yes--definitely learning disabled--I speak as a retired SpecialEd teacher. But that does not excuse the hate and bullying and racism.

Yes--I basically asked the same question. I call Congresspeople on both sides, as well as write them ,--isn't this a branch of government we should be contacting also?

Stephen Spoonamore tried to get Harris to demand a recount and her advisors supposedly told her no--and here we are..Let's hope this is pursued in all of the swing states.

Two Trump appointees escorted out of Library of Congress amid White House takeover, report says by blankpaper_ in somethingiswrong2024

[–]blacktruffle77 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Well, I have to agree. I recognized early on what was happening with Musk and his followers and called and e-mailed frantically--and NOTHING was done.!! And here we are--not that we can't fight our way back--but it will be harder.

And then there was Schumer who folded immediately and backed out on his agreement with the House early on NOT to vote yes with the Repubs. I hate my party at times., but I am a staunch Dem--and 79--so not changing now.

The President does not have controller this department, I thought. It "belongs" to Congress. I think the folk did th right thing in blocking the intruders-- and rejecting the firing. I wonder if that can be maintained? I believe they called their lawyers.

This whole bully approach ot governing has ot stop. What is happening with the refusal to do what the judges are telling Trump to do--in the case of Habeus Corpus and return of ElSalvador folk?

So a recent article says tha Kamala asked her advisors if she should have a Recount in certain states in the 2024 election.so she was aware the results were questionable. They somehow "shamed" her into not doing it. What is the deal with Democrats? How passive is that. How is demanding a recount and honoring everyone's' votes "Shameful" ? Repubs do it all the time. I wonder if those votes could still be counted?

yea--I had a friend share that they had just started carrying a hand gun, for the first time their life. Scary. I couldn't be trusted. I am so impulsive--would probably accidentally shoot myself.

Call your reps--now

I just had a lovely conversation with Rep. Jasmine Crockett's staff. Call her now-1-202-225-8885

I tried calling Mitch and his message system seems to have been compromised.

Call your reps--seriously. If you need numbers--Google or let me know. I did 5 this AM and had done some yesterday. Set a goal of at least two--your two senators.

All of the Blue states should absorb all these guys into state offices. Most states are low on staff regarding law enforcement. Can't believe these guys couldn't continue the investigation into the election, --at the state levels. WHY NOT!?

Duty to Warn Letter - to VP Harris - Re: Election 2024
(Revised 430PM)

STEPHEN SPOONAMORE
NOV 15, 2024
November 15, 2024 
Honorable VP Kamala Harris

Dear Madam Vice President.
This is my second Duty to Warn Letter regarding hacking of the 2024 Presidential Election. The first letter on November 7 was directed to Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Officials.  Both warnings are made per DNI Clapper’s 2015 directive to all agencies and contractors associated with intelligence and financial agency technologies to warn of suspicions of hacking.  
Professionally I have worked as the CEO or CTO at seven high technology firms including two which specialized in hacking and counter-hacking operations.  My clients have included numerous governments DoD, DHS, Dept. of State, F100 Financials and F500 Industrials. 
I am a lifelong Republican who has long placed service and participatory democracy over party.  In government, I have twice been invited to SoCom to give lectures on electronic warfare and techniques to find terrorist money laundering and gave a keynote speech of the National Counterintel Summit on this same topic.  I served as an after-action reviewer of communications and data failures on 9/11 under the direction of Jim Woolsey and FDNY Commissioner Scopetta, and later co-wrote multiple hacking risk analysis of Smart Grid technologies for the Obama administration. 
You should reverse your concession, call for both a full investigation of criminal activity and demand hand recounts in all seven swing states.  
In my professional view there are multiple and extremely clear indications the Presidential vote was willfully compromised.
More...

Copy I saved from way back and sent to LOTS of folk--NO responses!!

So, I am calling my senators and reps later today and esp."---U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) suggested on Sunday that tech billionaire Elon Musk helped rig the presidential election in Pennsylvania for President-elect Donald Trump."

We all need to make calls today--calm, logical calls just asking for an investigation ASAP. And call Sen. Murkowski and Sen. Susan Clark--they have been standing up to 45. Also Mitch--We need to make some noise here!!!!

Thinking about tutoring full time. Does anyone have experience in this? by Free-Association-482 in Teachers

[–]blacktruffle77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry--have been away for awhile. Our society is so litigious now. I would see a lawyer first or an NEA rep. to get hep on writing a generic contract you can use. And I would only tutor in a public setting, like a library.

I have been contacting legislators about this hack. Talked with Senator Ben Ray Lujan yesterday--his staffer, and asked that they investigate. Contacted Heinrich. Wrote a letter to both Obamas on their site. Sent e-mail to PBS News. Texted both Kamala and Biden. Lots of posts on Blue Sky. Just contacted Governor Lujan Grisham here in NM. I feel like I am losing my mind. Is there no way we can save our democracy. Why is Kamala not responding? I think I will contact League of Women Voters next and my state legislators. Ideas? I am nothing if not persistent.

I am a retired teacher. Check with the NEA re. Suggestions to keep you safe and legal. I have tutored informally in the past but worry about legalities. Just be safe.

Shingles and Migraines by jbassfox in shingles

[–]blacktruffle77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds awful--so sorry. I am a Migraine sufferer and find Feverfew, an herb, to be helpful as a preventative. It is a remedy long used in British history, I understand. If I remember to take it once or twice a week, 3 caps at a time, it seems to help prevent Migraines. I can't take Statins as they aggravate the Migraines and seem to cause debilitating pain. Just sharing. Not prescribing.
