PSA: When there’s a difference between what you feel and what you’re supposed to feel, and you make an effort to correct that, that is called emotion work. When your job is getting paid to do emotion work – the smiling face at MickyD's, flight attendant, even sex work – that’s emotional labor.

The phrase you're looking for is Obstruction of Justice. They are taking witnesses to the ICE detention center. Witnesses.

Watching this in particular. The effort to take witnesses to Whipple, as well as the police refusing to leave the scene, are key.
Per this report ICE has detained several witnesses
ICE attempted to order local police from the scene of the Minneapolis shooting, but the police chief refused and instructed his officers to preserve the crime scene.

Unless the *federal government* very quickly commits to a clear and credible investigation and to hold wrongdoers accountable, all hell is about to break loose.
But we have every indication that is what they want so they can further escalate and declare an insurrection.

Wael spoke to the media in November and talked about how he’s not just losing a caregiver, he’s losing his best friend.

His dad was granted permission to remain in the US.

He was detained at his immigration check in.

He was complying and they took him anyways… and it cost Wael his life:

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.

He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.

At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.

Wael died on Friday at age 30.

ICE caused his death.

They didn’t get to say goodbye.
Disabled son of ICE detainee dies after 30 days of hospitalization
It had been months since Wael Tarabishi seen his father. The family is calling on ICE to release Maher Tarabishi so he may attend his son's funeral.

What a pathetic little power trip. These fuckers should all be barred from working in law enforcement, running for office, owning a weapon. If you signed up for this, you need to go down for this.

There's a lot of buzz about Christian revival among young adults in the UK & US. Perceptions of revival are fueled by results from opt-in online surveys. However, these surveys may be misleading. Surveys from random samples of the population don't show any clear evidence of revival.

My new post:
Has there been a Christian revival among young adults in the U.K.? Recent surveys may be misleading
Despite the widely recognized decline of Christianity in the U.K., there have been persistent rumblings of a Christian resurgence.

Every single day for the last year has been a hellscape of incompetent, irresponsible and idiotic decision making.

And why? My brother thinks Dear Leader hates WHO because he blames them for COVID. If they just had just not reported it, it wouldn't have happened!
🇺🇸👀 The US has formally completed its withdrawal from the World Health Organization, leaving behind unpaid debt of roughly $260 million, - Bloomberg

All funding to the WHO has been terminated and US participation in WHO-sponsored leadership bodies and working groups has ended.

All while republicans falsely accused Jack Smith of taking orders from the president about who to prosecute.
NEW:

Trump just said Jack Smith "should be prosecuted for his actions."

He adds: "At a minimum, he committed large scale perjury!"
