So Henry, why don’t you take us forward a little bit? Chris 'Henri' Henrikson So we've recently seen the suspension of Bernie Sanders came in for President, as well as yesterday, when it was announced that Bernie had in fact endorsed Joe Biden for President. Bob, what is stuck out about you, excuse me stuck out to you about Sanders campaign. What do you think should be the next move of people who support him? And lastly, deep what path Do you see to a viable third party in the US political system? Robert "Bob" Scheer You know, I I'm very disappointed in what Sanders did because he didn't even wait to see what the platform would be. He didn't even wait to see who the vice presidential pick would be. And he knows of Biden's role in creating the the tragic domestic forget about foreign policy because he's got a lot of problems there. But but the whole banking meltdown, the whole foreclosure crisis, the Great Recession, Biden's fingerprints are all over. And, and he's not alone. Obviously, Bill Clinton, and then brock obama's bailout made the banks whole and didn't even do what Trump is doing now, which is increase unemployment insurance.

  • The NFL, the Military, and the Hijacking of Pat Tillman
    The NFL, the Military, and the Hijacking of Pat Tillman’s Story Ryan Devereaux, September 28 2017, 6:31 a.m. h"ps://theintercept.com/2017/09/28/pat-8llman-nfl-protest-death-army-disgrace/ As part of his ongoing crusade targeting black athletes, President Donald Trump shared a tweet Monday morning from one of his supporters. It included an image of Pat Tillman, the former NFL safety-turned-U.S. Army Ranger who was killed in Afghanistan in the spring of 2004. “NFL player PatTillman joined U.S. Army in 2002. He was killed in action 2004. He fought 4 our country/freedom. #StandForOurAnthem #BoycottNFL,” wrote @jayMAGA45. The intent of the president’s retweet was clear: Trump was co-signing a suggestion that Tillman was a true patriot, unlike those who have chosen to kneel during the national anthem, and that those protests dishonor his legacy. It’s easy to understand why Tillman would make an attractive figure to Trump and his base. His Army photo reflects an image of a certain type of all-American hero: chiseled jaw, broad shoulders, white skin. But simply looking at Tillman’s photo and the superficial facts of his tale is to miss everything important about his life, his death, and what came after. Tillman’s is indeed an all-American story, it’s just not the kind that Trump and his supporters want it to be. Few episodes of the post-9/11 era have called down more disgrace upon the military than its handling of Tillman’s death and its treatment of his family in their search for answers.

VOLUME 9 NO. 24 SIERRA MADRE POLICE SATURDAY, JUNE 13, 2015 APPREHEND WANTED SEXUAL THE TOWN COMES OUT TO BALANCE THE BUDGET PREDATOR Sierra Madre police arrested a man Wednesday morning wanted in Pasadena for sexual battery after a number of residents recognized his picture from news reports that day. Emilio Buch, a known homeless man, was walking down Sierra Madre Boulevard around 8:20 a.m. when Police Sergeant Kenneth Berry said he was flagged down by a resident who saw Buch near Baldwin Avenue. According to reports, Berry also said he had gotten a call from another resident who saw a man matching Buch’s description. Buch was arrested, sitting on a bench, without incident. Pasadena Police say Buch was wanted in connection with an alleged sexual battery on June 6. Police said a homeless woman woke up partially unclothed around 2:50 a.m. She was startled to find Buch asleep behind her with his hand on her inner thigh. Buch fled and was chased by the woman’s boyfriend although he got away. He is being held in Pasadena jail on $100,000 bail.
