The destruction of &#8220;racist&#8221; Confederate symbols without adding the context of those Confederates being Democrats is one issue while the take down of black abolitionist Frederick Douglass was committed out of ignorance, also conveniently leaving out he was a Republican.</p>
<p>Parents have little idea of what values students are taught, that is until <a href="https://youtu.be/UJJHA6A_nz8" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">video is inconveniently leaked</a> on social media. While students clearly have problems with the traditional three basics <em>(reading, writing, arithmetic)</em>, they sadly appear to know more than enough to make any social justice provocateur proud. To keep the community organizing perpetuated, the indoctrination must continue uninterrupted, even despite COVID-19-inspired restrictions.</p>
<p>Distance learning could be a problem&#8230;.</p>

<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>The form asks parents for their signature and warns that “violation of this agreement may result in RCS removing my child from the virtual meeting.</strong>”</span><br />

<p>When confronted with the &#8220;form&#8221;, the Rutherford County Schools spokesperson used &#8220;privacy&#8221; as an excuse.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.rcschools.net/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=524097&amp;type=d&amp;pREC_ID=staff" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-14598 size-thumbnail" title="James Evans" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Evans-J-100x100.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="100" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Evans-J-100x100.jpg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Evans-J-150x150.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Evans-J-125x125.jpg 125w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Evans-J.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" /></a>“We are aware of the concern that has been raised about this distance-learning letter that was sent to parents. The intent was not to prevent parents from being involved with their children during distance learning, but it was intended to protect the academic privacy of other students in the classroom who are visible during certain virtual class sessions. We have issued new guidance to principals that parents can assist their children during virtual group lessons with permission of the instructor but should refrain from sharing or recording any information about other students in the classroom.”</span><br />

<p>So, a teacher will give a parent permission to &#8220;assist their children&#8221; but must NOT record or share what they witness. This is problematic and inconsistent on many levels.</p>
<p>Parents used to be able to audit classes, pre-Coronavirus, and could see for themselves what was taught, the classroom interaction, and also see the face of every child in the room. So much for &#8220;privacy&#8221;.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/distance-learning.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-14599" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/distance-learning-150x84.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="84" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/distance-learning-150x84.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/distance-learning-500x281.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/distance-learning-768x432.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/distance-learning.jpg 900w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>If teachers are giving students useful academic information, what&#8217;s the problem with said presentation being recorded and shared? Those who do whatever they do well usually have no problem with their good work being highlighted and documented for posterity. It&#8217;s usually those who <span style="text-decoration: underline;">aren&#8217;t</span> so good at what they do, or have something to hide, that would have a problem with their questionable activities being recorded and shared.</p>
<p>It again needs to be reminded to the general public that, in most cases, teachers are paid with taxpayer money. That means they&#8217;re not only to be held accountable to local school committees and parents but the general public. If what students are being taught is a benefit to society, cool.</p>
<p>But if students are being used and indoctrinated to ANY ideology behind the backs of their parent, then all should be concerned and culpable teachers should never be allowed to hide their activities while on the public dime.</p>

And it&#8217;s funny how one of the participants can&#8217;t be identified by the multi-million dollar professional media.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">A controversial video containing misleading information on the coronavirus was allowed to clock up millions of views before it was pulled from Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. The video was created by right-wing media outlet Breitbart. It depicts a group of people dressed in white lab coats — who call themselves “America’s Frontline Doctors” — staging a press conference outside the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C. Those in the video claim that the anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine is “a cure for Covid” and “you don’t need a mask” to slow the spread of coronavirus.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Social-media-ban.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-14332 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Social-media-ban-150x98.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="98" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Social-media-ban-150x98.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Social-media-ban-500x326.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Social-media-ban-768x501.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Social-media-ban.jpg 909w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>“This virus has a cure, it’s called hydroxychloroquine, zinc, and Zithromax,” <strong>one of the women</strong> in the video claims. “You don’t need masks, there is a cure.”</span><br />

<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">During the press conference, <strong>a speaker who identifies herself as a doctor</strong> makes a number of dubious claims, including that &#8220;you don&#8217;t need masks&#8221; to prevent spread of the coronavirus, and that recent studies showing hydroxychloroquine is ineffective for the treatment of Covid-19 are &#8220;fake science&#8221; sponsored by &#8220;fake pharma companies.&#8221;</span></p>

