Most U.S. media remains way too deferential to a rogue Administration run by a slovenly hateful childish know-nothing, & closer to home I’m noticing that friends & relatives are self-censoring. Preemptively caving to authoritarian control helps the authoritarian usurp control — don’t do it.

Meanwhile his MAGA-sty didn’t have a great week — his shutdown of the gov't is unpopular, & his threats to cut gov't programs that “they” like (by which he means Democrats) is backfiring b/c even his most diehard supporters realize that...

“480 Minutes” - Autumn Chill

It would appear that Autumn has arrived here in NYC as temperatures plummeted by about 20℉ in the past couple of days. Perfect for me, perhaps not for thee.

I don’t think it was ever invalidated or annulled or anything, but it is apparently no longer the law of the land.

“480 Minutes” - Posse Comitatus

Anyone remember the Posse Comitatus Act? It was a cute little law which sounded like a 90s rap group but in fact made it illegal for the president to use the military for domestic policing?
