If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."
John Brown’s raid on Harpers Ferry began on this day in 1859.

Someone shot up my kid's school today, and our governor is paying tribute to a guy who thought that is an acceptable price to pay for having the Second Amendment.

Thinking about the 1969 Piazza Fontana bombing and how Italy's security services blamed it on anarchists, arrested nearly 100 activists and threw one of them out the 4th floor window of the police station.

The bombing was carried out by a neo-fascist group with ties to the state security services.

i personally feel neutral from a safety standpoint because FBI agents suck at doing all those things

but i feel bad for D.C. residents, absolutely
FBI agents are not trained to patrol streets. And every agent that is assigned to do that is NOT investigating:

*foreign spies stealing gov’t and trade secrets
*foreign and domestic terrorist threats
*crimes like fraud, corruption, trafficking, and violent crimes (among others)

Do you feel safer?

Seeing the muskrat cry on live TV about his stock prices added 50 years to my lifespan. I hope the price plummet to 0. I hope it goes BELOW 0. I hope he becomes so economically worthless he offs himself.

"The Israelis shot and killed an innocent young woman and then caused the death of her unborn baby, too.

Shocking, right? Depraved? Murderous? And yet, as of Monday morning, there was no mention of Sundus Shalabi on...the New York Times or the BBC" - me, for Zeteo:

I'm just a guy with a podcast and even I said on record that this is what Trump wants months before he was elected. I did so by simply talking to people who research the far right and being an anti-fascist for years.

If only the NYT has access to the same information I have.

My latest piece for Zeteo on the ongoing, brazen and shameful double standards in our media coverage of death and suffering in the Middle East.

i’m not a math guy but it seems like they could’ve paid the rent for 100 apartments for close to a decade for the same price and with none of the atrocities, civil rights violations, etc.
In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse.

The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million
Louisiana coerced unhoused people into an unheated warehouse – and paid $17.5m for it
Dozens of New Orleanians were bused to a site with insufficient heating and blankets days before the city is to host the Super Bowl
