Pope Blesses Same Sex Marriage. Says Climate Change is Caused by People Driving Cars, Trucks, Vans and Flying in Jet Airplanes. and Mexico decriminalizes abortion...

Overlooked News: During the Mad Panic About Republicans "Burning Down The House" It's Possible that These Stories were Missed...

Apparently, The Catholic Church is Embracing Sanity... WONDERFUL! Why NOT Bless Gay Marriage? It's Harmless and Putting a Lot of Effort into HATE seems to be Failing... 

Why NOT Try to Wake Up "The Jet Set" - The Last Holiday Weekend Had the Largest Number of People Flying on Jets in History... and NONE of them Realized that Their Behavior was Causing Air Pollution and Climate Change... Remember: It's all that Driving That Burns Gasoline... It's not the Oil Companies Fault... they are Just Giving the People What they want... Decades ago I ALSO Drove all over the Place Just for Fun... I didn't have a Clue... Imagine Driving from Washington DC to Key West To Niagara Falls... Just for fun! I Did That! Of Course, I Woke Up but... It's almost Impossible to Contact Members of The Jet Set and Get Their Attention...

In America It's Almost Impossible to Survive Without Driving to the Grocery Store... and The Vast Majority of People Drive to Work... SO... Climate Change is Coming and there Is VERY Little Hope for the Future... On the Rare Occasions that I Ride in a LYFT Car, the Streets of Sacramento are PACKED with Cars... 

I ALSO have Flown in a Jet Airplane. It's been Over 20 Years but... WE HAD FUN! My Father, New Wife and I Flew to Delaware for a Meet the Inlaws Visit...

and One subject that is almost Totally Ignored about the Causes of Climate Change... Eating Meat... Cows and Pigs Fart Methane, a Greenhouse Gas... and NO ONE is reducing the amount of Meat We Eat... I won't do that either... I love Hamburgers and Bacon and IF I Destroy the Environment for Young People... Huh... Pass the Ketchup... 

The really wonderful thing about Mexico decriminalizing Abortion is... Hopefully it will cause FEWER MEXICANS... They Have been Breeding Like Crazy and Cannot feed their children... That is the Main reason they want to Immigrate to the USA... because we Have been Behaving Sane about Birth Control... and the Quality of Life is Much Better Here...

Pope Francis signals openness to blessings for same-sex couples... 


Pope Francis lambasts climate change skeptics and ‘irresponsible’ Western lifestyles...

Mexico decriminalizes abortion, extending Latin American trend of widening access...

Climate Change Statement: 
“Despite all attempts to deny, conceal, gloss over or relativize the issue, the signs of climate change are here and increasingly evident. No one can ignore the fact that in recent years we have witnessed extreme weather phenomena, frequent periods of unusual heat, drought and other cries of protest,” he wrote.
Climate change will likely only get worse and ignoring it will heighten “the probability of extreme phenomena that are increasingly frequent and intense,” he wrote.

The pope paid particular attention to the disproportionate responsibility of rich countries for climate change.

“If we consider that emissions per individual in the United States are about two times greater than those of individuals living in China, and about seven times greater than the average of the poorest countries, we can state that a broad change in the irresponsible lifestyle connected with the Western model would have a significant long-term impact,” he wrote.

and here's an Interesting Article from OCCUPY dot Com about Train Safety and Corporate Greed...
"In addition to demanding better pay and paid sick leave, railroad workers called on the industry to move away from Precision Scheduled Railroading (PSR). PSR is essentially an industry euphemism for running longer trains with fewer workers and fewer safety inspections in order to maximize profits."

