Steve Kornacki with Amazing Hardball Editorial from February 27, 2019 Explains Donald Trump to the Befuddled.

Kept waiting for the Hardball February 27, 2019 episode so I could view Steven Kornacki's editorial close. Was unable to find just the Editorial only but I did manage to get a Transcript of it. Kornacki's Editorial explains Trump and his supporters exceedingly well. Kornacki only said his name at the very beginning of the Hardball episode, then. never said it again. I had never seen him before and didn't know who he was. Incredible how protective Chris Matthew's people are over not allowing a guest to even say his name or have it flashed on the screen. Best Educational and informative Editorial goes to Steve Kornacki while filling in on Hardball on the February 27, 2019 episode.

.......Welcome back. 

The scene the whole world

40:49

witnessed in front of the House

40:50

Oversight Committee today would have

40:52

rocked any other presidency to its core

40:55

Michael Cohen called Donald Trump a

40:58

criminal a fraud and a racist and

41:00

suggested federal prosecutors may be

41:02

putting a case together from a legal

41:04

standpoint there are obvious open

41:07

questions here we will see what special

41:09

counsel Robert Muller does or doesn't do

41:11

we will see what if anything emerges

41:14

from federal prosecutors in New York

41:16

maybe even from the New York State

41:17

Attorney General action on any of these

41:19

fronts could dramatically change Trump's

41:22

presidency but when it comes to the

41:25

politics it is still far from clear what

41:27

effect if any a day like today will have

41:30

the charges from Cohen were absolutely

41:32

explosive no question but were they

41:35

actually surprising this is one of the

41:38

things that makes the Trump presidency

41:39

so different from those that came before

41:41

it most voters including many of trumps

41:44

own supporters already believe that

41:47

Donald Trump had exceptionally low

41:49

character even before he became

41:51

president in the 2016 exit poll just 33

41:54

percent of voters said they considered

41:55

Trump honest one in three of his own

41:58

voters considered him dishonest only 35%

42:01

said he had the temperament to be

42:03

President just 38 percent said he was

42:05

even qualified for the office in polling

42:08

before the election only one-third of

42:10

Trump's vote of voters said that Trump

42:12

shared their values 59% said they agreed

42:15

that quote Trump talks in a way that

42:17

appeals to bigotry 44% said they

42:20

considered him an out-and-out racist

42:22

remember the Access Hollywood tape

42:24

Trump's comments about what he could get

42:26

away with because he was famous that

42:28

tape played for the whole world to hear

42:29

just weeks before the election and yet

42:31

here we are by the slimmest of margins

42:34

and with huge numbers of Americans

42:36

convinced he was a lousy person Donald

42:38

Trump was still elected president and

42:40

while there is no evidence he has gained

42:42

any support since becoming president his

42:44

numbers have been pretty stable an

42:46

approval rating that never really falls

42:48

lower than somewhere in the high 30s

42:49

never really gets hire than the mid 40s

42:51

just like his support in the polls

42:53

during the campaign so yes the kinds of

42:56

things we heard today would probably

42:57

have been ruinous for

42:59

past-president but what was shocking in

43:02

the past may almost be expected in the

43:06

Trump era that's hardball for now

Cortez hits it out of the Park in her Demeanor, Follow up, and Focus during Michael Cohen's 2019 Congressional Hearing.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was brilliant throughout her entire five minute Screed.  Her focus on "if not you, then who", was refreshing. Her follow ups to prior comments from before the break were powerful. I can tell Cortez knows how to use a phone, and that talent lent itself well during her five minutes questioning Michael Cortez.

Summing up the Morning Session of the Michael Cohen Congressional Testimony.

Here's what we know and may have learned regarding Michael Cohen's February 27, 2018 Testimony. 

Donald Trump will stop at nothing to win, even if it means lying, cheating, bribing, deceiving, or publicly posturing being victorious no matter what actually happened.  Democrats see themselves as the good guys trying to save the World from Trump, by opposing everything Trump stands for and condemning his behavior. Democrats think they have right on their side, what they have are policies that invite the youth vote, at all costs to Baby Boomers and the Elderly.

Meanwhile Trump is in Viet Nam, probably watching the Michael Cohen Congressional Hearings at 1 am in the morning rather than prepping for his talks with Kim Jong Un.

Gasp.

How Donald Trump could blow Everyone's Mind.

Donald Trump could blow everyone's mind if he asked for an Investigation into Fox Televisions Contracting practices. There appears to be an obscenely wide chasm between what African American Actors and Caucasian Actors are paid on Fox Television. 

