Excerpt: When two survivors emerged from the wreckage, a Special Operations commander overseeing the attack ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth’s instructions to “kill everybody,” according to The Washington Post, citing officials with direct knowledge of the operation.

Me again: Murder is generally illegal, but there will be no prosecutions. Trump & his cohorts are above the law.

First, Trump sent troops to occupy American cities, Secret Police to abduct ordinary people with Hispanic surnames, etc. The plan, I believe, has been that someone will inevitably responds to violence with violence, and when that happens, they’ll ratchet down further, toward the goal of quashing dissent entirely — because that’s what fascists do.

If you’re not white, straight, and pretending to be Christian, Trump & the Republicans see you as the enemy.

It’s just a coincidence, I’m sure, that the shooter is a (former?) CIA operative.

Excerpt: Meta allegedly gave accounts engaged in the “trafficking of humans for sex” 16 chances before suspending them, according to testimony from the company’s former head of safety and well-being, Vaishnavi Jayakumar. The testimony — along with several other claims that Meta ignored problems if they increased engagement — surfaced in an unredacted court filing related to a social media child safety lawsuit filed by school districts across the country.

And the penalty will be: nada. Trump & his cohorts are above the law.

Again: If you’re not white, straight, and pretending to be Christian, Trump & the Republicans see you as the enemy.

For defying a court order, the penalty will be: nada. Trump & his cohorts are above the law.

Excerpt: U.S. District Judge Sara Ellis ordered the 43 videos released after she relied heavily on them in issuing a preliminary injunction last week restricting the use of tear gas and other chemical munitions by agents on the public and media.

In her 233-page opinion, Ellis wrote that, over and over, body-worn camera footage from the agents undermined what was eventually put in their use-of-force reports, rendering their statements unreliable.

The reports also misidentified “neighborhood moms and dads, Chicago Bears fans, people dressed in Halloween costumes, and the lawyer who lives on the block” as professional agitators, Ellis wrote, while the body cameras at times captured the agents’ apparent glee in deploying tear gas and other munitions on residential streets.

Me again: What will be the penalty? Nada. Trump & his cohorts are above the law.

Trump could cancel all of Biden’s executive orders, legally, by simply issuing new executive orders. But what’s the fun in doing things legally?

I’ll keep saying it, and it’ll keep being true: Trump & his cohorts are above the law.

Rich people can buy bottled air, and people who aren’t rich don’t matter.

Quote: “A very Happy Thanksgiving salutation to all of our Great American Citizens and Patriots who have been so nice in allowing our Country to be divided, disrupted, carved up, murdered, beaten, mugged, and laughed at, along with certain other foolish countries throughout the World, for being ‘Politically Correct,’ and just plain STUPID, when it comes to Immigration.

“The official United States Foreign population stands at 53 million people (Census), most of which are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels. They and their children are supported through massive payments from Patriotic American Citizens who, because of their beautiful hearts, do not want to openly complain or cause trouble in any way, shape, or form. They put up with what has happened to our Country, but it’s eating them alive to do so! A migrant earning $30,000 with a green card will get roughly $50,000 in yearly benefits for their family. The real migrant population is much higher.

“This refugee burden is the leading cause of social dysfunction in America, something that did not exist after World War II (Failed schools, high crime, urban decay, overcrowded hospitals, housing shortages, and large deficits, etc.). As an example, hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State of Minnesota. Somalian gangs are roving the streets looking for “prey” as our wonderful people stay locked in their apartments and houses hoping against hope that they will be left alone.

“The seriously retarded Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, does nothing, either through fear, incompetence, or both, while the worst ‘Congressman/woman’ in our Country, Ilhan Omar, always wrapped in her swaddling hijab, and who probably came into the U.S.A. illegally in that you are not allowed to marry your brother, does nothing but hatefully complain about our Country, its Constitution, and how ‘badly’ she is treated, when her place of origin is a decadent, backward, and crime ridden nation, which is essentially not even a country for lack of Government, Military, Police, schools, etc…”

People will die, are already dying, and many more people will die for generations because of these fools.

Even banana republics have more justice than America.

Again: If you’re not white, straight, and pretending to be Christian, Trump & the Republicans see you as the enemy.

Rich people have limousines, and people who aren’t rich don’t matter.

The article isn’t worth reading, or even clicking. I’ve included it only for the bullshit headline: “Despite Trump’s best efforts…” Hilarious.

Trump has done nothing that would plausibly bring manufacturing back to America, because the first thing any big capitalist concern requires is stable, predictable government and policies, and Trump will have none of that.

Had to include this, just to jeer at the journalism. Here’s a genuine newspaper, The Straits Times, publishing drone footage of the horrendous fire in Hong Kong — and adding a musical soundtrack because, you know, without music the imagery wouldn’t be dramatic.

Stupid headline, and a weirdly slanted article. Seattle’s Gasworks Park celebrates steampunk with some cool old towers, behind fences and signs that say “Do not climb.” If someone is stupid enough to climb the fence and climb the gasworks anyway, well, that’s sad for his family, but that’s the end of the story.
