Coatesville City Council, in a 4/3 decision, voted to stop construction of the renovations to Coatesville City Hall

There was a dispute over hiring local (black) construction contractors.

If the City of Coatesville Administration follows the vote of Coatesville City Council the City will be under breach of contract.

Is this a hint of things to come?
"PROJECT DESCRIPTION
As the Project and Construction Manager for the Coatesville City Hall renovation, Boyle is overseeing 9,700 SF of interior renovations and a 3,900 SF, second floor addition. Phase One of this project includes selective demolition of the existing 9,730 SF Main Floor and fitting out 3,600 SF for a new District Court and the remaining 6,130 SF for City Administration offices and a Public Meeting Room.

My Uncle Fred participated in a violent Antifa action against Nazis on June 6, 1944



My Uncle Fred Pitcherella was a combat engineer. He landed on Omaha Beach in Normandy.

My children watched Uncle Fred place maggots on an open sore on his foot to eat away dead flesh.

Constantly under fire, he fought across France in wet boots. He dried his feet three months after landing in Normandy.  He was left with a fungus infection that lasted until he died.

I wonder what Uncle Fred would think of President Trump’s plans for a Nazi America.

"Following his appointment as chancellor by President Paul von Hindenburg on January 30, 1933, Adolf Hitler began laying the foundations of the Nazi state. Guided by racist and authoritarian principles, the Nazis eliminated individual freedoms and pronounced the creation of a Volk Community (Volksgemeinschaft)—a society which would, in theory, transcend class and religious differences."

FOUNDATIONS OF THE NAZI STATE


Trump and Bannon have a plan much like Hitlers plan to take over German politics. 
It's briefly outlined in this Huffington Post article:


WASHINGTON — Let’s be clear about what President Donald Trump was up to Tuesday during his press conference in Trump Tower, and what his longer-range plan is for surviving, if not prospering, in the White House for at least four years. 

Speaking publicly in the family fortress in the wake of the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, he wasn’t trying to convince anyone of the facts. There could be no dispute about them if you saw, say, the Vice video of hideous neo-Nazis, KKK members, generic white supremacists and rancid anti-Semites in the streets carrying torches and chanting “Jews will not replace.” 

No, the president was doing something else: trolling the media, deliberately goading reporters he knew were waiting for him in his echoing marble lobby. He basked in their urgent outrage and determined focus on Charlottesville. He had scripted himself as the alt-right’s Daniel in a “fake news” lion’s den of his own devising. 
Was he upset by the resulting headline and denunciations from the likes of the former presidents Bush, father and son? Hardly. He had sought them. In fact, word on Wednesday was that Trump had been in a good, almost celebratory, mood Tuesday after the confrontation he’d created. He had unleashed himself, perhaps once and for all. He was in the fight, and the fight is all.  

Donald Trump seems perfectly willing to destroy the country to maintain his own power. 
More broadly and big-picture, look for more of the same. Having risen to power by dividing the country, his party leadership and even, at times, his own campaign team, his aim now is to divide or discredit any institution, tradition or group in his way. 

Donald Trump seems perfectly willing to destroy the country to maintain his own power. He is racing to undermine the federal political system — if not all American public life — before still-independent forces (for now, the federal courts, the press and Congress) undermine him. 

The goal, as always with Trump, is to win amid the chaos he sows, to be the last man standing in rubble. And “winning” is rapidly being reduced to the raw, basic terms he prefers: brute survival. With a record-setting low approval rating, world crises everywhere and a special counsel on his tail, the main victory he can hope for is staying in office. 

It’s not only an emotional imperative for Trump, it’s a deliberate ― and thus far successful ― strategy.  

I am told by lawyers familiar with special counsel Robert Mueller’s methods and those of similar investigations that Mueller almost certainly obtained the president’s federal tax returns long ago. Whether Trump knows that directly or not, he has to assume it — and be driven wild by it. The counsel also has assembled an industrial-strength team of experts in international money-laundering, criminal tax fraud and forensic accounting.   

