Huffington Post Responds to Chuck C. “Rage Furby” Johnson’s Defamation Suit: “Plaintiff Is an Unabashed, Well-Known, Far-Right Political Activist”

“Notorious for making racially offensive, anti-Semitic, and homophobic statements online and in other media”

MediaApril 2020 • Views: 36,744

You may have heard that infamous far right jackweasel Chuck C. Johnson (who is NOT ME) recently filed a defamation lawsuit against the Huffington Post for accurately reporting what he’s written, said and done, evidently hoping for some cash from a settlement.

This week, HuffPo’s legal team responded to Chuck’s complaint, and it’s a hoot to read, something I wouldn’t normally say about legal documents. You can tell they enjoyed doing this one.

I’m pleased to note that one of my own articles about this thoroughly repellent human is cited in their arguments.

and

On March 17 2020, the Wall Street Journal stated that Clearview was pitching their technology to states for use in contact tracing to assist with the coronavirus pandemic…

Cybersecurity expert Josephine Wolff called out Clearview in a New York Times op-ed, “The United States government’s engagement with the facial recognition company Clearview AI on coronavirus tracking is especially worrisome in this regard”, and that “The company’s product is still every bit as dangerous, invasive and unnecessary as it was before the spread of the coronavirus.”

Gov Beshear reported only 3 deaths in Kentucky today, but as always he didn’t celebrate as each death is sad. Testing is expanding, but based on plans that call for 500k or 1 million tests a day to reopen the country (some experts say we need more like 3 million a day), Kentucky would need to conduct 7k to 14k tests every day. We have conducted a total of 48k, a bit less than we need every week, at a minimum. Not Beshear’s fault, Trump has failed to use his authority to get all the supplies needed to test for the nation.

A Louisiana sheriff blamed a 14-year-old, unarmed teen for an encounter that left the teen critically injured when an off-duty cop shot him in the head, fearing the teen’s phone light was a gun, according to local news station 4WWL-TV…..

“You know what, let’s face it,” Lopinto said during a press conference Friday. “Good, bad, or indifferent, no matter what, we had several juveniles that were out at 3 o’clock in the morning that shouldn’t have been out, not only during the COVID but just not out in general. You know I asked family members. Bad things happen at that time of the morning.”

‘We’re basically ill-prepared’: Hobbled House majority frets about its effectiveness amid pandemic, WaPo

Questioned about the Post story, Pelosi acknowledged the exasperation within her caucus. She said she backs remote voting but bipartisan support from House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) was crucial before moving ahead with any changes.
“I share the frustration that they have about the committees,” she said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “I’m all for doing the remote voting by proxy. I want it to be bipartisan. The Republican leader, Mr. McCarthy, has assured me that he will consider this. He’s not there yet. He could be there.”
…Last week, Pelosi endorsed a plan devised by House Rules Committee Chairman Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) to allow for proxy voting in limited circumstances — permitting members to authorize a colleague to vote on the floor on their behalf — but Republicans erupted in protest, and plans for a vote were postponed.

Not so much worried about Democrats looking foolish as I am that the current administration is so batshit crazy there’s almost nothing that is out of the realm of possibility.

Yeah. I was actually prepared to get outraged over the original tweet because it sounds like exactly the sort of ridiculous, stupid, over-the-top, illegal thing that Trump would tell Barr to do.

Does anybody get the meaning of what a so-called Noble (not Nobel) Prize is, especially as it pertains to a hereditary aristocracy? Noble is defined as a bunch of fops who abuse their power and lord their unearned privilege over the lower classes. Does sarcasm ever work? https://t.co/vw3eFhxi9n

And the Klown Kar Kleptocracy can’t wrangle the head clown.

“For the first time, I feel like he gets it that these [daily press briefings] aren’t helping him,” said one source who spoke to Trump on Friday.

But two others who spoke to Trump the same day about his press conferences said he was still insisting his performances were helping him, as evidenced by the ratings. This is why White House staff are still skittish about saying Trump will definitely wind down his appearances. Source: Axios

“Expect to see a pivot from the White House in the days ahead, focusing on the economy and a more hopeful, forward-looking message,” one of these officials said. Source: Axios

Good luck with that. By Friday, Trump will be screaming that “everyone gets a haircut” Oprah style. The ratings will be beautiful.

His job is to appear to be working hard as a leader. Because you know that actually doing it (and caring) is hard and ages the crap out of you. All he wanted from the office was the pomp, glory, and media attention while he cruised through his day and had underlings do the actual work.

So we get a rudderless Executive since Pence is incapable of covering, and Trump wouldn’t allow Pence to cross his whims even if Pence had any ability. It’s an ideal time for folk like Bannon and Stephen Miller since they can push agendas from the shadows that Trump is quite willing to go along with since they play to his biases.

(And compared to Martin Sheen in “The Dead Zone” it appears that we’re lucky in that Trump appears to not quite be willing to start a war yet on a whim.)

I’m pretty sure we’ve seen this movie before. Problem is that, in that movie, Martin Sheen’s character failed to win the election because people saw him for the coward and lunatic that he was and he never won the presidency…

If you’re talking about Dead Zone, sure.

