The Serpents Head is a six mission F18C Campaign. It starts in Nevada and ends in the Caucasus region, so both maps are required. (I have issued a version just in the Caucasus Map area for those of you without the Nevada Map). The campaign is story line based and follows the progress of “Ford” (yourself) and his involvement in a new conflict in the Caucasus Region. As in 2008 this is once again in the beleaguered area of Ossetia and Gori. This conflict is gathering pace at an alarming rate such that the West have sent in a multinational force to the Black Sea in the form of some ground forces but primarily a naval fleet with the USS John C Stennis at its heart. We join “Ford” during his last flight over Nevada, before he leaves first light. (THE FOLLOW UP "THE SERPENT'S HEAD 2 CAMPAIGN" IS NOW AVAILABLE FROM DCS. It continues "Fords" story and consists of 10 missions all fully voiced by actors. It is VR friendly and there is also an option for easy A2A) Update April 23 : Mission 6 updated and dark kneeboards added. To fly the Super carrier version the DCS Super Carrier Module is required. To successfully play the Campaign through you will need to be familiar with : 1. The use of the 9-line communication system and in particular its use with JTACs when they are lasing for you. 2. Use of the Gun, AIM9X air to air missile, delivery of Mark 83 bombs and AMG65 E laser guided missiles. 3. Use of radio. 4. Landing on the Stennis in various conditions including night time approach. 5. Use of Tacan and ICLS landing system. Everything else is covered in the attached briefs please read them before flying A few have noted that mission 3 is difficult. If you find it so I suggest you look at my suggestions in a couple of my comment replies below. Thanks to the following for the voices, couldn’t do this without them. • Erik “SOB” Polta • FedUpFF • Mistermann and Mrs Mistermann (Laura) • AndyB • Steel Jaw Most of all enjoy ! .

Your Communities More Communities Sign In or Create an Account /u/LakotaPride Bemidji Police have arrested a man after an 11-year-old girl told authorities that she and two other girls were tied up and raped by several men at a Bemidji home. On Sept. 23rd, the Bemidji Sanford Hospital’s emergency department called police on an assault complaint. According to court documents, the 11-year-old said she was with a woman who forced her to drink alcohol. Since the Corporate MSM claim to be looking out for this where is the reporting and outrage ? Corporate MSM needs to forward their mail to GTMO. What Border security ? More fraud on the tax payers. Important we never lose faith. I totally agree. Follows a pattern. Same FBI that committed felony fraud on the FISA Courts and no arrests ? Assisted in a illegal coup on a duly elected President while we were at war ? That is nothing compared to the justice God will bring down on them. MK Ultra on steroids ? Amen. I totally agree. They have done with is all western countries. This is the proof the left wants to see but refuse to see. Exactly. Hopefully people will vote this one out of office now. I totally agree with you. Reportedly more proof is coming out this coming week. Excellent reminder. Thank you. Exactly. Never has been any accountability in the past. What could possibly go wrong ?. Arrogance works on their downfall. Amen. I noticed medical allowances for other religions ? Why was the right to try dismissed ? Exactly. They really showed us. LOL Great reminder and thank you. Children make rash decisions. I suspect on the way home and seeing the store he realized with $10 K he could have had all the cookies he wanted. At least he can get cookies later again. But this sex change is a done deal and no going back. If he was living for today he would have taken the money and stopped at the store and bought all the cookies he wanted. Exactly when he could have taken the money , gone straight to the store and be set for life. That trial can not start fast enough. Exactly. Nobody would have endorsed a mRNA jab that was never tested or used before as being safe. They had no clue from the start.

Tara Reade, the former Senate aide who once worked in then-Senator Joe Biden’s office, has now flown to Russia. She has applied (or will apply) for Russian citizenship in the belief that her life is in danger in America. Tara Reade holds press conference Tara Reade, 59, held a nine-and-a-half hour press conference in Moscow with the Sputnik Media Group. She appeared with Maria Butina, a member of the Duma. Reportage, from The Guardian, CNN, The New York Times, and especially CBS, appears decidedly less than sympathetic. Indeed, Contributor Chris Cirino repeatedly lampooned the Times’ executive editorial staff for refusing any reportage of Tara Reade. Three of the outlets made much of her association with Butina, whom they described as “a convicted Russian spy.” Butina served time in the U.S., then returned to Russia and won election to the Duma. CBS News quoted her as saying a Republican lawmaker – whom they didn’t name – told Reade she was in physical danger. No other outlet reported any such quote. But she did say she felt safe “for the first time in a very long time” after arriving in Moscow. Tara Reade did receive invitations from Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) to testify before Congress. But on May 7, she left this ominous-sounding tweet: Reps. Greene and Gaetz apparently wanted her to share, again, her story that then-Senator Biden, in 1993, touched her inappropriately while she worked in his office. She first broached that story in 2019 and again in 2020 during the campaign. The reporting outlets make much of the lack of corroboration of her story, and Biden’s denial of it. But they do not acknowledge that they themselves have lent credence to sex-assault stories with thinner support. On settling in Russia Tara Reade said her decision to settle in Russia was difficult. She would prefer to live in America and Russia, but is prepared to live only in Russia, where she feels safe. Reade also made the point that “most American citizens” do not support any war with Russia. Ms. Butina confirmed that Tara Reade seeks Russian citizenship and promised to ask Vladimir Putin himself to intercede. Russian citizenship is available to non-Russians, but usually at a price. Reade also hinted that a significant number of Americans “are coming to Russia.” This could, but is not necessarily, a reference to the 200 American and Canadian families who have pre-paid for the construction of a village for American and Canadian expatriates on the outskirts of Moscow. VISTA Immigration, who arranged the project, estimates that about 10,000 non-Russians want to move into Russia to stay. That aside, those 200 families might have different reasons for moving from those Tara Reade has. Tara Reade drew several pointedly unsympathetic tweets in reply to her press conference. But one person equally pointedly questioned their authenticity. Reade left copious links to various accounts and versions of the press conference on her Substack page. About the image and headline Our use of the verb to defect in the headline is shorthand only. We attach no shame to anyone who feels, with clear and convincing evidence, that the country of her birth can or will no longer guarantee her physical safety. Tara Reade has since protested the use of the verb to defect by legacy media organs like Fox News. Indeed no media organ has used that verb in any of its forms since the Fall of the Berlin Wall (9 November 1989). Terry A. Hurlbut has been a student of politics, philosophy, and science for more than 35 years. He is a graduate of Yale College and has served as a physician-level laboratory administrator in a 250-bed community hospital. He also is a serious student of the Bible, is conversant in its two primary original languages, and has followed the creation-science movement closely since 1993.

