Above is
Isaiah's The WORLD TODAY JUST NUTS "Tara asks WWPD -- What Would Putin Do?" and hopefully Tara Reade will stay in Russia and never impose on the US again.
There's a lot I planned to write about Thursday night but it's no longer Thursday night and I need to get to bed.
I do want to make one point tonight, briefly, (this morning) and that is, thank you, C.I. She called out this wave of hate and she was right to do it. And she was it with the attacks on BROS. My grandmother came across an article on BROS which was that hideous Ben Shapiro insisting that he wasn't anti-gay because he was attacking BROS. That's what he was saying last fall. Of course, now we know that his whole thing has been about attacking everything LGBTQ+ to tear that community down. He's been exposed due to his own big mouth. So, as my grandmother pointed out to me, it was about being anti-gay.
She said, "Stan, everyone with a platform was silent and treated it as though it was just happening but this was organized and it was the first real shot in these attacks. She (C.I.) saw it and she stood up immediately. Please note that at your site and please tell her that she made a difference."
And I did. My grandmother had a son who died of AIDS (my uncle, of course). He was gay. She takes these attacks on LGBTQ_ people very seriously, as we all should.
I'm tired or I'd write more about this and about NETFLIX. Sorry.
Going out with C.I.'s "Iraq snapshot:"
Thursday, June 1, 2023. Tara Reade's running a new con, Margaret
Kimberly plays Dolly Parton in 9 TO 5 -- who's been saying it -- we all
point to Tara and say in our best Lily Tomlin, "She's been saying it!",
the IMF wants to further hobble Iraq, and much more.
How do we deal with insanity?
I think in this country, we practice denial.
First
off, Margaret, your definition of defect is wrong as any person aware
of the many artists that defected to the US from the USSR could tell
you. Second, crazy Tara's the one using the term -- or did you not make
it through that video broadcast?
Tara Reade from her 'press conference' in Russia: As far as, like, going to another safe haven, I mean, there are many
Americans here [in Russia] -- and I don't want to out a bunch of Americans -- but there
are people here that are coming to Russia -- much like back in the day
when Soviet Union people defected over to the US. Now you have the
opposite,
So if you don't like people using the term, take it up with crazy herself.
Oh, look, it's Sabby Sabs, now our latter day Jerry Falwell.
Remember
The Clinton Chronicles? Yeah, that's the crazy Sabby Sabs is now
embracing and spreading -- and I didn't think my opinion of her could go
any lower.
Crazed Tara Reade departs to Russia
and wants to defect claiming her life is at risk, that people want to
kill her. Maybe the one behind you in the buffet line, Tara, but the
rest of us don't really care about you at all. She's in danger!
Danger! She must move to Russia! And then -- so brave -- she must risk
newfound safety in newfound motherland by holding a press
conference!!!!!
She's a fat lying con artist. Let's grasp that right away.
If you actually bothered to listen to that 'press conference,' it should have struck you as so familiar.
Tara
is a con artist and has been all of her life. That doesn't mean she
wasn't assaulted. It does mean she cons people and she's not a very
good con artist. She goes on RISING or whatever in 2020 and she's just
glad to be there and she's so safe and feels so good and this support is
just amazing and wonderful. Then she burns these same people after she
takes what she can get from them.
You may
remember Sabby Sabs joined Tara in trashing AOC recently for never
saying a word. If you don't remember it, you won't find Sabby's Tweet
because she deleted it after we pointed out here that AOC actually spoke
up in defense of Tara in real time.
That
is classic Tara Reade. People busted their rears to defend her and she
didn't care. She was and remains a joke and an ungrateful one at that.
I
love how she's got all these people cheering her on at her Twitter feed
and coming up behind their cheers are their comments about how Trump
needs a second term. Her new crowd does not oppose sexual assault.
They're all for it. But they hate Joe Biden. So 'survivor' Tara
'believe all women' Reade gets cozy with a crowd that believes no
women. That tells you the cess pool Tara bathes in.
In
fairness, a cess pool may be the only thing she can fit into, she just
keeps getting fatter and fatter. Where are they hosing her off at next
-- to be Pee Wee Herman about it.
Tara's
a user and a con artist. And that Sabby deleted her Tweet instead of
correcting it goes a long way towards explaining how she became the 21st
century Jerry Falwell hawking The Biden Body Count.
So
Tara burns her Democratic bridge -- not left, she was too stupid and
insipid to be left. So then she's on Tucker and other right-wing shows
and, golly gosh, thank you all for your support, I feel so safe and
trusted and I really appreciate you.
