Kama, Kamala, Khameleon, She Comes And Goes The DNC.

The chameleon lizard changes its color to fool those around it, blend in, and take advantage of the unsuspecting. Vice President Kama Kamala Khameleon Harris does the same. On Thursday, August 22, the fourth night of the DNC’s convention, at 10:00 p.m., Vice President Kamala Harris appeared in Chicago’s United Center building to accept the Democratic Party nomination for President.

Although many women have run for the American Presidency before, it was a historic night for America. This landmark event was the first time a woman had made it this far to accept the presidential nomination of any American political party. Kamala Harris isn’t only the first female but also the first Indian American to do so.

Kamala has never publicly acknowledged her father except during her acceptance speech. Her father, Donald J. Harris, claims to be a white Irish man. Slavery has had a debilitating effect on the minds of some people.

She has instructed others not to speak of her father. Like many other speakers at the August 22nd Democratic National Convention, they presented a night of man-hating rage. Speakers like wanna-be U.S. Senator Colin Allred said that, like Kamal Harris, he was raised by a single mother. Perhaps Kamala Harris is a test-tube baby. During her 2021 V.P. inaugural address, she never once mentioned her father. Perhaps Kamala Harris is a Test Tube baby? No one knows for sure. One thing is certain: Kamala Harris needs to ride on the backs of Black people to climb the social ladder into the White House.

Speaking at The United Center, Kamala, after dodging the media — Harris attempted to add some meaning to her bereft of policy campaign.

The Khameleon comes and goes. Vice President Kamala Harris has wormed her way into some of the best apples using subterfuge and a laugh that is as real as a three-dollar bill. During her 2020 run for President, then-Senator Harris said she was dead set against fracking. In 2024, after being handed the Democratic nomination on a platter, Harris changed her colors on fracking. Kamala has switched and camouflaged herself about any other policy to deceive the unsuspecting voter.

The Vice President now is for fracking. In 2019, while debating Joe Biden, Harris claimed she was denied “busing” to go to school because of Joe Biden’s racist policies. While there is ample record of Joe Biden’s racist policies, there is no record of Harris being denied busing. Kamala Harris went to school in Canada.

Kamala’s Fracking Controversy. What Is Fracking?

“Fracking is short for hydraulic fracturing, extracting oil and natural gas from rock formations with drilling and chemicals.”

In 2019, when she failed to launch a presidential bid, then-Senator Harris said that as President, she would ban fracking altogether. She failed to make it to the primaries. Donald Trump, on the other hand, said he’s one hundred percent for fracking. It isn’t unusual to hear the former President’s followers chanting Drill, Baby, Drill at his rallies.

Harris finds it hard to admit that she’s a political chameleon. She changes her color any way the wind blows. Instead of simply saying that she has evolved from a former stance she took, she twists herself into pretzels to avoid speaking the truth.

Former President Obama once said marriage was between one man and one woman. Years later, he changed his stance on the traditional definition of marriage.
Obama explained his new political expediency by saying that he had evolved. Vice President Kamala Harris could learn something from the Obama playbook.

In 2019, when Senator Bernie Sanders popularized “Medicare for All,” then-presidential candidate Kamala Harris jumped on the bandwagon. Harris even co-sponsored a “Medicare for All” Bill with Sanders.
Today, Harris is twisting in the wind on her previous stance.

Three weeks after former President Trump announced that there would be no tax on tips under his administration, Kamala Harris proclaimed the idea as her own.
Action speaks louder than words. Look at what Joe Biden does, not only what he says. Look at all the generational pain Joe Biden has visited upon Black America. And the same goes for Kamala Harris. She is a chameleon.

Kamala Harris’ First Interview As Prez Nominee: Tim Walz Holds Her Hand. DEI?

0

Is Vice President Kamala Harris playing possum, or is she a DEI Presidential Nominee? On Thursday, August 08, 2024, Kamala Harris sat down with CNN for her first interview since taking over the Presidential bid from Joe Biden. On Sunday, July 21, President Joe Biden relinquished his reins from the 2024 United States presidential election.
Biden immediately supported his second in command, V.P. Kamala Harris.
Vice President Harris did not reach Damascus by the usual route. She reached the top of the ceiling by hook and crook. However, they say the frog did not get to the top of the roof by accident.

Harris — The Artful Dodger Or Fagin?

