Don't know what the hell is happening in Iran, so let's remember Syria instead and ask, "What's going on with the SDF? Is there still a siege on Kobani?"

America is learning from the Chinese model of inflating box office numbers for patriotic films by organising mandatory viewings for government/SOE employees.
This is like they arrested Mr Peanutbutter for smiling.

It’s really difficult & disorienting but the feds hit LA extremely hard today. There were kidnappings all over & reported cluster raids in Chinatown, East LA, Ktown. This list shows to 1130 AM but they haven’t stopped all day
Just because the media attention stopped doesn’t mean the abductions have
I've found living 12 time zones away to enforce a bit of a bubble. My bingo card for "Things Americans Will Do" is mostly empty, except for the one about going fascist. I called that one.
'Agents’ body-camera footage later showed that Exum had rammed Martinez’s vehicle and then pointed his gun at her, threatened her and shot her five times. A federal judge dismissed the charges in November. Exum has not been charged.

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

There's a GI Joe doll somewhere missing its coat. I didn't know they made an Obergruppenführer Smurf edition.

How The Philippine Star covered this story vs how SCMP did.
Relax. "Impact on his family" is metaphorical. It's not like his wife and daughter will be standing directly under him. That would be crazy.

Grim stuff …
