To exist justice must be seen and must be heard. First semester of law school.

The numbers from PPS deserve to be chased, merit questioning in Assembly, and shouldn’t remain unchallenged. Most importantly, where is the paramilitary strategy?

I would even add that this is what happens when the government leaves such violence unaddressed. Last year should have been a wake up call. Inquiries were demanded. Police was supposed to start intelligence operations to root out the cause. They never did.

Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) addresses Kristi Noem: “your agency is out of control (…) you’re spending like you don’t have a budget, you violate immigrants’ constitutional and statutory rights. You think you can make up laws, but you can’t.” www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwZW...

Predictably, the family of the victim has been traumatised by the riots and the violence they generated, and have begged them to stop, especially in their name. It is unfathomable that we are at this juncture. www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/norther...

Les masques tombent. En réalité, les Gouvernements critiques de la CEDH veulent : - Expulser des êtres humains malgré les risques de mort & tortures - Refouler les migrants de façon expéditive - Les détenir dans des conditions arbitraires & indignes Eradiquer les garanties les plus basiques, donc.

They are elected *representatives*. We need leadership and not from a distance. Council workers, councilors, MLAs, MPs. Don’t sit on the hill. Come down protect your communities.

Yes. Maybe it’s time to use the big words that the DoJ would never want to use. Let’s consider the possibility that organised crime with a racial hate component meant at creating a hostile environment affecting human rights policy would indeed be terrorism. Imagine! What would this look like? 🧵

An Executive minister inciting criminal arson in the name of racial harassment is what the North of Ireland has become. Glad to see he’s referred to the Standards Commissioner. More should follow. www.wirralglobe.co.uk/news/nationa...

In addition to this, as USMC rolls into LA (to the sounds of Angelenos screaming “go home”), the GI Rights Hotline is 1-877-447-4487 to discuss conscience objector status

Has someone, press or otherwise, asked the Ballymena rioters why they are continuing to potentially prejudice the case against the perpetrators of that one assault they claim to care so much about? Seems like a lot of effort to ensure that wee girl never sees justice.

Amidst all of this, UK, Canada, Australia and NZ imposing sanctions on Ben-Gvir and Smotrich is welcome. More, please.
