Good Morning!

imgres

There is nothing more to be said. Decisions are made. The only thing to do is exercise your right to vote and have your voice be heard. It’s really simple: Vote! You have no excuse not to!

Need help voting? Here’s 3 things you can do:

  1. Click here to find everything you need to vote: https://www.iwillvote.com/home/
  2. Visit Hillaryclinton.com to make a plan: https://www.hillaryclinton.com/
  3. or text “Plan” to 47246.

Update: Need a guide?

For a Voter’s Guide from the NY Times click here: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/08/us/politics/voting-guide.html Read and heed.

Remember you need your I.D. in many states to vote. If you don’t know whether your state requires your I.D. err in your favor, bring it anyway.

Getting hassled at the polls?

I am reposting this, which was originally posted by Social Butterfly:

Remember: VOTING IS YOUR RIGHT AS A CITIZEN

If an alleged ”poll watcher” tries to impede you at the voting booth:
1 – Tell him to kindly step out of the way
2 – Take his picture with a cell phone
3 – Call the FBI
FBI Civil Rights Division staff will be available by phone to receive complaints related to ballot access (202)307-2767 or toll-free at (800)253-3931.
U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division, Voting Section can be reached at (202) 307-2767 or toll-free at (800) 253-3931.

Readers: All I can say is in the words of President Obama, “I’m fired up!” And because I love our president and our fist lady so much let’s make sure that we give them a good send off by making sure Hillary wins with coattails! Dems down the ticket.

Get excited! Get fired up!

Need some inspiration? I think this should do:

 

From one nasty woman to so many others: Stand with Hillary in sartorial solidarity by putting on a white pantsuit or donning an all white outfit, and go vote. #WearWhiteToVote Let’s do this! Let’s make herstory!

Hillary: You go girl. #I’mWithYou. 💪🏽♀❤️ I can’t wait to call you “Madame President.”

Signing off. The forum is open. Please post your comments and polling experiences.

Blog me.

Thanks for being her with me – thanks for voting. xox

Tomorrow Is The Day To Do The Right Thing For Our Country

Posted by Michelle Moquin on 7th November 2016

Bookmark and Share

Good morning!

It’s a day before the election and at this point, I feel like probably many of you, the voters’ minds are made up over who they are going to vote for. I don’t foresee anyone changing their minds at this point but that doesn’t mean I can’t express mine.

I’ve done a lot of reading and thinking over these past months and my mind is full…actually it feels like it is in overload, overdrive, and overwhelm. It has been the most exhausting election to cover and it won’t be soon enough that I’m sipping on champagne welcoming in Hillary.

As much as I’m betting on her winning, I can’t help but be perplexed over those who for so long couldn’t decide nor see the difference between Trump and Clinton (What planet are they living on?) or be baffled still by those who are voting for Trump. The misogyny, the sexism, the racism, and lewd remarks that spew from his mouth…the predatory assaults on women, not to mention lies, lies, lies. I’ve had enough.

But evidently not everyone feels the way that I or many do. There are men and women still voting for this animal of a man. Men and women who have sons and daughters of their own. Republicans, who claim they are the moral compass of this nation, are voting for Trump. Paul Ryan comes to mind – he has two young sons and a daughter. Sick fuck.

What fucking morality allows a man to grab your daughter’s pussy?

Just what does a father think of his own daughter when he is voting for a man who grabs women by the pussy and thinks nothing of letting another man call his daughter a piece of ass? If Trump thinks of his own daughter as a piece of ass, just what does he think of your daughter? And yet mothers and fathers are still voting for this scumbag. What are they thinking? The logic escapes me.

And what does this say to the millionaire and billionaire men out there? If Trump can take what he wants because of who he is, what other men of his ilk will think and act the same? Hey, if it’s accepted from a presidential candidate, than it’s certainly OK for me too. And just what will he be able to do to women should he become president?  Fuck just the mils and bils, what sick things will go through the minds of any man when a predatory, sexist, LSOS, racist is our president? That thought is just too disturbing.

And the people who don’t think this is disturbing, or that this scum as our president won’t have a ripple effect in our society, all I can say is that is fucked up thinking. Any man who votes for Trump at worst is just looking for an excuse to pander to his misogyny, and at best has no respect for women. And any woman who votes for Trump has no self respect nor a respect for her sisters.

