Words of Tracy Penokie
sad picture for him.
I watched a documentary on him yesterday. Actually trying to give him a chance to see if we really are making him to be the worst, and yepppp. He is! Trump:: An American Dream is a must watch for anyone who supports, or is trying to see the good in this arrogant, and selfish human being.
Here is a list of environmental rules his fuck ass is reversing. Why??? What is the justification for this? What is the justification for him taking away rez land from it's rightful owners? Where is the justification in allowing pipelines to go through rez lands?
This scum bag actually told his first wife, after bearing his children.. He didn't want to be w a woman who has HAD CHILDREN!!! He faked like he was his own PR person at one time What kind of mentality does it take for someone to do that??
I'm done trying to give him a chance. My disgust is warranted for. Everything this man does is motivated by the feeling of power. I can never fuck w that. Yess. Trump IS the piece of shit he's painted out to be. No. That doesn't mean I support the Democratic party or any other politician. It simply means I am completely and utterly disgusted w him."

Sky U. White Sad and Angry
"This story is not only sad but it also makes me angry. I got involved in community organizing after the murder of Trayvon Martin. I also realized that it was the State Atty in that case who chose to delay filing charges against Zimmerman. The State Attorney is an ELECTED position and We MUST get involved in LOCAL ELECTIONS! The impact on black/brown lives at a time when we are pushing for criminal justice reform is immense. Know who your local elected officials are and know where they stand on the issues that directly affect your community!" Sky U. White

Florida GOP continues to block adoption of ERA
Florida lawmakers have not voted on the ERA since 1982, when the House narrowly passed it and the Senate narrowly did not. This year, the Republican-led Legislature refused to hold any hearings on the proposed amendment, although numerous legislators sponsored pro-ERA and equal-pay bills. HERE

Monica Racy, 21, remains free on $24,000 following her arrest April 17 on a multitude of drug charges after a traffic stop in Sumter County.
In a lengthy letter to Villages-News.com, Racy claims the drugs found in the vehicle were not hers and she was “in the wrong place and the wrong time.”
She claimed the news coverage of her arrest prompted her termination from her job at USF. HERE

“Stogie Approved” Progressives for Office
Hello friends, I am writing this article to reinvigorate the desire for quality local candidates. Who do we have running in the Tampa Bay and Bennington areas who will stand up for the people?
First of all, what qualities are we looking for in candidates for local and state office? Specific platform positions, experience, character? We are certainly looking for an “all of the above” scenario. What does that look like? I will share a few candidates who I believe meet these criteria, and I hope to hear back from others regarding who should run for political office.
I admire Pat Kemp for her work on the Hillsborough County Commission. She has stood up for public transit options and medical cannabis access. I support her re-election.
I admire Gary Dolgin for his community activism. He has shown that he cares about the people and has received a wide variety of endorsements for his Circuit Court Judge campaign. I support his run.
I admire Dane Whitman for his work with local Vermont Democrats. Going from being a student at Bennington College to running for the Vermont House of Representatives is an exceptional transition, with leadership roles in between. I support his run.
Who else deserves spotlight as Stogie approved local and state candidates?
Stay groovy,
Asher

Florida Shit Sandwich
More than 2 million Floridians have now applied for unemployment benefits. Only a fraction of the applications have even been processed and even fewer workers have received payments.
---
Florida’s unemployment system was already terrible before the crisis and it has completely collapsed under pressure from COVID-19.

Even those close to current Republican Governor Ron DeSantis admit as much. One DeSantis advisor was quoted in the online magazine Politico as saying: “It’s a shit sandwich, and it was designed
that way by Scott.
that way by Scott.

It wasn’t about saving money. It was about making it harder for people to get benefits or keep benefits so that the unemployment numbers were low to give the governor something to brag about.” HERE

Florida Farmers are Selling Directly to Consumers
Last month, Florida farmers let countless tons of produce rot in their fields after the restaurants, theme parks and cruise lines they normally serve this time of year were suddenly closed due to nationwide quarantines.
This month, they are changing their business model, selling directly to the consumers who are doing a whole lot more home-cooking these days. HERE

Hank Scott of Mount Dora
During any other spring, he'd oversee an army of workers harvesting cucumbers and shipping truckloads to pickling companies along the East Coast. But the coronavirus pandemic has closed or crippled the businesses where his produce would end up. So instead, Scott, invited volunteer pickers to glean as much produce as they could and donate it to nearby
food banks. HERE
