The most vital thing you can do right now is spread this message offline to normies. There is no "unrest", there's a protest. It has 400 people. LA does worse when the Lakers come in 3rd in a season.

I wrote how it's critical we don't get distracted by the Trump/Musk childish feud & stay focused on protecting our Republic
Now, SCOTUS just ruled to give DOGE full access to our private SSN data & I'm seeing comparably zilch coverage.
Distraction is working.😐

Wellman: When I served in Iraq.. I heard about how Saddam Hussein divided them. Different sects fought each other. But you know -- Saddam and his family sat laughing at all of them. They divided them against each other and kept their power for 35 years. Does this sound familiar to anybody?

Very sad news. A terrific writer and a wonderful guy to hang out with. A loss for us all.
Peter David's wife is reporting that he passed away last night.
A versatile writer of comics and prose who adapted well to many characters, he had been having severe health issues for a while.
I am glad that he was around, and wish the best to those who knew him.
