Well except for B.B. King, and Billie Jean King, and MLK. But we have to keep a close eye on those self proclaimed Kings.

Not getting enough attention is the man, Ah Loo, shot and killed at the No Kings rally in Salt Lake City. He was shot by “Peacekeepers” who remain unidentified and were not taken into custody. It appears they were not law enforcement. It is not clear who hired or authorized them. It is not clear what training they have. They were throughout the protest, with no badges and frequently face masks. They saw a man walking with a rifle and one opened fire into the crowd hitting the rifle carrier and killing Ah Loo.
While carrying a rifle into that situation is crazy, it seems to have been within the legal limits of Utah. That is its own crazy problem. However the ones also carrying, brandishing and actually firing weapons and killing people have not been identified or held.
It is becoming a dangerous society when we don’t even know who the gunmen in our streets are, they hide their face, and no one will say who they report to.
I have no idea what the intention of the rifleman was, but based on video he was not running (until after he was shot) contrary to what police reported and he did not have his gun in a firing position. Certainly nothing that would justify firing into that crowd.
I was about half a block from the shooting and was present at the arrest of the rifleman. I really want some answers around who this Peacekeepers are and who authorized them. Masked people with guns and no badges does not strike me as a successful formula.
Edit: The Ah Loo family has a go fund me page for anyone who wants to help. He leaves behind a wife and children. He seems to have been a wonderful man of faith as well as a fashion designer. https://www.gofundme.com/f/urgent-support-needed-support-the-family-of-afa-ah-loo?attribution_id=sl:94796f87-30cd-485d-b982-583c0c297c0f

MM: “Seven partners at Willkie Farr & Gallagher, one of the law firms that struck a deal with President Trump, are leaving to join the Cooley law firm, which represented Jenner & Block in its successful challenge of the Trump executive order that targeted it.”
This is what I love to see. Let’s keep chipping away at the authoritarians and their fellow travelers.
That deserves a cat picture!

IIRC the “settlements” the cowardly law firms made with Putin’s Cock-holster was for x millions of dollars of legal work to be performed pro bono on Cadet Bone Spurs’ pet projects. It’s going to be exceedingly difficult for these law firms to fulfill their obligations/bribes with no lawyers.
Hmm. I wonder if it will end up in litigation with the knee-bending suck-up firms suing each other for breach of “bribement” promise?

TFG’s latest “truth” packs so many lies into one short post. It’s like opening up one of those vacuum-sealed bags of clothes from your suitcase–the lies keep growing, and growing, and growing. Hard to believe so many lies can fit in that space.

Well they caught 57 yo Vance Boelter last night. In the woods, near his home about 9pm. He was armed so they allowed him to army crawl to surrender to LEO.
They’ve charged him with 2 counts of 2nd degree murder for the Hortmans deaths & 2 counts of attempted 2nd degree murder of the Hoffmann’s who survived.
Bail was set at $5M
In MN you must be indicted by a grand jury for 1st degree murder charges. So for now, he is held on 2nd degree murder charges until grand jury is convened. 1st degree murder in MN carries life without parole sentence.
Feds picked him up this morning from county jail, he has 2 scheduled court appearances one in State@1pm & one in Federal @ 1:30 pm this afternoon.
So, Federal charges may be forthcoming. The Feds also have MN press brief scheduled @11am CST

There’s this well-organized, dystopian, disinformation, delusion mill run by the right wing. If it can’t be brought under control, the consequences for America will be grave. There is no equivalent on the left.

If people in that country are too dangerous to allow into the US, isn’t it too dangerous to deport people from other countries there? And why would their agreement to accept deportees in any way change the danger those people pose to the US by entering?

My niece works for the VA, and I inquired about this and it is true, but more astonishing to me was this anecdote she told me:
I had to remove the vertical ventures rock climbing sticker (which is rainbow) from my Honda fit since I was told my car may be towed for having a ‘gay and political flag’ on it lol.
Unfucking believable how petty these people are.
