The Prosecutors of Derek Chauvin Trial are doing a through and fantastic Job. Above is a list of the Jury, and I hope they deliver justice for George Floyd, America and the world. We have all be traumatize from seeing, “A man slowly killed In-Cold-Blood, with the world watching.
The year 2020 exposed us all to the,“ Good, Bad and Ugly of Humanity, the Good, “ We got #45 out of Office. The Ugly, “The Coronavirus and all of the consequences as a result. The Bad was,†was having a President with no leadership abilities or people skills.
I needed Theraphy, to get thru 2020, I got, and is still in it. I’m also praying for everyone struggling with whatever your overwhelming issues are, to seek counseling. The well being of your Physical Health, mind, body and soul is priceless.
The other three(3) officers will be tried together in August, they need to be charge with murder also, maybe 2nd or 3rd, because they made choice, and the consequences are going to prison, for their participation in Cold blooded murder of George Floyd.
?Grandmothers, mothers and women (GMW) everywhere, let’s pray for all of the families directly impacted by this atrocity, and for the Soul of our country. In the Name of Jesus we pray?
Grandmothers, Mothers and women (GMW): To our white GMW in particular and Black and Brown GMW in General, Ladies, we have to stop abusing,â€The Me Too Movement Agenda, “ or it’s going to lose its validity, if it hasn’t already. We Are Not Angry Black Women! We need to be supportive of each other, without labels.
We are not angry, we address inappropriate behavior as it happens, so we don’t become victims; and carry it for years, then address it in five or ten years, with feelings of having been victimized. All women have or have had very good reasons to be angry. For example: The right to decide with our doctor only, what we wish to do with my body!!
Inappropriate sexual behavior from man or woman, makes us Spontaneous, we will most-times address it in real time, or speak to them in private, as soon as possible, so as not to make a scene, if we don’t have to, then report the matter to HR and the police for documentation, if necessary, then get on with our lives.
The scenario being played out with Governor Cuomo in New York, is a scenario that has gotten tired. Ladies, if we want a seat at the table, with the responsibilities that goes with it; then we must be able to address any and all situations that disrespects us as women, in real time or, in your time.
Allow yourself to be called, “An angry White women,†then wear the label as a badge of respect. Without apology!!
White men are not the only ones allowed to get angry, shoot-up and killed hundreds of people or terrorize our capital.
Grandmothers, Mothers and Women (GMW). Allegations without facts
GMW: It’s appears the Democrats will eat their own faster than any other party. What has happened to trial by a jury of our peers. Not allegations being treated as facts. With all of the vile and despicable,things #45 did and said, he was only Impeached after he violated the Constitution and instigated a riot on our capital.
Democrats in New York, you know in your heart, this is a Political Power Struggle. Governor Cuomo has served 3 terms, its hard to believe he became a monster over nite. I lived most of my life in NY, and all my friends there, like most New Yorkers wants to see him serve out his term. What Governor and all leader made mistake trying to deal with COVID-19. So, please focus on issues like passing HR1. While you’re’BS’ with Cuomo the GOP has passed over 250 voter suppression laws; Dem., you need to get your priorities in order.
Ladies we need to be more accountable, and stop waiting 5 to 10 years before deciding some high-powered man or woman sexually assaulted us. if it was verbal, respond back as a woman, who will not tolerate disrespect from anyone, then report it to HR. If it was physical document it with the police. Documentation of the violation should be available, if we want to us it to destroy someone’s life. Attaching your complaint to a political bank-wagon should not be allowed after a year. We’re beginning to make the ‘Me Too Movement’ look sinister and manipulative.
The Me Too Movement needs regulation, it has become almost a tool of just allegations without documentation, and persons accused has no recourse; except trial by public opinion. Sometimes, there’s no fury like a woman’s scorn. All of us love the men in our families, and would not want to see them subjected to false allegations. If such charges are proven, then let the chips fall where they may.

President Donald Trump oppose the legislation.
Grandmothers, mothers and women (Gmw) Black, brown, yellow and white; we came together and gave our Democrats the Presidency and Majorities in Congress.
