Having watched with growing alarm the developments of the last 24 and 36 hours in Washington, I thought I’d take a stab at how the US media would cover this story if it was happening in a foreign country. Here’s that story that should be written this weekend: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-s-jun...

A dangerous bill sanctioning anyone who works with the International Criminal Court is moving quickly through Congress.
H.R. 23 would harshly punish lawyers, academics, and rights advocates — and their family members — for helping the ICC pursue justice for war crimes and other atrocities.

Protecting the right to seek asylum is not just a moral obligation — it is a legal right protected by federal and international laws.

I have a suggestion for you. In times of trouble and strife, there is therapeutic benefit in being among trees and in physical contact with them. So if you can, go hug a tree today, the bigger the better. This huge old chinkapin oak is known as The Great God Tree.

Just days into Trump's new administration, the Office of Gun Violence Prevention website now shows a 404 "page not found."
This is mere months after former U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy declared gun violence "a public health crisis."

If you find that your uninformed personal opinion disagrees with expert consensus on a technical topic, please consider that “all the experts know something I don’t” is a much more likely explanation than “I alone solved a complex problem that all the world’s experts have long been studying.”

Not all FBI background checks are created equal. As it turns out, Hegseth's background check didn't include his ex-wives or the woman who accused him of sexual assault. That's not an oversight. The FBI is letting itself be party to a whitewash. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/the-fbi-ba...
The FBI background check on Pete Hegseth is a whitewash—and that's on purpose!
The incoming Trump administration is trying to cover-up the FBI's investigation even before it takes office

Hundreds of Mexican Firefighters arrived both today and yesterday in Southern California, to assist with the ongoing Wildfires in Los Angeles County. Most are with the National Forestry Commission and the Civil Relief Corps, with others coming from the Mexican Army.