For thirty-nine days, Harris has been dodging the Press. While getting on Air Force Two, Harris said nothing to the media except a one-minute two-line answer. She’s given scripted speeches at rallies with booty clappers and rump shakers—but nothing serious.

Harris has labeled former President Donald Trump as “unserious.” She gave a 39-minute scripted speech at the Democratic National Convention to officially accept the DNC’s nomination. In her speech, she made promises of things she’ll do in the White House as President.

Only fools are satisfied by promises.

Perhaps she’s forgotten that she is in the White House now. America is living under a Biden/Harris administration. The American people need relief now, not more broken promises. Playing Fagin of the Artful Dodger only makes Harris look like a (Diversity Equity and Inclusion) DEI Presidential pick.
In her interview with CNN, Harris’ Vice Presidential pick, Tim Walz, was latched to her side. Harris looked like an elementary school kid who brought her parent to school to meet with the principal.

The Unprincipled Flip-Flopper: Policy vs Values

When a CNN host asked Harris about her ways of flip-flopping on issues. Harris launched into a scripted answer.

“The most important and significant aspect of my policy perspective and decision is that my values have not changed,” Harris said. My values on what we need to do to secure our border have not changed,” she said again.

CNN failed to ask Harris what needs to be done to secure the borders. So Harris continued, “I spent two terms as the A.G. of California prosecuting transnational criminal organizations for violating our laws.” Regarding the passage of guns, drugs, and illegal passage of humans across our border.” My values have not changed.

CNN’s host question was similar to Donald Trump’s statement about Kamala Harris’ flip-flopping on her identity. She’s African American when it’s convenient. And she’s Indian American when it’s convenient.

Perhaps Harris should have said her values have changed about allowing, by some estimation, over fifteen million people to cross the border illegally into America. Should voters take her at her word that she will continue on that same no-border policy?

These Travel Credit Cards Rank the Highest in Customer Satisfaction.

Using a credit card with travel perks is one of the best ways to stretch your money further and see even more of the world. However, choosing the right credit card can take time and effort, with so many options on the market. 

 Luckily, J.D. Power’s 2024 U.S. Credit Card Satisfaction Study aims to make that decision easier. 

 The study rates credit cards across several categories, including co-branded cards (i.e., an airline partnering with a bank), credit cards with or without an annual fee, and overall credit card issuers. 

Southwest’s cards by Chase sweep the top spots for airline co-branded credit cards. The Southwest Rapid Rewards Premier card, which has a $99 annual fee, ranked No. 1, while the Southwest Rapid Rewards Priority card, which has a $149 yearly fee, snagged the No. 2 spot.

These credit cards are so popular because of the airline’s Companion Pass, which allows pass holders to bring a buddy onboard for free. 
 
Credit cards without an annual fee are always popular among travelers because they offer easy access. The Apple Card ranks first for co-branded cards without an annual fee, with the Hilton Honors American Express card coming in second.

The latter card comes with perks such as 7X points per $1 spent at a hotel or resort within the Hilton portfolio, 5X points per $1 spent on purchases at U.S. restaurants, U.S. supermarkets, and U.S. gas stations, and 3 points per dollar for other purchases. Cardholders also enjoy Hilton Silver Elite status and purchase and travel insurance. 

They based the study on customers’ satisfaction across seven factors: account management, benefits, customer service, new account, rewards earning, rewards redeeming, and terms.
The study surveyed 38,852 credit card customers between June 2023 and June 2024. 

Beyond the popularity of different credit cards, the study also found that cardholders are frustrated with automated customer service interactions and favor the cash-back perks versus using points and miles. 

RFK, Jr Drops Out of The Race Endorses Prez Trump.

0

With no path to presidential victory, RFK Jr. suspended his presidential campaign and endorsed President Trump. There were only seventy-three days to go before the Presidential election. With each passing day (RFK, Jr.), Robert F. Kennedy’s chances of winning the keys to the White House got slimmer. The latest polling showed him with a 2.9 percent chance of gaining victory on Tuesday, November 5th.

The American political two-party system does not allow room for a third-party candidate to run for the Presidency successfully.

There has not been another since George Washington, the first President and only independent candidate to win the Presidency. Dr. Cornel West calls the suffocating two-party system a “duopoly” with a stranglehold on truth. Initially, Dr. West started his bid for the Presidency as a Democrat.

