Portland protesters are finding new ways to stand up to federal agents

“We came out here dressed in T-shirts and twirling Hula-Hoops and stuff, and they started gassing us, so we came back with respirators, and they started shooting us, so we came back with vests, and they started aiming for the head, so we started wearing helmets, and now they call us terrorists,” Mac Smiff, a local Black organizer in Portland, said. “Who’s escalating this? It’s not us.”

Nothing is OK, Mr. Trump

jamie
Trump is in over his head

Seriously. 120,000 Americans are dead. That’s how many the experts predicted would be dead in AUGUST if we did NOTHING at all…but today is only June 23rd!!!

25,000 Americans are being diagnosed with COVID-19 EACH DAY. 40+ Million Americans Are Unemployed. The economy is on the verge of breaking. Completely. We’re supposed to believe that the Stock Market going UP means everything is OK?!!

But it’s NOT OK. Not OK at ALL. Nothing is OK.

Mr. Trump, you are NOT doing a good job at ANY of this, and yet you are acting like the pandemic is over, the economy is great, and you don’t care about anything anymore…except your reelection.

You are censoring and silencing government scientists, denying the extreme health crisis exists, while watching as 1000s of Americans DIE…and for some fucking reason you are CELEBRATING your VICTORY?!?! This is NOT a VICTORY, asshole. You are FAILING HARD and people’s lives are being lost due to your ignorance.

What the ever-loving fuck is WRONG with you?!?!?

Easy Peasy. I think it would probably be easier if you’re from the UK. Which I’m NOT. So…yeah. ?

BP CEO Calls Plan to Lay Off 10,000 Workers the ‘Right Thing’

jamie

The RIGHT thing would be to strip executives of salary, bonuses and perks, using the money to keep as many jobs for as long as possible as fossil fuels are fizzling in favor of an actual future for humans…but it’s not as if anyone is living under delusions of oil companies, BP in particular, doing ‘the right thing’.

CNN reporters covering Minnesota riots arrested live on-air

jamie

I truly don’t understand what the fuck the MPD was thinking, arresting a CNN reporter, with valid ID, while broadcasting LIVE ON THE AIR. It’s clearly a First Amendment violation to arrest journalists who are fully cooperating while covering the protests. Given the track record of Minneapolis’ Finest with people of color, should we assume some racism here? Yup. That or Trumpian cops who want to punish ‘fake news CNN’?
Both maybe.

Better than fuel cells? This could change everything. Hydrogen is clean, green, waste free and sustainable.
