Agelbert NOTE: The Trump Fascist Demagogue Mens Rea Modis Operandi  is in full display in the video. The difference back in 'Patriotic America First' 1939 is that the group to be demonized was the Jewish people. Trump demonizes brown and black people, to the delight of all the white SUCKERS in this country that fall for his CRAP.



NIGHT AT THE GARDEN (Dir. Marshall Curry) VIDEO

In 1939, 20,000 Americans rallied in New York’s Madison Square Garden to celebrate the rise of Nazism – an event largely forgotten from American history. A NIGHT AT THE GARDEN uses striking archival fragments recorded that night to transport modern audiences into this gathering and shine a light on the disturbing fallibility of seemingly decent people.

The real reason Robert Mueller hasn’t arrested Jeff Sessions (yet)

Bill Palmer

Updated: 3:35 am EDT Fri Nov 3, 2017

As the first arrests and guilty plea in Donald Trump’s Russia scandal have sent the various Trump-Russia players into a dither this week, an unmistakeable pattern has emerged. The Trump team is now making abundantly clear that Jeff Sessions was well aware of various Trump campaign meetings and conspiracies with the Russian government. This proves Sessions was lying when he claimed otherwise under oath. Suddenly it’s become easy for Robert Mueller to indict and arrest Jeff Sessions. Too easy.

On Monday, the formal confession from Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos was made public. He alleged that several Trump campaign officials, including Jeff Sessions, were aware in advance of his plot to conspire with the Russian government to alter the outcome of the election. On Thursday, Trump campaign adviser Carter Page testified before Congress that Sessions knew in advance about his trip to Moscow during the campaign.

The Page news prompted respected law professor Richard Painter to tweet “The fix is in. They set up Sessions to take the fall. After he is gone, a new acting AG fires Mueller.” I’ve come to suspect that Painter may indeed be correct about this, as he often is. I also don’t believe that such a plot will succeed. Trump can’t fire Mueller without firing Sessions and Rod Rosenstein first. Too many Senate Republicans are old friends with Sessions, and they don’t want him fired for personal reasons. Many of the Senate Republicans also don’t want Mueller fired, because they don’t want the public blowback of that firing to land on them heading into the midterms.

Donald Trump and his team may indeed be serving up Jeff Sessions as bait, in the hope that Robert Mueller will eagerly bust him. But Mueller knows that if he slaps handcuffs on Sessions, then Trump truly will have an excuse to fire Sessions. Even the Republican Senate wouldn’t be able to justify having a sitting Attorney General who’s in jail or under house arrest.

For that reason, Mueller has every strategic reason not to arrest Sessions – at least not yet. For all we know, Mueller may already have a sealed indictment against Sessions in hand. But if Mueller unseals it now, it may swiftly lead to his own firing. Considering what’s at stake, Mueller has a right – and even a responsibly – to keep himself from getting fired so he can see justice through all the way to the end.

Robert Mueller could arrest Jeff Sessions at any time for the crime of having lied under oath to the Senate back in January. But this was true even before Trump’s advisers began fingering Sessions. There’s a reason Mueller hasn’t arrested Sessions yet. He’ll use other avenues to get to Donald Trump, and once it’s reached the point of no return where Trump is going down one way or the other, then he can bring Sessions to justice as well. In fact, if and when Mueller does arrest Sessions, it’ll be a sign that he already has Trump nailed.

Donald Trump’s Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross is in deep trouble after arrest of Paul Manafort

Bill Palmer

Updated: 3:28 pm EDT Fri Nov 3, 2017

SNIPPET:

Earlier this year it became clear that Donald Trump’s campaign chairman Paul Manafort was laundering Russian money through Bank of Cyprus, and it appeared that Trump himself might have been doing the same. This led to the inevitable question, which at the time had no answer: what did this have to do with Trump’s decision to nominate Bank of Cyprus vice chairman Wilbur Ross as his Secretary of Commerce? Now we’re finally getting to the Wilbur Ross stage of the Trump-Russia investigation.

Anthony,

Last week, we ran an ad on Fox & Friends calling for the impeachment of Donald Trump.

The president, unsurprisingly, was none too happy about it -- and his friends at Fox News heard the message loud and clear. Without warning, our ad was pulled off the air in blatant act of censorship.  >:(

Fox News violated our First Amendment rights in an effort to appease their #1 fan -- a volatile, thin-skinned President Trump. That's why we've brought in Bernie Sanders' lawyer, Brad Deutsch. He's joining the fight against Donald Trump and is helping to defend our right to freedom of speech.

A plurality of Americans favor impeachment. Our impeachment campaign has clearly struck a nerve with the president and is gaining more momentum by the day. Please share our video and keep up the pressure on Congress.

Share!

The time to impeach is now.   

Thanks,

Tom Steyer

Paradise Papers Reveal Tax Evasion & Shady Dealings by Nike, Apple, Queen of England & Trump Cabinet


Democracy Now!

Published on Nov 6, 2017

https://democracynow.org - A slew of 13.4 million leaked documents revealed how the world’s richest men stash away billions of dollars in wealth in offshore tax havens. The revelations, known as the Paradise Papers, implicate more than a dozen of President Trump’s Cabinet members, advisers and major donors. We continue our conversation with Frederik Obermaier, co-author of the Paradise Papers. He is an investigative reporter at Germany’s leading newspaper, Süddeutsche Zeitung. Obermaier also worked on a separate investigation, the Panama Papers, and is co-author of the book “Panama Papers: The Story of a Worldwide Revelation.”

Agelbert NOTE:  This is not surprising to those of us in the reality based community. However, these predatory psychopaths do not like this sort of thing to come out. It's bad for business .

After all, it's kinda hard to demonize all those brown and black people out there (when you aren't suckering low and middle class whitey to pay for bombing and shooting them in convenient wars) for being "irresponsible, corrupt, thieving low life crooks and liars" (and so on, you get the idea) when the elite in our society are guilty of far more egregious crimes on a continual mens rea modus operandi/modus vivendi basis.

I mean, From the Queen of England to the Fossil Fuel industry TOOLS, Trump and his wrecking crew, these WORLD CLASS CRIMINAL CROOKS AND LIARS make the other 99% of humanity look like saints!

These psychopaths know that they must make some appearance of "doing the right thing"    or they will no longer have the Consent of the Governed, so to speak.   


These bastards have not forgotten the French Revolution.


BUT, since the evil bastards are still running most governments (i.e. they have carefully placed themselves above the law ), they will now cut their losses, so to speak, and throw we-the-people some bones to chew on by throwing the less influential among these predatoy psychopaths off the proft over planet bus and into prison (see below).

The Future of several members of the Trump Wrecking Crew:
But, but, Trump said he loved me and would support me always...

The PRESENT of several members of the Trump Wrecking Crew, INCLUDING TRUMP:

He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. Matt 10:37

John Nichols: Horsemen of the Trumpocalypse


Ed Mays

Published on Sep 14, 2017

Whose hands are really on the levers of power in President Trump’s administration? The Nation’s John Nichols returns to our stages for an in-depth examination with his new book: Horsemen of the Trumpocalypse: A Field Guide to the Most Dangerous People in America. Nichols asserts that Trump has assembled a collection of “white nationalists, alt-right hatemongers, voter-suppression schemers, immigrant bashers, and climate-change deniers” to run the American government…and it’s up to us to challenge their excesses.
Having covered many of these political figures for decades, Nichols offers would-be resisters a clear-eyed look at Trump’s inner circle.
