"Former FBI director politically persecuted by adjudicated felon and rapist for doing his job forced to answer well vetted, unsupported charges."
It's almost like you guys don't know how to write a headline anymore.
Weird how you losing that CPB money is making their boots shine.

‘Slight tick up’ in air traffic controller call outs amid shutdown

Concerns about call outs at the FAA and TSA are punctuating the debate around the shutdown as air traffic controllers and security screeners work without pay.

The Trans Dept reports a slight uptick in air traffic controllers calling out sick. The shutdown is affecting 13,200 air traffic controllers and 61,000 TSA employees, who are working without pay. O not! TSA! That's DHS. Let it be so...

Did Air Traffic Controllers just start the general strike?!?? 🤝

“…Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy claimed that many air traffic control workers were calling out sick.”

Yesterday, near the end here, @hcrichardson.bsky.social: On October 18th, we have another No Kings Day. That demonstration that we do not support the loss of our democracy is really important. It needs to be NONVIOLENT, CHEERFUL, and JOYFUL, & it needs to reinforce the values of American democracy.

Let’s be clear: Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans forced a government shutdown tonight.

Rather than address the health care crisis that they created just earlier this year, they refuse to come to the table and do their jobs.

What happened to the art of the deal?

Trump: “It’s a war from within. We have to handle it before it gets out of control.”

Translation: Lots of Americans are anti-fascist. They are too smart and empathetic for our racist, xenophobic, elitist propaganda to work on so we need to have a civil war before we lose this manufactured crisis.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?

If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?

Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

As federal agents marched in Chicago this weekend, a top U.S. Border Patrol official told a WBEZ reporter that one of the factors in who agents are arresting is “the particular characteristics of an individual, how they look.”

Feds march into downtown Chicago; top border agent says people are arrested based on ‘how they look’

U.S. Border Patrol agents wearing tactical gear and carrying long guns made arrests in downtown Chicago and the River North neighborhood Sunday. “This is not making anybody safer — it’s a show of intimidation," Gov. JB Pritzker said.

The fact the governor of Illinois is beging for citizen coverage because media as a whole is intentionally not covering the governments terror campaign should be absolutely a five alarm fire if you are not already figuring out the federal government is at war against us.

Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · 9d

People of Illinois, we need your help.

Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.

We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.