Even when ratings favor the African American Show, and the show is twice as long, as in sixty minutes versus thirty minutes, the Caucasian Actor will get paid significantly more for a lower rated, 1/2 hour show than the African American Actors will get paid for their hour long show that also has higher ratings.

I'm not talking 10% or 20% more, I am talking a few hundred percent higher. A recent example would be the cast of Empire, Fox's highest rated Show for several years until it was bumped to second highest rated this past season, versus a show like Anger Management that was also on Fox, which was only half an hour long, and starred Drug and Prostitute compromised Actor Charlie Sheen.

When Sheen is on, he seems to have keen awareness of both sides of most issues, and Sheen's acting for both 2 and 1/2 Men and Anger Management seems to reflect an awareness of both sides of an issue. I'm ok with Sheen being number one. The problem is African Americans are so much farther down the contract scale one has to wonder if some of their contract goes to pay Sheen's contract.

It appears that Jussie Smollett made less money over the first 54 one hour shows covering three seasons of Fox's Number one rated Empire, as a co star, than Sheen made for ONE half an hour episode of Anger Management. The pay disparity was so great it most likely played a hand in Smollett's alleged recent actions regarding reporting a hate crime.

Fox may be tap dancing into the area of Financial Abuse in the case of Smollett, and President Trump could really make a name for himself if he ordered an investigation into why there was and is such a financial disparity between Caucasian Actors on Fox television shows versus Minority and Women Actors on Fox television shows.

There may be obvious demographic reasons why a Caucasian Male Actor might make the Most money, but left unchecked, it appears the disparity between ethnicities, women and caucasian men has reached incomprehensible levels on Fox.

Why Jussie Smollett is Innocent in my Eyes.

Jussie Smollett was apparently being paid peanuts for his recurring role on Empire. According to a Newsweek article from October, 2016, Smollett was being paid 20,000 dollars per episode, which sounds like a lot, but for having a recurring role in one of the most Popular Prime Time Fox shows, it's actually Peanuts. 

In my opinion, if Smollett's Character is recurring, he should be making at least 50,000 per episode, not 20,000. Lead Actor's salaries range from 100,000 to 800,000 per episode, so 40,000 to 50,000 per episode for a recurring co-star role seems reasonable.

Charlie Sheen got more money in one episode of Two and a Half Men during his final season than Smollett's has been paid over the first three years worth of Empire Episodes. If Sheen's 1.8 million per episode is not the epitome of Racism in Hollywood, than lets all be grateful that Sheen never Drank, Smoke, did Drugs or hooked up with Prostitutes and possibly gave some Women HIV, and made more money in one episode than Smollett has made over the first three years of Empire.

and, we should all be grateful that after Sheen was run off of Two and a Half Men for his Drinking, Smoking, Drugging and possibly giving women Aids, he was NEVER offered another show nor crazy money ever again. (this is snark)

1. Charlie Sheen: The Two and a Half Men alum was the highest paid actor in television during his reign. He earned $1.8 million per episode in the show's final season and then took home $2 million per episode of Anger Management after it passed its 100th episode.

If Mr. Smollett was being paid just 20,000 per episode (that's TWO LESS Zeros than Sheen got from the SAME NETWORK that Smollett's show runs on. After being fired from 2 and 1/2 Men Fox then hired Sheen for Anger Management). 

After taxes, agents fees and other associated expenses with being a celebrity, not to mention higher costs for clothing, grooming, and where he lives, perhaps even security detail for public visitation, Chicago area taxes, Smollett's take home pay per year might not have been more than 150,000 to 200,000 TOTAL, a ridiculously low figure for any performer who manages to get a recurring role in any Prime Time TV Show that has at least 20 episodes per year.

While it appears that Smollette got raises at some point, because the original contract was for such a low amount per episode, a rather nominal raise will look like a very large raise in terms of percentage.

What is being perceived as selfish, "how could you do that behavior" is really defiance towards a Hollywood system that year after year purports to try and level the Diversity playing Field while still discriminating and dragging its feet, rewarding White Actors who behave very badly while financially punishing an African American Actor for finally lashing out after years of financial abuse from the same Network that paid Sheen 2 million per episode.

Yes, it matters that Smollett was obscenely underpaid, it matters greatly. Smollette wanted to be paid more for his work and when no one took him seriously, he didn't give up. 

