As we finish this first week in September I want to talk about my writing and ask for some help in keeping my blog going. I've been trying this summer to intentionally write things that could be useful for the months ahead the-haters-guide-to-international-politics.ghost.io/the-state-vi...

MANY ARE UPSET THAT I THINK MY REELECTION IS LOCKED UP

lonevoice.bsky.social @lonevoice.bsky.social · 11h

Why @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, @chucktingle.bsky.social et al won't is clear: they THINK their reelection is locked up. They know the Americans who care don't have another option. And the second level leadership in the party is doing what they did with Biden: pretending nothing is wrong!

For those unfamiliar -- the term is more common w far right movements in Europe than here -- "remigrate" implies not deporting migrants here illegally, which DHS does. It implies pushing legal migrants, naturalized citizens, even people born here to give up US citizenship and go 'home' [sic]

I just want you all to know that when we told you that they wanted to destroy everything and you thought Black women were exaggerating? This was the "ironic" racism you said we were overreacting to 10 years ago. Racism has never had generational limits

For the past at least five years, many of the world’s most prominent academics and journalists have been openly pushing the idea that people need to be “exposed” to bigoted ideas and taught by bigoted professors. Why are we then surprised when we find bigots in charge of our children?

It really throws you for a doozy because people will loudly and confidently tell you they know they’re like this and at the same time downplay concerns about these people staffing the places that help determine a child’s future.

you can just read the interview, you know.

So I see this election as very critical to who we are as a nation - the character of America, democracy. And they may not like hearing that, but I don't like what they're saying either. And what they're - the assault that they are making on - no one is above the law. That's been what America has been about, except if you're Donald Trump.

KELLY: When you say they, you're talking about who? Republicans?

PELOSI: Yeah. I'm talking...

KELLY: People who support Trump?

PELOSI: ...About the cult that the Republican Party has become - a cult to a thug. And that thug would be Donald Trump. So I wish they'd take back their part of - the country needs a strong Republican Party. It has had a strong Republican Party with great leaders for America. And that is really not what we're seeing there. It's up to them, though.

chemical warfare and targetting of civilians is forbidden by the geneva convention, which this invading force does not respect

every single person working for ice gets a single unlit and damp cigarette butt before they face the wall

Based on the video shared by Univision (they've paired it with overhead from ABC), today's attack might be the most chemical gas we've seen feds launch into a neighborhood so far. The clouds are enormous/that's a lot of canisters. Completely engulfing cars and homes.

I've been taking it for granted that people know what alt-text is for, but that assumption was clearly wrong.

Alt-text is read out loud by assistive technologies like screen readers. It's primarily for people who are visually impaired.
