For the religious nuts today on Twitter promoting the theory that God is punishing California for their "lifestyle" choices with the #CarrFire , I have two things to say to you:

1: Redding is a Republican stronghold, with 20% more GOP voters than Dems
2: You're a garbage person
Many, many people in response to this tweet have claimed that they never see these kinds of messages. Okey dokey. Here ya'go.

Hey, folks. If you'd like to help spread love and not hate for the survivors of the #CarrFire , the @sacbee_news hase some suggestions.

Tonight, you’ll hear Trump address the nation about his immigration crisis.
Despite his lies, Trump is right about one thing.

We do have a crisis on our border.
A humanitarian crisis involving the mass incarceration of families seeking asylum.
#BoycottTrumpPrimeTime

(THREAD)
(2) First, let’s address Trump’s manufactured crisis.

In 2017, immigrants entering illegally at the southern border hit their lowest level in 46 years.

America’s current immigration rate is net zero since more people leave than currently enter.

(3) In fact, recent government data confirms that most of the illegal immigration that occurs in this country doesn’t come across the Mexican border at all, but from those overstaying their visas.

This #SundayMorning Trump has reiterated his threats to declare a national emergency and bypass Congress to build his border wall.

Can Trump abuse his executive powers in this way and what, if anything, can be done to stop him?

#SundayThoughts #SundayMotivation
(THREAD)
(2) First off, there are not a lot of rules about declaring national emergencies. And sadly, even in America, this executive power is rarely checked by Congress.

It's a tactic that has been used by both authoritarians and democracies around the world.
washingtonpost.com/world/2019/01/…
(3) While Trump can declare a national emergency at his discretion, he can't invoke one indefinitely without Congressional approval. And there are some limits to how this authority can be used to deploy troops & use funding.

I was out for a walk this afternoon in my neighborhood, tromping through half ploughed icy sidewalks when something happened that happens way way too often.

A red pickup truck with a big engine pulled up alongside of me.

(THREAD)
(2) At first I didn’t think much of it, but I did look up and glare at the driver. As a woman walking alone, even in the middle of the day, I am hyper aware of my surroundings.

I feel uncomfortable wearing headphones to listen to music when in public for exactly this reason.
(3) The driver was a young to middle aged white male and his truck was loud. He coasted along beside me for nearly half a block before stopping.

I was annoyed but shrugged it off. Maybe he wasn’t sure where he was going and was trying to get a closer look at the house numbers.

#MAGA, Conservatives, Christians, I am about to give you tons of ammo in the form of pure, Christian truth, to smoke Liberal, Commie, Leftists who tell YOU what it is to be Christian. Let's set them straight, once and for all.
All credit due to the late, great Pastor Sheldon Emry: keep this link handy for online and irl comebacks. And give it to your Judaized clergy when they start talking CRAP about immigration, and loving our enemies, and the enemies of Christ.

In this politically charged environment on social media, its good to step back and discuss something less controversial…

homosexuality and Christianity.

Let’s go…
To begin, I am a male, heterosexual, Christian, Caucasian. Meaning I’m on the high rope with no harness or safety net.
I’m not, in many circles, socially permitted to have an opinion on this topic or many others.
Yet somehow I do and am willing to share it. 😁
I am NOT a biblical scholar, nor a religious authority of any kind, but am rather spiritual.
Mostly, please don’t assume where I’m going with this. Kindly reserve any feed back for the conclusion of this thread.

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

#Twitter: what is it good for? How do you get good at it? And what will we do when it's gone? Today in pulp I share a few insights I've gleaned from almost five years of running this account.

Its about to get all meta...
Most people's tweets are a stream of consciousness, and Twitter itself is a daily flow of 500 million of these across the surface of your phone. You are currently looking at the collective unconscious of the planet...
And like any examination of the unconscious you will see things on Twitter that fascinate you and things that disgust you. This is part of its attraction: the filters of discourse become permeable, allowing the unsayable to leak across.

Consolidating and compressing my recommendations for links to track wild fires: - see replies below
Best map: firemap.sdsc.edu

Why: You can turn on current and historical fire layers.
Time-line for satellite detections lets you see fire movement best.
Best Fire Bomber aircraft tracking: @flightradar24
flightradar24.com/40.58,-122.61/…

Why: speed, elevation profiles and individual aircraft tracking. Real-time evaluation of where the aircraft are focusing.