Now we’re joining forces the with the League of Women Voters of the United States(LWVUS) for the passage of these important bills. ASAP, in the 117th Congress
Our New 117th Congress has the Power of 51 votes. The same 51 votes Mitch McConnell used to push through two(2) Supreme court lifetime appointments. On was done in about two weeks to beat the 2020, presidential election. Mr. Chuck Schumer, we need you to pass through these BILLS, with the same Efficacy with your 51 Vote Majority. They all passed the House last year; Nancy did her job, now let’s see you do yours.
Grandmothers, mothers and women (GMW): Trumpism Will not stop the Browning of America. According to the Census Bureau, 2013 marked the first year that a majority of US infants under the age of 1 were nonwhite.
We need accountability for January 6., Its understood that the real Elephant in the room, “Was not Election Fraud, but the Browning of America. According to the Boston globe, “Republicans are sitting on a demographic time bomb of their own making, and it could send them into a tailspin; and it has, January 6, was a perfect example. Thomas Patterson, of The Globe…July 2020; said, “A maxim of two-party politics is that a party needs to be inclusive — a big tent — to be competitive. Whatever the short-term advantage of the GOP’s politics of division, it is now facing the fallout. Millions of younger adults, women, Blacks, Latinx, Asian Americans, LGBTQ, Native American and the college-educated will be pulling the Democratic lever for years to come.
Our Democracy must have Accountability for what happened at our capital on January 6, 2021: It was a coup against our democracy and unconstitutional. Five people were killed including a police officer. Between now and February 9, let’s pray other Senators buy back their souls; and uphold our Constitution.
Fifty-five (55) Senators are ready to hold those responsible, from the President down, for that terrible insurrection. Forty-five (45) others Senators has put a price tag on their Souls and integrity.
GWM there’s nothing our power can do about the Browning of America. But, we can embrace each other’s cultures and enjoy being the United States of America. We’re all Created in the image of one God, (called my many different names) that created the universe; the moon, stars, sun and breathe life into each of us.
But we can make a. difference in 2022. Thirty-four (34) seats in the Senate is up for re-election; twelve (12) are Dems., and twenty-two (22) are GOP, we need those 22 seats, to ensure our Democracy and constitution is safe until the GOP can establish who they are again.
Let The Jesus In Me, Love The Jesus In You, And We Will be Alright.
Grandmothers, Mothers and Women (GMW), Let’s Thank God for them, because they have inherited a disaster, but God placed them there, for just this time in our lives. Quoting Jeremiah 29:11;â€For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you, not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.â€
They have a major part to play, and it’s called,’ “politics.†We have a part to play and it’s called, “Love.†under their leadership and our support, we will be become: The United States of America.
In order to create the America we want and need; we must all, “Chew Gum and Walk.†The Peace we want, has to start with Us. Each of us has work to do in our homes and communities; while holding our elected officials accountable and being supportive, giving credit where it’s due, and criticism when it’s needed. We must keep our mirrors close by also.
In the 1st 100 days of the new administration, while combating the pandemic, Getting our children back in school and stabilizing our economy, we must also pass:
The George Floyd Justice in Policing Act .
The John Lewis,Voting Rights Advancement Act.
They both passed in the House last year; the Senate needs to pass them, if not in the 1st ? days, Then definitely the 2nd ? days.
January 6, 2021, showed us how deep systemic racism runs in our country, but it also spotlights how important voting is. The election of November 2020, dispel the myth that our vote doesn’t count.
GMW 2021 is the year we are going to start reaping the benefits of our Power Tools: Our Vote, Dollars, Love and God. With these tools we will tackle the disparities of, Systemic racism in education, healthcare, home ownership , employment, wealth, And unequal treatment Under our criminal justice system,while saving so many of our children from themselves, especially our sons.

BLACK AND BROWN GMW: What Would have Happened To Out Sons And Daughters?
Insurrection of Our capital
Grandmother, mothers and women (gmw) Black and Brown, Our children would not have been treated so well after a coup or insurrection against our government.