Meghan McCain wrote quite possibly one of the loveliest tributes a daughter could write to her father John McCain. We suggest you grab a tissue (or five) before reading the following: — Meghan McCain (@MeghanMcCain) August 26, 2018 Truth be told, the majority of people on Meghan’s thread, even the Lefties, were fairly respectful of McCain’s post and her father. Sure, there were a few horrible people (it IS Twitter), but for the most part, people were supportive. It wasn’t until Sarah Sanders reached out to Meghan to offer her condolences that the Left absolutely reminded us of who they really are: There is no way any father could be prouder. Our hearts and prayers are with you. He was a great American. God bless you and your family. https://t.co/JFt7xUs6gW — Sarah Sanders (@PressSec) August 26, 2018 What she said is lovely and respectful. The rest of these comments, not so much. No, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, you don't have the right to praise John McCain in one breath and then dishonestly defend Donald Trump in the next breath. Just resign! John McCain’s final "screw you" to Donald Trump… https://t.co/TmvnPrnJqR — Palmer Report (@PalmerReport) August 26, 2018 Doncha love how this guy is exploiting McCain’s death to push an article on his own crappy site? Classy. Sarah is truly disgusting, anti Christian trash — Jay Pas (@NavyPatriot50) August 26, 2018 Huh? — DACman (@DJT_lying_king) August 26, 2018 On a thread where she was sending her condolences. I thought you were the spokesperson for Trump? Won’t he be mad about your kind words for John McCain? — Kristin (@kristinnw) August 26, 2018 We used to joke about Trump Derangement Syndrome … used to. @PressSec, you do not speak for John McCain. You tell lies for the monster-in-chief, who doesn’t have a heart or a soul to pray with. Great Americans respect the truth, each other & this country. Until you do any one of those things, your words are meaningless. — Leen Onme ??? [insomniactivist] (@disentidealist) August 26, 2018 She wasn’t speaking for John McCain? Which eyebrow wrote this? — Attila The Nun (@slagathoratprom) August 26, 2018 @presssec you and the rest of your gang need to sit this one out you are not worthy. — Cindy (@cinnicholson) August 26, 2018 So now the Left thinks they own McCain’s death? Alrighty then. Literally no one cares what you have to say. You speak for and protect a man who called John McCain awful things and tried very hard to destroy his legacy. Just be quiet. — TexasBrit (@britishemily78) August 26, 2018 She says as she cares enough about what Sarah says to answer her on Twitter. These people. https://twitter.com/marmrules/status/1033688892191457280 Sweethearts, the lot of ’em. No one cares what you think unless they're an idiot. Have you ever really sat down and considered that starkly obvious fact? — Richard Metzger (@RichardMetzger) August 26, 2018 You’re a huge stain on the history of our nation #SarahSlanders — MzGarnetStar (@MzGarnetStar) August 26, 2018 There’s something sickening when a churlish, mendacious spokeswomen for a treasonous megalomaniac drips praise and respect from her lying maw for a great, dignified and honorable man like McCain. — Archangel Michael (@goodfriendmike) August 26, 2018 Six years ago these same people were calling McCain a racist and claiming he wasn’t mentally well enough to be in politics. Hypocritical much? Just stop. The second you support a maniac who claims he wasn’t a war hero because he got caught, you instantly lose literally all of your credibility. Check back in when you grow a conscious, if you ever do. Until then, just do the country, hell…the world…a favor & STFU. — Kelly Wolitzky (@KellyWolitzky) August 26, 2018 Like we said, these people.

Thursday, March 25, 2010 Sunday, March 21, 2010 Well, they did it. This century's most corrupt band of liars, cheats and thugs have made the biggest step yet toward making America a Communist Nation. The words "transparent" and "open" mean nothing to them. Democracy and Capitolism are swear words to them. Truth and Justice are a nuisance to them. Thanks to everybody who refused to believe Obama when he told us he was going to "fundamentally change America." Thanks for not reading his voting record while he was still in Illinois. Thanks a lot for voting for "hope and change." Because of your pathetic lack of responsibility and foresight, you have effectively ruined any chance for future generations to know the liberties that we have seen. If you voted for "O" you should be ashamed of yourselves. Imagine if George W. Bush were to have conducted himself in the manner in which our illustrious president has. Would the press let him off for such a string of lies? For allowing and encouraging open bribery? Would they have kissed his feet, and treated him like deity while hounded representatives, gave them rides on Air Force One, and gave their family members life-long positions in the judicial system? No. They would have raked him over the coals. They would have... well, they would have treated him like George W. Bush. Welcome to the New Deal, only it isn't a new deal at all - it is an outright Marxist take over. This is nothing more than Communism. The whole thing makes me feel ill.

Rob, Eric Odom may well be the main *national* Tea Party organizer, for all I know. We've been talking about the *local* Tea Party event scheduled for April 15 at the Civic Center. I rather suspect there *will* be some media there -- noon in front of City Hall is a good place to attract them, and the fact that it's happening on Tax Day gives them a good hook. And, of course, KSFO *is* media, and I imagine they'll probably be broadcasting live. There is another local Tea Party planned for July 4 that Campaign for Liberty people will be organizing. There may be other local Tea Party events in the works, I'm not sure. The two announced speakers for the Civic Center Tea Party -- KSFO's Melanie Morgan and ex-congressional candidate Dana Walsh (the Republican who ran against Phil and Nancy Pelosi), plus introductions by Howard Epstein, the chair of the local Republican Party -- are all pretty strong clues that Ron Paul supporters are *not* in charge of this event. It sounds to me like this Sally Zelikovsky is the main organizer; at a guess, probably her and whatever conservative friends of hers participate in these regular meetings at her house which she mentions in the email just forwarded by Michael Edelstein. My guess is that the email I forwarded from the Marin list probably sums up the attitude of most of the local Ron Paul folks about the Civic Center event -- annoyance at the neo-con GOP establishment for trying to capitalize on a phenomenon developed last year, and further propagated this spring, by Ron Paul supporters. Love & Liberty, ((( starchild )))

Sunday, October 31 Look at this picture of Maddox and his political principles, too — he's indistinguishable from contemporary teabaggers, except for the fact that he had his sign professionally done and all the words are spelled correctly.What exactly are you against - free enterprise, capitalism, liberty, private property rights, or America? Or are you implying that people who support free enterprise, capitalism, liberty, private property rights, or America are intrinsically racist? Being on the right side of one debate doesn't always make up for being a ranting loon in another. (From here.) That's exactly what he's implying.

Questions about historic precedence Virtually everyone has graciously acknowleged the momentous occasion of America electing the first African-American president. Now that all the media buzz is about the Democrats’ control of government and liberals’ plans for wielding it and Obama’s likely cabinet choices…..time to ask some questions. A black man was elected president Tuesday. That makes history. However: Would we — MSNBC and everyone else — be celebrating it as a historic moment if a right-wing woman named Sarah Palin were vice-president-elect today? Would we — MSNBC and everyone else — be celebrating it as a historic moment if a right-wing Mormon named Mitt Romney were elected president today? I have my doubts. No doubt. We know the answers. With few exceptions, Sarah Palin was attacked by liberal feminists and the Left. That she was a woman didn’t make a difference in their lives except to be a massive threat to their power. America didn’t gather round and celebrate Clarence Thomas, when he was nominated to the Supreme Court 17 years ago. That, too, was about ideology. There’s the point that’s been bothering me in this celebration. Yes, young African-American children can now look at Obama and aspire to high levels of achievement in America’s hierarchy. But the media did not help them realize that when Justice Clarence Thomas was elevated to the Supreme Court. Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice was certainly not held up to them for her achievement. How about Gen. Colin Powell? Congressman J.C. Watts? Lt. Gov. Michael Steele? They weren’t liberal icons. They’re values didn’t mesh with the liberal media’s ideology. Barack Obama, I submit, was — with few exceptions — about ideology. Especially abortion, in the extreme… another issue that hurts blacks in a virtual genocide, arguing even in defense of infanticide. What else can you honestly call partial-birth abortion? That would be covered under the ‘Freedom of Choice Act’ Obama promised NARAL he would sign if elected. So here’s another question. Now that some very prominent Catholic scholars who claim to be ‘pro-life Catholics for Obama’ have helped him get elected through their influence, will President Obama be influenced by their pro-life ideas? Didn’t he just prove that anything is possible in America? Join our community of truth-tellers Get the latest updates delivered right to your inbox Have your say!

