You can call it a hoax. You can call it a staged event. But mostly you can call it the workings of a sick, demented man.

Yet another thread full of folks who have abandoned reason and fact based thinking.

Murder.

Joseph R. Goodwin, United States District Court judge. 2/19/26

Well, they *are* thugs and criminals.

Under the direction of Pete Hegseth, US military behaving like a group of thugs and criminals.

‘We were terrified they were going to kill us’: fishers who survived US boat strike speak out An Ecuadorian fishing crew describe their ordeal as victims of Trump’s purported war on ‘narcoterrorists’

A group of Ecuadorian fishermen survived a US drone strike, were detained at gunpoint, phones wiped, ship blown up, disappeared to El Salvador, then released without charge. “They knew we were fishermen. Even the Salvadorian authorities said things had been handled very badly.”

These fishermen are lucky to be alive. We will probably never know how many of the ~180 people killed in similar US attacks were also just fishermen.

“The US has provided no evidence that any of the vessels were involved in drug trafficking, and legal experts and rights groups say the attacks amount to extrajudicial killings as they apparently target civilians who do not pose any immediate threat.”

We can’t trust Palantir with our NHS data Is this really the company we should be entrusting with our health service’s digital architecture?

"Palantir is not just a problem of profiteering from our national healthcare system— it's a fundamental threat to the democratic control of our public infrastructure + the privacy of every citizen. By giving our taxes to this company, we are aiding their operations everywhere."

“The youngest, who was born less than two weeks before Renae’s death, has glasses just like her older sister and many of her mannerisms.

It’s hard to tell Renae’s story, but I can hear her saying, “Go on, Mom.” It’s the only thing I can do.”

“For a long time after Renae died, I couldn’t really believe she wasn’t coming back. It’s only been in these past several months that it’s started to really sink in. I have days that I don’t want to see anyone, but I try to stay strong for everyone else, including my children who are now 8, 5 and 2”

“That’s why herd immunity is so important. If there hadn’t been an outbreak when Renae was a baby, I don’t think she would have contracted it. She was eligible for the vaccine just seven months later, and I gave it to her, but it was too late.”

“Parents must realize that refusing vaccinations doesn’t just put your own child at risk. It puts other children at risk. I don’t know where Renae picked up measles. It’s one of the most contagious viruses that exists, and it could have been from anywhere.”

“That last weekend in the hospital, watching Renae die, was so traumatic. I told the doctors that I didn’t want them to continue the treatments. I could tell Renae was in distress, and I just wanted her to be at peace… On Monday morning, Sept. 25, 2023, Renae took her last breath.”

“We got the diagnosis when one of the tests of her spinal fluid had come back from London. Renae had subacute sclerosing panencephalitis, a rare complication of measles. The doctors told me it was fatal, & there was nothing else they could do.
I ran outside onto the hospital grounds &sat on a bench”

“She was transferred to the intensive care unit and given a breathing tube. Though she couldn’t speak to me, she still squeezed my hand when I talked to her. I worried she could overhear us talking about her condition, and wondered how scared and confused she must be.”

“Renae would ask me, “What could it be?” I told her once the doctors figured it out, they could make her better. Her voice got weaker and she started sleeping more and more.

Within a couple weeks, Renae had stopped talking and eating. Her last food was cotton candy and an Oreo doughnut”

“What I didn’t know was that measles can cause long-term complications. A child can seem fine while the virus slowly replicates in her brain… Because both Britain and the United States are confronting outbreaks, I am sharing my story. Parents should know just how dangerous this disease is.”

Measles is NOT "just like chickenpox". It can kill years later. This woman was so brave for coming forward with her story.

Trump Is Said to Be in Talks to Send Afghans Who Aided U.S. Forces to Congo

The Trump administration, after shutting down a resettlement program for Afghans who aided U.S. forces, is now negotiating to relocate up to 1,100 of those individuals to the Democratic Republic of Congo.

What they are basically saying is never help America ever since we will abandon you after you do.

This is so heinous, I do not know what to say. This shit devastates me.

ICE charter lands in Congo carrying 15 Latin American migrants The Democratic Republic of Congo becomes the eighth African nation known to have taken third-country nationals from the Trump administration.

Trump’s ICE started DRC third-country removals last week with 15 people from Latin American countries.

And we sent an Iraqi interpreter who had helped US military to Rwanda last year.

There is no bottom.
