DOUG FORD IS LYING SO OFTEN I THINK HE’S PURPOSELY TRYING TO CATCH TRUMP
Watch Here April 17, 2019
In the nine months since being elected Doug Ford has…
Cut funding to Ontario University students
Cut funding to health services
Cut funding to public education
Cut funding to autism students
Sent sex education back to the 1950’s.
Is trying to block any climate change regulation
Fired the Ontario Environmental Commissioner
Attempted to sell and build in the Green belt
Attempted to install his own OPP chief to essentially create his own police department
Eliminated the minimum wage hike
Insists caucus members stand and cheer for party members or they will be cast out
Cut funding to overdose prevention sites
Is laying off teachers at an astounding rate despite his June proclamation that not one person would lose their job.
Is increasing public school class sizes, falsely claiming that it makes education better
Is using taxpayer money to fund his ad campaign against the Federal Liberals carbon tax.
Is accused of illegal lobbying
Lies constantly
Wants to plaster anti-Trudeau stickers on all gas pumps
And wants to change Ontario license plates because apparently in his dreams he is making them.
That’s a lot of malpractice, incompetence and corruption in a very short period of time
THE WEEK FOR DONALD TRUMP—SUBPOENAS, INVESTIGATIONS AND THE CLEAR ONSET OF DEMENTIA
Watch Here April 8, 2019
So, let’s look back at the week that was for Donald Trump
Subpoenas were served to the White House for overruling security clearance denials for 25 members of the administration, including Jared Kushner
Subpoenas were prepared for the Mueller report to be fully released to Congress and will be served if the Attorney General does not comply in short order
The Democrats have demanded six years of Trump’s tax returns from the Internal Revenue Service
There are seven ongoing investigations looking into corruption at the Trump inaugural
A Chinese woman, a suspected member of Chinese Intelligence, was caught at Mar a lago with a bag full of spy equipment.
Investigators who worked with Bob Mueller are publicly disputing the Barr Memo’s assertion that the president did nothing wrong.
Democrats are amazed at the number of whistleblowers coming forward to accuse the Trump administration of incompetence and corruption.
And Trump is mispronouncing more words than ever before. Some nurses who care for Alzheimer’s patients say these are signs of the onset of dementia.
I have to say, I’m looking forward to this week.
WILLIAM BARR IS NO STRANGER TO PRESIDENTIAL COVER-UPS
Watch Here March 26, 2019
On Christmas Eve 1992 then outgoing president George Bush Senior took the advice of his Attorney General and pardoned the six members of the Reagan Administration charged with crimes in the Iran-Contra Affair.
Lawrence Welsh, the independent prosecutor in the case, said. "It demonstrates that powerful people with powerful allies can commit serious crimes in high office, deliberately abusing the public trust without consequences,"
The Attorney General was intent on protecting the Republican president and the Republican party. That man was William Barr.
Now, 27 years later Barr is involved in another presidential cover up, again placing the president and the republican party above the law. His memo does not summarize the Mueller Report , instead it is an opinion piece and he simply cherry-picked the Report to support his conclusion. He will now try to keep the Mueller report hidden.
I believe Barr came into his job five weeks ago and told Robert Mueller to wrap up the investigation and to not make any conclusions, allowing Barr to sweep everything under the rug.
Arrogance supersedes logic for these people. The Mueller report will come out and when it does it will show that the Barr memo was a fraud.
CLIMATE CHANGE IS FAR TOO IMPORTANT TO GET LOST IN A MIDDLING SCANDAL
Watch Here March 15, 2019
Canada as a whole may soon be feeling the pain the province of Ontario is presently enduring. With the SNC Lavalin issue weighing the Liberals down like an anchor it’s possible Canadian voters will again seek change for the wrong reason and elect the wrong party.
I have stated repeatedly that climate change is our clear and present danger. We can get lost inside the battles aimed at solving immediate problems and not pay enough attention to the greater threat—that if the earth continues to warm at its present rate…all of life is threatened.
The Conservatives, both provincial and federal, have taken their platform to the right, aligning with the Regressives to the south. I don’t want the Canadian Regressives anywhere near the Prime Minister’s Office.
So, to Prime Minister Trudeau, stop playing defense. Stop allowing the opposition to play offense. Get out there and do a talk till they drop press conference. You wanted the Lavalin executives to bear the brunt of their deceit but you wanted to protect the thousands of innocent workers. That’s not hard to explain. This isn’t enough of a scandal to allow the climate change deniers to win an election and put our citizens in peril.
Fix it. Thank you.
ROLIE POLIE OLIE, ONCE A CHILDREN’S CARTOON AND NOW PREMIER OF ONTARIO
Watch Here March 13, 2019
This is the story of Rolie Polie Ollie, once a children’s cartoon and now premier of Ontario.
