A man the feds believed was the infamous hijacker D.B. Cooper passed away. He may have taken the legend with him.

So back in 1971, an American man hijacked an airliner leaving Washington state. While on board, the terrorist claimed he had a bomb and demanded a ransom of $200,000.

When the feds complied with his demand, he opened the airliner entry door and jumped out. He deployed a parachute and drifted into the Oregon wilderness.

He was never seen again.

Fox News reports that Sheridan Peterson, long thought to be D.B. Cooper passed away.

A prominent suspect in the infamous D.B. Cooper skyjacking case died earlier this month in Northern California, according to reports.  He was 94.

The 1971 skyjacking by a man using the name Dan Cooper left the world breathless as he ransomed 36 hostages aboard Northwest Orient Flight 305 for $200,000, then parachuted from the plane with the money.

D.B. Cooper disappeared from sight and into history, his true identity unknown.

Peterson was chief among the suspects, with investigators pointing to his experience as a smokejumper, his love of skydiving and taking physical risks, and even reportedly "experimenting with homemade bat wings," according to The Oregonian.

Peterson died Jan. 8, according to Legacy.com, a memorials website. The circumstances of his death are not known. He is survived by his son and daughter.

The California native served in the Marines during World War II and later worked as a technical editor at Boeing, based in Seattle.

A stash of money was found buried along the Columbia River near Portland, Ore., in 1980, but the FBI continued its manhunt.  The case remains the only unsolved skyjacking in U.S. history, with many interesting candidates topping the list of suspects.

Pheonix entrepreneur Eric Ullis spent years trying to figure out D.B. Cooper’s identity. In the end, Ullis was "98%" certain that Peterson was the man behind the famous heist.

Peterson flirted with the idea that he was D.B. Cooper on a number of occasions: He most prominently toyed with suspicion in a 2007 issue of Smokejumper, a magazine published by the National Smokejumper Association.

"Actually, the FBI had good reason to suspect me," Peterson wrote. "Friends and associates agreed that I was without a doubt D.B. Cooper. There were too many circumstances involved for it to be a coincidence."

"At the time of the heist, I was 44 years old," Peterson explained. "That was the approximate age Cooper was assumed to have been, and I closely resembled sketches of the hijacker."

Peterson also admitted that he did himself no favors when photos surfaced from a Boeing news sheet that showed him dressed in the exact same formal attire reportedly worn by D.B. Cooper during the heist. Peterson insisted that he was in Nepal at the time of the skyjacking, but the FBI continued to monitor him as a prime suspect.

Peterson is not the first suspect to have passed away before the FBI could come to any final conclusion about the D.B. Cooper case.

Another suspect, Robert Rackstraw, died in 2019 at the age of 75.

Many amateur sleuths pointed to Rackstraw, but the FBI discounted him due to his age: He would have been 28 at the time, while witnesses said the suspect was 35 to 45 years of age.

Rackstraw once jokingly admitted to being the jumper, and codebreakers claimed that a letter sent by D.B. Cooper indicated Rackstraw was the culprit.

Another researcher claimed in 2018 to have determined that D.B. Cooper was actually William J. Smith, who may have taken the name from his deceased friend Ira Daniel Cooper.

The analyst speculated that Smith and his wife, a woman named Dolores, may have planned the spectacular crime together. Dolores retired at the fairly young age of 54.


Double K Passed Away!

The hip-hop community mourns the death of rapper and media personality Michael Turner known professionally as Double K from the rap group, The People Under the Stairs.

Rapper Double K died at the age of 43.

The news of Double K's death first broke on Sunday. At the time of this report, Turner's cause of death has not been revealed. But his passing was confirmed through several social media tributes from close friends and collaborators. 

Double K connected with his partner, Christopher "Thes One" Portugal, in 1997. The following year, they released their debut project, The Next Step. Since then, they created 15 albums and three compilation albums consisting of music that didn't make their studio projects. In 2019, they decided to formally disband by releasing their final project, Sincerely, The P. 

People Under the Stairs was a rap group that used MCing, DJing and producing content through their own means.

During their career, People Under the Stairs was a staple in the Los Angeles underground hip-hop scene. They worked with everyone from George Clinton to Jurassic 5 and Hieroglyphics. They also had a hand in inspiring younger legendary acts like Mac Miller.

"It’s professional underground," Double K said when explaining the group's style and decision to only use a turntable and mixer when producing instrumentals. "No matter what we use, we’re never more than a step away from two turntables and a microphone. It’s homemade funk."

Complex didn't get confirmation on what lead to his passing.

People Under the Stairs was an American hip hop duo from Los Angeles, California, formed in 1997 and disbanded in 2019. Since their inception, the group has consisted solely of Christopher Portugal (Thes One) and Michael Turner (Double K). The group employed a DIY work ethic of sampling, MCing, DJing, and producing all of their output.