<p>Aside from the &#8220;right-wing media&#8221;, you can find it via the Nigerian media.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">A Nigerian-born and trained physician, Dr Stella Emmanuel, is trending on social media after delivering an impassioned COVID-19 speech in the U.S. on Monday. Speaking at a news conference in Washington, Emmanuel claimed that antimalarial drug, hydroxychloroquine, zinc, and antibacterial drug, Zithromax, were effective cures for the virus.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>The Nigerian spoke</strong> during a news conference held by a group of American doctors under the aegis of “America’s Frontline Doctors” in front of the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington DC. The doctors are holding a two-day “White Coat Summit” at the Capitol Hill to address what they call a “massive disinformation campaign” surrounding the virus.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>Emmanuel</strong> dismissed experts’ warning that hydroxychloroquine could cause serious heart problems for coronavirus patients, citing her experience with the use of the drug.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.pulse.ng/news/local/us-based-nigerian-doctor-claims-hydroxychloroquine-can-cure-covid-19/3qtmmqb" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Pulse, 7/28/20</a></p>
<p>Here is an excerpt of <a href="https://lbry.tv/@Archives:a/DoctorsForHCQ:4" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the video</a> that&#8217;s raised alarms from Silicon Valley throughout the compliant American media.</p>

As ignorance is one of social media&#8217;s most prominent epidemics, many are claiming Dr. Immanuel has found THE &#8220;cure&#8221; for COVID-19, that is not the case. She is only sharing her proven experiences based on what was previously used with much-touted, albeit squelched success.</p>

