Got guts? Tired of being lied to? Like an alternative source of information truly independent and free of government propaganda? Want this publication to continue? Send a donation to P.O. Box 151, Buchanan Dam, Tx. 78609.

No matter what, no matter where, this publication will remain up and running. For it to remain centered here, however, financial and/or material support must be provided. Status quo, unsustainable. Time to step up. Now.

Brother dearest. ... Been awhile, hasn't it, Bro? A little antsy? Wondering when the next shoe is about to fall, that is, when you'll be fully exposed for the thieving son of a bitch you truly are? Patience. All in good time, good buddy. When I'm damned good and ready. Timing just right. After all, a son of a bitch who's stolen his father's estate needs to be fully exposed publicly for whom and what he is, don't you think? Indeed, a public service for your neighbors, professional associates, family, and friends, etc..

Conveniently, forget? Others need to protect themselves against a fraud who masquerades as both a teacher and a counselor, no? -- How the hell did you ever pass an MMPI some forty years ago to get hired? You're not stable. Have not been. ... Must have really been pissed off at the old man to rip off an estate, no? How much did you steal while he was alive and supposedly under your care?

How much did you bribe law enforcement to ignore a complaint I filed with them years before the old man died? How much did you bribe the prosecutor to ignore a complaint filed with her several years ago? How much? Use the old man's money to bribe the bitch? Her cohorts? Your law enforcement shysters? While there may indeed be no justice from a corrupt system, fortunately, I do have a way to publicly expose you for the goddamned thieving son of a bitch you truly are.

... Unlike our grandmother who scrubbed floors on her hands and knees during the Depression for peanuts, only to have what little she had stolen by her son, our uncle, another goddamned thieving son of a bitch just like you. Remember how, surprise, surprise, there was no life insurance when our grandfather died? Despite the fact our grandmother gave her thieving bastard son premium money year after goddamned year? Only, as the thieving son of a bitch he truly was, to have pocketed it. Again, just like you.

Remember when he booted her out of the house she had bought him when he had had enough of her? -- Despite the fact he had lied and promised she could stay the rest of her life? She had to climb two flights of stairs on an ulcerated leg to get to a bathroom he had never built for her at ground level as falsely promised. Nothing ever happened to the thieving son of a bitch as far as justice was concerned. Worse, he was never exposed publicly for the thieving son of a bitch he truly was.

Will be different for you, Bro. While you've bought off authorities, you will be publicly exposed. In great detail. In good time. When I'm damned good and ready. When exposure will do the maximum figurative damage to your goddamned sordid reputation. -- Just the truth, brother dearest, however. Just the truth.

Irony of ironies? When the thieving son of a bitch died, and our mother was finally informed he had passed, she cried for her brother, -- the bastard thief who stole from her mother. Sad, isn't it? Too bad she's not still alive to see you publicly exposed for the goddamned thieving son of a bitch you, yourself, truly are. As was he. Not in a court of law you've bought off, however. Right here.

In good time. Again, when I'm damned good and ready. Employing the very same tactics used against Amanda Wright of Wells Fargo. -- On steroids, however, since all dirty family laundry will be aired. All of it. No threat. A promise. Emails sent to your neighbors, friends, professional associates, businesses you deal with. Although an enormous amount of work, all doable courtesy of the Internet. Despite being some 1,800 miles away. -- Small world, isn't it, Bro? Enjoy the stolen loot, you son of a bitch. Forget? It's all you have.

Brother dearest. Save all the check stubs from the old man's accounts? Fraudulently sign any of them yourself? Think this material couldn't be obtained from the banks either through discovery or a criminal investigation? Still own the house on Condict Rd.? Any other properties besides this one and the old man's you stole with the help of your shyster bastard? Be interesting to see how far your assets extend and where. Think all that information isn't accessible? That I won't determinedly obtain it?

That not only an extensive Internet search will be conducted that will likely take months to complete? But an extensive background check as well? Think the Catholic high school you attended shouldn't be informed of the thievery of one of its graduates? Think the clerics there would be appalled at their failure to teach you right from wrong? How about both universities? Think neighbors in the old man's neighborhood won't be informed of your deception? Think they don't have a right to know?

Ever follow the advice of Dr. Bert Wiser, psychological statistics professor at MSU? That is, get treatment for your achingly debilitating instability? Is that why you wound up looting the old man? Or, is it simply a convenient excuse you'll use to defend the indefensible? Think this will end any time soon? That is, public exposure of you as a thieving son of a bitch? We're just getting started, Bro. Just getting started.

Don't like it? Tough shit. Sue me you thieving son of a bitch. Would use discovery to learn and post on this website all there is to know about you, your activities, predilections, business 'deals,' as well as all your financial transactions, etc.. All of it. Would certainly avoid the expense of an extensive background check on you, thieving brother dearest.

Even if you were successful in court, there is nothing for you to take, this remains, as well, a homesteading state where minimal assets are protected anyway. This site is hosted in an overseas country that doesn't particularly like government intrusion, remains not prone to cooperate. Besides, can always upload to another webhost in still yet another country. The possibilities are endless, Bro. Just takes willingness, effort, unshakable determination.

Even if I lost it all would be more than worth it to expose you for the goddamned thieving son of a bitch you truly are. Even if you bribed a goddamned nazi 'judge' to remove posted material, would not cooperate and be more than willing to rot in jail. Would certainly keep reposting it all no matter the cost and/or personal consequences every time it was taken down. Forget, you thieving son of a bitch? I never ever give up.

Since all I seek is your exposure for the thief you truly are, would all be worth it. For the sake of principle. All the work, financial cost, as well as the time I am about to dedicate to this effort, you deceptive, unstable, sick, thieving son of a bitch. Unlike you, I live on principle and have absolutely nothing to lose. You do. Will certainly take great pleasure and satisfaction in doing all I can to publicly expose you for whom and what you are.

To say nothing of placing enormous pressure on prosecutors you and your equally corrupt shyster son of a bitch apparently bribed. Don't like it? Again, tough shit. Chew harder. The public needs to know to protect itself. From you and your shyster bastard. People who live and travel in your circles as well. Including his. As a thief, you and he can't be trusted by anyone. You'll determinedly f--k them.

More than willing to provide this truly public service. People certainly need to know whom and what you are. What you have sadly become. You certainly weren't brought up to be a thieving son of a bitch. What happened? Where did you lose yourself, Bro? -- Never mind. ... Truly doesn't matter. Only your exposure.

Hey, Bro? Remember me? How soon they conveniently forget. ... Half asleep? -- Out to lunch? ... In your own perverse little world? That of a criminal? Wake up. Conveniently, gutlessly forget? Insanely believe you're someway, somehow off the hook? Think again. We're not done. You remain a thief who will be exposed for whom and what your are. What you certainly have become. No question about that. Patience, you thieving son of a bitch. Exposure is coming. Promise.

Think I don't have time? Truly believe the ongoing Presidential fiasco ends no matter who wins? The murderous decay in law enforcement gets resolved any time soon? Criminal Wells Fargo employees from local Kingsland bank manager Amanda S. Wright right up to and including CEO John Stumpf get prosecuted in the near future despite egregious criminal activity? Wouldn't hold my breath, would you?

Think I don't have time to handle all this and your public exposure for the estate-stealing criminal son of a bitch you've truly become? How could you steal from the old bastard, you incredibly sad sack of shit? Certainly weren't brought up to be a thief. What happened to you? Where'd you lose yourself?

No question, 2017 will be a most remarkable, defining year for you, Bro. Public exposure for the thieving piece of shit you've sadly become. It's on the way. Promise. Hope you sue. Nothing for you to take. Tough, isn't it? Certainly, makes me judgment proof. Will certainly, as well, take advantage of discovery. Publish every detail I can get my hands on. No matter the consequences. Only consideration? Prime directive? Your exposure for whom and what you are.

Readers? This not-so-brotherly piece of shit stole from our father. Manipulated the old man to line his pockets. Just like our uncle on my mother's side of the family did to my grandmother. Runs in the family. Our family. ... Right, Bro? This game now gets played my way, -- not yours, you son of a bitch. That is, no more U.S. Mail tag.

Anything sent by mail will be refused, returned unopened. Want contact? Email. libertyinperil@riseup.net. Quick. Easy. Better yet? A digital record. Permanent. Easily accessible. Easily uploaded to this site when and if it becomes necessary. The shyster bastard you hired to steal the estate shouldn't expect escape, either, from public exposure as the thieving piece of shit he, like you, truly both are. Unscrupulous thieves.

Sincerely hope that piece of crap sues as well. Nothing to take. Discovery again would be published no matter the personal cost. Nothing quite like public exposure, is there? Especially, when it is nothing but the truth and there is absolutely nothing to lose exposing two pieces of criminal shit for whom and what they are. Two pieces of gutless human excrement who looted an old man. ... Right, Bro?

There is no better disinfectant than sunlight, readers. Glaring sunlight. Dazzling brilliance. Amazing how the roaches run for cover. Equally pointedly, how vermin on two legs manage to so easily prey on the elderly courtesy of the out of control fascist police-state we now live in. While there'll never be any justice vis a vis this theft, there will be exposure to the brilliant light of day for both criminal perpetrators. Count on it, you not-so-brotherly criminal son of a bitch.