But then he came back as Josiah Bartlett, won two terms, and did the job really well.

I Would Prefer Not To Apr 26, 2020 • 7:13:51pm

I posted this on FB

Covid Diaries: What Counts?

Note: I write this for me, as a reminder to my future self on what was in my mind. There is no plot; this is just the ramblings of a man recovering from a virus. Read it at your pleasure or your peril.

I’m getting better, but doing anything is still a struggle. I have a sink full of dishes that I will get to soon enough. I sleep during the day and can’t sleep at night. It’s not healthy, but I can’t seem to reverse the pattern. Since I have no taste, and no morning ritual, I often forget to brush my teeth in the morning/afternoon. Thank god for masks.

What counts? At first I wanted to be counted, as a survivor of Covid-19. I have all the symptoms, but have never been tested. They are only testing the really sick. So, I have it, can’t “prove it” and realize it really doesn’t matter. The only thing that matters to me, and the few that love me, is to stay off the list of the dead that is growing on a daily basis.

I must confess, I check the number of dead before I go so sleep and when I wake up. I have no idea what the number means or how to give it meaning I just know that every one of those numbers represents a human that has left behind loved ones and I’m lucky not to be counted on the list.

On social media I hear people who can’t wait to “get back to normal.”

1) There is no going back.
2) Normal wasn’t that great to begin with.
This is not to say that I wouldn’t love to be at Yankee Stadium enjoying a beer. Sounds great, but I think we can, and must do, better than normal. We can make some changes and protect the planet and help those that need it. It’s will not be easy, but either is this. In short, going back to normal is like flying to Paris to eat at MacDonald’s and immediately returning home. It’s going to the prom with your sister…

We can do better.

A lot of friends I thought knew better are falling for this one.

This is part of the reason why the old internet adage of ‘Ignore the trolls’ simply doesn’t work in political environments, especially the one we’re in. The idea of ‘ignore the trolls’ assumes that trolls can be starved of attention, oxygen, and they’ll give up, or that people are smart enough to know that trolls are trolls, that their BS is just that and that debating them simply would give them the attention they crave.

Except that now the trolls are the one with the support systems, the very attention that gives them oxygen and life, and because they can keep at it, the big lie is in effect. Anything that can be repeated ad nauseam to the extent that modern trolls do can be assumed true just from the sheer repetition, and that means even smart people will fall for sheer bullshit just because they keep hearing it, and keep hearing it. And if no one fights against it, then there’s nothing to tell them that this IS bullshit.

I know that’s already a hobby horse of Charles’, but it’s still worth repeating, because apparently the only way people can get anything in their heads is to repeat the truth more often than the BS. And that is….depressingly….a battle we’re struggling to win.

Trump’s Disinfectant Remark Raises a Question About the ‘Very Stable Genius’ https://t.co/I3tfTYicaW

— New York Times Pitchbot (@DougJBalloon) April 27, 2020

And for choice passages:

Carlos Curbelo, a Republican former Florida congressman who clashed at times with Mr. Trump and did not vote for him, said the president’s comments on disinfectants were likely to resonate precisely because he was running a race premised largely on Mr. Biden’s mental capacity.

“Given Joe Biden’s gaffes and mistakes, I think the Trump campaign had a strong narrative there,” he said. “At the very least, that advantage was completely erased.”

——

The president can register as more time-bending than Teflon. Plenty sticks to him; it just tends to be buried quickly enough by the next stack of outrages, limiting the exposure of any single one.

The second is just…man. The self-awareness at that paper is absolutely non-existent, isn’t it?

We just finished some home fried chicken wings and wrap style salad. We had some barely ripe bananas so I deep-fried one coated with confectioners sugar and drizzled with chocolate. Used the oil twice.

What quarantine was needed in 1910?

Polio, possibly?

Can’t be certain, but looks like it could have been cholera or measles based on some quick research. Typhoid fever was also around.

I do not see that. She’s his used goods.

But fuck it, I don’t get rich people, so what do I know?

< Wince > I can’t say she’s the kind I find attractive being a chubby chaser, but that “used goods” crack is worse than she deserves. Like any person in this world she deserves to find joy. I hope someday somewhere she is able to. Even more I hope his youngest boy is able to escape the curse of that crime family and make a decent life for himself.

Deep thoughts from Toni Lemon

With help from the pandemic and the national alarm that came with it, the Democrats were able to force us into a trial run of their progressive agenda with very little, if any pushback. Why? Because too many Americans are content with being SHEEP!

At least toilet paper doesn’t actively encourage toxic people and politics.

The New York Times is hell bent on keeping Trump in the Oval Office because he’s a big moneymaker to the marks dumb enough to subscribe to the Times and advertise in that corporate propaganda rag!

Families were put in quarantine if they had a case of (for example) measles in the house. My mother remembers her family being put in quarantine in 1946 when she had measles. They had to have groceries delivered to the front porch, for example.

Instead of saying “fuck trump” to end my evening I would like to change things up and say “FUCK TOMI.”

That car screams, “TORCH ME!” I grew up in the Boston area in the late seventies, and cars were being boosted, yanked and torched right and left. We were the car theft capital of the world!

It doesn’t influence me. Much.