<p>Why is this incident an example of racism? Name ONE white woman who&#8217;s been censored on the big three social media platforms simultaneously? Is there something about this black woman that can&#8217;t be allowed to be seen, especially by other black people?</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Data is only as good as how it&#8217;s obtained, how it&#8217;s processed, and how the results are disseminated.</p>
<p>The recent panic regarding the latest &#8220;spike&#8221; in Coronavirus cases in the United States is being used by state and local politicians to re-shutdown their economies. While many of us have suspected the increase in deaths are being sensationalized while the corresponding death rates are very low and unreported.</p>
<p>But what if the surge in COVID-19 cases, as a result of increased testing, is also irresponsibly bogus?</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/83oZOmLGSoI" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p>Think about this: one obscure local television affiliate decided to investigate the numbers issued by their state and found the numbers totally wrong, and the one constant was the issued numbers where highly inflated as opposed to being all over the place. What are the chances of that and how many other areas around the country are being shutdown again based on consistently overinflated &#8220;positivity rates&#8221;?</p>
<p>Again, this is NOT about public safety.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s about tanking the President&#8217;s reelection trump card: the economy. If millions of Americans lose their businesses and jobs, it&#8217;s a small price to pay while state and <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2020/03/24/democrat-candy-speaker-pelosis-covid-19-wish-list-goodie-bag/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">federal politicians</a> continue to enjoy <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2020/05/02/class-envy-shutdown-politicians-have-yet-to-miss-a-paycheck/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">no break in their paychecks</a> since this all began. As long as Donald Trump is defeated, to them, that&#8217;s all that matters and making sure a few decimal points are moved in their favor doesn&#8217;t hurt.</p>
<h1><span style="color: #ff9900;">UPDATE</span></h1>
<p>It appears these inflated numbers are either a case of gross incompetence or maybe local #resistance?</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/KWckR64CjeY" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/7-15-COVID-CASES.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-14085 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/7-15-COVID-CASES-150x84.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="84" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/7-15-COVID-CASES-150x84.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/7-15-COVID-CASES-500x281.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/7-15-COVID-CASES-768x432.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/7-15-COVID-CASES.jpg 932w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Floridians depend on the coronavirus numbers, but they might not be telling the whole story. Several lawmakers say they are extremely disturbed by the findings, saying there needs to be more oversight. </span><strong><span style="color: #808080;">After FOX 35 News noticed errors in the state&#8217;s report on positivity rates, the Florida Department of Health said that some laboratories have not been reporting negative test result data to the state. </span></strong><span style="color: #808080;">Countless labs have reported a 100 percent positivity rate, which means every single person tested was positive. Other labs had very high positivity rates.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.fox35orlando.com/news/tracking-coronavirus-florida-cases-top-300k-after-10181-new-infections-are-reported-by-health-officials" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">WOFL Fox 35, 7/15/20</a></p>
<p>The Florida Department of Health is now passing the buck only because the narrative was publicly called into question. Will anyone be held accountable for the dissemination of faulty information that steers public policy or will the false narrative be blown off as to keep the economy squelched as long as possible until the November election?</p>
<h1><span style="color: #ff9900;">UPDATE</span></h1>
<p>It may be mocked as &#8220;conspiracy theory&#8221; but this is now steering into the oncoming lane.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/x0rSxXTabB4" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><span data-mce-type="bookmark" style="display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;" class="mce_SELRES_start">﻿</span></iframe></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">In an email, AdventHealth’s communication manager told FOX 35 News, <strong>&#8220;The state’s direction to Centra Care was to only report positive cases, so that’s what they are doing. You would have to ask the state why they would assign a percentage without having the total.”</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.fox35orlando.com/news/fox-35-exclusive-labs-directed-to-only-report-positive-covid-19-tests" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">WOFL Fox 35, 7/15/20</a></p>
<p>Such a &#8220;direction&#8221; would not be done in a vacuum and given the national implications, at the local level.</p>
<p>Just who would have the power to order major hospitals to issue incorrect data numbers that would be used to affect and implement public policy?</p>
<h1><span style="color: #ff9900;">UPDATE</span></h1>
<p>Chatter on Facebook appears to corroborate some of the testing anomalies mentioned.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-14119 size-full" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/FB-COVID-tests.jpg" alt="" width="482" height="665" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/FB-COVID-tests.jpg 482w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/FB-COVID-tests-109x150.jpg 109w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 482px) 100vw, 482px" /></p>
<p>We&#8217;ll see what the Florida Department of Health says about this, IF they do at all.</p>