Any time a cop does something heroic, and/or of exceptional benefit to the community, it always leads. Always. The Statesman reports:

"Austin police officer David Easley hugs Jarvis Moblin, 8, during the 14th annual Shop With a Cop shopping spree at Target at the Capital Plaza shopping center on Thursday. "I want to keep shopping so I can stay with you longer," Jarvis said. Fifty students from Padron and Allison elementary schools paired up with Austin police officers for a $150 shopping spree made possible by Amigos en Azul, Target stores, Cops for Charities, Capital Metro, Capital Metro Security Team, St. Chubby Golf Classic and Cici's Pizza."

From the photo, it was not possible to determine who was having more fun, Officer Easley or Jarvis. Hat's off to the officer, and all the sponsors who made this possible.

Wake up, Sheriff. Again, where is dashcam video of the killing of Jeffrey Gray Wise, 52, of Austin by DPS and the Llano County Sheriff's Office? Thirty-five weeks, now. A goddamned disgrace. Why are you still sitting on this information? What are you hiding, Sheriff? What is the identity of the officers who killed Wise? Too gutless to release this information to the public that pays your salary and that of your goons? Reportedly, there were three officers involved in the shooting.

Who are they, Sheriff? Their past history? An ongoing investigation remains a lame bullshit excuse. How can you and your goons be trusted when you refuse to disclose information? Thirty-five weeks. Especially, your egregious failure to disclose the identity of the officers who pulled the trigger. To cover your sorry ass, Sheriff? Those of your thugs? The people have a right to know what happened, how it went down. You don't understand that, Sheriff? Sadly, clearly, you answer to no one. Including taxpayers. Especially, taxpayers.

Until you and your goons come clean, doubt will remain this was indeed a good shoot. The longer you drag your feet, the greater the doubt. Think not? Wake up. Your credibility has tanked. Isn't getting any better as this bullshit continues unabated. Thirty-five weeks. Still no identification of the officers involved ... Can't get your stories straight? In line? Discrepancy between LCSO and DPS? Wake up, Sheriff. The public no longer buys the bullshit. No longer trusts you. On this and many, many other issues. You have no credibility. Absolutely, none.

Readers, this is but one of about four other highly questionable killings by law enforcement in Llano County in the last decade or so. There was one within the City of Llano, another in a field near Fuzzy's Corner, Buchanan Dam, yet another in Point Tella, Buchanan Dam, still another in Tow. If there are any others I may have neglected to mention, kindly email.

It's time the public be fully informed. -- Know what we're dealing with here and how 'law' 'enforcement' operates in this hell hole County. If these jackbooted bastards are not reined in, the life lost could be yours courtesy of a law enforcement system that is no longer accountable to anyone. ... Right, Sheriff? TL? "Sonny Boy?" Madam County Attorney?

The Sheriff seems to have no clue the people who pay him and his goons are entitled to know whom is killing whom and why. This shit always seems to be swept under the carpet. Ignored. The attitude of these jackbooted sons of bitches is trust us. They can't be. They've lied too many times. Refuse to be accountable to anyone. We live in a goddamned fascist police-state where law enforcement does as it pleases. Usually, with impunity. That has to change.

The Texas Rangers have become rubber stamp to atrocities committed by law enforcement. This also has to change. No one is holding law enforcement accountable any longer. No one. No one in state or federal government. This is precisely why Ferguson triggered such an uproar. There was no justice there. None here. None anywhere. Officers are abusive, corrupt, inept.

Falsely ticket and arrest the innocent to line County coffers. Court fees charged continue to be horrendous. -- Aren't taxpayers already looted to pay these costs? Aren't you boys not only double f--king those falsely accused, but taxpayers also hellaciously looted to pay the very same costs? Yet, the criminal bastards in power in Llano continue to pile on the fees. This is nothing more than goddamned bullshit. This money finds its way into the pockets of the corrupt and abusive bastards who falsely believe they run and own this hell hole.

Would you believe the last time the Sheriff's Office happened to be 'audited' during the Garrett regime, reportedly, auditors couldn't figure out what went where and why? Yet, surprise, surprise. Nothing was done. There has to be transparency. There is none. Why would these thieving bastards want any? ... Right, Sheriff? TL? How else could they so easily steal and loot with virtual impunity? Worse, this reinforces jackbooted power in this goddamned, godforsaken hell hole County.

The public has a right to know the histories of the Sheriff's goons. Clearly, the Sheriff doesn't think so. That is, where they came from. Why they left where they were. What is happening here is the Sheriff is using 'personnel matters' as a convenient excuse to deny the public access to the history of outrageously corrupt, abusive, inept officers who are no more than criminals themselves.

He's protecting his outrageously corrupt, abusive, inept jackbooted bastards. Worse, the standards imposed by sheriff's offices statewide with the exception of metropolitan counties are well below those of DPS and city police departments. Why? So the corruption, abuse, ineptness, and outright stealing can continue unabated? This has to change. ... Can't have that, can we? Sheriff? TL?

The public should understand Llano County authorities have it all sewn up. Did you know the Texas Attorney General does not have the authority to investigate and prosecute County authorities on his own? The District Attorney has to call for an investigation by the Texas Rangers. Then, the State can prosecute if it so chooses.

Consequently? Guess what? Nothing will happen. Nothing ever does. The goddamned corruption continues unabated until you, the public, pressure authorities. Precisely, why we all enjoy the 'best' government money can buy. Literally. Without question, the corrupt, abusive, inept sons of bitches are all bought and paid for. Firmly clamped to the taxpayer tit. Dependent on money looted from innocent citizens caught in their web. Phony fines and court costs cleverly designed to f--k the innocent and enrich the pieces of shit who falsely believe they run and own Llano County. Right, Sheriff? TL? "Sonny Boy?" Madam County Attorney?

Interestingly, the former Sheriff and District Attorney were reportedly forced to retire after an outrageous scandal involving a drunk driving police officer from out of town. Including special treatment of the drunken son of a bitch that no other citizen caught doing the same would have been afforded. An honest, honorable Llano County Deputy suffered the consequences. Forget? Great officers do not last in this hell hole County. ... Right, Sheriff? TL? "Sonny Boy?" Madam County Attorney?

With all ongoing abuse in this goddamned County, one thing remains for damned sure. We're just getting started, Sheriff. You will continue to be exposed for whom and what you and your corrupt, abusive, inept jackbooted bastards have become, truly are, not what you phonies purport to be, that is, how you continue to f--k over a public you've falsely sworn to protect and defend. -- Exposure, the only way short of an unwanted dreaded revolution to force desperately needed change in a goddamned fascist police-state. The Fourth Reich.

Have your jackbooted thugs been tested for steroids, Sheriff? If you've nothing to hide, Bill, release the results of all drug testing. 'Personnel matters?' Bullshit. Looted taxpayers have the right to know. They're footing the bill for all this goddamned corruption, abuse, ineptness. When will you and the boys end the shakedowns? Looting of the innocent to line County coffers? No honor at all?

Where are your swastika armbands, you fascist son of a bitch? You and your thugs remain out of uniform. Once again, Sheriff, and ad nauseum, did you and/or your goons pressure Schilling to exit the race? Did you steal the election? If so, an aggressively stupid, achingly gutless public gets what it truly deserves. One of the most corrupt, abusive, inept 'law' 'enforcement' agencies in our formerly great country.

Have any information, knowledge of, experience with a purportedly non-profit volunteer clean-up group called Looking Forward In Llano County affiliated with the Llano County Attorney's Office? Email this publication at libertyinperil@openmailbox.org to provide information and/or arrange a meeting to discuss this matter. If requested, your identity will be protected. The question is quite simple. Is this group what it claims to be and on the level?

Finally, some delayed justice for a murderous criminal jackbooted bastard in blue. CNN reports:

"The former Milwaukee cop who fatally shot Sylville Smith last summer fired a second, fatal shot after the young suspect had tossed his weapon, according to a criminal complaint released Thursday. Body-camera video from another officer showed the ex-cop, Dominique Heaggan-Brown, fired the second bullet into Smith's chest after the suspect hurled his weapon over a fence and had his hands near his head, according to the complaint."

What took them so long? Had it been a cop murdered, the perpetrator would have been immediately arrested, jailed, charged, and either denied bail or had it set at millions.

"Smith had been armed with a Glock .40 caliber model 22 semi-auto handgun with an extended magazine but Heaggan-Brown's body camera showed he threw the weapon into an adjacent yard as he was shot the first time, the complaint said."

"A review of both Heaggan-Brown's body camera and (the other officer's) camera confirm that Smith was unarmed at the time of the second shot," said the complaint filed by the Milwaukee District Attorney's office. Heaggan-Brown, who was fired after a sexual assault investigation in a separate case, was charged Thursday with first-degree reckless homicide. If convicted, he faces a maximum prison sentence of 60 years in the fatal shooting of the 23-year-old, whose death sparked days of unrest in the Wisconsin city."

Kill a cop? Even in self-defense? You get executed in most states, including here in Nazi Texas. Why doesn't the same apply to murderous officers?

"New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is pushing a bill that would hit the newspapers that hounded him over the Bridgegate scandal where it hurts — the bottom line. The proposed legislation would torpedo the state law that requires governments, businesses and people to publish legal notices in print newspapers."

What is particularly outrageous about this is the fact this fascist son of a bitch was never criminally charged for his part in the Bridgegate fiasco. Got a pass. Now, this piece of shit wants to take a hard dump on the First Amendment Freedom of the Press. Think it will fly?

"The Star-Ledger, New Jersey's biggest newspaper, said it's not clear the bill will save anybody money, but 200 to 300 reporters statewide would lose their jobs if this revenue source dried up."