Growing up was hard for Rolie. As a child he was made fun of by the others in the schoolyard and he was never allowed to play in their little teahouse games. So, when Rolie grew up he decided that he didn’t just want to play in their games, he wanted to own the whole teahouse, and it was possible being the son of a wealthy father. So he got into politics, but instead of doing it to help people Rolie set about steamrolling anyone who got in his way.
Rolie was now a full-fledged bully.
But since the provincial election we have seen that Rolie, though he talks and acts tough; he can be pushed around. He gave up on his intention to destroy the Greenbelt. He was pushed back on his attempt to have his own OPP commissioner, in effect to have his own personal police force, and, and he’s being hounded by the parents of autistic students because he wants to cut their funding. To anyone being steamrolled by this bully, I say keep up the fight. He has a habit of backing down.
Oh Rolie…you should have stayed a children’s cartoon.
WHAT IF PENCE’S LOVING LOOKS AT TRUMP ARE ACTUALLY LOVING LOOKS?
Watch Here January 31, 2019
This post is going to verge on the inappropriate. Every time Mike Pence is in Trump’s company, he is caught looking lovingly at the president. Like this picture. Now, what if Pence is actually looking lovingly at the president. As in, he’s imagining what it would be like to cuddle in the morning.
Now, understand that Mike Pence fervently fights against homosexuality—as if it’s God’s number one sin…and it makes me think he’s hiding something. As Shakespeare wrote, “Me thinks he doth protest too much.”
Here is a picture of Pence and his wife. There is no sexual energy here. And Pence calls his wife mother. As opposed to Trump who calls his daughter…hot
Wouldn’t it be ironic if, after the two hundred or so indictments arrive, we find out that Pence actually loved Trump…that he and Trump had private meetings in the Oval Office, and that Pence was Trump’s Monica Lewinski. Maybe the Democrats can hire someone to subpoena Pence’s pants.
Don’t feel too bad for Mrs. Pence however. I think she lives the same lie. As in the first word that pops into her mind when she sees Melania is…YUM.
I warned you this might be inappropriate
TWO CORRUPT OLD MEN ARE HOLDING U.S. HOSTAGE IN SHUTDOWN
Watch Here January 23, 2019
We are now into the fifth week of the Trump government shutdown. Two stubborn and corrupt old men, President Trump and Senate leader McConnell, are acting like human blockades—refusing the wishes of the people and, in McConnell’s case, hiding. That’s not new for McConnell, he likes to take his toys, go into his office and lock the door so he can play in private. I hear his favourite toy is The Thing from Fantastic Four.
Why is McConnell going down a road that obviously leads to a cliff? I believe Trump has threatened him, and all the complicit Republican Senators, that he will expose their corrupt practices if they do not stand with him. And they seemingly have a long list of corrupt practices. As well McConnell’s wife, Elaine Chao works for Trump and likely comes home every night and tells her husband how much she loves her job and not screw it up for her.
As long as the spineless Republicans continue to hide in Trump’s massive shadow the shutdown will continue, and the economy will slowly grind to a halt. All this suffering in order to build a wall of hate.
TRUMP’S SYRIA WITHDRAWAL A PERSONAL SCHEME THAT PUTS NATIONS IN DANGER
Watch Here December 20, 2018
A dangerous example of a president feeling the pressure on many fronts has resulted in him tweeting out that the US is withdrawing its troops from Syria. He did so…IN A TWEET, which threw the government and the military into chaos. Nobody is for withdrawal, not even his supposed sycophantic Republicans. Even Lindsey Graham is vowing to fight the president on this matter. Trump has angered his golfing buddy.
Why would Trump make such a rash decision? Is it the pressure of the Special Counsel knocking on his door? Or has dementia already entered his room? Or is it that Trump is beholden to the two countries at the heart of this matter. He is beholden to Russia, for reasons that will soon cost him his presidency, and he is beholden to Turkey because the Turks have the tape of the Jamaal Khashoggi killing and are threatening to release it if Trump doesn’t leave Syria. Trump has business interests with the Saudis and doesn’t give a damn about a journalist’s murder but if the tape is leaked it will compromise his decision to clear the Saudi prince and could put all of his business interests with the Saudis in jeopardy.
NO MORE CHOCOLATES, FLOWERS FOR TRUMP NOW THAT PAUL RYAN IS GONE
Watch Here December 14, 2018
It was an interesting meeting when Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi met with Trump in the Oval Office to talk about the looking government shutdown. It was quite different from when Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell were there to kiss Trump’s ass like the perfect little sycophants that they are. I know Trump is going to miss those days. He’s especially going to miss the flowers and chocolates Ryan always brought for him.
Just a note Mr. President. The flowers, like everything that comes out of your mouth, were fake.
