Tornado warning siren blaring in U City 😨 #stlwx
And there goes the siren again... #stlwx
I'm fine (knock on wood). Scarier tornado alert night than usual. Steve Templeton on KMOV did a great job
Tornado warnings still going, can’t remember a night quite like this…

This guy, who in addition to being a thief is accused of being a serial sexual predator, stole $70 million worth of antiquities with the help of organized crime. His only punishment, from Cy Vance, is a “lifetime ban” on acquiring new antiquities. He is 81 years old.
Fits the mold of the others Cy Vance protected…

Russian oligarch partner Len Blavatnik, who gave the biggest donation to the DCCC in its history in 2019, has ramped up his donations to the Dems again -- particularly Pelosi. We discuss on this week's @gaslitnation
"Blavatnik is a business associate of sanctioned oligarchs Deripaska and Vekselberg. He is also a very close friend of Netanyahu. Blavatnik is part of the circle of oligarchs and corrupt international officials deeply tied to Trump and his crime cult." patreon.com/posts/time-to-…
"Blavatnik was born in the Soviet Union but has US citizenship, which makes it legal for him to give enormous campaign donations to US officials when sanctioned foreign oligarchs cannot." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/time-to-…

In this week's @gaslitnation, we discuss threats toward House reps like AOC by violent GOP extremists like Paul Gosar and how the refusal of House leadership to swiftly and strongly take action has streamlined political violence patreon.com/posts/time-to-…
"GOP reps who applauded the 1/6 attacks and interacted with the attackers faced minimal consequences. Instead, Pelosi let them stay in office and continue attacks on congresswomen like AOC and Ilhan Omar, whom they stalk in the halls and threaten online." patreon.com/posts/time-to-…
"The threats that AOC and other female representatives of color get were always serious. The threats date back years and have increased in severity along with govt inaction. We are dealing with the prospect of assassination and we have a political climate which facilitates it."

"Biden's new anti-corruption plan looks a lot like Mueller's 2011 'Iron Triangles' speech, which described how organized crime had infiltrated corporations, law firms, and governments. (Mueller then, of course, did nothing about that.)" -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/time-to-…
"Mueller described how the mafia of the 21st century is financial sophistication. It's real estate. It's accounting. The big difference in the Biden anti-corruption plan is that they won't discuss the existence of organized crime at all." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/time-to-…
"Trump Tower was a dorm for the Russian mafia. Trump is a paragon of laundering money through real estate. He was under investigation by the Treasury until he became president. This is one of the reasons career criminals run for office." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/time-to-…

"South Africa is being punished for their honesty and expertise. That's been the theme of the last five years, whether you're an epidemiologist, a climate scientist, a scholar of authoritarian states. People punish you for being right." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/tyranny-…
"Many people are locked in a cult mentality, a deferential mode of supplication, where they only want to hear fairy tales and false reassurances based on nothing. When experts come forward with evidence of a crisis that can be mitigated, they are attacked for speaking out."
"We're going to go through hard times, but things don't have to be as hard as they have been. That's true for the pandemic, climate change, corruption. The future depends on what people choose to do, particularly those who hold power." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/tyranny-…

"It wouldn't be 2021 without a new plague variant, and of course we get a variant that sounds like the title of a William Gibson novel or a B-side by the Blue Oyster Cult." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/tyranny-…
"Omicron emerged largely due to the refusal of Big Pharma to make the covid vaccine free and accessible outside wealthy and Western states. Variants are much more likely to form when there is a low rate of vaccination." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/tyranny-…
"Unlike when Jonas Salk developed the polio vaccine and gave it away, the monstrous men running Big Pharma today do not want to make the vaccine free. They make huge profits when a variant emerges. When omicron emerged, Pfizer’s shares hit a record high." patreon.com/posts/tyranny-…