"If you want to give state and local politicians free reign to do their dirty business in the dark, this bill is a Godsend," the paper's board wrote in a Wednesday editorial. "If you want to hasten the decline of the press in the era of Donald Trump, this one is for you. Be ready to rely more on fake news posted on Facebook."

"New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie unleashed his inner pit bull Tuesday on Twitter after the Legislature shelved his bill to yank millions of dollars in ads from state newspapers."

Doesn't your heart bleed for the fascist son of a bitch? A corrupt, abusive governor who went unprosecuted. Remains the American Way in Nazi America.

Once in awhile, there is some justice vis a vis criminal police officers. The Statesman reports:

"A Travis County jury found a man not guilty of attempting to kill an Austin police officer in 2014 following a high-speed chase in the northeast part of the city. The jury cleared Andrew Jones of attempted murder, along with aggravated assault of a public servant, after deliberating for more than five hours Thursday. Officer Matthew Murphy said Jones tried to shoot him following a brief foot chase, but that he was spared harm when the gun did not fire."

The officer lied. Was contradicted by another officer. There were other inconsistencies as well. Readers should understand other charges remain pending against Jones, -- and Jones is no altar boy. Just not guilty of trying to kill the cop.

"New Orleans has agreed to pay $13.3 million to settle lawsuits over injuries and deaths at the hands of police in the weeks before and after Hurricane Katrina."

Amazing how corrupt, abusive, murderous law enforcement has become. ABC News reports:

"The former head of the nation's largest sheriff's department was the driving force behind a conspiracy to thwart a federal investigation into beatings by guards and other abuses at the Los Angeles County jail system he ran, a U.S. prosecutor told a federal jury Monday."

Couldn't be, could it? All officers are honorable, law abiding, aren't they?

"The conspiracy by ex-Sheriff Lee Baca and his aides deprived inmates who were beaten of justice and allowed deputies to escape accountability, Assistant U.S. Attorney Brandon Fox said in his closing argument."

Hasn't this, indeed, been the American Way for decades? Certainly true in Nazi Llano County, right, Sheriff? TL? "Sonny Boy?" Madam County Attorney? Your jackbooted criminal bastards are out of uniform. Where are their swastika armbands?

"This was Mr. Baca's conspiracy," Fox said. "This was dirty from the beginning."

How did it escape notice for as long as it did? Aren't there any watchdogs over law enforcement? Any at all? How does this go on undetected for as long as it did? Despite the best efforts of the Sheriff and his goons to engage in a cover-up?

"The longtime lawman is charged with conspiracy and obstruction of justice for acts his subordinates carried out in August and September 2011 after his deputies discovered an inmate with a smuggled cellphone was an FBI informant using the device to document abuses."

Amazing how aggressively stupid our formerly great country is becoming. Trump wishes to re-vitalize coal. Despite the fact natural gas is cheaper, alternative forms of energy are growing increasingly more economical. The real tragedy is the human cost. Not only from the public that is forced to breathe the pollution generated by coal burning, but the damage done to the health and lives of miners. NPR reports:

"Across Appalachia, coal miners are suffering from the most serious form of the deadly mining disease black lung in numbers more than 10 times what federal regulators report, an NPR investigation has found."

"The government, through the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, reported 99 cases of "complicated" black lung, or progressive massive fibrosis, throughout the country the last five years. But NPR obtained data from 11 black lung clinics in Virginia, West Virginia, Pennsylvania and Ohio, which reported a total of 962 cases so far this decade. The true number is probably even higher, because some clinics had incomplete records and others declined to provide data."

Imagine that. None of this, however, means anything to those in coal country who were making the better part of a hundred grand yearly mining the coal.

"The actual extent of PMF in U.S. coal miners remains unclear," says the report, which appears in this week's issue of the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "I can't say that I've heard really anything worse than this in my career," says Robert Cohen, a pulmonologist at the University of Illinois, Chicago who studies and tracks black lung. "I can't think of anything in this particular field ... that's more frightening than this," Cohen adds."

While the miners and their families are dependent on this income, it remains blood money. Even if they're willing to continue to take the risk and the consequences, why should the rest of the public be subject to the pollution coal burning produces? Since coal is not competitive with natural gas, the nazi son of a bitch about to take office is selling miners a phony bill of goods. The days of coal are over. To give miners false hope is no more than a cruel lie.

There is no question the election of Trump has had a profound impact on the over half of the electorate that did not vote for the nazi. Think not? Wake up. The First Lady put it exactly right. CBS News reports:

"During her final one-on-one interview as first lady with Oprah Winfrey, Michelle Obama weighed in with frank commentary on America’s future, even as she reflected on the hopeful legacy of her husband’s administration. “So your husband’s administration, every -- everything, the election, was all about hope,” Winfrey said in a clip that aired Friday on “CBS This Morning.” “Do you think that this administration achieved that?” The first lady responded in the affirmative. “Yes, I do,” she said, “because we feel the difference now.”

Indeed, many feel exactly like this. Not all of us, however. Many intend to stand up to the fascist son of a bitch. Ferociously, but peacefully resist. Make it as difficult as possible for this piece of shit to effectively govern. As any dictator knows, his power is based on consent of the governed. For over half the population, he doesn't have it. Far from it.

"Mrs. Obama, who was one of Hillary Clinton’s most powerful campaign surrogates, and a fierce critic of Donald Trump on the trail, emphasized the contrast in the nation’s mood, just weeks before Mr. Trump is inaugurated to the White House. “See, now we’re feeling what not having hope feels like. You know? Hope is necessary. It’s a necessary concept,” Obama continued. “And Barack didn’t just talk about hope because he thought it was just a nice slogan to get votes. I mean, he and I and so many believe that if you -- what else do you have if you don’t have hope?”

Madam Obama? Don't give up. It's not over. Just beginning. Things will not stand. If they do, the unwanted dreaded second American revolution already catastrophically looming on the horizon could indeed become reality. Even his fellow Republicans do not seem willing to acquiesce to his imposition of The Fourth Reich. Appear more than willing to offer stiff resistance in the Senate. McCain and Graham certainly don't seem to be onboard with the son of a bitch. ... And don't appear to be the only ones.

“What do you give your kids if you can’t give them hope?” said the first lady. “You know, our children respond to crises the way they see us respond. You know, it’s like the toddler that bumps his head on the table...they look up at you to figure out whether it hurts. And if you’re like, oh, my God, they’re crying. But if you’re like, you know what, babe, it’s okay.”

You need to stand tall, Madam First Lady. This is not the end. Just the beginning.

North Carolina certainly appears to have gone nazi. Think not? Wake up. NPR reports:

"The Republican-controlled North Carolina Legislature has introduced measures to limit the powers of the incoming Democratic governor. Roy Cooper, the state's current attorney general, beat current Republican Gov. Pat McCrory by a slim margin in the November election. McCrory initially refused to concede until a vote recount proved he had lost by about 10,000 votes. On Wednesday, the state Legislature met for a special session called by Republican lawmakers ostensibly to pass a disaster relief bill for Hurricane Matthew."

No more than deception, a determined, concerted effort to thwart the will of voters.

"But once the relief bill had been passed, the Legislature moved to introduce a slew of new laws which, if passed, would go to McCrory to sign. The proposed laws strip the incoming governor of powers his predecessor held, including the power to appoint his Cabinet without legislative approval, the power to appoint trustees for the University of North Carolina and the power to oversee the state's election board."

"The Charlotte Observer reported on Cooper's response to the 11th-hour changes to the state's executive branch powers:

"'Major changes in the way state government operates should be done deliberately, with input from all parties, particularly something as important as elections and making sure people have the opportunity to vote,' said Cooper. ... 'They shouldn't be pushed through in the dark of night.'"

That's not how things are now done in our formerly great country. Certainly, a portend of far worse to come as the country continues to nazify.

"North Carolina Republicans stripped the incoming Democratic governor of some of his authority on Friday and they were on the cusp of an even greater power grab, an extraordinary move that critics said flies in the face of voters. Just last week, it appeared Republicans were ready to finally accept Democrats' narrow win in a contentious governor's race. As it turns out, they weren't done fighting. In a surprise special session in the dying days of the old administration, some say the Republican-dominated legislature has thrown the government into total disarray, approving two bills aimed at emasculating incoming Gov. Roy Cooper's administration. One of them was signed into law by the current governor."

"Cooper, the current attorney general, has threatened to sue. And many in the state are accusing Republicans of letting sour grapes over losing the governor's mansion turn into a legislative coup. "This was a pure power grab," said retired school librarian Carolyn White, 62, a long-time demonstrator once arrested as part of the "Moral Monday" protests against GOP-led legislative policies. "I got arrested two years ago. Did it make any difference? No. But just like the civil rights movement, it's forward together. You just have to keep going forward."

It's good, indeed encouraging this travesty has attracted quite a bit of public attention.

"The protesters were so loud that Senate and House cleared the galleries — a highly unusual move. More than 50 people were arrested this week, and as demonstrators were led away from the Legislative Building, some chanted "all political power comes from the people." Those that remained behind could only watch the debate through glass windows or listen to it online. Hundreds stomped their feet and yelled outside the gallery, causing several Republican lawmakers to note they were having trouble hearing during the debate. Democrats repeatedly stated their objections."

