The Recap: A look at Trump’s most bonkers lawsuit yet, and au revoir to affordable Ozempic twp.ai/E6ARLd


in reply to Paul Cantrell

“Crippling sanctions” is the letter-writers’ term, not The Guardian’s.

I hope, heaven willing, that some kind of damn is breaking.

in reply to Paul Cantrell

today, for the first time, I saw a U.S. senator call for an end to much of the U.S. support for Israel over the same issues. There does seem to be at least some real change starting to happen


My internet was down for just over 6 hours today, and my cell data was terrible. Was somewhat productive today, but kept running into issues with wanting to look up docs. At least it was only my internet that was out, so I was just back in the 1990s, not the 1890s.

Under the "Uniting for Peace" resolution, the UN General Assembly can mandate an armed emergency force to Gaza.

The UN General Assembly is not subject to veto. The US cannot stop it. This can work.

The current assault on international law stems from a far-right project begun in the 1970s.

The stated goal was to reverse-engineer the 20th-C (ie, dismantle democracy).

It has rocketed since billionaire-psychopaths (eg, Murdoch, Koch, broligarchs) have bought myriad governments globally.

The largest known verified natural pearl weighs 28 kg/61 lb! It was made by a giant clam, and is owned by a Filipino-Canadian man who inherited it through family. Giant clam pearls are not made of nacre (mother of pearl) like the iridescent gemstone pearls, which are produced most famously by Pinctada oysters. Instead they are made from the same material as the clam's shell, as the result of a rare deformity. Because of this, there are many fakes claiming to be giant clam pearls that are in fact smoothed fragments of the shell. Any shell must be confirmed by a gemologist or malacologist (hit me up!) #clamFacts



SUE is a badass! 🦖

A very powerful interview with GHF whistleblower, Anthony Aguilar:

"The [GHF] sites have not only *become* death traps. They were *designed* as death traps."

"All four distribution locations were intentionally, deliberately constructed, planned & built in the middle of an active combat zone."

The GHF sites are criminal. "I witnessed war crimes". "At the hands of the IDF & US contractors".

As page 12 of the government’s sentencing memo in Ghislaine Maxwell’s criminal case reflects, sex-abuse victim Virginia (Roberts) Giuffre was 17 years old when Maxwell, as @realDonaldTrump put it today, “stole” Giuffre from Mar-a-Lago.
