PLANET VALENTI NEWS AND COMMENTARY

[ED. NOTE: COMMENTS ARE NOW ENABLED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE AS WE BULKED UP BACKSTAGE ON THE PLANET]

(FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE, THE WEEKEND EDITION JUNE 23-5, 2023) — While THE PLANET is dusting, let’s gather the odds and ends.

How Stupid Is He? — A day after he praised his Secretary of State for the the Chine trip and soon after Xi Jinping praised the visit, Joe Biden called Xi a “dictator.” That’s the pot calling Al Sharpton black.

How Stupid Is He II — Concluding his remarks at University of Pennsylvania commencement, Biden baffled everyone, including aides, when he uttered, “God Save the Queen, man.” WTF?? The man isn’t well.

Taiwan On — Many issues divide the U.S. and China: Sanctions, China’s chip industry, human rights, trade, and Taiwan. Regarding Taiwan, America nods to Xi’s “One China” policy (we do not have diplomatic relations with Taiwan), yet we will defend Taiwan in the event of an invasion from the mainland. The historical long view suggests China has every right to claim Taiwan as its own. The U.S. should recognize and support that.

Hoe Stupid Is She? — Biden’s laughing hyena VP makes Syracuse Joe look like Einstein. Two recent Kamala quotes: “It is time for us to do what we have been doing. And that time is every day.” And this one: “So I think it is very important, as you have heard from so many incredible leaders for us at every moment in time and certainly this one, to see the moment in time in which we exist and are present and to be able to contextualize it to understand where we exist in the history and in the moment as it related not only to the pat but to the future.” May we quote you, Madame VP?

Common Sense Trumps DIE — Wisconsin legislators cut $32 million the University of Wisconsin spends on Diversion, Inclusion, and Equity programs and put the money into job training. It’s a win for everyone except the 180 DIE employees at UW. They will now have to get real jobs.

Schiff Stiffed — Since 1789, 11,116 people have served in the U.S. House of Representatives.  Only 24 had been censured. Now there’s 25. C’mon down, Adam Schiff. The former House Intel Committee chairman was chastened by  colleagues for lies told during the Trump-Russian collusion hoax. Progressive!

Blub Blub Blub — Thinking of paying $250,000 to plummet 12,500 feet to look at a rusting pile of oceanic junk on a tiny submersible with safety issues? Best advice: Don’t. Sorry, but those rich folks onboard asked for it. Remember what happened to the S.S. Minnow on its “three hour tour. A three hour tour.”

Telephone Exchange — The Picklefield Socloh Committee has finally acknowledge what parents, teachers, and Kapanskis have known for years: Yougsters’ smart-phone use is ruining classroom work. Administrators knew this too but lacked the spine to take action. You and THE PLANET know the situation has gone long past Fail Safe when the Slchoo Committee panics. The simple solution: Ban student cell phones on school grounds. Period.

Take Me Out of the Ballgame — A $15 million renovation of Wahconah Park? Picklefield’s 20 years too late. Check the memory banks for something called The Bouton Plan.

Kal-El, Kandidate — City councilor Karen Kalinowski must think she’s from Krypton and invulnerable on Earth. She’s running for mayor. She’s in over her head. Kal-El comes from weirdness. As a cop she was lazy. One poll watcher tells of an election when Kal-El’s duty was to stand watch at the polls. Instead, she spent the shift in a lounge area watching TV with the firemen. As a school resource officer, bullying went off the charts. As councilor, she’s all blahblahblah and no action. As mayor … what could possibly go wrong? Hang ’em up, Kal. Your shelf life has expired.

Night of the Hunter — Sen. Chuck Grassley, who’s leading an investigation into Hunter Biden, blasted the plea agreement with President Biden’s son on tax evasion and weapons charges. “Today’s plea deal cannot be the final word, given the significant body of evidence that the FBI and Justice Department has at its disposal. It certainly won’t be for me,” Grassley said Tuesday. Biden, 53, takes a $5 million bribe from corrupt Ukraine energy company Burisma, funnels another $5 million to his then-VP dad, cheats $100,000 in taxes, commits a firearms offense, and gets wrist-slapped. President Trump keeps presidential papers, something all presidents do, and the feds want to jail him. That’s what they do in totalitarian regimes, isn’t it?

God save the Queen, man.

Have a great weekend, everybody.

