Important context for #HunterBiden deal: it was made by a #Trump appointee who has said he had 100% authority to decide what to do ultimately on the matter.

Katherine Faulders:

The Trump appointed US attorney David Weiss said in a June 7 letter to Chairman Jordan that AG Garland granted him “ultimate authority” over the investigation, “including responsibility for deciding where, when, and whether to file charges.”

Noticing a lot of instance admins lately who are feeling pretty down.

Please remember that the vast majority of admins and moderators in this space do not do this work as a day job, nor as paid work. They have other projects and deadlines and bills and family and actual living plants. Please have the good grace to be patient with them 💜

*By which I mean do not abuse, harass, dox, threaten etc. Jeez.

I need people on the left, every flavor of the left, to understand this. Your passion right now cannot be for voting for whomever is making a stunt third party presidency bid because the passion on the right is to KILL us. Republicans are happily coalescing power with & through white supremacist terrorists who are murdering people regularly and terrorizing people daily, and they are creating policy to enable those killers and terrorists.

From 2007 until 2021, #RogerStone failed to pay $2 million in taxes and used shell companies to hide the money from the IRS.

His case was resolved civilly without any criminal charges.

The unusual aspect of #HunterBiden’s case is that he was charged criminally at all.

This is your periodic reminder that ambulatory wheelchair users exist. Many folks think wheelchairs are only for those who can't walk at all, or folks who can only take a couple steps.

Wheelchairs and electric scooters are used due to pain, weakness, balance issues, orthostatic intolerance, etc.

The tragic peril of the missing tourist Titanic divers is not diminished by the loss of 500 refugees in the Mediterranean.

BUT

The emphasis in the media on the white folk is shameful.

"Last month... [Ken Paxton] became one of only three state officials in #Texas history to be impeached...

The impeachment vote... was initiated by Paxton’s request for $3.3 million to cover a negotiated settlement he announced in February with four former top aides.

Those aides... were illegally fired after reporting their boss to the FBI for... bribery and leveraging the power of his office to help a political donor."

Let me take a moment and give my two cents on Rex's take about this veiled threat given to Dr. Hotez today by this Michigan ammunition company with almost a 100k followers over on that foul site.

Rex, by continuing to contribute content to ELoon's company, you are helping to enable the trolls because they feed off of getting y'all triggered. Grow a pair and stop helping them thrive!

Tolerance of human rights violations against refugees, #asylum seekers and migrants across Europe has reached alarming levels. Ahead of #WorldRefugeeDay, I call on @coe states to stand by their promise to recommit to #HumanRights protection – not in words, but in actions.
