Steve Thomas Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 On 1/14/2021 at 9:15 AM, Steve Thomas said: A Brief History of Donald J. Trump State Park By Eric Goldschein May 8, 2017 https://www.outsideonline.com/2181686/brief-history-donald-j-trump-state-park “Just 45 miles north of Trump Tower in New York City lies a dagger-shaped swath of land dominated by thick brush and brambles almost indistinguishable from other forested areas of upstate New York. It’s lush and green in summer, barren and brown in winter, dotted red and pink by occasional apple trees or dogwoods. There’s little unique or notable about it, except its name: Donald J. Trump State Park. Steve Thomas New York State Investigating Stripping Donald Trump’s Name From Parkland He Donated https://www.huffpost.com/entry/donald-trump-new-york-state-park-name_n_6014050ac5b63b0fb280138b 01/29/2021 “New York state’s parks commissioner is trying to figure out if the state is obligated to keep former President Donald Trump’s name on a 436-acre state park on land he donated in the New York City suburbs 14 years ago, after local opposition sunk his plans for a golf course.” “A Change.org petition asks to rename the park for Sojourner Truth, an icon of the abolitionist and women’s rights movements. There’s also a bill under consideration to rename the park for Heather Heyer, who died when a car struck counterprotesters at the “Unite the Right” white nationalist rally in Charlottesville in 2017.” Steve Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live from Tarrant County Convention Center in 1973 (not!), Fort Worth where I was born and saw them. My best to you on your retirement. I've now enjoyed 3 years and 3 months after retiring early at 62 (not my original choice, but health and other issues dictated). I've pretty much enjoyed every minute aside from the 4 years between 2017 and January 20th of this year. I haven't got to do a lot of the things I was hoping to do, but don't miss the 2080 hours (government speak for a year's work hours) wasted away from home and the people and things that I CAN do. Congratulations and I hope you get many years to enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Profile of January 5 Trump War Council Attendee Daniel Beck - Proof (substack.com) This is an important story. If Merrick Garland and Wray are really going to prosecute this case, this angle is key I think. Seth Abramson has done some really good work on this. And people are already denying they were there, except there are pictures of them being at the hotel. Whenever someone does that, like Shaw denying he was Bertrand, you make them a person of interest. I have also written about this. Will post it soon.

Thank's Bob, Richard, Paul and you. Congrat's to Paul as well from me. W. you might appreciate this. Heck you may own it.

Steve Thomas Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Jan. 6 Rally Funded by Top Trump Donor, Helped by Alex Jones, Organizers Say Wall St. Journal 01/30/2021 https://www.wsj.com/articles/jan-6-rally-funded-by-top-trump-donor-helped-by-alex-jones-organizers-say-11612012063 “The rally in Washington’s Ellipse that preceded the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol was arranged and funded by a small group including a top Trump campaign fundraiser and donor facilitated by far-right show host Alex Jones. Mr. Jones personally pledged more than $50,000 in seed money for a planned Jan. 6 event in exchange for a guaranteed “top speaking slot of his choice,” according to a funding document outlining a deal between his company and an early organizer for the event. Mr. Jones also helped arrange for Julie Jenkins Fancelli, a prominent donor to the Trump campaign and heiress to the Publix Super Markets Inc. chain, to commit about $300,000 through a top fundraising official for former President Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign, according to organizers. Her money paid for the lion’s share of the roughly $500,000 rally at the Ellipse where Mr. Trump spoke.” If Trump can be impeached for inciting the riot, why can't we arrest the people who paid for it?

As for Lauren Boebert, it's appalling that she would be elected to Congress from any district in the U.S. Rural counties in Colorado have always been staunchly Republican, like most of the Wild West.