The Dope The Real History of the Mexican Drug TradePaperback Engels 2022 9781324021827 Samenvatting A myth-busting, 100-year history of the Mexican drug trade that reveals how an industry founded by farmers and village healers became dominated by cartels and kingpins. The Mexican drug trade has inspired prejudiced narratives of a war between north and south, white and brown; between noble cops and vicious kingpins, corrupt politicians and powerful cartels. In this first comprehensive history of the trade, historian Benjamin T. Smith tells the real story of how and why this one-peaceful industry turned violent. He uncovers its origins and explains how this illicit business essentially built modern Mexico, affecting everything from agriculture to medicine to economics—and the country’s all-important relationship with the United States. Drawing on unprecedented archival research; leaked DEA, Mexican law enforcement, and cartel documents; and dozens of harrowing interviews, Smith tells a thrilling story brimming with vivid characters—from Ignacia “La Nacha” Jasso, “queen pin” of Ciudad Juárez, to Dr. Leopoldo Salazar Viniegra, the crusading physician who argued that marijuana was harmless and tried to decriminalize morphine, to Harry Anslinger, the Machiavellian founder of the American Federal Bureau of Narcotics, who drummed up racist drug panics to increase his budget. Smith also profiles everyday agricultural workers, whose stories reveal both the economic benefits and the human cost of the trade. The Dope contains many surprising conclusions about drug use and the failure of drug enforcement, all backed by new research and data. Smith explains the complicated dynamics that drive the current drug war violence, probes the U.S.-backed policies that have inflamed the carnage, and explores corruption on both sides of the border. A dark morality tale about the American hunger for intoxication and the necessities of human survival, The Dope is essential for understanding the violence in the drug war and how decades-old myths shape Mexico in the American imagination today.

Or here: http://www.sanderson1611.blogspot.com According to current federal law, border patrol agents currently have the authority to stop and conduct searches on vessels, trains, aircraft, or other vehicles anywhere within "a reasonable distance from any external boundary of the United States." This "reasonable distance" is defined as 100 miles from any border, including coastal boundaries. In this 100-mile zone, the US Border Patrol has claimed certain extra-constitutional powers, such as, claiming the authority to operate inland immigration checkpoints. In practice, Border Patrol agents routinely ignore or misunderstand the limits of their legal authority, violating the constitutional rights of innocent people. Although the 100-mile border zone is not literally "Constitution-free," it is frequently treated as such by the Border Patrol. As a result, two-thirds of the U.S. population, or approximately 200 million people, are potentially subject to detention and warrantless searches by Border Patrol agents. This film documents the story of Pastor Steven Anderson being being beaten, tasered, and jailed for refusing a warrant-less search of his vehicle. The film also covers his trial and subsequent border patrol encounters. Feature running time - 56 minutes

Reviewing city-level crime data early in the pandemic, researchers reach conclusions about changes in reported crime during early COVID-19. They find that violent and nonviolent crime both decreased, with much of the decrease occurring in public places (as opposed to residential areas). They note an increase in certain types of crime, and also note that their conclusions may not account for changes in reporting rates during this time.

The massive political tides have come and gone. Although the RNC and DNC are now officially over, the conversations around each event have not faded, and many are still weighing in on the relative successes of each convention, as well as the impact they have made in their host cities. “Convention tourism” is a big business, and the national political conventions are its most sought-after jewels. Will the expectations set pre-festivities hold true? Leading up to the conventions, news channels reported many different estimates of the economic impact of each event, which ranged in levels of optimism both before and after the events: from boisterous celebrations (RNC and DNC) to unfiltered skepticism (RNC and DNC). While there are still official numbers being crunched to see the full impact of these events on their host cities, we have already been flooded with varying analyses. Let’s break down what we know thus far about the effect the conventions had on their respective cities: RNC in Cleveland and DNC in Philadelphia, as well as highlight those conversations about the importance of hosting major events in a growing city. Republican National Convention - 5,000 hotel rooms requested in downtown Cleveland - 16,000 hotel rooms requested in northeast Ohio - 50,000 visitors - 2,472 delegates - $50 million in federal grants - 50 hotels and/or waterparks hosting convention delegates - 1,200 convention-related events Total Spending: $180 million spent by visitors – 10% less than projected The Commentary - The winners – hotels saw record high rates and occupancy levels - And the losers – but small businesses saw a decline in business during the week - Painting a positive image of Cleveland – the convention helped brighten the perception of the city - False promises – the city’s restaurants prepared for heavy crowds to find few hungry visitors coming in - The post-convention effect – Cleveland is hoping to continue to see floods of tourists coming through even if the convention has come to a close Democratic National Convention - 18,000 volunteers - 50,000 visitors - $60 million for total convention costs - 4,769 delegates - $50 million in federal grants - 90 contracted hotels for delegates, more than 13,000 rooms - 500-700 convention-related events Total spending: $180 million by visitors The Commentary - Philly businesses that made it big – Museums, bars, hotels, and more were booked during the convention - Not another Popeapolcalypse – restaurants saw the gains they hoped for, unlike the major visit from Pope Francis in September - Who got the most buzz? – Coffee shops seemed to get the most DNC action - “I could live there” – visitors overall were impressed by the city - Mixed reviews – The convention ‘report card’ showed a range of success as well as highlighting missteps by the city and DNC organizers - Keeping the momentum – Philly businesses hope the convention surge can outlast the convention Are these large-scale events worth it? - When Mega-Events Make Sense – breaking down the opportunities and headaches major events bring to their host city - The high cost of conventions for host cities like Philly – is it worth the uncertainty of economic return? - One Way (of Many) to be a World-Class City – hosting large-scale events are a necessary part of being an important city Lauren Bauman is a Marketing Assistant at Econsult Solutions, Inc.

