All She Can Do Now Is Sing

 


Sammy "the Bull" Gravano freely admits he personally murdered the better part of a dozen guys and participated in many other killings. Did he get the chair? No. Is he rotting away in some supermax dungeon? No. He's got a YouTube channel and book contracts and he's doing just fine. He's making money from having whacked other goons.

Sammy only served a few years in a highly secure facility, part of the deal he negotiated for turning on John Gotti and the rest of the New York mob. He got a sweetheart deal because he was more useful to prosecutors as a rat than a guy rotting away in a prison.

Do you think Ghyslaine Maxwell isn't looking for a deal, some way not to spend the rest of her life behind bars? She's small fry compared to Jeffrey Epstein's play pals, guys such as Bill Clinton, prince Andrew, Alan Dershowitz, billionaire Tom Barrack, Woody Allen, Clinton nemesis Ken Starr, and the man himself, Donald J. Trump.

One thing that must weight heavily on Ghyslaine's mind is the question, 'did Jeffrey really hang himself in his cell?' Two guards charged with watching Epstein 24 hours a day both take a powder at the very moment he chooses to hang himself? Neck injuries that one of America's leading forensic pathologists warns were inconsistent with hanging and evidenced strangulation by ligature.

Now Epstein is gone, no longer able to help Ghyslaine. She's on her own. Unless she's convinced that Jeffrey did hang himself, certain questions must be going through her mind. 

Jeffrey can no longer do those people any devastating harm. He can't rat them out. She's the loose end in this mess, their ticking time bomb.

    Coincidence?

    Mound do you really think that a US court will chase down and possibly prosecute those high visibility especially Clinton and Trump?

Up in Smoke. 300 Sq. Mi. of Amazon Rainforest Lost Every Day.

Image
  The Amazon rainforest is disappearing at what should be an alarming rate. 312 sq. mi. or 808 sq. kms. every day. Over the past 30 years humans have destroyed a patch of the Amazon equal in area to the states of Texas and New Mexico . The Amazon – historically a great carbon absorber, since trees take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen – now releases more carbon than it stores, which adds to, rather helps to reduce, our global climate crisis. Deforestation rates decreased slightly from 2004 to 2012. But since then, they’re back on the rise, especially in the past couple of years, since Jair Bolsonaro became president of Brazil. In 2018, as Bolsonaro campaigned as a patriotic man of the people, scientists predicted that once the Amazon lost more than 25% of its tree cover, it would become a drier ecosystem, all because deforestation changes weather patterns (due to how trees respire), which in turn reduces rainfall. Furthermore, as the forest becomes fragmented, areas surrounded...

The Cognoscenti Syndrome

  There is a group of people I think of as the Cognoscenti, people who are well educated, very informed and of rapidly diminishing relevance. Their ranks include writers such as Chris Hedges and Glen Greenwald. These are people who have honed an almost Puritanical value system, readily finding fault in any direction. They are scathing in their attacks on Republicans and Democrats alike to the point where they become nihilists. They don't endorse. They prescribe. This is where they fail. They're unable to advocate for anything that might resonate with the public whose interests they argue are being trammeled. Donald Trump was bad but Joe Biden is scarcely better. This is where their elitism comes in.  74 million may have voted for Trump but, hey, they didn't know any better. The mob that stormed the Capitol. They were just victims of the system venting their frustrations. All the racism, bigotry, xenophobia, misogyny, white nationalism - inevitable side effects of their oppr...

Who Asks "Why?"

Every time there's a conflict between the Israelis and Palestinians, all we hear is 'why?'  Why, as in, whose fault is this? It's easier to affix blame if you can truncate the event. Pick a convenient start date, something recent. In this case we'll make it either the Israeli eviction of Arabs from Jerusalem or the scuffle that took place outside the mosque in response. If those don't work, let's go for Hamas launching unguided rockets into Israel. That's even better because it tags Hamas with the blame. The nice thing about this approach is you can just keep using it. It goes on and on, just as it has for the past half-century since the '67 war. You can even date this whole mess to the beginning of the occupation of the Palestinian territories. The Israelis are said to have called these periodic wars, "mowing the lawn." The idea is that, every now and then, you have to take these Arabs to the woodshed. And then you keep your powder dry unt...
