TRUMPS BIG LIE AND REPUPPYLICKANS LICKING TRUMP

Should we call Trump Republicans the "Repuppylickans" because they are like scared little puppy dogs following Donald Trump around waiting get some of his love?

Naw, I do not want to insult dogs. Dogs are usually loyal and friendly. Trump is garbage.

Is this country now politically split into two enemies, not two parties?

Are the Repuppylickans against everything the Democrats are for?

What happened? I mean the joke is over. Trump lost the 2020 election and Democracy is supposed to make a comeback. The wounds should be healing and common sense is supposed to be returning.

Instead, we have the"big lie" that the election was stolen from Trump.

You have about half the country who are Trump supporters sticking to that devilish fantasy despite indisputable, airtight evidence that the "big lie" is just that.

No matter, the believers of Trumps big lie are so brainwashed and closed minded that they cannot bring themselves to accept that Trump lost fair and square.

More inconceivable is that all sane politicians know Joe Biden is the President. 

But, almost every Republican is so scared of Trump and his supposed power over what were his seventy five million followers that these cowardly morons run around trying not to deny Trump lost.

They are sickeningly afraid to tell the truth because they believe Trump will bury them among their supporters if they do.

Then, they will lose lots of easy money and perks.

It is tragic. But, just like killer cop Chauvin, the jig will soon be up.

Then, Trump will be banished at best and likely humiliated, broke, and in prison.

Here's hoping.

PUTIN KILLING ALEXEL NAVALNY WHILE U.S. COWARDS QUIET

 Those Mother F...... Russians are letting patriot Alexel Navalny die now. Speak up gutless McConnell, McCarthy, Jordan, Gaetz etc.

Tell Putin what a piece of s... he is for letting Navalny die. Speak out as human beings instead of lap dogs. Attack Putin boldly like you attacked everyone who opposes POS Trump.

Can you? Would you? How gutless are you.

Help our President Joe Biden. Do your job as supporters of the constitution instead of opposers to the constitution.

Too scary for you and your cowardly Republicans to even consider? Tell your master Trump to do something about Navalny. I am sure he cares greatly. LOL. He is a fine American like all of you supporters and puppets.

Pathetically, you would rather fight with Democrats or anyone else about your idiotic approaches to subjects like coronavirus vaccine, equal rights, stimulis payments, unemployment rather than doing productive things.

Stop wasting your time and taxpayer money and start caring about America or quit and find real jobs.

Work, you lazy pieces of garbage.

Or quit.

Or, go buy Putin and Trump an ice cream cone so they will be happy with you.

COMPULSIVE GAMBLING CAN BE STOPPED

 

COMPULSIVE GAMBLING: AN UNCONDITIONAL LOVER

The adrenaline, the euphoria, the joy of knowing you will be in action is enough to inspire any gambler to gamble again and again or no matter how much they have lost. I am not just talking about lost money. I am talking about lost health, family,and friends.

About losing everything that matters.

I gambled for over 60 years and lost it all. In the last nine years I have quit gambling and slowly rebuilt my life. Yet, I continue to long for my greatest friend and unconditional lover. Gambling.

Now, I am no longer owned by that urge. I own it. I only own it onlyday at a time. So, I stay on guard and keep working with other compulsive gamblers continually or I know I am doomed. Each day I commit to not gambling that day get to the next day without making a bet.

Compusive gambling is an incurable, lifelong disease.That is the bad news. The could new the condition can be arrested. You can stop.

It's not easy but it's much better than going to jail, an asylum, or the cemetary.

I was a very big gambler betting on sports, craps, blackjack, or anything at all everyday. I would win or lose thousands of dollars. I have lost well over a million dollars before I stopped gambling over eleven years ago in 2009.

I lost everything including my priceless soul.

The addiction of compulsive gambling is the same for all affected whether one bets nickels or millions of dollars.We are powerless. Gamblers cannot stop. Help is needed.

The help comes from joining Gamblers Anonymous (GA) which is a totally free fellowship..