I bet EVERYONE being Interviewed who is ridiculing or judging what Smollett allegedly did, makes more money per year than Smollett does, and for that reason, and that reason alone, they should either shut up, or acknowledge that he was underpaid and was being taken advantage of by the same system that Paid Charlie Sheen more money for one episode of Anger Management than Smollette's total Salary over his first three seasons of Empire. 

Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. I can't fathom this, it's beyond comprehension to me. People, learn Simple Math, please.

My Letter to Xavier Becerra and Mr. Lee Sherman regarding Declaratory and Injunctive Relief from the Border Wall Emergency Funding.

Dear Mr. Lee Sherman, Please forward an exact copy of this entire email message and photos to the Defense Team and the Presiding Judge along with the photos of my Mother so you all can see a face on the California Senior Genocide that continues because there is no Border Wall for California and Healthcare Funds are diluted as a direct result.

As a California resident, I object to the filing of the

STATE OF CALIFORNIA; STATE OF COLORADO; STATE OF CONNECTICUT; STATE OF DELAWARE; STATE OF HAWAII; STATE OF ILLINOIS; STATE OF MAINE; STATE OF MARYLAND; ATTORNEY GENERAL DANA NESSEL ON BEHALF OF THE PEOPLE OF MICHIGAN; STATE OF MINNESOTA; STATE OF NEVADA; STATE OF NEW JERSEY; STATE OF NEW MEXICO; STATE OF NEW YORK; STATE OF OREGON;andCOMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA;

Plaintiffs,

v.

DONALD J. TRUMP,in his official capacity as President of the United States of America;UNITED STATES OF AMERICA; U.S.

1COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF

500,000 undocumented crossings into California on an annual basis have diluted Healthcare Coverage for the Elderly in California and are also a direct cause of overcrowded Classrooms in both Los Angeles and Oakland County.

On March. 10, 2018 I personally witnessed multiple and repetitve EMTALA violations at West Hills Hospitals in West Hills, California. An ER Nurse refused to document, examine, or render aid to my Mother when she started wheezing while on her ER bed in her ER room. The ER Nurse’s defiance went so far as to call a False Code Gray on me after I requested to speak to the Head Nurse. The ER Nurse brought in a ringer instead who stated we were refusing to leave and preventing other patients from being seen. I decided to document the ERs refusal to document my Mothers onset of pneumonia and for that action a Code Grahy was called on me, I was assaulted and my video was erased. We were then against our will dumped in the rain outside of the ER. My Mother died 2 and 1/2 days later at home and I have PTSD over what I saw happen. The ER Nurse's brazenly illegal actions were no doubt fueled by a filled to capacity waiting room and the knowledge that all she had to do to get out of any unlawful situation she was creating was to call a False Code Gray via the ER Intercom.

I will give testimony as to the many ways California is shorting its seniors when it comes to MediCAL benefits and IHSS. And when Teachers in both Los Angeles and now Oakland demand smaller classrooms, they are really demanding a Wall but are too afraid to say it. You should know better, you should do better. 

EMTALA violations are not enforced in California or my Mother would still be alive today. Mayor Garcetti added 1 million more police on the street hours in 2018, not one hour of it was EMTALA related. I was rebuffed by the local police, the FBI, the Department of Justice and DHHS in California when I asked for an Investigation regarding my Mother’s death. We need the Wall, not 500,000 illegal border crossing every year that are causing a dilution of healthcare, especially among seniors.

California Politicians are floating the nonsensical mathematical theory that because Border Crossings are “down”. a Border Wall is not necessary. Illegal Border Crossings are ongoing and create residual healthcare Dilution effects and increasing Student Classroom sizes with each passing year. 

There are ZERO free legal aid facilities for IHSS in the San Fernando Valley, yet there are as many as SIX free legal aid IHSS facilities in Los Angeles City for Seniors and IHSS. LA City Free Legal Aid zip code discriminates against San Fernando Valley Seniors. Clearly a bias against Seniors who are more likely to be citizens of California and have been here for a long time presently exists in favor inner city residents. I consider the siphoning and diluting of MedICAL IHSS benefits for Seniors in California along the lines of Senior Genocide, meanwhile you IMMEDIATELY filed a lawsuit without even asking for Public Input, Can your office be more arrogant?

Please forward my comments to the Judge who will be residing over your sham lies and misdirection regarding California not needing a Border Wall. My Mother is dead because you don’t enforce EMTALA and refuse to do so. My mother’s death allows California to do what it does best, redirect money from Seniors who die prematurely from diluted Healthcare to other parts of the Budget.

