These are deeply evil men who are perjuring themselves so that a 70-year-old grandfather will die alone in federal prison for daring to stand up to their crimes.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Gabriel Fuentes, in dismissing Midway Blitz-related charges against Dana Briggs last week, said he was lifting restrictions on relevant video.
Today he made the video available through the clerk's office at no cost to the public. Here's the first.

As someone who regularly drives a tiny old car at night, I will say there is an issue with modern headlights on trucks being a safety hazard and imo worse than driving towards or being followed by someone who actually has their brights on and that is dangerous…
However, LEDs are not the issue lol

Far-right activists are trying to capture the U of O campus. This particular flag was used during the J6 insurrection attempt and more recently as a symbol for Charlie Kirk. Maybe most people just think it's patriotic but it's being used for far-right recruitment on campus.

Abolishing ICE is only the beginning. Have you looked at your local cops?

According to mappingpoliceviolence.us, police kill at least three people per day; from a meta analysis published in NYT, we now know the number could be six or even more.

Interesting summary of the case against private security in Idaho where the issue appears to be whether or not the sheriff had the authority to order them to arrest people.
No seats left at the criminal hearing for the town hall this morning. The KCRCC showed up for this one.
Today we’ll be hearing a motion to dismiss from the defendants (LEAR security guards). The judge has also handed out jury instructions in the event that the case moves forward. #idpol

Extrajudicial killings in Latin America is pretty much standard U.S. foreign policy if we’re being honest. What’s more interesting to think about is who’s the major beneficiary of this; who else wants control of drug trafficking in the south Caribbean? We all know trump can be played
On 2 Sept 2025, the US began bombing small “drug boats” in the Caribbean, then expanded to the eastern Pacific. At least 80 people have been killed across about 20 strikes. A senior SOUTHCOM JAG, Col Paul Meagher, warned in August these would be extrajudicial killings. He was ignored.