The New "Company Towns" - A Return to Slavery.
On its surface, tech billionaire Elon Musk’s plan to build a town in Texas for workers employed at his companies sounds relatively harmless. According to Architectural Digest (citing the Wall Street Journal), Musk has as many as 6,000 acres near the town of Bastrop, Texas in which SpaceX and Boring Company employees could live and work. The town would be called “Snailbrook,” in reference to the Boring Company’s mascot:
Incorporating his own town would allow Musk to make some of his own regulations and dodge the slowdown effects of bureaucracy… Another benefit of the project would be providing employees with lower-than-market-rate housing. Snailbrook, although not yet an incorporated township, reportedly already has some modular homes, plus a public pool, gym, and outdoor sports area. An advertisement for Boring Co. employees last year touted two- to three-bedroom homes for rent starting at $800 a month, while the median rent in the area is about $2,200 a month, according to the Journal’s report.
It’s important to note that what Musk is planning is simply a company town. And while the tech industry of today is different than the railroad industry of the onset of the industrial revolution, billionaires like Elon Musk and Amazon’s Jeff Bezos are no different than the robber barons of the early 20th century, like the Vanderbilt family and the Rockefellers. And luckily, the solutions to stop today’s robber barons from halting the century of progress workers have made are the same as those of yesteryear.

https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/16/politics/biden-oil-ceos/index.html

Headline: Biden administration invites oil CEOs to meeting next week on gas prices... (6/16/2022)

The Energy Department sent an invitation to oil industry executives Wednesday night to meet next week to discuss high gas prices, an official familiar with the matter tells CNN.

The official said the invitation went out to the same seven oil companies to which President Joe Biden wrote a letter on Tuesday: Marathon Petroleum, Valero Energy, ExxonMobil, Phillips 66, Chevron, BP and Shell. 



Headline: House approves bill to combat gasoline ‘price gouging’  - May 19th, 2022

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/economy/house-approves-bill-to-combat-gasoline-price-gouging

A closely divided House approved legislation Thursday to crack down on alleged price gouging by oil companies and other energy producers as prices at the pump continue to soar.

A bill backed by House Democrats would give President Joe Biden authority to declare an energy emergency that would make it unlawful to increase gasoline and home energy fuel prices in an “excessive” or exploitative manner. The bill directs the Federal Trade Commission to punish companies that engage in price gouging.

“At a time when people across the country are feeling the pinch at the gas pump, Congress needs to be doing all it can to bring down costs for American families,″ said Rep. Kim Schrier, D-Wash., who co-sponsored the bill.

She called it “infuriating” that spikes in gas prices were “happening at the same time that gas and oil companies are making record profits and taking advantage of international crises to make a profit. This must stop.″

The measure was approved, 217-207. Republicans unanimously opposed the bill, along with four Democrats.

GOP Plan: Destroy America and Cause Global Economic Collapse. Then Blame Biden for Trump's Spending, Tax Cut for the Rich Law... If the USA Defaults on Our Debt, Social Security Checks will Stop. Soldiers Pay Will Stop. The Stock Market Will Crash and Starvation of Billions of People Will Follow... FUN!

The US debt ceiling: What it is and what happens if Congress doesn't raise it...

Actions by Senate Republicans could lead to the US defaulting on its debts. The effect "would be catastrophic," according to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. https://www.cnet.com/personal-finance/us-debt-ceiling-what-it-is-and-what-happens-if-congress-doesnt-raise-it/

The US government has never defaulted on its debts -- but actions by Senate Republicans are threatening to shatter the nation's financial track record. At the center of the congressional fight is a somewhat obscure bureaucratic mechanism: the debt limit, which is the amount of money the government is legally allowed to borrow. Failing to raise (or suspend) it could lead to dire financial consequences that could impact every part of the US economy.

The Democratic-led House of Representatives narrowly passed a bill along party lines last week to fund the US government through the beginning of December and suspend the debt ceiling until the end of 2022. But Senate Republicans blocked the measure on Monday -- not a single Republican voted in favor -- setting the stage for a clash. The US government could run out of money as soon as Oct. 15, according to an analysis published by the Bipartisan Policy Center.

The stakes are high. If the ceiling isn't raised or suspended, it will almost certainly impact the US economy at a macro level, with experts forecasting interest rates spikes and stock price plunges. But the effects will surely be felt on an individual basis, too, as a government spending freeze would reduce or eliminate funding for vital programs, including food assistance for low-income Americans, Medicare and Social Security, and payouts to retired veterans.