Social Media’s Executives (Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, has taken down Trump’s accounts , to stop his rhetoric, but the powers in the GOP, who looked the other way for 4 years, enabled the insurrection on January 6, 2021, and each of them is responsible for The Health and economic chaos, our country is in right now, with 374,000 deaths and 21 million cases of COVID-19, all from a lack of leadership. If the senate had impeached him when they had a chance, we would not be receiving condolences from around the world, for our lack of ability to protect our lives, Health, economy and capital.
The vice president, the cabinet and congress has the power to invoke the 25th amendment section 4; and have Trump out of office or away from the duties of the president immediately. It allows the vice president, together with a “majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide”, to declare the president “unable to discharge the powers and duties” of their office in a written declaration. Upon the said declaration of the vice president and at least eight of the principal officers of the executive departments, the transfer of authority to the vice president is immediate, and (as with Section 3) the vice presidentÂ
The “principal officers of the executive departments” are the fifteen Cabinet members enumerated in the United States Code at 5 U.S.C 101 (Current officeholders in parentheses):
A president thus declared unable to serve may subsequently issue a declaration stating that they are able; this would mark the beginning of a four-day period, during which the vice president would remain acting president. If by the end of this period the vice president and a majority of the “principal officers of the executive departments” have not issued a second declaration of the president’s incapacity, then the president would resume his powers and duties.
If a second declaration of incapacity is issued within the four-day period, then the vice president remains acting president, while Congress considers the matter. If within 21 days the Senate and the House determine, each by a two-thirds vote, that the president is incapacitated, then the vice president continues as acting president; otherwise the president resumes his powers and duties.
Section 4’s requirements for the vice president to remain acting president indefinitely  – a declaration by the vice president together with a majority of the principal officers or other body, then (if the president makes a counter-declaration) a two-thirds vote of the House and a two-thirds vote of the Senate  – contrasts with the Constitution’s procedure for removal of the president from office for “high crimes and misdemeanors”  – a majority of the House (Article I, Section 2, Clause 5) followed by two-thirds of the Senate (Article I, Section 3, Clause 6).
Participation of the Vice President is an essential element; of Section 4.
Grandmothers, Mothers and Women (GMW), In particular and America in general, Lord Please Give Us The Strength To Endure The Next 30 Days!!! Then we will gladly say, “good riddance to bad rubbish. I’am so Angry, A total disregard for us…Mitch McConnell, is no longer fit to be leader of the Senate.
TAX BREAK FOR 3-MARTINI LUNCHES IN THE STIMULUS PACKAGE
The draft language of the emergency coronavirus relief package includes a tax break for corporate meal expenses pushed by the White House and strongly denounced by some congressional Democrats. It appears, in order for the Democrats to push through a deal to get some relief for the pandemic crisis, they had to give Mitch McConnell the three martini lunch tax credit for corporate meals expense, which is estimated to only cost about 1 billion a year.
President Trump has for months talked about securing the deduction — derisively referred to as the “three-martini lunch†by critics — as a way to revive the restaurant industry badly battered by the pandemic.
But critics said it would do little to help struggling restaurants and would largely benefit business executives who do not urgently need help at this time. Some Democrats recoiled at the proposal, though it has also been denounced as ineffective by conservative tax experts as well.
ZERO TO 26 MILLIONS AMERICANS WITH NO FOOD
“Republicans are nickel-and-diming benefits for jobless workers, while at the same time pushing for tax breaks for three-martini power lunches. It’s unconscionable,†said Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), the ranking Democrat on the Senate Finance Committee.
The cost to taxpayers of the proposal is not known, though tax experts expect it to not exceed a few billion dollars a year.
Since the 1980s, businesses have only been able to deduct 50 percent of their meal expenses off their federal taxes. A proposal championed by the White House and Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) would increase that deduction to 100 percent allowing companies to deduct the full cost of a business meal off their federal taxes.
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin included the meal deduction as a White House priority in negotiations, two people with knowledge of matter said. A Treasury Department spokeswoman declined to comment.
