"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)"

"To white people, Bennett's musings are like kitchen-table talk from a kitchen they may otherwise never set foot in. To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

EXCLUSIVE: Source Says FBI Director Christopher Wray Pushed To Withhold Exculpatory Evidence In Mike Flynn Case
Federal Bureau of Investigations Director Christopher Wray fought to prevent exculpatory evidence from surfacing in the case of President Donald Trump’s former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, a source with direct knowledge of the situation tells Daily Caller.
New court documents were filed in Flynn’s case Friday containing the aforementioned exculpatory evidence, commonly referred to as Brady Material. Flynn’s attorney, Sidney Powell, announced the new filing on Twitter. She has repeatedly accused the FBI and Justice Department of hiding evidence in the case.
#BREAKING The government just provided the #Flynn defense with remarkable new & long withheld BRADY evidence. Letter below just filed. Stay tuned.@realDonaldTrump @Techno_Fog @seanmdav @seanhannity @ProfMJCleveland @BarbaraRedgate @JosephJFlynn1 @lofly727 @GoJackFlynn pic.twitter.com/06dS1ybv6L
— Sidney Powell (@SidneyPowell1) April 24, 2020
“This afternoon, the government produced to Mr. Flynn stunning Brady evidence that proves Mr. Flynn’s allegations of having been deliberately set up and framed by corrupt agents at the top of the FBI,” Powell wrote in an additional filing. “The government has deliberately suppressed this evidence from the inception of this prosecution—knowing there was no crime by Mr. Flynn.”
“Since August 2016 at the latest, partisan FBI and DOJ leaders conspired to destroy Mr. Flynn,” she continued. “These documents show in their own handwriting and emails that they intended either to create an offense they could prosecute or at least get him fired.”
Powell claimed that more exculpatory evidence in the case will surface in the future.
An FBI official told The Federalist that FBI general counsel Dana Boente was behind the effort to block the release of the Brady Material, yet Daily Caller’s source explained Boente was acting in coordination with Wray.
The New York Times additionally reported Friday that U.S. attorney John Durham’s probe into the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation asked witnesses about a Washington Post article speculating on potential ties Flynn had to Russia.
Justice Department code clearly dictates that “government disclosure of material exculpatory and impeachment evidence is part of the constitutional guarantee to a fair trial,” and the FBI does not reserve the right to withhold exculpatory evidence.

Democratic Governors done flipped the script. Now some pastors (not all are crooks) know how it feels to get money taken away in the same manner pastors take it away from church goers every Sunday--- pastors are on parity with panhandler. Only difference; an empty suit.
Wonder if they still worship God in spirit and truth?

Trolls these days! They aren't even trying any more. Why, when I was a young Social Justice Warrior, the haters would walk uphill for miles, barefoot through snowdrifts, just to scream at a little girl going to school. Now they'll barely rouse themselves to tell last decade's lies. I blame a lack of Character, worsened by incompetent fuhrershiop.
Ugh... that should be "führership". If only we could edit these posts.
Donald Trump visited the Oracle at Delphi. He gave her a dozen dozen gold-plated lead trophies for cheating at golf, two used-up wedding rings, and a twenty-three gigabuck IOU. He then asked her, "Who will win in November?"
She answered, "If there is a fair election, then there will be a landslide, and a great party will be destroyed."
Trump left her, smiling, for he had forgotten to ask her which way the landslide.
To Paradoctor,
Thank you. Your two posts have made me laugh repeatedly. Yes, I remember those days when grown men would crawl through ground glass just to stop a little black girl from going to school. By comparison, today's white supremacists are cream puffs as they parade around with their guns and tiki torches.
I too wish for an edit feature for our posts. My eye sight is not good, so I often have trouble seeing my typos until it is too late, even though I review my posts before I hit the send button.
Have a good day, my friend, and let me know what you think of our chances of taking the senate in November.

Mike, the right wingers have been going on about this for at least ten years. To pretend that a brilliant scholar such as Barack Obama didn't know how many states there were is just pathetic. LOL! Compare this one statement to the hundred blunders Trump makes at least every month!
I think if you asked President Obama about this, he would say he was tired and meant to say 57 primaries/caucuses. As I'm sure you know, there are five U.S. territories, Washington DC, and Americans Abroad who all have a role in nominating the Democratic presidential candidate. These seven and the 50 states make 57.
Poor Donald. he cut and ran after making monumental mistake on Television and is getting criticized for it. So now he's hiding out behind a series of tweets. The great insulter can dish it out, but he sure can't take it.
When I make a mistake that I don't want to leave in a comment, I copy the comment to my clipboard, delete it from the blog, then paste it back into the comment box where I can change what was wrong with it.
Not as convenient as the edit feature in, say, the Disqus platform, but it gets the job done, and is better than Wordpress, where you can't even delete anything.

