In late 2022, just after the US mid-term elections, a billionaire cabal gathered in Florida to plot out Donald Trump’s return to power.

These mega/MAGA autocrats were at last ready to move their radically enhanced coup corps far beyond Trump’s shocking 2020 electoral defeat and the failure of the January 6 attack.

They met in a hidden high tech center deep in the bowels of Mar-a-Lago, with ample access to the secret documents the president-in-exile provided for their use.

A top Trump operative---possibly Steve Bannon---convened the cabal in person.  Vladimir Putin, Bibi Netanyahu and Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, were summoned by zoom. 

They were joined by heads of state, rightist hundred-billionaires, Agency spooks, snarling hit men. 

The conspirators used AI to scramble their voices.

But a shadowy mole…who has since “committed suicide”…slipped the proceedings onto the internet. 

Other meetings have followed in total secrecy.

The New York Times coverage of the Israeli carnage in Gaza, like that of other mainstream US media, is a disgrace to journalism. 

 This assertion should not surprise anyone. US media is driven neither by facts nor morality, but by agendas, calculating and power-hungry. The humanity of 120 thousand dead and wounded Palestinians because of the Israeli genocide in Gaza is simply not part of that agenda. 

 In a report - based on a leaked memo from the New York Times - the Intercept found out that the so-called US newspaper of record has been feeding its journalists with frequently updated 'guidelines' on what words to use, or not use, when describing the horrific Israeli mass slaughter in the Gaza Strip, starting on October 7.

Parks

Columbus is a massive flat concrete and asphalt pancake on vast prairie land with one million new residents projected by 2050. Building new Metro Parks is essential to give the community more things to do and connect them to nature.

The good news is two new Metro Parks on the Far South Side are scheduled to open at the end of this year.

Under construction behind the Great Southern Shopping Center is the Great Southern Metro Park on the banks of the Scioto River. A bike trail down the river will connect to downtown. The Bank Run Metro Park was mapped out close to Big Walnut Creek within the Village of Lockbourne near several large dormant quarries now filled with rainwater once owned by Shelly and Sands Inc., a mining company.

Unfortunately, the two new parks may have some bad news baggage as well. Because a few Metro Park fans are wondering: Will the parks have a massive “mixed used” property connected or even in the park itself?

Hands shaking under rose DSA Logo

Wednesday, April 18, 2pm
Franklin County Government Center, Michael J. Dorrian Building, 369 S. High St., first floor, meeting room A

Pack the room at the Franklin County Treasurer Investment Advisory Committee Meeting. Franklin County currently holds at least $32 million in Israeli bonds purchased by Treasurer Cheryl Brooks Sullivan. These bonds tie up millions of dollars that should be spent meeting the needs of Franklin County’s residents. Instead, our money is helping Israel wage its genocidal war against the people of occupied Palestine.

Hosted by Columbus DSA [Democratic Socialists of America] and Jewish Voice for Peace Central Ohio.
