Trump Defends Against Partisanship in Federal Judiciary

A Federal Judge of Mexican ancestry named Curiel is presiding over the Trump University case, and Donald Trump has commented that the Judge has an ethnic bias against him. Regardless of that, a President or Presidential right has an implicit right to criticize the judiciary-the third branch of government, as a peer. F.D.R. sought to drastically increase the size of the Supreme Court in order to support his pet policies for making over the entire government, and though he failed in that effort, Presidents and Congress has occasionally directly jostled with each other.

Donald Trump is not a wimpy Pee-wee Herman sized Presidential candidate trying to be a cog in the machine of bureaucracy. He stands as an the prospective leader of an entire branch of government equal for-himself to the entire Federal judiciary. He does thus have an inherent privilage of kicking the stuffings out of it when it needs it.

Lawyers have taken over government in recent years and important legal actions have been made seemingly in concert of special elites transcending the three branches of government and forced upon the people below. That is a reason why the public wants someone besides a Washington insider to run the executive branch for a while-to try to put the elite, aloof rule-from-above and have the poor and middle-class eat it group set back a little from controlling the political fate of the nation; to let democracy have a chance for a time again.

If one is to go on the basis of race and voters choosing to cast a ballot for President Obama, it seems obvious that perhaps 95% of blacks voting for a black man had an implicit racism that cast aside concerns about morality, sin and economic competence in favor of race. Trump may be correct about the political timing of a Mexican judge hearing the case concerning a political candidate that plans to build a wall to defend the U.S. Mexican border against illegal immigration from Mexico. It is entirely possible that the judge has an implicit racial bias against Trump being elected. Trump can say that and probably be correct, perhaps not, however that is the way politics can go ahead in the U.S.A. The insider team has an advantage-a legal advantage they can play to their advantage.

Trumps comments are reasonable as simultaneous campaign positions and legal explorations that at least let the public be aware of the issues. Blacks may be under-represented on U.S. courts from the bench and Barrack Obama appointed none to the Supreme Court, and so they may have had a better reason to cast racist votes the last two elections. Federal Judges that work to support illegal immigration are sedulous though, and that is something a President would be concerned about. Trump isn't in office yet, just practicing perhaps.

Philosophy; Thought That Counts (video essays)

I read two essays from my book Philosophy; Thought That Counts in this video. The topics are 'On Nefarious War' by Li Po and the broadcast media.

Britain Like Scotland Probably Will Vote for Dependence

British voters have a referendum on remaining in or withdrawing from the European Union the 23rd of June. Though polls indicate voters are leaning towards recovering their independence, recent history indicates that the insider establishment powers will twist arms and monkey with things behind the scenes sufficiently that the result will be failure of the referendum and continued British dependence on a super-committee for leadership.

Scottish voters were in a similar position 18 September 2014 and voted to remain dependent. Independence minded Scots won a third term as a majority in the Scottish government and talk is rife about another independence vote if the Brexit referendum is approved by the Brits and they say uff da to the European commune.

That prospect of losing Scotland may be enough to make British voters think again about mooning the European commune with their vote to try independence. Scottish independence leaders seem about as coordinated as Republicans looking for a third party candidate in getting things done. Nothing like biting off the nose to spite the face.

A Japanese chess players texted 'Go Trump' in a game I played yesterday apparently as a feeling about the recent Obama visit to Japan. I had nothing to write in return. I focused on the game and barely won. Maybe the best evolution for Britain would be to unite with Germany and France in making a new nation and letting the northern tier, southern tier and coastal Euro states think about forming their own respective nations. The United States of Europe-the E.U. is kind of an anachronistic idea judging from the times. It is not good to have one corrupt central government force its will upon everyone. Neither is it good to be fractured into a thousand tiny pieces incapable of coordination on policy of mutual interest.

Pay Toilets Could Solve Trans-Gender Evolution Problems

When Tiny Tim waves his hand high in the classroom saying "Teacher, teacher, I need to go to evolve!" the teacher should not need to determine if the kid should go with the lambs or goats. Instead, in a clear pedantic voice the teacher should have a list that has already differentiated students into groups of trans-sexuals, transgenderists, democrats, transvestites, voyeurs, males or females. 

Federal and state bureaucrats have their undies up tight over the order that trans-gender students be free to wander like protected Hindu cattle wheresoever they wish to use a potty, so much as it coincides with their self or social gender identity. Of course it is challenging to say that a social gender identity for androgynous gay-doper Democrats would remain the same or coincide with personal gender identity perspective necessarily. Because of the confusion about the issue, though students are reported by the broadcast media to not care about which gender of evolution unit transsexuals transact in and are said to be tolerant because rioting in schools isn’t liked by school administrators and protests, even symbolically, and may be punished with student grade downgrading or expulsion.

Select corporations have urged innovative solutions for the issue.

Slick-Az-Broadcast Media Int. designed prototype mobile field shape-changing toilets that evolve to conform to the user’s waste discharge configuration specifications in addition to a mobile self-propelled shower with 1000 gallon water capacity and artificial intelligence command and control able to move where-needed to hose down students in its built-in cells. There is an advanced waterless warrior mobile hovercraft biological waste receiver being added to their hovering hospitalizer line as well.

