What a great election cycle this year. As free press is the oxygen of democracy; real issues are the food!

  Almost everyone has weighed in on the issues of the elections this year. Even the foreign press is in on the action. From Michael Moore on the left progressive side to past presidents on the the so called right or conservative side of the issues. From the so called war on drugs to the so called  war on terror the corporate media lacks real true perspective of the important issues, or are just paid to not cover the important stuff. Some times it looks more like a war on the free and open press.

  It has come to the point that we really do have the best democracy money can buy. Here is a presentation from the great investigative journalist, Greg Palast on Pirate TV.
Lying Donald Trump is right about election fraud, but not the way that he says it is happening. The full copy of the movie by Greg Palast the best democracy money can buy is out now for three dollars.

  Even those like Wikileaks have brought out the information from the speeches that Hillary gave to the Wall Street Bankers. Lying Donald has still not come out with his Federal Taxes; which must make me ask what is he really hiding?
The FBI has finally cleared The Hillary after eight plus investigations by every one from congress and the senate to DOJ. This does not negate the appearance of what looks like a pay to play issue with the Clinton Foundation. Still I must comment that the Clinton Foundation has done much good around the whole world on the issue of Disease. Which brings up the next issue.
  Big money in American Politics. The Citizens United decision from the US Supreme court. Get big money out of the media also, and end Media Consolidation.
There was a lack of real issues discussed once the democratic primary was over, and Bernie was out of the race.   Hillary did come out against trickle down economics.  Trumped up Economics. What George Bush the First called Voodoo economics.

The importance of down ballot races will be one of the most important reasons to vote Tuesday if you have not voted yet. The Senate for supreme court justices. The congress for budget issues and the general function of our government. Republicans in Congress have obstructed  the legitimate function of government and the economy just because a black man was president. The legitimate function of government is not to privatize everything in the country.
The thought of Lying Donald as President has destabilized the Wall St and international markets. Most Republicans in DC including Donald will still not admit that Climate destabilization is real. No talk about the Issues of fossil fuels or pipelines like DAPL.
Real reports from the like of real reporters like Chris Hedges are almost never  covered by big media.

It is now time for all good people to stand together and stop the destruction of our cultures and environment.

I had the great honor of meeting Russel Means at the first rally to stop the WIPP project. The so called Waist Isolation Pilot Plant . At that time in 1979 the WIPP project was just a well drill Bore hole that went two and one half miles into the potash beds in southeast New Mexico. Now the Atomic waste in the WIPP is contaminating the site and at danger of ruining one of the best deposits of agricultural potash in the southwest, and eventually the water tables in that area, including the Ogallala aquifer.

Now the Oglala Sioux people and many other native people, as well as water and environmental activists are fighting to stop yet another pipeline and potential environmental disaster at the Standing Rock Reservation 

Standing Rock Dakota Access Pipeline Opposition

, that when and if it leaks will contaminate streams and rivers that lead to the Missouri River .

Occupy Together.

At that time Russel Means was talking about Leonard Peltier being in prison for the gun fight at the Pine Ridge reservation in June of 1975.

It is now time for all good people to stand together and stop the destruction of our cultures and environment.

The theft of an election, The Corporate Media is Crooked and Vile, and DNC is un-democratic!

 After a numerous Instances of Voting problems in many states around the country this primary season, it has become quite clear that this primary election was stolen at many stages. For those who might say these are just "conspiracy theories"; It ceases to be a theory when there is enough evidence to indicate that it is actually so.  This is a small collection of items from this primary cycle 2016. There are many, many more.
  
From John Robinson
June 7, 2016. California. The Justice Gazette reporters and others are conducting an investigation into voting irregularities and the theft of Bernie Sanders's apparent California landslide victory by those supporting Hillary Clinton. According to popular actress Frances Fisher, a lawsuit is being prepared to require the counting of all the provisional ballots. If this lawsuit is successful, the actual vote count is expected to become known and Sanders will likely have a landslide victory in California.

The theft of California hasn't deterred Sanders from his course. He has promised to fight on while noting it is a steep uphill climb. Given all the states where vote fraud in favor of Hillary Clinton has been allowed to swing primaries from Sanders to Clinton, it is in fact a steep uphill climb to restore democracy and force the now undemocratic Democratic Party to nominate the man the vast majority of American voters have voted for or tried to vote for.