So when Karen first announced her candidacy your readers seemed quite happy about it Dan. And I think in the last month I have read one person who seems to like Marchetti and none that liked Krol.

Can’t remember seeing anything bad said about her from anyone but you Dan. Interesting. So I assume you do have a favorite by now and I wunner who that could be.

I think people are scared of having a woman as mayor after 8 years of Tyer even though Karen seems to be someone with common sense. The trust level of any politician at this point isn’t good. Who can blame the public after seeing our politicians on the take at the local and federal levels. They are lying, scheming, and making themselves unbelievably rich while throwing crumbs to the really poor among us meaning those not associated with the school departments and unions throughout the country. Those people are being taken care of for their votes. They are getting huge increases in salary to keep up with the out of control inflation. They are bought off by the far left. There is no doubt about it.

Women haven’t exactly shown that they know what is going on in this country and can make logical decisions not based on pure emotion or greed. That they won’t sell out our country to a dangerous political agenda either because they can’t figure out what is going on, or because they know full well, but choose money over saving their country from the Communists and globalists.

Krol or Pete will be the same old same old business as usual. What pushed Karen into the race was the increase in tax rate and water and sewer. She was the only one who went after Chief Wynn about the amount of money for new cars for the department and asked him to hold off for a year.

But your buddy Marchetti voted for every INCREASE in taxes and fees and will always do so. And what all the city employees need to realize is that their constant tax and fee increases are eating up their raises and they are actually losing money in the end. And so are their family and friends and children who do NOT get those raises. I would kindly ask them not to sell their votes.
Also, no one knows who you vote for once in the booth. You can tell the Marchettis and special interests that you voted for him but then do what is actually best for you, your family and the city.

Calling Biden a dictator is absurd. Clearly, Dan, you don’t know what a dictator is.

“China has every right to claim Taiwan as its own. The U.S. should recognize and support that.”

Bailing on Taiwan? I don’t think so.

Looking past your misogynist ‘hoe’ slur, Harris has the smarts to make it through law school and become a state AG and then a US VP. What have you achieved lately, Dan?

The 180 DIE employees at UW did a fine job. I ran through their gauntlet and was selected as the winning candidate, in competition with several females and minorities. They did their job exactly as they should have.

Adam Schiff told nothing but the truth during the Trump-Russian collusion.

A little sympathy for the 5 lost lives on the Titan would be nice.

“Ban student cell phones on school grounds. Period”

Agree!

Karen Kalinowski would make a fine mayor, given our choices.
Methinks there is no female candidate that would pass Dan’s muster.

Why ban phones on school grounds? So the indoctrination of the children can continue without any interruption from the outside world? In the classroom might make sense, but on school grounds?!? That makes no sense.

Schiff was lying to the public for 4 years and was like a crazy man trying to manufacture any dirt on Donald Trump that he could. You are NOT living in reality to say otherwise. We have all the proof we need. Recordings of Schiff salivating over anything he could use to GET TRUMP.

I like Karen as a possible mayor, but people have a low level of trust for any politicians right now as they all seem to be on the take from the President on down. The latest recording of Hunter Biden trying to take down someone challenging his money schemes while using the influence of his father to pressure him is proof of that. My father is right here with me he says. He sounds free of crack and of sound mind while he is pressuring this person.

I would agree. She and Kronick are the ones with the most common sense. She does her dammdest to make the city a better place. What the hell did Krol do for the city as a councilor? Now he speaks of potential. Just a cliche that means nothing. And Marchetti talks about his leadership’. Looking at his watch and banging his gavel after three minutes makes him Winston Churchill I suppose.

She’s your best candidate for mayor and I find Dan’s comments about her offensive. Per my observations if a candidate doesn’t kiss Dan’s butt or answer his questions, that candidate becomes persona non grata.
According to my Pittsfield sources she is the only candidate actually working for the taxpayer.

I will be voting for Karen whether she interviews with you or not Dan. The other two already have interviewed and they eliminated themselves with their phony personas. Got no use for phony folk at all. Just don’t trust them. Marchetti is attached to the hip of tyer and she failed miserably as he stood by and watched. So he is a non starter and will only win if his handlers can buy the election. Krol comes across as a used car salesman and I have been burned more than once. I want a real person as my mayor.

