The writers of Boingboing would have you believe that is a crime, a moral indecency that school board members are retiring rather than face the angry mobs upset at the new moral standards our schools seem to ba adopting, standards that fundamentally clash with American Bill of Rights standards, such as the notion that humans are presumed of equal standing in the discourse of daily value exchange and only lose that standing when their direct action leads you to conclude they are not conducting themselves according to the parameters of these standards themselves.
The shothand version of what I just declared is this, we are all to be judged by the content of our character, not the (insert physiological trait here). This new moral supremacism many schools across America are adopting holds to the underlying assumption that life should be deefined within the historical power advantages and disadvantages of certain biological-based groups, and that the scarce traits of physicality within this mass should be elevated and praised over the more prevailing traits.
The simple version is this; White Heterosexual Cis-Gendered Males and their Female enablers invented all kinds of beliefs and sciences and custums and social mores to assure their continued dominance over all others in the world. They invented evil itself, and if only we rid the world of the very concepts of such things as white and heterosexual and gender and male can we hope to create a world where decent people, real people can openly and freely live.
Having this belief is fine, but forcing it on children is another matter altogether, and paretns across the board understand sometimes explicitely and sometimes implicitely the crime currently occuring under our own Federal, State, County, and Local governments across these lands, the crime of emotional terrorism against all of our children stuck in the schools that choose to perform these crimes against our own children, using our tax dollars to pay for the act.
Parents understand if you teach children to hate their own skin, either because they were the all-powerful evil oppressor skin variety or because they were of the all-weak, desperately-in-need of sin-skin allies (the sin-skinners willing to lay down their great power advantage to let their weak-skinned allies struggle for relief from the sin-skinned scourge)., you will pyschologicaly cripple them. You will destroy their sense of agency and safety. You will create enemies in homes, dividing families, further destroying the health and well-being of the very children you allege to be serving.
This isn’t an anti-anti-racist movement, it’s an anti-child-abuse movement. There are very few people that seek to sugar coat in our schools’ history books the sins of this land, but our choice is NOT between ignoring our racist and bigoted past and giving our government schools permission to teach a one-sided demonizing history that destroys the very mental and physcial health of our kids. We can teach the truth of our sins, and the hopes of our promises, for our history is filled with BOTH, not one.
If school board members are resigning from fear, I say good, it’s always much better when the state fears the people than when the people fear the state, something I am sure the writers of boingboing are for.
School boards meetings are being turned into chaotic shouting matches dominated by angry, threatening right-wing mobs. So the members are quitting, reports the AP.
In Vail, Arizona, speakers at a recent meeting took turns blasting school board members over masks, vaccines and discussions of race in schools — even though the board had no plans to act on, or even discuss, any of those topics. “It’s my constitutional right to be as mean as I want to you guys,” one woman said.
MAGAs, Qanons and antivaxxers make it impossible to get anything done and make everyone afraid. So the school board members quit. Then conservatives can take over the school boards. QED.
It’s a scene that has played out at other school boards and…
WASHINGTON — The special counsel who investigated Russia’s 2016 election interference, Robert S. Mueller III, scrutinized “a member of the news media suspected of participating in the conspiracy” to hack Democrats and make their emails public, the Justice Department disclosed on Wednesday.
The deputy attorney general at the time, Rod J. Rosenstein, who was overseeing the Russia investigation, approved a subpoena in 2018 for the unnamed person’s phone and email records. He also approved seeking a voluntary interview with that person and then issuing a subpoena to force the person to testify before a grand jury, the department said.
“All of this information was necessary to further the investigation of whether the member of the news media was involved in the conspiracy to unlawfully obtain and utilize the information from the hacked political party or other victims,” the department said.
No member of the news media was charged with conspiring in the hack-and-dump…
It appears that the computer repairman that turned over the Hunter Biden laptop will be paying Twitter’s legal fees after losing in Federal court badly. John Paul Mac Isaac claimed Twitter’s throttling of information alleged to have come from that laptop pretty much made him appear to be a hacker, which would do serious damage to his business.
The Court disagreed. It dismissed the case with prejudice and ordered the repairman to pay Twitter’s legal fees. Not being a lawyer myself, it is diffiuclt to determine the soundnes of this ruling, but, on the surface, it seemed a bit of a reach to attempt to sue Twitter for this, not that I’m losing sleep about Twitter facing lawsuits.
