Joe Smith বলেছেন...: Was at a ceremony recently held on state property worth billions.

The lead speaker went on and on (and on) about acknowledging that this institution was being held on 'stolen and occupied land.'

They (don't want to presume gender) even listed the myriad tribes that used to live there.

My first instinct was to yell, "So give it back!" I refrained.

If I had the chance, I'd ask it if it owned a home and whether it intended to donate said house to some member of an aforementioned tribe.; ২১/৫/২৪, ৬:২০ PM

RCOCEAN II বলেছেন...: Great photos.

Thinks are looking up, a ray of sunshine in all the gloom. Netenyahu has been declared a war criminal by the ICC and warrant has been issued calling for his arrest.

On the basis of evidence collected and examined by my Office, I have reasonable grounds to believe that Benjamin NETANYAHU, the Prime Minister of Israel, and Yoav GALLANT, the Minister of Defence of Israel, bear criminal responsibility for the following war crimes and crimes against humanity committed on the territory of the State of Palestine (in the Gaza strip) from at least 8 October 2023:

1) Starvation of civilians as a method of warfare as a war crime contrary to article 8(2)(b)(xxv) of the Statute;
2) Wilfully causing great suffering, or serious injury to body or health contrary to article 8(2)(a)(iii), or cruel treatment as a war crime contrary to article 8(2)(c)(i);
3) Wilful killing contrary to article 8(2)(a)(i), or Murder as a war crime contrary to article 8(2)(c)(i);
4) Intentionally directing attacks against a civilian population as a war crime contrary to articles 8(2)(b)(i), or 8(2)(e)(i);
5) Extermination and/or murder contrary to articles 7(1)(b) and 7(1)(a), including in the context of deaths caused by starvation, as a crime against humanity;

Biden is now in position where he is helping a recognzied war criminal and rogue state commit obvious war crimes. Of course Biden has the morals of a common thief and grifter so I have no doubt he'll continue to help Netenyahu murder people while sitting at his beach house eating ice cream.; ২১/৫/২৪, ৬:২২ PM
Gusty Winds বলেছেন...: Hopefully those clouds produce some Purple Rain.

As Prince wished, we all want some miracle to fall from the sky to wash away the hurt we have done to others. The Purple Rain heals them and also offers redemption to the sinner filled with regret.; ২১/৫/২৪, ৬:২৮ PM

"Take a look at where he comes from." (Merchan was born in Columbia).

Trump is such a pig!; ২১/৫/২৪, ৬:৪৭ PM

Humperdink বলেছেন...: It has been reported the ICC (International Criminal Court) is planning to indict former President Obama for sending Seal Team 6 into a sovereign country (Pakistan) and assassinating a foreign national.

No word as to whether the Nobel Prize Committee is considering stripping Obama of his well-earned Peace Prize.; ২১/৫/২৪, ৭:২৮ PM
Joe Smith বলেছেন...: 'Trump is such a pig!'

And Joe was raised by Columbians and attended a Columbian church.

That's a fact Jack!

Oh, and Biden showered with his young daughter...; ২১/৫/২৪, ৭:৩০ PM
iowan2 বলেছেন...: 1) Starvation of civilians as a method of warfare

Almost without fail starvation is caused by Government.

You know who had food to eat? Hamas terrorists. Water, cooking oil, fuel.
All that stuff was in plentiful supply for the terrorists.

But the people are living in the 1800's, because aid for clean water and sewer was stolen, and repurposed to kill all the Jews.

I have no idea why you insist on defending such a murderous lot of terrorists; ২১/৫/২৪, ৭:৩৭ PM
Political Junkie বলেছেন...: Love the pink/purple/orange.; ২১/৫/২৪, ৭:৩৯ PM
Chuck বলেছেন...: Twenty-four hours ago, Althouse, you were doing a kind of a normalizing post on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. Real life body-building; owning the libs.

Here's one of your regular reminders what a completely dangerous kook she is; what an unstable malignancy she is in our national conversation. MTG on X; speculating about a Trump "assassination" plot.

As ever, MTG is on the lookout for the gazpacho police.; ২১/৫/২৪, ৭:৪১ PM
Scott Patton বলেছেন...: There's an Ikeda in there. Pretty much dead center in the first two pics; ২১/৫/২৪, ৭:৫০ PM
Political Junkie বলেছেন...: RCOCEAN II - I am neither Jew nor practicing Christian. You, RCOCEAN I, and the rest of the tribe, need to go back to the Middle East and complain about the Jews there. And please vote D - I am sick to think someone like you can vote the same way I do.

Cheers!; ২১/৫/২৪, ৭:৫২ PM

Still hiding from tornadoes

Red sky in morning, sailors take warning.

(On interactive radar it does look like a very dangerous and severe line of thunderstorms rolling through the entire state; I do hope you are safe.); ২১/৫/২৪, ৮:১৭ PM
Leland বলেছেন...: Storms look bad with possible hail. Stay safe.; ২১/৫/২৪, ৮:২২ PM

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves বলেছেন...: wow. wow. woooouh; ২১/৫/২৪, ৮:৪৭ PM
Christopher B বলেছেন...: @Chuck .. re MTG speculating about a Trump "assassination" plot.

Tell me why the Democrats are placing such a high priority on enacting a law stripping Secret Service protection if someone afforded that protection is convicted of a felony, if it is not to make it easier for someone to assassinate Donald Trump?; ২১/৫/২৪, ৯:০০ PM

Gospace বলেছেন...: Can't find the link, but there's noise going about that Jack Smith is planning to indict 200 Republican lawmakers in July. By which time most ballots for November will have been set.