Kim Schrier |Member of the U.S. House of Representatives| from Washington's 8th district |Assumed office | January 3, 2019 |Preceded by||Dave Reichert| |Personal details| |Born| Kimberly Merle Schrier August 23, 1968 Los Angeles, California, U.S. |Political party||Democratic| |Spouse||David Gowing| |Children||1| |Education||University of California, Berkeley (BS)| University of California, Davis (MD) |Website||House website| Kimberly Merle Schrier (// SHRIRE; born August 23, 1968)[1][2] is an American politician and a licensed physician serving as the U.S. representative from Washington's 8th congressional district since 2019. She is a member of the Democratic Party. Schrier was born and raised in Los Angeles, California,[2] and earned a bachelor's degree from the University of California, Berkeley, graduating Phi Beta Kappa with a degree in astrophysics. She attended the University of California Davis School of Medicine, where she earned her Doctor of Medicine degree. She continued on to a residency at the Stanford University School of Medicine. Schrier's professional career as a pediatrician began in Ashland, Oregon, where she worked for one year before joining Virginia Mason Medical Center in Issaquah, Washington in 2001. While working at Virginia Mason, she became politically active, particularly on healthcare issues. In 2017, Schrier was dissatisfied with Congressman Dave Reichert's handling of the efforts to repeal and replace the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and this, coupled with her frustration with the results of the 2016 elections, led to her decision to enter politics.[3][4] Schrier announced her candidacy to represent Washington's 8th congressional district in August 2017, a year before the jungle primary. She initially intended to challenge incumbent Dave Reichert, but the seat became open in September 2017 when Reichert announced he was retiring. She had decided to run after the 2016 election, making the expansion of Medicare and the Affordable Care Act the centerpiece of her campaign.[3][5][6][7] No Democrat had ever been elected to represent the district and Reichert had been seen as a relatively safe incumbent, but his decision to retire left the seat as a potential Democratic pickup in an election year already leaning toward the Democratic Party.[8] Schrier advanced from the top-two primary, narrowly defeating attorney Jason Rittereiser, and advancing to face Republican nominee Dino Rossi in the general election.[9] The 8th district campaign attracted $25 million in spending, making it the most expensive in state history and one of the costliest nationally in 2018, including controversial attack ads from the Rossi campaign.[10][11] One such ad nicknamed Schrier "Dr. Tax" and depicted her holding a large stack of $20 bills. The ad was perceived as antisemitic by The Washington Post.[12] Schrier won the general election with 52% of the vote.[13][14] Schrier ran for reelection. She advanced from the top-two primary in first place[15] and faced the second-place finisher, Republican U.S. Army veteran and Amazon senior project manager Jesse Jensen.[16] Schrier won the general election with 51.7% of the vote.[17] Schrier defeated Republican nominee and lawyer Matt Larkin with 53.4% of the vote.[18] [19] In 2022, Washington's Eighth District was the state's most competitive and was among the key races in determining House partisan control.[20] During the race, Schrier criticized Larkin's proposals for abortion bans without exceptions for rape or incest.[21] During Donald Trump's administration, Schrier voted in line with the president's stated position 6.6% of the time.[22] As of June 2022, Schrier had voted in line with Joe Biden's stated position 100% of the time.[23] |Party||Candidate||Votes||%| |Republican||Dino Rossi[a]||73,288||43.1| |Democratic||Kim Schrier||31,837||18.7| |Democratic||Jason Rittereiser||30,708||18.1| |Democratic||Shannon Hader||21,317||12.5| |Republican||Jack Hughes-Hageman||4,270||2.5| |Republican||Gordon Allen Pross||2,081||1.2| |Democratic||Tom Cramer||1,468||0.9| |Independent||Bill Grassie[b]||1,163||0.7| |Libertarian||Richard Travis Reyes||1,154||0.7| |Independent||Keith Arnold||1,090||0.6| |Independent||Patrick Dillon[c]||898||0.5| |No party preference||Todd Mahaffey||673||0.4| |Total votes||169,947||100.0| |Party||Candidate||Votes||%| |Democratic||Kim Schrier||164,089||52.4| |Republican||Dino Rossi||148,968||47.6| |Total votes||313,057||100.0| |Democratic gain from Republican| |Party||Candidate||Votes||%| |Democratic||Kim Schrier (incumbent)||106,611||43.3| |Republican||Jesse Jensen||49,368||20.0| |Republican||Keith R.

| | 12/11/2017 Bech Bruun, chairman of the Texas Water Development Board, announced that he will challenge embattled Rep. Blake Farenthold (R-Corpus Christi) in the Republican primary. With candidate filing closing today, it appears that Mr. Bruun will be the top Republican challenger to Mr. Farenthold, who is under attack for an earlier taxpayer-paid sexual harassment settlement. If Bruun can amass sufficient campaign resources, this can become a highly competitive nomination campaign. More will be known after the results of today’s filing become public. --Jim Ellis | | The Rundown Blog Learn more about the candidates running in key elections across the United States.