<h1><span style="color: #ff9900;">BUT WAIT; THERE&#8217;S MORE FROM FOX 35!</span></h1>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>All it took was the recommendation from an unelected bureaucrat as the impetus to force the residents of a major metropolitan county to do tell citizens what to do with their bodies: wear a face mask in public.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/alina-alonso-october-2016.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-13704 size-thumbnail" title="Alina Alonso, October 2016 pic" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/alina-alonso-october-2016-100x100.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="100" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/alina-alonso-october-2016-100x100.jpg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/alina-alonso-october-2016-125x125.jpg 125w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" /></a><strong>Palm Beach County commissioners voted unanimously Tuesday in favor of requiring face masks to be worn in public to help prevent the spread of the deadly coronavirus. The vote was 7-0.</strong> Dr. Alina Alonso, director of the Florida Department of Health in Palm Beach County, said COVID-19 cases have &#8220;risen very, very rapidly&#8221; since the county entered Phase One of Florida&#8217;s reopening plan on May 11.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">&#8220;Our numbers are going in the wrong direction,&#8221; Dr. Alonso said.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.wflx.com/2020/06/23/live-palm-beach-county-considering-face-mask-mandate/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Fox 29 WFLX, 6/23/20</a></p>
<p>Of course, it&#8217;s obvious to most that the only reason we&#8217;re seeing a spike in coronavirus is because testing is more readily available and widespread. And in almost all of the sensational , national headlines reporting this steep rise in COVID-19 numbers, they never seem to get around to reporting a subsequent steep rise in deaths&#8230; because it isn&#8217;t happening.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #808080;">Cases of coronavirus are</span> <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/us/coronavirus-us-cases.html">increasing</a> <span style="color: #808080;">in 20 states, with dramatic spikes found in places from Florida to California. Even so, overall deaths due to coronavirus are</span> <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/us/coronavirus-us-cases.html#states">on the decline</a> </strong><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>in the U.S.</strong> Even in some places where cases are spiking, the number of people checking into hospitals and dying of the coronavirus is actually stable, or even going down. What’s going on?</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://slate.com/technology/2020/06/covid-death-rate-declining-explained.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Slate, 6/18/20</a></p>
<p>Good common sense question, but the Palm Beach County already had their minds made up; wearing face masks in public would become the mandate of the day, safety concerns would be blown on, commissioners could mock the concerned public on social media, and allowing the public to speak was a mere formality the commissioners would tolerate.</p>
<p>The national media looked at the public&#8217;s response with the predictable disdain because the &#8220;experts&#8221; aren&#8217;t being listened to and obeyed.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Some residents of Palm Beach County, Florida, erupted in anger at a commissioner&#8217;s meeting after an unanimous vote to make wearing a mask mandatory. Medical experts continue to say that wearing a mask can help contain the coronavirus pandemic.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2020/06/24/mask-mandate-florida-anger-erupts-coronavirus-vpx.cnn" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">CNN, 6/24/20</a></p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/3u0VdY7mVCw" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe><br />
So-called &#8220;medical experts&#8221; have been all over the map when it comes to predictions and remedies to the coronavirus, but they still expect the public to drop everything and do what they say because they are medical experts, and it&#8217;s easy for the media to cherry-pick those who&#8217;ll justify their parroted objectives.</p>
<p>Again, as has been happening across the United States, public policy is being driven by politicians with an agenda and given actionable information by those who weren&#8217;t elected and are unanswerable to those directly affected. <a href="http://palmbeach.floridahealth.gov/about-us/director.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Dr. Alina Alonso</a> was never elected to her position as Florida Department of Health in Palm Beach County &#8220;director&#8221;, so it can be argued her opinions shouldn&#8217;t be the final word when it comes to the implementation of public policy.</p>
<p>The political infection has expanded to Miami-Dade County.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">As</span> <span class="link"><a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/bars-in-florida-closing-alcohol-ban-coronavirus-cases-climb/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http="">Florida</a></span> <span style="color: #808080;">sees a surging number of new</span> <a href="http://cbsnews.com/coronavirus" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">coronavirus</a> <span style="color: #808080;">cases, Miami-Dade County announced that it plans to close all beaches ahead of the Fourth of July weekend. The state on Friday reported an all-time high of nearly 9,000 new confirmed COVID-19</span> <a href="https://floridahealthcovid19.gov/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">cases</a><span style="color: #808080;">, topping the state&#8217;s previous record of 5,500 cases. Violators of these policies are subject to a second-degree criminal penalty of up to $500 and 180 days in jail.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/miami-closes-beaches-july-4-weekend-coronavirus-cases-surge-florida/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">CBS News, 6/27/20</a></p>
<p>No mainstream media mention of a corresponding rise in COVID-19 death, but so much for properly informing the public.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-11628 size-thumbnail" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/CDC-100x100.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="100" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/CDC-100x100.jpg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/CDC-150x150.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/CDC-500x500.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/CDC-125x125.jpg 125w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/CDC.jpg 750w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" /><strong>The Centers for Disease Control estimates the coronavirus may have infected 10 times more Americans than known, nearly 24 million, meaning the infection fatality rate is no higher than one half of 1%.</strong> That percentage, which is higher than other current estimates, nevertheless sharply contrasts with the alarming estimate of 3.4% announced March 3 by the director general of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesusin, which fueled the global lockdowns.</span><br />

