly hinted that the FED has created yet another massive bubble in the markets and their about to burst. It's not a matter of if they pop but when. And when they do somebody is going to get blamed for it.
Rather than taking responsibility for their own incompetence and greed in propping up any already failed system they are going to try and lay the blame on the Russians for creating a military crisis that we will be told is more than the system can take. If millions have to die in order for them to keep their grip on power there don't care.
Donald Trump has represented an existential threat to their power structure since the day he announced his candidacy. That but sides of our own party state have be arrayed against him should be all the proof you need. If not just look at the cozy relationship between Bush the elder and Blowjob Bill Clinton and now the recent picture of Bush the younger cuddling together, all smiles and hugs for a selfie with Michelle Obama.
Our system has been irredeemably corrupted. The vaunted FBI and the Attorney General sell their souls to the Clintons for God only knows what and then they keep telling more and more lies as each batch of past lies gets exposed for the massive frauds that they are.
Is Donald Trump the savior of the Republic, some Cincinnatus come to rescue us from our own folly? Frankly I doubt it. But if he can at least prevent a war between Russia and the West that like almost all wars would spin out of control into a maelstrom of horror and death I'm all for it. Better destroyed markets and liquidated unpayable debts than destroyed cities nations and peoples. Better the blame for those destroyed markets, banks and debts fall on the heads of the bankers and manipulators that created the problems than bombs fall on to cities and civilians.
The URL of this blog comes from a no longer published newspaper from my old home town in Massachusetts. "The Evening Chronicle" was owned and published by an old family friend and long time leader of the Republican Party from the Roosevelt Administration through the Eisenhower Administration, Joseph W. Martin Jr. I hope you all enjoy what you find here.

Post Script to AP Story.
AP has since revised their story correcting the race of the officer involved. But they still do not mention his new or family history. This still does not change the disparaging nature of the article in which Charlotte's major crime is portrayed as simply being a growing prosperous city that is inherently part of the old south.
One can only hope that such hate filled yellow journalism will securely lock North Carolina in Donald Trump's column.
One can only hope that such hate filled yellow journalism will securely lock North Carolina in Donald Trump's column.
The AP Lies Again and Again.
The AP just published a story (a story is what it is as it contains so few facts) titled " Black community sees Charlotte as glimmering, fake Oz".
When the authors of such a story put out a absolute lie about an important fact of the recent events, there is little reason to regard the entire story as anything more than a hit piece.
This deceitful piece openly claims that Keith Lamont Scott was shot by a WHITE police officer. That is a bald faced lie! It has been well documented from the very beginning that the officer was himself black. It's very telling that the AP couldn't be bothered to use his name. Brently Vinson is a two year veteran of the CMPD and the son of another veteran officer.
I am not here to address the merits or lack of them in CMPD's tactics in pursuing criminal investigations. Yes the living conditions of much of Charlotte's black community are less than ideal. But they are far from the fetid sewers of run down tenements and row houses of Baltimore, East Cleveland or South Chicago.
Have there been some tragic incidents in Charlotte? Yes. The case of Jonathan Ferrell and officer Randall Kerrick is the most recent. Much like this case there was a great deal of pressure applied to "release the tape" of the incident. So confident was the city attorney that Kerrick would be found guilty that the City gave Ferrell's family a multi million dollar settlement on a wrongfully death suit even before Kerrick 's trial began. Then came the trial and the tape was released and it showed Ferrell charging headlong at officer Kerrick while he and other yelled at him to stop and get on the ground.
So where do the rest of the citizens go to get their millions of dollars back?
The video released by Scott's wife clearly shows several things. One the officers are heard yelling repeatedly to Scott to "drop the gun....drop the fucking gun!" Two Ms. ,Scott makes a liar of herself by first claiming her husband had no weapon and the pleading with him "don't you do it, do it."
Seems pretty clear she knew he was carrying a weapon, she also knew as a convicted violent felon he shouldn't have been in possession of a fire arm. So did Scott after making the mistake of showing the police he had a weapon decide that he didn't want to go back to prison for another long stretch and considered "suicide by cop" was preferable? If Scott had suffered a traumatic brain injury as his wife claims and wasn't thinking clearly then why did this wife let him go about carrying a gun?
This was a man with a long string of violent offences all springing from poor impulse control. Apparently made another in a long string of bad decisions and this one proved fatal. That is hardly the fault of officer Vinson or the socio-economic condition in Charlotte.
Tragically maybe Mr. Scott wasn't thinking clearly, but the AP knows perfectly well that they are lying through their teeth. If they want to write a story about conditions in the black community fine. There is plenty to be said but to tar all of Charlotte as racist and or redneck and collectively guilty for Keith Lamont Scott's death and use naked lies to do it is pretty despicable.

So Now They're Tearing Up Uptown Charlotte.
So now my home town gets to experience the black community's lack of self control, and ready desire to take any excuse for violence and open criminal behavior.
City government in Charlotte has long been dominated by Democrats. City council is majority black. The last two chiefs are black. Two of the last three mayors were black. Compared to may other cities race relations have been relatively benign.
Charlotte politicians have clamored for years about making Charlotte a "world class city". Well congrats you have arrived.

Another Unconsidered Possibility.
There has been much speculation of late about the small size of the crowds seen at some of Hillary's events. The first conclusion put forth is that there is a distinct lack of enthusiasm for Hillary's candidacy. But I think there may be something else going on.
She faced with large crowds and or spontaneous events Hillary has had some embarrassing moments of freezing and spastic reactions. Perhaps her staff is controlling the size of the events to minimize the possibility of any repetition of these events. Just my two cents worth but I think if there were any new occurrences caught on tape and the damage could be come unrecoverable.

