To begin, I give you a clip of an anti-ICE protest in Littleton, Colorado on 1/31; nice work by these fine folks protesting, and from the horns beeping as people passed by, I’m sure they have a lot of company...great words in particular from the Vietnam vet, the history teacher, the lady protesting for her granddaughter, etc...all in this clip are heroes IMO...and speaking of protest, there is also this...mildly NSFW/H...
...and speaking of BS from our DHS/ICE thugs, Jesse Dollemore informs us that the DHS dismissed a case against men who allegedly beat ICE agents with shovels...oh, and are you surprised that Fix Noise did their typical “rip n’ read” act and decided to publish the original DHS account even though it was COMPLETELY AND THOROUGHLY WRONG???!!! And for the benefit of non-legal eagles out there including yours truly, a “dismissal with prejudice” ruling means that the case cannot be brought again, with such rulings serving as a penalty for misconduct...also NSFW/H...
...and Elliott Morgan of Rebel HQ brings us the tale of a three-time Trump voter admitting he was scammed, and apparently ICE going after little kids and innocent people trying to work and live their lives, along with the recent racist meme of the Obamas, was the last straw for this guy...on the one hand, welcome to the fight, but on the other hand, what took you so damn long to wake up?? Oh, and don’t you just love Laura Ingraham trying to deflate the mess over the ape meme with her softball question to Karoline Leavitt? And by the way, there are no apes in “The Lion King”...and as you might expect, there was never an apology since this criminal gang apologizes for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING...
...and RIP Oscar-winning actor Robert Duvall, who built an enduring collection of legendary performances, beginning with this one (from this timeless film)...
...and there will no doubt be many tributes to the Rev. Jesse Jackson over the coming days, but I thought I would add this also (from Jackson’s “David and Goliath” speech at Tendley Baptist Church in Philly in January 1984...I can still recall tears streaming down Jackson’s face as he attended the rally at Grant Park for President-elect Obama in 2008)...
...and finally, RIP guitarist Greg Brown of Cake, who composed the band’s biggest hit.
