#NoPlaceofWelcomeorRefuge in all the world for these, whoβs rules of engagement are the same for 13 year olds and war.
#NoPlaceofWelcomeorRefuge in all the world for these, whoβs rules of engagement are the same for 13 year olds and war.
While avoiding the benefits due to service men and women of serving in a declared war zone. No place of refuge or welcome for MAGA. #NoRefugeorWelcome
And that none of the special coverage and benefits that accrue to serving in a Congressionally authorized war zone will apply to the sons and daughters in harms way. No welcome and no haven in all the world to these bastards
Young lives for old egos. Ever thus. No particular grace that Johnson, Nixon, McNamara, and Kissinger sent us to die, already knowing weβd lost, but were not themselves fools and incompetent like the current bunch.
Ah, MAGA. Look at your kids. Primed for the knackerβs yard. What did you gain against what you stand to lose?
You have no idea of the anguish Kash-and-Carry and Fiddy Granβ bring to those who have served honorably and cling to the hope of somehow finishing honorably as Federal law enforcement officers

MAGA may try to scrub the dark stains. Others the sacrifice and dignity. So long as a tattered copy of any James Lee Burke Robicheaux and Purcel novel remains to be shared they are doomed.
As the businesses plan the clawback, the ultimate payers hear crickets. Maybe some billionaire, less calloused, hears in the distance the greasy slide of the guillotine and the click of Madameβs needles. Schumer ponders a letter.
We seem to be see-sawing between prix fixe and a la carte as the media universe expands and contracts. A donation to my PBS station of less than any of my streamers opened the app and even better gave me access to binge the new Maigret and others.

@profwriter.bsky.social I have been binging Martin Walker, alternating between audio and Kindle. What a better place to be is St. Denis these days. However, this also popped up and so good things in the offing one hopes. Bernie Gunther is a favorite
Brava. Bloodlust runs strongest in those who have not done violence or had it done upon them and too many urge it for others and not themselves. The AR-15 crowd pays no attention to modern warfare. Old Donald dies a little every day. Hold true and organize the vote and let him finish his final task
Itβs been a rough stretch for hack reporters in NYC. First the NY Postβs βThe gun that did not fire maybe fired itselfβ coverage of the Pretti killing; now this gem of right wing nonsense. Pity the lives derailed of those who were denied Gifted and Talented at age 5.
On the upside, it would keep a bunch of the Constitutional carry, βarmed to resist tyrannical governmentβ crew home under their beds for the duration
Grim to imagine the people who voted for him
Thereβs a bucketful of cognitive dissonance for them
Some 2A folks know their stuff, but the permitted/open carry goofs I know have more fantasies than Disney Studios. They think itβs not going to be them, when in a real police state itβs them first.
Alex Pretti should be with us still, gun or no gun. 2A bullshit like this leads to folks carrying guns to places where the right to do so is a bad decision. If youβre not prepared to gunfight, with odds youβll lose, leave the gun home.
This is a gut check on supporting a free press.
Maggots? Violence? You want to the instrument of extermination? Itβs all over the top on the electronic bullshit exchange. They, Dave? All of βThem?β Too many βThemβ in my life, brother. Bad enough to have to deal with βUsβ. The us that chose this shame, the us that couldnβt stop it. Find the win.
I know some of those troops, Dave. Itβs why the ranks have to be swollen with $50k bounty speed trained garbage. But play the defund and abolish song until the bridge collapses on you.
Ah, gunning down law abiding gun owners. Who didnβt see that coming?
ICE can be right sized, purged of bounty men, directed at its necessary mission, and brought to heel. The challenge will be the Executive Branch. Surprised youβre laying the sins of generals on troops, although some troops must also answer.

Some cold comforts,
The Minnesota Statute of Limitations on Homicide is never. The statute of limitations on the Trump administration is 3 years.
In a civil suit, βFucking Bitchβ sounds like punishment rather than necessary action to prevent death or injury.

Any Federal agents can X,Y,Z. Yeah, but. Primary experience and expertise in benefit fraud resides with the IG of the agency responsible for administering the benefits. They should lead any effort. More blustershit from the cosplay cops.
HSI began as ICE. When Customs rather than INS dominated the leadership, they did a name change in part to bury the migra connection.
ICE was fine under Bush, Obama, Trump 1, and Biden. Now badly missioned, led, and bloated with bounty goons, it is a disgrace. As the world sees clearly, and too many want to lay elsewhere, the problem is 71,000,000 U.S. voters and nothing changes for all our rage until they are. The plan for that?

Better maybe than the tropes Iβve known IRL per the below. I think Iβm generous although my wife would disagree. Classic puzzle, Iβm in. True to life do the research or get a competent editor. Here, Iβm just things Iβve enjoyed and hope others will.