All for insurrection on January 6th 2020.

Will that result in:
A. A republican electoral landslide as We, The People, realize that that's a complete slide to DemoncRAT totalitarianism?
or
B. A DemoncRAT electoral landslide as We, The People, take Jack Smith's word that Republicans are evil and crooked and belong in the gulag?
or
C. Instant hot civil war starting in July?; ২১/৫/২৪, ৯:৫৫ PM

"Can't find the link,"

Why is it that the Know Nothings can never find the link?; ২১/৫/২৪, ১০:১১ PM
Gospace বলেছেন...: Well, Mutaman, you're likely an expert on your own kind...

Threadreaderapp links are constantly changing, and the thread I read was linked from there. Makes it difficult to locate again. However, here's a link to people already prosecuted for daring to question election results.

meanwhile, former intelligence officials who signed a false statement that Hunter's laptop was Russian disinformation are walking free, immune from lawsuits.

And Ashley Biden's abandoned property magically became stolen property and Aimee Harris spent time in jail for selling it. Oh, and that wasn't real either- the media told us so... So how do you spend time in jail for selling something that isn't real? The mind boggles.; ২১/৫/২৪, ১১:০২ PM
imTay বলেছেন...: It seems like a waste of time to respond to the febrile lucubrations Chuck leaves here for us, but the press in Slovakia, and Europe in general have been demonizing Slovakia's Fico in the same way that the press here has been demonizing Trump, and Republicans in general. It wasn't that long ago that a Rachael Maddow fan went and shot up a softball practice where several Republican Congressmen were practicing.

How Fico’s attack forced the EU to confront its political vitriol

It's sad how regime news outlets like CNN are still demonizing Fico even as he recovers from the assassination attempt. This is known as "stochastic terrorism." You just create the environment of hatred with propaganda, and let some rube do your dirty work. Fico is called "divisive" by CNN despite handily winning his election. What "divisive" means, of course, is that resists the directives of the people running the EU, it can't be the clowns we see in the news, BTW, and instead, he put the interests of the Slovaks first.; ২১/৫/২৪, ১১:১৩ PM
gadfly বলেছেন...: Geospace:
PoliticsVideoChannel posted on August 3, 2023: "Looks like special counsel Jack Smith may indict the GOP members of congress who assisted Trump in conspiring 'to overturn the presidential election and overthrow the government.'"

Little is known about PoliticsVideoChannel, an account on X that links to a website that has posted a small number of mostly sensational stories. No indictments - but it's a good idea.; ২২/৫/২৪, ১২:২৭ AM
Joe Smith বলেছেন...: 'Little is known about PoliticsVideoChannel, an account on X that links to a website that has posted a small number of mostly sensational stories. No indictments - but it's a good idea.'

Fascism proceeding on schedule, and fascist, low-IQ liberals applaud on cue like the trained seals they are.; ২২/৫/২৪, ১২:৩০ AM
gadfly বলেছেন...: imTay:

Stochastic terrorism is the repeated use of hate speech or other vilifying, dehumanizing rhetoric by a political leader or other public figure that inspires one or more of the figure’s supporters to commit hate crimes.

CNN is not a political leader or public figure spouting hate speech.; ২২/৫/২৪, ১২:৩৭ AM
Humperdink বলেছেন...: "While the housing crisis is an issue across the country, an analysis of Realtor.com® affordability score data shows distinct trends separating red states, blue states, and the seven key swing states: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

On average, red states are more affordable than the US as a whole, and blue states are less affordable." (Via Realtor.com)

Anecdotal for sure, but an amusing set of stats. I am sure the tax bite tracks the same way.; ২২/৫/২৪, ৫:১৪ AM
wendybar বলেছেন...: When asked why we should point and laugh at "journalists", start with this list I saw on another blog...a few here still spew this nonsense today..

-Hands up don't Shoot Michael Brown hoax
-Russia collusion hoax
-The Trump cages for illegal alien children hoax
-The Trump praising neo-Nazis in Charlottesville hoax
-Jussie Smollett hoax
-Bubba Wallace hoax
-Covington kids hoax
-The bat soup Covid origins hoax
-The safe and effective mRNA "vaccine" hoax
-The Trump said to drink bleach hoax
-The Russia blew up its own Nordstream pipeline hoax
-The Ghost of Kyiv hoax
-The no inflation hoax

And the list goes on and on and on. It's rather depressing so many Americans are so easily duped by demonstrably false propaganda.; ২২/৫/২৪, ৫:৫৩ AM

imTay বলেছেন...: "CNN is not a political leader or public figure spouting hate speech"

That's a very convenient definition, for the side that has almost complete control of the media, isn't it. "Only the side that doesn't control the media can be guilty of stochastic terrorism..."

Yeesh. What happened to Steve Scalise and Rand Paul was due to media demonization, if it wasn't stochastic terrorism, the term doesn't mean anything.; ২২/৫/২৪, ৬:১০ AM

Mike of Snoqualmie বলেছেন...: Portland's Antifa prosecutor, Mike Schmidt, lost his reelection bid yesterday. His opponent, Nathan Vasquez, was leading 58 percent to 42 percent. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. Now he has time to don his black-block clothing and join his antifa buddies in rioting for his favorite barbarian causes.; ২২/৫/২৪, ৮:০০ AM
Mike of Snoqualmie বলেছেন...: Tornado destroys windmills in Iowa.

Just like hail destroying solar cells and a storm destroying floating solar cells. Don't have video for those.
