Oregon National Guard Adjutant General, General Gronewold says if they are federalized, that he will advise the Title 10 commander to utilize National Guard Troops to PROTECT protesters at ICE facilities. This is the right answer.

Btw, reading it allows us to understand what "klokard" or "klonvocation" are and to observe how this vocabulary can be relevant to current events.

CK inevitably reminds me of a klokard.

He held numerous klonvocations, where, through speeches and debates, he attempted to rally new recruits to the klan.

A must-read, even for French-speaking readers.

Chapter 7, on the link between feminism and the KKK, helps clear up many preconceived notions about the place of women in these supremacist movements and how they also contribute to the upholding of this ideology.

We really need to be thinking abt the current regime through the lens of the Second Klan, which helped to nationalize systems of Jim Crow state & vigilante violence & exploitation while creating an explicitly white nationalist immigration system. They even paraded down Pennsylvania Ave.

Que cette révision soit totalement ridicule et in fine sur des mythes suprémacistes Blanc, oui.

Qu'elle soit basée sur un ensemble d'éléments historiques fallacieux, oui.

Mais, réviser n'est pas négatif en soi.
Chaque ouvrage intitulé "Nouvelle histoire de" est révisionniste.

Je suis d'accord avec ce que vous écrivez concernant le PdF.
Cependant, la connotation négative que vous associez au terme "révisionniste" n'est pas pertinente.

L'histoire est constamment révisée par ceux/celles qui l'écrivent, à la lumière de nouveaux faits ou sous de nouveaux angles.

Vous vouliez dire "négationniste" plutôt que "révisionniste" ?

There is no need to compare ICE to a foreign group when the Klan—a home grown group of masked men who terrorized communities of color—is right there for comparison.

J'espère que vous n'aurez pas de taxes inattendues pour celui-là.

Je suis en France et votre livre est disponible neuf dans la librairie du coin à 8.90€. Il est intolérable qu'on vous en demande 15 fois ce prix.

À ce tarif mieux vaut faire fonctionner nos réseaux.

NEW—US Department of Education sent out standard Out of Office language to employees on Wednesday in light of shutdown. Later yesterday, workers tell me they found someone had updated their auto-responses without consent to a new one blaming Democrats.

Version of original on left, updated on right:

Thank you for your email. There is a temporary shutdown of the U.S. government due to a lapse in appropriations. I will respond to your message as soon as possible after the temporary shutdown ends. Please visit ED.gov for the latest information on the
Department's operational status.
Thank you.

Thank you for contacting me. On September 19, 2025, the House of Representatives passed H.R. 5371, a clean continuing resolution. Unfortunately, Democrat Senators are blocking passage of H.R. 5371 in the Senate which has led to a lapse in appropriations. Due to the lapse in appropriations I am currently in furlough status. I will respond to emails once government functions resume.

Affirmer que la race n'existe pas leur permet de naturaliser et renforcer les structures raciales historiques et dominées par les Blancs, tout en effaçant les termes permettant de les dévoiler, les analyser et les démanteler.

En somme de promouvoir une société raciste sans (selon eux) racistes.

C.J @stud01.bsky.social · 7d

Les individus qu'évoque @rafumab.bsky.social omettent (+/- volontairement) de saisir que si la race n'existe pas biologiquement, elle existe discursivement et demeure une relation structurelle servant à articuler et gérer les différences humaines plutôt qu'un simple contenu substantif.

À ceux qui commentent que “les gens du voyage ne constituent pas une race” sous mes publications dénonçant le racisme des panneaux interdit aux gens du voyage, je rappelle que l’argument avait déjà été tenté par ma grand-mère, au moment de son arrestation par les nazis.
Cela n’avait pas fonctionné.

Une ère de domination Blanche daltonienne s'exprimant par une domination Blanche continue, une expansion suivant des lignes socio-raciales du "Blanc" et une idéologie daltonienne proclamant simultanément un profond engagement anti-raciste tout en luttant contre toute forme de remédiation raciale.

Where catholicism, capitalism, and civilization are considered as a totality, it becomes difficult to conceive of any boundaries and not perceive any criticism/disagreement as evidence of impurity/inauthenticity.

Any Catholic who's not a Trumpist will therefore no longer be *truly* Catholic.

(Battle Hymn of the Republic continues playing)

And there’s the issue of masks. This Court has listened
carefully to the reasons given by Öztürk’s captors for maskingup and has heard the same reasons advanced by the defendant Todd
Lyons, Acting Director of ICE. It rejects this testimony as
disingenuous, squalid and dishonorable. ICE goes masked for a
single reason -- to terrorize Americans into quiescence. Small
wonder ICE often seems to need our respected military to guard
them as they go about implementing our immigration laws. It
should be noted that our troops do not ordinarily wear masks.
Can you imagine a masked marine? It is a matter of honor -- and
honor still matters. To us, masks are associated with cowardly
desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we
have never tolerated an armed masked secret police. Carrying on
in this fashion, ICE brings indelible obloquy to this
administration and everyone who works in it. “We can not escape
history,” Lincoln righty said. “[It] will light us down in
honor or dishonor, to the latest generation.” Abraham Lincoln,
Second Annual Message to Congress (Dec. 1, 1862).
