Isaiah did four comics for THE COMMON ILLS last week, four night, one comic each night. The other three were "Biden's Last Remaining Supporter," "The Experts" and "21 DUMPSTER"
Now I want to talk about something disgusting. Jimmy Dore, Richard Medhurst, Fiona and Craig of CONVO COUCH and Jackson Hinkle, we see you.
From Ava and C.I.'s "Media: A lot of content, very little truth :"
The programs mentioned above brought convicted sex offender Scott Ritter on to their programs last month Three times arrested for pedophilia, convicted and sent to prison for it,
October 27, 2011, the following was noted:
AP notes
that Scott Ritter received his prison sentence yesterday. Yes, we
noted it in the snapshot but we have to note it repeatedly because so
few will bother to report on the pedophile. Scott Ritter was a Bushy
who turned on his master and began barking and snarling. He really
didn't have a great deal to offer to the Iraq War despite having been a
weapons inspector in the 90s. He published several books, most
unreadable. He ranted and raved when given time and came off unhinged.
When news first broke of a bust for attempting to have a sexual
encounter with an underage female, Pig Ritter refused to answer
questions about it on air (on CNN). Ritter was quickly kicked to the
curb because pedophiles generally are. But instead of addressing that
reality, Amy Goodman and a host of others insisted repeatedly that he
was the victim. They put out Pig Ritter's spin that he was being
punished for seaking out. That arrest, it would turn out, was his
second for that crime. A detail that would get left out.
And
while they were all so happy to have Scott Ritter on their programs as a
guest, they weren't willing to inform their audiences of his 2009
arrest for the same crime, his trial or his sentencing yesterday. Their
sudden reticence was surprising considering how they loved to have him
as their guest -- Amy Goodman, Rachel Maddow (on Air America Radio),
Laura Flanders, Scott Horton, etc. Seymour Hersh went around the
country with him on a tour and to show support as if to say 'Scott
Ritter didn't try to sexually exploit me so he's innocent.' But, of
course, Pig Ritter was accused and convicted of targeting young girls,
not elderly men.
At his 2011 trial, the Pennsylvania's Sexual Offenders Assessment Board's Paula Brust testified that Ritter was "at risk to offend again" and stated, ''He is not able to manage his offending in the community, despite sex offender treatment."
Despite that, Jimmy and CONVO COUCH and Richard Medhurst and Little Jackie Hinkle and many others felt the need to bring him on in April.
"Ava, C.I., you're missing the point! They brought him on to address the issue of pedophiles"
Save that crap for someone else. As we've noted, they brought him on their show, they called him an expert and Jimmy Dore even praised Ritter's poorly written books, but they never told their viewers that Scott Ritter was arrested three times for pedophilia, that he was sent to prison for it (in 2011) and that he was a registered sex offender.
That they didn't think was important? Oh, they knew it was important and that's why they didn't share it. The only thing more repulsive than the hosts were their pathetic viewers leaving comments like "I always agree with Scott Ritter!" Really? Even when he's trying to get a young girl to meet him for sex, even when he's exposing himself online? Who the hell are you? The pathetic Mrs. Scott Ritter?
It's bad enough that the hosts did that but they did it in April.
Why April?
Well when you don't interact with women, maybe you don't grasp that April, each year, is Sexual Assault Awareness Month.
They used that month -- Little Jackie, Fiorella, Craig Pasta, Richard Medhurst, Jimmy Dore and others -- to promote a registered sex offender. That's how they 'celebrated.'
It was outrageous and no one believes that care about women's rights or women's right to privacy after that.
They're speaking out for abortion now? Probably afraid they're going to knock some women up and get stuck with child support -- Fiorella and her phantom penis make her go along for the ride.
It's disgusting.
And we're going to return to another point about these shows and disgusting: They're racist in that they only book themselves. If you just talk to the people in your neighborhood and it's predominately White, well maybe you don't leave your neighborhood for some other reason.
But when you're hosting a program on YOUTUBE and bringing on guests and you don't bring on African-Americans, you're making choices and your choices are racist and someone needs to confront you on that.
We made this point before. We offered examples of guests that they should be bringing on including Glen Ford and Margaret Kimberley of BLACK AGENDA REPORT. We saw one host -- and only one host -- demonstrate the ability of self-reflection and bring Margaret on as a guest (Glen Ford passed away shortly after we posted our piece).
What audience do these supposedly left programs think they're building when they bring on a convicted sex offender? Do they really think any sane woman's going to say, "I am so thrilled Jimmy Dore brought on a pedophile!!! I can't wait to see what his political positions are!!!"
And grasp the message that they really sent: We are more comfortable inviting a White, registered sex offender onto our program than a Black woman or man."
That's what their actions say.
They can have a hissy fit at us -- and they have -- all the want. But we're merely noting how they've chosen to run their programs. And, yes, it is racist.
Hey, Jimmy, Fiorealla, Craig, Richard and Jackie Hinkle, kiss my Black ass.
And don't think you're fooling anyone. You won't bring on Black people but you'll bring a White pedophile who is a convicted sex offender and a registered sex offender.
That says all we need to know about you.
That says all this Black woman needs to know about you.
You don't give a damn about me or any other Black person.
Stop fronting, stop think you're fooling us. We know who you are by your actions and the choices you make. Again, we see you.
This is C.I.'s "Iraq snapshot" for Monday:
Monday, May 9, 2022. The suffering continues in Iraq -- even without visits from the US First Family.