People Under the Stars released over 15 albums. The two disbanded in 2019.

South Carolina Republicans "Kick Out" Tom Rice!

They were all good until Tom Rice impeached Donald J. Trump.

The Republicans are going to get a wake up call in 2022 if they don't pull their heads out their asses. They better get use to the new norms.

Former president Donald J. Trump still has a hold on the Republican Party and it could be a huge problem going into the Biden presidency. President Joe Biden and his team are working to prevent the mistakes that former president Barack Obama made when Republicans were being well you know.... Republicans.

It appears that the loyalty to Trump and white nationalism continues to burden the Republican Party. A party that is pretty damn clueless about "radicalism" and the definition of patriotism.

Since the U.S. Capitol chaos, Trump was impeached for the second time and he was kicked off social media after continuously lying about the results of the presidential election.

Biden continues to deal with the elements of extremism within the Republican Party and some in the Democratic Party. 

The Democrats have a slim majority in the House and Senate. With the White House is Biden's responsibility, he inherits a mess.

Of the 10 Republicans who voted to impeach Trump, three of them are facing heavy backlash from Trump and his base of extremists.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) went out of his district to Wyoming to call upon Republicans to oust Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY). She was the high ranking Republican who joined nine others to impeach the 45th President of the United States for inciting an insurrection.

Now it appears that Republicans are furious with those who turned on Trump.

Rep. Tom Rice (R-SC) became the latest Republican lawmaker to face the ire of Trump and his state's party.

After the vote, a letter and potential resolution at the grassroots level started forming in the South Carolina 7th Congressional District, the SCGOP said.

"We made our disappointment clear the night of the impeachment vote. Trying to impeach a president, with a week left in his term, is never legitimate and is nothing more than a political kick on the way out the door," said SCGOP Chairman Drew McKissick.



"Congressman Rice's vote unfortunately played right into the Democrats' game, and the people in his district, and ultimately our State Executive Committee, wanted him to know they wholeheartedly disagree with his decision."

Since the attack on the U.S. Capitol, Rice said he's received backlash, oftentimes from people he said he doesn't even represent, about his decision to vote to impeach former President Donald Trump.

“I am not going to stand by and watch any man trample on our Constitution. I take an oath. I will defend the Constitution. I don’t take an oath to Donald Trump. I don’t take an oath to the Republican Party. I take an oath to defend our Constitution and that’s what I will do," said Rice.

At times, Rice said he thought he might lose his political career. Recently, he was appointed to what’s called the Problem Solvers Caucus which is a bi-partisan group made up of 28 Democrats and 28 Republicans. He was voted in by other members of Congress. Ever since then, Rice said he’s moving forward and focusing on his wife, sons, and the people he serves.

State party-level censures aren’t common in South Carolina. The GOP in 2009 issued one to then-Gov. Mark Sanford after he fled the state for five days to visit a lover in Argentina. In 2009 and 2010, several county-level Republican parties censured U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham for his willingness to work on bipartisan deals, with one county deriding Graham’s “condescending attitude” to the party’s grassroots organizers.

Tom Rice may face a primary challenge. 

The censure is a symbolic expression of disapproval that some warn could have electoral consequences for Rice, who has represented the 7th District since its creation in 2012. Long a reliable backer of Trump's policies, Rice campaigned with the president and, according to FiveThirtyEight, voted 94% of the time in favor of Trump-backed legislation — the highest percentage among South Carolina’s current delegation.

Rep. Tom Rice released a statement in response to the censure:

"I have been a strong and loyal supporter of the South Carolina Republican Party for more than a decade. I have stood with them, campaigned with them, provided their candidates resources, and been in their corner through thick and thin. Since being elected to Congress, I’ve contributed more than $2 million to our national Party to help Republican candidates for Congress.In Washington, I fought together with President Trump to cut taxes on small businesses, invest in new infrastructure, adopt an America First Trade policy, build our border wall, stop new restrictions on guns, and pass the historic 2018 Farm Bill. Together, and because of President Trump’s leadership, America has seen historic economic growth and we have experienced countless other historic achievements. To accuse me of not supporting President Trump is to ignore my 94% pro-Trump voting record.My vote to impeach President Trump was no reflection on his policies, his effectiveness, his accomplishments, nor my conservative values and voting record. It was a vote to honor my oath of office. That oath was not to Chairman McKissick, nor to the S.C. Republican Party, nor to President Trump. That oath, sworn to on the Bible, was to protect and defend our Constitution.I personally witnessed an insurrection in the Capitol on Jan. 6. I saw the rioters who were demanding to hang Vice President Pence. I heard the gunshots and smelled the tear gas. I was on Capitol Hill when the Capitol Police were overrun and Officer Sicknick gave his life, at the hands of this mob, to honor the oath he took to defend our Constitution. I saw, as we all did, the President’s lack of leadership in not stopping the mob, his callous actions saying Mike Pence had no courage, and his comments, in the middle of riot, that “These are the things that happen when victory is viciously stripped from these great patriots remember this day forever.

