Tropical Soulvangelical finds Sean Diddy Combs guilty as charged on all counts. TSV's verdict morally overrides that of the court, and he's got a number of points to make about establishing equity in the system which he saw lacking in the court trial. Firstly is the idea that the verdict of a court trial can never be questioned by the general public not exposed to evidence or lack thereof in the court, that somehow the general public is -disqualified- from making verdicts of their own and carrying out penalties accordingly in their own personal jurisdictions, e.g., increased demonstrations outside a Diddy concert with respect to the rights of survivors. TSV has just recently made a donation to a local anti-exploitation group because -trump- wants to pardon Ghislaine Maxwell -and- Maxwell's attorneys want the Supreme Court to overturn her conviction. They want it both ways, and TSV finds that our current court system makes that possible while a poor teenager languishes in jail sentenced 20 years to life for a shoplifting charge. TSV expects the prosecutor in such a case that has already seen a verdict to make a press conference discussing the 4- or 5- digit value of the items the teenager has shoplifted which may expose said prosecutor to disciplinary actions if it's determined that such assertions are untruthful and that said shoplifting items amounted to no more than $100 in value. Also, even if the items were of lofty monetary value, is that somehow an excuse for said teenager to be warehoused in the penitentiary system until he's 50 years of age? So with all that in mind, TSV makes the following requirements to our current system. If a defendant has the best legal team money can buy in a given felony case, a background review of the case as it has played out in court, including the actions of the judge, be automatically initiated upon acquittal of at least half the charges in the case. Such a review also invites public commentary that can be added onto via the public's reps in government even after the review is over, so that there isn't the move of "deadlining" on the public. TSV's pretty sure this is how they do it in Europe, which is why he's never seen OJ type trials in Europe. Only in America.

Tropical Soulvangelical wants to make a followup on our last base share regarding the attacks on Colbert. So while he still doesn't think that the cancellation was necessarily politically motivated, he nevertheless invites a public investigation into CBS accordingly. Maybe that's what he pretty much said last time, but he's justified in disinvolving Adam Schiff. He thinks Schiff was trying to pull a Biden to try to play down his attacks on Biden last year when Schiff said on Colbert's show that -trump- should eff off. Despite everything, TSV is still open to a sincere and contrite apology to Biden and his family and the American people from the Freshman Senator, so this whole business of "Hey I can pull a Biden too" he thinks really strikes as a poor and clumsy substitute to a proper apology. TSV's also disappointed that in confirming whether CBS portrayed the charred bodies of Kobe Bryant and his daughter, he was only able to find that Vanessa Bryant specifically sued authorities in Los Angeles County and not the media. That said, TSV did an AI to find out whether the newsmedia used the offensive photos (Chat-GPT via Duck.ai) and he was told, [paraphrase] Yes they did [end-paraphrase], so why shouldn't he believe that even with the inaccuracy disclaimer? He has heard in passing that CBS was involved, so why shouldn't he believe that someone was trying to hide something to make the evidence of such harder to find? Oh, and another thing, with respect to Colbert and TSV watching the monologue about Epsteingate and -trump-, TSV's wondering if -trump- kind of -enjoys- all the negative attention and all the denial he's doing in response, possibly because it distracts from having to attend to Presidential duties, because that's just a lot of hard work requiring the utmost pragmatism. TSV regrets that they don't do a poll on each and every single passing incident of something instead of just general issues, because then he would have seen a poll done on -trump- AI'ing an Obama video and whether the respondent believes Obama did something wrong solely based on an obviously fake video. 10% say he did, 85% say he didn't, and the other 5% is not sure. Of course when we get the final mushroom cloud over the horizon, about 5% of people seeing said mushroom cloud will poll as "not sure if that's a mushroom cloud and if I'm dead by the time you read this."

