~~June 9, 2018~~ 

HEAVEN’S NOT TOO FAR AWAY

~Season 2018 of  America’s Got Talent has begun~

I finally started catching up with the recorded episodes.

This one caught my heart!

Listen to their intro and catch the lyrics.

As an interesting note, Mel B was emotional about it. 

She mentioned that she had lost her father to cancer some time before and explained that the song felt as it her father was speaking to her.

Hope you enjoy it!

Ellen DeGeneres …. “🇺🇸 Sits Down with Waffle House Hero James Shaw Jr. 🇺🇸 …. “!!

~~May 5, 2018~~ 

ONE BRAVE MAN

Ellen calls James Shaw Jr. a ‘brave man,’ introduces him to Dwyane Wade

As far as I am concerned this was a better way, a better setting and better people to recognize the bravery of James Shaw, Jr.

There was no need for the NRA or the utter idiot in the Oval.

This brave man is better known, better regarded and rewarded because of his deeds.

The important people are with him!

On Wednesday’s episode of “Ellen,” May 2, host Ellen DeGeneres sat down with James Shaw Jr. – the 29-year-old Nashvillian now known as the “Waffle House Hero” after wrestling a gun away from a shooter at a Waffle House in Antioch, Tenn.

During his interview with DeGeneres, Shaw recounted the events of the April 22 attack, which left four dead.

“Wow … You’re a really brave man,” DeGeneres said, and her audience broke into applause.

She also asked Shaw how he felt about being called a hero.

“I don’t have a problem with it,” he said. “It’s just if you’re in that same situation, I want  you to know that a regular guy did it, and I want you to emulate that same thing, and know you have that fire inside yourself.”

The two discussed the GoFundMe campaign Shaw had set up for funeral expenses for the victims, as well as the campaign for Shaw and his daughter set up by journalist Yashar Ali.

Puerto Rico …. “🇵🇷 The Privatization Of An Island …. ‘Shock Doctrine’ at Work 🇵🇷 …. “!!

UNDER PRESSURE FROM WASHINGTON, DC

PUERTO RICO HAS STARTED A PRIVATIZATION PROCESS

Privatization and austerity are hitting a country rooted in systemic inequality

SHOCK DOCTRINE

This process was applied to Puerto Rico, my country, a long time ago.

It was progressing at a mostly unnoticed pace by those Puerto Ricans who weren’t ‘woke’ yet. There was a ‘hint’ of this process when the PROMESA Bill was signed into law.

The Puerto Rico Oversight, Management, and Economic Stability Act (PROMESA) is a US federal law that established an oversight board, a process for restructuring debt, and expedited procedures for approving critical infrastructure projects in order to combat the Puerto Rican government-debt crisis. 

~Wikipedia~

Hurricane María accelerated the process.

How to stop it?

I don’t know. I don’t think anyone knows!

~The Shock Doctrine~
The strategy by the world’s economic elites of imposing an extremely neoliberal economic regime on communities they control, using some form of shock: a natural disaster, a coup d’etat, a war, a financial crisis, etc.

Once the community has been crippled by this first shock, the economic “reforms” are imposed suddenly, creating a secondary blow.

Then, as the community begins to recover and fight back, the authorities use torture and police brutality to literally shock the community a third time.

~SOURCE~

http://www.urbandictionary.com

In THE SHOCK DOCTRINE, Naomi Klein explodes the myth that the global free market triumphed democratically. Exposing the thinking, the money trail and the puppet strings behind the world-changing crises and wars of the last four decades.

The Shock Doctrine is the gripping story of how America’s “free market” policies have come to dominate the world – through the exploitation of disaster-shocked people and countries.

(Very interesting and gripping book. I highly recommend it.)

IT STILL HURTS!! 

A picture says a thousand words …. “🇺🇸 This one, a cartoon, definitely screams, #51 …. Transgender Military Service Ban …. Vicious 🇺🇸 …. “!!

~~July 26, 2017~~ 

VICIOUS, HEARTLESS ATTACK

This sorry excuse of a human being has always been a heartless, empty shell who throws away his personal opportunity to occupy a space in this universe.

Thought I didn't need any other reason, this action solidifies it for me.

I was never in the military but I worked with the Veterans Administration for almost 28 years. I know what these guys go through.

No need to add more burden.

You are a worthless 'human' and you prove it daily!

Drumpf Kicks Transgender Persons Out Of The Military And Becomes The Most Despised President Ever

Drumpf announced on Wednesday morning, July 26, that transgender individuals would no longer be allowed to serve in the military. With one swoop, Drumpf went overwhelmingly against popular opinion and solidified his place as the most out of touch and despised president in history.

Trump’s move wasn’t about victory or the military.

It was all about throwing his slipping base a bone.

Drumpf is falling faster than a rock in the polls, so he is doing everything that he can to hold on to his declining base of support.
A majority of Americans oppose discriminatory laws such as bathroom bills towards transgender individuals. Drumpf’s move is a step backward for civil rights, and another effort to erase the progress and achievements of the Obama presidency.

The LGBTQ community warned that Drumpf would take this type of action if he won the election, and their warnings are being proven correct. Drumpf isn’t trying to make America great. He never intended to.

He is trying to undo progress and take America back to an uglier time.

It won’t work. Progress always wins in the end.

BRANDON ROGERS 

I’ve been catching up to my recorded America’s Got Talent.

I was saddened to see this audition and learn of Brandon’s tragic death in an automobile accident.

Sad loss for his family, his patients and for us who will miss the possibility of him growing into his own as a singer.

May he rest in peace!

Brandon, who died in a car accident sang Stevie Wonder’s track ‘Ribbon In The Sky’ for Mel and her fellow judges Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum and Howie Mandel on July 11th Tuesday’s night’s episode.

His audition was a huge success and even earned him a standing ovation from the judges and the audience.

After Brandon sang, Simon told him:

‘Your vocal work is stunning. You are one of the best singers we’ve had in the competition so far.’

The show paid tribute to Brandon with in a statement before his audition was shown.
