Federal Hurricane María Response in Puerto Rico …. ‘🇵🇷 An Unsung Success …. NOT!! 🇵🇷 …. “!!


BestJob

~~September 12, 2018~~

BEST JOB EVER

NOT!! 

Believe you me when I say unequivocally that this isn’t true.

THIS IS TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY FALSE!

It’s a false statement from a delusional, pathological liar, narcissistic, evil, vile ‘man’ who ha no conscience and a vapid soul!

“So-called President Drumpf calling Puerto Rico response an unsung success is “a level of delusion that must be checked by those around him and by Congress,” warns @ChrisCuomo

Words from a dear friend in Puerto Rico who lived through Hurricane María and its aftermath

Speechless, angry, hurt, dazed, depressed, outraged.

To say that the federal government’s intervention during Hurricane María was a success is to insult all of those who suffered thru months of darkness, lack of basic necessities, homelessness and loss of loved ones.
More than half of FEMA officials were not certified, which means many of those who applied for help were denied due to a lack of knowledge on their part.

Containers which sat at port, waiting for inspection, as if there was the most remote possibility of guns or explosives in them. A lack of a coordinated plan to distribute essentials. Not one temporary bridge put up by National Guard or Reserve members, (who do this on regular basis in other countries during their summer trainings) in areas where entire communities or towns were completely cut off from help and supplies.

Among other situations.

To use the Island as an example of a successful mission of rescue is an insult to it’s citizens (note I don’t even bother mentioning U. S. Citizens), to those who graciously and generously helped with donations and still are on the Island, rebuilding homes for the less fortunate. To still see so many blue tarps as roofs is depressing, knowing most are senior citizens who can barely get by and pay for food and meds, much less repair with the ridiculously jacked up prices of building materials.
A horrible thought of what may happen in the Carolinas, Virginia and it’s residents.

My fervent prayers for your safety and that you find comfort after the storm.

~~Surreptitious Video Offers Peek At Impact Of Drumpf Border Policy~~

Rachel Maddow

~~Published on Jun 25, 2018~~

Rachel Maddow shares an exclusive look at the first non-government video from inside a facility that serves children who have been taken from their parents by the Drumpf administration’s “zero tolerance” border policy.

MSNBC 

RedLineBA former employee at the Cayuga Centers facility in East Harlem has leaked footage of herself comforting a tearful migrant girl longing for her mother.
The child – taken from her mother in April – weeps into her arm as an unidentified staffer can be heard coaxing out of her what happened to her family at the U.S.-Mexico border. The heartbreaking clip aired Monday night on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” and is one of the first candid looks from inside a federally-funded charity tasked with caring for migrant children, some of whom were taken from their families while crossing the border.

Marco Antonio Muñoz

THERE’S BLOOD IN AMERICAN HANDS

We knew that; we have known it all along.

At least before there was an effort to keep this fact under wraps, I think.

At this time, it’s all out there in the open.

The ‘ugly American” has no qualms in showing how they really are.

They are conquerors, imperialists, owners, militaristic, abusers, thieves, takers, deviant, opportunistic, amoral, killers.

They have no moral compass to impose on any other country of this world.

I’m beginning to think there never was one!

The mask has come off for the whole world to see.

There is no doubt now, if there ever was any!

A Honduran father separated from his wife and child suffered a breakdown at a Texas jail and killed himself in a padded cell last month, according to Border Patrol agents and an incident report filed by sheriff’s deputies.

The death of Marco Antonio Muñoz, 39, has not been publicly disclosed by the Department of Homeland Security, and it did not appear in any local news accounts. But according to a copy of a sheriff’s department report obtained by The Washington Post, Muñoz was found on the floor of his cell May 13 in a pool of blood with an item of clothing twisted around his neck.

Starr County sheriff’s deputies recorded the incident as a “suicide in custody.”

Muñoz’s death occurred not long after the Drumpf administration began implementing its ­“zero-tolerance” crackdown on illegal migration, measures that include separating parents from their children and the threat of criminal prosecution for anyone who enters the United States unlawfully.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE 

We are the majority!