Did you
catch the damn 'press conference'? It was exactly like that -- again --
because the bad con artist just keeps playing the same con. Thank you,
Russia, for believing in me and I feel safe and welcomed and . . .
Spare
us. While the willful idiots like Sabby play along and indulge Tara's
crazy, those of us who can connect the dots caught on long ago.
The
kindest thing Ava and I ever did for Tara was not review her book.
Clearly, no one read it. It was one inconsistency after another.
Liars
get assaulted and liars get raped. The fact that she's a liar doesn't
mean that she wasn't assaulted. (Speaking of lies. I'm finding it hard
to believe that Tara -- grifter that she was -- lived in the 12th
district in 2020. She keeps insisting she wrote Nancy Pelosi about what
happened because Nancy was her Congress person. I want a former
address and a voters registration card before I believe that. She made
the claim in the video and did so in her lying voice that always tells
on her.)
Tara was a problem from day one.
I'm
not talking about her changing stories. A victim of assault can change
her or his story. It doesn't mean that they're lying. It most often
means that they don't feel comfortable discussing it -- for any number
of reasons.
I never found that a problem for her.
I did find her glaring stupidity a huge problem.
She is a geopolitical analyst -- she insists this week and that's got to be the funniest line of the week.
Listening
to her prattle on during her initial phase of discussing her assault --
as Tara told us how the world was -- was hearing a college freshman who
never cracked a book tell you the history of the United States. It was
a bunch of cliches and a bunch of mistakes. And it wasn't a left
perspective. It was a partisan perspective.
She
was Diane Chambers -- serving up words that don't really mean anything
and in no way demonstrate that she was educated but that can fool the
ones who don't know better or who are barely paying attention.
Then she was the Tucker fan and she had all of the 'insight' that only a Mother Tucker could provide.
And
now she's found Russia. In grad school, I wrote a paper about a
central American country that basically thrived by pitting the US and
the USSR against each other. Tara is now that country -- probably she's
a bit bigger than that country but she is that country.
Russia, watch out. She's going to turn on you like she does everyone else.
If
Joe Biden was giving kill orders, I kind of believe that the mother of
Navy Joan would be way, way, ahead of Tara on the list.
And in what world is Tara credible anymore?
I'm
serious. She's made herself a loon over the last years and she's not
believable. She herself is not believable. So there's no need to kill
her for something she says happened in the 90s that's already been
discussed at length.
She didn't get her fair
share of media! Because she's a damn fool. We said here, the minute
Alyssa Milano started Tweeting about Tara, that Alyssa was getting that
from Time's Up! and that Tara needed to do a lawsuit.
Tara and her co-horts did nothing. Many months later, we learn what a fraud Time's Up! actually was.
Tara
blew every chance because she was a stupid idiot. That's not fair.
She was working a con so she might have been too busy to pursue chances.
But she is a con artist.
And
her latest con is that she knows so much and is so valuable that Joe
Biden wants her dead and she's had to flee the country for her safety --
and probably to get away from several creditors, knowing Tara.
I'm
just not in the mood for this nonsense. I don't think any of us who
lived through the 90s are in the mood for this nonsense.
Joe Biden is not coming after Tara or sending people to get Tara.
No one really believes her anymore.
It
was always a tough case for her because no matter how many pictures
from the early 90s she floated to the press, she was still grossly obese
in the present and most people still confuse rape with sexual desire
and think you have to be attractive to be raped.
That was strike one.
Strike
two? How about all the predators she spent 2022 and 2023 cozying up
to? Amber Tamblyn is not someone whose integrity is in question. No
one's disputing her claims about James Woods -- except James Woods.
But
there's Tara "I'm an assault survivor" reTweeting James Woods. There's
Tara defending registered sex offender Scott Ritter (who went to
prison, who was convicted in a court of law -- after his third
arrest).
She's a con artist and that was part of her makeover for her right-wing self.
It's one strike after another on her.
Does that mean she wasn't assaulted?
No, it doesn't.
But
at this point, and now with the Russia defection, no one should waste
their breath on her anymore. She is a known liar and she lies
repeatedly. It does go to character and, yes, after awhile her actions
and her lies bring into question whether anything she says is truthful.
As a witness, she's no longer believable and no one should waste their time on her.
And
the 'gift' there for Tara is, since no one believes her, she can stop
fretting that someone's trying to kill her and stop pretending she's a
'whistle-blower.'
She's Russia's problem now. Sadly, we still have Sabby Sabbs.
Not a Sam Seder fan, but we'll note this clip of THE MAJORITY REPORT.
