It’s always jarring to me that that old post office building is a Trump hotel. Romanesque architecture just doesn’t mesh with Trump’s frilly idea of ‘style’. St. Paul has a mini-me version of that building designed by the same architect, and it is in one of the most charming areas of the downtown area. Even the smallest association with the Trump brand is nauseating.

As if we didn’t already know Trump and his people were assholes…
Trump has been eager to resume the rallies that are the centerpiece of his campaign. The president revels in his large crowds. The events let him vent and gauge the kind of rhetoric that will appeal to his ardent political base. They also help his campaign expand its voter databases and will serve as a contrast to Democratic challenger Biden, who has suspended campaign events because of the virus and hasn’t attracted the same size of crowds.
But the decision to pull the trigger now was driven, in large part, by the mass anti-racism protests that have taken place across the country in the wake of George Floyd’s death in Minneapolis. Campaign and White House officials say the protests — and the limited public health outcry they generated — gave them cover. If it was OK for tens of thousands of people to march through the streets, demanding racial justice, why can’t Trump rally his supporters, too?
Of course, the protests were held outside, with many participants wearing masks.

On Sunday, Rep. Ilhan Omar appeared on CNN’s State of the Union and spoke with host Jake Tapper about the movement to defund the police and specifically, calls to dismantle the Minneapolis Police Department, which Minneapolis city council members voted to begin the process of replacing with a community-led initiative. In speaking to Tapper, Omar summed it up simply, saying, “You can’t really reform a department that is rotten to the root—what you can do is rebuild.” But the topic is a complex one, and Omar breaks down fuller details in the clip below.
The Democratic congresswoman’s main point? That real reform means something new has to be put into the place of the existing structures. That said, she stressed that the community still has needs for safety and that there needs to be an appropriate way of responding when people are in danger or when crimes occur. For Omar, it’s about replacing the infrastructure that is currently in place with something safer for everyone.
Tapper asked Omar, “Just to be clear, you’re not saying that there’s nothing that takes its place?”
In her own words, Omar clarified that common misconception: “No one is saying that the community is not going to be kept safe. No one is saying crimes will not be investigated. No one is saying that we are not going to have proper response when community members are in danger.”
“What we are saying is the current infrastructure that exists as policing in our city should not exist anymore,” she added. Omar also used San Francisco as a model example, saying, “they’re moving toward a process where there is a separation of the kind of crimes that solicit the help of officers and the kind of crimes that we should have someone else respond to.”
The subject of defunding the police has been divisive among Democrats. For example, when asked about calls from some popular Democrats to put more funds into police Omar suggested, “If you had a company that wasn’t producing, you wouldn’t just pour more money into it so that it would produce.” She continued: “You would step back and say, let’s look at what works, what doesn’t work, and how do we move forward.”
“You can’t really reform a department that is rotten to the root. What you can do is rebuild,” Rep. Ilhan Omar explains her calls to defund the police departments. “No one is saying crimes will not be investigated.” #CNNSOTU pic.twitter.com/t3q10iJv3C

We have been getting delivery from Burgers 99 (on La Brea) a lot lately.

VOA Director’s Statement on CDC’s Media Interview Policy Excluding VOA Journalists (Goes to Voice of America)
Let’s say the VOA director is not happy about their reporters being banned from the CDC and Donald Trump accusing them of promoting Chinese propaganda (particularly since VOA is part of the US Government).
So, about the wildly innovative George Floyd memorial held in our Deep Su’thren town:
Organizers in the AA community got together with our totally non-stupid, sort of Republican mayor. They came up with the rally plan I posted about yesterday. A caravan was to assemble at the mall parking lot. I expected a hundred or so people to show, based on our history of dead-ender activism. Instead the staging area was jammed.
So, The city cops and Sheriff’s department enforced Lawn Order by issuing blue balloons to everyone so they could block intersections for the parade on the 5-mile trip through town. That engaged about half the police forces and cruisers. Our Voter Registration-mobile, wife driving:
So, we drove through the mall and commercial circle to the HS stadium (big parking lot). We were asked in the newspaper notice to maintain CV-19 smarts. There was no crowding because the FM soul station provided sound over our car radios for a succession of preachers, community folks and the Mayor to eulogize and testify. I counted 9 ranks of about 80 cars, and every freaking time the reverend (and the Mayor) called for an “Amen”, 700 cars hit their horns. We honked, we waved, we honored, and nobody got CV-19. The isolation was a bit too wide, so I only got to hand out a half-dozen or so VR forms.

re: #60 Backwoods_Sleuth
Look at the eye…….
What’s worrisome about Trump attacking VOA in particular is that they broadcast to a number of countries where there is no free press, in thirty-seven different languages.
Trump started attacking them over an AP report they put up on their Website and broadcast over shortwave.
In a lot of countries, VOA is considered like the BBC to be fair and impartial news. VOA isn’t really a thing in the USA.
If Trump can keep VOA from reporting straight news, then he can spread his propaganda using government assets and suppress information he doesn’t want told to all the countries in the world with no free press.

