The LRAD truck I discovered (same plate) last July outside Minnesota State Capitol is being used for 1st time (AFAIK) in MN tonight against protesters.

Terrifying sonic weapon.

Fed court (2nd Cir) ruled using LRAD on non violent protesters can be considered 14A violation, excessive force

Trump DOJ PANICS as MILLIONS OF NEW Epstein Files SURFACE?!?!
Trump DOJ PANICS as MILLIONS OF NEW Epstein Files SURFACE?!?! YouTube video by Katie Phang

Wow: Not sure we've ever heard Katie Phang this fired up. As an attorney herself, Katie has a whole lot to say about the DOJ suddenly "finding" 1 million more Epstein docs.

@hollybfletcher.bsky.social Reading your book right now. As an MK from DRC and UBAC, who is now helping my mother write her autobiography, I'm noting all kinds of interesting things. Thank you for your work.

The One Trump Flaw Most Americans Can’t Tolerate Democrats should emphasize not that the president is corrupt or inmoral, but that he is incompetent.

"Americans already understood Trump to be corrupt, and proved themselves willing to tolerate that," Peter Wehner and Robert P. Beschel Jr. argue. "But now they are coming to believe that he is inept. In American politics, that is an unforgivable sin":

We are desperately concerned for our journalists in Gaza, who are increasingly unable to feed themselves and their families. For many months, these independent journalists have been the world's eyes and ears on the ground in Gaza. They are now facing the same dire circumstances as those they are covering.
Journalists endure many deprivations and hardships in warzones. We are deeply alarmed that the threat of starvation is now one of them.
We once again urge the Israeli authorities to allow journalists in and out of Gaza. It is essential that adequate food supplies reach the people there.

Warning that their staff face death by starvation in Gaza.

ATTN: If you’re one of the 1,000 FBI agents who reviewed the Epstein files, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻

After visiting two more ICE facilities, we have more evidence to confirm that the Trump Administration is:

Overcrowding facilities.
Denying access to medical care and legal counsel.
Creating inhumane confinement conditions.

NONE of it makes us safer.

Why can't this food be sent to Gaza? Or Yemen? South Sudan? Ukraine? What a waste. This regime is incompetent and cruel.

With this awful terror attack in Colorado, Congress needs to ask how many federal resources have been pulled from counterterrorism to deport Hispanics?

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

Communications tip for Democrats:

Go on local TV and radio stations and explain what the GOP tax bill will do.

Don't focus on the national press.

Be hyper local.

Q: There are many people who fit the criteria of fleeing persecution. Afghans for example. But they're being denied refugee status. So why such an exception for the Afrikaners?

TRUMP ADMIN OFFICIAL: One of the criteria is making sure they can be assimilated easily into our country

The EPA Will Likely Gut Team That Studies Health Risks From Chemicals Reorganizations at the EPA may get rid of the agency’s fundamental program for research around the risks of toxic chemicals.

“Unfortunately, right now, it looks like the polluters won.”

Experts say that the mass of scientists being forced out of the EPA will slow down any future regulation of chemicals.

Ask yourself:

Why would anyone who wasn’t an asset of the Russian government do this?

Why would any decent human being do this?

Let’s Create “Town Hall Night in America” It’s time for Democrats to institutionalize our oldest form of democracy

In this piece, oldgoats.substack.com/p/lets-creat..., a brilliant idea: Town Hall Night in America, held all across the country in the first week of every month, would give the resistance tone and heft. Restack to get this idea heard!