You’ll hear no apologies from me. In my mind there is no reason whatsoever any person should be casting their vote for this despicable display of a man.

Unfortunately, there are many men like Trump, so yes, you can bet their marking his name on the ballot. But women, let me end with this, if this mother fucker doesn’t lose in a landslide I have lost all respect for white women. You can go ahead and smile and say you’ll vote for him, but take your ass into the booth and vote for Hillary. And while you’re there, vote Dems down the line, because any man or woman that is supporting Trump should be voted out. 

Tomorrow is the day to do the right thing for our country…the only thing. Vote for Hillary. 

*****

Readers: Thoughts? Blog me.

Alycedale: Another thing we have in common. :)

Mike, TM: Happy to see you hear again. How are you? Thanks for your added info. After what we have learned about the FBI, and now the recent tweet by Snowden it is crystal clear Comey’s actions were meant to sway this election toward the republicans. I hope you’re doing good.

Uriel: I don’t usually address ignorant comments. But I felt compelled. You obviously have no idea what you’re talking about or you wouldn’t make such an ignorant statement, claiming Anonz is a self-serving bil. He is far from it. So Yes, I will love and support this billionaire till the day I die. He is the most wonderful man I have ever met. While most men are just talking mouths, Anonz backs what he says with action, risking his life everyday, thinking only of those he is defending and protecting, always putting their needs first, including his cadre.

Have you seen what the women here have written? They have experienced his love and kindness. We have heard chronicles from many for years of the good he does. Only a few will ever know the extent of such goodness that Anonz has done for this world.

So…now it shouldn’t be beyond you why I support this man.

As far as me “sucking up.” I don’t suck up to anyone. And I have never claimed to be for the little people. I’m for those who do the right thing, regardless of their wealth or lack thereof.

Caroline: Yes he is. Sorry, I know they are your friends, but it’s stupid white women that would vote for Trump just because of this shit that surfaced. Comey and the FBI set out to do something and they got away with it temporarily thanks to Anonz.

Happy Monday, Everyone. Thanks for being here with me. 

Peace & Love.

Some Good News For Standing Rock

Posted by Michelle Moquin on 6th November 2016

Bookmark and Share

Good morning!

From Common Dreams:

Turning Point at Standing Rock? Resistance and Renewed Hope Against Dakota Access

standing_rock

“Our elders,” said Tom Goldtooth, executive director of the Indigenous Environmental Network, “told us to focus on praying for the federal agencies and the US government and North Dakota to hear what we were doing and saying: we have to protect the sacredness of the water.” (Photo: Sarah van Gelder)

Is this the turning point for the Dakota Access Pipeline? Word spread through the camp on Friday of a discussion between the Army Corps of Engineers and the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe that could mean a breakthrough.

“This proves that our prayers are really strong from the Oceti Sakowin camp,” Tom Goldtooth, executive director of the Indigenous Environmental Network told me. “Our elders told us to focus on praying for the federal agencies and the US government and North Dakota to hear what we were doing and saying: we have to protect the sacredness of the water.”

The Standing Rock Sioux tribe [have been told] that no permit would be issued to drill the Dakota Access Pipeline under the Missouri River until 30 days after construction stops.

According to reports from the Indigenous Environmental Network, Colonel John W. Hendersonof the Corps promised the Standing Rock Sioux tribe that no permit would be issued to drill the Dakota Access Pipeline under the Missouri River until 30 days after construction stops. After that, there will be a comment period adequate to allow the tribes full consultation. This could delay pipeline construction under the river by 45 days to three months.

Even more good news for pipeline opponents. President Obama earlier this week commented that his administration would be looking at rerouting the pipeline. A new route would require a new environmental assessment, and this time, the tribes, and others, will insist on a full environmental impact statement – not the questionable environmental assessment used by the Army Corps when it issued the first permit.

Either move could scuttle financing for the pipeline, which depends on work being completed on a certain schedule.

There is no confirmation at this time from the Corps of Engineers nor from the Standing Rock Tribe that the 30-day buffer period will in fact go into effect. Still, there is a sense, now, that there is a possible pathway to a resolution of this months-old conflict.

