The inevitable end result of our last 56 years


Recommended Posts

Here's more data relating to our discussion of "worst Presidents in history."

Another first for Donald J. Trump.

Trump was the first POTUS in history to damage the U.S. Postal Service-- in order to sabotage the timely delivery and processing of 2020 mail-in ballots.

"W", having been a postal employee for 30 years ending in 2017, I can only say, there are many things wrong with the USPS, not the least of which is the current Postmaster (and including many on the board of governors and executive leadership).  I only hope as things coalesce and he gets the time, President Biden will restructure (aka FIRE/REPLACE) as many members as he has authority over.  The USPS has been suffering under the tutelage of the mostly Republican leadership for some years now as they try to "run it like a business".  In the strictest sense, the postal service was never meant to be a business, it says it right in the name US Postal SERVICE.  It is and was not designed to make money, it is supposed to "BREAK EVEN" and provide universal service to all.  In trying to run it as a business, emphasis is placed unevenly on profit driven mailers and the core business of providing service universally and at the same price for all is shunted to the wayside.  It's one of those "socialist" ideas of Benjamin Franklin that many would like to do away with in order to make PROFIT.

Pretty far afield, so I'll stop there, but this is something that definitely needs to be addressed even in our more digital age.

May be a Twitter screenshot of 1 person and text that says 'Abraham Gutman Before anyone gives Tom Brady a trophy, don't forget that the Chiefs have the right to exhaus every legal avenue to challenge the result. It would be irresponsible to congratulate the Buccaneers so early. Many many fans are upset. Wouldn't want them to lose trust. Twitter for iPhone 2,067 175 QuoteTweets 8,210 × Devin Nunes' Russian Cow @abgutman Many people are saying there were many, many irregularities in that game. agree. We need to hold off calling the game for at least 2 months.'

LOL.

Meanwhile, here's a trivia question for the forum.

Can you name the five universities whose alumni include both, 1) a POTUS, and 2) a Super Bowl QB?

Wow, if you're right, that's pretty good Ty.! I immediately thought Hoover and Elway.

I think all of us have a local treasure trove of great local sports calls by our favorite local announcers. One such announcer in the SF Bay Area was Lon Simmons who, announced both the Giants and 49ers when I was growing and into middle age. unfortunately it seems like they resynced this call a second behind. But you get the picture of the urgency and surprise with a Steve Young run.

QAnon 'prophet' says Super Bowl is a sign Trump will soon return to the White House -- here's why

by Brad Reed February 08, 2021

https://www.rawstory.com/qanon-2650404677/

 

"As Right Wing Watch documents, self-described QAnon "prophet" Johnny Enlow on Monday told his followers that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' victory of the Kansas City Chiefs in Sunday's Super Bowl matchup was a divine sign of Trump's impending return to power.

Enlow's evidence for this claim is that Buccaneers linebacker Devin White, who made a game-sealing fourth-quarter interception, wears the number 45 -- and Trump was America's 45th president."

Yup. It's written in the stars.

Forbes is not the main stream media.  I've not noticed the story there, they've not picked up on it?  Surprising Schumer, Pelosi, AOC or some other Dem is not pointing this out.
