"Anyone who attempted to behead the Hydra found as soon as one head was cut off, two more heads would emerge.
As Heracles severed each mortal head, Iolaus was set to the task of cauterizing the wounds.
When only the immortal head remained, Heracles cut it off too and buried it under a heavy rock."

Ukrainians truly need this right now — even if as a sign of solidarity. And constant, stubborn solidarity goes a long way.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

If the elites would just stop groveling and jockeying for quarterly gains for a minute and put their country above their leverage, we could roll up this circus in short order. Because it is the Lamest Show on Earth.

New: The FBI is quietly urging ICE agents to properly ID themselves in the field.
In a bulletin to law enforcement last month, it warned of criminals posing as ICE to rob, rape, kidnap—a problem it says now demands national coordination to confront.