MLB WINTER MEETINGS ARE LIKE WATCHING GOLDFISH SWIM IN A BOWL
Watch Here December 11, 2018
The major league baseball winter meetings are taking place this week at the Mandalay Bay Hotel in Las Vegas. All the sports networks sent their best to cover the meetings. But so far there hasn’t been any activity. The media are searching for information like squirrels looking for nuts. In fact, as I was surfing channels last night on the MLB network the host and three of the network’s top insiders sat at the MLB desk in the hotel lobby playing cards. That was some kind of exciting TV.
Do you have any nines? Go fish.
Not much is happening at the MLB winter meetings. In fact, the MLB network was showing their hosts playing cards. What’s on for today, anyone feel like a movie?
HOW DOUG FORD REMINDS ME OF THE MONSTER IN YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN
Watch Here December 7, 2018
Most of us in Ontario recognize this man. Doug Ford, Premier of Ontario, major blowhard and wannabe autocrat who is on his own personal revenge tour to take out anyone who ever dared cross him or his now deceased brother.
Whenever I see or hear from the Ontario Premier I think of a scene in Young Frankenstein. For those of you who haven’t seen it—it’s a Mel Brooks comedy. In the movie the mad doctor wants to be called Frunkensteen; he asks Igor his assistant—its pronounced Eye-Gore, to steal a Normal brain from a local lab. Once inside the lab Eye-Gor sees two jars. He opens the first jar and takes out the brain, but drops it on the floor so he grabs the brain out of the second jar and hurries out.
After the operation the monster is out of control Frunkensteen asks Eye-Gor about the brain. Eye-Gor admits to dropping the normal brain and then says the other jar was labeled Abbie something…Abbie Normal.
When I see or hear Doug Ford I think, there he goes—Abbie Normal.
MICHAEL FLYNN TURNS IN HIS TREASON OVERCOAT AND PUTS ON HIS PATRIOTIC UNIFORM
Watch Here December 5, 2018
This is Michael Flynn, former army general, NSA director and Trump campaign associate has turned in his treason overcoat and put his patriotic uniform back on. From the document release last night, we learned that Flynn met with the Special Counsel 19 times. He has probably seen Robert Mueller more often than he has seen his kids, if not his wife. Despite most of the details being blacked out we know Flynn has been assisting in three separate investigations. Three.
The Trump-Russia Collusion is one. The other two…we have no idea.
Like so many I’m disappointed at the thin piece of the puzzle released but the report does show the special counsel has accumulated a ton of evidence and he’s not done collecting.
We do know the president is a target. One investigation has to be about Trump’s illegal financial dealings that are separate from the collusion case. It’s really “Follow the Money” with this guy.
And the other likely deals with Flynn and Kushner, and the illegal contributions they accepted from foreign nations.
It is possible that Flynn leads to Kushner, and Kushner leads to Trump.
Flynn has turned in his treason overcoat and put his patriotic uniform back on. After 19 meetings with Special Counsel and assisting on 3 investigations no doubt Trump is having nightmares during the day.
VOTING SYSTEM THAT EMBRACES SUPPRESSION NEEDS FIXING
Watch here Nov 29, 2018
With Mississippi choosing today between a black democrat and an avowed racist Republican I want to make one more statement on voter suppression. For any country that prides itself on democracy as the US does voter suppression is a crime, or should be. If anyone circumvents the law to disenfranchise voters, disallow their voting rights, eliminate voting places and stick those neighbourhoods with broken down voting machines—that person should be tried in a court of law.
Stacy Abrams ran for Governor in Georgia, where the secretary of state spent ten years narrowing the minority voting public until he could run for governor and win. Though Stacey Abrams was wronged, and lost an unfair election, she is putting together a lawsuit—not against the former secretary of state, now governor, Brian Kemp. She’s not suing an individual; she’s claiming the voting laws in Georgia have been subverted and need to be strengthened. Don’t attack the disease attack the symptom.
It’s not about the fight, it’s about what’s right.
REPUBLICANS ARE THE PARTY OF OUTWARD AND BLATANT RACISM
Watch here Nov 19, 2018
Being a Republican seems to mean that you can be an outward racist. Start with expected Florida governor Ron DeSantis who attended several white nationalist seminars while in Congress and who said “monkey up” when talking about his campaign against an African American Democrat.
Then there’s Brian Kemp, expected Governor of Georgia, who has been disenfranchising minorities and suppressing minority voters for years. Or Steve King, Congressman from Iowa, who actually flew to Austria to meet with members of the Austrian Nazi party…Austria, where Hitler was born.
And now we have Cindy Hyde-Smith who is in a run off for Senator in Mississippi. Hyde-Smith said, on the campaign trail, that if her supporter “Invited her to a public hanging I’d be on the front row.” Mississippi, home of the most lynchings in US history.
