I was a Blue dot in the red state that everyone wants to saw off the map. Now I’m mobile in a van currently hanging out in the sw USA. Follow me on YouTube @scubaval08 for incoming & upcoming #vanlife blogs. I’ve documented my journey from the very start.
This is the FBI’s list of “Prominent Names” it was tracking in the Epstein Case. This list appears in this slide show, FBI email correspondence, and FBI tip sheets — all of which I saw unredacted today. Believe the survivors.

This is an interesting article written from the perspective of Intelectual Property holders in the music industry who are analyzing the case between Reuters (owns Westlaw) and Ross (company who used Westlaw to train an AI).
Fair Use is very complex.

Congratulations! I too found that later on the desire left me. I don’t think about it now except to celebrate sobriety. 22 years now and I love celebrating others’ sobriety! Well done, sir!
Perfect
When the “Papers Please” debate in Arizona raged, one of the huge arguments against it was:
“How am I supposed to feed my family when I get fired for being late to work because I’m stuck at checkpoints because of the color of my skin?”
That should be shouted again more now
Truth yes. Reconciliation will be more difficult compared to the civil war. This time the traitors need to pay their debt to society, revoke MAGA, attend repatriation classes and pay reparations. Otherwise this country will going through this again. And again.
Josh, I’m white and only speak English. But in the summer I get very brown. And my complexion can be mistaken for Hispanic or indigenous or even ME. Am I going to get grabbed as non citizen? Pretty good chance.

Either way, trumpland is rife with backstabbers. Let them wonder who recorded it.
He basically did, in American-speak.
I posted your article today @gregolear.bsky.social but messed up tagging you. Follow me back please (and thank you).

As I sit here in the desert, on public land, reading @gregolear Sunday Pages today, I am again reminded how easy it was my whole life to take democracy for granted. One of his best.
“Ignorance, thy name is Trump.” And also his spokesperson at the podium.
A word…
We can be good Democrats and still demand better from the party. In fact, that’s what being a good Democrat is—fighting for its future, pushing for stronger leadership, and calling out those who are failing us.

So… the very same Republicans who said they were cutting SNAP because hunger could be “addressed by food banks”, just cut $500 MILLION in funding for…
You guessed it.
Food banks.
“On Monday, the Texas attorney general, Ken Paxton, announced the first criminal charges under Texas’s abortion ban. Maria Margarita Rojas, a licensed midwife, was charged with the illegal performance of an abortion,” a “second-degree felony, which comes with up to 20 years in prison…” 3/22/25
“President Bukele [of El Salvador] recently met at Casa Presidencial with the co-founders of Silicon Valley venture capital firm, Andreessen Horowitz…” 3/2/25 (Those co-founders are DOGE advisor Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz.)

“France’s research minister said a French scientist was denied entry to the US this month after immigration officers at an airport searched his phone and found messages in which he had expressed criticism of the Trump administration.” He had been traveling to a conference near Houston, TX. 3/19/25
It never got a lot of attention, but Aber put a WHOLE LOT of child predators w/ties to law enforcement in prison.

Keep sharing this because it is vital to understanding this moment.
The timing of his entry into politics after this trip, the one position he’s held firm on (at odds with past presidents of both political parties) and the unraveling of the post-WW II world order.

Right now, if you don’t have the “right” papers this is the way the regime will treat you if you’re brown.
Eventually, it won’t matter if you have the “right” papers or not. So fight now while you still can.
Lutnick’s mother-in-law has a daughter, Allison Lambert, who is a partner in one of the nation’s largest law firms and is married to a man with a net worth of $1.5 billion.
So, nah, she won't be calling. But if you depend on that monthly deposit to balance your checkbook, you damned well would.