He probably learned it in speech therapy as a kid. So the assholes are indeed making fun of a speech impediment. Maybe they could direct some of their pearl clutching to that shit.
Respect is earned. Donald Trump has done everything a human could do to repel respect. He supposed to be POTUS and the People have the right to know what’s going on.
re: #129 A Mom Anon
I think sometimes Joe is like the rest of us: The stuff Trump does and says is so insane you just struggle for words trying to respond to it.
So Mary Trump is apparently going to detail, among other things, Donald and Rosemary (his sister) *cutting off medical benefits* for their great-nephew with cerebral palsy…in retaliation for her and her brother challenging their grandfather’s will. https://t.co/bdtEZR6HPW

Except that the location* is not that good for visitors and they’ve let the USS Texas rust away at the location there with insufficient maintenance to the point that it was “move it (repair it), or lose it”.
* - Basically in the middle of an industrial zone where the park is surrounded by chemical plants.

got a chance to try out my new to me Industar 22, an old FSU leica mount lens from 1952, on my Olympus E-PL1. My old VF3 has bitten the dust so I have to use the back screen chimping style & I really don’t like that. I do, however, like the rendition of this little 50/3.5 lens.
You can almost tell there are a huge bunch of dragonflies in this, like they’re following the sign towards the barn. Hopefully they’re gorging themselves on mosquitos! :LOL:

it makes no sense that Barr is trying to tank Flynn’s guilty plea because that would mean Flynn’s deal that gave him a pass for the crimes he committed with Rafiekian would evaporate & Flynn should then be prosecuted as Rafiekian’s co-defendant. This is further evidence that …

A note to media folks: If your newspaper or outlet is no longer covering the *enormous* BLM protests because they’re peaceful now, question why the news business fetishizes blood and violence and ignores racial justice movements otherwise.

Not super thrilled about the proliferation of weapons, but the reality is that the 2nd Amendment is really only for white men. (We white women are supposed to hide behind our armed menfolk.) This incident only reinforces that.
re: #66 Backwoods_Sleuth
Is it just me, or does Trump seem to have an obsession with the Nixon era?
A lot of people have been warning about NDAA 2012’s provision on “Indefinite Detention” of US citizens. Now the New York Supreme Court Judge James Burke just ruled that protesters can be indefinitely detained. This is why despite who is in office we cannot become complacent.

“Green Party” is trending on Twitter. One sample of the party’s reasoning:
Democrats harassing Green Party voters are like a sex doll manufacturer harassing people who want actual relationships with human beings.

re: #107 aatharuv
Of course what Melania obviously doesn’t realize is that once the Trump name is mud in the US, it’s going to be mud _everywhere_else too. The ability to work for/manage the Trump org in Europe, won’t be useful if there isn’t a Trump org…
I’d bet that within five or six years of Trump being out of office, the Trump Organization will cease to exist entirely, having been either sued or successfully prosecuted into oblivion.

Langston Hughes was a prophet.
“…America never was America to me,
And yet I swear this oath—
America will be!Out of the rack and ruin of our gangster death,
The rape and rot of graft, and stealth, and lies,
We, the people, must redeem
The land, the mines, the plants, the rivers.
The mountains and the endless plain—
All, all the stretch of these great green states—
And make America again!”

The truth is, we are. The Nuremberg rallies are restarting and he will be on TV. This alone will start to swing polls back towards him. As things get closer to the election, CNN and other mainstream outlets will run more and more hit pieces on Biden, and people who are disgruntled with Trump now will be ‘reminded’ that they hate Democrats more.
US media has not yet really begun to fight for Trump’s re-election. They will, though, in earnest.
re: #170 Renaissance_Man
I’m not sure about that. His rallies are designed to only appeal to Deplorables. They’re nasty and ugly and showcase him at his worst — yelling incoherently, basking in derogatory audience chants, encouraging his supporters to violently attack protesters. They’re not widening his base.

No surprise. The 2nd Amendment was all about making sure southern owners could kill any slave who revolted.
