Postscript: Here are two people who brought guns to a protest and are not only still alive, but were subsequently invited to speak at the 2020 RNC. The fact that this protest was in support of George Floyd does not imply a contradiction in the gun nut world view.

Photos of Alex Pretti with Sara’s caption:

On August 16th at approximately 10:00 pm
I received a call from the ICU at the VA saying my Dad had sepsis and needed to be intubated to stay alive so Josh and I headed in. We were greeted by the kindest, most calming and warm soul who helped us understand what was happening and showed deep care for us and my Dad. He continued to show utmost patience and kindness over the next few days as my Dad remained in the ICU and we were there continually. It was Alex Pretti, the man shot today by ICE. If you see this video and don't think it's murder, I don't understand your thinking and ask you to question your heart. He was out there trying to help and protect and from the little we knew of him, it doesn't surprise me he was not afraid to be on the front lines of this horrible scene in our Minneapolis. Weeping for his family and all those at the VA who no longer get to work with him or receive his care.

My friend Sara posted this about the superb care her father received from with Alex Pretti

Absolutely heartbreaking

The New Epstein Island Is Right In Your Pocket: It’s Time To Abandon Elon Musk’s Paradise of Abuse It has long been time to leave X. Now, it’s essential.

β€œX must be held accountable. But I now have to ask, why are so many people still there? Why are MPs still posting there? Why are organs of the British government still using a site one of its own ministers just condemned in such clear moral and legal terms? Why are other governments?”

I could see the appeal, at least for connecting with people in the same situation you're in. Seems more like a penpal situation would make more sense than a 'mail club' though.

Opinion | Ilhan Omar: Trump Knows He’s Failing. Cue the Bigotry.

The president fails to realize how deeply Somali Americans love this country.

We are doctors, teachers, and elected leaders working to make our country better.

We will not let Trump intimidate or debilitate us. My op-ed:

Mr. Beast's "Boys Club" | Jimmy Donaldson's Record of Controversy, Exploitation, & Shady Business Shady business deals involving Peter Thiel, reports of misogyny on set, peddling crypto, and so much more from Mr. Jimmy Donaldson Beast.

I remember saving this article & corresponding youtube video about his ties to Peter Thiel and dark money from a couple years ago. Truly dystopian shit now that the government has even less ethics than before.

you could fact check this β€” there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin β€” or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

A lot of US policymaking now goes:

1) Do something stupid for stupid and/or corrupt reasons

2) Lie about it, denounce people warning of consequences

3) See negative consequences mount, do an ad hoc move to try to mitigate those consequences while generally keeping the stupid approach

4) Repeat 1

'A Slap in the Face': Federal Employees Feel Betrayed by Democrats' Shutdown Cave "I would rather be an actual pawn. At least pawn sacrifices are calculated and achieve something."

I heard from a bunch of federal employees last night and this morning. They aren't happy.

"I would rather be an actual pawn. At least pawn sacrifices are calculated and achieve something. All this for a fucking meaningless vote."

A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

Not a word from the ADL’s Jonathan Greenblatt on Tucker hosting Fuentes. Amazing.

I just checked his Twitter feed and plenty on Mamdani and even Norway (!) but not a word about a top conservative podcaster hosting an infamous Holocaust denier.

Greenblatt is beyond parody at this point.
