1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

They will make Trump a king out of a combination of true-believerdom, inertia, and fear of being murdered by their own base if they don't. The constitution is a spent force. The only checks left are mass public outcry and potential unrest.

Hey look, Israel broke the cease-fire, twice, in two different ways, within 24 hours - again.
NEW: Israel informed the UN it will permit only 300 aid trucks into Gaza daily, not the 600 mandated by the ceasefire it just signed.

According to a Florida dashboard tracking state arrests of undocumented people, under 0.5% of those have a gang affiliation, demolishing claims of going after “criminals.” They have also detained a disturbingly high number of Guatemalans and Mexicans, signaling targeting of that community.

Speaking of meal prep stuff: one of mine is to make mini-waffles and freeze them for breakfasts in a hurry and/or savory lunch options.
I par cook them (that’s why they’re so pale) so they can brown in the toaster.

"Our crisis is beyond elections. You cannot vote out the mafia. You cannot wait for a referendum on ongoing mass murder. But you can look evil in the eye and stand up for those targeted. You can hope that if you are targeted, someone will do the same for you."
They lied to you, then took the money you gave them and used it to pay more people to lie to you. I’m a bit suspicious of those who were on the payroll realizing only *now* that the Dems are in on the GOP con.