No one stops gambling on their own permanently. Will power alone will not make it. I tried many times and would stop for a few months or longer.

But, the urge to gamble waited patiently to take me down again and again I would stay abstinent for one month to three years. Eventually, I would start gambling.

I could not understand that I needed the help of other compulsive gamblers to quit gambling permanently\ I always thought I could stop on my own. I never wanted to. So, I would say I was different.

Being destroyed financially, mentally, and emotionally was not enough to stop me. . The monster inside my brain and every other compulsive gamblers brain still lives on unaffected by logic and reason. It says come back to me. I love you no matter what the circumstances are.

It says "You can do it David. You can set limits, you can avoid going out of control and just enjoy the thrill of being in action. like a normal person..”

Simultaneously, my rational mind keeps speaking the painful truth constantly saying. “you are powerless., you cannot stop gambling on your own”. My compulsive gambling mental illness is much smarter and stronger than my will.

You are doomed if you gamble David.”

I do know that now. The gambling demon in my brain does not go away. It never will.

But, the evil voice tears at my irrational mind and says "just do it.” You will be okay My logical mind needs constant reinforcement to say no to that urge everyday of my life. It says "David, you have tried to stop gambling and cannot do it alone" Go to a gamblers anonymous meeting, call your GA. friends.

My abnormal mind is a powerful, self destructive force that needs no nourishment. It never starves and is endlessly patient. It waits and waits tirelessly inside myself and inside every other compulsive gambler. It says "Come to me David. You want me"

It stalks me and tempts me like the sick, twisted, sociopath it is.

My solution, my lifelong answer came when I started to attend Gamblers Anonymous meetings regularly which are filled with people just like me. I faithfully attend GA meetings weekly, every week, no matter what else is happening. My GA meetings are the biggest responsibility I have.

Meetings come before work, family, or anything else because I know that gambling will either drive me insane, put me in jail, or kill me.

So, I know that my life depends on not gambling and I need the support of other compulsive gamblers continually. I stay abstinent by going to meetings and sharing my feelings with other gamblers whether young or old whether they have been abstinent for one day or thirty years.

I know that I need the positive reinforcement I get from being at GA meetings which are plentiful all over the country and the world. Just Google gamblers anonymous. Call the emergency phone service or have someone call for you. People who are compulsive gamblers understand each other.

I work the 12 steps of recovery with a sponsor and at group meetings. I deal with personal defects that caused me endless pain and suffering from gambling. Only from GA can I get the strength and support of others just like me who help me through each day.

Compulsive Gamblers all share the same feelings. Only other compulsive gamblers understand each other regardless of age, nationality, beliefs or any other denominator. We are all the same because we are powerless over gambling and our lives are unmanageable. It's an easy concept to understand but tough to accept and stick with. But, thousands of men and women are recovering compulsive gamblers.

Look up Gamblers Anonymous online and find out where to call and where the local meetings are in your area. Google it. There are thousands of meetings throughout the country everyday of the year.

.There is a free, twenty four hour a day non stop helpline that can be called by anyone, anytime. Try it.

I have not gambled a penny since January 9, 2009.

If I can stop anybody can.

But, only with help.

You can only but only if you don't play.

Gambling is my deadly lover who I never intend to return to.

Compulsive gambling is the devil.

GEORGE FLOYD IS DEAD BUT SPEAKS LOUDLY TO POLICE

 Derek Michael Chauvin is an American former police officer undergoing a trial on murder charges in the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on May 25, 2020. Wikipedia

Born: March 19, 1976 (age 45 years), Oakdale, MN

Nationality: American

Full name: Derek Michael Chauvin

Spouse: Kellie Chauvin (m. 2010–2021)

Known for: Involvement in the killing of George Floyd

Education: Metropolitan State University (2006), Park High School, Dakota County Technical College

Chauvin has been sitting in the defendants courtroom chair looking looking like a beast and not a human being. He has shown no external  emotion, humanity, or reactions after almost two weeks of hearing everyone testify and present evidence about what a monster he was to Floyd and others in his career.

I only see on television a tranqualized looking animal seemingly guilty of nonchalantly sitting on George Floyds neck for over nine minutes therby killing him..

He appeared oblivious to the fact that he was terminating Floyd in broad daylight only a few feet away from other cops and bystanders who were screaming and yelling at him to stop the murder. 

If prosecutors thought he intended to kill Floyd they would have entered a plea of temporary insanity to  defend this guy. 

But, they did not, after exploring everything about his about Chauvins twenty years on the Minneapolis police force. So, Chauvin must be legally sane.

His record shows many complaints and a few commendations. Presumably, at times he did his job correctly by defending citizens  and many other times complaints were made against him when he was abusive in his treatment of people. 

But, he never before acted like a killer. Chauvin joined the Minneapolis Police Department in 2001.^[13][17] He received a medal for valor in 2006 for being one of several officers who fired on a suspect who pointed a shotgun at them, and another in 2008 for a domestic-violence incident in which he broke down a door and shot a suspect who reached for his pistol.^[18][19] 

He received a commendation medal in 2008 after he and his partner tackled a fleeing suspect holding a pistol. He received a commendation medal in 2009 after working off-duty as a security guard for a nightclub.^[16]

Misconduct complaints

Chauvin had 18 complaints on his official record, two of which ended in discipline, including official letters of reprimand.^[20] He had been involved in three police shootings, one of which was fatal.^{[17][21][22][23]} According to the former owner of El Nuevo Rodeo, a Latin nightclub, Chauvin had worked there off duty as security while George Floyd was also working as security, but was not certain whether they knew each other.^[24][25] 

The owner has been critical of Chauvin since his arrest, describing Chauvin's tactics as "overkill" and saying "Chauvin was unnecessarily aggressive on nights when the club had a black clientele, quelling fights by dousing the crowd with pepper spray and calling in several police squad cars as backup".^[16] 

The owner also said Chauvin responded to fights by spraying the crowd with mace instead of dealing with those who were fighting.

It is likely that Chauvin was another angry and ignorant cop who liked using his power whenever he could to abuse people. He was turned on by authority and control like many other policemen who belong in jail instead of roaming around loose endangering people just because they like to. 

 I believe that Chauvin is a miserable, sadistic, low life who should never have even been put on the police force. 

He is just like so many other cops out there who are like Chauvin but luckily for them they do not get exposed.

My big question is why does the defense not put Chauvin on the stand to testify for himself? Even if the defense attorneys believe that Chauvin would come off to the jury worse than he has already been made out to be so be it.

I do not think his sentence if he is convicted would change very much. 

What does he have to lose? 

The jury has listened to testimony and seen evidence that portrays Chauvin as an inhumane creature who has no use for honest, ethical police work and victims. 

He appears to be just the animal we have seen who casually sat on George Floyds neck for over nine minutes killing him by blocking his oxygen. Seems like he is a bad guy.

 I have not seen one display of emotion from Chauvins body movements or facial rxpressions that indicates he is anymore than the savage he has been presented to be. 

However, if Chauvin has any redeeming qualities that might impress the one juror he needs who may rescue him from a unanimous guilty verdict carrying a long sentence then they should let Chauvin testify no matter how terrible of a witness he is.

 It does not seem he coud destroy himself anymore then the evidence against him already has. It seems that he has no possible way to get any sympathy from the jury without talking.

 If he can speak and represent himself as a human being with emotions and felings that may help him. 

If not, it seems that he will not get much more time in jail then he will get by not testifying.

I despise this cop and every other vicious cop out there. They are worse then those they arrest because they get to break the law legally with a badge and gun.

But, I am fascinated with stories like this.

I would like to hear Derek Chauvin tell the court why he killed George Floyd and whatever else he wants to say to possibly save his soul. 

 

It is no closure for anyone if Chauvin does not testify.
