Right on, Earl. I guess anybody on Fox News, Newsmax or RW podcast segments between now and January 22 need to bring this up then. Frame it in a way that makes MAGAts want to watch it. I was a teenager during the Watergate hearings...we watched it because it was on all of the only 3 channels we had back then.
About the ICE "agitators"...how long to you think it will take before Trump changes our history books to eliminate Paul Revere..."the British are coming" ride?
Hopefully people in the Smithsonian have hidden and preserved what the orange menace ordered removed. Even Eisenhower said save everything because one day someone will try to destroy it. I agree Earl that we will rise to overcome this dictator and his goon squad
The Texas school board text books, have been altering facts about our history for decades. As the biggest purchaser of textbooks, they get far too much say.
We should all plan on TRump committing some horrific invasion of either Iran, or Greenland, during Smith's testimony before Congress. This is his M.O.: To distract, deflect, terrorize and infuriate us. Mainstream media won't air Smith's testimony. What used to be reputable newspapers, like the New York Times and the Washington Post, won't write about it. It's up to us to spread the word and let people know that this travesty needs to be exposed for what it was: an attempted coup to steal the presidency by TRump. TRump is destroying us. He's a danger to our country and the world at large! ENOUGH!!!!
And “national security” be damned. He needs to reveal what files Trump stole and the risk that posed. You can do that… describe in layman’s terms what was found, and expose him for what he did.
When you mentioned Gym Sorts Jordan will be oiling up his arm I thought of Senator “Josh Fisting Hawley.” You know, the guy who likes others to get greased up to the elbow for some sick sex. I think wearing Nazi attire is optional.
For Jordan we could purchase a jacket. Only if it was infested with smallpox…
Yeah, these ass sucking sycophants deserve very special attention.
Jack Smith looks like a man who has seen too much for too long. I literally pray for him -- sometimes multiple times a day -- to a God I don't really believe in. It may not help, but I do it anyway ... just in case.
Other than "the usual" -- (staying informed / talking to people who think I "overthink" everything / sending messages to federal representatives who frankly & openly don't care) -- I'm at a loss as to what else to do.
That this amounts to my version of "thoughts & prayers" just guts me. The irony ... isn't lost.
Alas, the part of America that needs to know Jack may never get a chance. Much will depend on whether or not right wing media covers his testimony. I anicipate that Trump will put out another distraction to make sure as few of his MAGAts ever hear what Jack Smith has to say.
You reference the Nazis only once in the Substack:
"We are standing up for what is good and right, and that is no small thing. Just ask any German who didn't go along with the Nazis."
I referenced them 10 times in mine today. "Did Hitler really need the Holocaust and does Trump really need to treat immigrants like vermin? There’s no way to know whether Hitler needed to try to exterminate all the Jews he could to avoid losing World War II and to make his 1000 Year Reich a reality." >>> https://halbrown.substack.com/p/did-hitler-really-need-the-holocaust
Hitler attacked the Jews to threaten and silence the general German population just as tRUMP is doing with immigrants. Their message, you could be next, so silence or else. Incidentally, Hitler was inspired by what America and Canada did to their indigenous populations for his own treatment of the Jews. He said so. It is an ugly truth but it too must be faced so that we can prevent it from every happening again.
We should remember that Hitler and his Nazi leaders actively studied the enslavement and the racist laws and abuses of Blacks in America to carry out his “final solution” against the Jews.
And, the harassment of trans activists has begun, from what I've been hearing and reading. That means those of us who are Intersex and advocate for letting kids grow up first before agreeing to any treatment will be next.
I wish you well. UBU (You be you). Keep up the good fight! Resistance is not futile. It's the only sane and logical choice with any chance of success. 🙂
Also what America did to its former slaves, to keep them from joining society as full citizens, and are (in the case of christian nationalists), still doing. (as Canada did not have slavery)
I hope I can be of assistance to you all, in our neighbour to the South's time of need. We are rooting for you and doing what we can to exert pressure on our politicians to slow your administration down for the collective good.
Hi. I'm sorry to say I have seen the Canadian newspapers from the 18th & 19th centuries when indigenous people and African Americans were sold here in Canada. Our #s were in the thousands, not millions like in the States but to each of the people enslaved, their's was a hell and unacceptable and inhumane whatever the figures. May education and solidarity keep these days from every returning in our respective nations. And hopefully, improve their conditions as well. Take care. 🙂
Thank you, Earl, for your continued service to humanity. You are George Bailey trying to right the world and defend decency. We are all channelling him as we suffer and struggle to do what is just and right. We know who Potter is and his complicit lackies. You are making a difference. How so many people can watch and be moved by "It's a Wonderful Life" and not be cleansed of their selfishness and hatred towards their fellow humans, I'll never know. There will always be J6 deniers but the truth shall never be erased or forgotten and in the end, it shall set us free. Keep kicking at the darkness and the light shall surely make its way through.
Well deserved. "Great minds think alike" as my dear Mum-in-law said during her time on Earth when she loved all people. You are a rich man, Earl, in the way life is truly measured. Shame so few realize this. All the best to you and yours.
Jack Smith will tell us the whole truth but I would venture to guess that no one on Fox, Newsmax or OAN will even mention his testimony in passing. MAGAites only get their information from these outlets along with Facebook, X and Truth Social. MAGAites are like sheep lining up for slaughter. So sad 😞
Sadly, they seem to need things simplified to black and white, or good/bad dichotomy to understand anything. I believe they are the contingent that reads below the fifth grade level statistic that we hear about.
I’m all for Smith testifying (finally)... all the way !!!!!!
I for one can’t wait ….and it damn sure better be televised !!
But, I also remember reading before his recent “closed door” interview with this same committee, that he was limited by the courts as to what he can address / testify to. With that in mind …….My concern is: The republican’s will make it look like he (Smith) is being evasive, so he has to be lying.
Must see tv indeed! I have shared this far and wide and will continue to remind people that the truth is on the way.
Thanks, Ann.

