Yesterday (I am going to be silly here) Huff Post responded to the Pentagon’s new press rules by saying that they had left their response with Helen Waite. So, if Hegseth wants their response, he’ll have to go to Helen Waite. (Told you it would be silly. Sometimes silly is necessary)
I expect everyone here who plans to participate in No Kings this Saturday has signs. But just in case, here’s an article followed by a lot of possible suggestions. I probably should add that Liza Donnelly will authorize you to put one of her cartoons on your sign, provided you follow her simple and reasonable rules – don’t change anything, include her signature, and use for protest sign only.
“In It To Win It” at Democratic Underground found this at Raw Story probably got it elsewhere (they usually do). It would be good news if anyone on the Court would pay attention to it (anyone other than the three who already know it, of course I mean.)
This Wonkette article is not a piece of analysis, but a collection of short factual anecdotes. Read as much or as little as you wish, but the one I am posting it for is the last one, “You Say You’re a Citizen?” I am constantly – multiple times daily – being reminded of the anecdote I’ve quoted here more than once told by Igor Stravinsky of his time in Germany, where he witnessed an atrocity, and when he tried to report it, was told by a magistrate judge, “In Germany today, such things happen every minute.” Well, dammit, in America today such things happen every minute. If we blow them off for that reason, because it isn’t us they are happening to, then we are the Nazis, and not just in the eyes of the world, but for real.
This is a guest video from More Perfect Union. It’s probably of most interest to people who have kids and grandkids. Although I don’t, and still found it very informative.