Central and Eastern European States - Towards 1989: Year of Revolution '…try to imagine why people came out on to the streets in 1989. Even after we take into account such important reasons for the massive support for change, we still need to understand why people felt they could behave as they did in Wrocław, Prague or Leipzig. Dissidents, no matter how famous in the West, could no more be an instigator of that popular upheaval than was Mikhail Gorbachev. Would most people risk repression because of a text by an imprisoned playwright or a speech by a communist leader? Hardly – no more than it was likely that crowds in Petrograd in 1917 had studied Marx and Lenin. Ideas – even those about freedom and oppression, or about economic deprivation – do not translate automatically into action. ‘ Kenney :12 Poland 1981-1989 Despite initial appearances to the contrary, the imposition of martial law by Jaruzelski did not bear comparison with the process of ‘Normalization’ undertaken by Gustáv Husák in Czechoslovakia after the Prague Spring. Although Jaruzelski attacked Solidarity and its leadership, he at no point sought to rewind time. He accepted that Poland had been changed for good by the Solidarity days. For example, although initially the media and artists were once again controlled, as long as they distanced themselves from Solidarity they were largely left alone. The same was true of the Catholic Church which under the leadership of Archbishop Glemp reached a satisfactory accommodation with the Jaruzelski regime. And what of Solidarity? Despite the highly successful decapitation of the Solidarity leadership, a few activists did escape capture and continued the opposition underground.New leaders like Zbigniew Bujak, inspired by Václav Havel, continued the tradition of KOR’s anti-politics. This meant not choosing between revolution and compromise but rather undermining the state by ignoring it. This did not require an organised, centralised opposition but rather localised, personal resistance. The Underground Society ‘Instead of organizing ourselves as an underground state, we should be organizing ourselves as an underground society… Such a movement should strive for a situation in which the government will control empty shops but not the market, employment but not the means to livelihood, the state press but not the flow of information, printing houses but not the publishing movement, telephones and the postal service but not communication, schools but not education’. (Wiktor Kulerski quoted in Stokes: 106) Compared with the relative intellectual isolation of Czechoslovakia’s Charter 77, underground Solidarity found widespread, popular support for a resistance campaign. It is significant that all this occurred before Mikhail Gorbachev and Glasnost. However, the decentralised anti-political actions encouraged by Solidarity also created problems for the organisation. Solidarity’s underground leadership, the Temporary Coordinating Commission (TKK) faced difficulties in trying to organise more traditional protests and strikes. To some extent, a generational divide opened up between old Solidarity and the plethora of anti-political movements that Jaruzelski’s actions had encouraged and of which underground Solidarity was merely one representative. The Battle of the Crosses In Warsaw first old women and then students began placing flowers in the form of a large cross in Victory Square to memorialise the late Cardinal Wyszyński. Each night the police would clear the square and wash away the flowers. And the next morning first one old woman and then another would appear with her carnations and the process would be repeated. By mid-1982 the authorities had to close off the square to end the ‘battle of the crosses' Stokes 108 In October 1982, the government established ‘self-governing’ unions that would accept the ‘leading role’ of the Communist Party that Solidarity had refused. About 2.5 million workers signed up to these unions and a Solidarity led national protest strike against them proved disappointing. On November 12th Jaruzelski felt confident enough to release Lech Wałęsa from prison. 1983 and 1984 were difficult years for Solidarity, although out of prison the leadership was continually harassed and despite receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, Wałęsa was unable to motivate a populace that was benefiting from a slightly improved economic situation. Local elections in 1984 produced a turnout of at least 60%, despite calls from Solidarity for a boycott. The state with the collaboration of Cardinal Glemp and the Catholic Church in Poland seemed to have Solidarity under control. Solidarity may have been under political control but the social forces that had been released in 1981 refused to go back in the bottle. Jaruzelski, to his credit, realised this. Political control was exercised alongside judicious reforms and concessions. Events surrounding the murder of Father Jerzy Popiełuszko illustrated this very well. Popiełuszko, a pro-Solidarity priest was found dead in October 1984; remarkably, Jaruzelski put the security police responsible for the murder on public trial. This allowed Jaruzelski to both win popular support and to undermine conservative opposition in the Party. In September 1986, Jaruzelski granted an amnesty to all people who had been detained during martial law. This was the pre-requisite that Solidarity had required from the government before it would enter into discussions. Ten days later, Wałęsa formed the Solidarity Provisional Council and although not legal, Solidarity was no longer entirely underground. Jaruzelski quickly became Mikhail Gorbachev’s most open supporter of Glasnost and oversaw the most liberalized of Eastern Bloc societies. International economic sanctions were dropped and in September 1987, Vice-President Bush made an official visit to Poland meeting both Jaruzelski and Wałęsa. As Gale Stokes argues, ‘In this new atmosphere it was the government that seemed to retain the reform initiative, not the opposition.’ (117) Father Jerzy Popiełuszko What would make Jaruzelski’s delicate balancing act impossible to sustain, was the underlying weakness of the Polish economy. By 1987 the Polish economy was once again on the verge of collapse; the shortage economy was famously summed up by Adam Michnik when he said ‘everybody’s fondest dream was to be able to find a roll of toilet paper’. The government proposed some radical reforms including the creation of private firms, but also significant austerity measures which would result in major price rises. But most radical of all was how they planned to introduce the changes. On the 29th November 1987 the government conducted a national referendum asking for the public for their approval of the changes. When the government unexpectedly declared itself defeated, Solidarity announced that Poland had entered ‘a new phase’ and that the ‘war was over’. (Stokes: 120) In early 1988, the Solidarity leadership fought to maintain discipline and control over the rank and file, as widespread strikes broke out. For the young strikers, many of whom were not Solidarity members, the lack of militancy of the Solidarity leadership or ‘senators’ as they characterized them, was a sign of weakness. In August 1988, Wałęsa was called to a secret meeting in Warsaw with Minister of Defence, General Kiszczak. If Wałęsa could get the strikes called off, the government offered to discuss the legalisation of Solidarity. Despite contrary advice from many of his closest advisers, Wałęsa agreed and after three days of cajoling, the workers went back. Jaruzelski also faced internal opposition to his plan of legalising Solidarity. The central committee plenum broke up without reaching a decision in December 1988 and only the threat of Jaruzelski’s resignation in January 1989, forced the decision through. The historic round-table discussions between the government, the Church, ‘opposition’ political parties, intellectuals and trade unions including Solidarity began on February 6th 1989. The most significant decisions were that Solidarity would be legally recognized and would be given minority representation in the new parliament. Solidarity would be allowed to contest 35% of the seats in the Sejm (the lower house) and all of the seats in the new upper house, the Senate. The elections were called for June 4th, allowing Solidarity just two months to prepare. In addition, the Communist Party coalition candidates would have the advantage of staff, offices, money and a monopoly over the media. Despite this, Solidarity prepared well; they nominated one candidate per seat, produced striking posters featuring images of Wałęsa and the famous Solidarity logo and they relied on a national network of enthused volunteers. Nobody anywhere predicted the sensational results. After the second round of voting, Solidarity candidates won all 161 seats they contested in the Sejm and 99 out of the 100 seats available in the Senate. Solidarity poster signed by Wałęsa High Noon Tomasz Sarnecki 2+2 must be 4 Tomaszewski Election '89 Bałuk-Zaborowska E ‘They must have known they would win! But they didn’t. I sat with an exhausted and depressed Adam Michnik over lunch that Sunday, and he did not know. I drank with a nervously excited Jacek Kuroń late that evening, and he did not know. Nobody knew.’ Historian and eyewitness Timothy Garton Ash – The Magic Latern 1990. Immediately after the election, Jaruzelski proposed that Solidarity enter into a coalition government. At this stage, Solidarity refused, apparently unprepared for power, the leadership was content with the role of opposition and making a serious challenge to the communists in four years time. But events would not allow them this luxury. In the space of a few weeks, Solidarity’s social influence was being overtaken by Solidarity’s political power. This had already been manifested with the Sejm election of Jaruzelski to the presidency which required seven Solidarity members to deliberately spoil their ballot papers to ensure that the general was elected. The power of Solidarity was further revealed when it became clear in August that the prospective communist Prime Minister, General Kiszczak was unable to form a government. Now it was Solidarity’s turn to propose a coalition government, this time on their terms and with their prime minister, Tadeusz Mazowiecki. After a phone call from Gorbachev and the assurance from Solidarity that Polish membership of the Warsaw Pact was not threatened, Jaruzelski accepted Wałęsa’s coalition proposal. As Garton Ash put it, ‘the chalice thus passed from the gentleman-gaoler [General Kiszczak] to the gentleman prisoner, for Mazowiecski, like most of the top Solidarity leadership, had been interned for a year under martial law’. (Garton-Ash 1990: 40) On the 21st of August, the 21st anniversary of the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia, 10,000 people took to the streets of Czechoslovakia. They sang ‘Long Live Dubček’, but they also sang ‘Long Live Poland’. The success of Solidarity was about to influence the most extraordinary autumn in living memory. Eyewitness vs Historian Timothy Garton-Ash was an eyewitness to the revolutionary events he describes. He acknowledges the advantages and disadvantages of the eyewitness compared to the historian. ‘The disadvantages of the witness as against the historian are those of partiality in space, time and judgement. The witness can only be in one place at one time, and tends to attach an exaggerated importance to what he personally saw or heard. The historian can gather all the witnesses’ accounts and is generally unswayed by that first-hand experience. What happened afterwards changes our view of what went before. The historian usually knows more about what happened afterwards, simply because he writes later. Finally, there is partiality in judgement… Such are the grave disadvantages of a witness. But there are also advantages. The witness can, if he is lucky, see things that the historian will not find in any document. Sometimes a glance, a shrug, a chance remark, will be more revealing than a hundred speeches. In these events, even more than in most contemporary history, much of great importance was not written down at all, either because it occurred in hasty conversations with no note-takers present, or because the business was conducted on the telephone, or because the words or pictures came by television. (The importance of television can hardly be overstated. Future historians of these events will surely have to spend as much time in television archives as in libraries.) The witness can see how things that appear to have been spontaneous were actually rigged; but also how things that appear to have been carefully arranged were in fact the hapless product of sheer confusion. And perhaps the most difficult thing of all for the historian to recapture is the sense of what, at a given historical moment, people did not know about the future. TGA The Magic Lantern 21-22 Czechoslovakia 1981-1989 In 1985, Mikhail Gorbachev came to power in the Soviet Union. He acknowledged the mistakes of his predecessors and the comparative economic failure of the Soviet Empire. The Eastern Bloc economies were unable to match the technological advances achieved in the West or to keep up in the arms race. Soviet attempts to intervene in support of their puppet regime in Afghanistan were failing. Western leaders such as Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher, perhaps sensing their opponent’s weakness, had departed from the accommodating rhetoric of 1970s Detente and characterised the Soviet Bloc as an “evil empire”. Gorbachev called for economic “perestroika” (restructuring), a relaxation of central planning and the introduction of market forces. Hardliners within the Party opposed this as a step towards capitalism. Gorbachev sought to widen the debate through greater political “glasnost” (openness), a willingness to discuss mistakes and allow the expression of alternative ideas. This liberalisation proved popular among non-Party members. However the lack of internal Party unity on the issue of economic reform denied Gorbachev the option of the Chinese model of economic reform accompanied by tight political control. The only way to pursue the necessary ‘perestroika’ was to draw on the support of those outside the Party, in effect to abandon the Communist Party’s long held monopoly of the truth. A new, reform minded leader, an attempt to save the system by a loosening of economic and political control, tolerance of alternative opinions; the parallels with Prague Spring were obvious. Husak’s regime was based on a rejection of that previous effort to achieve ‘socialism with a human face’; they had purged the reformers of 1968, and had clung onto power through the intervening years of ‘normalisation’. The dynamic, new leadership in the Soviet Union was in stark contrast to the aging Czechoslovak apparatchiks. Their political careers had rested on adherence to Moscow’s line, but how could they now join in criticisms of the years of stagnation without implicating themselves? The comparison was made explicit by a Soviet spokesman in 1987. When asked what the difference between perestroika and Prague