Critical Thinking and Reasoning

  [August 6, 2024 (15:30)] Another relatively busy news day in the critical thinking and reasoning newsroom, critical thinkers, First, we have the delay of the Trump sentencing on the DA Alvin Brag's conviction of the 34 counts against the former president in a NY District Court; accordingly, I am still trying to unpack the complexities in this decision; in other words, it looks as if Trump had sought relief from the lower court petitioning NY Supreme Court Justice, Juan Merchan.

I like it and will consider it a Drake Davis-ism!  EPOCH TIMES: JUDGE DELAYS TRUMP SENTENCING AFTER NOVEMBER ELECTION POLITICO:  TRUMP HAS HAD REMARKABLE SUCCESS WITH DELAYS IF LOSES DAY OF RECKONING ABC: FORMER PRES BEEN TRYING

  [AUGUST 31, 2024 (23:00)] Hi there critical thinkers, leading with a local story, While I headed out after chores and some shopping, Geary Blvd at Kearney [about 4:30 PM] was shut down, with crime tape everywhere, and no less than ten SFPD squad cars. Because of the lack of professional staffing or an ability to call reporters and supporting personnel to pull-off a broadcast or streaming production, we are just finding out what transpired 7-hours-ago.  To be fair, KCBS 740/106.9 had the story in the 7PM hour KTVU 2: 49' er Stable After Attempted Robbery in Union Square  [neighborhood] It is a City that multiple self-defense tools need to be close at hand, police cruise around while rarely you see anyone arrested or in custody, crazed lunatics approach tourists with flailing arms--yelling and screaming-- frightening even seasoned locals, such as myself. Meanwhile, do nothing DA, Brooke Jenkins, and Mayor, London Breed, talk of ". . .not tolerating violence."   . . .real

  [AUGUST 27, 2024 (15:00 PDT)] Special Prosecutor Jack Smith in Washington      Image Credit: Saul Loeb AFP/Getty Images Another fairly busy newscycle with a 4-count Trump Indictment leading, CBS NEWS:  SMITH REINDICTS WITH NARROWER SET OF ACCUSATIONS AFTER SCOTUS DECISION POLITICO:  36 Pg INDICTMENT IN ELECTION SUBVERSION CASE BROUGHT BY SC JACK SMITH I have only skimmed the two lengthy stories and promise to get into the weeds on the story which broke less than two-hours-ago; apparently, double jeopardy does not apply in pressing charges--only acquittals. That would be my educated guess, anyway Meanwhile on the West Cannot Wait to Blow Up the World Front Reuters: Russian PM Sergei Lavrov Warns West of Further Escalations "We are now confirming once again that playing with fire - and they are like small children playing with matches - is a very dangerous thing for grown-up uncles and aunts who are entrusted with nuclear weapons in one or another Western country," Lavrov to

  [August 24, 2024 (11:30)] Just a quick check-in on a story I meant to get to the other day. USNI News: Navy Could Sideline 17 Support Ships Due to Manpower Issues Military Sealift Command fleet replenishment oiler USNS Yukon (T-AO-202) gives fuel to the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) while the Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Russell (DDG-59) sails alongside during a replenishment-at-sea, March 12, 2024.