Meanwhile, ceremony and building continue. A group of clergy came to Standing Rock on Thursday answering the call of Rev. John Floberg, supervising priest of the Episcopal churches. The clergy did a ceremonial burning of the Doctrine of Discovery – the doctrine that has been used as the legal justification for the taking of Native lands. Fourteen clergy were arrested when they went to Bismarck in an attempt to meet and pray with the governor.

And at camp, building and winterizing continue.

I asked Tom Goldtooth what would happen while the water protectors are waiting for a resolution of the permit question.

“What we’re doing now in the camp is responding to the question: How are we going to live through the winter season here. We’re asking our elders, and looking at our oral traditions that teach us how our ancestors survived the harsh winters of the prairie lands.”

There is a plan in the works to build a just transition village, some are calling it an ecovillage. Goldtooth talked of the abundant solar and wind potential in Indian Country, the need for a new economic foundation that end the addiction to oil, the need to use sustainable building materials, and food sovereignty.

“We’re building our power, embracing those original instructions and those teachings that our ancestors left for us that includes language revitalization, looking at where we are going in the next 50-100 years,” he said.

Plans include the building of an Earth Lodge and other sustainable structures. A new geodesic dome just went up in the last days at the Oceti Sakowin camp.

“Sitting Bull, spiritual leader of the Hunkpapa of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, said we should use the tools of the white man and also recognize who we are. I see that as part of the prophesy,” Goldtooth said. “The battle at Oceti Sakowin is deeper than the pipeline. It’s about how we are to redefine our leadership and how we rebuild community and how we love and have compassion for each other and Mother Earth and all the people who come to support — that’s what all this means.”

*****

Readers: Thank you, President Obama!

What’s on your mind?

Blog me. 

Oh, before I take off to enjoy my Sunday, I received a personal call from Anonz. He told me that he didn’t add in the “z” because he wanted to see if I knew it was him…if I recognized his input. I started laughing and told him, of course I did, but I didn’t say anything because I was waiting for his phone call. I see a few readers (That’s a nod to you Dziko, and Alycedale.) recognized his way of writing. Did anyone else recognize him?

During the conversation Anonz mentioned that he had suggested when Comey made the comment, that somebody should call attention to Comey’s violation of the Hatch Act. And by suggesting, he said he meant he wanted someone with the proper credentials to take a forceful stand against powerful government departments like the DOJ, the FBI, and national security agencies, from involving themselves in America’s political affairs, especially concerning running for the office of POTUS.  So he had pulled in a few favors from both sides of the political spectrum in order to get someone to take a stand.

I agree with Anonz because it is my belief too that the justice department, the FBI, and other agencies should stay out of the political arena.  These agencies have too much power when it comes to surveillance and the ability to charge someone with an crime. Those powers wield enormous influence upon a citizen’s choice. It is my belief that is the very purpose of the Hatch Act. It keeps powerful departments of government out of the political selection of those who would control those departments, the citizens we select as our representatives.

It seems someone took him up on it.

Happy Sunday!

Peace & Love

The Last Day For Early Voting Is Today

Posted by Michelle Moquin on 5th November 2016

Bookmark and Share

Good morning!

There is so much racism in this county it’s appalling. When will we become a planet that considers all of the people residing here as “world citizens? When will we come together as ONE?

It certainly isn’t going to be from a president such as Trump who follows the guidelines of a true republican whose MO (yes, another wretched MO) is to “divide and conquer.” It’s the only way the white race can stay in power because of their fear of  the growing population of OTWs, and “white genocide.” – What else do you think Trump’s campaign slogan “Make the world great again” is really saying?

From HeatStreet.com:

Harvard Students Demand Police Investigation of Pro-Trump Email Decrying ‘White Genocide’

Harvard University students are demanding a police investigation into an email circulated among undergraduates urging them prevent “white genocide” by voting for Donald Trump in November.

Some students, including a number of students in leadership positions on campus, received an email on Sunday with the subject line “Fight White Genocide – Vote Trump!”

The email warns that the United States is being overrun by “third-world non-Whites,” and argues that white people should stick together by advocating against diversity and voting for Trump, who is the only candidate who sympathizes with the white struggle.

College Dean Rakesh Khurana called on the Harvard University Police Department to conduct an official investigation into the email. The university does not appear to have received any reports of bias through its new “bias reporting system” as a result of the email.

