Back in the late 90s, I began researching this hard #SciFi #SpaceExploration tale.

Along the way, I anticipated developments like #AR (the "Visors") and a dangerously expansionist Russia ("Yefremov").

(Never saw a dime from the former!) 🤷‍♂️

1) As usual, @kylekulinskishow.bsky.social cuts right to the center of the matter.

These murderous scumbags are functioning as though there will *always* be cover for their BLATANTLY, SELF-EVIDENTLY ILLEGAL acts.

But there won't be.

Pete Kegsbreath, Secretary of Murder, will HAVE to answer for his crimes.

Note: NOT "War Crimes," because we are not at war. But even if we were, "double-tapping" (i.e., circling back to kill survivors) *would* be a War Crime.

This is NOT normal!!

“Don’t Be a Sucker,” a film made in 1943 by the U.S. Department of War, shows how fascists weaponize prejudice to divide and take over nations.

I hate to say it, but any service members who carried out that order to murder defenseless people in the water also need to answer for that.

"I'm sorry sir, due to article 92 of the UCMJ I cannot obey that order" is the ONLY lawful response
Sens. Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) and Jack Reed (D-R.I.) issued a statement Saturday vowing to conduct “vigorous oversight” on Caribbean strikes after a report surfaced that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered the U.S. military to “kill everybody” aboard an alleged drug vessel.

Welp, Piggy's at it again
Keep asking the important questions.

The word "Traitor" gets bandied about quite a bit, especially by Piggy and his minions.

But in this case, it *LITERALLY* applies.

There will be hell to pay, hopefully soon!

1) A note about #PredatorBadlands:
I am really troubled by many of the negative reviews for this film.

There is no WAY we are ever going to see a pristine copy of the Epstein files unless some brave mensch has them squirreled away in some deep data crypt against the day they can be released without that individual suddenly developing "suicidal tendencies."
🚨 NEW/EXCLUSIVE: The FBI turned over dozens of emails to me in response to my #FOIA request that provides a behind-the-scenes look at discussions involving the review and redaction of the Epstein files

She is one with the Force, so a powerful ally it is!
This is who she was.
Passionate in her beliefs. Fiercely loyal to her friends. Never afraid to let you know exactly where she stood. The best.

Fun Fact: I remember arguing with her over which of us hated Piggy the most. I was sure I did. She disagreed. It remains unresolved...
Carrie Fisher was the blueprint.
Protect your people. Call out the predators.

He can still do a lot of damage on the way down...

But make no mistake, he IS on the way down.

THREAD: One reason I haven't complained about Democrats this year is the simple math that 218 House Votes & 67 Senate Votes are required for impeachment.

There is no way Democrats, ALONE can save us. Less still if we actively erode them.

What we actually need is Republicans to defect. 🧵

If you haven't read the book...well, what the hell's the MATTER with you??

Regardless, if so, do NOT watch this trailer (I mean, unless you don't give a shit about spoilery things).

If you have (or don't give that shit), you MUST watch this!!

We get to glimpse Rocky!!!

You, @johnfetterman.com, serve no purpose in the world.

You are, in point of fact, the OPPOSITE of useful.

Your existence constitutes a net LOSS for the universe.

You're a COMPREHENSIVE Disappointment.

And MANY people will suffer and die because of your unworthy self.

Might wanna see to that..

The GOP has devolved into a flaccid, fascist gaggle of acolytes to the worst person EVER.

The Dems have devolved into a timid, timorous herd of invertebrates, chronically, INCURABLY incapable of holding even the brightest of lines.

It's time to flush the whole works!

BUH-bye, @schumer.senate.gov
Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.

Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.

The American people need more from their leaders.
