  • Pizzagate / Pedogate, a No-Nonsense Fact-Filled Reader
    Pizzagate / Pedogate A No-nonsense Fact-filled reader Preface I therefore determine that serious human rights abuse and corruption around the world constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States, and I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat. —Trump Executive Order 13818, Dec. 20, 2017 Pizzagate means many things to many people, the angle of the lens may be different, but the focus zeros in on a common body of incontestable facts. The fruit of top researchers collected in this reader allows you to compare, correlate and derive a flexible synthesis to suit your needs. An era of wild contradiction is upon us in the press. The psychopathic rumblings that pass for political discourse bring the artform of infotainment to a golden blossoming. A bookstore display table featuring The Fixers; The Bottom-Feeders, Crooked Lawyers, Gossipmongers, and Porn Stars Who Created the 45th President versus Witch Hunt; The Story of the Greatest Mass Delusion in American Political History are both talking about the same man, someone who paid for his campaign out of his own pocket. There were no big donors from China and the traditional bank of puppeteers. This created a HUGE problem, one whose solution threatened the money holders and influence peddlers. New leadership and a presidential order that threw down the gauntlet, a state of emergency, seeded the storm clouds. The starting gun was fired, all systems were go, the race had begun. FISAs and covert operations sprang into action. The envelopes are being delivered, the career decisions are being made, should I move on or stay the course.

  • Countherhistory July 2013 AAUW-Illinois by Barbara Joan Zeitz
    CountHerhistory July 2013 AAUW-Illinois by Barbara Joan Zeitz GovernHers: Twenty-five states and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, have elected thirty-six women as governors of their state. The six of those states which have elected more than one woman governor, their cumulative fifteen women governors profiled below, are: Arizona 4, New Hampshire 3, Texas 2, Connecticut 2, Washington 2, and Kansas 2. Arizona tops the list, having elected four women governors. Rose Mofford, as Arizona’s first woman governor, returned stability to state politics after she was sworn into office in 1988 following the tumultuous impeachment of her predecessor, Evan Mecham. She did not run for reelection. Jane Dee Hull, Arizona’s second woman governor, completed the term of another male governor dishonorably removed from office when Governor Fife Symington was convicted of a felony and had to resign. Hull was sworn into office in 1997 by the first woman U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor, herself an Arizonian. Hull’s successful reelection in 1998 was historic because for the the first (and last) time in the 224-year history of the United States all five of the top elected executive offices in one state were held by women: Hull; Betsey Bayless, secretary of state; Janet Napolitano, attorney general; Carol Springer, treasurer; and Lisa Graham Keegan, Arizona Superintendent of Public Instruction. Limited to eight consecutive years in office, Hull was constitutionally barred from running for a second full term in 2002 and was succeeded by Janet Napolitano. Janet Napolitano was Arizona's third woman governor from 2003 to 2009.
