@Nonilex As racist as these clown fucks are, they are even more sexist.

@Nonilex Trump: I have to take it - whoever is in charge in the USA hasn't been able to deliver on my plane.

@Nonilex Regarding the jet as a gift: to me this looks like a Trump taking a hand-me-down jet. The air force will put some patches on the knees and ass and Trump will show it off like it’s special. It makes him look weak. He doesn’t see that. But the world does. So, reporters, ask it this way: “How does it benefit the USA to have the President accept a hand-me-down from a small middle eastern country. Doesn’t that makes us look weak and needy?

@bobcromwell @dadakopf Yep. My mistake. Probably a demon guide responsible for the error

@futurebird Closed due to violations of environmental law rather than violations of human rights. It’s shameful that they can open another one following environmental rules and a whole new fight will have to happen.

@futurebird I watched his press conference today and he was cognitively compromised without a doubt. His baseline of rambling is so rambletastic that it is hard to see, but he was losing the thread within individual clauses of sentences and clearly doesn’t know what his administration is doing. Why the press core allows his non- answers to stand unchallenged is beyond me. My suggested headline would be “Trump’s rambling at press conference keeps questions of declining heath alive”

@futurebird It is being used to justify war without officially declaring war. In the current plan, Venezuela is Ukraine and Trump is Putin.

@futurebird Interesting. Was just reading à chapter about the connection between humans and eusocial insects like ants at the behavioral level (Bickerton - More Than Nature Needs). They are the rare species with displaced communication.

@Nonilex The 8hr video would be quite a slog, but I read the whole transcript yesterday. Really should be something local and nation print journalism does à deep dive on in the next couple of weeks.

@Nonilex I saw a driver moving their car to get out of ICE agents' way (backing up to turn and leave)...no ICE agent in danger at any point.

@Nonilex Qualified immunity is a blight on our society as currently applied. The bar for justified used of force should be higher for police officers than for a civilian in a similar situation. An officer should need to prove not only that there was a reasonable fear of harm, but also that they followed all expected protocols to minimize that threat (e.g., didn’t place themself in front of a vehicle, used appropriate deescalation techniques, used the minimal amount of force necessary). I would even argue that the assumption of innocence for a police officer should be set aside - the assumption should be that an officer who killed somebody in the line of duty didn’t follow proper procedures since proper procedures would prevent that outcome. The burden of proof should be on the officer to prove there was sufficient cause for the action they took. If the community gives an individual the sanction to use force to enforce laws, that sanction should come with responsibility to use it with care. That requires the individual be held to a strict standard of conduct. Otherwise you invite abuse of that sanction.

@Nonilex In a proper system, you would investigate every use of force. Every single one.

@futurebird This is an evidence-based opinion too. Not even a close call on which provides more benefits.