I was watching Lawrence O’Donnell’s show last night, January 12.

I share this because it gives me a bit of hope.

His words and information gave me some solace.

I thought the country had chosen this inept, idiotic man-child.

Now it seems it was Russia all along, among other things.

Sad to see the country heading this way.

The numbers show that the majority of Americans aren’t happy with Mr. Donald.

These numbers don’t lie!

A Quinnipiac Poll shows majorities of Americans don’t think he will govern well.

‘He will take the oath of office in one week a weaker politician than he was on election night’!

Get ready!

It will be a bumpy ride!!

THE UNTHINKABLE AND UNAVOIDABLE

It happened.

There are no ‘if’s or but’s’ about it.

This is a done deal.

No way around it.

I watched The Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell last Thursday, December 22.

Michael Moore was his guest that night.

His segment was impressive.

Here’s only but a part of it.

I wish I could have found all of it.

Anyway, here’s the plan Mr. Moore lays out for this new year.

Michael Moore’s 5-Point Plan to Combat Trump in 2017

Well-known and loved liberal mind Michael Moore appeared on MSNBC to explain his five-point plan to resist Donald Trump in 2017.

Moore has already made waves several times since the election, most notably with his plan to immediately have Donald Trump impeached, but he has come back to the the public with a level-headed and practical way everyone can move into the new year with a plan – and hope.

Visit your Congressional representative, whether in the House or in the Senate.

(Moore reminds those watching that Congress is in recess, and all representatives will be home.)

Insist that the Democratic National Committee appoint leaders who fall within the progressive spectrum.

blinemm-sbline

Form your very own rapid-response team.

(This is explained as a team made up of  neighbors, friends, or family who will be part of a text, call, or Facebook tree designed to prompt immediate response to Trump by contacting representatives, applying social media pressure, etc. The goal? To make sure your voices are heard.)

Plan to be a part of a protest taking place during Trump’s inauguration weekend.

Have a Plan B – as bad as you think it’s going to be, it’s actually going to be worse.

(His behavior since the election, coupled with his cabinet picks have given us a “coming attraction.” Be prepared).

~Self-indulgent Trump embraces the permanent campaign~

If it seemed as if Trump was returning to campaign mode yesterday, December 1,there’s a good reason. Indeed, the problem is that Trump never actually left campaign mode.

But there doesn’t appear to be anything in the American tradition similar to what Donald Trump did yesterday:

he held a public rally for the purpose of celebrating himself, his election victory, and all the amazing things he intends to do once he takes office.

SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE …. SECOND PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

I’ve been following SNL simply because of the videos that have come out on YouTube and the SNL Facebook Page.

They are simply hilarious!

Kate McKinnon is amazing. She had been ‘playing’ Hillary for a while.

When Alec Baldwin joined the cast, it became even better.

They did the first presidential debate, the VP debate and the second debate.

All to ‘die’ laughing!

Laughter is the best medicine, I’ve always said.

That’s the only way you can go through this incredibly crazy election cycle.

The best part was Mr. Trump response, through his Twitter account, to last Saturday’s skit!

Enjoy!

~Trump’s beef with SNL is no laughing matter~

Nothing says Donald Trump has the judgment and temperament to be President of the United States like tweeting at 7:14 on Sunday morning that he thinks “Saturday Night Live” should be canceled.
But there was Trump, just 24 days before the election, composing yet another unhinged tweet as most Americans were still sleeping:

“Watched ‘Saturday Night Live‘ hit job on me.

Time to retire the boring and unfunny show.

Alec Baldwin’s portrayal stinks.

Media rigging election!”

Over and done.

I felt apprehensive as I waited for the first debate, I must confess.

I watched the full 90 minutes.

By the time about 20 minutes had gone by, I was at peace, breathing much easier.

I knew what was going to happen.

He unraveled, she stood steadfast.

Yes, Secretary Clinton was the winner.

It’s not my judgement, it’s the ‘peoples’ judgement.

I have my choice.

It’s always interesting to see other people’s take.

When there’s humor, it’s even better.
