Use of Signal so no FOI, no record, US
Kevin Carroll, who worked under
the corrupter's officials in
2017-2020, believes that the choice of Signal for the Yemen bombing
chat was not mere stupidity. Quite the contrary: it had a practical
purpose:
to
hide the chat and records of it from any official investigation.
If they had used the official systems for secret
communication, there would be records about the chat and its
participants; some official could have investigated it.
That is a crime, right? But no one in the government who has the
authority to investigate and punish such cheaters will go against
per corrupt master.
*National Security Adviser Michael Waltz
reportedly
conducted official business via Gmail.*
Thanks to the fortuitous inclusion of a journalist in the chat, the
Pentagon can, and will, investigate.

Flooding in Australia
A region of Australia larger than Texas
has
been flooded by 2 weeks of
heavy rain. Many towns, have been cut off, and many have been inundated.
Around 200,000 cattle have died.
I don't think it will be feasible to build flood defenses for that.
Perhaps they could put all buildings on stilts in the area likely to
be flooded.

Bill to overrule tariff increases
Senators (of both parties)
introduced
a bill to permit Congress
to overrule tariff increases.
It is not clear whether this would apply to tariffs adopted shortly
before the bill was passed. It would need to do that if it is to give
Congress the ability to remove the tariffs that
the wrecker imposed
last week.

Clean streets and recycling in Indian city
The Indian city of Indore has made a
clean
streets and recycling
campaign really work, even training people to reject the old habits of
dropping trash on the street.
Success has continued for 8 years.
My mother taught never to drop trash on the street, and I am glad she
did. In Boston I occasionally tell a stranger "you just dropped
something" which seems to be trash, hoping it will lead to a change of
habit. But this would be far more effective as part of a general
campaign. And having trash bins everywhere would certainly help.
Near my home, you have to walk for blocks to find one.

Corruption charges dropped against New York's mayor
The US government gave New York's
night-mayor his side of its
(unacknowledged) deal with him, but
dropping
corruption charges.
Letting corrupt officials buy their way out of prosecution by bowing to
the tyrant is even worse corruption than what he was charged for,
but it may not be illegal.

Hungary leaving International Criminal Court
Hungary, which invited Netanyahu to visit and refused to arrest him,
is leaving
the International Criminal Court.
It was Dubya
who made the US start fighting against the ICC, when he
saw it might prosecute American war criminals that the US government
failed to prosecute. I wonder if it would have prosecuted
Dubya for
invading
Iraq based on falsified
"intelligence" about the
fictional
"weapons of mass destruction" if the US were a member.

If global heating makes insurance unfeasible
An executive of Allianz, one of the largest insurance companies, warns
that if global heating
makes insurance unfeasible, many other parts of
the of the financial and market systems will
cease
to be possible.
Even states cannot afford to insure when disasters become too frequent.
If investments become so unpredictable that they are inherently
unprofitable, neither individuals nor corporations nor states will
be able to invest.
As he says, all is not lost. We can fix this, if we apply the
zero-emissions technology we already have — quickly.
However, to do so depends on first defeating the
planet roasters'
political power, and that fight has been going against us.

Bully's excuses are not his real concerns
Robert Reich: *Stop treating [the bully's] excuses as his real
concerns&hellp; [His] major interest is capitulation itself. Surrender
is the
whole point. He and those under him who are managing these
extortionate initiatives want headlines that say "they" have
surrendered to him — whether "they" is a country, a major university,
a large law firm, a big nonprofit, even a Democratic state like
California. Surrender is the point. Domination is his goal. (It always
has been.)
Reich urges the victims — whether universities, or law firms, or
trade partners — to unite and resist.

Price of protest in Britain today
George Monbiot: *Vilified, arrested, held incommunicado: that's the
price
of protest in Britain today.*
The government labels protesters as "terrorists", which is qualitative
and quantitative exaggeration of what they plan to do. The
thugs seem
to believe that propaganda, and treat these "conspiracies" as very
dangerous. (Are they trying to increase the credibility of their
exaggeration by pretending to believe it? Are
thug chiefs misleading
the rank and file thugs?)
The protesters' bombastic slogan, "shut down London", may have
encouraged the thugs'
own exaggeration, but does not excuse it. If
they are fooled so easily, they are doing their job badly.
The article describes and prove that the government's
policy towards protests is biased (repress the left), in accord
with its politics, and traces it to the influence of lobbying.
As Labour's policies become ever more right-wing, it is
losing
the support
of its party members, as well as the voters.
