You can't hire ex-government people to work at news outlets--it's immoral. Ex-FBI--retired at a young age--supervisory agent, Mr. Gagliano obviously hasn't read the Michael Brown transcript where he would see an FBI agent lie through her f___king teeth to defend the indefensible. Mr. Floyd was said to have tried to pass a counterfeit 20. Mr. Brown was said to walk off with a small box of cigarillos. NEITHER needed to be killed. Neither posed a threat to a cop or to any civilian. Both dealt with xenophobic cops who had plenty of opportunity to back down and, instead, chose to KILL innocents. Read the effen transcript Mr. Gagliano and let's you and I discuss how cops are protected in this country thanks to the scumbags at the Supreme Court and on down. You're a P.O.S., Mr. Gagliano, I don't care how many Black kids you've coached! Earn your CNN pay and do your effen research before you say stupid things to the CNN viewer. Kyung Lah, why do you side wit...

What do I mean by this? Josh Campbell, for example. What unbiased view are you going to get from an ex-FBI agent? He'll defend the authorities and look the other way at everything that might put protesters in a good light. Btw, is this guy collecting a government pension at his age? That's just wrong and corrupt--even if legal. If we needed insight into the FBI then Mr. Campbell might be useful to the people; but to have his take on rioters, BS, I say. When it comes to Wall St., CNN is only too ecstatic to have Mr. Cohen, the half trillionaire, on their 7 PM show--sickening! Yea, great credibility, a man who sucked many dry in order to increase his coffers. Oh, what's that, lassie? You do know money doesn't grow on trees, no? Mr. Cohen's mullah came from WE, THE F___king people and our poorly run pension plans. Do you show your viewers the photo of the protesters using their bodies to protect a cop who had strayed from the herd. Find it on Reddit. Do you show yo...

Laura Coates, Joey Jackson, we the people need to tell the old stodgy and political hacks at SCOTUS that their cop brutality-enabling decisions need to be revisited before civil war is unleashed thanks to their shortsightedness. Let's have a layman's look at the two top decisions. Graham v. Connor The court said that "the reasonableness of a particular use of force must be judged from the perspective of a reasonable officer on the scene, rather than with the 20/20 vision of hindsight. [This and other legal material is taken from a post on PoliceOne.com] That's right SCOTUS, leave it up to the 'reasonable' officer. I, like you, am positive that the officer would admit to the use of excessive force..AND BE FIRED or imprisoned. It, of course, would never come to that because by the time the shit is even thinking of hitting the fan, the police union representatives have begun to coach the reasonable officer. In the Michael Brown case, even the FBI came to the cop...

The ever informative Harper's Magazine explains in an essay by Elisa Gabbert why coronavirus may still attempt to infect large numbers of victims from among the youth. The lesson to be learned comes from the influenza virus. I'll quote from p13 of the June edition [Readings: Sick Sad World]. A 2020 study, for example, found that people became more sociable in the forty-eight hours after exposure to the flu virus, a period in which one is contagious but asymptomatic. The infected hosts, researchers noted, were significantly more likely to head out to bars and parties.  Before you consider this coincidental, the article mentions other zombie-like viral takeovers of our brains. Most of us are familiar with toxoplasmosis which increases risk taking and rabies which makes its victims avoid water apparently because water would dilute the concentration of virus. If this phenomenon holds for coronavirus and it may, being as nothing seems to curtail the youth from evading recently ...

I don't mind the Capitalist Network News because "money talks and nobody walks," but I consider it despicable when CNN is against the people. Yes, it's easy to talk about the heinous police activity that resulted in George Floyd's senseless death; but to have former Police Chief Charles Ramsey weigh in on that death speaks volumes about where CNN stands when it comes to anyone whose constitutional rights have been violated. Read this exerpt from  https://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/news/article/13025802/boss-hogtie  : Charles Ramsey was the man--proud to the hilt--responsible for this travesty. The city had to pay up millions and Ramsey moved on to Philadelphia where those in power thought it would be great to have Ramsey's draconian antics play out in their municipality. I was personally affected by his dirtbag policies in D.C. when I was handcuffed so tightly that my hand went numb for days. There were others worse off. We were there to peacefully pro...

I received the above text in an email newsletter talking about, what else? It was sent by the LA Times. The problem I have with this text is that it implies that coronaviruses need  saliva to infect or remain infective. If that is the case, I have to disagree with the premise. If this were the case, you would stop the spread in days by having a dehumidifier going day and night--but wait, the air is dry in the winter and yet the spread is greatest at that time. Oh, they might tell you, covid spreads in Winter because people congregate indoors. Sounds plausible but why don't they then recommend dehumidification of indoor air? I hope they don't because humidity decreases air density permitting the then heavier-than-air objects like viruses to sink to a lower level away from your face. That brings up an interesting observation, though. If I am right about the importance of air density in the spread of covid, it would contribute to an explanation for the high mortality in nursin...
