I sin nye bok skriver John Bolton at Donald Trump forsøkte å hindre politietterforskning av politiske hensyn. Han hevder også at Trump ba Kina om hjelp til å vinne valget.

' I søksmålet ber Justisdepartementet om at publiseringen av boka blir utsatt, slik at den kan gjennomgå en ny sikkerhetsvurdering. Det begjæres også at departementet skal få det Bolton måtte tjene på utgivelsen.'

Og det får du ingen motargumenter fra meg om og derfor er det tåpelig å skrike om defund the police når bedre opplæring er det man burde jobbe mot.
En skal ikke lengre enn til sverige for å se hvor galt det kan gå når ferske gjerne innvoterte personer blir utsatt for presset som er med å håndtere et samfunn i oppløsning.
Eric Torell hadde Downs syndrom og siktet på tre bevæpnede politifolk med et lekevåpen. I dag startet rettssaken mot de tre politifolkene som skjøt og drepte 20-åringen.

Og da føler jeg at nå skyter han henne i hjel, liksom, så jeg valgte å skyte med mitt våpen mot denne mannen, og når jeg skyter, når jeg bestemmer meg for å skyte, så får jeg et kraftig tunnelsyn, sier en av politifolkene, og fortsetter:
– Så jeg skyter, og til slutt rygger denne gutten, eller mannen, og faller til bakken, og jeg slutter å skyte og han mister sitt våpen.
Alle tre betjentene skjøt. Til sammen avfyrte de 25 skudd på mellom tre og ti sekunder, ifølge tiltalen.
El, det er mye som tyder på at man ikke trenger så stor tetthet av politifolk om man er villig til å investere penger på andre tjenester. Det virker hvertfall ikke I USA, de fleste andre vestlige land har mye større suksess med en kombinasjon.
Ingen raseprofilering ute og går? Noen som tror at vedkommende ikke ville fått høre "here you go. have a nice day" om han hadde vært hvit? En brå bevegelse og han hadde vært død.
En politikvinne får sine følelser såret da han ikke vil sveive ned vinduet 100 % til henne. Hvordan reagerer hun overfor en person som kjenner sine rettigheter? Hun eskalerer det hele til en ulovlig ransakelse og når han ber om å få snakke med deres overordnede så trekker hun våpen på han. Solid stykke politiarbeid. Ville dette skjedd mot en hvit person? nope.
Så man må være på et korstog for å se at konsekvensene på udugelig politiarbeid inntar helt forskjellige former alt etter hvem som blir utsatt for det?
"Defund the police" is an American slogan that supports divesting funds from police departments and reallocating them to non-policing forms of public safety and community support, such as social services, youth services, housing, education, and other community resources. Activists who use the phrase may do so with varying intentions; some seek modest reductions, while others argue for full defunding as a step toward the abolition of contemporary police services. Activists that support the defunding of police departments often argue that investing in community programs could provide a better crime deterrent for communities; funds will go directly toward addressing social issues, like poverty, homelessness, and mental disorders.[1][2]Police abolitionists call for replacing existing police forces with other systems of public safety, like housing, employment, community health, education, and other programs.[3][4][5]
Kom gjerne med hva som er det korrekt siden dere mener dette er feil….
Jeg mener en bedre opplæring er den beste veien å gå og det koster som kjent mindre enn å putte på politiuniform på en attenåring etter tre uker. Jeg kan selvsagt ta feil og den svenske linjen er bedre og det lønner seg å bruke pengene på cola, pizza og en kasse med sluta skjut buttons.
Mange konservative som ikke er fornøyd med Trump og hvordan GOP har utviklet seg. Det er jo litt synd at amerikanerne nå ser ut til å måtte velge mellom enda mer Trump eller en mann som sannsynligvis vil behøve en verge i løpet av neste presidentperiode.

President Trump has triggered a conservative civil war that divides prominent conservatives, pitting those who support Trump against those who believe that he is destroying principled conservatism and attacking cardinal values of Americanism that have long united America and believers in democracy everywhere.
While Trump proclaims the legacy of Abraham Lincoln is “questionable,” a substantial and rising number of prominent principled conservatives are openly saying he must be defeated.

Det var/er en episode på Youtube fra noen år siden der det er en situasjon hvor flere policer har lagt en fyr i bakken for å sette på ham håndjern. En politikvinne som skule holde ham dekket klarer å trekke av og skyte fyren men han ligger nede. Prøvde å søke episoden men den ble borte i dette:

Litt informativt om de forskjellige ekstremistgruppene som er involvert i opptøyene. Antifa, Boogaloo Bois og Proud Boys. Selv om ingen av dem er drivkreftene bak opptøyene og vandalismen så har de en felles interesse i å holde det gående.

