Ya know who I feel sorry for? Joe Biden!

Every American is looking for him to cure all that ails America, individually.

Fix healthcare, fix racism, clean the planet,etc., all while reaching out to repubs, who desire him to fail, to fix our divide,

An impossible mandate.

Where are the hoards of lawyers Biden has?

Is it just defense?

Where are they when hoards of repub activists are trying to intimidate vote counters?

Where are the Democratic lawyers?

I'm afraid to go to sleep....

Once I thought Gore won, and the other time I was sure Hillary won.

Now I am afraid to sleep, as if my sleeping creates monsters!

trump promised me, if I contributed to him...

my name would be scrolled during the debate..of course I gave 0.00, but did anyone see his contributors names scrolled?

his current promise

President Trump handpicked 100 of his VERY BEST supporters from around the Country to join the EXCLUSIVE Trump 100 Club, and you were one of them.

Like I said I have contributed exactly 0.00..he lies, he's a liar...

AT&T is throttling my internet

Yesterday I did a speed test...0.0 download, and 0.3 upload. I cannot play a video, and today I can't get my gmail.

Day before yesterday, I called because my internet kept going from out to limited, and had no internet for most of the day.

They do something every now and again, and use the time to promote 'uverse' which I am not interested in.

Does anyone know who I can call in regards to this problem? I'm afraid to call their regular numbers, as that is what got me into this mess, and my gmail is now useless.

Another discovery: How can prosecutors taking police union money deliver justice for black victims?

https://us.cnn.com/2020/05/30/opinions/george-floyd-minneapolis-police-granderson/index.html

In 2012, Jackie Lacey made history. Not only did she become the first woman to serve as Los Angeles district attorney, she was also the first black person in the job. Lacey was born and raised in Crenshaw, and her victory appeared to represent a significant change for an office routinely criticized by community leaders for its slothful response to police brutality and corruption.

Since then there have been more than 500 officers involved in fatal shootings, and according to the Los Angeles Times, Lacey's office has only brought charges against less than 1% of them.
........
In her case, we can juxtapose it against the millions of dollars sent to her campaign by law enforcement unions, and the $1 million dollars the LAPD union contributed to a PAC dedicated to defeating her most recent opponent (George Gascón, the one who has promised to toughen the standards for "necessary" use of force by police). You begin to wonder if there's a conflict of interest. After all, if grassroots leaders worry that powerful politicians with close ties to gun and oil lobbies are somewhat compromised, is it not fair to wonder the same here?