It has been learned from poll workers that 50% to 90% of voters who were supposed to have been eligible to vote in the Democratic primary were told they would have to vote provisional ballots. There were two irregularities leading to the forced use of provisional ballots instead of regular ballots. The first was that previously registered voters' names had been removed from the rolls. The second was that someone (in most cases, not the voter) had marked them as vote by mail voters but they had received no ballot in the mail. Oddly, virtually all of those not allowed to vote and forced to vote provisional ballots were Bernie Sanders supporters.

The next oddity is even more curious. Poll workers in Los Angeles and Orange County report that Bernie won the electronic votes in their precincts by well over a 2 to 1 margin, the opposite of the result of the vote count. The contrast between this and the outcome is indicative of vote-flipping. Also the outcome.. outcome does not match what anyone who has conducted polling in this state knows: Below the election night video is a video about black box voting (Hacking Democracy) , The Democratic Party has essentially endorsed this video, showing it at various conventions and another video of a computer programmer confessing to creating a vote-flipping program.

Apparently, there now exists proof millions of votes were dropped from Bernie Sanders candidacy which evidence is apparently being investigated by the FBI, who it is reported, say Bernie Sanders already has enough true votes to have won, and that is NOT Hillary's camp who are responsible for the fraud.
Also there is a Lawsuit to be filed against most media outlets for hiding exit polls to obfuscate the fix! A RICO investigation is being preformed by FBI. This news just broke 2 hours ago and of course the main stream media are not reporting it.
Going to court June 28th!

  I knew all along that corruption was going on with California just like the other states. If you watch that documentary "Hacking Democracy", you will understand how easy it is to flip the votes.
Nobody is watching, nobody cares, and you should care. No matter what your party, no matter who your choice of candidates, you should care whether the elections are fair and square or if they are rigged. No matter what I just want honesty and integrity in our voting system

PETITION to the UN: "Repeated irregularities have occurred in the Democratic Primary, including purging of Senator Sanders supporters from the registry of democratic voters in many states including Arizona, California, New York and Pennsylvania, and including exit polls that show Sanders with a significantly higher percentage of votes than the results in a number of states, including Massachusetts, North Carolina, Illinois, Ohio, Missouri, Florida [& now New York]. Without full confidence that any investigation operated by an internal body of the US will be above corruption, we seek the submission of a request to the UN for an investigation into possible election suppression and election fraud in the continuing Democratic Primary."

Arizona Lawsuit on Primary, Sander's

Eric Gwawl
So many thousands of voters complaining in so many states and they can only say they saw no illegal action. Nevada was a Un-Democratic as possible. Voting for a decision a half hour before the delegates could enter?
Thousands complaining about incidents at the polls, ballots and now representation. Is there a Fascist Government already in place?
New York will hopefully bring in some fresh air as millions are sick and tired of this voter fraud.
Many supporters in California have helped in the effort of having a accurate Primary very much different than so many others.

 From Jeff Weaver
There is NO other option than to re-do the Arizona vote. You have waited four years for this primary election, To have it denied to them because of ILLEGAL voter database tampering and incompetence on the part of those responsible to insure efficient, convenient, and reliable polling stations is NOT anywhere close to a valid excuse to insult voters further with a "well, we're sorry, but too bad for those who's votes weren't counted". Sue the State for a re-election. Demand a DOJ investigation. Get the FBI cyber crime unit as well. And the UN investigation. This MUST stop here. Find the source of this mess and hold them all criminally liable. Arizona, DO NOT TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER.. Too many brave fellow citizen's have given their lives for the right to vote. We cannot insult their memory by allowing this theft to go unresolved and uncorrected.

 Arizona Secretary of State confirms Election Fraud!
anonymous investigations arizonas-voter-registration-database-hacked/ 
The numbers in Pima County and Maricopa are particularly glaring. Reports of five-inch thick piles of provisional ballots and up to 2/3 of ballots in a particular voting location in Pima are quite suspicious. Numbers Anonymous is using internally to monitor election results across the country suggest that Sanders should have won student rich, and reliably progressive Pima county comfortably. The lack of polling stations alone in Maricopa County cannot explain how Phoenix, with a Democratic Mayor, could see Republicans show up at the polls on election day to the tune of around 80,000 voters, while Democrats cast a paltry 33,000 votes in Maricopa County on election day. 

