Terry, I'm pretty sure there are gobs of independent journalists who are not collaborators with a fascist regime who would love to have you come work with them.

I notice people calling what we’re seeing these last couple of days “riots.” I was here during the 1992 Los Angeles riots. That’s not what this is. Local police can handle this, but ICE needs to back off—especially with these amateur hires who don’t know what the f*ck they’re doing.

🚨Zelenskyy urged the U.S. to provide concrete support for Ukraine’s air defense, not just words, as the country awaits approval to purchase critical systems. He thanked Europe for aid and pushed for joint missile production. Escalating Russian attacks, he said, prove Putin isn’t serious about peace.

This is pure fear-mongering and a dangerous escalation. Threatening violence against protesters—many of whom are exercising their First Amendment rights—is not leadership, it’s intimidation. Using the National Guard and suggesting ICE might kill people… www.rawstory.com/tom-homan-pr...

Law enforcement hides behind masks for “safety” and secrecy, yet protesters are told to reveal themselves—criminalizing peaceful dissent. Using the National Guard to enforce this only chills free speech and escalates state control. www.rawstory.com/kristi-noem-...

PROTESTS BEFORE YOU GO • Know your rights: You have the right to protest peacefully, record public officials, and remain silent. • Write legal contacts on your body with a Sharpie in case of arrest. • Dress smart: • Wear non-identifiable, layered clothing (dark, no logos)…….

DURING THE PROTEST. • Stay with a buddy or group-look out for each other. • Document everything (time, place, actions) safely if you can. • Keep hands free (use a backpack, not a purse). • Don't escalate stay peaceful and alert. • Avoid facial recognition: • Face mask, hat, sunglasses……

If Things Escalate • Pepper spray exposure: • Flush eyes with saline or water (tilt head to the side). • Wash skin with mild soap or baby shampoo. • Don't lie down-gas sinks low to the ground. • Tear gas? Use leaf blowers, traffic cones + water to neutralize. • Avoid milk-use saline or water instead

A huge step from HHS that is at odds with science showing significant risks for young children and pregnant women — and that directly contradicts the FDA's own publication from last week listing pregnancy as a high-risk condition that would qualify people for this fall's Covid vaccine

American journalists, classicist Mary Beard says, ask her all the time which Roman emperor Trump most reminds her of. “My gut feeling is that it’s actually an insult to most Roman emperors,” she said.

In U.S. v. Lovett (1946), the Supreme Court held that not even Congress, in a bill signed by POTUS, may cut off all contracts with a named individual or organization: that’d be an unconstitutional bill of attainder. Only courts can decide who deserves to be punished. SoTrump can’t do it with an EO!

Rahm Emanuel better figure out how to win w/out the Black vote if he’s going to keep using the word “woke” as a weapon against Dems. That goes for any candidate parroting GOP lines & taking cues from Ron DeSantis. “Woke” is a word rooted in the Black community—it’s not yours to twist into a slur.

If you do a close read not only of the Bible but the archeology, it starts to look like the Israelites, & all but a couple of Judean kings, worshipped a goddess for pretty much the whole First Temple era. The implications of this are... far ranging-- & her name might not be what we've believed.
