A purpose of the war on Iran might well be to provoke a terrorist attack inside the United States, thereby justifying the need to “federalize” elections. We must anticipate it, with sadness and resolution, and not be surprised, if it happens.

How incredible
This sounds fascinating, I look forward to hearing more about Stephanie's work and eventually perhaps
how I might apply it to trying to fill in gaps in my research into my grandmother's history.

Good luck to anyone starting the year with a new health regime. Here’s how mine always goes.
This brings back memories of The Young Tradition from the 1970s, thanks for posting!
@philbrickellmp.bsky.social Can Labour not find somebody who can predict (unintended?) consequences of policy statements and posts? So many mis-steps lately. Or if the consequences are intended, then it's even more worrying.
Have you seen this ... ? 😎

How long are we going to pretend involvement with BCG doesn’t reflect ill on the profession?
Students and staff involved with the scheme need to find their voices on this.
An unusual favour. I have a chance of potentially making money from TikTok to help pay costs incurred when doing @projectinfant.ie.
If you want to help, share this post, then watch the video & interact with it & follow along with me. Every little helps! vm.tiktok.com/ZNdSaqCLS/
The registered social worker search facility is really poor. Just saying!

Enter Peter Thiel, the billionaire founder of Palantir and close ally of Musk. Thiel and his company are now central to Trump’s newest plan: building a massive government-run database on every American.

I try to visualise the work that my volunteers & I do at @projectinfant.ie, but sometimes I need it in front of me.
These are the 2,452 names [mothers & children] we've found, continuing to work to the total: 3,658.
It really hammers it home seeing it all there in black & white.

No one experiencing the tragedy of a miscarriage should be arrested, much less abandoned in jail for 5 months with a $100k bond. But that’s exactly what happened to Mallori Patrice Strait in Texas. Women, particularly women of color, in this country are no longer allowed dignity even in extreme loss

If their councils are in a similar state to some local to me, they might struggle with banning working at home when they find out how many council buildings have been sold off to raise funds.
I heard earlier that a local school is mandating trousers for female students from September because of the number of upskirting incidents...by boys..
The last time social work student bursaries increased was 2014. That’s the year of the ice-bucket challenge, Scottish independence vote, Interstellar, King Joffrey’s death, Brazil World Cup, Pharrell's "Happy"... That is history, and this is a scandal.

@socwkhistory.bsky.social I wonder if anyone can suggest sources of information about the role of "social workers" in hospitals prior to implementation of the 1926 Adoption legislation? I am helping someone to identify her adopted father's birth family. He was born in hospital in March 1926.
