Relax, it's just going to be short-term reeducation camps for all the crazy liberals who spread misinformation on social media.

Arizona Plans Executions with Gas Used by Nazis at Auschwitz

Wonder if Herr Musk has started his own Zyklon B production facility yet?

That story is four-years old (check the date stamp on the articles header). This was when the Republican Doug Ducey was still Governor.

The last executions in Arizona were in 2022, while Doug Ducey was Governor, three of them, all by lethal injection. These were the first executions since 2014.

Now that Democrat Katie Hobbs is Governor, there may now be a moratorium on executions.

It's no longer in parenthesis

It is for me.

Where are you located? Apparently, it only shows as the 'Gulf of America', WITHOUT the parenthesis, if you're launching Google Maps or Google Earth from within the United States. Everywhere else it appears that they're using the double designation with the 'Gulf of America' in the parenthesis, which in itself is interesting as this just shines a light on Trump's stupid ego.

OCU

BTW, Apple Maps still shows it as the 'Gulf of Mexico', at least for now.

Are you on a Mac or a PC?

Speaking of naming ceremonies, is anyone seeing "Gulf of America" on Google Maps yet?

It's up now!!! Google Maps shows:

Gulf of Mexico
(Gulf of America)

LOL.

It's no longer in parenthesis, it's just plain 'Gulf of America'...

I think this is all part of Trump's plan to get rid of the BLM, only he thinks he's going after Black Lives Matter instead of the Bureau of Land Management.

The question is, who's going to actually decide which obligations are we going to honor and which ones that we're not, Trump, the Treasury Secretary or Elon Musk and his band of 'teenage' zealots?

OCU

Will Trump blame himself when there are wildfires which are not put out in a timely fashion this Summer?

Or does he just assume that the only wildfires which occur are in California?

OCU

And now J.D. Vance has come out and claimed that the Judiciary has no say in whether Trump's Executive Orders are legal or not. Hasn't he ever heard of 'Check & Balances'? Or was he basing this claim on the Supreme Courts opinion that the President is immune from being held responsible for actions he takes while in office? Or perhaps Vance was just setting the stage for when he might be in a position to do even more damage?

OCU

And how much is this 'task forece' going to cost the American taxpayers, and to what end will they go?

OCU

But what recourse will there be if Trump and Musk simply ignores these court orders? The courts cannot enforce their own rulings. They have no police or enforcement officers. They depend on people acknowledging the courts authority and complying with their orders. And if they don't, their only recourse is to turn it over to the DOJ to enforce their orders, but does anyone think that Pam Bondi and the DOJ will do anything that Trump doesn't want done?

OCU

And now Trump is establishing an 'Office of Faith' inside the White House, headed-up by one of his Evangelical 'spiritual advisors' from his campaign. And the new AG, Pam Bondi, has pledged that one of her top priorities will be going after those individuals and organizations who are 'persecuting' Christians in America. I certainly hope that there's some money left over when Musk gets done with his DOGE project that the DOJ will also be able to go after those individuals and organizations who are attacking Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, Atheists, to say nothing of non-evangelical Christians.

Nowhere is there anyplace along the Columbia River where water could've ever flowed into California, therefore, there was nothing to shut-off. The only water from the Columbia River that could possibly reach California would be what goes out into the Pacific Ocean and moves down the coast line, but that's not a very practical way of delivering freshwater from the Columbia River to a place like California. You know, all that salt and stuff.

When Trump was asked why he had pardoned individuals who had been convicted of attacking Capital police officers on January 6th, he seemed to not know that that was the case:

What could possibly go wrong...

OCU

BTW the reason Trumpanzee knows so much about Native treaties is because before his Atlantic City casinos ventures was because he was pissed off at the California casinos... which were only allowed on Rez land at the time... and he wasn't allowed to. It was a big stink in Indian Country

#12 | Posted by RightisTrite at 2025-01-21 09:07 AM

It was also the Indian casinos in Connecticut that Trump was outraged about. But looking back, all of Trump's casinos when belly-up while those unsophisticated 'ingenious types', they all seem to be doing okay.

Speaking of the need for investigations into the abuses by the FBI and the DOJ, Peltier should have been paroled in 1993 when he first became eligible because by then it had been revealed that the FBI had withheld exculpatory evidence from the court during Peltier's trial. This included the FBI stopping a vehicle which bore no resemblance whatsoever to the one that they had been looking for. It was also never determined who actually fired the first shots and that the FBI agents were driving unmarked cars on private property where the members of AIM, which Peltier was a member, had been given sanctuary. The judge refused to allow Peltier's lawyers to make a self-defense argument despite there having been another so-called 'Native American' group in the area, known as the 'Goon Squad', which had been at war with AIM but who had been getting clandestine support from federal authorities, in the form of money and firearms as well as looking the other way when they committed criminal acts, which included ambushing AIM members, that often resulted in deaths or serious injuries.

The 1992 movie, 'Thunderheart', was loosely-based on the incidents that took place in 1975 at the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota, which lead to Peltier being charged with murder and subsequently convicted:
