They are sacrificing Andrew in hopes that no one will examine Epstein’s slimy financial connections to The Firm.

After all, the pedophilia was the side benefit for those in the money laundering club and so much more is bound to be discovered, like the Panama Papers.

“I was following orders” obviously won’t hold up in court, but this admin commits daily fuckery. If the orders read that the “narcoterrorist vessel” fired first on a US ship how much time is there for due diligence?

Top brass can write the orders so that it looks like the attack is justified. The Naval officer wooo up of not know that the orders were fraudulent and illegal.

There was an earlier study that showed girls succeed in math when their female teacher has strong math skills but lose ground if the teacher doesn’t. It didn’t seem to make a difference with boys.

The members of the National Guard have “real” jobs which often can’t be held vacant. So these poor sots are separated from family and better paying jobs to do performative work for a fascist who doesn’t give a rip about them, and may not have a job to return to.

It’s beyond that. We get multiple calls a day about selling our home. Nothing works to end the harassment: answering & insisting on “do not call,” ignoring, laughing maniacally, or explaining that we would have sold 546,273 calls ago if we were so inclined. Also Medicare Advantage calls…

Sure…just like students use Photomath or Wolfram Alpha to engage more deeply with math questions, as they mindlessly copy the steps and the answer onto their papers.

Did they learn enough yo pass an assessment? 🤣

Epstein hosted slime ball pedophiles as well as powerful folks caught in his web that he wanted to curry favor with (or swindle).

Release the files so we can transparently separate the slimeballs from the dumbasses who should have known better than to associate with Epstein.

We know that they are looking for a spark to justify martial law.

OTOH the kidnappers are avoiding areas (East LA for one) where people might fight back and instead grandstanding in MacArthur Park.

Amazingly, about 80% of the people at the June 14th No Kings rally in my town were boomers. They understand the stakes.

A small comics panel, with a drawing of a King ace of spades playing card drawn in the style of traditional playing cards, but with the features of King George III, and the upper portion resembles Trump. Excerpts from the Declaration of Independence are written small around the card. Each of these phrases refers specifically to the injustices imposed by the King (and connect to this current moment – references to Tariffs, to transporting us overseas…)
At top in Large letters – “DISCARD.” At Bottom, #NoKings and my info: Nick Sousanis @nsousanis.bsky.social www.spinweaveandcut.com

single image closeup on the face of lady justice, in the background, all dark, human figures, faceless prisoners, seated, packed tightly together, bodies merging into a sea of heads, with each figure’s head another’s back. At top in large letters right above her head, text reads "Due process is not optional"
A smaller caption box centered on her face where her blindfold would be reads: "No matter who you are."

We’ve discarded a king before, we must do it again. #NoKings

A small comics panel - foreground lady justice holding the scales in one a prison cell in the other a court house. In the background, all dark, human figures, faceless prisoners, seated, packed tightly together, bodies merging into a sea of heads, with each figure’s head another’s back. 
Caption at top “What Process is Due?”
Text caption: “Succinctly, due process means no one shall be deprived of “life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.” 
Next Caption: “this is not optional."
This next caption is now on the scales of justice - right about the prison cell side: “Before bringing down the power of the state to remove a person’s rights,”
Caption, above the other side of the scale, wherein a courthouse is held: “we raise up the protection of the law, this extends to everyone -“
caption now right over where Lady Justice’s blindfold is, obscuring it entirely: “No matter who you are.”
Caption below: “whatever we think of you, whatever you might have done,”
Caption: “it’s’ imperative everyone be treated fairly,”
final caption lower right: “to ensure freedome for all.” and here we see a tiny image of the statue of liberty’s torch and hand.

Given that the Heritage Foundation and their sponsors (Koch Bros) have held rehearsals for a constitutional convention, anyone who is disgusted by Project 2025 should vehemently oppose it from happening.

A few days ago, President Trump issued an executive order seeking to block all federal funding to NPR, the latest in a series of threats to media organizations across the country.

Congratulations! My good friend, HS history teacher, retired a year ago, and he is still educating, this time through social media, school board meetings, and the local newspaper.

I hope you are able to put your wisdom and love of history to good use!

Biden started to turn away from neoliberal policies and lost the support of the DNC corporate block. They forced him out and were pissed that he out-maneuvered them to get Harris the nomination.
