Arnoldo Bazan and I share a last name. It's a fairly rare name. My Bazán ancestor came north in 1805, so Arnoldo and I are unlikely to be kin within the last 5-8 generations, but we are brothers now.

Why did they arbitrarily demand "25 yards" be witness-free? Because their illegal detentions and perjury were proven by cell phone cameras. Unlike the landscapers they are tackling, I can afford a lawyer. www.wcnc.com/article/news...

In Charlotte NC yesterday bands of masked goons dragged US citizens out of their cars, & came onto private property to try to kidnap workers installing Christmas lights (because, "Yay, Jesus!"). Among the arrests, they snatched two workers repairing a concrete expansion joint in a shopping center.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP. Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP. The people who need help are not the problem. It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

“The law might have tolerated government conduct of this sort a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. But in the here and now, the First Amendment bars government officials from shutting down peaceful protests,” his lawsuit says. apnews.com/article/dart...

I recently opened an Instagram account to keep up with this fight for the NC Supreme Court. The GOP fought to overturn Justice Riggs' election because they wanted a 7-0 GOP Court; the rigged General Assembly would cement that hold by switching to "retention" votes. www.instagram.com/reel/DQHDBlI...

There is no "Good News" in their pseudogospel. "A majority of white evangelical Protestants believe...immigrants are invading the country (57%)... and that the government should place immigrants into militarized internment camps until they can be deported (56%)." open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

Ezra Klein seemingly wants people to concede the point that Obama didn’t deliver something he never promise, a post-racial America, because racist resented his presidency. The suggestion alone is racist.

@netaloid.bsky.social in Costco yesterday I saw a MAGA hat in the wild--a pudgy guy in polo shirt tucked into shorts cinched tight with a leather belt & head on a swivel. Later I discovered the price of 2.5 pounds of whole bean coffee had jumped nearly $6. I'm not proud that I went looking for him.