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday, based on posts found readily on social media, we created a meme.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-13656" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC-500x500.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="500" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC-500x500.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC-150x150.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC-100x100.jpg 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC-768x768.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC-125x125.jpg 125w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC.jpg 1000w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></a></p>
<p>Much time was spent trying to verify if the &#8220;deleted&#8221; Tweet by Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was indeed something she authored. We couldn&#8217;t prove beyond a reasonable doubt if she Tweeted it or not but hours after screenshots began circulating around social media, @AOC addressed the Tweet in question.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC-Tweet.png" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-13663" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC-Tweet-500x492.png" alt="" width="400" height="394" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC-Tweet-500x492.png 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC-Tweet-150x148.png 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC-Tweet-100x100.png 100w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AOC-Tweet.png 572w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" /></a></p>
<p>Rep. Ocasio-Cortez has made numerous problematic comments during her short tenure on Capitol Hill, has hundreds of thousands of adoring social media followers and we all know they will cover for Democrats and stifle conservatives on their various platforms. And as far as taking politicians at their word just because they&#8217;re politicians, let&#8217;s not forget the cover <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2016/09/15/federal-politicians-can-legally-constitutionally-slander-anyone/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the Constitution grants them</a>.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">The <strong>Senators and Representatives shall in all Cases</strong>, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, <strong>be privileged from Arrest </strong>during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and <strong>for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">— </span><span style="color: #ff0000;">United States Constitution (Article I, Section 6, Clause 1)</span></p>
<p><a href="https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/rush-limbaugh-medal-tarnished/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-13666 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Snopes-Limbaugh-150x127.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="127" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Snopes-Limbaugh-150x127.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Snopes-Limbaugh.jpg 500w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>In other words, as long as they&#8217;re on the clock, politicians can say anything without fear of legal ramifications and it&#8217;s not like AOC hasn&#8217;t said questionable things before. But as long as Democrats have social media and other so-called fact checkers covering for them. The same &#8220;independent fact-checkers&#8221; who look the other way when <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2020/02/09/liberals-share-racist-limbaugh-medal-of-freedom-quote-from-the-onion/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">mistruths are widely and gleefully shared</a> about Republicans.</p>
<p>Facebook is one of them and the AOC meme we posted caught the attention of their &#8220;independent fact-checkers&#8221;.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/FB-fact-check.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-13668 size-full" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/FB-fact-check.jpg" alt="" width="479" height="743" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/FB-fact-check.jpg 479w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/FB-fact-check-97x150.jpg 97w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 479px) 100vw, 479px" /></a></p>
<p>One should rightly ask why this particular &#8220;deleted Tweet&#8221; is garnering so much attention from social media &#8220;fact checkers&#8221;? It seems like a bit of overreach considering the millions of posts of questionable content shared on a daily basis. AOC claims she didn&#8217;t Tweet it but she also DIDN&#8217;T denounce the sentiment as something she doesn&#8217;t agree with and/or it wasn&#8217;t a directive she heard from higher-up Democrats on the Hill.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff9900;">The content of the &#8220;deleted Tweet&#8221; is really the issue</span></h2>
<p>If keeping businesses closed and putting people out of work is acceptable, communications between Capitol Hill and the states were made directing them to keep their economies squelched just to damage the economy prior to a presidential election, that would be a huge admission with major ramifications for those participating. And those who are doing overtime &#8220;fact-checking&#8221; and covering for AOC include those who are outspoken in their partisanship and have the means to act on it.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a href="https://www.projectveritas.com/news/facebook-content-moderator-if-someone-is-wearing-a-maga-hat-i-am-going-to/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-13664 size-large" title="&quot;Facebook Content Moderator: ‘If Someone is Wearing a MAGA Hat, I Am Going to Delete Them for Terrorism’&quot;" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Project-Veritas-Facebook-500x284.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="284" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Project-Veritas-Facebook-500x284.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Project-Veritas-Facebook-150x85.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Project-Veritas-Facebook-768x437.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Project-Veritas-Facebook.jpg 957w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px" /></a></p>
<p>So, for the time being, we&#8217;ll leave our meme up and stand by our instincts for three simple reasons:</p>
<ol>
<li style="list-style-type: none;">
<ol>
<li><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Harry-Reid.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-2306 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Harry-Reid-150x84.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="84" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Harry-Reid-150x84.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Harry-Reid.jpg 480w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>The First Amendment</li>
<li>Politicians can say ANYTHING they want and are Constitutionally protected</li>
<li>So-called &#8220;fact-checkers&#8221; are hand-picked partisans</li>
<li>IF the Tweet was a reflection of actual Democrat strategy, this could be explosive</li>
</ol>
</li>
</ol>
<p>The overreaction from the left is telling. They&#8217;re squelching the inconvenient message in the name of the messenger.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Donald-Trump-ear.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-73 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Donald-Trump-ear-150x87.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="87" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Donald-Trump-ear-150x87.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Donald-Trump-ear-768x445.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Donald-Trump-ear-500x290.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Donald-Trump-ear.jpg 940w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>The economy was President Trump&#8217;s reelection ace in the hole. Thanks to COVID-19, the economy was seriously damaged and the political actions resulted in many long-established brands permanently closed, millions of employees losing their jobs, all while the political class made sure they were financially untouched. Punishing Americans so Democrats can win an election is not beyond something they&#8217;d be willing and able to carry out.</p>

