In a nutshell

Yesterday was ugly. I don't have the whereabouts to explain it all because it is early and I don't want to get riled up again. So, someone else did it for me.
That the right-wing in a nutshell. Or perhaps a shell-casing. Fascism is at our feet, and in our government. Instead of taking it seriously, we are talking about inflation and everything else instead of the deep danger that is the GOP.

Hunting Black men and lynching them/shooting and murdering Black Lives Matter protesters = self defense
Threatening to murder a Latino congresswoman = jokes
Breaking into the Capitol, murdering a cop, and attempting to overthrow the government = patriotism

Greetings, comrades.
Sounds like it's time to start stockpiling arms and supplies at Barrett's Farm again.

Good morning, bloggers!!!
I am not sure that we can move past these divisions without a great deal more shouting and suffering.
I have to head to work but there was another incident with balls being thrown in my classroom. (I was hit in the ribs.) I am going to see if I can transfer to another school.

The guy who killed ahmaud Arbery is being caught in a bunch of , shall we say, lies on cross-examination.

Mornin' all.. 
I'm right there with ya Tri. Between dealing with the economic mess that's going on right now and my girlfriend's struggle to just get her medical insurance transferred from CT to RI (she can't get her meds because CT cut her coverage off the moment she applied in RI, RI is dragging their feet and we can't afford to pay cash), I've lost a LOT of faith in government actually giving a damn about the people.

When I heard that guy actually decided to take the stand on his own behalf, I figured he saw Rittenhouse's whine fest and thought 'sheeeeit if I do that maybe I could get a walk too!'

The prosecutor is literally reading yesterdays trial transcripts -- and his reply is 'what I meant to say was X but I am confused'
His lawyer has woefully prepared him.

The prosecutor just got the defendant to admit on the stand that he has never "pulled-up" on a person in his truck to investigate, like he did with Arbery. BIG.

Next she establishes, through the defendant's own testimony, that the did not have any indicator on him that he was in law enforcement-no marked car, no uniform, no announcement of police presence. BIG.
