Well... I'm sure this won't be misconstrued and used by accelerationists, #disinfo grifters, or fascists to rile up their followers.
Seriously though, this is going to travel very fast in the worst circles and ratchet up the paranoia.

One such organization is the Texas School Safety Center, a non-profit funded by the government.

The Texas Education Agency puts their website under "Student Discipline" resources.

🧵 Image
The "Office of the Attorney General" has been a part of the TxSSC Advisory Board since its inception, and their Twitter feed is full of copaganda. ImageImageImageImage
After the massacre in Uvalde, they were quick to provide interviews to CBS, NBC, the Texas Tribune, and other outlets.

Spoiler: They suggested more training. Image

"We knew it might take 5 or 10 or 20 years, yet gradually an authoritarian state arose within the democratic state, and a nucleus of fanatical devotion and ruthless determination formed in a wretched world that lacked basic convictions."
"Only one danger could have jeopardised this development — if our adversaries had understood its principle, established a clear understanding of our ideas, and not offered any resistance."
"Or, alternatively, if they had from the first day annihilated with the utmost brutality the nucleus of our new movement.

Neither was done. The times were such that our adversaries were no longer capable of accomplishing our annihilation, nor did they have the nerve."

She doesn't need the money, she doesn't need to worry about access, and she's one of the few the general public would believe.

She knows A LOT of sordid details and could expose so much wrong, but she doesn't and that says a lot. ImageImageImageImage
She's not the only one either.

Isn't it interesting that the whole Prince Andrew thing never came up in Oprah's interview with Harry and Meghan?

Her social circle sure features a lot of immoral rich dudes, many who bought their way out of sexual assault charges for years. ImageImageImageImage
That's an interesting thing to say in 1999.

"DHS identified threats but did not share intelligence"

That sounds like a fifth column to me.
This is especially alarming because DHS is taking the lead domestically on threats related to the Ukraine invasion.
Let's not forget that DHS is the department that brought us several blatant white supremacist dogwhistles over the last few years.

People are doing their best to avoid the harsh realization that sanctions on their own aren't going to solve this.

They're great for PR, but not very effective at actually changing behavior when used on their own.

Pretending they're some proven solution ignores reality. 1/
"Sanctions seem to be the main, if not only, Western weapon for dealing with Russian aggression in Ukraine."

Sounds reasonable, we should at least try right?

Well... 3/ Image
... we did.

That quote is from April 28, 2014. Almost 8 years we've been trying this. How's that working so far?

From the same piece: "Their utility in changing objectionable behavior is more questionable." 4/

The state of MSM news makes it easy to lose sight of Russia's larger geopolitical projects.

The escalation in Ukraine is concerning because it looks like it will advance SEVERAL of these goals simultaneously.

Thread of Threads collecting these ambitions into one place.
1/ Russia is working in coordination with China to take control of global food production as scarcity increases in a warming world.
2/ Russia is working in coordination with China to revamp Africa's energy sector, and control the mines used to extract "rare earth metals" used in semiconductors, rechargeable batteries, computer chips, and much more.
