In September the FBI identified the election period up to the 2021 inauguration as a “potential flashpoint”, ...warning of an imminent “violent extremist threat” from far-right militias, including white supremacists such as the Boogaloo Boys." theconversation.com/mass-shootings…
School shootings showed a dramatic drop-off, fears of gun violence at rallies and protests did not result in mass shootings but violent crime...has been dropping since the 90s'... despite popular perception that is up. pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2020…
The media on both the left and right has created silos that project the idea of mass protest, violence and chaos. Which is then fed back to the public by politicians and pundits. It depends where you point the camera or do your research. bbc.com/news/world-us-…
The violent singular event in Nashville is about to get spun way past asymmetrical but the truth is America is built on black swan events. I used to have black swans...then a lynx ate them. Oh well. We'll survive. businessinsider.com/here-it-is-soc…

As an expert in extreme #violence and #fuckery I encourage Americans to flow like water on Jan 6. Get your #StopTheSteal signs and pay Proud Boys fiddy bucks to nail their dicks to telephone poles to show their support for Trump. We wish them all the best. wildprotest.com
#StopTheSteal is the final curtain of the TravelingTrumpShow. Encourage them to fight amongst each other to show who will die gloriously for Trump when he becomes #FloridaMan. You can chant #LockThemUp but only after a fair trial. Perhaps give everyone trophies for showing up?
For people who don't know what "be the water" means.
America's involvement in Iraq will be remembered for three things: the fake WMD fraud in 2001, the Nisour Square/Blackwater Massacre in 2007 and the leaked Reuters journo death in a video leaked by Chelsea Manning and Julian Assange in 2010. responsiblestatecraft.org/2020/12/28/i-w…
It is embarrassing that the least successful part of our Iraq adventure has bled into the Trump era with Bolton, Assange, Flynn, Prince and others using Trump's ignorance and greed to rewrite history. nymag.com/intelligencer/…
Despite the lazy trope of "Iraq was better off under Saddam" Iraqis, specifically shias and Kurds, are far better off but America collectively doesn't care about Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Somalia etc anymore. They benefited, but we have our own problems. theguardian.com/world/2019/oct…
This is who MBS considers to be a terrorist and who we provide support to under counter terrorism: "From the charge sheet and entire evidence relating simply to her peaceful activism, to the deplorable use of the terrorism court and Counter-Terrorism Law" aljazeera.com/news/2020/12/2…
If you didn't know Loujain al-Hathloul's background and what she was fighting for you would think this is a Monty Python script. But MBS and the sword dancing crew don't like uppity women while at the same time insist they are letting uppity women drive. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loujain_a…

I had no idea you could burn four hours of your life listening to someone telling you to think like a billionaire, live in government housing as a civil servant and pay taxes like a broke ass.

Back in 2015, when the towheaded one was trying to be an arms dealer in the Balkans, I would imagine for Kiir or Haftar. He hooked up with the wrong guy. I didn't realize George Darmonovic had been ventilated after that. Always pay the commission. news24.com/news24/SouthAf…
"Double agent George “The Butcher” Darmanovic had, in 2015, allegedly illegally imported a grabber from Libya" news24.com/citypress/voic…
Easily one of the more fascinating stories about the fall of Gaddafi. I had heard rumors of South Africans paid to extract Qaddafi's wife etc and then a final run at the end. "George Darmanovic..claims he loaded billions from a Libyan plane in 2010." 2doc.nl/documentaires/…