We&#8217;re told they are the go-to when it comes to any important information regarding all things COVID-19.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re also being told we MUST where masks when it comes to legally entering businesses; we say &#8220;legally&#8221; because those protesting appear to have been given an exemption from social distancing and everything associated with Coronavirus protections.</p>
<p>But as hypocrisy and misinformation is always at play when we&#8217;re talking about liberals, why do we have to wear a mask to ride in an Uber or frequent a 7-Eleven when the World Health Organization told us we didn&#8217;t need to&#8230; in MARCH?</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/zV-yDdt72bw" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>If you do not have any respiratory symptoms, such as fever, cough, or runny nose, you do not need to wear a medical mask.</strong> When used alone, masks can give you a false feeling of protection and can even be a source of infection when not used correctly.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://youtu.be/M4olt47pr_o" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">World Health Organization, 3/9/20</a></p>
<p>And Dr. April Baller says not to reuse a mask. Hello&#8230;!?</p>
<p>That was then. Now, it&#8217;s JUNE.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, many individuals are curious about the proper use of fabric masks.</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://youtu.be/ciUniZGD4tY" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">World Health Organization, 6/5/20</a></p>
<p>If everything the World Health Organization is the absolute final word, WHY are we still being told to wear masks when they say it&#8217;s not necessary, especially when they can&#8217;t even make up their minds?</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s bad enough thousands of vulnerable senior citizens were allowed to die in seclusion from family members because of a decision by an elected official devoid of common sense&#8230;.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Cuomo-042320.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-13143" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Cuomo-042320-150x83.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="83" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Cuomo-042320-150x83.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Cuomo-042320-500x277.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Cuomo-042320.jpg 611w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>New York’s nursing homes weren’t allowed to challenge a controversial order to admit patients with the coronavirus, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Thursday — even though it’s been blamed for spreading the deadly disease among residents. </span><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>“They don’t have a right to object. That is the rule and that is the regulation and they have to comply with that,”</strong> Cuomo said during his daily briefing in Albany.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/04/23/nursing-homes-cant-reject-coronavirus-patients-cuomo-says/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">New York Post, 4/23/20</a></p>
<p>New York Governor Andrew Cuomo&#8217;s &#8220;rule&#8221; had deadly consequences.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Gov-Cuomo.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-13144 size-medium" title="New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo | Spencer Platt/Getty Images" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Gov-Cuomo-150x100.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="100" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Gov-Cuomo-150x100.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Gov-Cuomo-500x333.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Gov-Cuomo-768x512.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Gov-Cuomo-360x240.jpg 360w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Gov-Cuomo-600x400.jpg 600w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Gov-Cuomo.jpg 1160w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Nearly two months later, <strong>more than 2,300 New York nursing home and assisted facility residents have died from Covid-19</strong>, with another 2,500-plus presumed to have died from the virus, according to</span> <a href="https://www.health.ny.gov/statistics/diseases/covid-19/fatalities_nursing_home_acf.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">new state Department of Health county-level data</a><span style="color: #808080;">.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.politico.com/states/new-york/albany/story/2020/05/06/cuomo-under-fire-for-response-to-covid-19-at-nursing-homes-1282821" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Politico, 5/6/20</a></p>
<p>Governor Andrew Cuomo is now forcing businesses to deny service in New York City to anyone not wearing a mask. Did he think including Brooklyn residents Chris Rock and Rosie Perez in his daily presser would take the sting out his new mandate?</p>
<p>On <a href="https://www.governor.ny.gov/news/amid-ongoing-covid-19-pandemic-governor-cuomo-issues-executive-order-authorizing-businesses" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the governor&#8217;s website</a>, the YouTube video of the press conference is embedded. However, the media Q&amp;A which immediately followed was <a href="https://youtu.be/Ay_R2fgQd8Y?t=2010" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">abruptly edited out</a> to prevent public viewing and for good reason.</p>
<p>We present the end of the omitted Q&amp;A segment&#8230;.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/UPR6HA_18BM" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Did he really think laughing about another possible Coronavirus death was apropos? Meanwhile, his paraphrasing of the comments of a student on spring break was a tad embellished.</p>
<p>Obviously, someone in the governor&#8217;s office realized that few would laugh with Cuomo&#8217;s reaction to Chris Rock&#8217;s brand of morbid humor. Could be one reason why so many didn&#8217;t want New Yorkers fleeing COVID-19 into their states.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff9900;">FACT CHECK</span></h2>
<p>There is no indication that spring break partygoer Brady Sluder has died. He <em>was</em> shamed into <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/24/us/coronavirus-brady-sluder-spring-break.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">issuing a public apology</a>.</p>

<p>She took an opportunity during a May 15, 2020 White House Rose Garden event to ask President Trump on why some in his administration wear them and why some do not.

<p>Must have been because she got an &#8220;all clear&#8221; and thought the camera feed was turned off.</p>

We find that social distancing is associated with a statistically-significant reduction in the doubling rate for all but three states. At the same time, <strong>we do not find significant evidence that social distancing has resulted in a reduction in the number of daily confirmed cases</strong>. Instead, social distancing has merely stabilized the spread of the disease.</span><br />

<p>How many so-called &#8220;ambassadors&#8221; roam the streets, looking for those who aren&#8217;t obeying their fearless leaders and reporting them for possible detention and/or arrest? Redefining words when it suits their agenda again.</p>

<p>Given the nature and stereotype of the &#8220;rap group&#8221;, why would anyone expect them to obey the law, let alone what&#8217;s supposed to be a temporary guideline? Outside of some Democrat mayors, it appears the most angry about the infringment on their growing safe space are white liberals, and liberals are liberals worldwide.</p>

Right now, it’s Lord of the Flies on social media and people are turning on one another faster than ferrets down a Yorkshireman’s trousers. <strong>The suburbs are infested with the kind of people who, had they been living in Berlin in 1938, might have been inclined to whisper, “Psst, Sturmscharführer, there are Jews living in number seven.”</strong></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">I have never seen white South Africans so demanding, judgemental and united in wanting to “do the right thing”. If only they had been this outspoken during apartheid. <strong>Facebook is awash in posts from self-appointed informants – people who were almost certainly prefects at school.</strong> In my area, a woman is asking if anyone has a drone to monitor the streets. Ideally, I imagine, a weaponised one capable of swooping in and firing poisoned darts into an errant cyclist’s back.</span><br />

<p>Interesting and pertinent comparisons.</p>
<p>And how about some new accessories for the tech-dependent snitches?</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Bracelet.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-13024 size-medium" title="Social distancing bracelet" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Bracelet-150x85.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="85" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Bracelet-150x85.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Bracelet-500x282.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Bracelet-768x433.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Bracelet.jpg 819w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/av/technology-52646869/wristband-helps-workers-maintain-social-distancing" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Wristband helps workers maintain social distancing</a></strong></p>
<p>Obviously, this will not only tell the wearer when he or she is too close to another individual, but it probably collects data on how many &#8220;violations&#8221; were performed. How long before it can <em>(and will)</em> deliver electric shocks, just like those wonderful dog collars that punish when a boundary is breached?</p>

<p>This is purely a personal problem.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/fuck-trump.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-9608" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/fuck-trump-500x606.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="182" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/fuck-trump-500x606.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/fuck-trump-124x150.jpg 124w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/fuck-trump.jpg 631w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>While conservatives tolerate liberals sharing their environments, we&#8217;ve seen and heard of numerous instances where leftists freak out if their precious areas are polluted by speech or imagery they find personally offensive, even to the point of having said offender fired and/or expelled. If anyone is losing friends, it&#8217;s liberals who extract themselves from those who dare not capitulate to their demands of social distancing.</p>
<p>Next they&#8217;ll be lamenting their self-imposed, lonely, COVID-19 mental illness.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">“<strong>The mental health and well-being of whole societies have been severely impacted by this crisis and are a priority to be addressed urgently</strong>,” Devora Kestel, head of the W.H.O.’s mental health department said.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/14/world/live-coronavirus-tracker.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">New York Times, 5/14/20</a></p>
<p>Like any and all those who&#8217;ve recently died and having it being documented as a result of COVID-19, liberals will try to blame their psychosis on the virus. But like other variations on the Coronavirus theme, progressive insanity has long since predated the current pandemic even though the symptoms are now much more pronounced.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Not saying Weija Jiang is smart enough to have such foresight and her question to President Trump was more insidious, but it clearly set up what&#8217;s going to be the coming narrative.</p>