I demand my Constitutional Right to have an injection of Lysol Disinfectant in my ass, as Doktor Donald Trump, M.D. suggested!
What Kemp is doing isn't a lark, as explained by a Georgia restaurant owner on Twitter. With the regulations relaxed, none of his employees are eligible for unemployment benefits, whether or not he reopens his dining room, so the state is off of the hook and the small business owners bear the brunt.
-Doug in Sugar Pine
“This is if Highlights Goofus and Galant came to life.“
If Goofus were an unrepentant racist (probably) and had an arsenal of guns at home that he intended to use to fight the government.
I’m thinking there would be parents organizing to ban this version of Highlights as inappropriate for children.
"If Goofus were an unrepentant racist (probably) and had an arsenal of guns at home that he intended to use to fight the government."

Exactly Doug. Georgia painted themselves into a corner the same as Kansas by cutting all taxes and making it necessary to amend the constitution to raise taxes so once again Republicans screw everyone because of rigid ideology. Get ready for a Democrat governor there just like KS and more reasonable legislation. They do ok when nothing bad happens but when something does go wrong they can't handle it at all.
The lockdown is about love. It's about love for yourself and for your fellow citizens. It is about saying society is real and society matters, and society is better off if we all work together.

"So why are white men more likely to commit mass murder? American masculinities scholar Michael Kimmel suggests that social justice efforts aimed at dismantling the social hierarchies that white men sit atop are creating “angry white men” with “aggrieved entitlement.”
He says: “If you feel entitled and you have not got what you expected, that is a recipe for humiliation.”

It's worse than selfishness. It's _irrational_ selfishness. If it were rational selfishness, then you could appeal to reason.
I suspect that part of what we're up against is face-saving. Some, having voted for him for what seemed like good reasons at the time, have been doubling down repeatedly to save their bad investment of face. It's easier to rationalize than reconsider.
Think 'frog in a slowly-heated saucepan'.
So what will make froggie jump? Not more heat. Maybe someone saying "Boo!"

Newport Beach city leaders will hold a special meeting Tuesday to consider shutting down its beaches for the next three weekends after tens of thousands of people flocked to the coast to enjoy the balmy, sunny weather.
In contrast, beaches in Los Angeles County from Malibu to the South Bay were empty despite the first hot weekend of the year.
As a Californian, I apologize for the behavior of the conservative enclave in the southwest corner of our state. Up here, even the "KAG45" truck driving idiot wears a mask and keeps his distance.

Hmmm, what could be the critical difference between these two areas?
Oh yeah, Orange County is full of wingnuts, who have listened to Trump and the various right-wing media idiot bloviators tell them that COVID-19 is no big deal and really just equivalent to the flu. (For anyone who still hasn't seen this Daily Show compilation of staggering wingnut stupidity: Saluting the Heroes of the Pandumbic.)
LA County is NOT full of wingnuts.

Don't be too hard on Donald. He has superlative sources. Wing-nuts know about tons of stuff that we ordinary people never even hear.
For instance, did you know that you can kill the Covid_19 bug by blowing hot air from your blow dryer into your nostrils? I only heard this because I bumped into an ardent Trump supporter on-line. I never could have guessed. I certainly haven't heard anything from the lamestream media. Hoo-Cooda-Knowed it was this easy to contain the virus?

Fox News Cuts Ties With Diamond & Silk, Unofficial Trump ‘Advisers’ Who Spread Bonkers Coronavirus Claims
Bwaha!
By Steve Benen:
The Irish Times' Fintan O'Toole had a rather brutal column over the weekend on Donald Trump's presidency and its impact on global perceptions of the United States. "Over more than two centuries, the United States has stirred a very wide range of feelings in the rest of the world: love and hatred, fear and hope, envy and contempt, awe and anger," O'Toole wrote. "But there is one emotion that has never been directed towards the US until now: pity."
The award-winning columnist added that it's easy to "feel sorry for Americans" because we're struggling during crisis conditions "with a malignant narcissist who, instead of protecting his people from Covid-19, has amplified its lethality. The country Trump promised to make great again has never in its history seemed so pitiful."

Oxford Leaps Ahead on Coronavirus Vaccine
April 27, 2020 at 3:02 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 135 Comments
New York Times: “Most other teams have had to start with small clinical trials of a few hundred participants to demonstrate safety. But scientists at the university’s Jenner Institute had a running start on a vaccine, having proved in previous trials that similar inoculations — including one last year against an earlier coronavirus — were harmless to humans.”
“That has enabled them to leap ahead and schedule tests of their new coronavirus vaccine involving more than 6,000 people by the end of next month, hoping to show not only that it is safe, but also that it works.”
“The Oxford scientists now say that with an emergency approval from regulators, the first few million doses of their vaccine could be available by September — at least several months ahead of any of the other announced efforts — if it proves to be effective.”

HEY, Anon, Watch out for the blue Tsunami in November!
I have heard this before from Afro centrics
Liberals an their follower's claiming that if whites
didn't come to Africa or Sub Saharan Africa that they
can,could,would have built their so called utopian societies
communities,city's but in actuality and reality that is nothing
more than an excuse because they had all that time meaning
centuries to do all the things that they claim and set for themselves
prior to the Europeans arriving discovering the continent which is
to create an ancient advance or very advanced civilization that looks
futuristic like wakanda of course the reason why they can't do that
is because they are born genetically inept,stupid otherwise Detroit
and Haiti would still be standing today an they will never needed help
from white people by holding their hands every step of the way to get
them to be in the same level as white,yellow,brown people.
