Mining and persecution, SLV
El Salvador's autocratic president is putting environmental defenders
on
trial a second time, after their first trial found there was no
evidence of any crime.
The second trial has been carefully prepared so that the result will be
different. |

Predicting some aspects of appearance based on genes
Scientists can now
predict
some aspects of a person's appearance
from genes, but not reliably or completely enough that anyone
should be convicted of a crime on that basis.

Caving to the wrecker's pressure
*Billionaires and corporations leading TV networks and newspapers seem
to have caved
to the [wrecker]'s pressure.*
*"He's become America’s assignment editor."*
You can't expect to get real journalism from them any more.

Marco Rubio has gone to Panama
Marco Rubio has
gone
to Panama, perhaps to play the role of "good cop"
in contrast to the bully as "bad cop".
It would be dangerous for a repressive, expansionist great power, led
by a megalomaniac liar, to take control of the Panama Canal or systems
it depends on.

Temporary permission for Venezuelans to be in US
The persecutor
has canceled
the temporary permission of 300,000
Venezuelans to stay in the US, and has threatened 300,000 more.
They fled
Venezuela due to economic collapse caused by US sanctions
against Maduro's government, rejecting it as the US encouraged them to
do.
Maduro
is a tyrant, and action against his rule can be justified in
principle.
And the US claimed to be acting for the sake of Venezuelans who were
suffering from it. It was proper for the US to act on concern for
Venezuelans that suffered as a result, especially if they wanted to
cease their allegiance to Maduro.
However, with the persecutor
it is "all hatred, all the time".
Just remember, if you support him and you are not a billionaire,
your turn to be his victim will come.

Why the wrecker's tariffs are bad
*Why the wrecker's
tariffs will be
"very
bad for America
and for the world".*
I think the bully
intends these tariffs as a threats and expects
other countries to pay a big ransom — going beyond money — to avoid them.
If they do, the world economic harm of the tariffs themselves will not occur,
or not for long. But that would introduce a global empire of
the billionaires, who will steadily impoverish everyone else
and eventually wipe out most of humanity through
global heating.

Department of Transportation impose no mask or vaccine requirements
The Department of Transportation has imposed the irrelevant
requirement on cities and states
not
to make mask or vaccine
requirements.
Also the irrelevant preference for places that have higher
marriage and birth rates.
The magats
who have seized the US government are looking for every way
to impose their religion and their superstition on all Americans.

Prohibiting many medical procedures to include abortion
Magats
in Wyoming propose to
prohibit
many kinds of medical procedures
in order to prohibit abortion as well.
It seems their prohibition on causing harm *to the heart, lungs, brain
and other organs* is meant to refer to the organs of a fetus, but
would also cover those that harm to the patient's own organs, and that
is an unavoidable cost of many important treatments. For instance cancer
treatments often damage some organs, but patients accept that because it
is preferable to dying.