To President Trump: those weren’t “patriots” who killed Officer Sicknick. And threatening to hang our Vice President on makeshift gallows on the Capitol lawn is not something that just “happens”. You could have swiftly and forcefully intervened to stop the deadly siege on the United States Capitol and you did not.

To my friends in the S.C. Republican Party: I will not stand idly by, and ignore the oath I took before God, when the evidence is so clear. President Trump bears much of the responsibility for that attack. I cannot ignore this blatant violation of our constitution, regardless of whether the President is a Republican or a Democrat, or regardless of his name being Donald Trump. It seems my friends at the South Carolina Republican Party have fogotten their very own creed which states, “I will never cower before any master, save my God.

I was provided no notice of the meeting today. To Chairman McKissick and numerous other members of your State Executive Committee, had you returned my call, I would have told you that I have no ill-will towards the S.C. Republican Party and will continue to advance our shared values, to create opportunity for all."

This is how the Republican Party operates. If you ain't kissing Trump's ass, they'll throw you out to the fishes. That's why it's difficult for Republicans to get it through their squash brains that the party is too extreme and it's going to hurt their brand.

Now, I've said it back when Barack Obama won his elections and I seen the Republican Party magically return back to the majority and demonize the 44th President of the United States in his final years.

I am so tired of the Republican Party believing they are the rightful owners of liberty, patriotism and freedom.

The far-right is leaning towards fascism. It's a damn shame though, it was once the party of limited government, prosperity and conservatism.

Not anymore. It's the party of white nationalism with a handful of tokens to blind to see that the Republican Party looks at them as racial instruments they can dispose of at any given time.

Gun Violence Never Took A Break!

Gun violence is still a pandemic.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES!


Indiana family murdered by their teenage son.

1. Indianapolis teen killed his family.

A 17-year old terrorist murdered his family in Indianapolis. The suspect is charged with shooting and killing his father, his mother, his older brother, his pregnant girlfriend and his sister.  The suspect also shot his younger brother but he still fighting for his life.

The horror on Adams Street began with an argument that plays out in nearly every American family with a teenager: a battle over staying out too late. This one, though, didn't end in a grounding or scolding. Police and prosecutors say it ended in the worst mass killing in Indianapolis in more than a decade.

A family — mom, dad, two siblings, a pregnant teen and her unborn child, less than a week from entering the world — were slaughtered. Another brother escaped and tried to buy his life with $40. He was shot and left for dead but became the sole survivor of the massacre.

According to that surviving 15-year-old, his father's last words to the son who allegedly killed him were "I love you."

Unrepentant suspect murdered his family.

The Marion County Prosecutor's Office announced Thursday that the terrorist has been formally charged with six counts of murder, attempted murder and carrying a handgun without a license in Marion County. At just 17 years old, the teen cannot be put to death. But he could face up to LIFE if he is found guilty of the murders.

The 17-year-old was arrested Monday at the home of a relative just one day after his family was found slain in the near-northside home they shared.

Kezzie Childs, 42, Raymond Childs, 42, Elijah Childs, 18, Rita Childs, 13, Kiara Hawkins, 19, and her unborn baby boy were pronounced dead after being found in that home shortly before 4 a.m. Sunday.

Officials said Hawkins was in a relationship with Elijah Childs. The other victims were all immediate family.


2. Everett, Washington man kills daughter's boyfriend.

Dustyn Hunt known as Yung Nabii was killed by his girlfriend's dad.

So in 2019, a Washington state man caught a man in his daughter's bedroom. He got into an altercation with the daughter and boyfriend.  He gets his firearm and the boyfriend is shot dead. Now this terrorist is claiming self defense but his daughter believes her father was harboring racist beliefs towards their relationship. 

An Everett man has been charged with second-degree murder, nearly two years after shooting and killing a 21-year-old man who had been dating his daughter.

That’s according to the Snohomish County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office

The suspect is accused of shooting Dustyn Hunt in February 2019.

Prosecutors say he was angry that his 20-year-old daughter tried to sneak Hunt into her room for the night.

When he knocked on the door to check on the two, he was armed; Hunt was not.

The suspect’s attorney did not immediately respond to a request for comment Monday.

The suspect and his wife told investigators they did not allow their daughter, Lauryn, to have overnight guests in her bedroom. According to the charging documents, her parents texted her the night of the fatal incident, writing that they wanted everyone “out of the home by 10:30.”