Susan Wang, president of the Harvard Democrats, received the email but told the Harvard Crimson she was not personally offended and simply “brushed it under the rug.”

The pro-Trump, anti-white genocide message is unlikely to find many takers at Harvard, a liberal campus where even the Republican club has refused to endorse Trump and denounced his “vitriolic rhetoric.”

*****

Readers: In a Trump presidency, OTWs will be cast aside and we women will lose all we’ve gained,  not to mention the overturning of Roe v Wade. Trump and his kind only see women at best as an “accessory.”

Fuck that. I’m not going there. And it appears that many women are with me on this one because they are showing up in droves to vote for Hillary.  Let’s keep it going girls! Be a part of this historical movement and moment  - If you haven’t voted yet, The time is now. Let’s make Herstory!  Seriously, get off the couch, stop watching the damn news (I know It’s hard, I’m glued too) and cast your vote for the only qualified candidate - Hillary Clinton.

And guys, you’re a big part of this too.

“Guys have got about a week to wrap their heads around the fact that Hillary Clinton is going to be president of the United States,” Obama said.

 

Let’s continue with what we started 8 years ago with Obama. You can kiss all we’ve accomplished goodbye, and toss our country into the proverbial basket of shit if Trump gets to the white house.  Now why would we do that? #ImWithHer.

Thoughts? Blog me.

Update: Anon: That is some pretty revealing info that you posted. And quite appalling about this “pure 100″ in the FBI. I’m not surprised and certainly not about Rudy Guiliani considering how disgusting he has been in this election. Thank you for sharing.  I’m looking forward to seeing what more will come from this.

Peace out.

Flap Your Lips Friday

Good morning!

From the Guardian:

Highly unfavorable view of Hillary Clinton intensified after James Comey’s decision not to recommend an indictment over her use of a private email server

Deep antipathy to Hillary Clinton exists within the FBI, multiple bureau sources have told the Guardian, spurring a rapid series of leaks damaging to her campaign just days before the election.

Current and former FBI officials, none of whom were willing or cleared to speak on the record, have described a chaotic internal climate that resulted from outrage over director James Comey’s July decision not to recommend an indictment over Clinton’s maintenance of a private email server on which classified information transited.

“The FBI is Trumpland,” said one current agent.

This atmosphere raises major questions about how Comey and the bureau he is slated to run for the next seven years can work with Clinton should she win the White House.

The currently serving FBI agent said Clinton is “the antichrist personified to a large swath of FBI personnel,” and that “the reason why they’re leaking is they’re pro-Trump.”

The agent called the bureau “Trumplandia”, with some colleagues openly discussing voting for a GOP nominee who has garnered unprecedented condemnation from the party’s national security wing and who has pledged to jail Clinton if elected.

At the same time, other sources dispute the depth of support for Trump within the bureau, though they uniformly stated that Clinton is viewed highly unfavorably.

“There are lots of people who don’t think Trump is qualified, but also believe Clinton is corrupt. What you hear a lot is that it’s a bad choice, between an incompetent and a corrupt politician,” said a former FBI official.

Sources who disputed the depth of Trump’s internal support agreed that the FBI is now in parlous political territory. Justice department officials – another current target of FBI dissatisfaction – have said the bureau disregarded longstanding rules against perceived or actual electoral interference when Comey wrote to Congress to say it was reviewing newly discovered emails relating to Clinton’s personal server.

Comey’s vague letter to Congress, promptly leaked by Republican congressman Jason Chaffetz, said the bureau would evaluate communications – subsequently identified as coming from a device used by disgraced ex-congressman Anthony Weiner, whose estranged wife Huma Abedin is a Clinton aide – for connections to the Clinton server. Comey’s allies say he was placed in an impossible position after previously testifying to Congress it would take an extraordinary development for him to revisit the Clinton issue. Throughout the summer and fall, Trump has attacked the FBI as corrupt for not effectively ending Clinton’s political career.

A political firestorm erupted, with Comey and the bureau coming under withering criticism, including a rebuke on Wednesday from Barack Obama. Even some congressional Republicans, no friends to Clinton, have expressed discomfort with Comey’s last-minute insertion of the bureau into the election.