Your Cato Institute citations lack merit. You cite statistics that back up Donald Trump’s position that Illegal Immigrants are arrested at 3 to 4 times higher rates than legal immigrants. You were in such a hurry to file a lawsuit that you did not even check your statistics closely, nor did you ask for any public feedback or input. Mr. Xavier Becerra sure likes to get on Television and then brag about it on his Twitter Account, so sad.

Donald Trump's 2019 State of the Union Speech Nails why a Border Wall is Essential in one easy to understand Sentence.

I would testify that the death of my own Mother was directly caused by the dilution of California Healthcare Resources because we don't have a Border Wall. My Mother's death involved Repetitive, Brazen lawlessness by an ER Nurse when the ER Waiting room was filled to the brim. This ER Nurse remains above the law as no one will investigate the horror I witnessed over the elder abuse my Mother suffered at the hands of the Nurse, nor the subsequent death of my Mother that resulted.

Donald Trump's quote from the 2019 State of the Union Address ... "Meanwhile, working-class Americans are left to pay the price for mass illegal immigration ... overburdened schools, hospitals that are so crowded you can’t get in ... and a depleted social safety net.” 

-Donald Trump 2019 State of the Union Speech

Since Trump gave his 2019 State of the Union Speech, he continues to only discuss Gangs and War as it relates to the Border Wall Emergency and seems to have forgotten that those already in the U.S. are suffering because of a depleted social safety net. Maybe someone can show President Trump his 2019 State of the Union Speech where he clearly states lack of a Border Wall has led to a depleted social safety net, especially in California. 

Los Angeles School Teachers had a January 2019 Strike because of over crowded classrooms, now Oakland School Teachers are striking because of over crowded classrooms. This is the result of a depleted social safety net that is being ransacked to the tune of 500,000 newly undocumented in California on an annual basis.

Meet the Press and Face the Nation use Border Crossing Numbers to create False Narratives, aka Fake Math.

The comment heard this past Sunday on Meet the Press and Face the Nation regarding the Border Wall was..."Undocumented Crossings are at an historic low", therefore the Wall is not an Emergency". I find this use of false math by the Main Stream Media insufferable, and wildly obtuse. 

Imagine you were boarding an Airplane and there were 20 seats left to fill. Despite the empty seats, The Captain makes an announcement that due to weight factors the plane cannot take on anymore passengers. Someone complains that this is patently unfair, that the remaining 20 passengers each have less than half the weight of any passenger that has already boarded, and therefore the remaining 20 seats should be filled because its the right thing to do. 

Does that type of Math make sense, because the argument that a lower number of undocumented Border Crossings somehow means there is no longer a Border Crossing emergency is just as ludicrous. Even as the Fake Number Media was chortling about lower Undocumented Annual Immigrant Numbers, Oakland area school teachers are DEMANDING smaller classroom sizes, just as LA Striking Teachers did a month earlier. 

On any other planet a correlation would be made between 1/2 million undocumented Border Crossings into California on an Annual Basis as being a contributing reason to oversized Classrooms both in Oakland and Los Angeles.  On any other planet consensus would build that California Healthcare is being compromised because 500,000 undocumented are arriving in California year after year and its now taking its toll.

Unfortunately, Trump isn't following his own words from his 2019 State of the Union speech when declaring why a National Emergency is justified regarding a Border Wall....Here is Trump's 2019 State of the Union sentence  that RINGS TRUE and is REASON ENOUGH to declare a National Emergency...

"Meanwhile, working-class Americans are left to pay the price for mass illegal immigration..... overburdened schools, hospitals that are so crowded you can’t get in.....and a depleted social safety net.”  

 -Donald Trump 2019 State of the Union

Trump has become so Hero Driven he seems to have forgotten the every day man and woman even when it serves and justifies building the Border Wall. Nonetheless, Trump said it in his State of the Union Address, a depleted social safety net caused by yearly undocumented Border Crossings into California and beyond.

"But, but, there were even less Border Crossings in 2018 into California, so the problem went away, right?" Yes, my Mother did go away, to her death in 2018 because an ER Nurse demanded we leave the ER without my Mother's pneumonia being recorded, treated, or dosed during the Flu Season of 2018 because the ER was over crowded. 

My mother would die two days later at home and the Police won't investigate the REPETITIVE EMTALA and other violations initiated by the ER Nurse, because California has a Depleted Social Safety Net and nobody wants to look at how ripped up the California Social Safety Net really is. Besides, it would mean having to agree with Trump, and nobody in California would ever be willing to agree with anything Donald Trump says.