Moscow Mitch is a QuackAnon FREAK




Top Republicans in the Senate are poised to block a key spending package advanced by Democrats in a move that could precipitate the dual fiscal crises of a government shutdown and an unprecedented US default on its colossal debt obligations.

The House has approved a combined stopgap funding measure that would keep the federal government open until early December and suspend the debt limit until after the 2022 midterm elections, sending the legislation to the Senate.

But the Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell swiftly announced that Republicans would sink the measure with a filibuster and prevent it from receiving the 60 votes needed to pass – causing a government shutdown on 1 October and a default weeks later.

The end never actually comes but we love to obsess about it anyway.

https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2021/09/22/how-the-debt-ceiling-turned-into-a-doomsday-cult-513644

The United States is careening toward an urgent financial crisis starting in less than two weeks, as a political standoff on Capitol Hill threatens to shutter the government during a pandemic, delay hurricane aid to millions of Americans and thrust Washington to the precipice of defaulting on its debt. As the White House has warned Republicans, a federal default — something that has never happened — could push the economy into recession or worse. The GOP’s financial “blob”—former Republican Treasury secretaries—have been warning McConnell and other party leaders that the economy might topple off a cliff if the ceiling goes unrepaired.

Trump's Border Wall is DOOMED TO FAIL. It's 260 Years Too Late. Mexicans "Invaded" California in 1760... They Founded the Town of Saint Douglas (San Diego)... Then they Founded the City of the Angels (Los Angeles)... San Francisco, San Jose, San Juan Boutista, Santa Clara, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz,The Colorful State (Colorado), The Flowery State (Florida) and the Snowy State (Nevada)...

Trump's Border Wall is also DOOMED because people FLY over it in Airplanes, Sail Around it in Boats and Drive Thru at Checkpoints using Fake ID... What's to prevent a person from Mailing a California Driver License to Tijuana? Then a Person that LOOKS SIMILAR presents it at the Crossing at San Ysidro... A Walls won't prevent Identity Fraud... Remember this: The Great Wall of China FAILED to Keep the Chinese Out... There are Chinese on BOTH SIDES of that wall. 

How do you build a wall on a RIVER? The Great River (Rio Grande) divides the State of TEJAS (Texas) from Mexico... 

The OTHER MAIN FLAW with Trump's Border Wall is that Latino People are Not That Scary. I was born in the City of Saint Joseph (San Jose) and about half the people are Hispanic... For example: My Hero in Junior High School was an Elegant Man Named Isidro M... He was the Basketball Coach... On my Facebook Group of Alumni from The Cats High School (Los Gatos) everyone agreed that he was a LOVED and RESPECTED Teacher... 

Why would you want to build a wall between the USA and Mexico when Mexicans are nice people? Perhaps Trump was Mugged by Puerto Ricans when he was a Child in Queens? Maybe THAT's why he has so much hatred... I remember the Musical "West Side Story" was about rival Street Gangs... One made up of Polish Kids and the Other was Puerto Rican... A famous song was "Maria" and then they Named a Hurricane "Maria" that wiped out the Island Of Puerto Rico... Trump's FEMA Failed Badly to repair Puerto Rico...  

One of the Secrets to the Success of Silicon Valley was that corporate leaders hired smart people from all over the world move to San Jose to work in Computers... My Next Door neighbor was from Nicaragua... Who knew that there were Computer Scientists in Nicaragua? IBM did... We also knew a Nazi who came to NASA after WW2...  When I went to work at System Industries in Santa Clara most of the employees were Asian or Hispanic... I had a LOT of Respect for my direct supervisor who was a Harley Davidson Riding Martial Artist... I certainly did what he told me to do... I was afraid of him because he could beat me up... but he never had to because I simply Honored His Wisdom... 

Trump's Failed Wall MEME


1984 is Now Here in the USA. The NDAA is Clearly Unconstitutional... Infinite Detention Without Trial by Jury is in the 6th Amendment BUT... The SCOTUS Ruling was That The Government HAS THE RIGHT to Incarcerate American Citizens Indefinitely for Vague Charges... or NO CHARGES AT ALL...


