Locally Essential….
The Southern Tier of NYS has been quietly dedicated to public safety. Politicians deserve to be monitored by the electorate in order that excellence of local governance continues. Both of Governor Cuomo and Jason Garner have done their best in the extraordinary Covid-19 pandemic that hit NYS so hard. The proof is in the pudding as to results. One believes NY’ers will continue in responsible personal actions.

He says his upset over Engel came down to mobilizing people who are “disenfranchised and ignored” by the political establishment. “We didn’t just target those who consistently vote in primaries. We targeted everyone,” he says. Looking forward, he describes his support for Palestine, a rent strike and police accountability. — end of democracynow info — -
A system change away from capitalism and centralization is the answer to our propensity to demand infinite growth with finite resources.

Fossil fuel corporations embrace these phony pricing schemes because they know that these policies only entrench their existence.

What could be the reason for the bubble around Democratic and Republican as pertains to debates? This is censoring away information crucial to We The People in making informed choices for elections. If the policies of Bernie Sanders or Howie Hawkins were unworthy to be heard by the electorate, the Democratic and Republican organization at www.debates.org would be happy to expose their Capitalist candidates Biden and Trump to such a debate, because policies would be apparent in comparison. A Free Press would be essential in a democratic (small d) Constitutional republic. Instead we have www.debates.org and the state-run/corporate-owned Mainstream Media presenting Democratic campaigners as reporters and Republican campaigners as reporters, on their respective cable channels.
One finds the demonizing from the Red Team media, to promote Supremacy of a hue to be as dangerous as the demonizing from the Blue Team as they seem to attempt to match divisive rhetoric with divisive rhetoric, by blaming…………..especially women.
Here’s the deal. One doesn’t wish to paint one sex with the same brush, but statistically we will probably find more violence and physical aggression from males than from females. Stalking is a strategy used by some men to violate the space of women. Coupled with propensities toward violence and physical aggression, these traits are tools of patriarchy. Patriarchy is used to maintain control, such as in capitalistic hierarchical culture.
One points out specifically the Trump helicopter act when debating Hillary Clinton, than any women must recognize as sub-dignified. We can do better.
So when, for example, men decide to make a statement by stalking a woman walking her dog in a park, to ensure she picks up the poop, from the woman’s perspective, this can be a life-threatening situation. Combine this with Team Blue talking heads sniffing out shortcomings of women, and the stage is set, once again, to shift blame upon females, when men find their control slipping. At this point, in patriarchy, women are expected to play their enabling part.
One might almost say this is a Republican strategist and/or Democratic strategist campaign process.
Locally in the Southern Tier, a woman is reportedly still hospitalized in critical condition when her peace officer spouse, demonstrated irritation.
Another story this morning is told about a woman missing from a military base, after having been ignored about claims of sexual harassment.
In fact, news about women who have been so abused, are not sparse. — — -http://womenandpolicing.com/violenceFS.asp — It is diabolical to use fear and intimidation by either of Team Red or Team Blue, to divide and conquer We The People, byway of MSM talking heads paid to do so by their respectively-supported political Party..
The only reason for these empty insinuations must be to stir the pot of Republican Base and/or Democratic Base. If, for example, debates would include third-Party candidates, who actually develop serious policies by which to govern, rather than playing personalities, the electorate could make better choices.

For example, how would Biden and Trump respond to the Bernie Sanders proposal, and why has the Democratic Base chosen to vote against his policies? — —
re than 60 progressive advocacy groups representing millions of members across the U.S. are pressuring senators to pass an amendment led by Sen. Bernie Sanders that would cut the proposed Pentagon budget by 10% and redirect the $74 billion in savings toward funding healthcare, education, jobs, and housing in impoverished and neglected communities.

Together, we’ll explore themes around the intersection of climate and racial justice, and discuss what independence from fossil fuels, police brutality, corporate control of our government, and systemic oppression looks like.
We hope you’ll tune in! And please be sure to RSVP and invite your friends to join as well. The rally will be streamed across our social media platforms.

