PBS NewsHour Weekend full episode June 22, 2019



If we can't trust the government to let us know what we are eating, why do we need the FDA?  Eating food is not supposed to be a crap shoot, where we have to wait years to find out if what we were eating was safe.  Remember aspertain and all those other additives that had to be pulled off the market after several years of sales to the public?  The idea of having an FDA is so that we could decide for ourselves what risk we are , willing to take with our health.  Now the FDA is becoming a mere con job, telling us everything is okay when they haven't a clue.

It's a prolonged "drip by drip" chinese water torture form of terrorism.  He's merely keeping these people living under an ever changing threat.

One cannot help but wonder if the smaller government and deregulation planks in a political party platform, may have had anything to do or contribute in these disasters.  Could the regulators have shed their experts and experienced people and/or been otherwise impacted in ways too subtle to be noticed very soon? 

911 Dr Judy Wood Where did the Towers go

At 47:27, watch very carefully, roll it back and watch it several times, what you are going to see is completely amazing.  The core columns to the left of the tallest spires, watch them with care, you are going to see them burst into dust without falling.  Finally confirming Dr. Judy Woods claims of "Dustification".

We Don't Need Another 'John Bolton War,' Says Congressman | Morning Joe ...

Tat "lock her up" chant makes a fool of anyone foolish enough to recite it.  It's so very old and inconsequential, because after 2 years in office Trump has only managed to get his own staff locked up.  Even with the entire Republican party pulling to try and cover up Trumps criminal enterprise, he's still on the ropes and those who have worked for him are headed for prison because they followed his orders.  Some President eh?

This is part of the full show just posted, but since that can go away, I also post the clips that MSNBC posts.

FULL The Rachel Maddow Show 6/20/19 | The Rachel MSNBC Today June 20, 2019

I think Nadler is setting these attorney's up for charges of obstructing government administration or processes.  Their objections are without any legal basis, as such they are merely interfering with Congressional oversight processes.

On the other hand, if I make a joke about people robbing a bank and giving me the money,  I  don't take a meeting with the bank robbers,  either before, during or after the bank has been robbed.  So, after Trump made his little joke,  his people race to take a meeting with the Russians, on the basis that they have some dirt on Hillary they want to hand over.  Some joke eh?  Oh yeah, Bonnie and Clyde were only joking, eh?



President Donald Trump's Loyalty Uncertain Among Some National Security ...

All he needs is one more term and he will destroy the republic, America will become a third world nation and all the wealth will be lost.

Trump has run out of qualified people, now all he has are hacks.

Mitch McConnell: Obama elected to make up for 'sin of slavery'

Lots of excuses Mitch, but none of them are anything new, nor were those rectifiers you mention, things that you did not fight against.  Gay rights passed?  Really Mitch? With your help?  Are you insane? Have you taken leave of your senses?  Because you do not gaslight anyone who isn't a racist bigot already.  Anyway, the point about reparations is not that it's to be done by people who were alive then, it's to correct the historical record.  Until they are paid the legacy of the nation carries this stain forward on every page of it's history.  Your place in history  Mitch will be in the dust bin.

Hahaha,; "Hey, stop kicking me under the table, I'm trying to talk about where Mary's husband was yesterday!" Hahaha.

Now we know what Trump will do if he loses the election. He will claim that he actually won and that the election board was partisan and the electoral college was corrupt and actually voted for him.  He will declare martial law and refuse to leave office while trying to battle it out in court. In short, he will have to be dragged, kicking and screaming from office.

Donald Trump Flips Out Over NYT Report On New US Aggression With Russia ...

I guess Trump is freaked out because this threatens his dreams of Trump Tower Moscow, funded by Russia.  Of course, he isn't going to keep American secrets from Putin, he has already turned over U.S. intelligence and he'll probably do it again.  Meanwhile there's no telling what Barr will declassify and release to the public, so the entire intelligence world is on edge and it's very difficult to trust America under these circumstances.

President Donald Trump's Loyalty Uncertain Among Some National Security ...

When Republicans heard Trump remark "Russia if you're listening..." those with the knowledge of the law would have rushed, en mass, to flood the channel with advice about the law.  Because a Trump win was in the interest of the entire Republican party, all of it's energies and knowledge would have  been focused on keeping his campaign on track.  That's the way campaigns work, anyone who has ever worked on a campaign knows that there are more people interested and invested in the win, such that advice against any pitfall will come in a flood from all sides and levels.  There is no way Trump and the campaign could not have known that what they were doing with the Russians was illegal,  which is why they all lied about it.  They felt certain that someone would have discovered the advice they had been receiving.

Impeachment: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

There's plenty of time to impeach if need be, to minimise the risks of failure why not wait until time is running out, rather than go to it, before we've exhausted all efforts.

Trump asks Mulvaney to leave ABC interview for coughing

If Trump is into "water sports", he would know what a doctor has told me, urine is sterile.  I'm sure Putin knows this because, Putin has to know the facts if he's to succeed in subversion tactics effectively.

SHOCK! Cummings CLAIMS Conway Will be HANDCUFF After She Has so Egregiou...

Pelosi is not saying these facts are not enough, what she's saying is that we should not embark on a dangerous mission before we have prepared the battlefield properly.  Impeachment is not a legal device,A  it is a political affair.  As a legal device facts would be enough.  As a political affair, the parties must be persuaded that it is in their best interest to act.  Thus, if you move ineffectively, you not only lose the affair but you may also undo yourselves, since your failure to accomplish your objective can be seriously used against you.  With this President that would only make matters even worse.  We cannot survive anther Trump term.  

Don Lemon: In this White House, anything goes

America has been very seriously damaged. The Republicans have done nothing to help restore our system of checks and balances,  apparently thinking they could get their own way, and the rest of the world be damned. Probably because of our superior military power.  But, what they don't see is that, you can't force the world to willingly work with us.  You can't use military might to get them to continue to accept our debt instruments and hold onto the ones they have already bought.  Abject stupidity and lust for power has finally destroyed America, it's all over but for the shouting.



There is still time to slow and possibly reverse the decay of our financial/economic leadership, but that will required a strong demonstration that we recognize what we've done and we issue a resounding repudiation of it.  That requires Republican assistance we seem to be unlikely to get. ,   enjoy the America you have while you can, it's going to be all down hill from here if we can't show the world that we've come to our senses.

How does a known liar get the press to take what he says seriously?  I don't get it.
