Enthusiastic Trump supporter, Brian Pannebeckerat made the most of his opportunity to speak at Trump’s rally in Michigan. “Thank you President Trump. We got your back. The auto workers are gonna support this guy like we did in 16, 20. We're gonna do it again in 24," said the United Michigan as Trump flashed his proud smile beside him, and the room erupted with enthusiasm. 🇺🇸

Thank you HIGH ON MOVIES @AdriannaReacts on YouTube ❤️ https://youtu.be/wTqByxXqQes What we promised: “On 9/9/90 James Baker told Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev that NATO would not expand beyond reunified Germany “one inch in the eastern direction” “..Frank Elbe, has written that when he met with Baker on 2 February 1990, the two agreed that there was to be no NATO expansion to the East and this would be communicated to the Soviets to facilitate their acceptance..” “A document from the British National Archives that was resurfaced in a report by the German newspaper Der Spiegel reveals that the Soviet Union was promised NATO wouldn’t expand eastward during negotiations at the end of the Cold War.” What we did: “…the real story starts in 2014, when the U.S. government and the neocons in the White House and elsewhere participated and supported the violent overthrow, a coup-d-etat, against the democratically elected government of the Ukraine…” “Then, in 2016, while Obama was still in the White House, the US deployed a land-based air defense system—the “Aegis Ashore”—in Deveselu, Romania. In early 2022, America set up the same system in Redzikowo, Poland. The system can launch Tomahawk nuclear missiles that need only 10 minutes to fly to Moscow…” “America’s proxy war with Russia has transformed Ukraine into a graveyard. Indulging Poland’s passion for war with Russia encourages Poland to follow the Ukrainian example. “On April 4, 2023, Finland officially became the 31st member of the NATO military alliance. The 830-mile border between Finland and Russia is now by far the longest border between any NATO country and Russia..” “In the context of the not-so-cold war between the United States, NATO and Russia, any of these borders is a potentially dangerous flashpoint that could trigger a new crisis, or even a world war..”

“99 Luftballons” The backdrop of this story was the Berlin Wall in the 1980s, a symbol of mistrust and constant strife. The inspiration of the lyrics came to Carlo at a 1980s concert in Berlin at which ninety-nine balloons were released into the sky. That simple action gave birth to the song “99 Luftballons”. It tells the imaginary story of how 99 balloons released into the air and intercepted on radar became the cause of a devastating war between the Soviet dominated East and West Germany. The lyrics, written at the height of turbulent times in Germany, one country divided by the Berlin Wall, goes deeper than just a story to entertain. It speaks of mistrust, insecurity and fear. It was a time of military dominance when violence was commonplace. “99 Luftballons” represents dreams and opportunities lost to war, lovers suddenly torn apart and forced to become enemies because of segregation. It is a cry against social and mental barriers, and a call for freedom and unity. The song is a wake-up call to all the powers that be that violence is not the only way, especially when any innocent gesture could be so badly interpreted.” 😔 IN REAL LIFE: “On 9/9/90 James Baker told Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev that NATO would not expand beyond reunified Germany “one inch in the eastern direction” “Then, in 2016, while Obama was still in the White House, the US deployed a land-based air defense system—the “Aegis Ashore”—in Deveselu, Romania. In early 2022, America set up the same system in Redzikowo, Poland. The system can launch Tomahawk nuclear missiles that need only 10 minutes to fly to Moscow…”

Gavin Newsom is succeeding someone who could be considered his quasi-uncle, since his inauguration continues the decades-long saga of four San Francisco families intertwined by blood, by marriage, by money, by culture and, of course, by politics – the Browns, the Newsoms, the Pelosis and the Gettys. The connections date back at least 80 years, to when Jerry Brown’s father, Pat Brown, ran for San Francisco district attorney, losing in 1939 but winning in 1943, with the help of his close friend and Gavin Newsom’s grandfather, businessman William Newsom. Fast forward two decades. Gov. Pat Brown’s administration developed Squaw Valley for the 1960s winter Olympics and afterward awarded a concession to operate it to William Newsom and his partner, John Pelosi. One of the Pelosi's sons, Paul, married Nancy D’Alesandro, who went into politics and has now reclaimed speakership of the House of Representatives. Another Pelosi son married William Newsom’s daughter, Barbara. Until they divorced, that made Nancy Pelosi something like an aunt by marriage to Gavin Newson (Nancy Pelosi’s brother-in-law was Gavin Newsom’s uncle). The Squaw Valley concession was controversial at the time and created something of a rupture between the two old friends. William Newsom wanted to make significant improvements to the ski complex, including a convention center, but Brown’s Department of Parks and Recreation balked. Newsom and his son, an attorney also named William, held a series of contentious meetings with officials over the issue. An eight-page memo about those 1966 meetings from the department’s director, Fred Jones, buried in the Pat Brown archives, describes the Newsoms as being embittered and the senior Newsom threatening to “hurt the governor politically” as Brown ran for a third term that year against Ronald Reagan. Pat Brown’s bid for a third term failed, and the Reagan administration later bought out the Newsom concession. But the Brown-Newsom connection continued as Brown’s son, Jerry, reclaimed the governorship in 1974. He appointed the younger William Newsom, a personal friend and Gavin’s father, to a Placer County judgeship in 1975 and three years later to the state Court of Appeal. Justice Newsom, who died a few weeks ago, had been an attorney for oil magnate J. Paul Getty, most famously delivering $3 million to Italian kidnapers of Getty’s grandson in 1973. While serving on the appellate bench in the 1980s, he helped Getty’s son, Gordon, secure a change in state trust law that allowed him to claim his share of a multi-heir trust. After Newsom retired from the bench in 1995, he became administrator of Gordon Getty’s own trust, telling one interviewer, “I make my living working for Gordon Getty.” The trust provided seed money for the Plump Jack chain of restaurants and wine shops that Newson’s son, Gavin, and Gordon Getty’s son, Billy, developed, the first being in a Squaw Valley hotel. Gavin Newsom had been informally adopted by the Getty's after his parents divorced, returning a similar favor that the Newsom family had done for a young Gordon Getty many years earlier. Newsom’s Plump Jack business (named for an opera that Gordon Getty wrote) led to a career in San Francisco politics, a stint as mayor, the lieutenant governorship and now to the governorship, succeeding his father’s old friend. He’s keeping it all in the extended family. “It is reported that these files contain shocking information about the criminality of Italian-American family members of the present Speaker of the U. S. House, Nancy Pelosi such as a Mafia connection and rape.” https://www.fromrome.info/2021/01/10/fbi-files-on-nancy-pelosis-father-thomas-dalesandro-jr/ “Nancy Pelosi’s father Thomas D’Alesandro Jr. allegedly was a “constant companion” of notorious mobster Benjamin “Benny Trotta” Magliano and other underworld figures during his political years in Baltimore, MD. D’Alesandro was a Congressman for five terms from 1938 to 1947, and Baltimore mayor for three terms from 1947 to 1959. Magliano was identified by the FBI as one of Baltimore’s “top hoodlums,” https://stateofthenation2012.com/?p=114132 “The 84-year-old can’t understand the fuss of giving his young mistress (Kamala) state jobs while they slept together.” …he also helped the careers of other prominent California Democrats, such as U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Gov. Gavin Newsom, and U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein.”
