@epicdemiologist My 6th grade teacher back in 1972 offered extra credit if we memorized the preamble. On the appointed day we took turns standing up and proclaiming it. A half-century later, I still know every word!

#Republican governors in #Virginia, #Texas, #Nebraska & #Missouri are mobilizing #NationalGuard #troops to help #LawEnforcement manage #demonstrations.

There will be “zero tolerance” for violence, destruction or disrupting traffic, & “if you violate the law, you’re going to be arrested,” VA Gov #GlennYoungkin told reporters.

In MO, Gov #MikeKehoe issued a similar message, vowing to take a proactive approach & not to “wait for chaos to ensue.”

#Nebraska’s governor on Friday also signed an emergency proclamation for activating his state’s #NationalGuard, a step his office called “a precautionary measure in reaction to recent instances of civil unrest across the country.”
Organizers say that one march will go to the gates of #Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in #Florida, where #Republican Gov #RonDeSantis warned demonstrators that the “line is very clear” & not to cross it.

And violence instigated by Police will be blamed on protestors.

Glenn Youngkin can bite me. The Falls Church police gave us a thumbs up as they drove through our protest.

Today in 1648, 377 years ago: in Hartford County (United States) there is a great storm that flips almost all the forests in the area but leaves no victims.

#OnThisDay



Good morning! It's undecided if sun or clouds will win out here today. Regardless, nothing will dampen my spirits. I have high hopes that the #NoKings activities will see a large turn out.

June 14 has always been special as it is my father's birthdate. He would have been 98 today. The fact that Dad's birthday fell on Flag Day always was fitting. He graduated first in his class from the Coast Guard Academy + served proudly. Honor and truth meant everything. I'll be channeling him #Today.

🌎La Tierra sobrepasa otro límite planetario: la acidificación de los océanos supera niveles críticos.

Un estudio publicado este lunes indica que este indicador clave del cambio climático se superó en 2020 en algunas zonas del planeta. La acidificación supone un riesgo grave para la vida marina y amenaza la sostenibilidad de la pesca.

Watching F1 Academy for the first time… it’s something. So much action between safety cars.

fair to be careful. There’s very little coverage of f1 academy even online that it was fascinating to know the drivers.

Why do I write? last night I dreamed the killer from Day of the Jackal had his special custom rifle aimed at #JamesBond (Roger Moore) during a day-long card game and I need an outlet for the stuff that comes out of my head, otherwise I'm going to go nuts.

Why do I write? Last night I dreamed that a murder victim was stuffed into a large duffel bag and hung from a ski lift chair. The police discovered the body and it was still twitching. I need an outlet for all this stuff in my head - It's that simple.

Offhand, I'd say this is a great opener for a novel: " Last night I dreamed that a murder victim was stuffed into a large duffel bag and hung from a ski lift chair. The police discovered the body and it was still twitching"


Pax is excited. Today is a long-anticipated day for many of us. It is the day of #NOKINGS protests. Our family will be participating. We hope you will be able to join us.

Please have a great day and stay safe!💕

Here's NYTs lede for story describing the Marines detaining an American veteran. It doesn't even get the stated purpose for the deployment correct, which is to protect federal resources and law enforcement. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/13/u...

Oops: Military ‘Detains’ US Citizen in L.A.

I’m not a lawyer, I don’t even play one on the electric teevee machine, but even I know that this is very bad: LOS ANGELES/WASHINGTON, June 13 (Reuters) - Marines deployed to Los Angeles temporarily detained a civilian on Friday, the U.S. military confirmed after being presented with Reuters images, in the first known detention by active-duty troops deployed there by President Donald Trump.