Tropical Soulvangelical's not sure he particularly cares whom he shocks when he says he doesn't see any immediate evidence that Colbert got cancelled for political reasons. He went on his activist channel to provide support to Colbert and his family, encouraging him to look beyond the vagaries of CBS, including their wanting to cancel the Star Trek franchise. He told him that any one of us can run a business like CBS better than those currently in charge. This is a network, TSV observes, that thinks nothing to showing graphic footage of school shootings like Parkland Florida without even a warning to the audience or the victims' families and he remembers CBS getting sued by Kobe Bryant's widow. She won that suit with respect to emotional distress when they showed the charred bodies of Bryant and his daughter after the helicopter accident. So TSV's thinking that if you don't think this is a network that makes sense for Colbert to just ditch CBS altogether like the way Howard Stern ditched regular talk radio for SiriusXM, he wants you to consider the above. So as per the theory of a political conspiracy? TSV's hoping for substantive evidence to arrive in time, but thus far all he has is Bidenhater Adam Schiff with a video caption reading [paraphrased] did CBS cancel Colbert over politics(?) I think we know the answer [end-paraphrase]. The phrase "I think we know the answer" TSV views as a poor substitute for substantial proof of something solely because you don't have that proof. TSV clearly sees this as an "extraordinary claims merit extraordinary evidence" situation. After all, those few scientists who go to a Ted Talks saying, "Is there intelligent life in outer space, I think we know the answer" TSV sees as getting laughed out of Ted Talks (he's hoping that Ted Talks's standards haven't sunk to the level of CBS). But TSV holds out hope we can find actual evidence instead of instances of emotional appeal that LogicallyFallacious.com warned him about. He's open to possibilities, including how he's now pretty sure that there was a second shooter on the grassy knoll (he feels they made a strong enough case) despite the fact that no one can contend that the second shooter necessarily delivered the fatal shot. So until then, TSV encourages Colbert to look to other sources like YouTube and Comedy Central proper among others. Colbert's capital of credibility outshines that of CBS by at least a hundred times. After the sex scandals of Les Moonves at least, TSV's having a hard time seeing CBS as the one time home of Walter Cronkite.

This month 7/25 marks the first year anniversary of 7/24, which a year later and perhaps forever Tropical Soulvangelical will remember as -the other- 1/6, where the central party betrayed Biden and his citizen supporters, and started off on a tangent that ultimately gave us another term of -trump-. TSV is blessed with being able to follow other supporters, like Chris D. Jackson, but only on a very fragmented basis. Sure there are the hashtags #Team46 and #TeamJoe but other than that TSV doesn't yet see a citizen supporter supported set of hash tags to try to unite Citizen Team 46. He's really not sure how hash tags catch on, because -anybody- can do a hash tag. Just go on your social platform of choice and do hash tag # and whatever phrase you want to hash tag with. But in any case, a year later, TSV is just as distrustful of the central party as he was a year ago, and is still at war with Schumer, David Axelrod, George Clooney, Jake Tapper and the Dirty Thirty. TSV resolves to keep on with primarying out as many of the personally corrupt as he can, and doesn't buy for a second any of their distractionary measures, including exploiting the very terrible -trump-. TSV keeps killing texts off his flip and ignoring manipulative emails. He just fired Insurgent in earnest though keeping track of Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell, but he's certainly not going to miss the rest. So in addition to pro-Joe citizen hash tags, he wishes there was a pro-Joe video channel he subscribe into as the -real- Insurgent. For the time being, he'll have to keep looking.

Tropical Soulvangelical has observed that Biden's appearances both in Galveston Texas and in Minnesota took place without the likes of George Clooney or David Axelrod or anyone in the central party trying to take away from that. TSV hopes Biden's Donkeyish enemies have learned their lesson for the time being, seeing how Jake Tapper seemed to have been apparently refused appearance on most late night type shows in trying to promote his anti-Biden book. The book's been out for what appears to be nearly two months, and TSV's relieved that Colbert and Kimmel didn't have Tapper on. Sure both comics TSV expects will do "old" jokes, but they also want to make sure they stand for the value of truth, so Tapper's book appears a bridge too far for them. With respect to Galveston, that was this year's Juneteenth observance which comes a year after media coverage of Biden frozen in place at a Juneteenth event at the White House. In Galveston, he was anything -but- frozen, though Tapper was almost certainly frozen in place in the proverbial sense when Biden warned against those to wish to erase history, and TSV takes it that he wasn't just talking about -trump-. TSV sees it as perfectly justified for Biden to push back against not just personal attacks against -him- but political attacks against his silent plurality of supporters including TSV for standing for things like a stalwart stance in political life. To that end, TSV believes that shortly after Zohran Mamdani won the New York City Donkey primary, there was a phone call between Mamdani and Biden in which TSV believes Biden encouraged Mamdani to keep in touch with Brad Lander, the stalwart in the New York race, and to not let anyone try to get Mamdani down over his socialist leanings. It's one thing, TSV thinks, for a socialist to tell Mamdani that, but that it makes more of a difference for a non-socialist to tell him that. TSV joins the 55% in opposing the Big Ugly Bill and warns against the -trumpists- against even considering a rally type event marking a signature into law, and hopes that the late show comics will continue to make fun of the creaky tanks that will make an appearance at that rally as well as last year's garbage truck.
