WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment
"I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to
assess the victim.
At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

The BBC claims to have “research” that supports its decision to use abusive transphobic terms for trans women.
But it will not share that “research”.
At the most basic level research is not research if it is not published.
It is just a lie. The BBC is lying.

This is relevant to the bill currently in the Lords here in the UK too. The bill which came out of the commons with none of the safeguards that had been proposed.

Selon les critères proposés, je serais éligible pour l'euthanasie. Et avec la suppression de toute sanction pour l'incitation à "bénéficier" de l'aide à mourir, ça veut dire que des toubibs pourraient me le proposer avant un traitement.
Et vous savez quoi ? Ils se gênent déjà pas pour le faire, ça

Who funds the Free Speech Union?
Toby Young’s outfit went to court to hide its donors. Today we reveal that funders include US anti-abortion groups, Brexit politicians and Tufton Street insiders.

If this sounds like “the lesser races are a cancer that is eating away at the Reich, here’s how men of will will eradicate this disease” then that’s because that’s what it is. Chuck in a bit of encirclement, decadent art, historical grievance and Bolshevik intellectual menace, and it’s 1934.

This is the kind of shit that would make you completely outside the bounds of any ancient society, the gods bestow generational curses for violating hospitality
A few days ago, Fox News was whining about ICE agents getting heckled at a Mexican restaurant in Minneapolis.
Meanwhile, in the town of Willmar, ICE agents had lunch at a Mexican restaurant, waited until it closed, then confronted and arrested three workers as they left.

A few months ago, ICE hired me
I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable
And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!"

I pulled up next to one at 10:17am yesterday an snapped a photo. By 10:27 the agents I photographed were in front of my house, along with another vehicle that met them there. It's a 10 minute drive from where I took the photo to my house - so they got the data *instantly*