When Americans are Invited to Intervene in Eastern European Politics, we call it Consulting, when Russians are Invited to Consult in American Politics, we call it Collusion.

Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, Tad Devine; for several years all worked in the Ukraine and Eastern Europe as Paid Political Consultants. Afterwards, all came to work in the U.S. for different 2016 Presidential Candidates named Sanders and Trump.

Apparently Stone, Manafort and Devine were permitted by the FBI and CIA to work on Presidential Campaigns in 2016, but the moment they also interacted with their Eastern European contacts, all became "colluders".  This seems like a scam to me. If all three were already connected with Eastern European Politics, then their own experiences, plus the contacts they made in Eastern Europe are in play for Presidential Elections in the U.S.

Why did Eastern Europe allow Manafort, Stone, and Devine to collude in Eastern Europe? Why weren't Manafort, Stone, or Devine ever tried for collusion in Eastern Europe since they had American interests as well? What about the Eastern European Politicians the three worked for, were Stone's, Manafort's and Devine's Political contacts in Eastern Europe charged with Colluding with American Political Consultants?

It seems like the Meme we are all supposed to accept is that multiple Americans can be political consultants in Eastern Europe and we call it Political Consulting, but Eastern Europeans and apparently people from any other continent cannot be a Political Advisor to an American Political Consultant. Are we that fragile of a country that we fear experts from other countries offering their viewpoints to American Political Consultants regarding a U.S. Presidential Race?

What nobody wants to talk about is Donald Trump paid for Facebook dollar a day, Targeted, Political Micro Ads during the 2016 Presidential Elections, while Hillary Clinton scoffed at the idea and chose NOT to pay for Facebook, Targeted, Political Micro Ads. 

Unless actual vote totals were tampered with, there was no collusion, there was consulting. It will be somewhat amazing if the U.S. proves to allow less tolerance for Political Consulting from Eastern Europe into American Politics then the tolerance Eastern Europe has had for their own politicians who "consulted/colluded" with American Political Consultants in Eastern Europe and face no charges of collusion.

Some say Collusion, Some say Consulting, Unless actual vote totals were tampered with, when do we call the whole thing off?

Governor Newsom, Ralph Northam, the "Photo", and Hogan's Heroes.

DailyPUMA would like to point out the Hypocrisy of Newly Elected California Governor Gavin Newsome being "forgiven" for his affair with a Subordinate's Wife while he was Mayor of San Francisco, while Virginia Governor Ralph Northam is supposed to resign for wearing Blackface in the 80's. According to the wife of the Husband who had the affair with Mr. Newsome, Me Too does not apply because she consented to the affair and felt no pressure. All conveniently wrapped up in a bow because at the end of the day, it was just a Subordinate White Guy Husband who apparently has no standing or victimization, er, because he is after all from White Privilege and we all know that Whites have no Civil Rights to violate nor be victimized by the Actions of others, because um, their White! So Newsome gets to resume his career, the wife can't be blamed for the utter betrayal of her own marriage, and since White Guys are never victims, the husband can just shuck it up. 

Besides the ridiculous double standard that may be partially rooted as to whether the Alleged Victim is Black or White; and besides the supplanting of the Statute of Limitations; Another Disturbing aspect to the Demand that Virginia Governor Northam be removed from office one way or another is there have been no accusations that Mr. Northam has ever acted in a Racist Manner. Can't we at least connect the photo to some other actions that prove racial insensitivity?

The Image of two people, one in a KKK attire, the other in Black Face, reminds me of the 70's Television Show Hogan's Heroes.

Hogan's Heroes premise of a comedy about Prisoners in a German Prison of War Camp during World War II is utterly preposterous, yet the show somehow tap danced the line of comedy with the underlying tone that the War was bad and Prisoners defeating their German Captors was still in the Hearts and Minds of the Episodic Plots.

Perhaps the key to Hogan's Heroes success was the cartoonish  spoofing and characterizations of the German Officers and Hogan's obvious yet kept under wraps contempt for his German counterparts. 

Just as the German Captors tended to be one dimensional and mocked on Hogan's Heroes, isn't it possible that the picture of the BlackFace and KKK garb was mocking a prior time period, not as being funny, but as being obscenely wrong?

Photographically recreating a past wrong does not mean one is condoning it.

How do we not know if the TV show Hogans Heroes itself did not influence the Photo since the Photo was taken many years AFTER Hogan's Heroes had been on the air.

Show me more than a photo if the aim is to disregard, discredit, and change the memory, achievements and reputation of any person.
