Judge denies latest Trump attempt to keep 6 January records secret
According to internal Pentagon data, as of September 2008, three Navy and four Air Force personnel were deployed in Taiwan.

Two sources say that during the Bush and Obama-era, these troops "mostly" trained their Taiwanese counterparts to use American-made weapons, and their deployments expanded under Donald Trump and Joe Biden to include Special Forces and Marines in a bid to “harden” Taiwan and prepare it for a possible Chinese marine invasion.

🤨 A professor at Arizona State University is calling for an end to "White supremacy language," and to do away with the common way of grading papers in favor of labor-based grading that will redistribute "power."

"White language supremacy in writing classrooms is due to the uneven and diverse linguistic legacies that everyone inherits, and the racialized white discourses that are used as standards, which give privilege to those students who embody those habits of white language already," Asao Inoue, professor of rhetoric and composition at Arizona State University, said during an online discussion last Thursday.

The Unselect Committee of politically ambitious hacks continues to subpoena people wanting to know about those protesting, on January 6th, the insurrection which took place during the Presidential Election of November 3rd. There is so much proof, but the Fake News Media refuses to print it or show it in any way, shape, or form. Just read the findings of the Arizona report, or look at what’s happening in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and numerous other States. That’s right, the Committee is studying the PROTEST when it should be studying the Fraudulent Election that led to the protest. As the LameStream Media knows, the facts are there for all to see!
😡 😮 Seattle Parks and Recreation promoted and cohosted an event at Discovery Park that’s open to all — except white people. Yet again, the city is embracing a segregationist culture in the name of inclusion.

The “interactive beach walk” at Discovery Park coincides with Seattle Forest Week. The event was in partnership with Sea Potential, an environmental nonprofit that seeks to connect area-youth of color with the sea through “healing activities and ocean justice conversations.”

Though the City of Seattle prohibits discrimination, this event was only “open to anyone who identifies as BIPOC.” It’s also not the first time Seattle Parks has greenlit discriminatory events.
🤭 TIME Magazine irked readers Tuesday after the outlet appeared to blame American consumers for the country's current supply chain crisis that has resulted in depleted store shelves.

"How American shoppers broke the supply chain," TIME tweeted with a link to its report.

The outlet in part blamed the coronavirus pandemic for the backlog, but added the supply chain is also broken "because of the sheer volume of stuff that Americans are buying, especially online."

🗣 During an interview with ex-State Dept spokesman Morgan Ortagus on Tuesday, Adam Schiff shared his view on the situation with the Steele dossier:

"It's one thing to say allegations should be investigated, and they were. It's another to say that we should have foreseen in advance that some people were lying to Christopher Steele".

And just as Chuck Schumer did in January, Schiff mentioned Donald Trump "inciting an erection" 👀

Hillary Clinton = Oscar the Grouch? 👀
😳 Former NY Governor Andrew Cuomo joked about anal sex and AIDs as well as gossiped about the Kennedy brothers, according to an upcoming book by his former press secretary, Karen Hinton.

📌 The book claims that Cuomo was invited to the White House along with others to advise Bill Clinton on his scandal with Monica Lewinsky.

"I think we can probably defend oral sex", the book says. "'But I have to draw the line' — here he paused for effect — 'at presidential a** f*cking'", Hinton writes, purportedly quoting Cuomo.

📌 The woman also claimed that Cuomo spread rumours about the two Kennedy brothers.

"The two of them are f*cking the same woman. She likes to get f*cked in the ass and some days she goes from one Kennedy house to the other to get it twice in one day", he reportedly said.

The ex-governor's representative, Rich Azzopardi, has denounced the book and its claims, accusing Hinton of rewriting history and “chasing headlines” to sell it.

🤔 California's Board of Parole Hearings have for the fifth time recommended that Leslie Van Houten – a Charles Manson follower – should be released from prison, where she is serving a life sentence.

The woman, who is now 72, was a 19-year-old when she joined the murderous cult.

She helped members of the Manson Family in the assassination of Leno LaBianca and his wife, Rosemary, back in 1969. The double murder happened just a day after the cult's most notorious massacre, when Manson followers killed pregnant actress Sharon Tate and four others.

Gavin Newsom, who has been governor of California since 2019, and his predecessor Jerry Brown, both vetoed Van Houten's release.