Conclusion

At this point, Anonymous quite obviously does not have the required proof to point a finger at any particular person or campaign for the findings in our database and of our vulnerability scan. Non-conspiratorial alternative explanations may emerge for why  perhaps tens of thousands of voters showed up to the polls expecting to be able to vote with the party they had registered with previously and were either denied or forced to vote provisionally. What is unmistakable, at this point, is that something went very badly wrong well beyond the lack of polling stations. The evidence does point to the possibility that something more malicious is happening.

Did the Democratic Party commit Election Fraud in Puerto Rico?   
Days before Hillary Clinton won the primary in Puerto Rico, the party reduced polling locations from 1,510 to 432. 
Just Google vote election fraud!

There is a winter storm on the Horizon, because it's #Bernado season in Iowa! #FeelTheBern #IowaCaucus

#WeAreBernie because it's #Bernado season! #FeelTheBern

 Noam Chomsky  Renowned academic weighs in on US presidential candidates and their chances, saying elections are "mainly bought", and says Bernie has best policies.                    
Even though Senator Warren has not yet endorsed anyone for this presidential election she stands with Bernie by her words and actions.  Elizabeth Warren on corporate Rigged  Justice.

 So on the issue of open and honest discussion in the election process  Tulsi-Gabbard
 was banned  Rep. Tulsi Gabbard Banned From Democratic Debate.   And then there is Ohio state Senator Nina Turner Who says the future is to important to go from "yes we can" to "no we can't."

On the issue of reparation recently brought up by Ta-Nehisi Coats I must ask "what about reparations to our planet earth," or our Native brothers and sisters who were here before anyone from across the other side of the pond. Then there are other Indigenous Peoples  , all over the planet.  We (As only part native myself.) realize that we must always looked at building alliances, coalitions, or being part of coalitions. We must all stand together. We have a chance to fix this great mess of a Democracy we have today, and get big money, power and greed out of our Democracy.

  Bernie  started with about 3% name recognition last Spring. OOOOHH  #Feelthebern. Bernie just passed the former first lady and Secretary of State in one last poll before tonight's #Iowa caucus.
One very nice Lady was asking me "Why are Republicans so mean."  Don't focus on what we do not want. Focus on what we do hope to have. What we are doing with Bernie is to focus on what we see and have that is good, and what we desire to see become real. Something to have for our children! For Republicans it is focus on fear, or "us against them", and not team work, or what we desire like the Bernie team.
Much is actually hard wiring from a young age. Many just need to be told what to do. About 20-25% of population are "Wired that way" from youth and focus on fear or negative issues. We almost all know those ones that say "Well, There ought to be a law." Vote for your hopes not your fears. We got 'em on the run. #wearebernie. It will take all the help we can get. And thanks to everyone now in advance for all your help.

 Why do people around the world support Bernie?  Because of real issues like Usury Banking.
 170 Economists Endorse Bernie Sanders’ Plan To Reform Wall St. And Rein In Greed.
I found a very old book on Economics at the Thrift store last year. 100 years ago the job of a banker was not even considered an honest or productive part of the labor force. Put an end to #tobigtofail banks.

Berniesanders says people-before-polluters !!!  There is no one main stream candidate like Bernie on the ISSUES. This is my pet issue, environment. I will not even start to rant about this. This has been my main issue ever since the time I  did my first issue signature campaign to save the whales in the Early 1970s.  The Republicans do not even admit that Climate change is real, much less than that it is actually happening; Like a giant ostrich with its head in the sand.  

 Bernie stands up against giving Billions of dollars to the fossil fuel corporations as subsidies while they destroy fresh water and the ocean.   On the issue of climate Naomi Klein  who is a journalist, in her new book, and also a new movie this changes everything.  Naomi addresses the issue that it really is "Capitalism Vs the Environment."  Also very clear is that it is all of us against the giant corporations. This little ball of wax we live on was the garden of Eden and it could be again, however we must stop destroying our own environment. 

On GMOs Bernie makes it very clear, as he does on the issue of Environment. On the other hand our former Secretary of State $hillary not so much.

So to those in the business of GMOs who are already trying to debunk the "Spread of GM mosquito conspiracy theory hurts fight against Zika" Virus,  we respond that it ceases to be a theory once there is enough information to indicate that it is so. You betray yourself by your own action. Like the Kid caught with a hand in the candy jar. "WHO ME, I was just lookin." This is one gun that you can not un-shoot.  We must stop this!! Even if this is just a "Conspiracy Theory" about the GMO mosquito, the continued use of drugs, pesticides and GMOs only aggravates and creates more unforeseen disease and disease resistance.   The World health organization just declared the Zika virus a health emergency.  This along with spreading of multi-drug-resistant bacteria and superbugs from disastrously polluted water. #Feelthebern  Long live Bernie. This is the fight of our lifetimes for all of us!!!