Grief stricken girlfriend blames her dad. She said he harbored resentment towards her dating a Black man.

When she did not answer, the father armed himself with a pistol and knocked on the door to his daughter’s bedroom. He quickly discovered Hunt hiding under the bed in “in his underwear and an undershirt,” the suspect told officials.

“According to the defendant, he stood up, aimed for the victim’s shoulder and shot him one time,” the charging documents read.

“He admitted that he never thought about punching the victim or hitting him with the gun, and that the shooting was entirely intentional (rather than the gun accidentally going off) because, according to him, he was afraid the victim was trying to choke him.”

The suspect said that he could not explain why he armed himself, adding that he also suspected Hunt could have a weapon.

“Something just didn’t feel right,” he told detectives.

It’s not clear why it took so long for charges to be filed in the case.

“It upsets me so much that this is my own dad. But this is what happened and this is what I saw,” Lauryn Heller told The Seattle Times after the shooting. “I just want there to be justice in whatever way that’s served. I want his family to know peace. I want everybody to know what happened.”

3. Austin, Texas doctor kills a doctor after he was denied a job.

Texas doctor killed in a murder suicide.

A doctor who was dying from terminal cancer decided to take his anger on an employer after he was denied work and health benefits. It was a stand off that took the life of a mother of three.

Two pediatricians were found dead inside a Texas medical building Tuesday night after a hostage situation that lasted more than six hours.

According to Austin police, Dr. Katherine Dodson, 43, was fatally shot inside the Children’s Medical Group in the 1900 block of West 35th Street. The suspect was a 43-year-old pediatrician who then shot himself, police said.

Officers first responded to the scene about 4:30 p.m. after getting a "disturbance call" about an armed man who entered the medical building. They learned the man, later identified as the suspect, had a pistol, a shotgun, two duffel bags and five hostages.

Some of the hostages escaped, police said. Others were later allowed to leave with the exception of Dodson, according to authorities. The hostages told police that the suspect, who had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer, had just visited Dodson's office last week to apply for a volunteer position.

"Other than the previously mentioned visit to this office, there did not appear to be any relation or other contact between Dr. Dodson and the suspect," police said in a news release.

Austin pediatrician killed by a madman.

Hostage negotiators were called to the scene and tried to speak with Narumanchi over a loudspeaker to no avail, according to authorities.

“We haven’t talked to you in a couple hours, and we want to make sure you’re OK,” a SWAT member said, according to NBC affiliate KXAN.

About 10:50 p.m., the news station reported hearing loud bangs. Jody Barr, a KXAN reporter at the scene, wrote on Twitter that he heard “multiple loud explosions” that sounded like gunshots. What followed was silence, Barr reported.

Shortly after midnight, police tweeted that “the SWAT situation has ended" and that they found the bodies of Dodson and the suspect.

The investigation was turned over to the police department’s homicide unit. The Travis County Medical Examiner’s Office was conducting an autopsy to determine the cause of death.

The Children’s Medical Group did not immediately respond to a request for comment. As of Wednesday, the company’s website appeared to be deactivated.

4. Plainclothes New York Police Department Detective shot.

New York police detective shot by suspect.

A plainclothes police officer was struck in a shootout with a suspect spotted in New York City Tuesday night as officers investigated a past shooting.

New security video shows how the intersection in the Soundview section of the Bronx turned into a major crime scene with an NYPD officer shot.

31-year-old Officer Daniel Vargas was shot after members of the Gun Violence Suppression Division saw the man on Lafayette Avenue near White Plains Road just before 10:30 p.m.

The four cops riding in that unmarked car spotted the suspect Ajani Jones who immediately took off running. The officers made a U-turn and followed.

Once under the scaffolding on Lafayette Ave, officials say the officers got out and chased the 24-year-old who they say pulled at a weapon and fired four shots.

One bullet hit Officer Vargas in the back, just below his protective vest.

Vargas fired once, but the 24-year-old suspect was not hit.

"Within minutes, within seconds, they were in a gunfight," Police Commissioner Dermot Shea said.

Witness Alicia Johnson commends the officers for what they did next.

"They called out who they were and they told him to get down," Johnson said. "He got down and they took him into custody."

Vargas was rushed to Jacobi Medical Center by fellow officers, where he was in stable condition.

"He is in a lot of pain, but thankfully we expect him to make a full recovery," Shea said.

"It looks like he's going to make a very strong recovery. So we are counting our blessings tonight," Mayor de Blasio added.

The six-and-a-half-year veteran officer, whom the mayor called "a proud son of the Bronx," was surrounded by family at the hospital, many of them police officers themselves.

