I was in my first formation flight yesterday! The Canadian Aviation Museum fleet (with @flightchops.bsky.social in his RV-14) did a flyover for a charity & I rode in the back of the Chipmunk (@peacewind.aero was in the back of the Harvard). I even got some stick time. More difficult than it looks!

The formation flight from my perspective in the back of the Chipmunk. The Harvard is opposite and the Stearman is in front

The Harvard and Steve’s yellow RV-14 in formation behind and to the right of the Chipmunk (photo by me in the back of the Chipmunk).

A fisheye view of the formation from a camera in the front of the Chipmunk. In the picture (a still from a video) the Stearman, Harvard, and RV-14 are visible in the diamond formation. Todd, who is in the front seat of the Chipmunk, is gesturing and I’m just barely visible in the seat behind him, concentrating on the Stearman while I try to keep us in the formation.

The internet comes for trump today for drowning dozens of kids in TX because he wrecked the National Weather Service. In a different time, another place that might matter. Not in America 2025. We did nothing after Sandy Hook. Sacrificing our children means nothing in America. It's who we are. 1/2

There is nothing to celebrate in America today, which is burning by self-immolation, locked in an orgy of unrestrained racism, misogyny and end-stage capitalism. Today, I value my EU citizenship like never before, its principles & privileges, like living freely across the EU. It is now invaluable.

In 2023, ICE's budget was $8.5B + 22k employees 2024: $9.6B 2025: $25.9B trump's Big Bill of Fascism adds: $8B for more agents $30B for admin + "bonuses" $75B for ICE over 4yrs. If bill passes, ICE gets 120B in 2026 That's why I'm leaving the US. It is now a police state hellscape. 1/3

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

Lander was accompanying an undocumented person out of a hearing, walking arm-in-arm to protect him from being snatched. When masked ICE agents grabbed the guy anyway, Lander refused to let go until he was shown a warrant. Instead of showing him the warrant, they cuffed him and dragged him away.

This is awful in southern Nevada. It’s important desert tortoise habitat, and encourages sprawl. It’s also going to be hard to get water for these areas. Groundwater is over allocated in these areas. Being an hour outside Las Vegas isn’t going to useful in any way for low-income workers.

PEACEFUL all over USA. When Red state govs. panic and call up the guard, they show they are afraid of their own voters. The only violence comes from the horrible violence in Minn and Trump's out-of-control assault on LA. Fascism is always violent. In a democracy we settle differences peacefully.

For @spitfirenews.com, I wrote about the police, military, and ICE escalating violence against immigrants, communities, journalists, officials, and anyone in their path—and how protestors are being blamed for it through abusive rhetoric known as DARVO. spitfirenews.com/p/the-argume...

spitfirenews.com

The argument against protestors is DARVO

The logic that enables abuse also enables authoritarianism.

It's worthwhile to pause for a moment and think about what a military operation to establish control over a major American city - let's say Los Angeles - would actually look like. The city of LA, which excludes most of the metro area, has nearly 4 million inhabitants. LA county has 10 million.

The claim that left-wing politics exist in the US is an illusion. There is no "Left" in America. That's how we get Sanders calling on the very institutions of US politics who enthusiastically helped bring fascism upon us to now end it. As if that's still possible with a fatally corrupt SCOTUS.

Bernie Sanders decrying deployment of National Guard to L.A. as authoritarianism and calls on the few Republicans and Congress who can still do so to stand up for the Constitution.