Spring was, he replied, “19 years.” Even more threatening to the Husak’s regime was Gorbachev’s rejection of the Brezhnev doctrine. “The time is ripe for abandoning views on foreign policy which are influenced by an imperial standpoint. Neither the Soviet Union nor the USA is able to force its will on others. It is possible to suppress, compel, bribe, break or blast, but only for a certain period. From the point of view of long term big time politics, no one will be able to subordinate others. That is why only one thing – relations of equality – remains. All of us must realise this...This also obliges us to respect one another and everybody.” This was later summarised by Soviet Foreign Ministry spokesman Gennadi Gerasimov as the Sinatra Doctrine, each satellite was free to ‘Do it their way’. The threat of Soviet intervention had been removed. Another Charter 77 dissident, Ludvik Vaculik was pessimistic about the reform process, “I observe all this in sceptical suspense, as a socialist, and with some derision as a Czech....True, that country has needed for a long time for someone to come and shake it up, and yet it’s all rather sad: by the time an idea has been grasped by the Russian bureaucrat, it is hardly new where the rest of the world is concerned. We saw this in cybernetics 40 years ago, later it was jazz, and now we are being presented with the Moscow version of the 1968 Prague Spring. Our people are understandably puzzled, asking one another what’s in it for us. At the same time I watch our government reluctantly giving us information and trying to calm down expectations: don’t worry, nothing as momentous as that is going to happen here. After all, every country has the right to go its own way, courageously declared (Government Minister) Bilak. There you are then – after all these years we have longed for a government that would not act as someone’s arse-licker, and now we have got it! Is this not indeed a historic moment?” At the same time, the other pillar of Husak’s regime, the fragile social contract with the workers, was being eroded by economic decline. The widening gap between East and West was impossible to hide in an age of improved communication, in which Western television and radio could endlessly demonstrate the material and cultural shortcomings of the Soviet Bloc. The generation reaching adulthood in the 1980s born long after the War, had no memories of even harder times, or of the Liberation, no framework within which the years of Soviet domination could be construed as positive. As the economy stalled, even the celebrated social mobility that characterised the rapid industrialisation of early state socialism and that enabled peasants’ and workers’ to access greater education and employment opportunities had ground to a halt. Ambitious, younger employees found promotional prospects blocked by older, long-serving political appointees. Party membership declined throughout the region and the numbers of those who genuinely believed in the parroted slogans of Leninist purity dwindled. The Velvet Revolution - 1989 Encouraged by the fresh winds blowing from Moscow, increasing numbers of Czechs and Slovaks were prepared to voice their opposition to the regime. Some, such as the ‘Bratislava Aloud’ group, which in 1987 published a report criticising the government’s disregard for the environment, developed from single issues. Other sources of opposition emerged from non-communist student groups. Although Czechs and Slovaks in general are less in thrall to organised religion than their counterparts in Poland, the churches also grew bolder as centres of opposition; in 1988, rallies demanding religious freedom were held in Prague and Bratislava. A petition formulated by the Archbishop of Prague attracted 500,000 signatures. Vaclav Havel was again arrested and imprisoned following his participation in anti-government demonstrations marking the anniversary of Jan Palach’s death. This heavy handed reaction provoked yet more protests and Havel was released. Elsewhere in the region, Soviet control was collapsing rapidly. Reform Communists in Hungary and Poland attempted to reach compromises with their opponents. In May 1989, the border between Hungary and Austria was dismantled, allowing free travel. In June, Solidarity won a share of power in free elections. In October and November, mass demonstrations in East Germany culminated in the dismantling of the Berlin Wall. On November 17th, in Prague, an officially sanctioned commemoration of Jan Opletal’s death at the hands of the Nazis turned into yet another anti-government protest. The riot police violently assaulted the protesters causing many injuries. Rumours that a student had been killed lead to further outraged protests. Throughout the country citizens poured onto the streets. Havel sought to harness the strength of popular feeling, gathering like minded opponents to form Civic Forum, an umbrella organisation which articulated the people’s demands. The government struggled to respond to the gathering strength of opposition and, ruthlessly purged of reformists, contained no credible alternatives to the architects of normalisation. This legacy of 1968 made it difficult for them to follow the lead of the Hungarian and Polish Parties. Another option, as attempted unsuccessfully in Romania the following month, was to adopt the Chinese Tiananmen Square example and order security forces to violently suppress the opposition. In retrospect, it is tempting to view the events of 1989 as inevitable but this threat of violence was a real risk that each individual involved in a street demonstration had to weigh up. In particular, the term “Velvet Revolution” glosses over the bravery required by those who openly confronted the state. However, so rapidly was support evaporating that even the loyalty of the police and military could no longer be guaranteed. The Czechoslovak Revolution was to be peacefully “velvet”. On the other hand, the rebels could only draw encouragement from events in neighbouring countries. Emboldened by the expanding possibilities, and legitimised by the masses of people on the streets, Civic Forum and their Slovak counterparts, People Against Violence, could demand ever greater concessions from the government. On November 24th Husak’s successor as President, Milos Jakes resigned. Huge crowds greeted Dubcek and Havel as they appeared together in Prague. A General Strike on November 27th showed that the revolution had spread beyond Prague, beyond the intellectuals and students, to encompass the workers in a national rejection of the regime. In the following days, the Party renounced its right to a leading role and plans were made for free elections. Before the end of the year that had begun with his arrest and imprisonment, Vaclav Havel was elected as President of Czechoslovakia. Romania Romania’s experiences of Communism and of revolution were in many ways unique. The dictator, Nicolae Ceausescu, had succeeded in maintaining a degree of independence from Moscow. His open admiration for Tito and his willingness to criticise the Soviet led invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968 earned him praise from many western leaders. However, his rule descended into the worst excesses of Stalinism with absolute power gathered in Ceausescu’s hands, a personality cult relentlessly exaggerating his genius, megalomaniac construction projects, and corruption backed up by the threat of violence from the Securitate secret police. Within this system even the limited ability, evident in other communist bloc countries, of party leaders to ensure adherence to notions of legality and to moderate any one individual’s excesses were absent. Political survival in Romania depended on absolute loyalty to Ceausescu. Romania’s revolution occurred later than those of its neighbours, in December 1989, and was characterised by its violence. Romania was also the only country in which the Communist leader was executed. The first moves centred on the provincial town of Timisoara where crowds gathered to protest against the persecution of a popular local pastor. Within days the unrest had spread to the capital, Bucharest, where people at a rally addressed by Ceausescu, ostensibly to demonstrate support for the regime, interrupted his speech with boos and chants. Rioting followed, and over a thousand people died in fighting with Securitate forces. Ceausescu and his wife, Elena, fled by helicopter but were arrested by soldiers and after a brief trial, shot. A provisional government, the National Salvation Front, announced the termination of the Communist Party’s leading role and promised to oversee the transition to democracy. The background of many of these new leaders as Communist Party members has led to claims that the Romanian experience was more a coup d’etat than a genuine revolution. However, Romania’s initially faltering steps towards democracy gathered pace and in 2007 Romania acceded to the European Union. Concluding analysis - External vs internal and individuals vs masses The difficulty facing the student seeking to explain the collapse of the communist regimes in 1989 is how to evaluate the relative importance of what historians often describe as internal and external factors. Textbooks written with an international relations, ‘Cold War’ focus, inevitably emphasise the ending of Détente, the more confrontational policies of the New Right leaders Reagan and Thatcher and in particular the sea change that was brought about the arrival of Gorbachev in 1985. There is little doubt that the changed international focus does much to explain the macro-historical features and in particular the timing of the revolution. But the external factors do not explain the micro-historical nature of the revolutions. To understand the nature of each of the revolutions in 1989 and in particular, their differences, as well as their more obvious similarities (why was the transfer of power so painless in Poland but so violent in Romania?) we need to understand the local history and characteristics of the opposition groups which forced the collapse of the regimes in 1989. The communist edifice was crumbling throughout the Eastern Bloc; this was a result of the interplay of both external macro-historical factors and internal micro-historical factors. But the fact that in some states the crumbling edifice needed a concerted shove, whilst in others it was merely a question of picking a route through the rubble, can only be explained in terms of the local context. What about the people? Padraic Kenney and the social revolution Padraic Kenney has argued that are three common explanations for the collapse of communism in 1989. The first and most common involves the role of Gorbachev. The second concerns the deepening economic crisis. The third involves the role of the dissident intellectuals like Havel and Charter 77 in Czechoslovakia and Kuron and KOR in Poland, what we have described as the ‘anti-political’ movement. 'But [he argues] if Soviet reform, economic collapse, and dissent are each essential to grasping some part of the complexity of 1989, they are together incomplete without the story of the social movements of the 1980s... We also don't know why 1989 looked and felt the way it did. For example, a crowd newly and suddenly liberated should be vengeful, even violent. It ought to show distaste for compromise and (at the ballot box) be eager to endorse quick fixes. Anyone familiar with Central Europe will note these attitudes are common today; they were not so in 1989. Instead, gentle, triumphant irony was the order of the day. From the Solidarity election poster showing Gary Cooper in High Noon brandishing a ballot, to the Prague banner reading "Well, you've knocked communism out of our heads, comrades . . . ," to the Hungarian poster showing Leonid Brezhnev and Erich Honecker kissing, the sense of the ridiculous ameliorated the gravity of the change. The people of Central Europe preferred ironic protests to slogans promising extermination of the communists (and there were such voices). They accepted protest that was not only about political and economic power, but about environmental and other issues... To most observers, both inside and outside Central Europe, the revolutions were completely unexpected, in their pace and in their popular nature. Participants in the grassroots activism were less overwhelmed, as the style, mode, language, and goals of society's mass participation in 1989 were an outgrowth of what they had been enacting for several years. For the most part, neither dissident leaders nor reform communists sought to mobilize society (in strikes or demonstrations); the new movements, in contrast, brought the carnival to town. They created the framework, and the language, of the revolutions. People voted, or demonstrated, in part because they had learned how to do so from these movements and accepted (for the moment) their goals. As we pay attention to the carnival, we can learn to think about 1989 without resorting to "miracles," "people power," and "surprise." ' (p 12) EH Carr on the role of the individual in history Importance of the masses ‘as Lenin said: 'Politics begin where the masses are; not where there are thousands, but where there are millions, that is where serious politics begin.' Carlyle’s and Lenin's millions were millions of individuals: there was nothing impersonal about them. Discussions of this question sometimes confuse anonymity with impersonality. People do not cease to be people or individuals individuals, because we do not know their names. Mr Eliot's ' vast, impersonal forces' were the individuals whom Clarendon, a bolder and franker conservative, calls 'dirty people of no name'. These nameless millions were individuals acting more or less unconsciously, together, and constituting a social force. The historian will not in ordinary circumstances need to take cognizance of a single discontented peasant or discontented village. But millions of discontented peasants in thousands of villages are a factor which no historian will ignore…All effective movements have few leaders and a multitude of followers; but this does not mean that the multitude is not essential to their success. Numbers count in history.’ Importance of the individual 'Even today I do not know that we can better Hegel's classic description: The great man of the age is the one who can put into words the will of his age, tell his age what its will is, and accomplish it. What he does is the heart and essence of his age; he actualizes his age …The great man is always representative either of existing forces or of forces which he helps to create by way of challenge to existing authority. But the higher degree of creativity may perhaps be assigned to those great men who, like Cromwell or Lenin, helped to mould the forces which carried them to greatness, rather than to those who, like Napoleon or Bismarck, rode to greatness on the back of already existing forces. …What seems to me essential is to recognize in the great man an outstanding individual who is at once a product and an agent of the historical process, at once the representative and the creator of social forces which change the shape of the world and the thoughts of men.'

