It was eerily quiet & bitterly cold in DC, Jan 6 Eve, as folks hunkered down for the approaching blizzard. The National Museum of African American History & Culture shines a light on the Washington Monument. There should be a new exhibit for a fine black President. It’s fitting they’re snowed out.

Not forgetting Alex Pretti was murdered for exercising his 1st amendment right to be armed with a phone. Renée Good was murdered and left alive and suffering without medical care for 8 minutes for legal driving that would be extremely unlikely to be considered a misdemeanour let alone a felony.
BREAKING: New Jersey Governor Sherrill is creating an online portal for New Jersey residents to report encounters with ICE agents. She wants you to record as much as you can!

I would like to give Nicki Minaj a piece of my mind but she deactivated her Instagram after losing 10 million and counting followers. So I will just redub her Nazi Magaj and move on.

Maher Tarabishi was detained in October during a scheduled check-in at an ICE facility.
He was the primary caretaker of his son, who died last week.
The family is seeking Maher's release so he can attend his son's funeral.
ICE reportedly denied the request.
Unimaginable cruelty.

This is going in one direction. More political assassinations and attempts like those that already occurred in Minnesota with Melissa Hortman. No humane individual could have dog piled onto the state after that massacre but MAGA did. This isn’t normal. Not even in an America long forged in violence.
Two Democratic members of Congress attacked in three days. Maxwell Frost was assaulted on Saturday, Ilan Omar tonight.

And there are Labour MPs who actually want Shabana Mahmood to replace Keir Starmer. She’s the poster-child of the nullification of that party as anywhere on the progressive left. She’s facilitated and advocates for the capitulation of what’s left of the UK centre left to the fascist, racist right.
UK gov is dehumanising people in a disgraceful attempt to pander to far right, instead of ensuring people can live w/ dignity.
They are desensitising violence and manufacturing consent for even more aggressive policy on migration, raids and deportations.
