Cancel the 2028 L.A. Summer Olympics; an anti Trump California opinion

 San Francisco Comical    "Hosting an Olympic Games requires working with a lawless U.S. regime — and its rights-violating security apparatus — as they openly wage war against California."  Karen Bass and Gavin Newsom: a plague on both your houses!

"Sports officials worldwide would be furious. But if we drop the Games, we might refocus on our city. Longtime Los Angeles city government official Rick Cole asked: “If we can’t pave our streets, repair our sidewalks, trim our trees, house our homeless, light our bridges and fix our fire trucks, how can we host an Olympics in just three years?' ”

"This show must not go on.

"It’s time, right now, for greater Los Angeles to halt all preparations to host the 2028 Summer Olympics. Let’s turn over these Games to a world city better positioned to host them.

"Not because Angelenos don’t love the Olympics. We are a proud Olympic city, shaped by the 1932 and 1984 Games. In normal times, the city’s incomparable international connections, entertainment assets and sports facilities would make us the perfect host for what LA 28 chair Casey Wasserman calls “the largest peacetime gathering in the history of the world.”

"But it’s no longer peacetime in Los Angeles.

"This event is now too dangerous for California. Hosting an Olympic Games requires us to work together with a lawless U.S. regime — and its rights-violating security apparatus — as it openly wages war against our city and state.

"National Special Security Events, like the Olympics, require host cities to let federal agencies take the lead during the Games.  For the 2028 Olympics, an agreement, which took effect last year, puts the U.S. Secret Service in charge of security, with support from the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security.

"All those agencies work for President Donald Trump, who has launched a war against California that includes deploying troops and secret federal police in our neighborhoods. California leaders have righteously demanded that immigration raids end and the troops leave. But those demands are incompatible with the Olympics agreement, which gives these agencies the power to surge security personnel into Los Angeles.

"Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy explicitly linked the current federal occupation of Los Angeles with the 2028 Olympics. He recently declared that Mayor Karen Bass and Gov. Gavin Newsom, by defending protesters instead of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, forced the feds to take over the city — and suggested they would do so again.

"“If this was a preview of their leadership ahead of next year’s World Cup games and the L.A. 2028 Olympics, we have bigger problems,” Duffy said." . . . More here

When Obama Began Strangling the Republic “By the Book” Part II

 John Kass

"If anyone wants to trace the Decline of Trust in Legacy Media, it begins with the media love showered upon Barack Obama. But he had a lot of help."

Obama with Brennan.

"I’ve been greatly honored to be asked to give a talk at Hillsdale College on “The Decline of Trust in Legacy Media.”

"I wouldn’t call it a lecture. Just a talk. But how should I begin?

"I thought I’d begin by calling Barack Obama up on the stage. He could lie down on a couch and begin pontificating, his favorite activity, and I’d sit nearby in a comfy overstuffed leather wing chair and take notes, asking some pertinent questions.

"Barack might consider this a sequel to my national column for johnkassnews.com on Sunday—it was carried by Real Clear Politics and by Powerline Blog titled “When Obama Began Strangling the Republic “By the Book” Part I.

"Barack began strangling the republic years ago, just about the time the media began treating him as a mythological creature. They lost all credibility about him. And he took that journalistic adoration, turned it and killed legacy media, too.

"As some of you may know, I was a reporter and lead columnist at the Chicago Tribune for some 40 years, that is, until leftist billionaire George Soros showed the Tribune and me that Soros was boss.

"And I witnessed firsthand all the reporters wiggling like puppies, all but soiling the carpets at Obama’s approach. The media treated Barack Obama as something of a winged sea creature, a Pegasus up from the beaches of Hawaii as they smoked their Hopium in every newsroom in America. Their eyes were slits. And he was their wizard of a thousand kings.

"They wanted to ride him as if he were a unicorn. They wanted to love him too. He was their fantasy black politico. There was no way they could have been objective about him, any more than a child could be objective about their first pony.

"So, to get some distance, I called a wise colleague Steve Huntley, the retired editorial writer for the Chicago Sun Times. He spent 30 years there. And I worked across the street at the Trib.

"He explained that there are many reasons the American people have lost trust in legacy media. If you had a sharp enough scalpel, you might consider the shift to exclusive subscription models, increased where partisanship has greater leverage.

“ 'And COVID 19, and Fauci. Don’t forget Fauci,” said Huntley. “And what Obama did in that White House meeting you wrote about.” . . .

Hey , Did you not hear that DNI Gabbard exposed a story with historic implications yesterday? Why the media black out? Why are you afraid to tell the truth to the American people? Ignoring the culpability of Obama and your deep state sources will not change the fact that you aided them in lying to the American people.

The Skeletons in Obama's Closet

The Skeletons in Obama's Closet - NoisyRoom.net   "With Obama’s role in Russia-gate in the news, private investigator and Substack columnist Susan Daniels says this is the time to get to the bottom of the various Obama scandals, ranging from his stolen Social Security number to his fake draft registration card, to the mysterious handling of his passport file by John Brennan, later picked to be Obama’s CIA director. Daniels’ memoir, The Rubbish Hauler’s Wife versus Barack Obama, tells the story of her fight for the truth and the public’s right to know. She also discusses with host Cliff Kincaid Obama’s young life as an alleged drug-addled gay prostitute who was abused by his communist mentor, the pervert Frank Marshall Davis."

Obama White House, Deep Staters The Real Democracy Threats 

 Skeletons are exploding from the closet of team Obama in the wake of declassified and damning documents from the Russia collusion hoax.

. . ." As Federalist Editor-in-Chief Mollie Hemingway noted Tuesday on X, the same media that covered up the Hunter Biden laptop lie — driven by many of the same intelligence community players — and the Joe Biden senility cover-up now want you to believe that the Gabbard files and other document releases are a “war on career officials.” 

“It’s the opposite. New reporting shows top Obama officials overruled their expert career staff to push the hoax,” Hemingway wrote." . . . 

:Those words may come back to haunt Obama, as the declassified intelligence community docs show just how little “reverence for the democracy that was placed in his care” the former far-left president demonstrated. His apparent interference in the 2016 election and the consequences of that meddling were definitely a threat to representative democracy."
