Remember Joan Meyers, co-owner of the newspaper, who died of a heart attack the day after the illegal raid & seizure of property in her home (Aug '23). This $3M settlement from the county will not bring her back.
Her son Eric expects another, larger, settlement when the city loses its case. He plans to use the monies to support the newspaper or help reporters in rural USA.

The pair — along with admin officials & friends — recently launched #ExecutiveBranch, a $500,000-a-head membership club for #Trump-supporting business leaders to hobnob in DC.

These organizations have a collective ambition, according to #ChrisBuskirk, which is to give the businesspeople he sees as vital to the country’s future a role shaping #government & lasting #political #power.

It’s true #Trump started it all when, in his first presidency, he tried to bend this venerable #law enforcement agency for his own #personal & #political #gain. Trump frequently failed in that effort, but, as learned after 2 years of reporting, all the while he was quietly succeeding in destabilizing the institution’s foundations — & weakening its resolve with his brand of bare-knuckle attacks. That imperiled the rule of law that has long assured all Americans impartial & fair #justice.

Fashion as a Form of Resistance (Against Trump)
Assembly Required with #StaceyAbrams

#Fashion isn’t just functional — it’s #transformative. It can be a form of #political #speech, like when Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez #AOC made headlines in a white gown emblazoned with “Tax the Rich.”

It can also be a statement of #resistance, as when the #BlackPanthers adopted black berets, a uniform that came to symbolize unity and power.

Understanding the #language of fashion is key to understanding the times we live in. It’s a translator for anyone trying to navigate this moment and one of the ten steps to #reclaiming #freedom and #power as we challenge norms and assert our #identity.

Some Guy

Time for an #introduction!

Hello Fediverse!

I'm Some Guy, an #actuallyautistic human being who is passionate about supporting the #disability and #lgtbqia communities. While I frequently engage in #social and #political discussions, I'm here for fun and to meet similarly minded people.

As a fair disclaimer: I may come across as raw, abrasive, rough around the edges, or outrageous. I communicate literally, am pathologically honest, and straight to the point. I also have an off the wall sense of humor.

Been on #Mastodon and the #Fediverse since 2022 and just switched from mastodon.social for a greatly increased character count. Huge shout-out to friend and genuinely awesome person @cobalt123 for the referral. All interactions with the beige.party folks have been great.

It is interesting how the people who call you a #fascist are the first to attempt to silence you by having blocked on a #Mastodon instance for holding a different #political stance. It's almost like they don't see their own hypocrisy.

I shouldn't give them this advice, but they should understand that their hyperbole is killing the strength of their arguments. If they called people #nazis less and just argued the points, they would get farther. The anger and vitriol is wearing people out.

No one can trust that either party will *ever* do the right thing. #ItsUpToUs to make that happen.

#Trump memorandum brands #AntiFascism and opposition to #capitalism as #DomesticTerrorism

World Socialist Web SiteTrump memorandum brands anti-fascism and opposition to capitalism as “domestic terrorism”By treating political beliefs as the “animating threads” of terrorism, NSPM-7 provides a pseudo-legal justification for the persecution of individuals and organizations on the basis of their political convictions.

The identities of the #Iranians & their reasons for trying to immigrate to the #US were not immediately clear. In the past several years, there has been an increase in Iranian migrants arriving at the southern US border & crossing illegally, including many who have claimed fear of persecution back home for their #political & #religious beliefs.

“This represents millions of dollars of #research, potentially, that’s now being stopped,” one of the employees said, adding that Americans “aren’t going to benefit from the release of this #science.”

The move to halt the agency’s scientific research has prompted concern from scientists & environmental groups that findings could be altered to conform to the #Trump admin’s #political agenda [gee, ya think?].​