"They are very upset. They are very upset," Shea said. "But at the same time, they realize - probably an element of shock - how it could have been very different."

5. Houston father killed by rival family after his daughter was cyberbullied.

Texas dad shot and killed after he confronted his daughter's bully.

Family members of a father of five who was shot to death on Friday said he was hoping to talk to a teen's parents about his daughter being bullied on social media when he was killed.

Brandon Curtis, 35, was shot more than once in the 10900 block of Spring Brook Pass in the Humble area. The shooter claimed self-defense.

Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said it happened after Curtis took his daughter to fight other teens. However, Curtis' wife and sisters dispute that claim.

"I don't feel like it's right to let that come out like that. I'm angry. I'm angry about it," said Curtis' wife, Shantal Harris. "I know my husband. My husband is not like that."

"My brother would never put a hand on a child," said Curtis' sister, Jeran Perkins. "We want justice."

Harris said her 15-year-old daughter has been bullied on social media by the same teen boy for nine months. She shared some of the profanity-laced messages with ABC13 on Monday.

A few months ago, Harris said she and her husband spoke with the boy's father about it. She said Friday evening, her husband, daughter and son left to address the issue again.

"When he left from here, my husband went to go resolve the issue. He wanted to go speak to the parent," explained Harris.

However, Curtis never came home. Once outside the teen's house, the confrontation turned violent. Investigators said a 20-year-old man told them Curtis hit his teen brother.

The man got a gun to protect his brother and shot Curtis, authorities said. He died at the scene.

The man was not charged and the case will be referred to a Harris County grand jury, according to the sheriff's office.

Over the weekend, Harris said her daughter received a message that read, "we all had a fight and killed dey (sic) daddy."

"They think it's a joke," said Robinique Miles, Curtis' sister.

"For them to claim self- defense, it's sickening," added Harris.

Curtis' family want the man who shot him charged.

Curtis, a commercial truck driver, worked tirelessly to provide or his family. Now, they feel compelled to fight for him.

It never happens in your community.......! Until it does! Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. Gun violence and COVID-19 will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how this gun reform is taking away your rights. I don't want to hear that protesting against police killing people of color is hate on cops in general. I don't want to hear talk about the coronavirus being a myth. I don't want hear folks say this is not white privilege. I don't want to hear folks say masks impede their freedoms. I don't want to hear the shit about guns saving lives. These incidents are a tragic part of American history.

FOR EVERY BAD COP, THERE WILL BE A DEAD COP!

I DON'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING ON THE INTERNET OR THE COP'S VERSION.

THERE IS NO GOD!

GOD IS NOT FIXING THIS!

We haven't forgotten about the many mass shootings in the United States. COVID-19 doesn't stop individuals from picking up firearms and killing others.

The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence.

Conservative Outrage Over Khalid Sheikh Mohammed Getting The COVID-19 Vaccine!

Still in the controversial Guantanamo Bay detention, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is getting the COVID-19 vaccine. It's got the exploit 9/11 crowd angry.


BLACK LIVES MATTER

HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE NOW!

GOOGLE'S BLOGGER IS TRASH!

The Republicans are going to get a wake up call in 2022 if they don't pull their heads out their asses. They better get use to the new norms.

We have far-right terrorists in our own country.

There's outrage because over distribution of COVID-19 vaccines being issued to men who were financiers to the September 11, 2001 attack. Still without a trial, the detainees at the military detention camp are not given a trial. 

The New York Post, The Daily Sun, Fox News and The Daily Mail are far-right propaganda and they are looking for ways to undermine President Joe Biden. 

We have over 450,000 people in the United States dead from the coronavirus. We have more lives lost to a pandemic than a terrorist attack caused by foreign operatives.

We must never forget 9/11.

But we must forget 1/6/2021, the worst domestic terrorist attack on our nation's democracy. This event was inspired by an idiot president who hoped his mob would pressure Republicans to not certify his successor. 

This is what Republicans want us to think about! Remember 9/11 and Benghazi. 

Remember Hillary Clinton's emails, Hunter Biden's laptop, Lois Lerner and Barack Obama spying on Trump. Yes, let's worry about conspiracies over facts. 

But let's ignore Hurricane Katrina, Hurricane Rita, Hurricane Maria, Russia meddling in our elections, Charlottesville, the pandemic and the insurrection. 

Instead of having compassion for human lives, we're back to resorting to fear-mongering and Islamophobia. 

So the accused 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed will get the COVID vaccine.

Mohammed and other detainees at Guantanamo Bay will begin receiving the coronavirus vaccine, the Pentagon confirmed Friday.

A spokesman for the Department of Defense confirmed that officials had signed an order which will see COVID-19 vaccinations “offered to all detainees and prisoners.”