However, he was soon forced out of the race when DNC Chairman Jamie Harrison decided his political platform did not match traditional politics. Dr. Cornel West was of code. Dr. West said he was running for justice and truth—not the Presidency. So far, the 2024 presidential candidates, such as Dr. Jill Stein and Marianne Williamson, have been deemed people of conscience.

There are only four Independent, or nonaffiliated politicians in Congress out of the five hundred thirty-eight: Senator Kyrsten Sinema, Bernie Sanders, Joe Manchin, and Angus King of Maine.

Most of the four senators mentioned started as either Democrats or Republicans. However, as the heat builds in Congress and their congressional seats get threatened, they become “Independents” to survive tight elections.
Ross Perot was the only independent presidential candidate who came close to winning the race. He spent 60 million dollars of his own money to get that close to the White House.

Kamala Harris raised almost 310 million dollars in 48 hours after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race. Big money donors pay for Vice President Harris’ way into the White House. But what does she have to do in return for that money?

 Clear Just Increased Its Annual Fee For Expedited Airport Security  

The cost of cutting the line at the airport got higher. 

 As of early August, biometric company Clear increased the annual membership fee for its flagship program, which allows travelers to enjoy an expedited process through airport security. 

 According to new details on the company website, the individual rates for Clear Plus have risen by $10 from $189 to $199 per year. This increase will impact new enrollees, while current members will see the rise the next time their membership is up for renewal. Anyone who frequently travels with children will be happy to know that Clear Plus has maintained one of its most significant benefits: family members under 18 can join you in the Clear Lane for free. 

“Clear has updated the price of its Clear Plus membership to $199 per year, which is less than $1 per month and is only the second price adjustment in 14 years,” a Clear representative told Travel+Leisure in a statement, adding that the increased price is a reflection of the company’s growing network and additional perks. 

 One new benefit is the Clear Scout program, which helps members recover lost items at the airport. The new Home-to-Gate phone app also tells users when to leave their homes to arrive on time and can even schedule a rideshare. 

After a recent expansion, Clear now serves travelers at 58 airports across the U.S. and can also be used at select stadiums. With Clear, members can skip the ID verification line, opting for a biometric scan of their iris or fingerprints instead. The Clear Lane is typically much shorter than the usual TSA line. Once the scan confirms the member’s identity, they are placed at the front of the airport security line.   

From there, they’ll be subjected to the same security procedures as everyone else unless they also have TSA PreCheck. This government-run program allows approved travelers to go through separate security lines without having to take off their shoes or remove liquids and electronics from their bags. 
 
A combination of Clear and TSA PreCheck is the ultimate gold standard for frequent flyers who want to get through the airport as quickly as possible. Enrolling in both programs while at the airport with the help of a Clear representative comes with a small discount: $121.05 for the first year of Clear Plus and $77.95 (usually $78) for five years of TSA PreCheck. 

VP Harris Picked Minnesota Gov Tim Walz as Her Running Mate.

Vice President Kamala Harris chose Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her Presidential running mate.
Sixteen days ago, President Joe Biden forcibly resigned from the 2024 White House race. His re-election bid suddenly stopped after at least 34 congressmen and women called on him to leave the race.

Soon after being pushed out of the race, Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as his successor to the throne. But will VP Harris make it to the throne? Today, after hiding out from the glare of the media—except for appearances at scripted rallies—Harris reared her head to announce her pick for a presidential running mate.

Gov. Walz of Minnesota is a former U.S. Army non-commissioned officer and retired educator. He is the 41st governor of Minnesota and has been in office since 2019. Strategically, the sixty-year-old governor was the most logical choice for Harris.
Harris was in deep trouble with younger voters or the more progressive side of the Party. Walz should help restore those progressive votes to the Party.

When Derek Chauvin murdered George Floyd, Gov. Walz and his wife, Gwen Walz, were the first to denounce the killing. They were in the trenches like “regular” folk, speaking of the horror of Floyd’s killing.

Legacy Stream Media Push For Gov. Josh Shapiro

Legacy Media on both sides of the aisle pushed to select Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania. Shapiro’s pick would be a wrong choice. Having two prosecutors at the top of the ticket would be a hard sell. As a prosecutor, Harris is known for destroying the lives of many for smoking marijuana. Shapiro, who is Jewish, because of his stand on the recent college protests, would fail to harness many of the progressives’ votes.

For that reason, an old former Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey was on CNN Monday night saying Kamala should pick Gov. Shapiro to “push back” on bigotry. That Lieutenant Governor knows that a Shapiro pick would backfire on the Democrats. She’s sly.