End Torture, Rendition and Illegal Detention Abolish Preventive Detention Protect Dissent Restore War Powers Act Limit State Secrets Privilege Stop Warrantless Wiretapping Roll Back Executive Power Related to that: Call on Congress to revoke the Patriot Acts and Revoke the 2007 Defense Authorization Act where it overrides Posse Comitatus and the Insurrection Act. Election Reform - our most vital duty is controlled by unaccountable, untraceable black-box voting machines made by FOR-PROFIT Corporations. Standardize OPEN-SOURCE fully transparent voting solutions, that have both a printed receipt for the voter, and a digital image of every paper ballot immediately uploaded to a public website so that any voter can check that their individual ballot was counted correctly. Reverse all the Last Minute Pardons and Commutations. Don't allow the outgoing President to Preemptively Pardon those within his Administration. Make public and transparent all acts of the former Administration to avoid accountability for their actions. Bush's Incompetent Political Appointees have now been set up in permanent career employees in the upper levels of the federal government. We ask that these be reversed, and if possible stopped before they are complete by injunction. Restore the Ethics Committees in Congress and the Senate, and hold all accountable. Health Care: make sure all children in the USA have same quality healthcare insurance as our members of congress. All Military Veterans, too. Green Sustainable Energy: Start the Sustainable Energy Revolution, by calling on all Americans to sacrifice by cutting their power use by 50% over the next four years. Ask for a Carbon Fuels tax of 50% that will be directed to pay any person who produces sustainable green energy. Carbon Credits: Free Trade: make it FAIR TRADE Restore the FOIA Office of the Ombudsman and make all Federal Government Agencies Completely Transparent http://www.coxwashington.com/blogs/content/shared-blogs/washington/secrecy/entries/2008/02/04/bush_eliminates_foia_ombudsman.html Stop Privatizing the vital government services. BlackWater, 'nuff said. FCC - Restore Media Plurality : stop the auctioning of public airwaves and call for the opening of new rules about public access so that local populations can control their airwaves. Expand public access TV on cable to equal a percentage of total income. TAX for profit stations to supply resources for local non-comercial public access RADIO and TV. Network Neutrality - Make sure all internet providers serve all sites equally, without slowing down alternative voices, or discriminating against the poor and minority groups that can not afford to pay for privileged access to information. Here are links to some of the important things we talked about: The $2-Trillion in EMERGENCY LOANS The San Diego Count Community Coalition Meetup. Watch Zeitgeist Addendum (free online) Another Free Documentary (available thru Blockbuster.com Links to things you should know about: http://www.aurora.ca "At the beginning, I worried for my family, but they are prepared to face any circumstance. I am also prepared for it. I lost my fear like the people did. I'm not afraid of dying, but I'd like to live a bit longer so I can keep on fighting." - Oscar Olivera, Bolivian Activist, Coalition in Defense of Water and Life. Just as blind faith is arrogant and irrational, and the unexamined life is not worth living, so "Rational Self Interest" without ENLIGHTENMENT* is nothing but blind selfishness, essentially amoral and self destructive. Therefore our goal should be lead by example down the path to Enlightened Rational Self Interest.