The American military has occupied the Guantanamo peninsula in Cuba. The Cuban government wants the Americans to end its sovereignty on their land.

“It will be administered on a voluntary basis and in accordance with the Department’s priority distribution plan,” spokesman Michael Howard told The New York Post.

The order was signed on Jan. 27 by Terry Adirim, the Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs who was sworn in as a Biden appointee on Inauguration Day, a Pentagon spokesman confirmed.

So apparently, the news got back to the far-right and as expected, outrage.

“You can’t make this up. The ridiculousness of what we get from our government. They will run the vaccine down to those lowlifes at Guantanamo Bay before every resident of the United States of America gets it is the theater of the absurd,” said Tom Von Essen, who was city Fire Commissioner during 9/11 and lost 343 firefighters on 9/11.

“It’s fucking nuts,” he said.   

John Feal, a demolition supervisor at the Ground Zero pile in the aftermath of the attacks who has various 9/11-related illnesses, and who has not yet gotten the vaccine, was stunned by the news.

“The fact that the 9/11 community can’t get the vaccine and the terrorists can show how backward our government is,” he told The Post. “It’s the most ludicrous thing I’ve ever heard. It’s an insult to the people who ran into the towers and were killed and those who worked on the pile for months and are ill.”

The average 9/11 responder was 38 at the time and are now age 58-59, short of the cutoff to get the vaccine in New York, said Feal, who runs the Feal Good Foundation, an advocacy group for 9/11 responders and who helped push Congress to permanently extend the 9/11 Victims Compensation Fund.

Brian Sullivan, a retired special security agent with the Federal Aviation Administration, said, “I’m incensed. It’s totally outrageous. I’m 75. I haven’t gotten my COVID vaccine. They’re going to give it Khalid Sheikh Mohammed?”

Sullivan added it’s a scandal that the terrorists haven’t faced justice approaching the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. “This news adds insult to injury. It’s slap in the face to the 9/11 victims’ families,” Sullivan said.

“This year will be the 20th anniversary and the terrorists are still at Guantanamo. And now we’re going to give them the COVID vaccine. It’s just insane.”

Two other men, accused of being accomplices to the 2002 nightclub bombings in Bali, which killed 202 people, would also be in line to get the vaccines under the Defense Dept. order.

The Pentagon’s decision comes as states like New York complain that their cupboards are bare, forcing them to cancel a mass inoculation program, and the Biden administration warns that shortages of the jab will last well into 2021.

On Tuesday, The Post revealed that thousands of New York City teachers have had their COVID-19 vaccine appointments canceled due to dwindling supply and scheduling snafus.

“It is inexcusable and un-American that President Biden is choosing to prioritize convicted terrorists in Gitmo over vulnerable American seniors or veterans,” said Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY).

Retired FDNY Lt. Michael O’Connell worked search and rescue when the towers fell. It left him with sarcoidosis, an auto immune disease.

“This is a real kick in the balls. It’s very upsetting. It’s absolutely disgusting,” he said of the Gitmo vaccination order.

The lawyers for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed have demanded he has a fair trial.

“These terrorists committed harm but the patriots are the one who have to wait to get vaccinated. We responded within 10 seconds of when the first plane crashed into the building. Here we are a year later [since the COVID-19 outbreak] and the politicians can’t get it right on the coronavirus vaccine.”

I find it quick funny that Stefanik and many Republicans put on this straight face when it comes to outrage. Under Donald J. Trump, we have lost Americans through gun violence, natural disasters, a global pandemic, domestic terrorism and suicide.

These morons can't fathom the fact that we're on pace of losing 1 million Americans to the pandemic.

Stefanik was one of the many Republicans who refuse to pass the September 11 Firefighters and Patrolman health and financial assistance bill. This is the bill championed by Jon Stewart. 

Stewart who recently joined Twitter would be proud to point out the bullshit from folks like Stefanik and conservative agitators.

The Republicans have no room to talk about terrorism. They allowed the September 11, 2001 attack happen under their watch. George W. Bush like Trump ignored the warnings from the Presidential Daily Briefings. 

They want to exploit 9/11 for petty grievances. Screw that. 

If you ask me, the United States has to treat everyone. 

Under Joe Biden's administration, federal interns and detainees held still at controversial Guantanamo Bay military detention camp must be treated as well. They still have no trial and Congress refuses to have them tried in federal court on the mainland.

We must end the lawlessness of our government. Due process for all criminals. 

Innocent until proven guilty folks.

They deserve the vaccine as well. Why spread the disease to the military officers who are stationed at Guantanamo?


Trump Grabbed The Republican Party By The.....!

Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy is having another affair. He cheated on his wife with former president Donald J. Trump.

BLACK LIVES MATTER

PROTECT BLACK WOMEN! 

