  1. You would think Gen Now would have voiced participation in getting the word out to the community regarding this event.

    But then again, considerig this Trump pressing issue primarily revolves around South of the Border Latinos and lack of Latino participation in their get out the vote campaign video with a latino cameo. Perhaps they don’t want to alienate the black support.

    However at least the Bbreast of Ffresh Air, Taste the Movement who’s been going on about how rigged the Ports elections are, with their unrigged campaign voiced their concerns about Trump supporters voicing their concern about a rig election at the highest level in America and the events that took place 4 years ago on January 6th. It is going to be interesting considering tried to blow his head off. Seemingly like many others. JS

    Understandably though considering black support is Disingenuous’ primary demographic group.

    I mean black people saying/thinking/feeling, “build the God damn wall”

    Am I wrong African Americans and owe you an apology by extension Disingenuous or do you owe the original OG Trump supporter of “build the Goddamn wall?

  2. I was present last evening with these comments to the City Council on CIVICS and GOVERNANCE:
    City Council Comments – January 6, 2025
    A “day of infamy” was the term for the Pearl Harbor Attack on December 7, 1941, a war declared by an external enemy to America and what it represents. This evening as we meet in Bridgeport City Hall, we have recognized a more recent “day of infamy” brought about by thousands of American citizens attacking the Capitol in Washington DC and attempting to change the rightful votes of American citizens. It was a forceful, violent, and deadly internal attack on American rights and values. And the hours of video reporting and failure to construct a truthful narration by the guilty over the four years since, leaves a critical space and need for pursuit of truth through facts, and connecting them to a trustworthy narration.
    The study of civics, and practice of our rights and duties daily is critical to our future, and those of our neighbors for generations to come. I enclose a summary of the Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments to the US Constitution. On the reverse side is a summary of Ten Habits of Good Citizens provided by Richard Haass published in 2023. “Support the teaching of Civics,” “Be Informed,” and “Promote the Common Good” are merely three of his suggestions to all of us to daily practice the obligations of American citizenship. Reflect and ponder your actions in 2025.
    As I view Bridgeport governance issues, the funding and results of public education are not sources of pride for taxpayers or parents when today’s headline is calling for ‘consideration of forensic audit.’ And housing issues as handled by the City are not a source of pride either. While a series of Mayors failed to appoint qualified and motivated citizens to carry out the purpose and work of Boards and Commissions, especially around Fair Rent for 20 years, your Council breathed new life into that group. However, the Fair Housing Commission ordinance from 2022 continues on paper only, without citizens pursuing information and action.
    Emma Goldman is quoted as saying: “The most violent element in society is ignorance.” And Plato said: “The price of apathy is to be ruled by evil men.” While Mark Twain, “How easy it is to make people believe a lie and how hard it is to undo that work again.” Happy New YEAR.