So the survival urge is more urgent. 

How does he do it? Here is some of what’s ahead:  

More white-right protests

Local government / law enforcement needs to prepare for extremist violence

“It’s easy to criticize, but I can tell you this, 80% of the people here had semiautomatic weapons," McAuliffe said.

In the VICE News video below notice how many, mostly concealed, weapons Christopher Cantwell carried at the Charlottesville, “Rally”: 

AK-47 - Kel-Tec P3AT - .380 ACP - Glock 19, 9millimeter - Ruger LC9, also 9 millimeter - knife - a second back up AK - 47. 





They are here in Chester County, PA.  Local Police Departments need to be prepared for them. 
Local residents need to add extremist behavior to their "street smarts." If shooting starts fall to the ground.

"Residents may not have noticed them, but they were here when they set off pipe bombs, test-fired machine guns and taught bomb-making classes. 
They blended right in. 
"They look like us. They sound like us. They are us," said Assistant U.S. Attorney Thomas P. Hogan Jr., assigned to coordinate investigations and prosecute cases with the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force. 
Before international terrorists took the spotlight, there were men like Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh, a domestic terrorist executed by lethal injection on June 11, 2001, for the attack that killed 168 people and wounded hundreds more. 
"To effectively combat terrorism, whether international or domestic, what you need are human sources -- spies, informants," explained Hogan. "They need to penetrate into the terrorist organization on a long-term basis." 
Obtaining such inside information was critical in convicting David Wayne Hull -- a self-declared Imperial Wizard of the White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan who operated a "cell" in western Chester County -- of a number of weapons charges, witness tampering and a charge of instructing others how to use a pipe bomb in furtherance of a federal crime. 
Hull, 41, of Washington County, was found guilty of seven of 10 charges after a trial in May. The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Margaret Picking. Hull was defended by W. Penn Hackney."

The Republican Party Nazi/Confederate racist voter base exists in Chester County, PA

I've been warning about these people since 2005.

They stealthy installed a mostly black Coatesville City Council that was ignorant of the racist libertarian fascist origins of the Saha "Save our Farm" campaign. The purpose of Pat Seller's "Save our (Saha) Farm" campaign was ending the revitalization of Coatesville and bankrupting the City of Coatesville.



The John Birch Society believes revitalization efforts like the City of Coatesville had are part of a vast "New World Order" conspiracy to take over the United States.

Right wing extremism in Chester County is partly what this blog is about:
"Public Corruption in Chester County, PA 
I believe an unlikely mix of alleged drug trafficking related politicos and alleged white nationalist related politicos united to elect the infamous “Bloc of Four” in the abysmal voter turnout election of 2005. During their four year term the drug business was good again and white nationalists used Coatesville as an example on white supremacist websites like “Stormfront”. Strong community organization and support from law enforcement, in particular Chester County District Attorney Joseph W. Carroll has begun to turn our community around. The Chester County drug trafficking that I believe centers on Coatesville continues and I believe we still have public officials in place that profit from the drug sales. But the people here are amazing and continue to work against the odds to make Coatesville a good place to live."

Would an attack on North Korea also be an attack on Russia’s Pacific Fleet in Vladivostok?

Somehow missing from discussions about Trump/North Korea is that Vladivostok & Russia's Pacific Fleet is under 100 miles from North Korea. 

 Vladivostok
https://www.google.com/maps/@40.0867156,131.0518485,6z
Is it possible to attack North Korea and not also attack Russia's Pacific Fleet?





Russian Boomers are likely to be in easy range of the East, West Coasts and Central United States right now. 

RSM-56 Bulava Missle has a range of about 6,000 miles each missile carries 6 nuclear reentry vehicles. 









Trump’s “fire and fury” is from Isaiah 66:15. It's directed to his Christian Nationalist Base

Isaiah 66:15 “For behold, the LORD will come in fire, and his chariots like the whirlwind, to render his anger in fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire."