For that reason, an old former Lieutenant Governor of New Jersey was on CNN Monday night saying Kamala should pick Gov. Shapiro to “push back” on bigotry. That Lieutenant Governor understands that a Shapiro pick would backfire on the Democrats. She’s sly.

Picking Shapiro would be a double negative—an Indian woman and Jewish man at the top of the Democrat Party ticket (currently) would be an instant when a double negative doesn’t make a positive.

That is why Harris did not pick Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg as her running mate. It’s a double negative. America isn’t ready for an openly gay man to be President. This creed forced Senator Tim Scott to rent a girlfriend during his presidential run. Now, Tim Scott is stuck with her for a while.

Business As Usual: The Continuity of Biden’s Administration

It will be business as usual if Harris wins her bid for President. She will be a continuation of Joe Biden’s covert racist policies against Black people.
Come 2028, members of her Party (will challenge Harris1), and second, she will face a more formidable challenge from the Republicans.

The 2024 Republican roster for President was one of out-right fascists and Neo-Nazis. All the Republican candidates were trying to out-trump Donald Trump. They all failed—Bigly.

Black Democratic Shills Upset Over NABJ Invitation To Trump.

The one-eyed Black cyclops on social media, and main stream media aka social “influencers,” aka the NABJ who have been misleading quite a few Black people over the years, are crying foul. The National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) created a firestorm after their leaders invited former presidents to speak at their convention.
Some members of the NABJ called on their top leaders to resign. The brouhaha forced Karen Attiah, the co-chairwoman of the National Association of Black Journalists convention, to step down. That wasn’t very smart of her.

Being Black When It’s Convenient.

What turned out to be the great takeaway from Trump’s attendance at the NABJ convention was his statement about his Indian counterpart, Vice President Kamala Harris. When asked about Kamala’s “Black” heritage, Trump responded, “First of all, when I first met her, she was only promoting her Indian Heritage. I didn’t know she was Black until several years ago.” VP Harris first met Donald Trump in the 1990s.

When Kamala Harris met Trump in the 1990s, she was Indian. Donald Trump knows the game. “Game recognized game, Hoes do too. If you knew 2-Live Crew, I suppose you do.” — Rapper Jay-Z. Trump went on to say, ” I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black.” And now she wants to be known as Black. Facts.

“The facts, please, ma’am, just the facts.”

The convention moderators were Rachel Scott of ABC News, Fox News-owned Harrison Faulkner, and Kadia Goba Semifor. Rachel Scott is mainly considered a balanced Journalist. Fox News-owned Harrison Faulkner comes across as a shameless, self-hating Republican shill and a mammy. Because of the Boule’s uproar, it did not take Scott long to establish what she thinks is her Black bonafide.

It is a credible perception that most members of the NABJ are Democrat party shills. They bleed blue no matter who, and frequently, they work against the best interests of the Black grassroots within the community.

Rachel Scott started by asking Donald Trump the first question: “Mr. President, I’m so glad that you gave us an hour of your time.” I want to address the elephant in the room. Ms. Scott said, “Many people do not think it was appropriate for you to be here today. “You have pushed false claims, from Nikki Haley to Barack Obama, saying that they were not born in the United States—which is not valid.

She continued, “You have had dinner with a White supremacist at your Mar-a-Lago resort.” “So my question, sir, now that you are asking Black supporters to vote for you, why should Black voters trust you after you have used language like that?”

Former President Trump responded with his vintage backhanded takedown of Rachel Scott. “First of all, I don’t think I’ve ever been asked a question in such a horrible manner.” “You don’t even say hello. How are you?” Are you with ABC? Trump asked. Because I think they are a fake news network — a terrible network,” Trump responded. “I think it’s disgraceful that I came here in good spirit. I love the Black population of this country. I have done so much for the Black Population.”

The fact is, as a private citizen, Donald Trump has made some disparaging and detrimental comments about some Black members of the community. As President, he did not do much to aid the Black community. However, as President, Donald Trump has done less to harm the Black community than Joe Biden has done as Senator and as President.
Donald Trump has passed laws to destroy members of the Black community. Joe Biden has passed laws to ruin the lives of many in the Black community. And Joe Biden has made more disparaging comments about Black people in America than has Donald Trump.