For-pay toilets in public schools and other facilities that eliminate gender specialization entirely and recognize users as individuals paying coin for the privilege of giving fecal or urine discharges for high-tech processing would help to return American values to the cans of freedom. Every student should pay for the privilege of having a safe, secure, state-of-the-art facility for discharging potentially hazardous biological waste materials. Each safe-toilet facility should have a unisex physical infrastructure with a traditional pooper and scale that would weight the individual sitting on it while measuring body temperature and blood pressure, heart rate etc and provide a data for the quantity of waste released into the recycling environment.

An Obamacraps student subsidy for those with parents means-tested to earn fewer than $50,000 dollars per household income annually would provide an Bamako-issued federal student toilet I.D. toilet debit card containing the equivalent of a roll of quarters that would afford relief for the poor and middle class traumatized by their diminishing numbers.

One of the significant problems in sex discrimination has been the exclusive male use of stand-up urinals. That traditional discrimination induction appliance should be replaced by an appliance that permits women to urinate without sitting down on a pooper. The need to spare millions of gallons of water from being wasted in toilets designed to carry crap rather than the far more waterless urine appliances designed for males cries out for an innovative stand-up to piss female appliance or even gender-neutral uni-pisser. Perhaps it could be something like the tube with a small funnel on it in the back of certain Army trucks that recruits are told to put their mouth on and talk in that was designed for pissing from a moving vehicle, on-the-go.

Inflatable Space Module the Start of Something Big

When the Bigelow inflatable space model went up on the second try at the Space Station it proved an important derivative point; inflatable building forms-for example a sphere, could be used in zero gravity or on Mars and spray coated or rolled with a permanent adhesive substance. Building thousands of empty space spheres for various living purposes easily and at low cost requires the invention or application of the right materials for zero-G, Mars and the Moon.

Inventors and governments cannot always have classified insider documents go to currency speculators via blackberry and guarantee booming financial success. Even when a Yoda-breaking-bad to the dark side of the force doesn’t work to finance pioneering exploration work investors periodically appear to fill in the gaps.

The inflatable Bigelow inflatable module showed it works outside the Washington D.C. beltway in the micro-gravity field. One would like to see inflatable building forms develop with field testing on the moon, Mars and at the Space Station. Making the special strong-lightweight coating that can be applied at near absolute zero and yet will harden to make a strong-permanent building shell should be something easy of materials physicists today.

I have read somewhere that aluminum naturally welds itself in micro-gravity. Maybe ground ground up aluminum dust coatings have potential as a building shell coating.

Inflatable forms could be scalable to very large sizes. Complete sphere could have exterior connectors to other spheres and even low-cost ion engines to speed them around the solar system as working, transport, freight, agriculture, research and habitation and storage modules by the hundreds of thousands.

How Energy & Tax Issues Differ in 2016 Election Cycle

Traditionally democrats and Republicans have had substantial differences in policy approaches to energy and taxation during Presidential election cycles since the Arab Oil Embargo of 1973. President carter's synthetic fuel plant at Parachute Colorado never went to far. The Federal Strategic Petroleum Reserve did however, and even now that oil in salt domes seems quaint. Fracking has crashed the value of oil per barrel and the price may stay low the next 20 years or longer if foreign nations commence large scale fracking too.

It is a paradox that U.S. energy companies may look toward the rival solar and wind power producers, that they have already begun to buy in to, as a way to help keep oil from dropping too far in sales price. If solar power becomes ubiquitous as building coatings, automobile finishes; even highway repaving material and roofing material, and if foreign oil developers begin large scale fracking, the motivation to increase American fracking may decrease and oil supplies may thus be slower to increase in volume available overall.

If demand for U.S. oil decreases while solar and wind power dramatically increase a careful maintenance of the value of oil may follow because of the decrease domestically for it. Large U.S, multinational oil corporations have vast quantities of foreign oil as well they can import in a few days with supertankers to moderate price. Because restricting supply increases demand and sales price generally if there is an existing demand for a product, just as restricting labor supply increases the value of labor if there is an existing demand for labor, limiting the increase of demand for oil and increasing the availability of solar and wind power that oil corporations invest in may make the best price moderation criterion for the multinationals and consumers alike.

Fundamentally there is little real difference in U.S. energy policy from Democrats or Republicans in 2016. No one likes coal of course except for the honest, honorable workers employed in that difficult industry. Demagogic appeals from either side have different values of course, yet retraining workers and capping the dirty business is the best realistic plan.

Energy policy of either party isn't too different, yet neither is tax policy. Democrats in the majority with a Democrat President made tax cuts for the rich permanent. Yet rhetorically the President gave crocodile tears about wishing to increase taxes on the rich-nearly and impossibility without a Democrat majority, and of course it was the Democrats to passed the tax bill in the first place, so that issue is as much bunk as the President Obama dropping into Hiroshima to make a legacy speech about getting rid of all nuclear weapons. Seven years into his administration is too late to muse about that. Informed people are aware that arms nuclear arms reduction requires serious and substantive talks and require several elements to be aligned.