“Jim Bakker, the disgraced former televangelist who reinvented himself as an End Times prepper pitchman following his time in prison, was among the dozens of evangelical leaders who were brought to the White House recently to meet with members of President Trump’s administration.



Bakker revealed on his program today that he and his wife Lori were in the White House on the day that Anthony Scaramucci was fired from his short stint as White House communications director, noting that it was not a coincidence that Scaramucci was let go at the moment when George O. Wood, who heads the General Council of the Assemblies of  God, spoke out against “unnecessary swearing” during a meeting with White House staff.

According to the Bakkers, Trump is eager to hear from right-wing Christian leaders and hopes to use them to spread his message to their audiences.

The president has asked for the pastors, the leaders of Christianity, to come and advise them,” Baker said, as Lori explained that “the reason for the meeting was so that he can get the group of Christian leaders that have a platform to share the truth of what’s really going on that you don’t get to hear in the media.”

Pastor Robert Jeffress says the Bible gives the government “the authority to do whatever.”

"These days, Bakker speaks openly of his inglorious past (while still denying his guilt), and how he immersed himself in the word of God while ensconced in a minimum-security lockup, which he credits for his miraculous “restoration” and highly unlikely comeback story. His recent benefactor and—by all appearances—business partner, Crawford, is said to have invited Bakker and his wife to broadcast from his Branson redoubt to thank Bakker for saving his once-troubled marriage. 

A savvy marketing move, as it turns out: Now a goodly chunk of Bakker’s endlessly looping show is devoted to promoting real estate rentals and sales at Morningside. Given its eerie similarity to the Heritage USA operation, one prays that Bakker’s involvement is closely vetted by lawyers and tax accountants to make sure he doesn’t again wind up doing crossword puzzles in an orange jumpsuit. 

His newfangled hybrid of religion and retail—which one might fancifully dub a mutant strain of PTL and QVC—may call into question what percentage of Bakker’s enterprise is tax-free (under section 501(c)(3) of the IRS code governing charitable organizations), and which is subject to federal tithing requirements. Although Bakker does occasionally tote and quote from the New Testament (which he also sells on his website, in various versions and color schemes), most of the broadcast is dedicated to hustling hard goods that can be actually bought for 50 cents on the dollar at competing survival-minded websites. 

And according to a retired IRS investigator, customers/parishioners who “donate” funds in exchange for Bakker’s giant buckets of “creamy potato soup” and the like can write off only the amount exceeding the fair market value of the goods received. Those hoping to deduct the entire $9,660 purchase of, say, the Time of Trouble Italiano Marinara Offer (that’s seven years or 7,728 servings of pasta) should look again at the fine print. As for the taste? Well, you can watch a professional chef prepare and (attempt to) eat the stuff here.
Then again, if you bought such stuff for 
less, you wouldn’t benefit from the daily parade of bug-eyed pessimists whom Bakker features on his show. One such guest, a rabbi named Jonathan Cahn, author of  The Mystery of the Shemitah, regularly discusses end-time events, while hosting guided tours of Israel on the side. And of course, DVDs of these boondoggle/pilgrimages are for sale on the show! The Bakkers are front and center, alongside right-wing kook Joseph Farah of World Net Daily (Cahn’s publisher). More recently, the couple are shown cavorting about St. Kitts and Nevis, where Bakker claims he’s in talks with the prime minister about erecting a shortwave transmitter. 

“We can’t do it alone, people,” Bakker repeatedly says in his plea for more money, citing the need for a hilltop chapel, a new grand piano or a home for pregnant teens. Thus, there’s always a new product on the hustings to breathlessly hype, followed by nightmare-inducing tales of the coming terrible times. (Bakker loves to bring up the dreaded “electromagnetic pulses,” which he promises will kill up to 95 percent of humanity, while destroying the grid and world financial system simultaneously.) Cream of potato soup, anyone?"
