Don Lemon’s Arrest Escalates DOJ Crackdown on Black Journalists and Activists

I read this yesterday and it's worth reposting. This is the America I was led to believe we were, or at least tried to be. This is something right out of Heinlein's "This I Believe" essay. pasadenanow.com/main/expecti...

“Antifa is not an organization,” Riley told me. “Antifascism is a natural response to state terror. Antifascist action belongs to the people. Anyone can do it.

And Reuters and ABC and NBC. I'm sure FNC is all over this. Chip chip chip ... the sound of the regime chiseling away our rights.

Some how we must stop this

While no technology is inherently evil, many applications of technology are. I group #LRADs with land mines, biological weapons, etc. Yes, countries have abandoned the Ottawa Treaty and ignore the UN Biological Weapons Convention, but the effort to outlaw is worthy. www.themirror.com/news/us-news...

So when is ICE headed to TX?

There is legitimate reason to carry these weapons on your person in law enforcement. I concede there are times where a service pistol is inadequate, but these weapons should be locked in a car, as should be body armor. Legitimate law enforcement needs neither. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/28/u...

I know. Big shock here, but I still wanted to put it all in one place. In my latest Substack, I compiled the evidence from multiple pilots focused on homeless people to show that over and over again, cash reduces homelessness and also even reduces drug use. Universal basic income is the way to go.

What we have here is a complete failure to read the room. CEOs should know better. Especially the CEO of a company that employs highly educated people with left of center tendencies. #TimCook #Apple #Melania theintercept.com/2026/01/27/a...

The only thing worse than a thug is a suave and educated thug, one who knows how to get away with things.

"i did not say he was violent. I said he was not protesting peacefully"

They stole Esther Jones’ voice and erased her name. I’m putting her back in history. They buried Black brilliance and hoped we’d forget. ERASED isn’t a book—it’s a reckoning. Read it before they ban it. Share it before they silence it. Get your copy now: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

“Peace is what the powerful ask for when they don’t want to be interrupted...Unity that refuses to name violence is just loyalty to the ones holding the weapons.” -- Matt Moberg.

I try not to originate political stuff here, but I made this recommendation elsewhere several months back and wanted to repeat it here. I think everyone somehow still on the fence about ICE should watch The Siege from 1998. A stark warning in advance of the creation of DHS.

If you run into insurgencies everywhere you go, you might be an oppressor

It's really important people understand that half of the country lives on a different planet. Highlighted is a real article that ran in November, a full 16 months after the event. The article was served to my bot and saved in a dataset I try not to look at because, well, it looks like this.

Calling Gregory Bovino Wee Willie Wehrmacht, is this anything

The BBC is the world's most respected broadcaster. @bbcrosatkins.bsky.social is its most respected fact checker. Here he analyses, frame by frame, what happened in Minneapolis. Border Patrol removed Alex Pretti's gun, 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒏 shot him — TEN times in five seconds. The Trump regime is lying to us.

And so goes another morning. I checked my various news feeds and unfortunately he's still alive and still in power. Same with the cabinet and top tier political appointees. Worse though is reading that the budget deal is in peril. Peril? It should be dead. Not one dem should vote for it.

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

Sadly I can not dispute this.

Trump's America

I'd like to note that the WW II vintage executions were at least carried out by men with balls enough to go unmasked and made no pretense of being "law enforcement." ICE are dickless cowards.

😕

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment "I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to assess the victim. At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

A year into this chaos, remember that he was only eligible to run again because GOP members of Congress—admitting privately, not on record, cowards they are—were afraid for their and their families’ lives from violent threats by their *own* “hang Mike Pence” voters. www.politico.com/news/2021/01...

There is no such thing as a kinder, gentler, and more accountable gestapo.

The absolute accuracy of this.

In our nation's current state this is completely unimportant, but I'm still a fan and I welcome this news. I'll take any bit of good news I can get as a mental "palette cleanser" to keep my rage and anger from burning me out.
