What I want to share with you today is a post by Joyce Vance from Saturday.  I’ve had a welcome break for a day or two from writing about Donald Trump, but we all knew it couldn’t last forever.  So what’s the latest?  Threats, thinly-veiled threats against a judge, the judge’s daughter, and against the President of the United States.  And what are the courts doing to harness the person behind the threats?  So far, not much.  Neither is the media.  It’s time to put a stop to the madness before someone is killed. Remember January 6^th 2021?  Read on to see what Ms. Vance says …

WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT THIS

By Joyce Vance

30 March 2024

Today’s widely discussed Trump post on Truth Social isn’t just another instance of bad behavior. It’s not just a shrug of the shoulders and a resigned sigh of, “What are you going to do?” Far too often, people resignedly accept Trump’s behavior because they believe there’s no alternative. The zeitgeist is: We can’t make him stop, can we?

Here’s Trump’s Truth Social post. It’s a video, and although I hate to send you to Truth Social, you can watch the whole thing here. Or read on for my description. What you need to know is that this is unprecedented and out of bounds. If you or I did this, the Secret Service would be on our doorstep within hours.

Donald Trump, by the way, is out on bond ahead of trial in four separate criminal cases. Today, he threatened the President of the United States. It’s time for the people with authority to do so to deal with him. Sure, he’s the Republican Party’s presidential candidate, but they won’t reign him in. And someone is going to get hurt if he isn’t.

What is this? It’s a video that Trump posted on his Truth Social account today, around 12:38 p.m. The subject of the clip is two trucks in full “Trump 2024” regalia, driving down the highway. The second one has a full-size, full-color image across the back gate of Joe Biden, unconscious, arms and legs bound as though he’s been kidnapped and left in the back of the pickup truck. As the truck drives off the camera zooms in on the image, just to make sure there’s no missing it.

Trump supporters have claimed on social media that this was part of Trump’s drive to the wake for a slain police officer on Long Island today and that he probably didn’t even notice the photo of Joe Biden. They’re out on social media saying it’s not a threat. I won’t dignify any of that with a response.

I know from experience as a prosecutor how seriously the Secret Service takes every single threat, or anything close to a threat, made against the President of the United States. They take it seriously even when it looks like the person making it lacks any capacity to carry it out. They always check. They always have the talk.

Donald Trump is different from the person who makes a bad joke or an evil suggestion they don’t have the power to follow through on. We know, and more importantly, he knows, how his followers react when he suggests violence. It’s unthinkable, unconscionable for a former president to even intimate that violence against the current president is acceptable. I cannot imagine George W. Bush even joking about something like this when Barack Obama was in the White House, or Obama suggesting Trump should be kidnapped and trussed up in the back of a truck.

जिंदगी बहुत खूबसूरत है, 

इसे सोचा नहीं, जिया जाता है…

जो जीता है इसे जिंदगी की तरह, 

वही इसकी खूबसूरती को समझ पाता है…

🧬 🧬 🧬 🧬 🧬 🧬

Life’s a canvas, beautiful and bright,

Not to ponder, but to live in its light…

Only those who embrace its every hue,

Can truly grasp its beauty, pure and true…

I think upon the days when I was able to run in the fields of my village. I had many responsibilities, as all children do, but we tried to make it fun. I never thought about adulthood. I knew I would be bigger and I’d have a job. I didnt consider the number of people who would rely on me. There is my grandmother, my mother, my aunties and their children as well as my wife her mother and my five children. I get up early to bring my wares to the market on the back of a bicycle. While I work, my wife takes care of the children, gathers water, feeds the chickens, and tends the fields. My boys help. The rest of the women tend to the children, the cooking, and any illnesses in our family.

The next few days will be a story about when I was a boy. I hope you enjoy!

Que o livro é uma das maiores herança culturais que temos. Isso, a gente sabe. E por mais que aconteçam significativas mudanças, seja no sentido de facilitar a vida das pessoas, bem como “modernizar ” o formato destes, organizando, melhor as diversas maneiras de leitura, principalmente, no sentido de deixá- las acessíveis e prazerosas ao leitor, a nossa relação com os livros, é sempre por afinidade, conforto, ou de ter uma companhia agradável ao lado, seja dividido tempo com um café ou simplesmente, pondo a leitura em dia. Independente da situação, um livro é sinônimo de boa companhia.

Eu gosto de sorrir, ver a minha família maravilhosa, meus amigos guerreiros que estão sempre comigo, pessoas que chegam e circulam ao meu lado, coisas simples do dia. Até um céu azul me faz sorrir, uma chuva que chega silenciosa, um café sobre a mesa e pão pra comer com geleia. A vida quase sempre nos permite sorrir…apesar dos desafios…

Ah, ver o mar me faz sorrir, me faz cantar, me faz dançar!