Just the beginning. Think what things will be like when Trump takes office. The resistance, though peaceful, will be ferocious. Make it difficult for the nazi to rule. Protesters are quite correct. Power does come from the consent of the governed. The nazi has no mandate. Lost the popular vote by some three and a half million votes. Yet, the nazi falsely claims to have a mandate? What mandate?

Power does certainly come from the consent of the governed. Think not? Wake up. NBC News reports:

"Close to 1,300 workers in the tech world have so far promised not to take part in building a database of Muslims if asked to do so."

That's called standing tall. Peacefully, but ferociously resisting the nazi.

"The online pledge comes as President-elect Donald Trump met Wednesday at Trump Tower with Silicon Valley executives, including those from Facebook and Apple. Trump solicited their advice and said he'll offer his help to allow them to continue innovating."

"As of late Thursday afternoon, more than 1,300 people have signed the pledge, many listing their professions as engineers, designers, and business executives at tech organizations and companies based in the United States. "We are choosing to stand in solidarity with Muslim Americans, immigrants, and all people whose lives and livelihoods are threatened by the incoming administration's proposed data collection policies," the open letter reads. "We refuse to build a database of people based on their Constitutionally-protected religious beliefs. We refuse to facilitate mass deportations of people the government believes to be undesirable."

Certainly, makes one proud to be an American. ... In an otherwise exceptionally dismal, dangerous time as our formerly great country continues to nazify. Becomes The Fourth Reich.

"Refusing to participate in creating databases for the U.S. government to target people based on race, religion, or national origin. Advocating within their tech organizations to minimize collection and retention of data that would aid the targeting of individuals based on ethnicity or religion. Speaking out publicly if they discover the illegal or unethical use of data."

Trump continues to have ethical issues vis a vis his vast business holdings. This time, his daughter remains front and center. NPR reports:

"As this post was publishing, the auction for coffee with Ivanka Trump was pulled from the Charitybuzz website. The link now redirects to its home page, with no explanation."

"Our previous post continues: On the auction site Charitybuzz, you could bid $3,500 to have tea with Sarah Ferguson, the duchess of York. If you plunk down $5,000, you might be the top bidder for lunch with actress Julianna Margulies of The Good Wife. Coffee with one Ivanka Trump, on the other hand, will cost you $77,888 — at least."

How about that? At a time when she's deeply involved in the Trump Transition.

"The auction for coffee with President-elect Donald Trump's oldest daughter is a fundraiser for the Eric Trump Foundation, which says the proceeds will benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The New York Times has reported on the auction and raised questions about the ethical implications of selling off face time with the future first family — especially given Ivanka Trump's perceived influence over her father."

"Ivanka has been seen as playing a particularly key, and controversial, role as Donald Trump transitions to the White House. NPR's Jessica Taylor reported on one eyebrow-raising moment last month:

"Trump's daughter, Ivanka, sat in on a meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe last week, raising questions about the mixing of the family's business and politics. There were initial reports that Trump had inquired about security clearance for his children, but the president-elect has denied that. Still, it's clear his children have influence with their father when it comes to politics, and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, Ivanka's husband, figures to play a potentially prominent role in a Trump White House, formally or informally."

Think the fascist son of a bitch has the temperament to have his finger on the nuclear button? NPR reports:

"One day after Vanity Fair printed a highly critical piece about one of his restaurants, President-elect Donald Trump escalated his feud with the magazine's editor, calling him a "no talent."

"Has anyone looked at the really poor numbers of @VanityFair Magazine," Trump said in an early-morning Tweet. "Way down, big trouble, dead! Graydon Carter, no talent, will be out!"

"Has anyone looked at the really poor numbers of @VanityFair Magazine. Way down, big trouble, dead! Graydon Carter, no talent, will be out!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 15, 2016"

Frightening, isn't it? The mark of a dictator. A fascist, national socialist dictator.

"The tweet illustrates Trump's ability to use his very visible platform as president-elect to lash back at critics of his businesses and underscores the conflicts of interest he will face in office."

Indeed, it does. A portend of things to come as the country continues to nazify.

Think someone with a thin skin qualified to be 'President?' Fox News reports:

"Donald Trump fired back at Bill Clinton on Tuesday after the former president was quoted mocking the incoming president’s intelligence and blaming FBI Director James Comey and “angry, white men” for Hillary Clinton’s defeat."

Had Trump any brains, any restraint at all, he would have ignored the former President.

"The comments emerged after an editor at the Bedford-Pound Ridge Record Review caught an impromptu Q-and-A with Bill Clinton at a New York bookstore and published the details in the paper’s print edition. The editorial did not appear online but the contents were reported by Politico. “He doesn’t know much,” Clinton said when asked if Trump was smart. “One thing he does know is how to get angry, white men to vote for him.” He also said Trump called him the day after the election."

"Trump, on Twitter, disputed that detail and tried to turn the tables on the former president – questioning the Clinton team’s grasp of what it took to motivate voters in key swing states.

Bill Clinton stated that I called him after the election. Wrong, he called me (with a very nice congratulations). He "doesn't know much" ...
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 20, 2016

especially how to get people, even with an unlimited budget, out to vote in the vital swing states ( and more). They focused on wrong states
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 20, 2016"

Does Trump truly believe this flatters himself and his henchmen, -- or is it simply further evidence he remains egregiously unfit for office?

The President is placing pressure on Trump vis a vis his (Trump's) failure to back investigations into the Russian hacking. The Washington Times reports:

"The White House doubled down Thursday on President-elect Donald Trump’s purported knowledge of Russia’s hacking during the election, saying Mr. Trump should “cooperate” with a government investigation into whether Moscow’s interference helped him to win the presidency."

Why shouldn't he? Why wouldn't he, -- unless he was traitorously, treasonously in collusion with the Russian dictator?

"White House press secretary Josh Earnest said that rather than attacking the credibility of U.S. intelligence agencies, Mr. Trump should “actually be supportive of a thorough, transparent, vigorous, non-political investigation into exactly what happened, and to cooperate with it.”

Members of Trump's own party are calling for an investigation. Rightfully, so. What is Trump so afraid of? The truth? If he and his henchmen were not in collusion with the Russian dictator, they have nothing to fear. Nothing at all.

"President Obama’s spokesman repeated the administration’s accusation that Mr. Trump “obviously knew that Russia was engaged in malicious cyber-activity that was helping him and hurting Secretary [Hillary] Clinton’s campaign.”

If that extends to collusion, it's called treason. Is that what Trump and his henchmen fear?

"Two intelligence sources says the FBI agrees with the CIA assessment that Russia interfered in the U.S. election, in part, to help Donald Trump. An intelligence source also notes that a memo went out from CIA Director John Brennan to the agency's workforce Friday. Intelligence chiefs, including Brennan, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and FBI Director James Comey met earlier this week, according to the memo, and, "There is strong consensus among us on the scope, nature and intent of Russian interference in our presidential election."

The question to be answered is whether or not Trump and/or his henchmen colluded with the Russians.

"The world is entering a new cyber era — one with no ground rules, and with the potential for traditional espionage to be "turbocharged" by the Internet, President Obama told NPR in an exclusive interview. "Among the big powers, there has been a traditional understanding of, that everybody is trying to gather intelligence on everybody else," Obama told Morning Edition's Steve Inskeep in a wide-ranging interview on Thursday. "It's no secret that Russian intelligence officers, or Chinese, or for that matter Israeli or British or other intelligence agencies, their job is to get insight into the workings of other countries that they're not reading in the newspapers every day."

We should talk? Our government has been engaging in espionage for decades. Karma is indeed a bitch. What goes around comes around. We're learning that the hard way.

"One of the things that we're going to have to do over the next decade is to ultimately arrive at some rules of what is a new game," he said. "And that is the way in which traditional propaganda and traditional covert influence efforts are being turbocharged by the Internet."

That's a crock of shit. We've never played by the rules. Our enemies certainly won't. The President sat on his hands during the campaign despite the fact he knew the Russians had hacked us. Did so apparently because he didn't want to be accused of interfering in the election by the Republicans. Besides that, he thought Clinton was going to win.

"President Obama says the United States will respond to Russian cyberattacks that the intelligence community has concluded were part of an effort to influence the 2016 presidential election."

A little too little, much to late. The President concertedly did nothing during the campaign when the damage was being done.

"In an interview with NPR's Steve Inskeep that is airing Friday on Morning Edition, Obama said, "I think there is no doubt that when any foreign government tries to impact the integrity of our elections ... we need to take action. And we will — at a time and place of our own choosing. Some of it may be explicit and publicized; some of it may not be."

The President's rhetoric rings hollow. He's talking out both sides his ass. All talk, no action. As in Aleppo, and how he failed to follow up against the Syrian dictator.

This is what happens when you cowardly fail to stand up to a dictator. NBC News reports:

"Determined to stop Russia's interference in the presidential campaign, at least one of President Obama's senior advisers urged him to make the ultimate threat to Russian President Vladimir Putin, U.S. officials told NBC News: Mess with the vote and we will consider it an act of war. But Obama opted not to issue a warning that specific when he spoke to Putin about the hacking during a September meeting at the G-20 summit in China, said intelligence officials offering NBC News exclusive new details."

The above is one of several legitimate reasons our formerly great country is no longer respected.

"The president didn't want to inflame an already tense situation, the officials said. Instead, he used less specific language to warn Putin of consequences if Russian interference didn't stop. The release of hacked Democratic emails continued."

That's called cowardice. What did the President expect Putin to do? Back off?

