On this re-release of Fermenting Opinions’ Episode 4 we discuss two topics: the congressional special election in Georgia between Ossoff and Handel–and what this signifies for both parties and the nation as a whole–as well as the trial of Officer Jeronimo Yanez in the killing of Philando Castile.
President Donald Trump, son-in-law Jared Kushner, and jeopardizing Israel in the glorious quest for world peace.... Network News anchor Scott Pelley and leftists everywhere versus those they deem to be their enemies, such as Congressional Majority Whip Steve Scalise. Officer Jeronimo Yanez versus Philando Castile, Diamond Reynolds, and her four-year-old daughter; and leftists lamely attempting to exploit this tragedy for their purposes of doing away with concealed carry of firearms, and pursuing disarmament of citizenry. Need to make concealed carry laws consistent, uniform, and nationwide. Good, godly citizens subjected to attempted prosecution for defending themselves and their families and loved ones from murderous destroyers.
Hosts Rania Khalek and Kevin Gosztola highlight some pretty awful and horrible stories on this week's show but not before talking about the Democratic Party's latest epic fail with Jon Ossoff's loss in Georgia. After discussing what happened with Ossoff, the show moves on to the United States and a network of torture chambers in Yemen. They cover developments in Syria, a Supreme Court decision against Arab or Muslim immigrants rounded up in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks, and the video of Officer Jeronimo Yanez killing Philando Castile. The show ends on a lighter note with a look at the Democratic challengers that have come forward to challenge Speaker of the House Paul Ryan in 2018.
Charlamagne awards the jury for the Philando Castile case Donkey of the Day for failing to find Officer Jeronimo Yanez guilty of any charges after his cold blooded murder of Philando on Facebook Live.
This weekend has been a mixed bag of bullshit. We're discussing the completion of two trials that on the surface seem unrelated, but after digging a bit, there are some threads that connect these two cases. The case first we discussed was the Philando Castile (murder) trial. Officer Jeronimo Yanez was found not guilty for shooting Castile seven times after Castile told the officer he was licensed to carry a weapon and had one in his pants pocket. Castile was shot while reaching for his ID after telling Yanez he had a gun permit and was armed. The second trial was the Bill Cosby case in which it was declared a mistrial. We saw the reactions splinter between people that were disgusted by the Castile verdict but simultaneously delighted by the Cosby verdict and wondered how that made any sense. We discuss it in detail in this episode.