Still, it is a big win for Twitter, for better or for ill, and a bad loss for our computer repairman, for better or worse.
A federal court in Florida has dismissed a defamation lawsuit filed against Twitter by the Delaware computer repairman who briefly captured national attention during the Hunter Biden laptop story. The lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice, meaning it cannot be filed again, and the plaintiff was ordered to pay Twitter’s attorneys’ fees.
John Paul Mac Isaac sued the technology giant (and a wholly-owned subsidiary) in February. He argued that Twitter’s decision to lock The New York Post‘s account while Post staffers “attempted to post and disseminate its exposé [about the lurid contents of the laptop] on the social media platform” was akin to calling him a hacker because Twitter cited its rationale for the time-limited ban as a violation of Twitter’s rules against “distribution of hacked material.”
“Further actions taken by Defendant Twitter in response to the NY Posts’s story included limiting the distribution of the story by others on its social media platform pursuant to the same policy thereby spreading the belief among its users, including Florida resident users, that the Plaintiffs is a hacker,” the lawsuit, filed with the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, alleged.
WBUR’s investigations team is uncovering stories of abuse, fraud and wrongdoing across Boston, Massachusetts and New England……
Lawmakers and criminal justice advocates in Massachusetts are calling for changes to the laws that govern how law enforcement seizes, and keeps, cash and property confiscated in suspected drug crimes. The push follows a WBUR and ProPublica investigation that found a top prosecutor stockpiling people’s money for years, even when they weren’t charged with a drug offense or their cases were dismissed.
The system, known as civil asset forfeiture, was designed to disrupt criminal drug operations, but in Massachusetts, it’s easier for prosecutors to hold onto cash indefinitely once it’s seized. That’s because, under state laws, district attorneys need only meet the lowest legal burden of proof, probable cause, to support suspicions that the money was involved in a drug crime; DAs also face no deadline to notify a person that they intend to keep the cash.
A college student who bragged about her participation in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol on social media and swiped a “Members Only” sign as she walked through the building pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor as part of a plea deal on Monday.
Gracyn Courtright, a woman from West Virginia who was a senior at the University of Kentucky in January, pleaded guilty on Monday to one count: unlawfully and knowingly entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds. As part of the plea agreement, the prosecution and defense agreed that Courtright’s sentencing guidelines would be between zero and six months in prison. As part of the deal, the government will request that the four other counts Courtright faced will be dropped after her sentencing.
Courtright, who pleaded guilty in a court hearing conducted via videoconference, sounded emotional as she spoke to the judge on Monday morning and told the judge she was “shaking.”
In a strongly worded letter to Worcester County District Attorney Joseph Early Jr., the president of Worcester’s Patrolmen’s Union said they’ll never endorse him again after charges were dropped against protesters.
More than a dozen people were arrested hours after a George Floyd protest last June.
The District Attorney’s Office announced, after reviewing the cases, there was insufficient evidence to move forward with the prosecution.
Worcester Patrolmen Union President Daniel Gilbert said he is ashamed and disappointed the district attorney turned his back on police officers.
Hurricane Ida caused widespread power outages across Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.
Two people have been killed and 10 injured in a road collapse on a Mississippi highway, likely triggered by heavy rains unleashed by Hurricane Ida, officials said.
Three people among those injured were in critical condition, the Mississippi Highway Patrol said on Tuesday.
“We’ve had a lot of rain with Ida, torrential,” Mississippi Highway Patrol officer Calvin Robertson said. “Part of the highway just washed out.”
Seven vehicles plunged into a deep ditch that resulted from the highway collapse, local media reported.
Ida, one of the most powerful hurricanes ever to hit the US Gulf Coast, had weakened to a…
Imran Ali Rasheed, 32, “may have been inspired by a foreign terrorist organization to commit these crimes,” an FBI official said during a joint press conference with the Garland and Plano police departments.
Police investigators and the FBI are working to determine if Sunday’s attack should be classified as an “act of terrorism.”
Dallas FBI Special Agent in Charge Matthew De Sarno made clear that “inspired by” an organization does not mean Rasheed was directed by an outside group.
