They're made for tv actors. Trump picked them because they look good on scripted tv. Was just having a conversation and told the individual the same thing that tripped them up in 45 will trip them up in 47.... "*time*".

News to the world, "indicted" and "a **high** ranking politician*"

Lol. Still in dreamland.

Trump will be great for the Bahamas! Right? That's what the Trump supporters say.

I said yesterday, I dont know if the drastic actions taken were called for, but certainly something had to be done to put a stop to the undemocratic approach of the Speaker. It is distasteful to the extreme the way in which she intentionally, and with seeming, malice silences the opposition. This is not the way, it is unconstitutional. And to point to "rules" is a cop out. Rules are misused almost every day in organizations in this country to punish persons out of favour with power, even when power is misguided. Brave Davis and Chester Cooper encourage her and have led the entire country down this unproductive path.

But this is what persons without leadership skills do, they ignore the real issues and make it all about the individuals pointing the issues out.

**The country is in an economic crisis and an integrity crisis. A US indictment has implicated a *high ranking politician* in an act of what could be considered treason. Cocaine and guns using police officers as drug mules and govt planes as transport???** And now without explaining how we got to this place of noone knowing anything, we get a PR stunt of a commissioner replacement with no assurance that it actually addresses the problem. If noone has noticed, drug crime in Freeport including murder has been increasing over the last few years. **The *high ranking politician* is still in place, in a position of power, giving orders to subordinates and using our country's resources to do God knows what manner of evil *for the love of money* **.

I just mentioned the mace toss 2 or 3 days ago in response to Licoln Bain's antics.

My assessment at that time was basically that Bain was no Linding Pindling and is all about drama and youtube content generation.

I do not like what the govt is doing in attempting to silence the opposition, it is distasteful to the extreme. I've also said I want to hear the FNM say that they will allow the opposition to have a voice.

I dont know if this drastic of an action was required but I am happy that the govt side was not able to continue with their undemocratic action. My question is whether going forward we will see the mace out the window at least once every five years...

I read the resume of Clayton Fernander listed on the police website and compared to that of Shanta Knowles.

I see no difference. I need to know what qualifies someone to be competent commissioner

With all the courses listed for the former Commissioner, with a highlight on 30years of investigative experience he had no inkling that anything on the scale of this massive intelligence breech was happening right in his department... Why? What qualities didnt he have? An analytical mind? A true understanding of policy and protocol implementation above knowing the words and having a completed course checkmark? I myself kept asking, where all this cocaine going? What was a 30year investigator asking? Mrs Knowles has completed the same training courses, same investigative experience. Did she pose questions to the commissioner stating something was wrong or was she in the dark as well? We need assurance that she (or whomever) is different. We cant wait another 3 years to see if someone learns on the job.

What are we doing in our planning to get a different result? Or, does a *high ranking politician* want more of the same?

I believe that the planet is warming.

However, I dont believe every bad weather event, heavy rainfall or high temperature we call climate change is actually a climate change effect.

I recall a flood event on Exuma, If I remember it was attributed to climate change, it showed a car in front of a house with water up to the car windows.. But when you referenced another pic in the series, you saw the house next door situated on a rise on completely dry land, the house under water was in a bowl and was aldo adjacent to a body of water.

So my belief is that analysis should always come before a declaration of climate change. People had bad weather from the beginning of time, before fossil fuels, that wasnt climate change. It was bad weather. Hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, fires, wild animal displacement...etc

Secondly Nassau, Andros, Freeport and Abaco are to this day suffering the effects of disasters that have nothing to do with climate change, simply bad actors polluting in the course of operation with no cleanup efforts and the govt does nothing because rich investors are out of bounds.

A few months ago somebody raised the alarm about environmental destruction happening on Athol Island, which in the report was said to be a small island that protects Eastern Nassau from hurricane waves. This destruction was permitted. FOCOL currently has a proposal to plant an LNG pipeline through protected environmental wetlands, the PM praised the plan.

So when I see these *high ranking politicians* begging for millions of dollars for the climate fight, I dont believe it. I've no doubt they want the money and every doubt that any significant portion of money received will actually be used on climate issues.

And just like the US knew what Curtis was into and werent fooled by an honourable uniform, the intl people know our every environmental desecration. They're not fooled

Will PBB give itself a Road Traffic contract? Henfield couldnt jump any faster. Something is on the other side of that door that keeps everybody silent, well fed and fat (is there an Inspector uniform size under 5XL?), and with post win rapid onset *do good* dementia

I'm doubtful. When will the practice of giving beaches and parks contracts to constituents for no equal valued service end? Shenandon Cartwright said ~"*this is how things work, everybody does it*", are we to expect more of the same? When will we stop normalizing what we can clearing see is not ethical practice? Will the opposition be allowed a voice when the FNM is in power? Will any steps be taken to immediately rescind the right to Bahamian Citizenship for illegal immigrants born in the bahsmas? This is the next *clearly visible to everybody* scandal about to explode. With extortion fees paid by illegal immigrants for passage and identity services a huge source of income to somebody with great power, or else theyd do something about it.
