Interesting. It reminded me of something back in the day....can't quite put my finger on it.

Yet.; 6/30/20, 1:33 PM

"In a new video released by the Center for Medical Progress (CMP), Planned Parenthood and abortion industry officials give sworn testimony describing how babies born alive with beating hearts in their facilities are then harvested for organs."

Sworn. Testimony. Of. Infanticide. For. Organ. Harvesting. Of. Babies.

Now that's what I call "Inga Proud".

rehajm said...: Here's some fun stuff from FiveThirtyEight about Biden's lead:

...However, the Electoral College looks like it could still give Trump an advantage, just like it did four years ago. It’s hard to see that advantage now because Biden leads in nearly every swing state, but if you look at each state’s polling average relative to the national polling average3 (the rightmost column in the table below), you get a sense of whether the state is redder or bluer than the country as a whole. As you can see, by this metric, many of these states lean more toward Trump than the country does. That means that, if the overall race tightens, those states could slide into Trump’s column, allowing him to once again win a majority of electoral votes even if Biden wins the national popular vote.

Right now, according to our polling averages, Florida would be the “tipping point” state of the election — the state that will give a candidate his 270th electoral vote. (In other words, if Biden wins every state above Florida in the table, and Trump wins every state below Florida, both would still be short of 270 electoral votes. So whoever won Florida would win the election.)...

Take a quick looksie at those states 538 says are below FL- AZ PA NC OH GA IA TX.

They can talk all day about Biden's double digit lead in national polling, but he still isn't going to win CA twice in one election.; 6/30/20, 2:26 PM

madAsHell said...: This is frightening.

Remember the two black teenage boys that stole an SUV, and then drove it around the Seattle CHOP spraying 9mm. The audio here seems to indicate that the driver of the stolen SUV was executed.

At the end of the video, you can hear someone proclaim "We've got two dead!".

The engine of the SUV is gunned, and another comment of "Oh, you're not dead!"

"Yo, dude! Do you want to get pistol whipped!"

BOOM! Watch the pedestrian crossing the street jump at the noise.

This video is clearly from the video cameras mounted on the side of the Seattle Police East Precinct building (camera is clearly visible in google maps), but the only source is some guys twitter feed. I can't find copies on the local news channels, youtube, or the Seattle Police blotter. Caveat emptor!!; 6/30/20, 4:47 PM

There were also at least two Charlottesville incidents. One, where they trapped a policy car and the officer inside. Another, in Miami, where they attempted the same, but the officers were ready, and they were not alone. So much for Antifa-constructed kill-zones for public spectacles and published propaganda. #HateLovesAbortion

... and, on a foward-looking basis, excess deaths, too. Here's to penumbras and emanations, the Twilight Amendment, and social progress.; 6/30/20, 6:09 PM

After a year Eva comes out of a coma. Still suffering from memory loss she returns to the suburbs, while her husband Peter is locked away in an institution. After a daring prison escape Steef has two priorities: finding his son and taking revenge on Eva. New neighbors Steffi and Lex move into the neighborhood. They are unaware of last year's drama and are preoccupied with a secret of their own.

wildswan said...: These pictures are so beautiful. As I've said, they inspired me to get up and take similar pictures of Lake Michigan, only when the alarm went off it was quite early and the sun hadn't even come up so how could I? But I still enjoy.; 6/30/20, 6:24 PM
Jon Ericson said...: Lol.
I mean you can't take them seriously.
Well, I guess Inger can.

While we await details of this tragic killing, it highlights capitalism’s brutality & endemic violence. Our movement rejects insinuations & falsehoods perpetuated by corporate & conservative media that this violence is outcome of CHOP or of our movement. https://t.co/AsbMeUiRgp

Michael K said...: Earth to Inga #25.

Increasing numbers of Houston residents have reportedly been diagnosed with COVID-19 after attending protests against the death of George Floyd.

Large protests began in the city days after the death of Houston native Floyd, an unarmed black man who died while police custody in Minneapolis, Minnesota on May 25. Texas has been experiencing a surge of new COVID-19 cases. Harris County, which encompasses Houston, has been adding hundreds of new cases each day to the more than 17,000 total confirmed cases reported as of Monday.

buwaya said...: One of the little international realities no-one tells you is that if you are leaving the US, and you still have US services needed, like credit card, bank or brokerage accounts, and a great deal else, is that you need, almost always, a US cell phone number to receive security confirmation texts. Therefore you need to retain a US mobile device, with international service enabled.

I have tried pseudo-US phone number alternatives, one by Skype, and these do not seem to be OK for this function.; 6/30/20, 9:49 PM
buwaya said...: What is getting no play in US media -

All the hysteria in the US re Covid is devastating to the global economy. The US is the worlds greatest market and entrepot. Reluctance to "open" in the US hurts dozens of, among others, third-world countries that have been hit brutally hard by the general crippling of world trade.

The decline of shipping services means, for one thing, that container and bulk cargo ships sailings are cancelled, if they have endpoints in the US, as the trade with global ports on these routes is also cut off. Cargoes are stacked up in ports across the world, and there are also, conversely, shortages of goods across the world.; 6/30/20, 9:56 PM