"A month later, the U.S. used the latest incarnation of an old Cold War communications system — the so-called "Red Phone" that connects Moscow to Washington — to reinforce Obama's September warning that the U.S. would consider any interference on Election Day a grave matter. This time Obama used the phrase "armed conflict." "International law, including the law for armed conflict, applies to actions in cyberspace," said part of a message sent over the Red Phone on Oct. 31, according to a senior U.S. official. "We will hold Russia to those standards."

"Did the message work? "Look at the results," said an Obama administration official. "There was nothing done on Election Day, so it must have worked."

What goddamned idiots. The damage had already been done. The Russians didn't have to do anything on Election Day. Their man won thanks to their interference. "What a country!"

The loading of corporate CEOs into Trump's Cabinet is quite deliberate. How better to line the pockets of the top 1%? NBC News reports:

"Outsized CEO pay is an issue coming under increasing scrutiny, and Donald Trump has already promised to do away with legislation that would require companies to be more transparent. However, compensation experts say an executive branch filled with corporate titans could benefit the relative few atop the corporate ladder at the expense of everyone else."

Why else would the fascist bastard overload the Cabinet with corporate titans? Has to take care of his own, doesn't he? F--k the peasants, right, Donald?

"Furthermore, because Trump is one of those CEOs himself, it might very well "put a halo effect around the whole issue [of executive pay] for a while," said John Challenger, CEO of executive outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas."

That's the intention. Zero-sum game, forget? Winner-take-all. The clueless idiots who support this charlatan are in for a rude awakening. Tough shit. Enjoy the f--king. You've been bamboozled.

Once again, Trump displayed abject ignorance of the Middle East, no understanding of what is likely to set off a powder keg in the region. The Washington Times reports:

"President-elect Donald Trump has announced that he will nominate attorney David Friedman as U.S. ambassador to Israel, selecting an envoy who supports Israeli settlements and other changes to U.S. policies in the region. Friedman said he looked forward to carrying out his duties from “the U.S. embassy in Israel’s eternal capital, Jerusalem,” even though the embassy is in Tel Aviv."

This idiot obviously wants renewal of widespread fighting in the region which such policy will certainly trigger.

"Like some of his predecessors, Trump has vowed to move the American embassy to Jerusalem, a politically charged act that would anger Palestinians who want east Jerusalem as part of their sovereign territory. The move would also distance the U.S. from most of the international community, including its closest allies in Western Europe and the Arab world."

Should this happen, would likely eventually sadly result in the ultimate demise of the State of Israel. With or without continued support of the Israeli aggressor by the United States. This would quickly force all Arab countries in the Middle East to put aside their differences, concertedly fight the aggressor.

Does this sound like someone rational? Qualified to be President? CNN reports:

"President-elect Donald Trump said Friday his supporters were "violent" during the 2016 campaign."

"Trump made the admission Friday night during a rally here on the Florida leg of his "Thank You" tour. During the campaign, he repeatedly downplayed violent outbursts his supporters displayed at times toward protesters and insisted that paid activists were instead responsible for inciting violence at his rallies."

It's called lying. Saying one thing one day, the direct opposite the next. Lying.

"You people were vicious, violent, screaming, 'Where's the wall? We want the wall!' Screaming, 'Prison! Prison! Lock her up!' I mean you are going crazy. I mean, you were nasty and mean and vicious and you wanted to win, right?" Trump said Friday. "But now, you're mellow and you're cool and you're not nearly as vicious or violent, right? Because we won, right?"

This sound like someone in control of his faculties? The personification of stability? ... Or, a clone of Adolf Hitler.

"During the campaign, Trump repeatedly referred to his rallies as the "safest place on Earth" and called them a "love fest."

"Meanwhile, some Trump supporters occasionally physically assaulted protesters at rallies across the country during the 2016 campaign. In several instances, Trump supporters were also assaulted by protesters after exiting Trump rallies. Several Trump supporters were charged with assault after attacking protesters at different rallies."

These are precisely the very same tactics Hitler employed some eight decades ago at his rallies. It's called national socialism, fascism, nazism.

"And while Trump suggested that his supporters had mellowed out in their rhetoric as well -- "now you're laid back, you're cool, you're mellow, you're basking in the glory of victory," he said Friday -- the crowd broke out in "Lock her up!" chants twice."

The nazi has lost his mind. Remains an exigent threat to all civil and constitutional rights and liberties. Yet, his sick sycophants support, defend, justify this shit. Insanely believe Trump will somehow, someway, someday improve their lives. While nomination of his Cabinet members scream otherwise. Most of them are titans of the corporate management suite. Only line the pockets of the corporate management suite and shareholders.

Do it at expense of laid off, middle class, corporate-owned, human chattel it now calls former employees. The bastards executed these lay offs at a time of record corporate profits and cash reserves. Now, you clueless idiots think somehow things will change? Improve for the middle class? By a 'President' who has fleeced millions from looted contractors? Millions from students fleeced at Trump 'University?' Used the Trump Foundation to line his pockets in direct violation of the law? You're idiots. Bamboozled fools.

"One Trump supporter who obtained a media pass from the Trump transition office shouted from the press pen that Trump's former opponent Hillary Clinton should be waterboarded. And a Trump supporter threw an empty water bottle at a reporter following the rally, calling the reporter "trash."
That incident came after the President-elect repeatedly called reporters "very dishonest" and suggested without evidence that the media distorted exit polls on Election Day."

These are precisely the tactics employed by Adolf Hitler. Wake up. You've been bamboozled. Had the wool pulled over your eyes. Bought a phony bill of goods from a liar and his henchmen.

There are some courageous Christians willing to stand up to Trump. NPR reports:

"A prominent evangelical leader who harshly criticized Donald Trump during the presidential campaign now faces a backlash from fellow evangelicals who backed Trump."

"Russell Moore, who presides over the political arm of the Southern Baptist Convention, called Trump "an awful candidate" and criticized "the old-guard religious right political establishment" for supporting him, notwithstanding Trump's "serious moral problems" and a Southern Baptist tradition of opposing politicians whose personal behavior is considered un-Christian."

At least there is one evangelical Christian willing to stand up to the nazi bastard.

"The religious right," Moore argued in an October speech, "turns out to be the people the religious right warned us about." As president of the Southern Baptists' Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, Moore is in charge of his organization's policymaking and lobbying apparatus."

Indeed. Quite right. Christ called them Pharisees. What ever truly changes in some 2,000 years?

In follow up to the last edition, federal Judge Sam Sparks in Austin put a stay on the Governor's new rules requiring an aborted fetus be buried or cremated until he (the Judge) has the chance to conduct a hearing shortly. The Statesman reports:

"The regulation was set to go into effect Monday. Sparks suspended it until Jan. 6, by which time he will have heard two days of testimony and made a decision about whether to block the rule permanently, as lawyers representing abortion providers have asked him to do."

Amazing how the Nazi Right continues to deliberately shit on the First Amendment Establishment Clause.

"Sparks initially requested the state to voluntarily delay implementing the rule until he could make a ruling, and he appeared agitated at the state's refusal to do so. "This is the first time the state of Texas has ever said it was going to go ahead (with implementing a regulation) when there's a suit of substance before" a federal court, Sparks said from the bench."

Not surprising, is it? Republican nazis have been emboldened by the election of the nation's first national socialist, fascist 'President.'

"David Brown, a lawyer for the Center for Reproductive Rights who argued the case for the abortion providers, said the fetal remains rule was a political response to the Supreme Court's decision and had little to do with the agency's mission of health services."

Indeed, appears to be the case. Highly indicative of the concerted nazification of our formerly great state. -- A state where our national socialist Governor, then Attorney General, failed to do anything about the criminal activity of Wells Fargo. Again, Governor, did the criminals at Wells Fargo bribe you?

"The rule is intended to send a message to the Supreme Court that Texas is going to defy them and to send a message to women that the state's ideology is more important than women's liberty," Brown said."

Indeed, a theme that has been repeated over and over and over again in this publication.

At the same time, the criminal bastards at Wells Fargo continue to talk out both sides their ass. While falsely claiming they're going to make it right regarding their criminal activity vis a vis phony accounts set up to achieve ersatz sales goals, they continue to use arbitration to dismiss lawsuits. Hide their criminal activity. The Statesman reports:

"Yet even as the bank reels in the court of public opinion, Wells Fargo has been winning its legal battles to kill off lawsuits. Judges have ruled that Wells Fargo customers must go to arbitration over the fraudulent accounts."

That means their bought and paid for 'arbiters' rule in favor of the criminal bastards. The proceedings are hidden from public view. The solution to all this is criminal prosecution of all those in Wells Fargo responsible for criminal activity, including Amanda S. Wright, Kingsland Wells Fargo Branch Manager.

China once again stuck it to the the United States in direct violation of international law. NPR reports:

"China has seized an unmanned underwater vehicle deployed by a U.S. Navy ship in international waters, according to Pentagon officials. The seizure of the underwater vehicle took place Thursday, about 50 nautical miles northwest of Subic Bay in the Philippines, Pentagon Press Secretary Peter Cook said in a statement Friday."

"The U.S. has issued a demarche — a formal diplomatic protest — and demanded the drone's return, Reuters reports. "We call upon China to return our UUV immediately, and to comply with all of its obligations under international law," Pentagon Press Secretary Peter Cook said in his statement. The incident occurred in the long-disputed waters of the South China Sea, where several countries have various overlapping territorial claims. China has been the most aggressive in claiming the strategically and economically significant waters as its own."

