I have a #tradition on #Independence Day (which until this year has been my “favorite holiday”. The tradition is to do something that feels “independent” and to do it alone. This year, I intend to watch #Supergirl in a theater, all by myself. I'm skipping #fireworks and #picnics and #baseball games (Sorry, #Tincups!)… Today its just me in the world that #DC has created for me… The “other DC.”
JAKE TAPPER interviewing election loser DAN GOLDMAN (Part 1) Me: Does Jake Tapper have a reputation for being biased in favor of Israel? I wonder this because he didn't seem to push back very hard on Goldman's assertion that he lost the election and got kicked out of a coffeeshop due to "growing antisemitism in the Democratic Party" (as opposed to the reality which is that his unflinching support of Israel's war on Gaza got him a no vote and likely the coffeeshop boot too). For instance, Bernie Sanders (also Jewish) is warmly accepted in the same circles.
Instagram's tool to help you control your #algorithm shows it's teeth when you seek to suggest words like "talk therapy". It instantly interprets words like that as desperate cry for help and then actually suggests that you seek that help OUTSIDE #Meta. It's very telling when you get to see what kind of user a site will actually try to disengage with... Like for instance, people who think therapy or psychology are interesting subjects.

No nonsense retired truck driver Teri Horton purchased a $50 million painting for a whopping 5 bucks. But even a Forensic DNA Authentication by FBI Agents can't get her a legitimate stake in the art business where value is subjective. She finds herself feeling like an uncouth reject from the art scene... much like the man who painted the picture she now owns.

The primary law preventing federal authorities from acting as local police without invitation is the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, which generally prohibits the use of the U.S. military for domestic law enforcement, alongside the constitutional principle of federalism (10th Amendment) reserving police powers to states and local governments, though exceptions like the Insurrection Act exist for severe unrest. * *Brennan Center for Justice

Para 🇻🇪 Desde 🇺🇸 No hagan ningún pacto con el anciano que se les ha acercado con su piel anaranjada, cabello amarillo y manos codiciosas que intentan robarle el honor a una mujer venezolana que se lo ha ganado con justicia. - Nosotros, el pueblo, hablamos con una sola voz. - El corazón de este hombre está pervertido; sus palabras caminan en la oscuridad. - Solo busca lo que puede arrebatar: minerales, riqueza, obediencia. - Es el único sobre quien nos hemos sentido obligados a advertir a los demás. - Los líderes anteriores fueron buenos; solo él trae el desequilibrio. - No confíen en él; sus promesas van en una dirección, sus acciones en otra. - Advertimos a las familias lejanas porque para nosotros ya es demasiado tarde. ENGLISH translation: To 🇻🇪 From 🇺🇸 Do not make any pacts with the old man who has come to you with his orange skin, yellow hair and grabby little hands that try to steal honor from a Venezuelan woman who rightfully earned it. - We, the people, speak with one voice. - This man’s heart is twisted; his words walk in darkness. - He seeks only what he can take — minerals, wealth, obedience. - He is the only one we have ever felt compelled to warn others about. - Leaders before him were good; he alone brings imbalance. - Do not trust him; his promises walk one way, his actions another. - We warn distant families because it is already too late for us.
