Bathed in the light of the setting Sun, that’s a Boeing 737-86N (HP-1726CMP) transiting the nearly full Moon Monday over the Space Coast.

Copa Airlines 445 was traveling from Orlando (MCO) to Panama City (PTY) @ 19,250ft & 389 kts.

“They didn’t treat people like they were American.” In Chicago last month, federal agents carried out one of the most aggressive immigration operations in recent memory, sweeping up dozens of U.S. citizens who were detained in the middle of the night. nyti.ms/3Jgpxob

While visiting Manzanar during a rainstorm, the sun came out to create a rainbow in the background while I photographed the memorial obelisk built in 1943 by the Japanese who were interned there.

With attacks on speedboats in the Caribbean Sea, President Trump has ordered the summary execution of people who may not have committed the crime of which he accused them, the editorial board says. “It is a violation of legal due process that should alarm all Americans.”
Opinion | No President Should Have This Kind of Power
Even if the allegations are correct, blowing up the boats is a lawless exercise in the use of deadly force.

New by me - although Citrix say there is no evidence of exploitation of CitrixBleed 2 vulnerability, they are wrong - it has been under active exploitation since mid June by an IP associated to a ransomware group, with multiple IP addresses now involved.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.
