ghostsinthemachine's JournalTIME: Trump's many, many, many ties to Russia (8-02-16)
His dodge is a classic magician’s trick
Russian intelligence agencies have allegedly recently digitally broken into four different American organizations that are affiliated either with Hillary Clinton or the Democratic Party since late May. All of the hacks appear designed to benefit Donald Trump’s presidential aspirations in one fashion or another.
Remember this? http://time.com/4433880/donald-trump-ties-to-russia/. It's all laid out.
Creative sign ideas for marches, protests etc...
For now, one side will be
"It's Otro (morning) in America".
And I'm not in love with that.
"Dough-bre-oh Utro is good morning btw, and I greet my Trump supporters friends that way every morning.
So, when do we start, all of US, marching in the streets
And using other methods of civil disobedience? After that "press conference", the time is TODAY. Organize, take it out where people can see it. Don the Con must be stopped. And the only way that happens is if we all start marching. Everyday until Jan 20th.
Interesting. The SLA, Patty Hearst, S.W.A.T. teams
http://www.alternet.org/visions/do-we-owe-military-style-police-swat-teams-wild-story-patty-hearst-and-sla
A lot i did not know. I once stayed in an apartment complex with Patty and others in Carmichael (by Sacramento) Ca. Didnt know it at the time, but they killed a lady in a bank there during that period, but left the apartments.
Ive always been facisinated by the story and now i have a better idea.
Do We Owe Military-Style Police Swat Teams to the Wild Story of Patty Hearst and the SLA?
The dramatic kidnapping and deadly inferno are a crazy slice of the 1960s.

I asked author Brad Schreiber, “Why is your new book about the kidnapping of Patty Hearst important now?”
He replied, “Revolution’s End pinpoints the moment in history, the shootout and fire by law enforcement in May 1974, broadcast live on TV, that led to police departments across the country asking the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) to help them set up their own SWAT teams. In a post-Ferguson America, with the Standing Rock battle, we cannot overlook the importance of this beginning of police militarization.”
(Inside the pages, he points out that such militarization is due in major part to the Department of Defense’s 1033 Program, which has transferred more than $5 billion in Army military hardware to local law enforcement since 1997.)
He continued, “Also, the creation of the false front Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA), which destroyed a legitimate leftist movement, unfairly, reminds us to look carefully at major events and at who is being blamed, such as 9/11 being falsely attributed to Iraq.”
A diligent researcher, Schreiber traces African-American Donald “Cinque” DeFreeze’s background from boyhood when his father attacked him with a baseball bat and a hammer—his father also broke his arm twice when he was ten and again when he was twelve—all the way to doing time in prison where he met Colston Westbrook.
Counter-Sting Catches James OKeefe Network Attempting To Sow Chaos At Trumps Inauguration
Counter-Sting Catches James O’Keefe Network Attempting To Sow Chaos At Trump’s Inauguration
The stinger gets stung.

WASHINGTON ― A left-wing political group released a new video Monday of a counter-sting that has uncovered evidence of right-wing activists trying to sow chaos at Donald Trump’s inaugural ceremony, an effort to portray critics of Trump who march against him as violent fringe figures.
The counter-sting, carried out by The Undercurrent and Americans Take Action, a project of a previous target of provocateur James O’Keefe, managed to surreptitiously record elements of O’Keefe’s network offering huge sums of money to progressive activists if they would disrupt the ceremony and “put a stop to the inauguration” and the related proceedings to such a degree that donors to the clandestine effort would “turn on a TV and maybe not even see Trump.” To have riots blot out coverage of Trump, the donor offered “unlimited resources,” including to shut down bridges into D.C.
The Undercurrent, led by executive producer Lauren Windsor, is sponsored by American Family Voices, which was among a constellation of groups infiltrated by O’Keefe’s Project Veritas during the presidential campaign, an effort to link Democrats with voter fraud.

Sister marches for Women's March January 21.
https://www.womensmarch.com/sistersSISTER MARCHES
Sister Marches are solidarity events inspired by the Women's March on Washington, and organized by volunteers around the world. If you can't make it to Washington, D.C. on January 21, join or host a Sister March near you.
Here we go. Get out, do something. I'll be at mine in Sacramento, cancer or not.
What ELSE is goin on on (anti)inauguration day?
In DC...http://www.jambands.com/news/2017/01/03/john-kadlecik-oteil-burbridge-aron-magner-and-jeff-franca-to-play-dc-show-on-inauguration-day/. Leave it to the jambanders to step up. Should be a great show too.
There is an event at the AfNational museum of African Americans as well but I am having trouble finding it. There are many DC anti Trump events planned.
If you know of an event post it by putting the city,state in the title line then posting below the facts, flyers, info etc..
So, what are YOU going to do?
Once again we have a President that we all vehemently disagree with. So what are we (really YOU) going to do about it?
Keep visiting DU?
Start protesting on inauguration day? Stop protesting the next day?
Sign online petitions?
Help with voter registration efforts?
I did all that shit in 2000, starting with a protest in SF on inauguration day. I protested the shit out of the wars, for medical pot, the entire Bush term. I felt it had little effect.
BTW, in DC there are a number of anti Trump events on inauguration night.
