Airliners abort landings as Army helicopter makes โ€˜scenicโ€™ loop around Pentagon The Black Hawk was trying to land at the Pentagonโ€™s heliport, bringing it close to a pair of airliners, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.

Two airliners abandoned landing attempts at Washingtonโ€™s Reagan National Airport on Thursday afternoon when an Army Black Hawk took a โ€œscenic routeโ€ near the flight path and circled the Pentagon before landing at a military heliport.

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. Weโ€™re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.

The Mystery of ICEโ€™s Unidentifiable Arrests In early March, the agency announced that it had arrested forty-eight people in New Mexicoโ€”a month later, their identities and whereabouts remain unknown.

ICE officers are now reportedly required to meet arrest quotas each day, from a few hundred to between 1,200 and 1,500 nationwide. Jonathan Blitzer reports on the mystery of the agencyโ€™s unidentifiable arrests.

The Women going to the Sepulchre, 1912, Robert Anning Bell Painting of women in blue garments walking leftward, one woman, and then five behind her, on a flat plain, hazy sky ....

Thanks to my friend Harriet for pointing out that the women went to Christ's tomb and saw he was not there, the angels showed up to describe what happened, & the women then told the apostles, who dismissed them. A Biblical account of women not being believed.

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!!

This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference.

It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference.

I was a British tourist trying to leave America. Then I was detained, shackled and sent to an immigration detention centre Graphic artist Rebecca Burke was on the trip of a lifetime. But as she tried to leave the US she was stopped, interrogated and branded an illegal alien by ICE. Now back home, she tells others thinking...

This is so upsetting and so hard to read... Why is this happening? How could these agents of the state be nice in 2024 and monsters in 2025? Is this all it takes, to give people permission to act like sociopaths?