It would seem being a white supremacist does not disqualify these people for the Republican Party but as far as I’m concerned it disqualifies them for the human race.
NBA CONTINUES TO IGNORE ISSUES WITH THEIR OFFICIALS—PART 1
Watch here Nov 17, 2018
This picture was taken on February 23, 2018. The Raptors Jonas Valanciunas makes the game-tying basket at the buzzer against Milwaukee. Officials chose not to call a foul on this play and later the league backed them up because, at least on this night, head chopping is a legal play.
Now I receive a great deal of criticism on social media when I complain that the NBA has the worst collection of officials of any professional sport in North America; that NBA officials often play favourites. My contention is that officials are professionals who, like anyone else involved in sports, deserve criticism when they make mistakes. In this game Valanciunas should have been awarded a free throw and an opportunity win a game that went into overtime…which Milwaukee won.
The reason I’m bringing this up now is because something similar happened in last night’s Raptor’s loss in Boston; which I will address in Part 2.
NBA CONTINUES TO IGNORE ISSUES WITH THEIR OFFICIALS—PART 2
Watch here Nov 17, 2018
Late in the fourth quarter of last night’s game the officials rule Raptor possession on a ball that looked to be last touched by Toronto. The arena explodes. The boos are deafening. From that moment on the game officials decided they needed to favour Boston to presumably escape with their lives.
The most egregious call takes place with 24.5 seconds left in the game. The Raptors are up by 2 and have the ball. A shot goes up and bounces off the rim. Pascal Siakam leaps up, grabs the rebound and puts it back. But wait. Boston’s Gordon Hayward who, upon realizing that he can’t get to the rebound, flops backward. Sure enough. The official, standing two feet away, decides that instead of rewarding Siakam for a tremendously athletic play he rules for the flop, takes the 2 points away from Toronto and sends Hayward to the free throw line to tie the game. The Celtics eventually win the game in overtime.
For those who think that officials can’t determine the outcome of a game I remind you of the one night when head chopping was a legal play in the NBA.
MY MESSAGE TO MILLENIALS ON ELECTION DAY
Watch here Nov 6, 2018
This Tuesday citizens of the United States have an opportunity to bring democracy back from the brink, and to put a check on corruption. I’m speaking to you…millennials.
You are typically so consumed with your own lives…school, career, fun…heads burrowed into your electronic devices, but if you don’t vote and the election goes the wrong way your future is in doubt. The money will continue to be taken from your parents’ pockets, from your pockets and given to the millionaires and billionaires and corporate entities who feed the republican party. Remember Susan Collins didn’t vote for Kavanagh because she believed him, she was paid a million dollars to do so. Republicans don’t care about you, they care about power.
And for those of you who live in coastline cities you’d better start reading up on North Dakota and Wyoming because scientists say you have a decade to alter the changing climate or coastline cities could be submerged under rising ocean waters.
The 18-34 voting block makes up the largest group in the country. If you vote you win.
Think of it this way; teenagers and young adults complain that your parents don’t listen to you. By voting you can make the entire country listen to you.
Talk about power.
LINDSEY GRAHAM IS A SOUTHERN SYCOPHANT
Watch Here Oct 23, 2018
Hi. My name is Lindsey Graham, and I am a United States Senator from the great state of South Carolina. I been sixteen years in the senate. I’m what’s known as a southern sycophant.
Now I’m known like that because…well, first, I’m from the south, which means I show how ignorant I am when I speak, and I have an inbred aversion to every colour except green.
Second, well, it takes a lot of skill and perseverance to be a true sycophant. For me I was best friends with John McCain. You remember John McCain, don’t ya? American hero. Me and him were best friends.
Well Ol’ John up and died on me, so I had to go looking for another ass to kiss, and wouldn’t you know it, I found the biggest ass of them all…Trump.
THE INTRA-OFFICE MEMO SENT BY ONTARIO PREMIER DOUG FORD
Watch Here Oct 19, 2018
So, I received this letter, its an intra-office memo written by Doug Ford that somehow got sent to me, obviously by mistake. I printed a copy. Let me read it to you.
“I’m really getting tired of having to say the same thing over and over again. When I say that I’m repealing cap and trade I expect everyone to be lock-step behind me. When I say that the old sex-ed curriculum is working I expect everyone to agree. When I cancel the $100 million fund to fix schools I expect everyone to say what a great saving it will be for the people of Ontario. When I talk about freezing the disastrous minimum wage increase made by the Liberals I expect everyone to say how it will benefit Ontario businesses. And I need that scrawny guy who brings up the mail to stop mixing me up with my brother. He calls me Premier Rob. I’m Premier Doug.”
It certainly sounds like the premier is a little frazzled today; perhaps he’s still pissed that Trudeau came up with legal weed and all his little mind could concoct was buck a beer.
