MadTownGuy म्हणाले...: Anti-Israel protests erupts into violence outside the DNC Headquarters in DC - sparking police to make dozens of arrests as activists try to storm the building

"A pro-Palestine protest outside the Democratic National Committee headquarters in Washington D.C. has erupted into violence.

Police have already made several arrests after 150 activists 'violently' attempted to storm the building on Wednesday night.

Hundreds of protesters gathered to call for a ceasefire in the Israel Gaza conflict, but clashes quickly began between demonstrators and DC Metro police.

Shocking footage from the scene shows police attempting to drag protesters away from the entrance to the DNC building as they chant 'let us live'.

The U.S. Capitol Police is now urging the public to avoid the area amid the chaos."

Lem Vibe Bandit म्हणाले...: That is a remarkable stat however. If true.

I heard on the radio: “1 in four military child is in the autistic spectrum.”

The reason it caught my attention enough not to forget it is that I have a sister married to a military veteran and they have a son on the… yeah.; १५/११/२३, १०:१६ PM

wildswan म्हणाले...: I asked ChatGPT to explain Schrodinger's Cat in the style of Finnegan's Wake. The result was ... impressive, especially because it was done in two seconds.

"In the spirit of Finnegan's Wake, where words dance like a chaotic river, let's dive into the linguistic labyrinth of Schrodinger's cat.

Imagine the cat as H.C.E., the protagonist of Finnegan's Wake, existing in this liminal space between existence and non-existence, between life and death. The box is like a waking dream, a language box, if you will, and opening it would collapse the superposition of meanings into a singular reality.

In the Wake's playful prose, the cat becomes a symbol of linguistic ambiguity, a feline fancy frolicking in the flux of signification. The "alive" and "dead" states of the cat echo the dualities and contradictions inherent in language. It's as if Joyce himself is playing the role of the quantum observer, shaping the narrative possibilities with the act of linguistic observation.

So, in the grand tapestry of Finnegan's Wake, Schrodinger's cat might be seen as a linguistic leprechaun, a paradoxical pixie, dancing on the borders of meaning and nonsense. It's a linguistic riddle wrapped in a dream wrapped in a quantum enigma, where words wink and nudge, inviting the reader to join the dance of uncertainty."; १५/११/२३, ११:२८ PM
gadfly म्हणाले...: MINNEAPOLIS — Former Minneapolis police Officer Derek Chauvin is making a third attempt to overturn his federal civil rights conviction in the 2020 murder of George Floyd, saying new evidence shows that he didn’t cause Floyd’s death.

Dr. William Schaetzel, of Topeka, Kansas, told Chauvin that he believes Floyd died not from asphyxia from Chauvin’s actions, but from complications of a rare tumor called a paraganglioma that can cause a fatal surge of adrenaline. The pathologist did not examine Floyd’s body but reviewed autopsy reports.; १६/११/२३, ४:०० AM
wendybar म्हणाले...: Jeez....I wonder if the FBI will spend the next 4 years identifying every single one of these insurrectionists to arrest and throw in the DC gulag without a trial for the next couple of years?? https://twitchy.com/dougp/2023/11/15/insurrection-far-left-pro-palestine-protesters-clash-with-police-outside-dnc-hq-in-washington-dc-n2389855; १६/११/२३, ४:१६ AM

Chris Wray: A ghost bus?

Rep. Higgins: A ghost bus.

Chris Wray: I’m not sure I’ve used that term before.

Rep. Higgins: Okay. It’s pretty common in law enforcement. It’s a vehicle that’s used for secret purposes. It’s painted over. These two busses in the middle here. They were the first to arrive at Union Station on January 6, 500. I have all this evidence. I’m showing you a tip of this iceberg, Mr. Chairman. These two busses, Mr. Chairman, painted completely white, these busses are nefarious in nature and were filled with FBI informants dressed as Trump supporters deployed unto our Capitol on January 6."

"Following the hearing UltraMJTruth posted video of another set of ghost buses that rolled into Washington DC on January 6. According to witnesses the buses were allegedly filled with Antifa terrorists.
And guess who was escorting them?…
The police!"

Remember when Antifa Changed their Clothes?

Now that we’ve connected the dots that these “Ghost Busses” were filled with FBI Informants, it’s important to remember that there were Antifa members changing from their black attire into Trump gear on January 6.

Too bad this video did not get deleted.

Big Mike म्हणाले...: Nothing says “we want peace in the Middle East” like rampaging rioters in downtown Washington, DC. Will the Dumbocrats rethink their position on gun control after facing rioters yelling for their blood? Probably not. Self defense is too complicated for their little brains.; १६/११/२३, ८:२२ AM
mikee म्हणाले...: Watched the Biden press thing last night. He read, from a list on his podium, the names of reporters, who then asked him questions that apparently were prearranged, because he certainly looked to be reading his answers from papers on his podium. Looked to be reading, because every minute or so he'd wander off-script and start talking about wearing onions in his belt.

My spouse, a physician, whose mother died this year of dementia, diagnosed him as stage 4 dementia, perhaps already in stage 5.

Mike (MJB Wolf) म्हणाले...: As a follow-up to Hillary's ridiculous "Palestinian moms are just like us" BS yesterday, there's this first-hand accouint of a survivor of the 10/7 attack (I've bolded the parts Hillary should know):

Eran Smilansky, a 28-year-old potato farmer, watched Gazan children go from house to house in his kibbutz on Oct. 7. Hamas terrorists followed. The boys laughed as the gunmen shot or dragged away Israeli families.

“They were like young, young kids,” said Smilansky, who defended his home from terrorists for more than six hours that day. “They were going in front of the terrorists, laughing with their friends and looking very calm. I remember thinking, What the fuck?”

Smilansky was one of a dozen survivors of the Nir Oz massacre who told the Washington Free Beacon they witnessed boys or women from the Gaza Strip looting the kibbutz, helping the armed terrorists, and apparently enjoying themselves. The youngest children were around 10 years old, according to several of the survivors, one of whom provided photographs of some of the women and children he saw. The survivors spoke at a hotel in Eilat, Israel’s Red Sea resort town, where most of them have been temporarily relocated.; १६/११/२३, ८:५३ AM

Something from that link got me to wondering... are the people who insist there is plenty of open space for solar/wind projects the same ones who have, for years, been hectoring people to reduce their consumption because we're running out of landfill space? I suspect may of them are.; १६/११/२३, ३:०२ PM
