WHAT IS LABOR DAY?
Observed the first Monday in September, Labor Day is an annual celebration of the social and economic achievements of American workers. The holiday is rooted in the late nineteenth century, when labor activists pushed for a federal holiday to recognize the many contributions workers have made to America’s strength, prosperity, and well-being.
*PUBLIC SERVICE – URGENT APPEAL TO READ THIS
TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE UPCOMING IMPORTANT ELECTION(S) THAT AREN’T ALWAYS BEING ACCURATELY COVERED, OR COVERED AT ALL BY MEDIA*
(In fact, a Democrat friend asked me today to help him better understand what’s going on since he knew he wasn’t getting the true story from Youtube, where he gets his news. )
☀ This is a public service for anyone interested . Set yourself and our dear United States up for success!
We’ve been following the election run up pretty closely. We always try to keep an open mind just like a lot of my mentors did – REAL journalists like like Walter Cronkite , Tim Russert and even my high school journalism teacher, who always insisted that I report equally on both sides of news stories. (She would even get very upset if I didn’t interview people from both sides of issues-and she was correct.)
We watch , read and listen to just about everything I can get my hands or eyes on and I’ve been pretty troubled lately to see a lot of one-sided reporting like I’ve never seen before. I’m certainly not going to tell you who to vote for but I will just suggest you keep an open mind and consider the sources and not just the same one or two.
I believe that we’re living in a very dangerous time during which many people are unaware by not taking the time to dig deep and search out the real news or because they are listening to only one or two sources. And, I totally understand because until the last 5 or 10 years I never took the time to really investigate what we were reading and learning on the news. Or was too busy with other things and didn’t really care. Many today are getting their news through social media like tick tock which is anything but balanced reporting. But now is the time to care. We’re living In a nuclear age for the first time – the first time when Our Lives can be snuffed out in minutes with little or no warning.
Trump adds former Democrats RFK Jr and Tulsi Gabbard to transition team
Never before in my life have I seen our Administration turn against our number one Ally in the world, Israel, after suffering their own ‘9-11.’ This has resulted in a year-long war in the mid East like nothing since World War II.
We’ve seen a seemingly never-ending war in Russia – Ukraine . It probably would have never started in the first place with stronger leadership. Then, an assassination attempt that was totally botched by an inept Secret Service that only got lucky because Trump turned his head, the details of which have still not fully been reported or ignored by mainstream media and slow-walking investigators. None of the guilty were even fired , only a handful put on paid-leave.
I am an independent, neither a Democrat nor Republican but more of a ‘ no labels’ kind of person- I always looked up to to former Democrat Joe Lieberman , who started ‘No Labels,’ but, sadly, passed away recently. May the truth be told, regardless of party. Source your information, double check and triple check in this era of opinion news and ‘fake news’ (over 70% no longer trust the news, according to a Harvard study , below)
MEDIA AND GOVERNMENT ONE BIG INCESTUOUS FAMILY –
‘Journalists and politicians have become ensnared in a symbiotic web of lies that misleads the public.’ (Peter Vanderwicken, Harvard Business Review) – Some of these connections are dated but they set up what we have today – and non wonder ratings don’t matter to them
and
‘Much of what appears in the press as business news is corporate propaganda.’ continues VANDERWICKEN
Last Friday, RFK Jr held an significant press conference during which I learned a lot from and you may, too, below
TRANSCRIPT of Robert F Kennedy Jr speech 8-23-24:
(Please note below transcription was done electrically and there are some points that were not transcribed correctly. We tried to fix them as best we could).
“Democracy today is a little more than a slogan for at least one of the political parties to throw me and other candidates off the ballot and try to throw president Trump in jail . It ran a sham primary that was rigged to prevent any serious challenge . The same shadowy DNC operatives appointed his successor (Kamala Harris) – also without an election- they install the candidate who was so unpopular voters that she dropped out in 2020 without winning a single delegate.
“My uncle and my father both relished debate, ‘ continued RFK Jr in a 35-minute press conference by independent candidate Robert F Kennedy Jr in Phoenix outlining the current state of affairs, as in these excerpts:
“President Trump, who actually was nominated and won an election, also does interviews daily. How did the Democratic party choose a candidate (Kamala Harris) who has never done an interview or debate during the entire election cycle. We know the answers . They did it by weaponizing the government agencies . The Democratic Party… has kept me and others from free expression and that’s the very right upon which all of our other constitutional rights rest. Vladimir Putin’s 88% landslide in Russian elections observing that Putin and his party controlled the Russian press and that is serious opponents from appearing on the ballot. For year in America the DNC also prevented opponents from appearing on the ballot and our television networks expose themselves over the course of more than a year in a campaign where my poll numbers reached at times in the high 20s. On Fox I gave 34 interviews ; in contrast, during the 16 months since I declared ABC NBC CBS MSNBC and CNN combined gave only two live interviews for me. The Democratic Party… has kept me and others from free expression and that’s the very right upon which all of our other constitutional rights rest. I’ll just take a moment to ask you to consider the many ways do you have a free press to safeguard democracy’.
ASSASINATION ATTEMPT Being Swept Under Rug?
Secret Service problem was not being fixed- 3 Problems:
1) technology -they rely on yesterday’s technology tomorrow
- they thought they could do more with last but they did less with more
3 they should not be doing criminal investigations which takes away from their real mission of security
Was Thomas Crooks the Lee Harvey Oswald of 2024 without the results ? Who was he working for with all his foreign connections? The $3 billion dollar Secret Service Agency was outsmarted by this 20 year old kid with little resources. Nothing has changed at the FBI, nobody has been fired and they’re supposed investigation is being slow walked and Congress is not doing anything other than a small group of Republicans headed by Chip Roy, Matt Gaetz , Andy Biggs, etc A successful assassination could happen soon without more being done and now! IS THIS INCOMPETENCE OR INTENT?

MUSIC- BAD RECORDS: WORST EVER TOP 40 Song? And Oakland’s Answer to Sam Cooke Record
Worst Top 40 Record from the ‘Golden Era’ ? And Oakland’s Answer to Sam Cooke
Very few records from the 60s and 50s and even the 70s and 80s we do not care for but there is one that not only we don’t like but have no idea why anybody else would like it . It’s just a repetitive mess with virtually no melody or distinguishable lyrics and there is no redeeming value-You probably heard it as it was a 1 No. 17 Billboard hit in 1963, normally a good year for music, and it’s called El Watusi by Ray Barretto. click here to HEAR it – Also, Oakland’s answer to Sam Cooke record
