Not Good . . .

(from https://crooksandliars.com/2018/07/maddow-official-helsinki-video-and)
". . . The White House literally deleted this question and the corresponding answer from the official record: Reuters reporter, Jeff Mason asked Putin: "Did you want President Trump to win the election and did you direct any of your officials to help him do that?". . . Putin responded: “Yes, I did. Because he talked about bringing the U.S./Russia relationship back to normal,.". . . THE WHITE HOUSE IS LITERALLY TRYING TO ERASE HISTORY. . . As George Orwell said in his dystopian novel, 1984: "The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes & ears. It was their final, most essential command" - Orwell, "1984". . . "

Next Time . . .

. . . you see a whacked-out meme on FB (or elsewhere on the web), spouting hate or (what seem to be) extremely aggravating 'facts' about a population of which you know very little (or possibly nothing), PLEASE do not post it (or re-tweet, or email all your friends). Instead, do some research.

(One option is https://www.snopes.com/ - but I would recommend looking at two or three in addition). You may just find that the meme that so stirred your emotions actually contained false information. Plus, you may actually learn something.

The Party . . .

(from 1984 by George Orwell)

" . . If there was hope, it must lie in the proles, because only there, in those swarming disregarded masses, eighty-five per cent of the population of Oceania, could the force to destroy the Party ever be generated. the Party could not be overthrown from within. Its enemies, if it had any enemies, had no way of coming together or even of identifying one another. Even if the legendary Brotherhood existed, as just possibly it might, it was inconceivable that its members could ever assemble in larger numbers than twos and threes. Rebellion meant a look in the eyes, an inflection of the voice; at the most, an occasional whispered word. But the proles, if only they could somehow become conscious of their own strength, would have no need to conspire. They needed only to rise up and shake themselves like a horse shaking off flies. If they chose they could blow the Party to pieces tomorrow morning. Surely sooner or later it must occur to them to do it? And yet - !. . . "

Dear . . .

. . . Elected Official,

Do you still doubt the efficacy of invoking the 25th Amendment of the Constitution, or have you grown too accustomed to such behavior from elected officials?

Donald J. Trump✔@realDonaldTrump

The Fake News Media wants so badly to see a major confrontation with Russia, even a confrontation that could lead to war. They are pushing so recklessly hard and hate the fact that I’ll probably have a good relationship with Putin. We are doing MUCH better than any other country!

6:59 AM - Jul 19, 2018

Donald J. Trump✔@realDonaldTrump

The Fake News Media is going Crazy! They make up stories without any backup, sources or proof. Many of the stories written about me, and the good people surrounding me, are total fiction. Problem is, when you complain you just give them more publicity. But I’ll complain anyway!

6:37 AM - Jul 19, 2018

Donald J. Trump✔@realDonaldTrump

The Summit with Russia was a great success, except with the real enemy of the people, the Fake News Media. I look forward to our second meeting so that we can start implementing some of the many things discussed, including stopping terrorism, security for Israel, nuclear........

9:24 AM - Jul 19, 2018

Donald J. Trump✔@realDonaldTrump

....proliferation, cyber attacks, trade, Ukraine, Middle East peace, North Korea and more. There are many answers, some easy and some hard, to these problems...but they can ALL be solved!

Nearly 800 mental health professionals have joined a coalition asserting that they are so alarmed by Trump’s mental health that they feel a duty to warn the public. (Jonathan Ernst / Reuters)

Please do something to rid our nation of this problem.

Careful . . .

Those nasty memes again!

I assure you that I am in neither political 'camp' but I am a great fan of the facts. Regarding the one tying Hillary Clinton to Russia through uranium, I would suggest anyone trying to make a point  should refrain from using the Trump playbook, because that is one source that contains a dearth of factual information. 

( from https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/hillary-clinton-uranium-russia-deal/)

". . . Among the ways these accusations stray from the facts is in attributing a power of veto or approval to Secretary Clinton that she simply did not have. Clinton was one of nine cabinet members and department heads that sit on the CFIUS, and the secretary of the treasury is its chairperson. CFIUS members are collectively charged with evaluating proposed foreign acquisitions for potential national security issues, then turning their findings over to the president. By law, the committee can’t veto a transaction; only the president can. 

All nine federal agencies were required to approve the Uranium One transaction before it could go forward. According to The New York Times, Clinton may not have even directly participated in the decision. Then-Assistant Secretary of State Jose Fernandez, whose job it was to represent the State Dept. on CFIUS, said Clinton “never intervened” in committee matters. Clinton herself has said she wasn’t personally involved. . ."
