Already, more private security guards than police. Already, a shadow econony.

Claiming that “white supremacists are infiltrating law enforcement” misunderstands both white supremacy and law enforcement. Water doesn’t “infiltrate” a stream.

Pulling funding from Dem-lead states was always going to happen. And it's still illegal and unconstitutional.

Defeating the Nazis was an act of LIBERATION. D Day wasn't the end of the war, but it was a step toward toward it. The Nazis had to be decimated before they would consider surrender.

This situation exists because institutions failed to do what they were supposed to do. Cowardly fucks head the voices saying "somebody needs to do it," and they replied with "somebody else can do it."

If you need a breather from all this bullshit, here's a photo of Earth. From Saturn. We're that slightly brighter star at centre right.

Thick, phat, bodacious mammatus. Beware, though, as they are indicators of at least moderate turbulence, and probably worse above.

There are some witty comments out there re the Ukrainian special operation: Zelensky = a man without a suit. Trump = a suit without a man. Trump: "You're not holding any cards!" Zelensky: "I'm not playing cards."

Ukraine planned that attack for a year and a half. They destroyed strategic bombers, aerial refuelers, airborne warning and control planes, and a nuclear submarine, fuel farms, and radars. Their deterrent triad is fucked up. Karma. Escalation works. youtube.com/watch?v=10dn...

The Republican Party has chosen to fight poverty by killing off all the poor people.

Asymmetric warfare at its best. Ukraine is blasting Russia's straregic bomber fleet all to hell, using cheap and plentiful drones moved in shipping containers.

You can call the MAGA / Trump regime a gangster state or you can call it a cult. There isn't much difference. You are being offered a deadly cup of poisoned Kool-Aid. What shall be about it? All things end in reckoning.

Let's take a dive into the MAGA end times agenda. I have found no better expert coverage than that by Andra Watkins @andrawatkins.bsky.social : youtube.com/watch?v=2d4f...

Apparently states’ rights stop the moment women board a plane with autonomy in their carry-on.

A long duration eruption reaching the M8+ level is currently in progress around AR 4100 near center disk. This event is likely going to produce a coronal mass ejection. Stay tuned. SolarHam.com

That all white paint job has been used at least as far back as the late 1970s. Remember Southern Air Transport, which participated in Ronald Reagan's "Arms for Hostages" deal. Today, we can monitor ADS-B, which most flights are required to have running. Paint doesn't matter.

I have yet to find any persons prosecuted or sued for leaving their state and going to Vegas for gambling or brothels.

While Stephen Miller publishes the faces of the judges that struck down Trump’s unlawful tariffs, his own goons in ICE refuse to show theirs out of fear of being publicly identified. If our judges are brave enough to face MAGA threats with their faces showing, ICE should not hide behind masks.

What the fuck is wrong with Trump? He seems to do this for every holiday. As usual, everything he says is bullshit. 8647

A few good words about empathy, from John Brown.

Obama death panels = bullshit; Trump death panels = real. Demented Joe = bullshit; Demented Trump = real. Folks seem to love being neck deep, drowning in the Kool-Aid.

Always know that professional short sellers will spread bad news and / or disinfo to smash individual company stocks, then cover (buy back shares) while everyone else is panicking. By the time folks realize the panic was bullshit, the shorts are already out...

I get a kick out of cancer surviving kitty @missybbbobtail.bsky.social‬ but still bear the sting that people I respect - Marc Elias @marcelias.bsky.social‬ and Adam Serwer @adamserwer.bsky.social‬ just lost their pets to cancers on the same day.

Let us not mince words; the situation is worse! millions of Americans WILL lose health care. The phrase "at risk" is as absurd as saying "playing Russian roulette puts you 'at risk' of injury." Watch the "Deer Hunter" if uncertain about what happens. The GOP stochastic death game must be stopped.

Between gutting the CDC and FEMA, Trump and his regime of eugenicist fucks are setting up the USA for max deaths from disasters. Project 2025. Stochastic genocide against the non-christofascist billionaires.