Join the Peace Resource Center as we welcome organizational partners to lead us in education and discussion around the Criminal Injustice System. Featuring: People Over Profits San Diego (POPSD) has been engaged in criminal justice organizing and has focused on the problem of mass incarceration in our society and the damage it continues to inflict on communities of color. They are also involved in efforts against the privatization of correctional facilities. Their membership and organizational agenda are reflective of the Barrio Logan neighborhood in San Diego where they hold their open weekly Wednesday night meetings. POPSD will discuss what the current trends are with the criminal justice system in San Diego and what impact these trends are having on people of color.Community Assistance Support Team (CAST) plays a critical role in gang intervention work, as well as providing exceptional support to victims of crime. They rely heavily on the participation and the wisdom of local clergy for this work and this makes us grounded in City Heights and South Eastern San Diego. CAST will discuss their current work that includes violence prevention for youth and young adults, training for law enforcement, mobile response team, and direct support for victims and families of crimes. Darwin Fishman, Phd, Community Review Board and Yusef Miller, Community Outreach Representative, CAIR-SD will lead a discussion about opportunities to become involved in criminal justice reform work and what we can specifically do in San Diego. They will open up the floor to allow for all of us to share stories and ask questions about best practices and effective strategies for criminal justice reform work in San Diego.

Broadway and Front St. Tuesday, February 14, 2017 Fed chair has blunt message for Trump Janet Yellen tells Congress that the fiscal policy emanating from the White House should put the nation on a sustainable path. Full text of her remarks » ‘They have him by the balls’: The internet pours mockery on Sean Spicer’s claim that Trump is ‘tough’ on Russia The Senate just voted to confirm a former Goldman Sachs banker known as the "Foreclosure King" to run our economy as Treasury Secretary. Every Democrat except one voted no on Trump's nominee Steve Mnuchin -- an important show of unity against Wall Street and Trump. This should be rewarded. Senators Dianne Feinstein and Kamala D. Harris voted no on Steve Mnuchin. Can you call them to say thank you for opposing Wall Street in this key vote? YES -- I'll call Sens. Feinstein and Harris to say thanks for opposing Wall Street banker Steve Mnuchin -- and to say keep it up! Show me the number and a script. NO -- But I'll chip in $3 to run TV ads holding accountable the most vulnerable 2018 Senate Republican (Dean Heller from Nevada, a state with massive foreclosures) for voting with Wall Street against his constituents. The one Democrat to vote yes was West Virginia's Joe Manchin. Right now, PCCC members in his state are calling him to express extreme disappointment. Weeks ago, tonight's show of Democratic strength against Wall Street was not expected. The PCCC was the first group to run TV ads in key Democratic Senate states calling on senators to oppose Mnuchin. Every Democrat in these states voted no on Mnuchin! (Thank you to thousands of PCCC members who helped put these ads on the air.) We also aired TV ads in key Republican states. They all voted with Wall Street against their constituents. It's important we hold them accountable -- so please chip in $3 to our TV ad making clear that vulnerable Sen. Dean Heller (R-Nevada) voted against his constituents. And it's also important that Democratic senators see that their constituents approve when they oppose Wall Street -- so please thank Sens. Feinstein and Harris today. Click here to make a quick call. Thanks for making your voice heard, and being a bold progressive. -- Adam Green, PCCC co-founder Monday, February 13, 2017 [SDCPJ] Fwd: Gentle reminder about important Board of Supervisors meeting this Wednesday on CREP for San Diego County Subject: Gentle reminder about important BOS meeting this Wednesday on CREP for San Diego County Dear friends, below is what I sent off to the Board of Supervisors.

A major component of this plan is Community Choice Energy. Please vote in favor of conducting a feasibility study of CCE. Better yet, if possible vote outright to support implementing Community Choice Energy in San Diego County.It is imperative that steps are taken as soon as possible to lessen the worse impacts of climate change and to protect air and water quality.

Even when i click "poll now" the poll does not seem to run. If i open the configuration of the new job and save, the polling starts to work. Any ideas what the problem is? I am happy to provide logs but i am unsure which loggers to use? This is causing major problems for us because we have automated job creation to copy a template job. At the moment all these jobs need to be manually re-saved in order to run which is causing much delay.

Capitol Police received warnings on Jan. 5 about social media posts discussing an attack on the U.S. Capitol, according to emails obtained by CNN. The warnings came from a rep for artificial intelligence company Dataminr, who said they had detected a number of troubling posts, including one on internet message board 8kun, which said “we will storm government buildings, kill cops, kill security guards, kill federal employees and agents.” Hours later, the same Dataminr rep got back in touch with Capitol Police to flag comments on Parler about storming the Capitol. However, internal communications indicate that Capitol Police didn’t consider the threats credible. According to one Senate source, after months of investigation, they are “stunned” at the way that Capitol Police ignored warning signs about the Jan. 6 insurrection. The heads of other law enforcement agencies have all blamed each other for dropping the ball. CHEAT SHEET TOP 10 RIGHT NOW - 1 - 2 - 4 - 5 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10

Yeah, and Trump might carry New Jersey! In every election cycle, there's always a state that's been reliably in one party's column for years that the other party talks up the possibility of flipping. For years, Republicans would float their chance to carry the Garden State—but that hope never came to fruition This time, it's the Biden campaign, with a helping hand from the liberal media, that is suggesting Joe just might carry Texas. Check out the mash-up for a concoction of comments by Morning Joe panelists today. Both in their own right, and passing along "insider" info from the Biden campaign, the theme is that Texas might go blue tonight. This is quite different from two years ago, when they panicked Beto O'Rourke would lose in Texas by ten points. Anything's possible, I suppose. But as someone who lived in Texas for most of the last decade, I'd wager a pound of brisket from the Hard Eight BBQ in Stephenville that it's not gonna happen! Here's the transcript. MSNBC Morning Joe 11/3/20 7:37 am ET WILLIE GEIST: Hearing from David Plouffe [Dem consultant] and others: don't take your eyes off of Texas. . . . EUGENE ROBINSON: Tonight, I am going to be watching Texas. . . . PANELIST: Texas looks really interesting. . . . JOHN HEILEMANN: I think, very much, on the basis of everything I know right now, that Texas could very well go blue. . . . KASIE HUNT: President Trump has a potential real problem in Texas . . . It really is very much in play. . . . JOE SCARBOROUGH: That is a message that the Biden campaign sent out very quietly to several people last night: keep an eye on Texas. . . . JONATHAN LEMIRE: Some senior Democratic strategists have even said: keep an eye on Texas. . . . ROBINSON: But I will watch Texas. Because it just kind of feels like something's happening there.
