The entire incident is infuriating and terrifying. She’s a Latina woman who was working a service job. On her way home late at night, with her headphones in, she was detained for an hour by masked federal agents who wouldn’t give her their names.

Maria Greeley, 44, had just finished working a double shift at the Beach Bar on Ohio Street
earlier this month when she said she was surrounded by three federal agents who grabbed her, forced her hands behind her back and zip tied her.
Headphones in, Greeley had been focused on getting home to her two dogs for a walk.
Instead, she said she was detained by masked agents who did not answer when she asked for names. They questioned her for an hour, she said.

Why?

US is looking more and more like a failed state. Moving rapidly to fascism.

The expensive, risky, never-never nuclear submarine deal that would make Australians prime targets in the event of war was always a dumb Morrison brain fart.
Return Sovereignty back to Australia.

When 12 people were killed in Charlie Hendon's attacks, world leaders thronged to Paris for a solidarity march, but no world leader has organised a march to protest killing more than 67,173 civilians, 20,179 children, 376 UN aid workers, and 254 journalists in Gaza ... and counting.

Change the gun laws. Restrict gun ownership. Ban automatic weapons.

Look to Australia for laws that actually work to keep people safe.

Massive crowd in Melbourne/Naarm today (in case you thought this movement was going to be placated with more colonisation). Until the occupation ends. Until Western war criminals and their enablers face justice. Until Palestine is free.

Hi all, Just sent out my free weekend update. It ended up being focussed on the strategic air war. Russia, once again, is trying to make Ukrainian cities unliveable in winter. They have benefited by the US slow walking air defense--though Europeans are helping more. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...