So, while some people are upset that they invited Trump to have a conversation with the NABJ, mostly the grassroots or those who listen to the Black Media are celebrating his invitation. There is a whole “new” world of Black journalists who are reaching the grassroots, and their message is uncompromising and contrary to what the NABJ is propagandizing. Rachel Scott shamed herself.

Unfortunately, most members of the NABJ have become shills of the Democratic party instead of being journalists.

Southwest Announces the End of Its Open Boarding Policy

Southwest Airlines has long stood out among other major air carriers for its unique open boarding policy. But according to a recent announcement, that policy is about to end, along with a few other changes to the company’s operations. 

 After more than 50 years, Southwest will transition to a new assigned seating process that will also offer passengers the option to purchase premium seating with extra legroom. This change is designed to provide more comfort and convenience to our passengers. Announced in a late July press release, the airline has yet to mention precisely when this new seating policy will roll out. 

Many travelers fear that this policy change will put Southwest in the same ranks as most competitors, charging customers to choose seats, especially the premium options. Southwest, however, claims that most of its passengers dislike the company’s open boarding policy. 
 
“80 percent of Southwest customers, and 86 percent of potential customers, prefer an assigned seat,” Southwest noted in the press release, adding that “when a customer elects to stop flying with Southwest and chooses a competitor, open seating is cited as the number one reason for the change.” 

Southwest will transition to a new assigned seating process

Another significant change coming to Southwest Airlines is the introduction of its first-ever red-eye flights. Due to launch in February, booking is already available on the overnight routes, including Las Vegas to Baltimore and Orlando, Los Angeles to Baltimore and Nashville, and Phoenix to Baltimore.  
 
Southwest plans to add more red-eye routes throughout 2025, a change that the airline’s CEO Bob Jordan says is a “logical evolution” for the company. This expansion opens up new travel possibilities and demonstrates our commitment to meeting the diverse needs of our passengers.

“We have the aircraft. It’s a great way to use an asset you already have more productively, meaning more hours in the day,” Jordan told The Dallas Morning News in March. So, we will be doing red-eyes.” 

 According to Southwest Chief Commercial Officer Ryan Green, who spoke at a travel conference in March, the airline could operate as many as 50 red-eye flights per day once launched. 

 “We have to be maniacally focused on efficiency,” Green told The Washington Post. This commitment to efficiency ensures that we can continue to provide high-quality service while adapting to our passengers’ changing needs. 

Revamp SCOTUS: Biden’s Fear of Trump Keeps Him Up At Night

0

With deep fears of what a second President Trump term could do to America, President Biden plans to revamp the Supreme Court of the Unites States (SCOTUS). In its current form, the SCOTUS has proved highly corrupt.

Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito have taken extravagant gifts from wealthy right-wing backers for years.

While it is unclear what services Thomas and Alito perform for the money, most Americans suspect their favor for a flavor play requires them to lean extremely right of most of America’s politics. Surveys show that 4 in 10 Americans have little confidence in the Supreme Court.

In an OP-ED for the Washington Post, President Biden wrote, “If a future president incites a violent mob to storm the Capitol and stop the peaceful transfer of power — like we saw on Jan. 6, 2021 — there may be no legal consequences.”

Biden’s Concerns About Trump And The United States

President Biden’s op-ed reflects his concerns after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on July 1 that the DOJ cannot prosecute Donald Trump for actions that were within his “constitutional powers” as President. “The ruling is a landmark decision recognizing for the first time any form of presidential immunity from prosecution.”

In his Washington Post op-ed, President Biden proposed three main changes to the court, which he said is “mired in a crisis of ethics.” Biden would like to include term limits and a binding code of conduct for SCOTUS. However, the President’s op-ed reads more like a wishlist. Speaker of the House Mike (the fluke) Johnson has already said Biden’s pipe dream is DOA.

Former President Donald Trump’s pronouncements about White Christian Nationalism while campaigning haven’t done anything to allay the fears of most Democrats. On Saturday, in St. Cloud, Minnesota, Trump told his followers, “If you want to save America, get your friends, your family, get everyone you know. Get out and vote, vote early, vote absentee. Vote on election day. I don’t care, but you have to get out and vote.

Again, Christians should get out and vote—just this time. You won’t have to do it anymore. You know what? For four more years, it will be fixed, and it will be fine. “You won’t have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians. I love you, Christians. I’m a Christian.

I love you. You have to get out and vote. The crowd went wild as the atheistic Presidential candidate guile them on. Trump continued, “You won’t have to vote again in four years. We’ll have it fixed so good, you won’t have to vote.”

