Kirk Gallaway Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 (edited) Police Say an Antifa Activist Likely Shot at Officers. His Gun Suggests Otherwise. This is about the antifa guy in an Aug. 29 shooting death of a supporter of the far-right group Patriot Prayer during the summer’s street protests over race and policing in Portland. Investigators said that Michael Reinoehl probably opened fire before officers killed him last year. But some key evidence raises questions about that conclusion. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/10/us/michael-reinoehl-killing-investigation.html?campaign_id=9&emc=edit_nn_20210411&instance_id=29113&nl=the-morning®i_id=61798350&segment_id=55362&te=1&user_id=48552702f942aacb0810b9de5ca41c55 Edited April 11, 2021 by Kirk Gallaway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Thomas Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Matt Gaetz is quite the can opener isn’t he? As in “can of worms” Longtime associate of Rep. Matt Gaetz leaves position at lobbying firm “Chris Dorworth’s biography and photo have been removed from the Ballard Partners website.” By Mike DeForest,,WKMG News 6 April 9, 2021, https://www.clickorlando.com/news/local/2021/04/10/longtime-associate-of-rep-matt-gaetz-leaves-position-at-lobbying-firm/ “Chris Dorworth, a former Florida state legislator and longtime associate of Congressman Matt Gaetz, abruptly departed his position at a lobbying firm Friday night. “Dorworth joined Ballard Partners in 2012 after losing his seat in the Florida House of Representatives in an upset election that deprived the Lake Mary Republican of serving as the next House Speaker.” “Dorworth served in the Florida legislature alongside Gaetz and has remained close, social media posts suggest.” “Gaetz, Dorworth and former Seminole County Tax Collector Joel Greenberg posed for a photograph together outside the White House in June of 2019.” Intelligence analyst Eric Garland pointed out that Ballard has been former President Donald Trump's "lobbyist of choice in Florida." https://twitter.com/ericgarland/status/1381213915070279681?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw Oh, what a tangled web we weave...

In related news, the Tennessee legislature has a new Oklahoma-style bill de-criminalizing vehicular homicide in cases where motorists hit protesters with their pick up trucks. 🤥 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk Gallaway Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Boy, I'm not sure if this guy, Greenberg whose ratting on Matt Gaetz could be any more of a screw up.

Ron Ecker Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I wonder what Gaetz's fiance Ginger Luckey thinks of her future Florida governor and U.S. president now? What are the odds of her actually marrying the creep? And will she visit him in prison? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Thomas Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 As insurrection raged, a South Florida video blogger provided a play-by-play – to Russians By Kevin G. Hall April 14, 2021 Miami Herald https://www.miamiherald.com/news/state/florida/article250505589.html “The Russian-speaking video blogger from South Florida walked alongside the throngs wearing MAGA hats and carrying Trump flags as the crowd descended on the Capitol, heeding the call to disrupt the certification of electoral college results. His broadcast reached Russian speakers across the United States and in the mother country, pushing the Stop the Steal narrative and other debunked election-fraud allegations. In the digital version of a tip jar, his YouTube and Instagram accounts included electronic payment links to PayPal and Zelle for those who might want to thank him for his broadcasts.” He got paid for it too. Isn’t that special? Steve Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Thomas Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 A group of anti-maskers in Sandpoint, Idaho this week protested a local library and criticized it for making "health and safety" its top priority. The Bonner County Daily Bee reports that protesters gathered this week to demand that the Sandpoint Library rescind its mask mandate and let them into the library without any kind of face covering. Protester Grant Dorman, for one, criticized the library's policy of prioritizing the health of its staff and patrons. Shutterstock Once upon a time, I interviewed for a job as the Director of that Library. Thank goodness I didn't take it. Steve Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inquiring minds want to know. Putin's Russian Federation is, essentially, a totalitarian, fascist police state. (Which is not to deny that there are fascist elements in Ukraine as well.) There seems to be a related devolution toward fascism in Eastern Europe today-- e.g., in Hungary, Turkey, and Poland.

James DiEugenio Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Be careful what you wish for Bob and William. Those nutty neo Nazis we backed in Ukraine are about to light tinder to a conflagration they will lose in spades. If that happens, Joe will have no one to blame but himself. He was Obama's man on this one. Will Hunter be sent in again to make 80 K a month to clean up the debris that is left of Ukraine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Gallaway Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 (edited) What I've always said about Yanukovych was, become elected as president. pilfer your Mother country to death of perhaps billions of dollars leaving behind an huge estate, and you get rewarded for it with................................................... an interview with Oliver Stone!

Steve Thomas Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 (edited) Trumpy, Trump, Trumpism to its logical conclusion: Trump-loving Virginia candidate attacks her own party and tells followers not to trust its vote counts by Brad Reed April 15, 2021 https://www.rawstory.com/amanda-chase-2652591837/ “Chase, a Republican candidate for Virginia governor who in the past has been forced to work from inside a plexiglass box over her refusal to obey the state legislature's mask rules, told her followers that the Virginia GOP will not deliver the "proper" results of its own upcoming gubernatorial convention, where she's pitted against six other Republican candidates. "DO NOT TRUST THE PARTY TO DELIVER ACCURATE RESULTS!" reads the email, which was posted on Twitter by The Virginia Mercury's Graham Moomaw. "Who should you go to for the proper results? Me and my campaign!" Chase also said her followers would know that the election was fixed if one of her rivals defeated her.” Thank you former Guy Mr. MAGA Man.