First they came for the statues, then Basil Fawlty got ‘cancelled’ and three spoiled millionaires turned on their creator. So it was with J.K. Rowling’s woke progeny. Harry Potter, it would seem, is deathly shallow. Rupert Grint looked for a moment like holding firm, but he too quickly succumbed to the growing pressure to slip his golden dagger between Rowling’s shoulder blades. Surely these rich list regulars are perfectly placed to say what they actually think, protected from the ever-tightening vice of censorship? Apparently not. Fearing for their virtue or their future or both, the three children rounded on their mother. We must hope for better from Neville Longbottom.
I, too, have come to the conclusion that I may never get an acting job again without expressing ‘correct’ opinions. While this probably isn’t the end of the world for you, it is a cause of some sadness and anxiety for me. Not least because I’ve always loved my job and also because I have two children who need dinner and clothes and a holiday once in a while. In my job there is a lot of waiting around and a lot of banter and more serious conversations that take place on set. Until very recently, my views on life were met mostly with good humour and, if not always agreed with, always respectfully tolerated.
The genesis of this rather bleak view of my prospects came after my appearance on Question Time, where I voiced (slightly exasperatedly) a heresy that I’m fairly confident is held by a sizeable proportion of the population. The heresy was that, far from being hounded out by the baying racists of this statistically very tolerant and diverse country, Meghan Markle might, just might, have left for other reasons. Having spent years around actors, a fairly common trait is an enormous ego and the desire to be the centre of attention. I include myself very firmly in this bracket. So with little mental gymnastics involved, I wondered whether her departure might have had something to do with her being denied the limelight she craved.
I’d said this before on Gogglebox and no one had batted an eyelid. But that was six months earlier, which — amid such blossoming clusters of the pathogenic spread of the woke religion — is an eternity. My opinion was further bolstered as I watched the brave and admired prince slowly compost and droop before our eyes into a bit of a sop; less Prince Hal, more Prince ‘Hang on, what do I say next, darling?’
In this progressive monoculture, with its zealous quest for faraway utopias, I had committed a grave sin. I had used my white privilege to ‘berate and bully’ a person of colour, as the ethnic minority sub-committee of the actors’ union Equity put it.
‘Denounce him! Disgraceful!’ came the cries from the illiberal liberals, who see race in every injustice and cry ‘fascism’ at anyone who doesn’t view the world from their same narrow and unstable ledge of conformity. The media had a field day.
Fortunately I’d had the sense, before my brain became so scrambled I couldn’t think, to hire myself a very good lawyer (something others without my dwindling financial privilege can ill afford) and Equity was reminded politely but firmly that the clue to its job was in the title of the organisation. It agreed to apologise and remunerated me for my troubles. Subsequently the whole of the Equity’s newly formed race equality committee resigned, and as far as I can tell, the whole union seems to be on wobbly ground.

