GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office. ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.

It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up.

I probably would have been writing a ton about Project 2025 in 2024 if it were not for the genocide. I'm sure that's true about a ton of the best policy researchers out there. The impact of Democratic Party-backed genocide comes through in a thousand different ways that are largely not measurable

Great read, “The exec order authorized Landry to bulk up the presence of Louisiana State Police (LSP) within … New Orleans, and to “compel the evacuation of all or part of the population,”” I was in NOLA during the storm & seeing unhoused ppl in the cold is 100% better than this graffiti being true

“This is definitely a signal of a new era of how New Orleans in particular is going to be policed,” warned Stella Cziment, the Independent Police Monitor (IPM) for New Orleans. LSP have patrolled New Orleans before, said Cziment. “However, I can’t stress enough now: This is not the same.”

Very disturbing and potentially relevant for every Democratic-run city in a state governed by Republicans.

Excellent reporting on the nascent New Orleans Tourism/Police State Zone. (Having State Police roam the city during Carnival is a very bad idea. This kind of thing is not their specialty.)

In 3 days, the number of measles cases in a highly unvaccinated area of Texas has doubled. There are now 48 cases, all of whom are unvaccinated, and 13 of whom have been hospitalized so far, for a hospitalization rate of 27%. This is huge figure in epidemiology. This outbreak will keep spreading.

@delaneynolan.bsky.social, who reported this story, points out that the $17.5 million spent on forcing these people into a freezing warehouse is the equivalent of one year's rent for 1,200 individuals. Unconscionable.

In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse. The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million
