My Thoughts on Serena Williams …. “🇺🇸🎾 Nothing Will Make Her Any Less of the Giant that She Is 🎾🇺🇸 …. “

~~September 11, 2018~~ 

CAN NEVER TAKE AWAY HER SUPERPOWERS

You all know what happened

She is coming back after her pregnancy, post a life-threatening complication after developing a pulmonary embolism, a controversy about her compression ‘catsuit’ (custom-made by Nike), her decision to wear a tutu and the high stakes of the event.

To add insult to injury, she was fined $17,000.

And then, Mark Knight, Australian cartoonist, decided to rub salt in the wound!

I know what I think about her!

The 2018 US Open final between Serena Williams and Naomi Osaka will be remembered for all the wrong reasons

The match was guaranteed to make history no matter what.

Williams was gunning for her 24th Grand Slam tournament win, a number that would have tied the all-time record for the most Grand Slam singles tournament wins in history.

And Osaka was hoping to be the first Haitian-Japanese player in history to win a Grand Slam.

In the end, Osaka defeated Williams 6-2, 6-4, ensuring the latter – but her achievement was overshadowed by what happened in the match.

IOTD …. “🖕🏽Image of the Day, Very Special Edition 🖕🏽 …. and Another Short Video, Part 2 …. “!!

WHAT HAPPENED TO FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION?

IT HAD TO BE A WOMAN

I’ve used this picture before.

I believed in the power of it and my feelings reflect hers without doubt. If I had the opportunity of doing this, I would’ve done the same.

She continues to be a ‘shero’ to me.

Hang in there, Juli Briskman, better things will come your way!

The picture, snapped by a White House photographer traveling with the president as he left his golf course in Sterling, Va., went viral almost immediately. News outlets picked up the story when it appeared in a White House pool report. Late-night talk show hosts told jokes about the encounter and people on social media began hailing the unidentified woman as a “she-ro,” using the hashtag #Her2020.
The woman’s name is Juli Briskman.

Her employer, government contractor Akima LLC, wasn’t so happy about the photo. They fired her over it.

Asked what she was thinking when she saw Trump’s motorcade roll up next to her, Briskman said it was a gut reaction to flip him off.
“He was passing by and my blood just started to boil,” she said. “I’m thinking, DACA recipients are getting kicked out. He pulled ads for open enrollment in Obamacare. Only one-third of Puerto Rico has power. I’m thinking, he’s at the damn golf course again.”
“I flipped off the motorcade a number of times,” she added.

Briskman, a Democrat, said she plans to look for a new job with an advocacy group that she believes in, like Planned Parenthood or PETA.

“In some ways, I’m doing better than ever,” she said. “I’m angry about where our country is right now. I am appalled.

This was an opportunity for me to say something.”

Despite getting fired, she said she has no regrets about the attention her public show of displeasure with Drumpf received.

In fact, she said she’s happy to be an image of protest that resonates with many Americans.

ROYAL PROTOCOL

The only reason I’m sharing this is because there’s a definite double standard.

I don’t see anything wrong in following the customs of any country anyone follows when visiting as a leader of another country.

‘The amateur Obama … “

My opinion is

‘don’t dirty the water if you are going to drink it later’.

Then, again. I’m sure he never thought he’d be ‘the Prez‘!!

STOLEN SCOTUS SEAT

Does Congress really think that the people they serve have a short attention span or an attention deficit disorder?

Do they think we are stupid?

Don’t they know that there is written and visual evidence of what they say and do?

Perfect example depicted!

Mitch, I saw you, I heard you.

Double standards, right?

Not so fast!!

~The Supreme Court stands at a crossroads~

As the court prepares to hear its first cases of the 2016-2017 term next week, Senate Republicans’ unprecedented blockade of Chief Judge Merrick Garland’s nomination has resulted in a state of dysfunction at our nation’s highest court.

This upcoming term demonstrates both the incredible importance of the Court and how it has been dangerously hobbled by the lack of a ninth justice.

Democratic senator accused the GOP of “theft” for blocking President Barack Obama’s nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court so it can be filled by the Drumpf administration.

“We really have to pay attention to the Supreme Court seat.

The seat that is sitting empty is being stolen,” Sen. Jeff Merkley told MSNBC’s Chris Hayes on Thursday night, January 27.

“It’s being stolen from the Obama administration and the construct of our Constitution. And it’s being delivered to an administration that has no right to fill it.”

President Barack Obama stood in the White House Rose Garden back in March to announce his nominee, Merrick Garland, for the Supreme Court seat emptied by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia.

But Republicans who control the Senate have refused to grant Garland a hearing, saying it should be up to Obama’s successor to pick a replacement for Scalia, who died in February 2016.

Thoughts for today, #431 …. “The Bundy Takeover and the Standing Rock Tribe …. Can you see the double standards?

~~October 28, 2016~~ 

DOUBLE STANDARDS 

No doubt!

I remember when the Bundy ‘take-over’ was going on.

I even had a ‘discussion’ with a fellow Facebooker.

Yesterday, the ‘not guilty’ verdit came down.

They must really be ‘happy campers’.

In the meantime, flash to North Dakota …

Where’s the mainstream media?

I think they are distracted by this crazy election cycle.

Anyway, who cares?

It’s only ‘red people’, not ‘white people’, right?

Give the whites more power!

NOT!!

Bundy Brothers Acquitted in Takeover of Oregon Wildlife Refuge

By COURTNEY SHERWOOD and KIRK JOHNSON

Armed anti-government protesters led by Ammon and Ryan Bundy were acquitted Thursday, October 27, of federal conspiracy and weapons charges stemming from the takeover of a federally owned wildlife sanctuary in Oregon last winter.

The surprise acquittals of all seven defendants in Federal District Court were a blow to government prosecutors, who had argued that the Bundys and five of their followers used force and threats of violence to occupy the reserve.

But the jury appeared swayed by the defendants’ contention that they were protesting government overreach and posed no threat to the public.

DIXIE CHICKS

That Time Republicans Destroyed The Dixie Chicks Over The Group’s Opinion

By ovelarde

Hopefully you remember the time when The Dixie Chicks spoke up about being ashamed of George W. Bush as their President.  Do you remember what happened to them the next day and how the Republicans and other conservatives acted?

Well, here is what happened 

Their music was banned from playing in major country radio stations.  They were not invited to major country music events and awards.  They were booed at their own concerts.  George W. Bush said, and I’m paraphrasing here, that free speech has consequences.  The Dixie Chicks have been in exiled every since.

Why did this happened?

All of this happened because they spoke their mind and showed their values.  Values that probably many here supported but others in the other side didn’t.