In a statement, Scott heralded the legislation as a “pro-worker, pro-restaurant, and pro-small business bill will lead to increased spending in restaurants and more income for staff.†Republicans pointed to support for the measure by the American Hotel and Lodging Association, US Travel, and the National Restaurant Association.
Trump and Larry Kudlow, director of the White House National Economic Council, have been among the most aggressive proponents of restoring the meal deduction.
LET THEM EAT CAKE
At the White House in April, Trump urged that the United States “go back to the original†version of a tax deduction for entertainment and meals.
The president added: “They’ll send their executives, they’ll send people there, and they get a deduction. That is something that will really bring life back to the restaurants; I think make them hotter than before. You know, they used to have it. And when they ended it, it was really never the same. It was never the same.â€
During a roundtable discussion in May, Trump brought up the idea unprompted and suggested it would be more important than hundreds of billions in emergency small business loans.
“I think it’s, frankly, more important than even the other things we’re talking about,†the president said of restoring the deduction. “I guess, short term, what you’re talking about, is more important, but long-term, the deduction would be phenomenal.â€
Liberal and conservative economists and tax experts have panned the idea.
“Months later it is still bad policy, and still not good economic relief for the current situation,†said Kyle Pomerleau, a tax analyst at the conservative-leaning American Enterprise Institute think tank. “It just should not be in there.â€
Jeff Stein is the White House economics reporter for The Washington Post. He was a crime reporter for the Syracuse Post-Standard and, in 2014, founded the local news nonprofit the Ithaca Voice in Upstate New York. He was also a reporter for Vox.
Gmw, what’s going on in Washington, From our Lame duck President, who appears too no longer has anything to do with The survival of our health and economy of our country.
GMW WE HAVE MUCH WORK 2Do
GMW GOD, God gave us the awesome task of giving birth to every living soul on the face of the earth, when each was born, ‘no long list of instructions followed; the instructions were in our hearts.
Donald Trump has abdicated the responsibilities of the presidency, It appears his sole purpose now, is to create as much havoc as possible for the country, he feels let him down; while using the platform of the Oval Office to accomplish his missions of securing his financial future, while using the power of immunity to help his family and friends, before leaving the oval office.
GMW’s can you see this picture of the Oval Office, the Senate,and the House? ‘ it’s a perfect example of what parenting in America looks like sometimes. Example: In a public Arena, A spoil child is not allowed to have his way, he becomes in raged, yelling, screaming, exhibiting all kinds of bad behavior (The president). The adults in the room, (the house and senate) both Democrats and Republicans, are afraid to discipline the spoiled brat because they have implement laws that won’t allow them to snatch the little brat up, and say to him,†this behavior will not be tolerated or allowed to continue, but, some of the adults in the room has lost their backbones, and is afraid of the brat.
In private spaces (like Court Houses) the brat behaves, because those adults won’t tolerate his behavior; so he brings it to the street (the House, Senate, America) where the adults are so busy fighting each other, they’re not able to come together and control the brat. In the mean-time America is dying.
Grandmothers, mothers and women (GMW),Doesn’t it make you want to just put on your “Mothering Hatâ€, snatch the brat up, tell him go sit down someplace be quiet and still; enough is enough. To the frighten adults around him, (the house and senate and America)†we tell them, “how they should be ashamed of themselves for allowing the child to be in control, when he has surely shown he no longer has the capability of controlling anything, not even himself.
GMW GOD, God gave us the awesome task of giving birth to every living soul on the face of the earth, when each was born, ‘no long list of instructions followed; the instructions were in our hearts.
GMW, God made each of us different. That’s great, because together all of us make up GMW’s in America. In 1 Corinthians 12, states: each of us is unique, but together we make the body complete, and Christ is the head of the body. Jesus gave us two Commandments: to love the Lord and to love others as we love ourselves. (Matthew 22:37-40).
GMW we have work to do: we must step away from the divisive rhetoric going on in our country, not seeing a blue or red, progressive or independent situation; just a country we need of healing, as only we can.do!
?Let’s pray on this in the name of Jesus?Will continue in my next blog.