WEAR A DAMN MASK! SAVE A LIFE!

HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE NOW!

GOOGLE'S BLOGGER IS TRASH!

The Republicans are going to get a wake up call in 2022 if they don't pull their heads out their asses. They better get use to the new norms.

Former president Donald J. Trump still has a hold on the Republican Party and it could be a huge problem going into the Biden presidency. President Joe Biden and his team are working to prevent the mistakes that former  president Barack Obama made when Republicans were being well you know.... Republicans.

1. House Minority Leader poses with Trump.

Rep, Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) is facing heat for jetting down to Florida to pay a visit to the former president. Trump has decided to take residence at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, 

The picture shows that McCarthy is hoping to patch things up with Trump. The Minority Leader had condemned the U.S. Capitol chaos and put the blame squarely on Trump.

The Republicans are infighting over a post-Trump presidency. When Trump left office, he vowed to return in some way. The rumors of a third party are coming up and Trump has signalled that he will not support the 10 Republican House members in their reelection bids.

McCarthy allegedly went to Florida to smooth things over with Trump. According to the Minority Leader, Trump still carries a lot a weight within the party and his influence is greatly needed in 2022 when Republicans are hoping to retake the House and Senate.

I am reminded that McCarthy allegedly had an affair with former lawmaker Renee Ellmers of North Carolina. The rumors the two were planning on divorcing their spouses are still secrets in Washington.

2. Former vice president Mike Pence is homeless.

Once he departed Washington, DC, the former vice president went back to Indiana. It appears that Mike Pence and wife Karen are homeless. From word on the street, the former vice president is staying between his brother, Rep. Greg Pence (R-IN) and Gov. Eric Holcomb's summer residence. 

The former vice president was then governor of Indiana. Before that, he was then House Majority whip and a talk radio host. When he won his bid to become governor, Pence sold his home in Columbus, Indiana to move to Indianapolis. Pence who faced the wrath of the mob inspired by Trump's rhetoric is now struggling to find a home.

Former press secretary Sarah Huckabee announced that she is running for governor of Arkansas. She will join a crowded field of Republicans vying for the spot that Asa Hutchinson is planning on giving up. 

Due to the insurrection, many of Trump's allies are struggling to find homes and jobs. 

Which is leading me to No. 3.

Kayleigh McEnany in Florida. The ugly truth came when she found out she has no job.

3. Mark Meadows and Kayleigh McEnany can't find a job.

The insurrection is a scar on the Trump legacy. It's impact will be felt for years. The Republicans will not ever get an opportunity to turn the page on this. They have been so focused on Benghazi, Hillary Clinton's emails and other non-issues will not tell America to move on. We'll move on when those involve are criminally prosecuted and convicted.

Mark Meadows, the fourth chief of staff and Kayleigh McEnany, the fourth press secretary are struggling to find work.

Many in Florida spotted the former press secretary without makeup and said that she looks totally unrecognizable. She and professional baseball player Sean Gilmartin have struggled to find work. He is now a free agent and is currently not signed to a MLB team.

She was the press secretary who promised to not lie to the American people. Wink, wink.

Fox News was expected to hire McEnany to their roster as a contributor. The insurrection has damaged her chances to get a job. 

Jerome Adams, the Black U.S. Surgeon General under Trump was forced out due to his toxicity during the COVID-19 pandemic. He failed to be honest with the American people and criticized the protests against police brutality. Had he done his job properly, Biden would have kept him on. But he decided to appoint Vivek Murthy to position. He will be the 19th and 21st U.S. Surgeon General.

Hope Hicks who had a position with Fox when she left the White House as the communications director. She returned to the White House as a special advisor. Since the insurrection, Hicks is struggling to find a job. So she's taking an extended vacation and has stayed mum on her latest venues.

Matt Gaetz steps out his district to attack Liz Cheney in her district.

Ben Carson, the former HUD secretary caught the coronavirus shortly after appearing at the White House post-election party. He has been basically invisible. He and his wife Candy have lived in Baltimore and Detroit for the most part before he got involved in politics. Now we don't know what his future is now that he's no longer a member of Trump's cabinet.

Mark Meadows, the former North Carolina lawmaker gave up his seat to be a chief of staff for Trump.  He is the final chief of staff for Trump. He was supposed to turnaround the dysfunction at the White House. I guess he ignored that and said let "Trump be Trump." Thanks to that, the insurrection. Now that Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) is occupying the seat and Trump's back candidate is no longer relevant, it's going to be hard to prove to Republicans that Meadows was loyal to Trump if he wants to challenge Cawthorn in a primary. Meadows has taken on odd jobs with former South Carolina senator Jim DeMitt and applied for a role in the Trump Organization.