The US has completed the withdrawal of its troops from Afghanistan marking the end of a two-decade-long conflict that began after the terror attacks of 9/11.
The completion also marks the conclusion of a massive but chaotic evacuation of US and allied staff, vulnerable Afghans and other personnel from the war-torn country.
US President Joe Biden thanked commanders and other personnel for completing the retrograde within the scheduled deadline.
Seven U.S. Capitol Officers have brought suit against pretty much anyone and everyone that they imagine are associated with Donald Trump, including Donald Trump. The suit alleges that Donald Trump was working with white supremacists to overthrow the government and stop the election certification. This is the heart and soul of the suit and, while that information is in most of the articles you will see covering this suit, it’s not, on the main, the lead-in these outelts are using right now.
“worked with white supremacists, violent extremist groups, and campaign supporters to violate the Ku Klux Klan Act, and commit acts of domestic terrorism in an unlawful effort to stay in power.”
A few weeks after the election, the lawsuit says, a key organizer of the Stop the Steal movement that promoted false claims of election fraud, Ali Alexander, appeared at rally outside the State Capitol in Georgia with the leader of the Proud Boys, Enrique Tarrio. “We’re going to stop the steal,” the suit quotes Mr. Alexander as saying. “But first we’re going to stop the certification.”
U.S. Capitol Police Officers who were working during the storming of Capitol Hill on January 6 sued former President Donald Trump, his allies and members of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers on Thursday. The officers allege the defendants intentionally sent a mob of violent demonstrators to disrupt the certification of Joe Biden as then-president-elect.
The Associated Press reported that the suit claims Trump “worked with white supremacists, violent extremist groups, and campaign supporters to violate the Ku Klux Klan Act, and commit acts of domestic terrorism in an unlawful effort to stay in power.”

The Associated Press reported that the suit claims Trump “worked with white supremacists, violent extremist groups, and campaign supporters to violate the Ku Klux Klan Act, and commit acts of domestic terrorism in an unlawful effort to stay in power.”
The suit was filed in federal court in Washington on behalf of seven officers by the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law and names Trump, the Trump campaign, Roger Stone and members of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers.
The lawsuit includes detailed descriptions of the events on January 6, as well as the injuries the officers sustained while working at the Capitol….
A group of Capitol Police officers have sued former President Donald Trump and some of his associates in a sweeping civil suit that alleges he worked together with far-right activists and extremists to promote the election lies that underpinned the Jan. 6 insurrection. Associates like Roger Stone Jr. and groups like the Proud Boys are among the defendants. “This is probably the most comprehensive account of Jan. 6 in terms of civil cases,” said Edward Casper, the lawyer leading the suit, which alleges that Trump and the other defendants violated the Ku Klux Klan Act by interfering with Congress’ constitutional duties.
A few weeks after the election, the lawsuit says, a key organizer of the Stop the Steal movement that promoted false claims of election fraud, Ali Alexander, appeared at rally outside the State Capitol in Georgia with the leader of the Proud Boys, Enrique Tarrio. “We’re going to stop the steal,” the suit quotes Mr. Alexander as saying. “But first we’re going to stop the certification.”
Mr. Alexander’s lawyer, Baron Coleman, has repeatedly said his client is not under investigation in connection with the riot. Mr. Tarrio was not in Washington on Jan. 6 but was sentenced this week to five months in prison for possessing illegal weapons and burning a Black Lives Matter flag stolen from a historic Black church in Washington after a separate pro-Trump rally in December that also descended into violence.
WASHINGTON—The police officer who shot and killed Ashli Babbitt during the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol said he opened fire as a “last resort” as a crowd of rioters smashed through a door of the Speaker’s Lobby and approached the lawmakers he said he was trying to protect.
“I tried to wait as long as I could,” Lt. Michael Byrd told “NBC Nightly News” anchor Lester Holt, revealing his face and identity on national television despite what he said has been a flood of death threats since the shooting.
“I hoped and prayed no one tried to enter through those doors. But their failure to comply required me to take the appropriate action to save the lives of members of Congress and myself and my fellow officers,” NBC quoted Lt. Byrd as telling Mr. Holt.
Those and other comments from Lt. Byrd weren’t included in the brief televised segment of the interview that aired Thursday night but were posted on the network’s website.
