Headline today announcing Trump's upcoming trial is set for for March. Trump's charged with trying to subvert democracy and overturn a Democratic election.
Same article points out Trump is also the front-runner in GOP to run as president.
You will tell your kids about this.
Your children's children will read about this in history books.
The insanity of now.

I understand that newspapers need support through subscriptions, but I often worry about about how this makes reliable information a luxury for those with the means to afford it.

Meanwhile misinformation & disinformation are widely accessible & free. #news #journalism

Your reminder

In 2016 Russia financed a series of ads along with an army of upvote bots. The intent was to divide america further from all angles

The senate intelligence committee released the following ads from Russia linked actors

These are from accounts with names like Blacktivists, Back the Badge, Secure Borders, Army of Jesus and so on. Every division covered

We’re heading into 2024. If you see a political ad trying to provoke you: mistrust it.

What if we branded environmentalism as "masculine"?

Republican hopefuls shrug when asked about climate crisis during debate

While most candidates didn’t flat out deny the climate emergency – save Vivek Ramaswamy – they showed no urgency to address it

The Guardian
They asked Republican candidates at the debate if they believed in Climate Change! One candidate started to raise their hand before the group moved on to other issues!
Imagine empowering a Party who deny the overwhelming evidence of Climate Change? It boggles the mind.
Empowering this kind of willful ignorance is like arming children.
It makes no sense.
I wonder if Meadow's texts to Gini Thomas will play any role in his trying to move his trial to federal court?

Lockdowns, Masks, And Social Distancing "Unequivocally" Help Stop The Spread Of #COVID

The Royal Society has issued a report examining the effects of various non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) – not vaccines or medications – in reducing the spread of COVID-19, and their results are conclusive: wearing face masks, social distancing, and lockdowns “unequivocally” lowered the spread of the disease.

"The behavior of these public figures makes clear the depth of their arrogance. They act as if the rule of law does not apply to them, that they are above the law, that their treatment is an indignity, an unjust attack, a scandal." https://america.substack.com/p/the-depth-of-arrogance