Are we idiots? Out to lunch? Clueless? This occurs in disputed waters and we don't better protect what's ours? Don't have sufficient military assets there so we could have immediately and effectively reacted?

Subsequent to writing the above, China returned the drone. Why do we put up with this shit? Prior to its return, Trump advised China to keep the drone. Does this sound like someone rational, fit to be 'President?"

"Taxpayers will dole out nearly $10 billion more next year to help people buy Obamacare health care plans through the insurance exchanges, according to a study released Thursday that highlighted the spiraling costs of President Obama’s signature achievement."

This failed law does absolutely nothing to rein in bottomless provider greed. One of the reasons why it's failing.

"The federal government will spend $42.6 billion to subsidize customers’ Obamacare plans, up from $32.8 billion this year, the Center for Health and Economy said, amid widespread questions over the law’s ability to survive."

In a humorous aside to all the crap going on, a cat got the best of a politician in Texas. ... A feline that certainly has it altogether. CBS News reports:

"A city councilman is out -- and the beloved library cat he tried to chase off gets to stay, CBS Dallas/Fort Worth reports."

"Elzie Clements’ final meeting as a member of the White Settlement City Council was Tuesday night. Clements tried to have Browser, the city’s docile grey tabby library cat, fired this past summer."

"Browser got his job at the White Settlement Public Library when he was just a kitten. That was in October of 2010, the library’s website says. He was recruited from a local animal shelter as an inexpensive, effective method of pest control."

"In July, a city worker apparently demanded Browser’s removal after the worker was not allowed to bring a puppy to work at City Hall. Two-legged library workers were outraged, and many people who use the library often said that they were unhappy with Bowser’s dismissal."

"The White Settlement City Council took up the issue of what to do with Browser, with Clements being the lone vote to get rid of the favorable feline."

"Browser got a reprieve following a world-wide backlash, and reports say there were still some hard feelings among council members after the cat fight."

"Councilman Clements eventually ran out of his nine lives after he was defeated in a landslide in November’s election."

"Mayor Ron White says as far as he’s concerned, Browser’s job title is now “Library Cat for Life.” “Browser is still employed and will be as long as he wishes to continue his duties as mascot and reading helper for the children at the library,” White said."

Happy end to a sad, sad story. No? With all the crap going on all over the country, however, think they'd have other more pressing issues?

"White said he’s gotten thousands of messages about the cat from around the world, and many families have already offered to adopt Browser."

Nothing quite like an animal to generate so much interest and concern. While concern for an animal is indeed extremely important, so are all the kids across the country living in poverty with no future.

Interestingly, a carefully constructed study indicated the obvious. Female physicians provide better care. NPR reports:

"In a study that is sure to rile male doctors, Harvard researchers have found that female doctors who care for elderly hospitalized patients get better results. Patients cared for by women were less likely to die or return to the hospital after discharge."

"Previous research has shown that female doctors are more likely to follow recommendations about prevention counseling and to order preventive tests like Pap smears and mammograms. But the latest work, published Monday in JAMA Internal Medicine, is the first to show a big difference in the result that matters most to patients: life or death. The study's authors estimate "that approximately 32,000 fewer patients would die if male physicians could achieve the same outcomes as female physicians every year."

Why should that come as a surprise? Female physicians are far more empathetic. Don't consider themselves gods. Take the time to listen. All this despite the fact there is a continuing gender pay gap. Why should a male doctor be paid more when he is likely to consider himself a god? Come off like a pompous jackass? Tell someone to suck it up? Rather than display empathy?

-- To TB, nothing is more important than the grand kid and his sister. Nothing. ... "All the King's horses, all the King's men..."

Aleppo remains a humanitarian disaster of epic proportions. Indeed, a colossal failure of the world community. Including the UN, NATO, Europe, the Middle East, the United States, the entire civilized world, etc.. All of which did nothing. Nothing at all. Just talk. Empty rhetoric as the innocent were murdered. Things remain so bad, the First Lady was asked for help by a girl and her mother in Aleppo. NBC News reports:

"Bana al-Abed and her mother, Fatemah, whose plight in Aleppo has captured the world's attention through Twitter, have appealed to First Lady Michelle Obama in a video message sent to NBC News. "I talk to you as a mother," Fatemah says in the message. "I implore you to help us ... because we are so afraid." The message ends with a plea from seven-year-old Bana: "Hello, Mrs. Obama. Please help us."

This atrocity is already beginning to have severe diplomatic consequences, including the recent murder of a Russian diplomat. The Washington Post reports:

"A gunman in Turkey wearing a suit and tie opened fire Monday on Russia’s ambassador, killing the diplomat and wounding several others in an attack possibly linked to Russia’s military involvement in Syria. The gunman was killed as panicked people scattered for cover at a photo exhibit in the Turkish capital, Ankara, where the ambassador was a guest speaker."

It is particularly interesting to note the gunman was a young policeman. Not your run of the mill terrorist.

"The Reuters news agency, citing security sources, said the attacker was an off-duty police officer."

“Allah Akbar! Do not forget Aleppo!” said the gunman, according to the widely circulated video. “Do not forget Syria! Do not forget Aleppo! Do not forget Syria! As long as our lands are not safe, you will not be safe!"

The killer was himself killed. The insanity continues in the region. The assassination of a Russian diplomat likely a portend of more to come. Sadly, so.

Had originally intended to make the following a continuing Christmas tradition, A Short Christmas Tale. Last year's Tale was written prior to heavy Russian involvement in the catastrophe perpetrated by Syria and its war criminal dictator. Considering how badly circumstances have deteriorated the past year, where ISIS has virtually been ignored as Assad, his henchmen, and his Russian friends concentrated on murdering civilians, does not seem appropriate to post a new edition of the Tale. The first two parts, however, will be posted here in tribute to all who've died. Died for nothing. As the world did nothing.

Merry Christmas to all and your loved ones. Part 2 is indeed a continuation of Part 1. Is dedicated to all who've suffered in Aleppo.

***Things get pretty hectic this time of year in NPC, -- North Pole City. ... Santa's aging, hurting. Arthritis a bit too much for the jolly old elf. -- Pole Cat's worried. Watched ole St. Nick age most gracefully. Year after year. Interestingly, been best friends with Santa's number one, good ole Rudolph a long, long time. ... Why would a cat be close friends with a reindeer one might wonder? Two peas in a pod.

Both have a shiny bright red nose that glows in the dark. -- Both took a lot of grief from their compadres over the years. Always one to think ahead, however, Santa thought Pole Cat could certainly take over Christmas Eve duties, fill in for the aging reindeer should it become necessary, -- eventually. ... And sadly, it had just become so. -- Aging had not been kind to Rudolph, what with having to move the sleigh some 600 miles a second with more than a little help from his friends of course. -- Knees and hips had worn out over the years.

Pole Cat was a smart, experienced feline with another reason for wanting to make the trip, -- if his body could indeed hold up. Cats have a remarkable knack of making social contact, communicating with one another. Even at great distances. Pole Cat had his eye for years on a sweet old friend named Purr in Forboden. ... One heck of a good looking feline, -- if he had to say so himself.

Purr's mistress was Grandmarm. A dear sweet elderly woman who took great care of Purr. -- Purr always returned the favor. Grandmarm was getting up there, -- almost 93. Had been abandoned by her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren. ... Same old same old about the young not caring about the old. What ever changes? Right?

Worried Purr. Greatly. Loved the dear old lady. Grandmarm wasn't doing well. Even Purr couldn't raise her spirits any longer. Pole Cat knew all this. Sensed it deep in his heart. -- Goes back to that Zen thing cats seem to have such a knack for. Decided something had to be done. Now. Also knew his best friend Rudolph might not be up to the rigors of the task fast approaching the very next night. Christmas Eve.

... So did the jolly old elf himself. First time in history. Both knew what had to be done. -- Pole Cat didn't really know if he had it in him, however. Wasn't so sure of himself as he had been in his younger, bolder days. Assured Santa and Rudolph he'd do his best no matter what. More than ever, the old cat certainly wanted to finally meet Purr. Might even get one last chance. -- If he could make it. ... Or, die trying. Go for broke. One last time.

Pole Cat got it in gear that most magical next night. Managed to get the team up to flight speed. As they approached the United States, Santa gave the order to reduce air speed. -- So he could wave to the National Guard pilots there to greet them as they passed on their way to their first stop. -- Always a tricky move since the pilots at full after burner still couldn't catch him at sleigh flight cruising speed.

Yet, the wave to the pilots was extremely important to Santa. He even made a point of flying in formation with the jets all the way to his first destination. For some reason or other, the pilots, however, were never believed by their commanders upon debriefing after their return to base. -- But they knew the truth and that was all that mattered.

Purr and Grandmarm were exhausted that evening. Retired earlier than usual. -- Purr was more than happy to curl up on Grandmarm's bed that cold, cold December night. Snow had been lightly falling all day. A light sleeper, Purr got up in the middle of the night to nibble on some Tender Vittles Grandmarm always left her in the kitchen. Imagine the old cat's surprise when she saw a warm red glow begin to overtake, overwhelm the kitchen. Ambiance like she had never seen before. What could it be?

Heard the gentle ring of sleigh bells in the backyard. -- What the .... ??? Couldn't be, could it? Purr quickly forgot the pain in her hind legs, the fact she was an old cat. Jumped up like a kitten into the window to see what was happening outside. Couldn't believe her eyes. Blinked. Rubbed a paw across both. Was she dreaming?