I reckon that re-writing is already underway, Sharon.
All we can do is make good and damn sure we keep a light on the truth.

I remember that! Those were interesting times for a teenager..

Keep pushing. The cracks are evident and increasing.
NEVER
STOP
PUSHING
Great and timely quote. Let's hope kindness and not cruelty are the majority when elections roll around.

All this is exactly right.
We have a traitor in the White House.
traitors
Thank you for reminding us of the importance of Jack Smith's testimony, Earl. Good Job here, and will reStack ASAP 💯👍
I appreciate that, Karen.
And “national security” be damned. He needs to reveal what files Trump stole and the risk that posed. You can do that… describe in layman’s terms what was found, and expose him for what he did.
And then move on to the Epstein files!
All part of the same (ugly) picture!
Calendar marked, Earl. Not surprising that I first heard about the date from you. Very grateful for this and all your writing.
Will be here in a time zone 5 hours ahead of EST watching it, even when it lasts into the early morning hours. I look forward to your take on it.
Glad to be of help, Beth.
Been pushing for this ever since that damn attack on our country.

My sweet Lord -- what a visual!!!

Smith is a patriot.
(So are you.)
I'm 71 and not ashamed to say that I have a huge crush on Jack Smith! I want him to burn them. And thank you for mentioning Raskin!
<3
He's also an international hero, having put away some of the worst international criminals in his stints at the Hague.
Alas, the part of America that needs to know Jack may never get a chance. Much will depend on whether or not right wing media covers his testimony. I anicipate that Trump will put out another distraction to make sure as few of his MAGAts ever hear what Jack Smith has to say.

High compliment.
I actually watched that movie this year and wondered the same thing ...
Well deserved. "Great minds think alike" as my dear Mum-in-law said during her time on Earth when she loved all people. You are a rich man, Earl, in the way life is truly measured. Shame so few realize this. All the best to you and yours.
Great news!! Thanks for letting us know. I can't wait 👍
Thank you for sharing this important date!

MAGAites only get their information from these outlets along with Facebook, X and Truth Social. MAGAites are like sheep lining up for slaughter. So sad 😞
Agree, Steve, which means we should amplify with everything we got.
Great plan, my friend! Again, thank you for your voice! Much respect 🫡 🇺🇸
Sadly, they seem to need things simplified to black and white, or good/bad dichotomy to understand anything. I believe they are the contingent that reads below the fifth grade level statistic that we hear about.
I will be banging the drum about Jack Smith’s public hearing with you!
Never had a doubt, my friend.
I’m all for Smith testifying (finally)... all the way !!!!!!
I for one can’t wait ….and it damn sure better be televised !!
But, I also remember reading before his recent “closed door” interview with this same committee, that he was limited by the courts as to what he can address / testify to. With that in mind …….My concern is: The republican’s will make it look like he (Smith) is being evasive, so he has to be lying.
