He did not have his sea legs 😂…but hot diggidy..with Project 2025 and ready swarm legion…he gonna make your dreams come true , day one. Heck , even with a Matt Gaetz -type sprinkled here and there! 
Gaetz tried suing ethics committee to block release of naughty boy report…but couldn’t even get the basics right so his court filing got tossed before it could even be considered.

Ahh, more gaslighting from the less and less respected MSM.  I do love the bogey man Project 2025.  I do love the fact that you have already convicted Gaetz even though good old Merrick Garland found no evidence to proceed with a prosecution.  Besides, we already know Gaetz is a scoundrel, he has little to no morals (reminds me of Teddy Kennedy), and he shafted the people of his district by running again, winning by a wide margin, and then immediately resigning.  I agree, Trump should have never even considered him, but hey, like most in DC, Trump is a narcissist.

Only question I ask myself is What the Fudge ! is going on with all the bystanders who “watched” passively. Including idiot who filmed and narrated on his phone , instead of trying to help.

 

Human cruelty, be it rooted in mental illness or pure evil …knows no bounds and being sick or deranged does require immigration status.

Coroner ‘never’ saw ‘homicide’ scene like Lacey Fletcher, woman found ‘melted’ to couch: ‘It still bothers me today’

The coroner called to examine Lacey Fletcher after her body was found “melted” in a waste-filled crater in her family’s couch has “never seen a homicide like this” — and is still disturbed by what he saw.

Fletcher, 36, was found covered in urine and feces and “fused” to the maggot-ridden couch at her parents’ East Feliciana, La., home in January 2022 — and this week, Sheila and Clay Fletcher pleaded no contest to manslaughter over her horrifying death.

Yes, I have read the Penny effect on Good Samaritans. Personally, I agree with the jury’s verdict: Not Guilty.

 

That said, the fellow who died was having a mental episode . He was schizophrenic, homeless and long arrest record

..witnesses in link below recount him saying he is “ hungry ..” and will do anything ..even “ go to Riker’s”. 

 

A while back, an acquaintance who made a modest living by being an informal mobile mechanic. Tall , white man with some bone aches he laughed off as he dropped to the ground to get under the hood. 
 

He had a small beat up pick up truck and would show up on your driveway , or parking lot if one was stranded and tackle anything from alternator, brake , suspension..

 

I learned he was a veteran and had worked as a mechanic..on the Humvees . He once showed up with his 8 year old son and so I learned that after a long struggle with “ life” he managed to convince family court to grant him sole custody. ..and proudly showed me the big envelope with all the Achievement and Treatment Certificates , letters that persuaded that family court Judge . 
‘He was in the process of fighting for a second, younger child from a different relationship.

 

Out of the blue, I got a call from an unknown woman.  It was his current girlfriend. She pleaded with me to help as I lived close to the hospital he was at.
Apparently he had lost his apartment, had been sleeping in his broken down truck . He missed his VA medical appointments , as VA hospital was over 50 miles away.
 

I got through by phone and briefly spoke with him…he was shouting he was hungry  and was pulling out his IV. 
 

Hospital said he was “ belligerent “ and they told him they are calling the police . He walked out of the hospital…no phone, no car, no money and it’s a cold-rainy late night. 
 

Hospital confirmed his blood tests were clean..negative for street /prescription drugs . ..

‘I called the police and pleaded with them to at least help locate him. A sympathetic officer, a veteran himself , promised to try. 
 

I drove out towards ..the vacant land  where girlfriend described he kept his truck …I saw him walking. There was no talking to him ..he disappeared in the dark. He was railing at the hospital for not giving him food, four letter word Police  and me..and disoriented 
 

The officer finally showed up…but he didn’t want to off-road with the cruiser so he left. 

I left . It rained nonstop that night. A few weeks later, the pandemic hit.
‘I don’t know what happened to this fellow…or his 2 young boys. ..but I know there was no one I could call to help him.

So why do you ask the question as to why passersby’s did nothing?  Democrat progressive ideals dictate people should not help, and NYC is ground zero for that.  Heck, some guy went on a stabbing spree in several areas of the city, and people, mostly Democrats or others scared of prosecution ignored him.
