I’d like to remind you: The video that’s being shown of the #Minneapolis #shooting on major media isn’t even the same video

This better angle is the original that I stored right when it was released, before it was scrubbed off the major social media platforms

The #ICE officer who did the shooting is clearly standing up on his two feet. He’s not being hit by the car, not tumbling like in the fake bodycam video released by US authorities

Consider that, if you've been blocked by someone for "just asking a simple question", it wasn't just a simple question.

Your question doesn't exist in a vacuum.

The "just a simple question" was so unpleasant that the person would rather block you than communicate.

Maybe think about that for a bit, and have some self-reflection on your own behaviour.

(ESPECIALLY if your response to being blocked is then to carry on in the comments of their post about how they blocked you)

The #Trump #DOJ has placed 2 federal prosecutors in Washington on leave a day after they filed a document in court that referred to the #Jan6, 2021, attack on the #US Capitol as a “riot” carried out by a “mob,” 2 people familiar with the matter said.

Imagine if they’d called it what it actually was, an #insurrection carried out by #insurgents.

In court filings, they said Taranto had entered the building with the crowd of #Trump supporters & later tussled with MPD officers who were trying to repel the crowds. Once forced outside, court documents allege, Taranto also fought with other #insurrection participants on the Capitol steps, using his cane to fend them off.

Since then, the #DOJ has dismissed or reassigned several of the prosecutors who led cases against those accused in the #insurrection, particularly in the #USattorney’s office for #DC, where Valdivia & White work.
Prosecutors charged Taranto, a 39-yo married father of 2, in 2023 with misdemeanors stemming from his role in the #Jan6 attack.

Assistant #US #attorneys Carlos Valdivia & Samuel White were told they were being suspended just hours after they filed a sentencing recommendation in a case against Taylor Taranto, a Washington state man accused of participating in the #Jan6 #insurrection who is now facing sentencing for unrelated #weapons charges, acc/to people familiar with the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of #retribution.

Hoe bizar dat alle Nederlandse politici - van links tot rechts - die de afgelopen jaren (in verschillende mate) actief een #genocide hebben gesteund nu weer gewoon opnieuw verkiesbaar zijn.

Dat ze hun baan behouden alsof er niets is gebeurd...

Als dit je niet diskwalificeert als volksvertegenwoordiger, wat dan wel?

#Gaslighting has a pretty bad reputation, but besides being an evil manipulation technique, gas lanterns brought light to cities and towns two centuries ago.

Nowadays, their warm light has almost disappeared. The street of my childhood had (actually, still has) it. Until very recently, they were a common sight in my hometown #Berlin, but since 2006 they are successively replaced by brighter, but far cheaper LEDs.

Of the once 44,000, today remain about 17,500, which is about half of

“The EU’s most senior diplomat, Kaja Kallas, said the bloc would keep ‘options on the table’ to pressure Israel’s government if there was no improvement in the ‘catastrophic’ humanitarian situation in Gaza. According to several diplomatic sources she did not endorse any one of 10 sanctions options drawn up by her team, after an earlier EU review found ‘indications’ Israel was in breach of human rights commitments.”

Dear @EUCommission,

Your complicity in the Israeli genocide of the Palestinian people is not going unnoticed.

Shame on you.

Dit gaat over #Wilders maar het had net zo goed over #yesilgoz kunnen gaan. #gaslighting #omgekeerdslachtofferschap. Het zou helpen als media er ook wat scherper op zijn. Trek een grens.

'Zoals in een destructieve relatie komt er altijd een moment waarop je zegt: Tot hier. Niet verder. En als samenleving zijn we aan dat moment toe. Een gezonde samenleving is als een gezonde relatie, gebaseerd op vertrouwen, wederzijds respect en het vermogen om kritiek te verdragen.'