Then, heard a light tap on the glass. Saw Pole Cat and Santa smiling at her. Having just woken from the brilliant cherry-red glow permeating the house, Grandmarm stood right behind Purr. A look of wonder quickly crossing her face. A flashback to Christmas after Christmas many, many years ago. As tears flowed down one cheek, then the other.

... A far more sinister flashback, as well, to incident after incident of violent physical abuse perpetrated by her father in the name of discipline all those decades before. Had trouble walking days after a beating. A fishing pole broken over her back. No kid should ever have to live like this. The overwhelming flow of emotion surprised her, --having thought she had put it all behind so, so long ago.

Purr turned around, looked up quizzically, lovingly rubbed her head against her hand, then uttered, "Brrooww?" That is, "Mom, won't you let them in? It's cold outside." "Yes, you're quite right sweet, sweet darlin' my most favorite little girl. What was I thinking?," responded Grandmarm struggling to regain some sense of composure. -- A night Purr and Grandmarm would certainly never ever forget. ... Nor would Pole Cat and Santa. ***

*** Things had not gone well in NPC, -- North Pole City this past year. Santa's health had markedly deteriorated. There was no way he would be able to make the trip. What to do? There had always been a contingency plan. Mrs. Claus in fact had made several trips over the years as co-pilot. Knew what she had to do and how it needed to be done.

People had had the wrong impression of her. Thought she only baked cookies and gingerbread men. Not so. Was truly an equal partner to Santa. ...Must be said, however, -- sometimes to the old elf's chagrin. ... He knew she was most unhappy about his decision to postpone deliveries to Syria for security reasons the last few years.

They had always agreed the one making the trip ultimately made the decision as to how it was to be executed. --The first time in history Santa was scared. Absolutely terrified. For the safety of his wife and crew. Santa had succumbed to ISIS terror. Allowed these brutal bastards to effect his judgment. Prevent him from doing his job.

Mrs. Claus believed the terrorists had won. Default driven by unbridled fear. Santa was quite aware she would probably force the issue if given the chance. A growing sense of dread began to overtake him. Paralyzing gut-wrenching terror. His inability to make the trip this year was a perfect opportunity. An opportunity she intended to take advantage of.

... And, indeed, she did. But before doing so, decided to talk to Pole Cat first, -- who had guided the sleigh in Rudolph's absence the year before. Pole Cat was certainly one tough old cat. Game for just about anything. Especially, in his day. ... Had kicked every canine's gluteus maximi in the community bar none. He just wouldn't put up with any dog poking fun at his brilliantly glowing red nose. Even as he aged, they wisely gave him wide birth.

-- Mrs. Claus suspected she would have his support no matter what. She did. Not only that, advised he strongly suspected she would not only have his support, but that of Rudolph and the rest of the reindeer. Mrs. Claus decided it was time to get the whole sleigh crew together for a strategy session. ... Without Santa's knowledge.

She planned to enter Syrian airspace at visual flight speed, -- rather than warp. To make a point. ... Everyone on the ground would see the sleigh. They would know they were there and did exist. More than just a tale believed in by tots. Extremely dangerous. They could be shot down. Yet, Mrs. Claus believed it wouldn't happen.

-- Their visual presence would be so unnerving she thought it would protect them from harm. More importantly, it would indicate there was a much higher power at work. There was. The Creator had indeed empowered ole St. Nick several hundred years earlier. Wasn't particularly happy about recent atrocities committed by ISIS, however, to say the least.

Mrs. Claus was quite aware of the Creator's profound chagrin, growing anger. Frustration at the world's inability to solve a problem it had created. She decided to finally do something about it. At least make the attempt. The day had come to meet with her crew. She addressed Pole Cat, Rudolph, and the rest of the reindeer. Explained her plan. Then asked for a show of hands in support, excuse me, paws. Every paw immediately shot up. Including Rudolph's. Quite an act of courage since he was still having severe problems with arthritis.

This was a trip he was not going to miss no matter what. No matter the personal cost. Including his life. All the reindeer, as well as Pole Cat, were unhappy they had not delivered goodies to the children of Syria for several years. All were willing to risk life and limb. Mrs. Claus was most impressed with their courage. Hid a tear or two as she saw every paw rocket up in support. Unanimous support. It was decided Pole Cat and Rudolph would fly lead, -- to light the way.

What she truly worried about was Santa's reaction to their decision. She was going no matter what, however. It was a week before Christmas. She broke the news to the jolly old elf. As expected, he was not a happy camper. Feared for his wife and crew. Knew she was determined, however. Would go no matter what he thought or advised.

Santa had maintained contact with the American fighter pilots, however, that always greeted him when he approached U.S. airspace. Phoned one of them when informed of his wife's decision. The existence of Santa was well-known about the aviation community. Although no one was willing to admit it. Or talk openly.

That was about to change. The President was quickly informed. Despite the fact careers of the pilots were indeed at stake. The decision was made by the coalition to cease all hostilities three hours before the sleigh was to enter Syrian airspace. The cease fire would be in effect 24 hours. Fighter jets were to be withdrawn to the Syrian border, kept fully armed, fueled, and in the air. Allies were informed by unencrypted command and control transmissions the enemy could not miss or mistake.

ISIS did not know what to think. Thought it might be a ruse. A trick. Decided it best to play along. Break off hostilities at the hour of truce. See what happens. Three hours later Mrs. Claus gave the order to drop out of warp about two hundred miles off the Syrian border. Immediately, the sleigh came into visual contact with the fighter jets.

She waved to each as they broke off to remain out of Syrian airspace. They were going in unescorted. The squadron leader radioed her they were not being illuminated, that is, all anti-aircraft radar was still off. He wished her luck and godspeed as the sleigh entered Syrian airspace. They were flying in at visual flight speed. On their own. Unescorted. No fighter cover.

Immediately, ISIS ground fighters spotted the sleigh and reindeer. Were astounded to see a cat and a reindeer illuminating the way with brightly lit red noses. Not a shot was fired as the sleigh proceeded about its mission. Delivery after delivery was made without incident or hostile action. Live coverage of this most unusual night was provided by media as Mrs. Claus and her crew continued their work. Indeed, a sight to behold.

When all deliveries were finished in Syria, Mrs. Claus ordered the sleigh back into warp to hopefully finish all deliveries within 24 hours, -- and dawn breaking. Meanwhile, Grandmarm and Purr had watched the unfolding drama on the boob tube. Both wondered if Mrs. Claus and Pole Cat would visit them before the night was through.

Doubted it since the sleigh would spend several additional hours in Syria making deliveries at visual flight speed. Both were tired, totally exhausted from all the high drama. Decided to retire for the evening. Meanwhile, Mrs. Claus and crew were desperately trying to make up time. Determined to finish the work before dawn.

As the first tinges of light appeared in the east, the sleigh dropped out of warp. Mrs. Claus and crew could see Purr and Grandmarm's house right below. As they drew closer, the red glow flooded the house, awakening both Purr and Grandmarm. Both could see Mrs. Claus carrying two red coats as Grandmarm let them in.

Both were informed by Mrs. Claus they were to be guests of her and Santa at North Pole City. The coats were to keep them warm for the trip to NPC. They got in the sleigh and Mrs. Claus ordered warp drive. A small fraction of a second later they dropped out of warp and were hovering above, receiving a standing ovation from the entire NPC community including Santa. He was so proud of her and the crew. Grateful they were all alive, but exhausted.

Twentyfour hours had passed. The ceasefire was over. Not a shot had been fired. ...48 hours had passed. Still no gunfire. Both sides were waiting for the other to make the first move. Neither did. Three days later both sides, sadly, still had no clue how this would end. Imagine that. They couldn't figure it out. Hadn't a clue. What would it take? ***

The following email has been sent nearly daily to a woman at 2freehosting.com who was responsible for caving into Wells Fargo. This email is re-edited occasionally as circumstances change. Should you bank with Wells Fargo you may wish to ask them why they engage in deceptive trade practices and if in fact they indeed bribed Texas Gov. Greg Abbott while he was Texas Attorney General to ignore a complaint filed against them:

The exact same messaging, other than IP addresses, is the same on the wink
and t15 FTP servers. This hacking attack apparently occurred the day
after Wells Fargo closed two accounts because I publicly accused them of
criminal activity. Your company needs to look into this matter. Get these
FTP servers up and running again. A criminal complaint will be filed with
the U.S. Attorney regarding all the ongoing criminal activity by Wells
Fargo, now extended to hacking and undue interference with the webhosts.
Has 2freehosting been bribed and/or pressured by Wells Fargo? Certainly,
one of numerous questions to be forwarded to criminal prosecutors.

Welcome. Liberty In Peril has been relaunched at a new URL:
libertyinperil.com. This is a new commercial site hosted in an overseas
country, which unlike our own, does value free speech, Net security,
privacy, equally importantly, despises hackers. Banks too big to fail
should not have the ability to shut down ftp servers on four Liberty In
Peril websites, making upload impossible. -- Simply, because they don't
want the truth of their criminal activity reported to the public.

Should this site not be kept up, running, and fully operational, the
libertyinperil.com domain will be quickly moved to a different host
despite cost and hassle. No more bullsh-t. Criminal complaints will be
prepared and filed against Amanda Wright, Lynn Massey, and the equally
criminal bastards in the Wells Fargo corporate management suite for
egregious deceptive trade practices.

