I can’t wait until you do this exchange…. Or I should say… OMG I hope you do this exchange!
Strzok has this pulling up of his nose in this disgust/scowl attitude that I feel needs to be swiped off!

Theirs one thing you can’t hide, it’s when your crippled inside. ‘john lennon’. Your insight and delivery is hilariously inspiring and so fundamentally necessary. Have recommended your work to colleagues and friends and family. Cheers Will.
This video was recorded a long time ago? I thought it was recent.

Dang! Painful to watch. These people needed some food to start flinging at each other! What about the word “NO” did Bill not understand?? Brave lady board member so cool under pressure!! On the other hand, Notice the lady in front of the board with her back to the camera. She was about to disappear under her desk. Bless her. ?

wow!! this was awesome! love your humor and insight! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing the City Council meeting of Dysfunction Junction. Luckily I live in a town that is an island of sanity in a state that is run even worse than that board. It should be dissolved and split up between Wisconsin, Iowa, Indiana and Missouri, and Cook County sold to the Red Chinese to help pay our national debt.
I attend quite a few local town and county government meetings and this village of Carpentersville in Illinois is really not all that atypical.
Sure, this one clip is particularly wacky. But you’re going to get those moments. Someone posted a whole slew (though not in their entirety) of this village’s meetings in this 2009 time period and I went through a few of them out of curiosity. El Presidente doesn’t always get his way and (surprisingly enough) there are some lucid moments of rational behavior from this maniac. The bottom line is that these meetings show that the true power is in the people–if only they would exercise it! One of the typical aspects of this meeting is the lack of citizenry that show up and speak. The ones that do usually insist on saying their piece no matter how badly they ramble or how much El Presidente tries to shut them down. You usually are allowed your full 5 min. to speak (we get 3) and you should not be denied. If at least 200-300 would line up to say their piece at any one of these given sessions, then I truly believe it would change things. Also, if more than your typical 10-15% would show up to the polls, that would help too. These maniacs prey (and thrive mightily) on pervasive public apathy.
Thanks your research was helpful. ? Problem is, when “El Presidente” is capable of making implied threats against the lives of fellow board members, any incidents of normalcy is completely overshadowed. “One ‘awh s—t,’ wipes out a whole slew of ‘at-a-boys.’”
With all due respect, let’s not make this video into something it is not. I don’t think any threats were made against the life of another board member. What was offered was an insult; one of many that are throw at each other by this board quite regularly if you watch the videos. If a life threat was made that would have been actionable from a criminal law perspective. I’ve never seen a criminal charge based on an “implied” threat. Can you cite one?
The guy is a fat, spoiled, wife-abusing psychopathic jerk who threatens to kill people who don’t let him have his way. Any more questions?

I wasn’t sure what to expect, but that was fun. It’s more like a shocking case of adult petulance than gaslighting, but entertaining nonetheless. And you are correct, it did get better. Wow.
I’m watching the FBI agent Peter Strock (sp?) testify openly before Congress. I think about my youth when on the school’s fencing team, using foils. In this case our FBI agent is using words as his foil. He parries well and shows a “love” for this sport, his sport of showing how smart and slippery he can be with language. His one major speech that received applause from those present in the gallery reminded me of prior matches in my youth.
However, not all his time talking was used as fencing nor practice and it is here, in my opinion where the web’s author should and most likely will focus her attention.
My conclusion is that this FBI agent is not as smooth as he pretends nor thinks he is. I will await our author’s critique.

This video really teaches that politicians don’t become angels once you put them in a position of power. If people are so unruly, so self-serving and just generally BAD that they need someone in charge, well then putting one person or a group of people in power can hardly be expected to help things. Then you’ll just have selfish people telling other selfish people what to do! Faith in government is like this crazy abusive religion that we follow as a nation. It doesn’t work, but we aren’t bold enough or awake enough yet to embrace liberty.

Here is my favorite. Note the bulging temples, clenched jaw, squinting eyes, and pursed lips. This is one mean junk yard dog who is ready and willing to kill.
Nothin but a cowardly wimpy bully…narcissistic adulterer….goofy-acting liar!!!

This is like the student who is called out for bad behavior, and then says “well so-and-so cheated on the test last week, and said I was ugly.” Smearing the other kid, and NOTHING to do with the situation at hand. Same thing, but I always say a petulant child is bad, but a petulant adult is dangerous. This man is really scary, because he will NOT give up, smears all around him, and is beyond a bully – he is totally abusive. I sure hope they got HIM off the board. And where is this town? Agh! Oh, and LOVED the analysis!
You’re right. He is scary. He is dangerous. He’s petulant. He’s a local…… Goodfella.

If this is how all government works, no wonder we’re stagnant. What a collection of barriers we’ve accumulated. It seems like gov-speak came about due to the ‘cya’ initiative.
Lol it would seem that at some point during that meeting someone on the board would just start laughing out loud at the sheer ridiculousness of what was happening!!?

Strzok is a quintessential bully with an arrogance that will stop at nothing.

P.S. I love that song?
wel,, Seeing this , If I were a citizen of that community , I would definitely not be re electing the president of that board.
After a four-year term, he lost to someone who was barely even campaigning.

I stumbled across this last week. then watched several of this child’s meetings. I could not believe it.

I think I’d just go home. “Well, we’re going home, we’ll check on you next week to see if you got your second.”
