kunstler's vocabulary lesson hits its bi-weekly appearance and shows you new big words. in the process he speaks of lots of odds and ends you could be interested in knowing, or not;


I suppose Mr. Trump dangled visions of North Korea’s future as a Buick showroom and the mysterious Kim Jong Un detected some kind of trap there. A correspondent with military intel credentials writes: “[Eric] Hoffer’s observation that people only revolt when things are getting better seems applicable to DPRK. I can only assume that Kim and his cabal in NK know this or somehow instinctively understand it. In short, as I see it, he can’t afford to let things get really better for North Korean people. So, I believe Trump’s carrot of great economic success for DPRK’s people probably scares Kim badly.”
It was certainly hard to imagine the two leaders in conversation: The President with his larval vocabulary and Mr. Kim in his life-long solipsistic haze. Perhaps they compared hair-dos, both equally strange, would you not admit?  Something tells me that Mr. Kim is not a golfer, so that was out as an icebreaker, though it’s said he does enjoy firing artillery at human targets — one thing that Mr. Trump has not been accused of by former consiglieri-turned-pagliaccio Michael Cohen. Perhaps Mr. Trump let Mr. Kim in on the glorious beauty of an American Cheeseburger, a sure-nuff wonder of the world!
In any case, the US president trundled home without nailing that ole coonskin to the wall, as one of his predecessors put it, but the game isn’t over. For now, it’s back to war on the home front against the armies of Wokesterdom. That movement appears to be floundering a bit too now as Jussie Smollett whirls down the memory hole, and #MeToo sputters, and the various congressional committees scrape the bottom of every barrel for the always-elusive triumphal “gotcha” in their crusade to correct the 2016 election. The fishy barrel that Michael Cohen came out of provided disappointingly thin sludge, so now The New York Times (official playbill of Wokesterdom) informs us that next up they’ll be hauling Mr. Trump’s financial officer, one Allen Weisselberg, into the star chamber for a ‘splainin’ session. Pretty soon, they’ll make the amazing discovery that the New York City construction scene is run by the mob. Won’t that be a revelation?.......http://kunstler.com/clusterfuck-nation/marching-to-gilead/

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (CN) – After an argument with his wife ended nonviolently, Joseph Ledesma hopped into his truck to try and clear his mind. But before he could make it out of his driveway, a Vallejo Police officer appeared and started thumping on the truck window with a flashlight.
What started as a typical domestic violence call – the marital dispute ended quietly before officers even arrived – escalated into a police beating that left the 5-foot-5-inch, middle-aged husband with broken arms and without a job on Christmas.  
While both responding officers had lapel cameras, they weren’t recording as officer Robert DeMarco shot the couple’s dog with a stun gun and beat Ledesma over and over until his baton stopped working.
“The officer broke his baton on Mr. Ledesma’s bones. I’ve never seen that before,” said the Ledesmas’ attorney Melissa Nold.
Officers arrested Ledesma in the aftermath of the December 2015 incident that left the carpenter permanently disabled and with a heap of medical bills. He later pleaded no contest to disturbing the peace by unlawfully fighting in public, but the original count of resisting arrest was dismissed.
The two officers and the city of Vallejo are now fighting Ledesma and his wife in court, with a federal judge in Sacramento on Tuesday denying the defendants’ motion for summary judgment. U.S. District Judge Morrison England says he can’t tell whether the level of force was warranted considering the wildly different versions of the beating given by the Ledesmas and officers.
Judge England and potentially a jury will have their hands full because of the “factual discrepancies” and lack of video footage.
What’s clear is that the incident was sparked when DeMarco hit the Ledesmas’ pit bull Bella with stun gun when it ran through an open gate. DeMarco claims he felt the dog was about to attack and that Ledesma got out of the truck and walked across the front yard and assumed a “fighting stance” after Bella was hit. Both DeMarco and fellow officer Amanda Blain say Ledesma resisted and fought back as he was being pummeled on the ground........https://fromthetrenchesworldreport.com/claims-of-brutal-beating-by-police-headed-to-trial/242460
