MLK and the FBI

The mafia branches of the US government target people who threaten their power. The FBI began its persecution of Dr. King back in the fifties when he was involved with the Montgomery bus boycott. Hoover wanted to silence him calling MLK "the most notorious liar in the country."

Hoover, who headed the FBI for decades, obsessively despised King on a deeply personal level. He kept files on the civil rights leader in which he'd scribble hateful comments on memos he received about King, apparently for no purpose other than his own gratification and catharsis. On a memo about King receiving the St. Francis peace medal from the Catholic Church, he wrote "This is disgusting." On the news of King's meeting with the pope, he scribbled, "I am amazed that the Pope gave an audience to such a degenerate."

Not only did the FBI encourage him to commit suicide, but were also probably behind his assassination. Let's investigate the sordid story this week. (51 min)

I should likely make this an OT comment, but I am pretty spun up at the moment, want to say what I want to say while the music is in my head, the hugs are still warm, the kisses are still moist.
I met a man at a Christmas party 20 years ago, and we became best friends.

No offense to cattle but creepy uncle joe just contracted hoof in mouth about social security.

While you were probably distracted by MSM nonsense, a new study came out showing that the consensus believes that MFA would cost less than the current system.

This “body language expert” also says Bernie gave Warren the “cold shoulder, he doesn’t turn to her” when he actually stuck his hand out to shake her hand. pic.twitter.com/HrMHl6pcTf

2016: Era Of Misogynistic Rage

I won't be answering calls from unknown numbers today, after third call from Bernie supporters telling me they'd hunt me down in the streets

It's coming down out there. Nae doubt about it, there'll be shovelling hell tomorrow.

So something from a warmer time:

I mentioned yesterday that the post-debate Hot Mic moment was the whole point. Everything led up to that.
Bernie was unfairly attacked for two solid hours.
Then Liz approached him with that BS when he was unprepared and might have thought no one could hear.

...I'd like to ask if this is what you'd seen (minus his spin)? These bits are from Patrick Martin's Jan. 16, 2020 'Mideast war threat overshadows Democratic debate' (all bolds are mine.)

"All six candidates on the stage—including the nominal “socialist” Bernie Sanders, who has been appealing to antiwar sentiment at his campaign rallies—criticized Trump’s actions from the standpoint of advocating a more carefully considered strategy to defend and advance the interests of American imperialism in the Middle East and throughout the world.

Thursday was one of those surprise days, each moment getting more dramatic.

So the Warren campaign, CNN, WashPost (which has been worse than normal), and the DNC all ganged up to take down Bernie this week.
How did that go?

Circle the wagons, boys! Bernie Sanders and his rabble have sharpened their pitchforks and set fire to their torches! It's time to remind them who they are.
