Ike rightly warned us about the "Military Industrial Complex." Today, Michael McKeon rightly calls our attention to the "Presidential Ass-Kissing Industrial Complex." This is otherwise known as #Corruption under a #Dictatorship. #SupportDemocracy: #Impeach #Indict #Remove #Imprison.

Self-exposure via too much security

Georgia Closing Airspace Over Abastumani ‘Ivanishvili Whim’, Sources Tell RFE/RL

civil.ge/archives/730573

On April 16, Georgia is to close airspace over the area of Abastumani, a health resort in the country’s south, with officials citing the need to ensure clear skies above the local astrophysical observatory. However, sources told Radio Free Europe/Radio…

This move by Bidzina Ivanishvili with declaration of no-fly zone gives me some hint: if you want to fully unmask this putin pet faster, you should rally not on famous Rustaveli avenue or even near headquarters of his “Georgian Dream” pet party. The most sensitive place for Ivanishvili now is where he imposed so hardcore security measures, going so far up to declaring no-fly zone. So opposition should rally in Abastumani where his family residence is.

I guess this kind of self-exposure via excess security is common among dictators and billionaires alike.

The illustration picked as reminder that the Death does not care about your security measures. it even does not care whether you have enemies who ready to give you ticket for Kobzon concert. It simply comes in its own time no matter what you do.

“A group of three anti-genocide protesters have been imprisoned without bail until at least 1 May, after appearing at Westminster magistrates’ court on the morning of 14 April. The three, members of People Against Genocide, have been charged over a direct action protest against Keysight Technologies”

Anti-genocide protesters denied bail, first hearing 1 May

This is part of the government's 'lawfare' war on anti-genocide and pro-Palestine journalism, speech and protest

You cannot isolate Trump from the structure that produced him. White supremacy, greed, and misogyny define that structure. Listen: https://gaslitnation.libsyn.com/the-wajahat-ali-interview
