Democracy Docket: Masked and armed federal agents made arrests outside a press conference that Gov. Gavin Newsom was giving to announce plans to redraw California's congressional map to offset the GOP's unprecedented mid-term redistricting plans in Texas. "Right outside, at this exact moment, are dozens and dozens of ICE agents," Newsom said. "You think it's coincidental? Donald Trump and his minions decided, coincidentally or not, that this was a location to advance ICE arrests."
Immigration agents reportedly made arrests outside the event, in an overt attempt to intimidate Democratic officials and citizens who'd gathered for the launch of the redistricting campaign.[image or embed]

Led Zeppelin tune covered by a reggae band with a lead singer who is an Elvis impersonator. (you can't make this stuff up...)
Black Dog - Dread Zeppelin (1990)
www.youtube.com
You likely already know the lyrics.
And, fwiw, the Un-Led-Ed album whence this tune came is quite, ummm, I'll say, different.
But fun to listen to, imo.
Speaking of Reggae versions of tunes, there is this...
Easy Star All-Stars - Us And Them (2003)

Again, no lyrics should be needed.
You understand 90% of the country thinks this line of BS is BS. Right?
As always, you're lying: By a 27-point margin, 59 percent of Americans believe Trump is guilty of these crimes compared to just 32 percent who believe he is innocent.
When the Aeroflot plane was flying over the ADIZ and then landing, you know these Russian dirtbags were looking at whatever they could see and collect about this USAF/NORAD base. The Canadians were probably not happy: newstver.ru

A distinction sans any difference.
Presidents allowed Americans the right to protest back then.
The US never helped out or chummed it up with any dictators before NOW.......

LAMP,
If you like the reggae covers of Pink Floyd, can I recommend the album, Pickin' on Pink Floyd, by David West? youtu.be
If Putin agrees to a ceasefire it's so he can retrench and then he'll be right back at it. He has nothing to lose.
Trump and Putin reiterating Trump's words that this war never would have happened if Trump was in office was so much of a blatant lie it should smack any anyone's conscience. Facts:
Since Trump has been back in office Putin has escalated his attacks on Ukraine to levels we hadn't seen.
Trump in his first term didn't stop the war. He just lies about it - to this day.