How much is the life of a Kurd worth?
The world makes clear that the amount is zero. Kurdish lives do not matter at all. Which is why Turkey can bomb those areas, invade the areas with ground troops and set up bases in those areas -- bases on foreign soil. All these acts of war are ignored by the world.
Jared Szuba (AL-MONITOR) reports:
US military intelligence believes Iran-backed militias have been coordinating with Kurdish guerrillas to launch attacks on Turkey’s military presence in northern Iraq, according to a Pentagon inspector general report released today.
Prominent Iran-backed militias have publicly slammed Turkey’s military operations targeting fighters of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) from the mountains of northern Iraq, citing violations of Iraq's sovereignty.
The militias are also behind a small but increasing number of rocket attacks on Turkish forces in both Iraq and Syria in recent months, according to the declassified report. Some of the strikes in Iraq were carried out “in cooperation with the PKK,” the US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) reported.
“Following Turkish airstrikes in February that targeted the PKK in northern Iraq, a new Iran-aligned militia group conducted a rocket attack against a Turkish expeditionary base north of Mosul,” the report read. The Turkish outpost near Zlikan, northeast of Mosul, has repeatedly come under rocket fire in the past year.
“The DIA assessed that the militias probably will continue to coordinate with the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), a US-designated foreign terrorist organization, in response to Turkish air and UAV strikes on PKK positions,” the report read.
Is it true?
Who knows?
But if it is true, then what does that say about the US?
The Kurds have been the strongest partner with the US government throughout this ongoing Iraq War and this is how the US government says thank you? By refusing to help the Kurds. By driving them into the arms of Iran. Why? So the us can reward Erdogan who, of course, attacked American citizens when he visited the US, physically attacked them. They were protesting and he had his guards attack them.
That's who we reward.
Don't see the First Lady jetting off to Kurdistan on Mother's Day to call out the deforesting of Kurdistan by Turkish troops. Don't see her landing in Kurdistan and speaking of the rights of the Kurdish people and their right to live freely. Thousands are pouring out of the region because of the terrorism that the Turkish government is carrying out but not a word from the White House.
Joe Biden's so-called friendship with the Kurds was always a one way street. As a US senator, as a vice president and now as a president, he did nothing to help or assist the Kurds. He constantly pressured them to make concessions 'for the greater good but he never did a damn thing for them and that continues to this day.
The Yazidis are in that territory as well.
Remember them? Barack Obama's excuse for sending more US troops into Iraq?
They're fleeing because of the Turkish bombings and assaults.
Joe Biden doesn't care about them either.
Turkey daily carries out attacks, violates Iraq's sovereignty and comits Acts of War and Joe Biden's too scared to call out Erdogan.
That tells you everything you need to know about pathetic Joe.
A question pops up on Twitter:

In other news, the water buffalo are at risk.
Moving to another topic, let's note this from the CDC:
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is caused by infection with a tick-borne virus (Nairovirus) in the family Bunyaviridae. The disease was first characterized in the Crimea in 1944 and given the name Crimean hemorrhagic fever. It was then later recognized in 1969 as the cause of illness in the Congo, thus resulting in the current name of the disease.
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever is found in Eastern Europe, particularly in the former Soviet Union, throughout the Mediterranean, in northwestern China, central Asia, southern Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and the Indian subcontinent.
The World Health Organization adds:
Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever is a viral haemorrhagic fever usually transmitted by ticks. It can also be contracted through contact with viraemic animal tissues (animal tissue where the virus has entered the bloodstream) during and immediately post-slaughter of animals. CCHF outbreaks constitute a threat to public health services as the virus can lead to epidemics, has a high case fatality ratio (10-40%), potentially results in hospital and health facility outbreaks, and is difficult to prevent and treat. CCHF is endemic in all of Africa, the Balkans, the Middle East and in Asia.
The disease was first described in the Crimea in 1944 and given the name Crimean haemorrhagic fever. In 1969 it was recognized that the pathogen causing Crimean haemorrhagic fever was the same as that responsible for an illness identified in 1956 in the Congo. The linkage of the two place names resulted in the current name for the disease and the virus.
Why are we noting this? Because Iraqi is currently dealing with it. Sinan Mahmoud (THE NATIONAL) reports:
Iraq is on high alert after an unusually high number of cases of Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever, which has killed eight people so far this year.
Authorities said one person died on Friday as cases of the virus spread to the country's north, AFP reported.
The virus, which has a death rate of up to 40 per cent, is primarily transmitted to humans through tick bites or infected livestock, said the World Health Organisation.
Human-to-human transmission can occur as a result of contact with the blood, organs, secretions or other bodily fluids of infected people, the WHO said.
There is no vaccine available for people or animals.
40 cases have been registered in Iraq so far this year with 23 in Dhi Qar. Symptoms may include:
* fever
*hemorrhage/bleeding
* fatique
* Dizziness
* aches in muscles, bones or joints
* nausea, vomiting, diarrhea
* "bleeding under the skin, in internal organs, or from the mouth, eyes or ears"
* nervous system malfunction
* coma
* delirium
* kidney failure
* liver and respiratory failure
AFP notes that the most recent death was a butcher and "People are generally infected through contact with the blood of infected animals, often after slaughtering livestock." THE NATIONAL notes that in response the disease, Iraq is spraying crops and livestock.