A certain trust must be established among nations. President Obama has increased distrust of Russian leadership and President Putin has little reason to trust the U.S.A. after its Ukraine and Syria policies. President Obama led sanctions against not only Syria, but Russia too and has done much economic harm.

The President hasn't exactly made India and Pakistan more trusting of each other, and neither North Korea. It is also hard to imagine China getting rid of its nuclear arsenal. If anything they are likely to increase it.

It the President's tax are nuclear disarmament policies are a sham, so are the differences between the Republican and Democrat parties on energy and taxation. Environmental policy is important however neither party has the slightest ecospheric economic foundation too its economic approach. Each have non-renewable economic value principles are from my perspective are primitive. Democrats say much about supporting good environmental policy and actually make a very slight difference, while Republicans honestly say they don 't give rats ass about keeping wilderness or restoring it and stopping mass extinction. The bottom line is that the environment loses 99 to 0 with Republicans and 89 to 0 with Democrats in the game of human life on Earth

Get Job Training & Work for Euro-Bound Refugees

Providing job training for European bound cross-Mediterranean refugees in a secure North African enclave would be better than admitting them to Europe for eventual distribution into the body politic. Especially in the case of Libya and Syria the refugees may have been selected by Al Qaeda and ISIS as sleeper agents or support elements to attack Europe. At the least they would add a lot to crime and education costs for receptive European nations. Another problem is that they are generally Muslims; the more the arrive in Europe the greater is the problem of an antipathetic internal proletariat.

Africa and the Middle East have innumerable problems that might be partly alleviated with a new source of well-trained teachers and advisors to build electrical, water extraction and health facilities etc. A veritable alternative peace corps comprised of refugees signed into a 3 to 6 month training program with three years of paid employment in select African and Middle Eastern countries with substantial social survival and standard of living issues that is paid for by European nations would probably cost less in several respects than disregarding African issues and flooding Europe with refugees that European security forces would actually have a fairly difficult time in vetting-Muslims might at any rate change their minds later when approached by actual mufsidoonists.

A special refugee enclave and job training center built in Africa with full European support could collect refugees and educate them in valuable skills programs with a modest stipend to enable them to live and work. African nations would benefit with the input from the former refugees. A three year program might be adequate to allow refugees to return to a home nation where problems have been resolved. Of course since President Obama and European leaders deposed the Khaddafi regime intentionally and created the ISIS-Al Qaeda problem in Libya, they may not expect that Libya can be stabilized in another three years. Perhaps a re-enlistment to serve a total of six years would be possible.

A functioning put-the-refugees-to human work with education and support is a realistic approach to solving the recurrent problem. The refugees would need to actually be from a nation with real civil war and chaos sorts of issues created commonly by interfering western leaders, yet even locally caused strife probably would be sufficient to get those admitted to a refugee training enclave.

Quite likely their should be a number of refugee training enclave built around the globe to better process people fleeing war, government and media persecution etc. Even Mexicans fleeing Mexican poverty and war illegally entering the U.S.A. might benefit from a catch and release job training program while ordinary criminals go to jail. Perhaps most of the illegal aliens are unskilled in labor and need to become electricians, water treatment specialists, medics, computer repairmen, solar panel installers etc. If the United States trained them and paid them one dollar and hour to remain in Mexico (or some sort of local minimum wage equivalent), they might actually remain in Mexico and do some good saving the taxpayers of the states. money and letting wages rise.

The Fate of Mud, Bugs and Man (poem)

The bug as vexatious tyranny of intent

complex evolving composition acting for-itself

flying in leaps for plant designs

of rain-born forms stretching toward the sun

Leaves waver in a breeze pushed by clouds

swirling thoughtlessly gathering strength

growing ample numbers tornadoes won't disturb

scattering flowers with seed forward in time

Where the field of starlight, dry lines distant

living terms breathing for-themselves

transferring continua of actualized genes

forms with decisive ideas

The fate of mud is of all things concerned

with compact shedding structure dissolving

to entropy's average shape

of an unshaped soundless medium

The potter works

purity of purpose

vessels of wrath

assemblies of grace

To be and not to be with a million questions

remaining like a life of ideas finding new expressions

parallelism of Aristotelian successions

bugs and man each actualizing life

A realm of forms encased in life itself

contrasting with a realm of forms of ideas

flowing in temporal beingness

space-time actualizing all-too-human uncertainty

With the end of speculation

a cosmic microwave cloud of beginning

c.m.b. pattern to Earth,

distant and remote in time

Metaphysic of forms of ideas abstracting

shapes and logic of the for-itself

and the cloud of unknowing

flowing after the word to start

Uttered light into darkness

being and becoming

concentrates of ideas

actualized as thoughts of Spirit

In faith Jacob's ladder of transformation,

ideates a Platonic, temporal realm of forms

given themselves unto eternal spirit

leaving the mud for Jesus Christ.