NDAA is No Longer the subject of a Lawsuit. 

Trial by Jury is part of the 6th Amendment to the Constitution. 
Obama clearly signed a law that is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
The most controversial provisions to receive wide attention were contained in subsections 1021–1022 of Title X, Subtitle D, entitled "Counter-Terrorism", authorizing the indefinite military detention of persons the government suspects of involvement in terrorism, including U.S. citizens arrested on American soil. 

The legislation permitted the U.S. government to indefinitely detain people "who are part of or substantially support Al Qaeda, the Taliban or associated forces engaged in hostilities against the United States".[7] The plaintiffs contended that Section 1021(b)(2) of the law allows for detention of citizens and permanent residents taken into custody in the U.S. on "suspicion of providing substantial support" to groups engaged in hostilities against the U.S. such as al-Qaeda and the Taliban[6] respectively that the NDAA arms the U.S. military with the ability to imprison indefinitely journalists, activists and human-rights workers based on vague allegations.[8]

A federal court in New York issued a permanent injunction blocking the indefinite detention powers of the NDAA but the injunction was stayed by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals pending appeal by the Obama Administration. On July 17, 2013, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the district court's permanent injunction blocking the indefinite detention powers of the NDAA because the plaintiffs lacked legal standing to challenge the indefinite detention powers of the NDAA. The Supreme Court declined to hear the case on April 28, 2014, leaving the Second Circuit decision intact.[9] 


and NOW for something completely different..
and more FUN.


League for Spiritual Discovery:

What IS the League for Spiritual Discovery ?
The League was a BRAND NEW RELIGION that had as a HOLY SACRAMENT the chemical LSD. Founded by Dr. Timothy Leary to challenge the laws making LSD illegal. The plan was that there was pre-existing cases legalizing Peyote by the Native American Church, so why not LSD? Sadly, this plan didn't work... However it did inspire Leary to recommend that other individuals start their OWN religion...

Why SHOULD you found your own religion? Write your OWN Bible? Well, WHY NOT? It would be more LIKELY to work for you than a religion written by someone else thousands of years ago...

One of the first things you have to decide is: should you have followers? Is your place in the cosmos to BE Jesus, Buddha or KRSNA? Or... do you want your own religion to be a private affair? "Think for Yourself and Question Authority" - Timothy Leary Visit the "Official" website:

Link to the Brotherhood of Eternal Love
The Brotherhood was a Laguna Beach criminal organization
founded by surfers that smuggled Hashish into the USA from Mexico inside of hollowed out surfboards. A person that was talented enough to build their own surfboard would have an easy time creating one that had a space for contraband. Once the resin coating of the board has dried it is impossible to tell what is inside... Then they just put the boards on to the roof rack and drove across the border at Tijuana... A clever technique!
They also distributed a brand of LSD-25 called Orange Sunshine. One of the most popular brands created in the USA...
Famous for High Quality and LARGE Dose... The Brotherhood was hired by the Weather Underground to orchestrate Timothy Leary's Jailbreak... He was successful and moved to a foreign country called Algeria to live briefly with Eldridge Cleaver. What ever happened to The Documentary Movie called ORANGE SUNSHINE?

Aldous Huxley wrote a book called ISLAND where he describes a psychedelic utopia... The Leary Group IFIF attempted to create this paradise in Mexico off the coast of Baja California... of course, it didn't work due to many different factors... but a second attempt was wildly successful... It's called Humboldt Nation and is situated on the North Coast of California.
You might be motivated to shout: EUREKA! I HAVE FOUND IT! If you look at the Official Seal of the great state of California, you will see a seated lady overlooking a bay with boats and the word Eureka... NOT KIDDING...
It refers to the Gold Rush of 1849 when miners were supposedly quoting ancient Greek Mathemticians... A more likely phrase would have been YAHOO! But that would lead to copyright infringement... Yippie! was already taken by Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin's group Youth International Party.