<p>President Donald Trump is a racist.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><a href="https://news.yahoo.com/women-reporters-unite-weijia-jiang-151033584.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Women Reporters Unite With Weijia Jiang Against Trump’s Racist &amp; Sexist Media Attacks</a></strong></p>
<p>Simple and easy for the left to retain and recite.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Comey-Brennan-Clapper.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-12483 size-medium" title="Comey, Brennan and Clapper" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Comey-Brennan-Clapper-150x89.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="89" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Comey-Brennan-Clapper-150x89.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Comey-Brennan-Clapper-500x296.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Comey-Brennan-Clapper-600x360.jpg 600w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Comey-Brennan-Clapper.jpg 608w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Despite their efforts to force President Trump to respond to the Twitter explosion of #ObamaGate, the media knows exactly what&#8217;s happening and their Russia-collusion hoax is imploding, despite their best efforts for over three years, before their eyes.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><a href="https://nypost.com/2020/05/11/looks-like-president-obama-ordered-up-phony-russiagate-scandal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">It looks like President Obama ordered up phony RussiaGate scandal</a></strong></p>
<p>They know what the newly-released transcripts of Obama-era officials reveal about the lies they said on numerous cable television programs and in print. The media knows everything we know about the misdeeds of federal law enforcement and intelligence employees bent on stopping candidate Trump from getting elected, sabotaging his Transition Team&#8217;s effort and derailing his Administration with investigations built from faulty documents and strong-arming those they were investigating.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><a href="https://thefederalist.com/2020/05/11/why-did-obama-tell-the-fbi-to-hide-its-activities-from-the-trump-administration/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Why Did Obama Tell The FBI To Hide Its Activities From The Trump Administration?</a></strong></p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Crossfire-Hurricane.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-12969 size-medium" title="Crossfire Hurricane players" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Crossfire-Hurricane-150x137.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="137" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Crossfire-Hurricane-150x137.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Crossfire-Hurricane-500x458.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Crossfire-Hurricane.jpg 640w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>It can&#8217;t be said enough that none of the players involved would ever embark on these tasks without getting a nod from a superior who got a nod from a superior who got a nod on up. At some point then-President Barack Obama had to have not only known, by okay&#8217;d all of the nefarious activities now coming to light.</p>
<p>When asking if Obama can be held legally accountable for actions committed during his presidency, the answer is usually &#8220;no&#8221;, but let&#8217;s also not forget that that goalpost has been moved against President Trump for most of his presidency.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">The Justice Department’s policy that a sitting president cannot be indicted rests on the assertion that prosecuting a president would so impair his ability to perform the duties of his office that it would amount to an unconstitutional violation of the separation of powers.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Even if there are reasons to question the legitimacy of DOJ’s policy, it is unlikely to change anytime soon. Instead, it’s more important to focus on the policy’s most significant limitation and when it is lifted: whatever protection from prosecution a sitting president enjoys comes to an end when he or she leaves office.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.justsecurity.org/65772/yes-trump-could-be-indicted-if-he-leaves-office-in-2021-but-is-that-likely/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Just Security, 8/13/19</a></p>
<p>If the left is just waiting to pounce and arrest a future Former President Trump for everything surrounding Russian interference in the 2016 election we know didn&#8217;t happen but you can never underestimate the resolve of those who&#8217;ll never admit they bought bullshit because they really wanted it to be true.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/durham-moving-full-throttle-on-russia-probe-review-with-top-federal-prosecutors-involved-sources" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Durham Moving Full Throttle on Russian Probe Review</a></strong></p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Obama.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-12972 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Obama-150x98.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="98" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Obama-150x98.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Obama-500x327.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Obama.jpg 762w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>There&#8217;s a possibility Former President Obama could be in legal jeopardy <em>(the case could be made for leading a coup d&#8217;etat)</em> and that could be why the Democrat left is so eager to try and laugh off #ObamaGate, discredit <em>(again)</em> Attorney General William Barr, and U.S. Prosecutor John Durham. There are no private citizens who could have been engaged in similar conduct against a sitting United States president and expect to see the outside of a prison cell for the remainder of his or her lifetime. This is the really all those involve are potentially facing and when the heat starts getting applied, some will be more than willing to rat someone out for leniency, if not immunity.</p>
<p>And when some of those rats start point at Obama, there&#8217;s going to be only one possible strategy left to be played; one that&#8217;s worked so well for so long: the race card. They&#8217;ll say President Trump is a racist and the very people saying it will be know liars.</p>

There will be more, there always are. The only time you see them on cable news programs is when they can be used and they&#8217;ll be willing participants&#8230; for free (&#8220;exposure&#8221;), as usual.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re well past kitchen sink when it comes to what&#8217;s left for liberals to throw at Donald Trump but the stakes have been raised.</p>

<p>The 2020 Election is looming, Democrats have a cringe-worthy candidate and the president who they said was the &#8220;smartest ever&#8221; may have been proven wrong because he thought he could wreck candidate Trump and depended on a President Hillary to hide the bodies. Not so smart after all and the only excuse Democrats will have is that we&#8217;ll find out the truth behind his dirty deeds ONLY because Barack Obama is half black.</p>
<p>Screwed up logic but consider whom we&#8217;re dealing with.</p>
