In Clear Violation of Law, Trump Promoting Goya Foods
One thing you have to admit about Trump: he’s anything but subtle. He has no regard for the law, and he’s completely shameless and brazen about that.
After Goya Foods’ CEO Robert Unanue said the country was “blessed” to have Donald Trump as president, a boycott (predictably) ensued, as discussed here: Boycotting Goya Foods.
Now we have Ivanka Trump, using her position as Senior Advisor to the President, her father Donald Trump, to promote the brand, a crystal clear violation of the law.
It’s just the latest slap in the face to any American who cares a rat’s ass about rule of law.

I have an old friend who is heavy into conspiracy theories; he tends to be skeptical about anything he hears in the media and gloms onto sinister explanations that may be rumored. True to form, he thinks the pandemic was planned (thus, the “plandemic”) as a health, economic and political experiment. How far can people be pushed in terms of removing their liberties before they will rebel?
Please pardon the profanity in the discussion at left, but this is too good not to share. I don’t have the level of animus as this guy, but I totally see where he’s coming from. (Btw, the Dunning–Kruger effect is that people with low ability at a task tend to overestimate their ability, stemming from the inability of people to recognize their lack of ability.)
William Barr lied to the American people when he said that U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Geoff Berman “would be stepping down.” In fact, Berman had left a meeting with Barr earlier that day insisting he would not be stepping down.
Exactly right. There are tens of millions of Americans, not to mention people around the world who are suffering as a result of his policies, who would love to see him dead, by whatever means: accident, disease, assassination, you pick it.
The first thing anyone should do before commenting on a controversial topic is checking to make sure the facts are correct. This is especially important when the subject is so bizarre as to be beyond all credibility, as is the case here.
American Christian pastor and author John Pavlovitz is best known for his social and political writings from a liberal Christian perspective. Needless to say, he writes voluminously on Trump and his supporters, frequently describing the latter as cult members.
Scottish philosopher David Hume left us with this gem: We always disbelieve the greater miracle. We’re constantly bombarded with information that conflicts with things we believe. How do we sort this out? There is really no other way to do this other than via what Hume told us.