Email notification of local businesses of these practices, has and will,
continue unabated until Wells Fargo accepts responsibility, ceases these
practices, and finally makes it right. During the last several weeks
after the ftp servers were hacked, a blizzard of these emails was sent to
local businesses to keep intense pressure on the criminal bastards at
Wells Fargo. Copies of these emails were sent to bank officials. They
have been posted in this publication. ... We're already up to Salvo 74, --
and counting.

In addition, all new Newsletter Editions will feature an
available abbreviated version, smart phone friendly, that can be accessed
by clicking on the icon. Will supplement the regular format of this
publication. This is being done because so many of you access this
publication with smart phones and other devices with small screens.

This site has finally been fully uploaded. All links appear to be
properly working. Typos in the rush to get material up have also been
corrected. There will be a few additional changes to be made as time
allows. Including, again, a smart phone-friendly abbreviated version of
each future Newsletter Edition starting with v434 that will be available
in addition to the regular edition.

Hopefully, now, I can finally get back to the business of this
publication, that is exposure of corrupt, abusive, inept, clueless
government lackeys beholden to their corporate masters, rather than
dealing with recalcitrant webhosts. We'll see. With the
libertyinperil.com domain, however, any necessary changes in webhosts will
be easy to make since all links won't have to be changed or deactivated.

The pressure on Wells Fargo will continue unabated. Should they further
interfere with operation of this publication, it will simply provide
additional fodder for criminal complaints to be filed against them.

On 9-22-15, Kingsland Wells Fargo Store Manager Amanda Wright forced
closure of two accounts because for nearly three years this writer has
publicly accused her, her predecessor Lynn Massey, and the Wells Fargo
corporate management suite of engaging in criminal deceptive trade
practices, as well as pressuring, unduly interfering and/or bribing
webhosts to take these websites down.

Apparently, they have successfully managed to unduly influence and/or
bribe the federal Consumer Financial 'Protection' Bureau and Texas
Attorney General Consumer Protection Division as well. Forget? The bank
is considered too big to fail. Considers itself government.

For all practical purposes, that's perversely true. They have money and
resources to buy not only their human chattel, but their bought and paid
for government lackeys. Be interesting to see whether or not the U.S.
Attorney is untouchable, or sadly, similarly capable of being bought.

Immediately after closure of these accounts, the three operational Liberty
In Peril FTP servers were hacked. What that means is that while all three
sites remained operational and accessible to readers, new material could
not be uploaded. This continues to date.

Worse, 'free' accounts on all three 'free' webhosts conveniently no longer
provide technical control panel support. Clearly, they don't want to know
there are problems. Have managed, however, to find other ways to contact
webhost management and have done precisely that.

Will take a criminal investigation to determine who hacked the sites,
however. Most likely, Wells Fargo had a hand in it. Certainly, have the
resources. Highly, unlikely the Llano County Sheriff's Office was
involved. Hard to believe they would be that stupid. The Bank, however,
has nothing to lose. Owns its government lackeys. The Sheriff and his
outrageously corrupt and abusive goons, however, can expect further
exposure in this publication. Should you have information regarding this
or any other issue, contact me. I will protect your identity.

The effort to expose Wells Fargo egregious deceptive trade practices continues. Several years ago to determinedly apply renewed pressure on our truly worthless, egregiously self-serving Texas Attorney General, now Governor, an excoriating email was sent to the bastard. Copies of which were also passed on to both offending Wells Fargo officers. A copy was also sent to the Davis campaign and others at the time.

Voters did have a right to know as Attorney General, the GOP candidate for Governor apparently selectively investigated, or not, bona fide complaints filed by citizens against banks too big to fail. Possibly, Wells Fargo could have lined his pockets in some fashion. That has yet to be determined.

The bastard and his office, no matter what, failed to respond to the complaint originally snail mailed several years ago. This material, figuratively targeting Wells Fargo and the governor 'wannabe' now Governor, had been posted and can be found by scrolling all the way down and clicking on the links well below. ... Governor? Wells Fargo bribe you to look the other way?

Will continue to do all I can to publicly expose this to all, both in this publication and elsewhere. Have done precisely that with the following email sent to the Pastor, St. Peter's Lutheran Church. A copy of it was also sent to Wells Fargo officer Amanda Wright. She has, indeed, been promoted to branch manager. Reverse Darwinism. Survival of the unfittest.

This young woman has indeed been rewarded by the Wells Fargo corporate management suite for engaging in criminal deceptive trade practices and her undying loyalty to her corporate masters. The process to update those already informed of this fiasco has finally been completed. This latest material can be found by clicking onWells Fargo Deceptive Trade Practices Salvo 133, 12-23-16 .

The name of this publication was changed some ten years ago from The Llano Ledger to Liberty In Peril. The reason? Simple. Cowardly failure of this community to stand up to tyranny that has only exponentially worsened the last decade. Clearly, demonstrated as well by the cowardly failure of businesses to financially support this publication. Either through advertising or other financial support. Too afraid doing so would enrage the bastards who run and own this hellhole County.

-- Despite the fact these businesses were, and are, being egregiously f--ked by these very same bastards. Tough, isn't it? Impossible to entertain any sympathy for cowardice, however. Especially in view of the fact this writer has placed himself in great jeopardy taking on these corrupt, abusive, inept criminal bastards. Alone.

Exactly, why you see no investigative material highly critical of these sons of bitches in other local rags. Sadly, cowardly, all advertising income immediately dries up. Consequently, the bastards continue their criminal chicanery with impunity. On a rampage. Thus, you get what you truly deserve. Always. Precisely, why this earlier name change to Liberty In Peril remains appropriate. -- Despite the fact this writer has not yet left the area. Ten years after originally intending to do so. Thirty years in this goddamned godforsaken hellhole.

This writer, then and now, remains primarily interested in state, federal, and international issues. Another reason for this publication name change. Despite the fact I stupidly cluelessly remain here, local issues must be addressed. Can't be ignored. That's where you come in dear readers. Have the courage to inform this writer of local abuse, corruption, ineptness you are aware of, have personally experienced.

... Information these criminal bastards do all they can to conceal, cover up. Otherwise, how can they effectively sustain the charade and intended result? Loot confiscation through a boot heel on the throat of the citizenry.

The only way, short of an unwanted dreaded second American revolution, to force badly-needed change is to expose all this to the light of day. These bastards are beginning to understand they have a problem. No question, the growing rage of those they've abused, looted, egregiously f--ked. It's time to stand up. Expose this corruption to glaring sunlight. Otherwise, as fools, cowards, you will remain under their thumb. From the loftiest business owner to those on the bottom of the food chain. Wake up. Grow a pair.

Still don't think that likely to happen. After all, you're bought and paid for. Owned. Not only by your government masters, but their masters. The corporate management suite. Your employers. Think not? Wake up. You're human chattel. Corporate-owned, bought and paid for. Precisely, why you cowardly, compliantly literally bare your asses for corporate inspection by the company doctor. Willingly, compliantly, cowardly piss in a cup under employer supervision. To sit in front of a keyboard or stock shelves all day. You have no control of your lives. You're owned. Forget? For a measly salary, no job security, reduced to no benefits. At a time of record corporate profits and cash reserves.

Then, you gallingly complain about the oppression as you tolerate egregious theft of your labor. Not only by your corporate masters, but their bought and paid for government lackeys. Too cowardly to stand up, allow disclosure of your identity when you rightfully complain to this publication of being mercilessly f--ked. Some of you falsely arrested, criminally assaulted, bogusly fined for 'offenses' you did not commit. To line County coffers. Keep the peasants in line and under control. A fascist police-state. Nazi America.

Again, yet another reason why this publication is called Liberty In Peril. Most galling? Nothing changes if you fail to step up and challenge corrupt, abusive, inept authority. Too afraid, cowardly compliant to let the bastards know who you are. Did it ever occur to the cowards out there if the identity of the accuser is kept under wraps the bastards will falsely claim it's all made up by this publication? Thus, conveniently killing all credibility. Wake up.

Cowardice is unbecoming, unworthy of our formerly great country. Insult to injury? There are the hopelessly deranged who believe the chicanery reported here to be manufactured anyway. No matter the effort. No matter the research. No matter the proof. Wake up. This writer cannot do it alone. Snowball's chance in hell. Then again, cowardice, delusion is always amply, justly rewarded. Always. You continue to 'enjoy' the very best government money can buy. Literally.

Cannot do it alone. Impossible. Not sustainable. This publication needs your financial and material support. Both. Time to step up.

Click herefor a most interesting conversation between JP2 Linda Ballard and LCRA Communications Supervisor Mitch Hibbs who at the time was investigating a complaint made by the Henderson family against the 'judge.' The recording had been made by Hibbs and provided by Phyllis Henderson who had gotten it through an open records request. During the course of the recording you will hear the 'judge' make a terroristic threat against the Henderson family which the investigator laughingly shrugged off as a joke.

Seems former LCRA Ranger Lance Bilski, stepson of Llano County Sheriff Bill Blackburn, had been harassing the Henderson family regarding their tire business, Henderson Tire. Worse? There are unsubstantiated allegations, that although very much attached, Bilski may have indeed engaged in improprieties, that is, egregiously unprofessional conduct relevant to the Henderson complaint. All this had been covered in Newsletter Text V346.

Publication of this material, however, should in no way be interpreted as endorsement of Ballard's opponent, Steve Lange, in the upcoming runoff. It is not. It is provided as a public service to expose the 'judge' for exactly whom and what she is.
