Living On the Diagonal

AFTER 9 DAYS OF PROTEST  I DO NOT SEE CHANGE AS REALITY We have all seen the videos of George Floyd's horrorific death at the hands of the police. We have seen the police attempt to walk back and a prosecutor who attempted to whitewash the racist brutality and only under extreme pressure arrested and charged one of four murderers. We have seen the Black Lives Matter protests begin in Minneapolis and anger explode in cities across the nation in spontanaity of the same. We have witnessed the violence, tyranny and looting instigated by outsiders more likely to be White Nationalists militias rather than the online based ANTIFA. We have heard the dialogue between black leaders, followed by the decades old white political rhetoric. And We have all seen the photo below encapusaliting a president who will go to any length, sink to any low to pursue personal gain, cling to ruthless power and incite violence.  There Are No Words Left To Describe Like so many I have complied with a "Stay...

YOUR VOTE IS NOT ONLY THE MOST CRITICAL TO DEMOCRACY, IT MAY BE MAY BE YOUR LAST When the Mid-Term campaign began in September many in the media called out the Democratic Party as weak on a clear message to sustain the expected Blue Wave to take control of Congress. The pundits may be correct. But, in recent weeks President Trump did everyone a favor to declare that “a vote for Republicans is vote for me. This is a referendum on my Presidency.” Thank you, Mr. President! Believe me that never in American History has our Freedom, our democratic process hung on a precipice that teeters in free fall toward the politics of fear and hate and where we will be clearly subjected to authoritarian rule. It is unconceivable that an American populace will be duped once again in voting for a Republican Congress and to give a thumbs-up to Donald Trump. During the twentieth century more lives were lost in wars to overturn authoritarian rule than all conflicts combined in the h...

MORE THINGS DONALD TRUMP THE PROOF IS IN THE PUTIN’ On Monday, July 16, 2018 if you viewed the live television feed regardless of network the Trump/Putin Helsinki Summit press conference, as a viewer you have access to the raw data to form your opinion to an unprecedented historic event.    The immediate and overwhelming reaction of Congress, White House and Intelligence agencies came to a consensus. This was an absolute failure of a U.S. President to stand, defend our democratic process. With Vladimir Putin standing to his left, Trump accepted his denial of election “meddling” and refused to issue any form of a reprimand or an ultimatum to Russia. As the week progressed, the networks dissected every word, facial expression and body language of both world leaders. And, as if you did not notice certain segments of the press conference and the Trump walk back (would versus wouldn’t) have aired as in a continuous loop on your wide screen. However, there ar...

STEP ONE: OBTAIN A TAX CREDIT FOR SUPPORTING GRASSROOTS CANDIDATES & NON PROFIT PUBLICATIONS (Real Facts) As we all are aware, the 2016 Presidential Campaign set new records for the rank and file, lunch bucket blue-collar and millennial voters to make affordable, reasonable donations to support the candidates and causes to which they hold dear. These are clearly tax-deductible contributions for those who do not qualify to itemize deductions cannot benefit like the big boys. The 1040-EZ form requires Congressional revision to allow legitimate political campaign donations and emergency disaster relief for the majority of taxpayers.  The major revisions below are in lines 9a, 9b, 9c & 9d with line 10 as a dollar amount to be deducted directly from the total Tax owing as a credit.  This is the White House Tax Reform Week, therefore in that spirit, a revision to the 1040EZ. (Note: This is a facsimile of the IRS document not meant for use. This replica looks much b...
