The growing entanglement between Washington, the Pentagon and the tech giants is a topic I cover at some length in Deep Connections. We are witnessing in real time an unprecedented level of power concentration, fuelling and fueled by similarly unprecedented geopolitical and technological change.

This Schlicter is just another imitation Soldier that presents a strong case for disbanding the National Guard. Just another poser. I’d be interested in the identity of the Cav Sqdn he commanded, since it had 1,200 Soldiers — making it both unique and one of the largest Squadrons of all time…

The Stolen Neighbors Quilt on display at the Minnesota State Capitol on Tuesday. 11,000 squares, each donated square represents someone who was detained by ICE. The quilt was made to honor and remember those that suffered and are suffering at the hands of ICE. Credit @mprnews

Five corporations control 90% of the US media. Airlines have merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it. It was effectively banned as it never aired again. I wonder why. MEDIA-OPOLY

I do not like that this is contractor. I do not like that ICE is building effectively a domestic targeting team. This can be turned on citizens in a heartbeat. One of the ways to prevent authoritarian control is not building the means of that control.

Why does paper matter? NC voters use hand-marked paper ballots or ballot-marking devices that create a paper record. That physical record can be used to audit or recount results. Technology helps count votes. Paper helps verify the count. #TrustedNeighbors #NCPol #Civics #Community #Elections🗳️

Comments like that are why the increasing number of actual Independent/unaligned voters consider BOTH parties undemocratic. Most pollsters drive respondents into either a partisan answer or “undecided,” when the voters really know WHAT is important, vice WHO is important.1/2

Alright everybody, time to text the teachers in your life. The fall semester is open at SkypeAScientist and we are ready to match classrooms, scout troops, library groups, and more with scientists! Tell the educators in your life, and send them to SkypeAScientist.com
A frog uses its comically long tongue to catch a fleeing fly and the words say “send this to a teacher” pointing right. Then under the tongue it says “Skype a scientist matches classrooms with scientists for free Q&As” and there’s a little pond scene with lily pads and spatterdock flowers and a rock with a snail on it and a salamander with the words get a match at Skype scientist.com

All the indignation about these DSA folks who have lots of money reinforces the need to actually teach American history so people know about folks like TR and FDR, and the role they played in taking care of the people.