Who Will They Blame This Time?
Hillary emerged from the forward cabin of her campaign's jet to speak with the press cloistered in the back. She looked haggered sleep deprived and depressed. Her statement was so lacking in substance as to be not just pathetic but completely worthless.
I have no doubt that she and her staff had spent the previous hours trying to figure out how they could somehow blame Trump and the Republicans for the day's events. If what she said was an attempt to look "Presidentual" she failed, miserably.
I'm also sure she realized that these bombs could not have hurt her prospects going forward any more if they had been planted directly on her plane. She might want to check if large doses of Prozac will interfere with all her other meds. Does it come in an IV drip?

New Lies Stacked On Top Of Old Lies. More Lies To Follow.
Where are the questions, never mind the answers, to the contradictions of Hillary's campaign releasing a statement of Friday saying there were no health issues and then after Sundays incident release one saying she was diagnosed on Friday with pneumonia? What kind of person diagnosed with a communicable disease on Friday goes to a fundraiser on Saturday and a public event on Sunday and huggs and kisses people without concern for their health?
Someone who doesn't really have pneumonia that's who. Yes pneumonia can create a state of physical exhaustion, but it's not a state from which you recover in two hours. Yes it can make you cough and get laryngitis but neither of those are conditions that comes and go every other day. Along with a true diagnosis of laryngitis comes instructions from any competent physician to not talk above a whisper or not at all for seversl days.
Hillary has a medical condition alright, but it sure as hell isn't pneumonia.

Bernie Goldberg And Perpetuating The Great Con Game.
I once again I can get no more than three or four paragraphs into Bernie's scribblings without my blood pressure going up.
The simple fact is the next President is going to be either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump. Any fantasies about the Libertarian ticket are just that, fantasies. Bernie Goldberg knows perfectly well how malevolently corrupt the Clintons are. So I'd like to know just who's interests does he think he is serving by consistently labeling Donald Trump a buffoon? I'd like him to list specifically what is buffoonish about Mr. Trump's clearly and repeatedly stated intent of making American national and individual interests first and foremost in the establishment of policy and treaty negotiation.
Bernie Goldberg is not a stupid man. He cannot possibly or credibly deny at this point that any actions that serve to diminish Donald Trump's prospects concurrently increases Hillary Clinton's. So then I am forced to answer my own question, with another question. How can anyone rationally conclude the Bernie's Goldberg is something other than a mouthpiece for the very same neocon, NWO, establishment con game represented by the Clintons and the Bushes?
Goldberg's conclusion in his latest column, that the country will survive whoever wins the election isn't just a lie, it is naked deceit that can only serve the purposes of these same elitists who regard nation states as their personal playthings and the rest of as pawns to be moved around at best and completely ignored except as we can be manipulated into the service of the one side or the other of the false left vs. right paradigm.
Tell us Bernie just how does the Republic survive the destruction of the 2nd Amendment if not the entire Bill of Rights?
Bernie of course makes the nearly perfect cover operative for the globalist game that Trump's candidacy threatens to derail. The "disillusioned" former left wing journalist who now plays the "enlightened conservative" while continuing to shill for the same globalist, NWO, corporatist interests he always has.
Well Bernie you might be able to pull the wool over the eyes of people like Bill O'Reilly. You might even get your former cohorts to raise a stink about this column or that column, perpetuating the great con game. But people are opening their eyes like never before and their not buying your bull squat.

An Interesting Twist.
Perhaps instead of asking Hillary and her PR trolls about her seemingly endless lies about Libya/Benghazi, her email scandal or how many communication devices she used, it might be just as, if not more useful, to as her to name something she has actually been docmentably truthful about concerning any of those subjects.
I'd bet that she would freeze like a dear in the headlights and then stutter and babble like a drunk in a stupor. She lies so much by force of habit that I honestly don't think she knows what truth is on these or any other subjects.

The FBI Data Dump And The Unconsidered Questions.
The FBI summary of their interview with Hillary Clinton certainly raises more questions than it answers. Her persistant use of "I can't recall...I don't remember" makes her look like a mafia Don testifying at a racketeering trial. Her first priority clearly was to try to avoid criminal indictment.
But as I often do, I wonder if there are questions that are not just not being asked but not even being considered. The dropping of this summary on a Friday before a long holiday weekend adds to the suspicion that Director Comey is either corrupt, has been bought off or has been threatened.
That brings me to my first unconsidered question. Is Director Comey being more clever than anyone suspects? What if he deliberately did not reccomend prosecution because if he did then the Democrats would have been forced to nominate a real and actually viable candidate.
Any threats or intimidations from the Arkansas mafia aside, it's been pretty much a given for some time that Judicial Watch, WikiLeaks etc. are fully armed with truck loads of dirt on the DNC and the Clintons and that they were going to unload it at the most appropriately embarrassing moments.
The FBI release of their summary report on Friday seems to fit into this scenario and rather than being an attempt to bury its damaging nature, merely gives the Clinton's enemies time to fully digest and analyze it and then come out Tuesday with full broadside attacks. WikiLeaks hasn't even started in on the Clinton's directly.
Then comes another unconsidered question. Is Hillary deliberately sabotaging her own campaign? With it now being some 275 days since her last real press conference and her deliberate skirting of any direct questions from the media, the level of arrogance must be getting under the skin of some of the field journalists covering her campaign. Yesterday's pronouncement by her campaign staff that she will not hold a press conference unless and until she wins the election seems calculated to just piss people off. It is clearly reminiscent of Nancy Peloci saying about Obama care that "You have to pass the bill I'm order to see what's in it." So the question is, given that under existing campaign law that allows any monies raised and not spent to be converted into personal income after the campaign, and given how avaricious the Clintons are, are they just grabbing money with both fists, sabotaging the campaign and planning to walk away with their pockets full?
