In America, As Trump reels from the lack of support at his rally in Tulsa, yet another police officer is under scrutiny for using an illegal choke hold on a suspect, this time in New York where the camera footage from a body cam was released showing the incident. On the Trump rally debacle his re-election team has rejected claims that a social media campaign by Tik-Tok users and K-Pop fans was behind the lower-than-expected turnout for Saturday night's Oklahoma rally as reports start to appear that teenagers are said to have booked tickets without intending to turn up so as to produce empty seats.Before the rally the Trump 2020 team said one million requests had been made for tickets and they had weeded out bogus reservations. But in reality the arena used only holds nineteen thousand seats with the event also planning to extend outside, though that part of it was cancelled as only six thousand actually Trump supporters turned up as counted by the Tulsa fire brigade while the Trump team suggested the figure was much higher. So as Trump sloped off back to the whitehouse late in to the night followed by a day solitude on yet another golf trip the propaganda machine went in to overdrive trying to save the blushes of the re-election crap shoot.
Two other terrifying headlines hitting the world are that the fight to remove the confederate flag from NASCAR has turned nasty as a rope noose was found in one drivers garage who openly protested his views about the flag been used and a BBC one Panorama documentary has surfaced showing how teenagers are been groomed by a neo nazi group looking to create a world order led by a former analyst who worked for the FBI and as a contractor for the Pentagon. In the documentary it was seen that he informed one British teenager that the idea of societal collapse was a "guiding philosophy" while a European teenager was told that such a collapse would be desirable, even at a local level, if it offered a "power vacuum that we can take advantage of" and a third boy was told "we have a goal of initially creating two to three man cells in as many areas as possible" and that the "UK is a place that we think there is a lot of potential". This is just too scary for words, how can such people still exist in this day and age, has the past not taught these radicals anything that white supremacy fails.
While this carries on elsewhere in the world let's take a look at dear old Blighty. So as more news flows out about the tragic stabbings in Reading and Johnson has openly condemned the incident in an interview, except time and time again he just kept repeating the same old rhetoric over and over of "if lessons are to be learned, we will learn them" showing no awareness of how it would be stopped. Meanwhile we await an announcement on Tuesday whether the hospitality sector can reopen on the fourth of July, and whether the two metre distancing rule in England will be relaxed, with some conditions. Health Secretary Matt Hancock earlier said England is "clearly on track" to further ease lockdown restrictions while number ten warned the moves would be reversed if they led to a virus surge. Re-opening the hospitality industry where a lot of the lower paid workers are employed would be a good idea as long as the issue of the virus spreading has been researched scientifically rather than purely economically. What is needed is the type of venues to be thoroughly vetted before there doors are allowed to open especially night clubs where the chances of the virus spreading is greater than the likes of hotels or some pubs. Concert venues, theatres and cinemas where social distancing and the use of masks is possible would be advantageous to the economic upturn needed right now.
With the country in upheaval due to COVID-19, are we seeing a slackening of surveillance on possible terrorists allowing them to conduct acts of terror and the people responsible for the surveillance more concerned with arresting innocent peaceful protesters marching for the civil rights of the masses. At this time where terrorists have had the time to prepare their attacks shouldn't the anti terror divisions have been hard at work watching those known like the attacker in Reading for possible incidents. Anyway what do I know I'm no expert, but questions should be asked about how a possible terrorist know to MI5 could be allowed to openly attack innocent people in a park.
Rant you tomorrow!