Peter Marchetti said that he would have to take a pay cut if he is elected Mayor of Pittsfield. The mayor’s salary pays $115,725 per year plus public perks; (A would-be future 6-figure city public pension plus perks for life). Peter Marchetti called the double-digit water and sewer rate hikes “small” compared to previous years. Peter Marchetti weighs around 300 pounds, lost his bid for mayor in 2011, and always voted in favor of Mayor Linda Tyer’s record setting municipal budgets in return for Level 5 public schools, Pittsfield always being in the top 10 cities in Massachusetts for violent crime year-in and year-out, and so on – “A shit sandwich”.

John Krol is a middle-aged politician with a long history of being unemployed, he has never proved himself as a professional level manager, he says he will revitalize downtown Pittsfield’s distressed economy (and paste wings on pigs and watch them fly around North Street), and he is trying to make his middle-age crisis comeback in Pittsfield politics.

Craig Gaetani is a fringe politician who has a history of legal and health issues. He doesn’t work to build consensus on public issues – he is a one-man band. He criticizes the city’s failed leadership in the image of the late Peter G. Arlos, who treated people harshly and caused many people to be upset with him over it. Craig Gaetani is an old school politician who is out-of-touch with today’s post-industrial and highly financialized economically unequal society with a shrinking middle class and a growing underclass, especially in Pittsfield.

Karen Kalinowsky is a retired Pittsfield Police Officer who wants a career in Pittsfield politics. She supported Melissa Mazzeo for Mayor in 2019, and she opposes Mayor Linda Tyer’s leadership, along with Peter Marchetti and John Krol’s campaigns for mayor in 2023. She ran for mayor in 2019, but she lost in the preliminary election. She faces long odds to advance in the 2023 preliminary election.

If I still lived in my native hometown of Pittsfield, Massachusetts, I would rather write-in: Clark Kent, Bugs Bunny, George Bailey, or Mickey Mouse….for mayor!

Trap, you forgot the supreme “motherly creature” of motherly creatures, Big Mike Obama.

And K, before you add your .02, research Big Mike’s mother’s will and who she left her worldly possessions to.

Here’s a hint K, she left her possessions to “her son.”

It means Marian Robinson, Big Mike’s mother, in her will, left her possessions “to my son Michael.”

To help you break it down to its simplest terms so you’ll understand K:

A will is a legal document a person draws up prior to their death. In this document, a person upon their death, is leaving whatever possessions they have to whomever they chose.

In this case, Marian Robinson was leaving her possessions to her son Michael Lavaughn Robinson, also known as Michelle Obama.

It means exactly what I typed K. Big Mike is a man, not a woman.

A man has a penis. A woman does not. She has a vagina.

Easy enough for you K? Hope that helped.

Perhaps you can tell us why opening up the city hall parking lot for The Kapanskis is “stoopid”. Private business reserves the choice parking for customers, not employees. Why should government do the opposite? They should kiss us taxpayers arses.

Ward 7 challenger candidate Jon Morey, who is a baker and business owner and property owner in Pittsfield, talks about Pittsfield politics’ cliques, “2 famous warring rich families”, deferred maintenance and road and bridge projects, excessively high municipal tax and fees, and the extremely drastic and arbitrary removal and banning of his business at the Pittsfield Farmers Market as retribution for him calling one of the co-directors “dishonest”, but he cannot get anyone to respond to him.

In campaign against Maffuccio for Pittsfield’s Ward 7 city council seat, Morey says he’d be more responsive to constituents | WAMC

I’m disappointed with the dismal of those two charges! Shugrue when running promised to charge to the fullest anyone carrying a loaded firearm without a license. This just sets a poor example and doesn’t discourage future criminal action with unlawful firearms possession.

The current mayor gives women a bad name. It’s embarrassing being the same gender as her. Kalinowski would be even worse. To refuse to address the public (via the Planet) only solidifies her idiocy. Women in charge of Pittsfield has been nothing but a disaster.

Not to mention, one of the runners is knocking on doors already (Krol) not just addressing the Planet. I doubt Kalinowski has it in her to walk in the same shoes due to utter laziness. And truthfully, I don’t think she really wants it. The only thing this will do is take away votes from someone more qualified. I can only imagine who planted this seed in her underdeveloped brain cell (and I do imagine).

Pittsfield is in dire straights. We don’t need this ridiculous gesture.