The relevance of the communications to the Clinton inquiry has yet to be established, as Comey issued his letter before obtaining a warrant to evaluate them. Clinton surrogates contend that Comey has issued innuendo rather than evidence, preventing them from mounting a public defense.

Some feel Comey needs to address the criticism and provide reassurance that the bureau, with its wide-ranging investigative and surveillance powers, will comport itself in an apolitical manner. Yet since Friday, Comey has maintained his silence, even as both Clinton and Trump have called for the bureau to disclose more of what it knows.

Leaks, however, have continued. Fox News reported on Wednesday that the FBI is intensifying an investigation into the Clinton Foundation over allegations – which both the foundation and the Clinton camp deny – it traded donations for access to Hillary Clinton when she was secretary of state. The Wall Street Journal reported that justice department officials considered the allegations flimsy.

The leaks have not exclusively cast aspersions on Clinton. Paul Manafort, Trump’s former campaign manager, is the subject of what is said to be a preliminary FBI inquiry into his business dealings in Russia. Manafort has denied any wrongdoing.

The Daily Beast reported on Thursday on ties between Trump surrogate Rudy Giuliani, the former New York mayor, and the FBI’s New York field office, which reportedly pressed the FBI to revisit the Clinton server investigation after beginning an inquiry into Weiner’s alleged sexual texting with a minor. The website reported that a former New York field office chief, highly critical of the non-indictment, runs a military charity that has received significant financial donations from Trump.

Comey’s decision to tell the public in July that he was effectively dropping the Clinton server issue angered some within the bureau, particularly given the background of tensions with the justice department over the Clinton issue. A significant complication is the appearance of a conflict of interest regarding Loretta Lynch, the attorney general, who met with Bill Clinton this summer ahead of Comey’s announcement, which she acknowledged had “cast a shadow” over the inquiry.

“Many FBI agents were upset at the director, not because he didn’t [recommend to] indict, but they believe he threw the FBI under the bus by taking the heat away from DoJ [Department of Justice],” the former bureau official said.

All this has compounded pressure on Comey, with little end in sight.

Jim Wedick, who retired from the bureau in 2004 after 35 years, said that if Clinton is elected, she and Comey would probably find a way to work together out of a sense of pragmatism. He recalled both his own occasional clashes with federal prosecutors and Bill Clinton’s uneasy relationship with his choice for FBI director, Louis Freeh.

“Each one will find a way to pick at the other. It’s not going to be good and it’s not going to be pretty. But they’ll both have to work with each other,” he said.

Senator Ron Wyden, an Oregon Democrat on the intelligence committee, said: “The continued leadership failures at the FBI are another reminder we can’t let intelligence agencies say ‘trust us’ and then give them a blank check to probe into Americans’ lives.

“While I’ve argued for years that Congress must create ironclad protections for Americans’ security and privacy, we also need vigilant oversight of agencies that have the power to deprive citizens of their liberty or change the course of an election.”

The FBI would not comment for this story.

*****

Readers: What we have here is another example of the lack of diversity in our government – the FBI is run by white men, and always has been. Just like we have a need for diversity in other areas of politics and our government, the need for more honesty, and more women and OTWs is needed in the FBI. This article proves the FBI is obviously biased and out to get Hillary, and sabotage her from winning the election.

It’s now clear that white men -  the FBI – pressured Comey to come out with his false story. He “lectured” Hillary about her “recklessness” but she was no more “reckless” than anyone else with her emails. Google it. If the head of the FBI can’t control his men then he shouldn’t be in the position he is holding. And it’s obvious that he can’t.

And…If the FBI are trying to sabotage a presidential candidate (!), who else have they framed or gone after? This is insane. We know they didn’t just start this with Hillary. We know that others must have fallen prey to their nasty tactics and schemes. Martin Luther King comes to mind – Who else?

Amazing how so many that oppose Hillary were shouting that the FBI was protecting Hillary by not prosecuting her for these emails. When it is truly the contrary.

Thoughts? It’s Friday…you know what to do.

Blog me.

Irene: Thank you. I hope many people feel the same way. We’re almost there.

By voting “yes,” this let’s them back in  the game. Sorry but I’m not buying it. Vote “No” on 61 & 65.

Peace out.
