This has a very specific context: That Pam Bondi's DOJ refused to enforce an arrest warrant for Cory Mills after his girlfriend called the cops on him. We should keep repeating that fact: Pam Bondi is letting a powerful white man engage in violence in part bc GOP Majority depends on her doing so

Watch as this LAPD cop takes deliberate aim at an Australian reporter, then shoots her at close range. I would fire the police chief over this. Inexcusable thuggery.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

NSW to review law that presumes children under 14 are incapable of evil
After a 2016 high court ruling, the conviction rates of 10 to 13 year olds in NSW have plummeted, report finds * Australia news live: latest politics and federal election updates * Get our breaking news email, free app or daily news podcast A centuries-old legal presumption that children aged between 10 and 14 don’t understand the difference between right and wrong is to be reviewed after New South Wales youth criminal conviction rates tumbled fivefold.

This is the first I’ve seen of what I always thought was coming - Catholics “are unlikely to feel welcome” in a Christian nationalist society. No word whether we’ll be actually executed like the Puritans did the Quakers.
