The “alleged” murder of Khashoggi means only one thing.  To the point:  “That’s what kings do!” Despotism should be in the books.

That’s why people got rid of them.

Obviously, the 25th Amendment or impeachment is “off the table.” Likewise, character is not relevant to leadership.  Neither is truth.  Thus, truth is invalid.  Hypocrisy is the cotter pin of politics and control of people. The wheel of justice wobbles towards a catastrophic failure of consensus. The vehicle becomes uncontrollable. Crash is inevitable, if not imminent.

“There must be someway out of here!”

I’ll keep Impeachment and the Constitution on the table, like the Sword of Damocles, swinging always to decapitate lies, hypocracy, ignorance and demons, democratically.

By the way, anybody who wants to should kneel when the National Anthem is played at sporting events. Life or limb or mind loss in professional sport (it’s nothing more than a fucking game for $$,$$$,$$$ and a spectator’s emotional charge) is disgustingly profane and a defilement of life and limb for emotion and materialism.

Anyone who “enjoys” it should condescend and pray for forgiveness.  For those who actively engage in the sport, supplication to one’s deity for protection (as superstitious as that is) should be first and foremost before every contest.

If you don’t understand what I’m writing (and thinking and trying to say), you are an idolater, holding to your explicit bias. Understand, if you can, that i do not, am not and cannot be. That’s the essence of individuality. Hear me, oh land of the brave, home of the free! I didn’t eat the apple from the God damned tree!!

How can this happen?  I no longer believe anything … politically …  I believe only what I know:  Mourn the loss of dignity, mourn the loss of principles, mourn the loss of values, mourn the loss of realization.

The president calls it treason.  As usual, he’s wrong: It’s subversion.

When a leader lacks principles and values, those under his command, likely, embrace unprincipled action justified by the leader’s behavior.  A leader’s actions model emulated behavior, as what he or she does speaks louder than words.

Resignation and explanation: that’s what it should have been. The anonymity of resistance is a precursor of terrorism. Beware: you know not from where such an attack was launched.

1.  It’s NOT about Colin Kapernick. You know who he is and he’s explained why he did what he did.  I support his right to do so.
2. The business of government is not business. It’s leadership of people.
3. EDUCATION — not indoctrination, training, not faith, and certainly NOT political persuasion —  is an absolute requirement for the freedom and progress of humanity.

This is NOT a crisis of the Constitution. It’s the unintended consequences of the abuse of authority, plain and simple. Mr. Trump is the model. I do not expect anything less from those whom he leads.

My neighbor said he was cutting the chord and getting rid of his landline muttering, “I’ve had this number for 40 years and I’m done with AT & T.  Too many scam and robo calls!”

“It might stop working tomorrow, or anytime!” he said. “Use my mobile number.”

Three days later, I got a call from him.

“Hey, I thought you were going to get rid of the landline. Looks like it’s still working,” I said looking at the mantissa on my home phone.

“Yea,” he said. “I still have it. I’m over 70 years old now. How in the hell would I find my cell phone if I got rid of the landline!”

Trumpetry -> Impeach

Consent. What does it mean? It means a leader cannot rule without a follower’s commitment. Thus, “consent” and “commit” are bonded pairs of “command.”

When “commit” is not bounded by consent, command deteriorates.  When “commanding” the behavior of others, committed non-deviance evaporates without consent. Thus, even if a command is initially followed, the follower changes what is to be done, with resulting unanticipated or undesired consequences.

Don’t miss the point:  “ruling” is but facet of “leadership.”  Making a decision about what to do  is legislative. It’s not the same as implementing (executing) a decision.

In politics, What truly is “leadership?”

N.R.A. (normal rational analysis)

Parents who have weapons must control the use of those weapons, or face allegations of civil gross negligence judgement or penal gross negligence or recklessness charges.

Someone must be accountable. Shouldn’t the owner of the weapon have some responsibility for its use?

As I recall, in the event of school vandalism the parents of the child caught vandalizing must pay for damage done to school property.

Peace.

At a certain age you learn to crawl
And talk
Then you age
Standing in the sand of time
Hands on walls to walk

E played in the fish net of love
Strife in the middle of life
In waters was E,
E like a lamb
Caught in the fish net of love

This morning, after checking the news, I realized it probably didn’t matter.

Real time awareness is not recorded video. Life experience is, simply, the story. Media is the story re-sold. By the time you read or hear it, you’re at least six steps from reality.
