Expect Israel to lie and deflect about this. Like the October 2023 Al-Ahli hospital bombing, this is a trial balloon to see what they can get away with. A number of western leaders will likely assist in this, as they did with Al-Ahli.
Israel just fired a missile from a drone into a “Freedom Flotilla” ship carrying humanitarian aid for Gaza. It was anchored near Malta at the time.

giving cops more license for cops to use it however
“The new charge would be a class B misdemeanor and apply if someone wears a mask or covers their face with the intent of concealing their identity while committing a class A misdemeanor or felony or immediately fleeing the scene”

They’re, of course, hanging this on Jews (WHO DO NOT WANT THIS)
Gov. Hochul, lawmakers strike deal on new crime of wearing mask while evading arrest
The deal between Hochul and the Legislature’s Democratic majorities clears a major hurdle to a final budget deal.

The New England Patriots have touted the use of their team planes for humanitarian missions, but the aircraft also seem to be commissioned for much darker purposes.

i think people are missing the forest for the trees with this one. RFK Jr wants complete centralized knowledge of every American's health in order to exact control on what medications are allowed and in order to fabricate "evidence" for each and all of his nonsense theories.
Gun registry? No. Autism registry? Yes?

Bukele is practically drooling at the prospect of being the Abu Ghraib for the Americas.

It’s only a matter of time before Trump starts sending US citizens to him for dissent crimes.
“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

This bill would be disastrous and we have to do everything we can to stop it from becoming law.

That democrats are still pushing for this despite a fascist in the oval office is indicative of the uniparty nature of our government. Giving Trump this kind of power is suicidal.

people regularly ask me what they should do to prepare for the possibility of mass violence and civil unrest. we give this advice often on It Could Happen Here but this is my list of advice in no specific order:
take a stop the bleed course. get to know your neighbors. Organize in your community. learn about storing food and filtering or otherwise obtaining fresh water. explore radio / ham comms. learn about disaster preparedness. Volunteer.
