One reporter asked the #USMarshals later to comment on whether an #arrest was made of #StefanieLambert, & they declined to answer the question. The hearing room's doors, at that point, were locked.

Later Mon evening, Mike Dito, a public information officer for the U.S. Marshals Service, confirmed Lambert had been #arrested.

Be wary of new mastodon accounts purporting to be American progressives who won't vote for Biden due to his "enabling of the Palestinian genocide." Especially when they misunderstand simple American colloquialisms.

Trump pledged revenge and retribution should he regain office. He says he will be a dictator on “day one.” He calls opponents “vermin” who he will “root out.” He says the blood of our country is being poisoned.

We are far past left vs right.

Our choice is democracy our fascism.

Yes, I know I boosted this. And I'm boosting it again. It's a great rant and a good lesson in how we need to behave nowadays. We have the tools; we just have to use them.

So there are times when I swell with pride at my son. Like me, my son is lazy and pigheaded so he doesn't do well in school despite being among the brightest in his class. Like me, too, he has an overweening sense of fair play and a vindictive streak when that sense is violated.

Sunday was a case in point.

He was in a bit of a schedule bind where reliance on public transit could have made him late for something that was important to him. So he took an app-driven taxi.

The Republicans in Congress are literally killing people every day in Ukraine. (We'll ignore the Covid debacle.)

How will they square this with their Christian god when the time comes (according to their narrative)? Seems like a whole lot of explaining and backpedaling will be necessary. But their god won't have much patience for that because they already know the facts. Is anyone thinking this through? Or is it all a pretend farce?

Yo, Republicans, where is your religion now?

Ukraine is running out of ammunition in Donbas. The armed forces are retreating to the second and third lines, — John Kirby, coordinator of strategic communications in the National Security Council of the White House

"Listen, time is running out... The Russians keep trying to push west. They (Ukrainians — ed.) need to get support, and they need it now," Kirby said.

@BobLefridge The other reason is that Starlink's current price structure is not sustainable. It's like Uber, Starlink will wipe out entire sectors of competition, get a partial monopoly, then rack up prices

Now imagine a world where Russia, China, or Iran are world leaders, and America isolates herself. America is a flawed, complicated nation, but at least we're not systematically exterminating an entire ethnicity like China is doing with the Uyghurs. Or Russia's genocide against Ukraine, or Chechen genocide, or their other atrocities. How would these pro-genocide leaders advise Israel? And what would that signal to the developing world about the international order?

“It’s not like we’re breaking records by a little bit now and then,” Brian McNoldy, a hurricane researcher at the University of Miami, said. “It’s like the whole climate just fast-forwarded by fifty or a hundred years. That’s how strange this looks.”

"strange" in this context means "terrifying" --

Caesar used to communicate privately by encrypting his correspondence with what came to be called the #caesarcipher.

This simple and widely known encryption technique is a substitution cipher in which each letter in plaintext is replaced by another letter following a fix position further up or down the alphabet.
This modest form of #encryption required no mathematics, and it could be done by finger-counting.

Trump informed a rally in Ohio yesterday that there will be a "bloodbath" if he's not elected. Robert Reich responds:

"Trump is clearly desperate. He knows that his future freedom and his fortune both depend on winning in November. He has no qualms about turning Americans against Americans to achieve this goal. Apparently he is even willing to fuel violence, a second civil war."

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇺🇦 When Ukrainian miner Vasyl Yavorsky donated his own wages to striking Welsh miners in 1984, he never thought that help would one day be returned.

However, a group of Welsh miners have now loaded up on medicine and supplies and driven from south Wales to Kyiv to repay the old favour.

Ah, you aren’t familiar with Dana Rohrabacher? (Putin’s pet congress-critter, now retired)
He’s the one who passed the legislation to privatize the space industry and give the keys (and the sweet taxpayers $$$) to Elmo, so here we are.

Everyone said get a Brother printer so I bought a 3-in-1 scanner and printer. There seems to be something wrong with it though. I plugged it into a Linux laptop, opened a document, pressed print, selected the printer, and it printed. Then I opened simple-scan, pressed scan, and it scanned.

This isn't how printers and scanners are supposed to work. Where do install the drivers that don't work properly etc? This was no fun. I demand a refund.

Latest United Nations report on Russia's war crimes in #Ukraine reads like the worst horror film imaginable. Women & young girls viscously raped by drunken Russian soldiers & rape/sexual assault used as punishment for any pro-Ukraine sentiment. The inhuman torture of Ukrainian prisoners, both soldiers & civilians is beyond words.

We can not look away, Ukrainians need us to speak up for them against Russian barbaric torture, rapes, killings. Let the world know what russians have done & are doing now as you read this.

And if your response is “the buck stops with Garland because he’s in charge”, then I assume you’ll also give him credit for being the first to indict Donald for the coup. 😃