Meadows and McEnany are looking at Newsmax as a place to do commentary. 

The New York Times has noted that many former Trump advisors and cabinet members are struggling to find employment post-presidency.

Trump for the time being can still collect a pension and have Secret Service protection for three to ten years. He will be playing golf at his resort while his former allies are trying to save their homes and health. 

Liz Cheney is furious at Kevin McCarthy for not dropping the hammer on Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebart. Trump has vowed to support primary challengers against Cheney.

4. Matt Gaetz heads to Cheyenne to bash Liz Cheney.

Rep, Matt Gaetz (R-FL) launched the first attack against his fellow Republicans. He had travelled to Cheyenne, Wyoming to attack Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY). He has signalled he will back any candidate who challenges her in a primary. 

Cheney was one of 10 Republicans who voted in impeaching Trump for inciting an insurrection. 

Cheney has faced calls to resign because she strongly believed that Trump's actions lead to the insurrection and there must be accountability.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-WY), Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO), Sen. Cindy Hyde Smith (R-MS), Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) and Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) have signalled they're willing to support a primary challenger against Cheney as well.

Cheney who is one of the top Republicans in Congress has been on top of Trump's list of Republicans he will campaign against.

She fears that white nationalism will dominate Republicans and cause the party to suffer greater losses in the Midterms.

Gaetz called her a neocon and said that she along with Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) are the corrupt lawmakers who brought the insurrection on themselves.

I am paraphrasing this.

Trump won the state of Wyoming with 70% of the vote. So it appears that Chaney is danger of being primaried by a Republican challenger.

5. Peter Meijer worries his life is on the line.

The freshman Rep. Peter Meijer (R-MI) said it was a difficult decision to impeach Trump. 

Meijer is the son of Hank Meijer, the CEO of the supermarket chain Meijer is facing calls to resign and has gotten death threats since he had voted with Cheney to impeach Trump.

Meijer went on to win his seat after former lawmaker Justin Amash retired. Amash left the Republican Party to become a libertarian and was the only member of the Republicans to impeach Trump the first time.

Meijer had appeared on MSNBC shortly after the insurrection and said that he never saw something like this. He said that he had his family there in Washington, DC at the time and feared that incident would be deadly. 

Now he says he may limit his town halls and is urging Pelosi to fund more security for lawmakers. 

Peter Meijer urging top leaders to provide security for lawmakers.

6. The Republicans want "unity" and to move on.

We can't move on from this. The Republicans wants us to just forget this and come together. The Republicans are hoping that Americans have fickle memories about the insurrection. 

The insurrection was the final act of a disgraceful legacy. The Republican Party lied to the American people numerous times about Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Democrats in general. 

With Fox News at the helm of the propaganda wars, Republicans knew this would happen. From all the talk about socialism, losing American freedoms and fundamental changes by the Democrats, the insurrection was bound to happen.

The Republicans in the Senate have signaled they won't convict Trump for inciting an insurrection. The BIG LIE as the junk food media calls it, it the repeated lies Trump said about the election results.

Trump spent his last days in office to subvert the will of the American people. 

The Republicans believe the Democrats are targeting Trump now that he's out of office.

No.

The 45th President of the United States has betrayed his oath of office. He allowed thousands of his supporters cause damage to the U.S. Capitol. He distracted the Electoral College. He disrupted the peaceful transfer of power. He pressured his Justice Department to investigate his political rivals. He told the QAnon and Proud Boy supporters to "Stand Back and Stand By."

Yes. He needs to be convicted by the senate and forbidden from ever running for higher officer ever again. 

Those involved in the insurrection will face court dates. They already are losing their jobs, their reputations, their social media and their freedoms. Since many didn't wear facial protection going in, they will likely be infected by the coronavirus.

The suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. 

Trump is innocent until proven guilty by the Senate.

The Trump post-presidential team will have only a few weeks to find a defense team.

The trial begins on February 8th.

Marjorie Taylor Greene ain't backing down.

7. Marjorie "Karen" Greene says fuck your concerns.

The Karen Caucus includes Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), Rep. Beth Van Duyne (R-TX) and Rep. Lauren Boebart (R-CO). The three lawmakers are white nationalists.

Greene who is a supporter of QAnon is being slammed for her past videos which happen to show her as a lunatic.

The lawmaker is still defiant. She scrubbed some of her social media posts and has been calling the criticism of her an attack on her freedom of speech.

But the signs are there.

After the insurrection, many lawmakers are calling for accountability and protection.

Greene and other Republicans have continued to stroke tensions and it's becoming a burdon on the party.

She refuses to resign and still aims to create chaos.

Videos that recently surface shows her encouraging Trump supporters to come to Washington, DC to the rally.

We need to hold these people accountable for their actions. It's time to stop the noise.
