      Three alpha poses and Bill’s wtf? It is easy to see who is the top dog, the alphas’ Alpha from the men’s poses. PBO, leaning forward, chest out, fingers uncurled, one leg slightly forward. Guys do these poses without even thinking about it. Their body language tells you all that you want to know about their place in the hierarchy of the pack.

    Have to post this because it so reflects my feelings:-) Nice to see even TX misses PBO as much as we do! So thrilled he got such incredible applause in this awful state.

      He just wants the press talking about things other than his mess ups and the JFK conspiracy theories have been rampant over the years. Talk of opening the files has gone on for years. There is lots of interest in it so it should make an excellent distraction. Hope the media keeps the pressure on the Russian investigations. In one way I would rather have the JFK files opened than have the Donald start WWIII as a distraction. I read where DJT signed an executive action to be able to recall retired military people having me thinking that matches with going to war. SCARY!

        That’s a great point. The media really needs to stop playing along with his distraction game. We need to focus on all the damage he is doing to this country — some of which cannot be repaired for decades to come.

    Good evening ohana. I’m confused by the event page on PBO’s FB. It says BO has raised $91,000 for Shrub’s library.

    Nerdy, thank you for posting the fundraiser.
    I can focus on the good and ignore the snarky and negative tonight and end my evening on a high note.

    The concert this evening was fabulous. I suspect that all the presidents traveled to College Station in part to honor Bush 41. PBO always has been fond of him. Lady Gaga left me speechless. She was incredible, and I appreciate her reminding us that there will be much PTSD in this country for years to come for all these victims. I’m glad her donation will be used for mental health. And what more can anyone say about PBO? I really struggled at the beginning when they were naming all those TX politician whom I absolutely despise (and muted it when they played DT video), but it made my heart sing when TX did PBO proud in its welcome for him. For anyone who missed it, in addition to YouTube C-Span has a couple of airings listed overnight. I intend to dvr it to watch again. It was particularly memorable to see these presidents come together on the day Sgt Johnson was laid to rest. Somehow this concert lessened that pain.

    Good night TOD. Thanks to each and everyone of you for being here.

      I could not watch after they started recognizing Cruz and Cheney, plus Not interested in country artists, many of whom are on NRA and GOP payroll. I only cared about the shots of PBO and was able to see some of them on Twitter and now here. All of the shouts of I/we love you and the joy with which PBO was received did my heart good. Lady Gaga was all of us.

      It’s so lovely that all five Presidents came out to support such a worthy cause. And they all appear to get along despite real political differences. Also nice that Souza covered this event.

    together with everything that has happened about Sgt. LaDavid Johnson’s death and subsequent attacks on his family and his mentor, Congresswoman Frederica Wilson there is an open omission that is being persuaded in the media=>

    some correct me if I am wrong about this but:

    – isn’t it a fact that the White House is the one that called reporters in Miami to be on hand to record and broadcast the arrival of Sgt. Johnson’s remains?
    – it was then organized that scumbag #45 call in at that very sensitive time for the Sgt’s family, who had invited the Congresswoman to join them in the car.

    – Didn’t these reporters then specifically ask the Congresswoman what scumbag #45 said and she answered their question with the truth?

    if these above are the facts, then it appears to me that the White House choosing that time in front of all the cameras was a deliberate effort to get for scumbag #45 during a live broad cast – another manipulation of the Sgt’s death to cover up for the homegrown demagogue earlier omissions and subsequent lies.

    now, when most of the media reports that part, many ignore the facts that:

    (a) the reporters were on site at the request of the ultimate manipulators from the White House – ignoring the very sensitive moment;

    (b) the Congresswoman didn’t seek out the press, the press sought her out;

    (c) by some of criticism of her repeating what was said is actually a demand for her to tell lies and once again try to make scumbag #45 look like a decent human being;

  44. October 22, 2017 at 1:15 pm

    This is why Rev. Al needs to be on tv. He gave a report this morning, about the manipulations of the GOP in North Carolina, and how, now that they aren’t getting rulings in their favor, are trying to change the rules of how judges are elected.

    NOBODY else is covering this.

    PoliticsNation with Al Sharpton 10/22/17
    Partisan Justice?

    Join Rev. Al Sharpton as he talks with Kristen Clarke and Rep. Marcia Morey,to discuss the importance of the 2018 midterm elections being rocked by discrimination.

    From the NYTimes:

    In North Carolina, Republicans Stung by Court Rulings Aim to Change the Judges
    By TRIP GABRIEL

    OCT. 18, 2017

    RALEIGH,N.C. — Republicans with a firm grip on the North Carolina legislature —and, until January, the governor’s seat — enacted a conservative agenda in recent years, only to have a steady stream of laws affecting voting and legislative power rejected by the courts.

    Now lawmakers have seized on a solution: change the makeup of the courts.

    Judges in state courts as of this year must identify their party affiliation on ballots, making North Carolina the first state in nearly a century to adopt partisan court elections. The General Assembly in Raleigh reduced the size of the state Court of Appeals, depriving Gov. Roy Cooper, a Democrat, of naming replacements for retiring Republicans.

    And this month, lawmakers drew new boundaries for judicial districts
    statewide, which critics say are meant to increase the number of Republican judges on district and superior courts and would force many African-Americans on the bench into runoffs against other incumbents.