New year floods in Missouri, Illinois, and Congress still has no clue. Happy new year, Love and light and insight to all.

Elected and appointed officials are not likely to come up with a coherent or common sense long range plan to deal with the worsening issues of water on this continent. Some for lack of a real life perspective of the problem. Some influenced by large amounts of money from those that stand to profit from water, and the continuation of the political insanity in America.
 Any way we look at it, it is a giant problem. In 2015 terrible drought from Arkansas to the west coast, Massive floods from Texas to the east coast. 

Giant dams and water systems are not the answer, but a vast continent wide system of local and regional, small and medium water control systems to store, control, move, clean, and use this water, as well as produce electricity to move this water.

Using Hydrodynamic systems, Siphon systems, ram pumps, archimedes pumps,
Also we must refill our water tables. Agricultural systems like permaculture will help slow flooding, along with infiltration ponds and water storage and control systems to move water to the driest places at the time of great rains and floods. 

Micro-hydro Electric systems for pumping water and electricity.
Ram pumps, for moving water up hill. Refilling the water table of the whole continent is of paramount importance.

First to deal with the water problem we must end the destruction of our water, Fracking, tar sand extraction and so on. Agriculture in the style of war, glyphosate herbicide  also called roundup has many problems,  including binding minerals in the body making them unavailable in the process of turning good fats into hormones.   2,4-D which is half of the agent orange defoliant used in the Vietnam war and known to cause cancer.   Atrazine which is know to cause frogs to spontaneously change sex and to cause breast, uterine and testicular cancer, etc. Many are Biocides and, or  cause endocrine disruption, that are destroying our ocean and the health of our people and biosphere generally.  Industrial pollution and plastic going into the oceans. 

We must have
Many vast constructed wetlands on rivers and streams to remove nitrogen, phosphorus and other chemicals and things like plastic, etc, before this water gets to the oceans.

We must come up with a plan to capture as much of the Methane coming out of the permafrost and arctic ocean areas.

Reforestation of the continent from the west to the east. Prevailing wind is mostly from the west in North America in summer.  Trees are a great way to get water in the air and are an excellent way to suck carbon out of the atmosphere.

Regenerative and restorative agriculture systems. Not just sustainable agriculture.

For a great look at water issues world wide see the WaterWired blog.

Huge volcano of methane spews out of California. Why should we care about this invisible gas?

This is enough evidence for me that we have a problem. To be frank I get a bit anxious when I review this kind of thing. Either way it was created, by melting of a pingo hole in the arctic, or from methane on the continental shelf, it is still and an indicator that we must do something about the methane.  This hole in the tundra, or a plume in the ocean, must be a wake up call. We must come up with some ways to collect this methane and use it. How about something like a giant upside down umbrella or several, that are connected to a hose going to a tanker truck or a tanker ship on the ocean. This can be used for growing algae for fuel, or in agriculture or greenhouses or for heating our greenhouses or buildings, or just used in traditional gas fired power plants. Any of this will be better than letting it out in the biosphere. We have real serious mess to clean up but one of the most important thing is to stop stop the stupid stuff like this. I hope and pray as a culture we can do better soon.

In  the L.A.  area a giant leak from a gas storage facility has been leaking for months. Meanwhile, in California, Governor Jerry Brown  declared a state of emergency  Wednesday, January 6th in the Los Angeles neighborhood where an uncontrollable methane gas leak has spewed more than 150 million pounds of methane into our Biosphere.
It is good to talk about problems, and also I think at this time it would be good for a shift in our thinking towards coming up with and implementing solutions.

How about a national methane company owned by state and local governments. The like of Exxon, BP (British Petroleum) Have shown themselves to be untrustworthy of being responsible corporate citizens if you believe that corporations are really persons. These mega corporations should be prosecuted as persons, and all of there upper level executives for there misdeeds. Any excess money from these ventures can go to a permanent sustainable and green infrastructure. This must be a start to decentralization. Local people will know what is happening and what must be done in their area where they live sooner than a federal agency in DC.

I know a lot of Smart people visit this blog of  Thom's. Maybe we cane find some other people who can help out, or come up with some good Ideas .