Meanwhile,
Margaret Griffiths (ANTI-WAR.COM) notes, "During May in Iraq, at least
53 people were killed, and
29 more were wounded in violent incidents. In
April,
at least 47 people were killed, and 65 more were wounded." At least.
In part, "at least" due to the fact that when noting the Turkish
governments attacks on Iraq, she only figures in guerillas. The
Yazidis, for example, aren't part of the count. Unless the Turkish
government has labeled them "guerillas" and then she'll count them.
THE NATIONAL, presumably with a straight face, offers, "Iraq needs fiscal discipline and wide-ranging structural reforms to reduce its economic vulnerabilities as
foreign exchange market volatility
and a drop in crude production continue to slow its growth momentum,
the International Monetary Fund has said." What Iraq needs is not
"fiscal discipline," it needs to end corruption. Iraq is not short of
money, it brings in billions. And then, due to government corruption,
that money never goes to helping the people.
REUTERS notes,
"Iraq's May oil revenue was $7.3 billion with an average price per
barrel of $71.30, the ministry said in a statement." There are
countries that never see that amount of income. Iraq sees it but never
gets improved due to the theft that takes place. The IMF always
preaches the same strategy and it doesn't work and it's not going to
work in Iraq. Hopefully, the Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani will be
heeded this time and not ignored. He earlier called out these efforts
to hobble Iraq.
Iraq's shrunken and conflict-scarred
Christian community is launching a new television channel as part of
efforts to save their dying language, spoken for more than 2,000 years.
Syriac, an ancient dialect of Aramaic, has
traditionally been the language spoken by Christians in Iraq and
neighbouring Syria, mostly in homes but also in some schools and during
church services.
However, Syriac-speaking communities in
the two countries have declined over the years, owing to decades of
conflict driving many to seek homes in safer countries. In Iraq, the
Christian population is thought to have fallen by more than two-thirds
in just over two decades.
"It's true that we speak Syriac at home,
but unfortunately I feel that our language is disappearing slowly but
surely," said Mariam Albert, a news presenter on the Syriac-language
Al-Syriania television channel.
Iraq's government launched the channel in
April to help keep the language alive. It has around 40 staff and offers
a variety of programming, from cinema to art and history.
Meanwhile, some are bothered by the kingdom of Jordan's decision to allow
the Baath Party to participate in the political process. In Iraq,
Saddam Hussein was the figurehead for the Baath Party. The Baath Party
always existed outside of Iraq -- it was a pan-Arab movement. In Iraq
and Syria, it took hold. In other Arab countries, it might not have
dominated but it was politically active. THE CRADLE notes:
The Iraq’s Islamic Dawa Party described the decision of the Jordanian
authorities to allow the Baath Party to resume political activities in
Jordan as a “hostile and provocative act,” Iraqi Shafaq News reported on 26 May.
The Shia Dawa Party’s political office said in a statement that, “The
Iraqis were surprised, shocked, and outraged by the news of the
Jordanian government’s permission for the (Saddam’s Ba’ath) party to
engage in political activity.”
On May 14, the Independent Electoral Commission in the Kingdom of
Jordan approved the political participation of 27 new political parties,
including the Arab Socialist Baath Party, whose Iraqi branch was led by
long-time Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.
Iraqi political parties have expressed indignation after the Baath party’s licence was renewed in neighbouring Jordan.
The Iraqi Islamic Al-Dawa party, which is the party of Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, expressed “shock and outrage” at Amman’s move.
Jordan’s Independent
Electoral Commission on 14 May approved the political participation of
27 political parties, including the Arab Socialist Baath Party, after
changes to its electoral law required all existing political groups to
be re-licensed to resume political activities in the country.
Dawa
is usually identified with former prime minister and forever thug Nouri
al-Maliki but, yes, the present prime minister Mohammed Shia al-Saudani
is also a leader of Dawa. He differs from Nouri in at least one regard
-- Mohammed never fled Iraq. Unlike the cowards before him, he didn't
flee the country and didn't have to wait for the US military to invade
in 2003 in order to return to Iraq.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan,
whose rule has grown increasingly authoritarian during his two decades
in power, won 52 per cent of the vote in Sunday’s runoff election,
securing another term.
At the end of his next term, he will have been at the top of the Turkish government for a quarter-century.
During
his rule, Mr Erdogan restricted press freedom, imprisoned journalists,
and used the LGBT+ community as a cudgel in the culture war to attract
socially conservative voters as his chaotic economic policies have sent
the Lira into a tailspin.
