When Tom Homan, Trump and other Republicans defend the masking of ICE agents, I can't help but think of Orson Welles announcing on his radio show his intention of identifying the South Carolina police officer who violently attacked and blinded the uniformed Black veteran Isaac Woodard in 1946.

Naming the policeman Officer X, Welles addressed him directly. "Wash your hands, Officer X. Wash them well. Scrub and scour, you won't blot out the blood of a blinded war veteran," Welles said. "Go on, suckle your anonymous moment while it lasts. You're going to be uncovered. We will blast out your name! We'll give the world your given name, Officer X. Yes, and your so-called Christian name. It's going to rise out of the filthy deep like the dead thing it is."

This is how "detention centers" become death camps. This is historically how regimes create death camps in a straightforward progression: 1 Detain people 2 Let detainment centers get full 3 People start getting sick/dying 4 Start murdering detainees pre-emptively (claim health reasons) We're at #3

It’s like if George Bush has launched the Iraq War but didn’t bother to even lie about why he was doing it, didn’t even try to claim what the goal was, and didn’t even ask Congress to authorize it. That’s what Trump is doing now, and everyone is just acting like it’s normal. This is not normal.

In Maine, masked federal agents stopped a car that contained a baby, and smashed a window. "Glass sprayed over the baby’s car seat." They took the baby's father who was driving, leaving the mother who does not have a driver's license alone in the car with the baby. On video:

This is a cover up of a murder, led by our own federal government.

Screenshot of an X post by Omar Jimenez (@OmarJim…, 7h) stating that Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison says he doesn’t have the names of the agents who shot Alex Pretti, adding: “I’ve been a lawyer for 36 years. I’ve never seen anything like this before.” Below is a CNN video thumbnail showing a split screen: on the left, an older man in a black cap and glasses labeled “Brown | Business Owner,” and on the right, Keith Ellison in a suit.

Message to fellow journalists (and anyone claiming to be one): do not “police-involved shooting” executions in broad daylight. Obfuscating language like that is completely journalistically unnecessary and, even worse, sanitizes reality. Words have meaning. Use the right ones.

The core truth of the Trump era, and the one that journalism is forbidden from stating out loud, is that Trump has gathered around him a constituency of the country's worst people. That's what most distinguishes them -- not economic status, age, where they live, anything else. It's shittiness.

Imagine doing a PhD in electricity, just so you knew how to blow up nuclear power plants and heavy water-producing facilities. “I learned from them very early that what one does with Nazis is kill them... I am not a pacifist.” A profile in absolute courage.

The A.N.C., in a statement, called Dr. Christie’s role “in disrupting and exposing the apartheid state’s clandestine nuclear weapons program” an “act of profound revolutionary significance.”

From the doctoral dissertation he had written at the University of Oxford on the history of electricity in South Africa, Dr. Christie provided the research needed to blow up the Koeberg Nuclear Power Station; the Arnot coal-fired power station; the Sasol oil-from-coal facilities that produced the heavy water critical to producing nuclear weapons; and other critical sites.

Many of his family members fought with the Allied forces against the Germans in World War II, and “I learned from them very early that what one does with Nazis is kill them,” he said at a 2023 conference on antinuclear activism in Johannesburg. “I am not a pacifist.”