Time passed. I set about removing the tar and feathers and the left-wing commentariat patted itself on the back and moved on. Deliberately or not, though, they missed the real story. Which was more likely: that Britain is an overwhelmingly tolerant and welcoming country, one that people risk their lives attempting to reach, or that Britain is a place where racism and bigotry hide in plain sight? One of these stories sells papers and the other is true.
Anyway, all this is by the by. I use this story to point out that even in the smallest, most apparently meaningless situations, identity politics can cause ripples that turn into bigger and more powerful waves when whipped up by the winds of the outrage media. Our silence at their corruption is read by them as consent.
On 25 May the world watched as a policeman kneeled on a man’s neck for almost nine minutes, killing him. Our jaws dropped in horror and disgust. Something needed to be done. Justice needed to be done and seen to be done. On that, all were agreed. Black lives matter — three such powerful words. Words we all could unite behind. But was it that simple?
A week later, I got a text from a very well-known young actor with a screenshot of a tweet of mine which read: ‘Every single human life is precious. The end.’ ‘Can you explain this to me?’ said the message. My phone rang; I picked it up and knew straight away that my friend and I were not alone on the call. I heard a quiet shushing, an awkward pause, the white noise on the line changed to speakerphone levels, the louder background and less intimate voice that give these things away.
‘Hey Loz… I want to really understand you… I mean… I defend you and as you know… I really love you… [You’re an actor, the only thing you love is the mirror, darling] but this… this is really hard…’
‘Which part of it?’ I said.
‘Can’t you see it’s just wrong?’ they said.
‘What?’ I said.
‘Loz…’ came the gently menacing reply. ‘How can I defend you, man? When you are saying shit like this?’
‘Shit like what?’ I said. ‘That every single human life is precious? Which part of that is problematic for you?’
‘It’s racist,’ came the reply.
Cue deep sigh. Let me say at this point that I firmly believe that most people take the BLM mission statement at face value and support it in kind. I’m aware that I am not black and have no concept of the lived experience of anyone other than myself.
Now where was I? Yes. I asked my ‘chum’ what they saw when they looked at the media coverage of this whole story. I asked whether they had heard of David Dorn (a retired policeman gunned down by a looter attempting to rob a pawn shop) once the rioting began, in the news. I asked whether they thought it was in any way significant that David Dorn (also a black life) had been murdered in cold blood, yet George Floyd’s senseless killing dominated every headline. I asked whether they thought it was significant that the man who gunned down David Dorn when caught would be charged with first-degree murder, and yet George Floyd’s killer would be tried for second-degree murder at best. I asked: was this fair? I asked whether the media might perhaps be complicit in fanning the flames of outrage? Whether George Floyd’s equally precious life was being used to serve other, more sinister objectives?
There was a silence. We ended the call frostily and haven’t spoken since.
My conclusion is that this tragic situation has become part of another narrative, a series of stories wound together to serve a broader societal aim. Righteous global outrage at a cruel and vile killing has morphed into a different agenda. Similar things have happened with other movements; #MeToo,Extinction Rebellion, Brexit, even the Covid-19 pandemic. The left rightly expose great chasms of inequality and hypocrisy in society — then proceed to throw themselves like lemmings into that void, unable to obey their own edicts. Desperately important causes have been politicised to the point of meaninglessness, opportunities for action hijacked swiftly by the cynical actors. No human being could fail to be appalled by what happened to George Floyd. We were united in our outrage. But what could have been a moment for unity has instead torn us apart.
All injustice needs our collective and righteous anger. But the pursuit of that justice should bring us together, not divide us. Not social justice, not climate justice, not black justice. Just justice.
We must start with what unites us, beginning with trying to see the best in people. Though some will exploit our good faith, we should offer it nevertheless. We must be aware of biased media, including our own state broadcaster the BBC. It has moved from the Jeremy Bowen-style ‘show not tell’ reportage of old, to one that describes protests that led to hospitalisations and mass arrests as ‘largely peaceful’. Some news suppliers have decided to relativise, and even encourage, angry mob tactics.
So here I am, a white posh bloke, who loves his job, who has worked hard to be good at it, facing an uncertain future — all for the heinous sin of shaking my fist at the ugly, hypocritical and inconsistent god of progressivism. But unhappily for some (my agent and bank manager mainly) I will continue to say what I believe to be true. I’m not always right and very often wrong, but unless we can accommodate multiple understandings of a situation soon, it will all end with us abandoning words and reason, the tools given to us to heal and come together, in favour of the simpler but far more terrifying tools of engagement: fists, knives and guns. It’s already happening, and we should all be concerned by it. We cannot stand by in silence. Words are the answer.
An Atlanta evangelist has apologized after implying that pre-Civil War slavery had been a blessing for white Americans.
Passion City Church pastor Louie Giglio drew social-media flak after uttering the shocking comments on Sunday.
“We understand the curse that was slavery, white people do,” Giglio said during a discussion with Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy and Christian hip-hop artist Lecrae, according to NBC News. “And we say that was bad, but we miss the blessing of slavery, that it actually built up the framework for the world that white people live in and lived in.”
In an even more tone-deaf gesture, Giglio later claimed to have preferred the phrase “white blessing” over “white privilege.”
“I’m living in the blessing of the curse that happened generationally that allowed me to grow up in Atlanta,” said the pastor.

The fact that Bolton has done an interview with ABC News before testifying to Congress illustrates how hesitant Democrats have been about pursuing open threads of oversight.
www.nbcnews.com
When Republicans controlled the House, they used their investigative powers to target the Democratic Party's nominee for president, Hillary Clinton, going so far as to create a select committee to investigate her in the hope that it would derail her campaign and motivate Republican voters. It worked. "Hillary's emails" and "lock her up" became familiar refrains on the Trump campaign trail. Following the lead of 2016 House Republicans, Senate Republicans are using their majority in 2020 to launch investigations and issue subpoenas targeting Hunter Biden, the son of former Vice President Joe Biden, this year's Democratic nominee.
Even now, Republicans in Congress are not hesitating to use the levers of power to politicize Trump's adversaries. They have no qualms about using their oversight authority to conduct taxpayer-funded witch hunts in the hope that just the mere appearance of impropriety is enough to derail the Biden campaign.
So why aren't Democrats willing to fight fire with fire?
Is it because they're taking the high road? Are they afraid that Trump and Republicans will accuse them of allowing politics to direct their agenda? If that's the case — guess what? That's going to happen anyway. Listen, there are plenty of reasons Congress should be investigating big tech companies — especially social media companies like Facebook and the role those platforms will play in the coming election. But I'm unsure what putting Jeff Bezos front and center at a hearing really achieves at this moment in time. Especially when there are so many other areas of oversight that require immediate attention.
"Here's proof Donald Trump knows he's losing
(CNN) On Thursday, President Donald Trump's campaign began a push for more than the traditional three general election debates with former Vice President Joe Biden.
The effort, which is being led by none other than former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, amounts to the most clear evidence yet that -- despite all of his public bluster -- the President knows he is losing right now.
Remember that as recently as last December, Trump was contemplating sitting out the general election debate season entirely."