The crowd continued cheering. What a silly bunch of people! Did they realize what he was saying to them? He’s ending America–if given the chance. WOW!

Those Magamaiac’s feelings of White supremacy disallow them from dealing with reality.

In his fearful op-ed and warning to the country, Biden wrote, “This nation was founded on a simple yet profound principle: No one is above the law. Not the President of the United States. Not a justice in the Supreme Court of the United States. No one.”

Demonic Cop Shoots Woman In Face: I Rebuke You In The Name of Jesus.

0

Telling Sangamon County Sheriff’s Deputy Sean Grayson, “I rebuke in the name of Jesus,” was like showing Count Dracula a Holy Cross.
The words “rebuke” and “Jesus” in the same sentence to Sheriff Deputy Sean Grayson was like sprinkling “Holy Water” on the Devil. Those words triggered the inner Devil inside Grayson to commit murder. Increasingly, gang members inside police departments are joyfully murdering African Americans.

On July 06, Sonya Massey called the Sheriff’s Office for help. Massey thought she heard someone prowling in her backyard. About fifteen minutes after calling for help, psycho cop Sean Grayson entered Massey’s home and shot her dead in the face. The Sangamon County Sheriff hired Sean Grayson despite his two previous DUI convictions.

Former Sangamon County Sheriff Deputy Sean Grayson Killed Sonya Massey For Using The Name of Jesus

The vicious Deputy has worked for six different police departments in Illinois over the past four years. Sean Grayson worked full-time for two Sheriff’s offices for over 24 months. Grayson also worked full-time for a local police department and part-time for three other police departments.

Deputy Grayson told Ms. Massey he wanted to shoot her, then carried out his threat and shot Ms. Massey in the face.

After killing Ms. Massey, Grayson, his on-scene partner, and a supervisor went straight into cover-up mode. They claimed Ms. Massey suffered from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

After Sheriff Deputy Sean Grayson and his partner checked the victim’s yard for suspicious activity and found nothing out of place, they knocked on Ms. Massey’s door.

An Encounter With The Devil

Massey, who is Black, stalled for a while before opening her door to Grayson and his partner, who are both white men. The deputies questioned Massey about what took her so long to open the door. She told them she had to put on some clothes. Ms. Massey also said she didn’t want them to hurt her.

Predictably, Ms . Massey’s fears were realized as psycho cop Grayson shot and killed Ms. Massey, a mother of two. Grayson and his partner entered Ms Massey’s home without an invitation or a warrant.

While in her home, they requested Ms. Massey give them an ID card. As Ms. Massey tried to find her ID, Grayson instructed her to turn off the stove with a boiling pot of water. Ms. Massey complied with the officer’s order.

As Massey removed the pot of hot water from the stove, Grayson began to panic. I will shoot you in your face, the vicious Grayson told Massey.

On Monday, just before Illinois state police released the video, Civil Rights attorney Ben Crump warned the video) is “(The going to shock the conscience of America.” Crump said, “It is that senseless, that unnecessary, that unjustifiable, that unconstitutional,” civil rights attorney Ben Crump said. “This Sheriff’s Deputy was twice as large as Sonya. Why would you have to use a gun to shoot her in the head?”

After reviewing the Body Worn Camera, Sangamon County State’s Attorney John C. Milhiser charged Deputy Sean Grayson with first-degree murder, aggravated battery with a firearm, and official misconduct.

Soon after, Sheriff Jack Campbell with the Sangamon County Sheriff’s Department fired Sean Grayson.

First Assistant State’s Attorney Mary Rodgers for the District Attorney’s office compiled the incident report.

Ms. Rodgers wrote in her probable cause report: “While standing in the living room, noticed a pot of hot water on the stove in the kitchen, which was separated from the living room by a counter. He told Massey she could remove it to prevent an accidental fire. Massey then sat the pot down on the kitchen counter.”

Ms. Rodgers’s report also states, “Grayson then drew his gun and threatened to shoot Massey in the face; Massey put her hands in the air, declared “I’m sorry” and ducked for cover behind the counter before Grayson “closed the significant gap” between himself and Massey and fired three shots at her, striking her once in the face.”

The report also states, ‘Grayson also discouraged the other Deputy from getting his medical kit,” prosecutors said. “The other deputy still rendered aid and stayed with Ms. Massey until medical help arrived,”