Demand that The League of Women Voters again host political debates. — https://www.lwv.org/
https://www.debates.org/ is the Democratic corporation and Republican corporation collaboration that has monopolized into censorship, 3rd-Party candidates, pertaining to political debate. https://www.debates.org/media/---Demand open discussion by emailing media@debates.org.
For further inquiries, please contact the Commission on Presidential Debates at media@debates.org or by phone at (202) 872–1020.
More information about each of the 2020 general election debates can be found at the following links:
First presidential debate:
Tuesday, September 29, 2020
University of Notre Dame
https://debate.nd.edu/
Suppression begins with the political debates that exclude 3rd-Party candidates. Included in the Democratic and Republican Presidential Debate, should be Green Party Presidential candidate Howie Hawkins, who actually has public policies to discuss. Excluding one with actual plans in place, will guarantee a Reality-Show Presidential Debate stand-up comedy routine, if the debaters are Biden and Trump.
One has come to realize the extent of the censorship of Speech in the USA pertaining to debate restrictions. This seems to be the reason Independent Party Presidential candidate has attempted to champion the voices of the majority of voters outside of Democratic Party domination, by running for President in the Democratic Party.
However going forward, the key will be to demand Free Speech in Presidential debates, along with other political races across the nation. If we do not demand this freedom of Speech, our elections will remain as laughable as the elections of the Former USSR in which one candidate was presented for whom to vote.

And many of the most non-Establishment voters are in the Green Party.

Lost in the fog of political corruption over several decades, is the fact that the Presidential debates were once in the capable hands of the League of Women Voters — --https://www.lwv.org/newsroom/press-releases/league-refuses-help-perpetrate-fraud----Most objectionable to the League, Neuman said, were conditions in the agreement that gave the campaigns unprecedented control over the proceedings. Neuman called “outrageous” the campaigns’ demands that they control the selection of questioners, the composition of the audience, hall access for the press and other issues.
“The campaigns’ agreement is a closed-door masterpiece,” Neuman said. “Never in the history of the League of Women Voters have two candidates’ organizations come to us with such stringent, unyielding and self-serving demands.”
Neuman said she and the League regretted that the American people have had no real opportunities to judge the presidential nominees outside of campaign-controlled environments.

https://straty.com/controlling-outcomes-controlling-table-stakes/---After studying the election process in 1985, the bipartisan National Commission on Elections recommended “turning over the sponsorship of Presidential debates to the two major parties”. The CPD was established in 1987 by the chairmen of the Democratic and Republican Parties to “take control of the Presidential debates”. The commission was staffed by members from the two parties and chaired by the heads of the Democratic and Republican parties… (wikipedia)

https://www.debates.org/---The Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) was established in 1987 to ensure, for the benefit of the American electorate, that general election debates between or among the leading candidates for the offices of President and Vice President of the United States are a permanent part of the electoral process. CPD’s primary purpose is to sponsor and produce the quadrennial general election debates and to undertake research and educational activities relating to the debates. The organization, which is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, 501(c)(3) corporation, sponsored all of the presidential debates in 1988, 1992, 1996, 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, and 2016

This also filters out any other than Democratic Establishment and Republican Establishment views. This means We The People have nothing to say in our own governance.
Consider the large number of voters who do not embrace the policies of either of the Democratic Establishment or Republican Establishment, and the fact that the Democratic Establishment and Republican Establishment have swindled the American electorate out of unbiased information directly from possible Presidential choices; often outside of the Capitalist Party D&R. Since these disgusting events in the ‘80’s, state-run/corporate-owned MSM has consistently indoctrinated We The People into accepting the falsehood that “we are a 2-Party system”. This has had the effect of rending illegitimate, the deeply legitimate tradition of free, clean, and fair elections.
In other words, politicians are now choosing their voters, rather than voters choosing their politicians.
Acting on the human frailty of ignorance combined with arrogance, and using as an example the Democratic Establishment, one recognizes what is called a Democratic Base that believes in their right to dictate to others, their voting choices.
