don't mind me, just finding lots of bread crumbs showing Epstein and the League of Pederasts were a driving force in pushing transphobic hate.

This email was sent in October 2014, at the start of the current anti trans political campaign and astroturphing.

death from disease in concentration camps is so widespread and so predictable that it's pretty clearly a feature, not a bug.
ICE now confirming that there is a measles outbreak at the Texas concentration camp where young Liam was held.

I should really watch New Mutants again. It's a flawed film, but actually wanting to watch it again puts it way ahead of Apocalypse or Dark Phoenix.

Which is a shame, because I love the casting, they're just bad, bad films.

The X-Men movie New Mutants deserved a better reception, and a better reputation
Its blend of horror, YA drama, and superheroes works, but the pandemic left it underseen and underappreciated

Buried in this article is the astonishing news that "Across the state Democrats have recruited candidates to run in all 150 state House districts, 16 state Senate districts and every other state and federal contest on the ballot". G-d bless Texas, get on their level.

On August 12, 2017, Heather Heyer was killed by a neo-Nazi in Charlottesville.

On August 17, 2017, Noam Chomsky told the Washington Examiner that antifa was “a gift to the far right”.

In between those dates he met with Jeffrey Epstein in Tuscon.

My time to shine: newts have sex by the male laying down spermatophores and then waving his tail and head butting the female until she sits on one and takes it into her cloaca.
On 29th January 1996, "Threshold", the Star Trek: Voyager episode where Captain Janeway and Tom Paris turned into giant space newts and had babies first aired. Since it's #ThresholdDay we aim to answer a burning question: did Paris and Janeway fuck? If so, how did they fuck?

This is literally all so stupid, but especially point three. The man who killed Renee Good videoed it himself and we know who he was. This cannot be reformed. It must be abolished.
SCHUMER says Democrats are “united” behind three DHS reforms

1/ End roving patrols; tighten the rules on warrants and require ICE to coordinate with local authorities.

2/ Enforce accountability; a uniform code of conduct.

3/ Require masks off, body cameras on, agents carry ID.

In Printz v. United States, #SCOTUS held that the Constitution bars the federal government from forcing or otherwise compelling local or state governments to enforce federal law.

The liberal squish who wrote the majority opinion in that case? Justice Antonin Scalia:

This was just me making this comparison yesterday, but today the Korean news is calling Minnesota "America's Gwangju" and have human rights lawyers explaining how America is now living through the dictatorship Korea once had.
The Chun regime that my wife fought against in the 80s did the exact same thing. They needed a "crisis" that "only they could solve" to hoard more ill-gotten power, so they chose one city (Gwangju), declared its inhabitants enemies, sent trucks full of soldiers to violently attack and kill them.

The idea that the British Raj respected the rule of law is legitimately one of the funniest things I've ever read in my entire life
Non violence works when the aggressor respects the rule of law. America's laws seem to disappear when one party is power

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

it might seem that attacking Minnesota, Greenland, Denmark and Norway is a strange choice of foes but what people don't understand is that Donald Trump has very strong feelings about the sack of Lindisfarne in 793.

There are a lot of career civil servants in DHS who are now cogs in a machine whose primary function is to kill and terrorize their fellow citizens. If they choose to stay on after today, their friends, family and everyone they meet will be judging them accordingly.

On the execution in Minnesota: Obviously, the individuals involved should be held accountable. But responsibility goes to the top of ICE and CBP, and DHS. Their appropriations come up next week in the senate. Not a cent for DHS without pulling ICE and CBP off the streets, in MN and everywhere else.

So far the "Board of Peace" is Trump, Orban, Lukaschenko and Netanyahu.

Which if you wrote in a satire would be considered too outlandish and sent back.
