"A MAGA occupation of a left-leaning city." If you look closer at what's happening on the streets of LA and DC, you'll see this is more than just "fighting crime"—it's a politically partisan occupation. @dfriedman.bsky.social reports on what's happening in the streets of DC.

Alligator Alcatraz. FL lawmakers are finally being let in—after Dems got turned away last week. Here’s the catch: the tour’s not ‘til Saturday They know the conditions are inhumane. Scrub the cages, hide the worst of it, and pray no one asks too many questions. Don’t let them sanitize the truth!

COVID is not a respiratory illness. It's an immune-evasive-&-corrupting multi-systemic disease that slips past the blood-brain barrier & dysregulates cellular function. Pass it on. (And you do—unless you ventilate & wear fitted N95 respirators, which >90% of you don't. Good luck with that)


Source: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1931312824004384

HA = hemagglutinin, the influenza H1N1 surface protein approximately equivalent to the sars-cov2 spike protein.

Bottom line: Covid is a multi-system disease not only a respiratory disease. That's why Long COVID can be so varied causing at least 200 possible symptoms.

Every time you get COVID, you run the risk of developing Long COVID. It isn't a binary condition, it is multi-systemic injury. That happens every time you catch it to some degree.

We don't know why it cripples some people, only that it does. Vaccines help prevent Long COVID, but not nearly as much as repeat infections increase the risk of it.

There is no cure for Long COVID.

BREAKING: Documents filed in court today assert that officials from El Salvador told the United Nations that it "facilitated the use of the Salvadoran prison infrastructure" by the U.S. but that "the jurisdiction and legal responsibility for these persons lie exclusively with the" U.S.
As set forth in the attached Report, the Government of El Salvador responded to the UN
inquiry opened by the four families asking about the disappearance of their family members:
1 The attached exhibit has redacted personal identifying information for the four men discussed in the WGEID report. Petitioners can file an unredacted version of the exhibit under seal at the Court's request, with the exception of one of the cases for particular privacy reasons related to that individual.
1
Case 1:25-cv-00766-JEB Document 160
Filed 07/07/25
Page 2 of 4
The Salvadoran State emphatically states that its authorities have not arrested, detained, or transferred the persons referred to in the communications of the Working Group. The actions of the State of El Salvador have been limited to the implementation of a bilateral cooperation mechanism with another State, through which it has facilitated the use of the Salvadoran prison infrastructure for the custody of persons detained within the scope of the justice system and law enforcement of that other State. In this context, the jurisdiction and legal responsibility for these persons lie exclusively with the competent foreign authorities, by virtue of international agreements signed and in accordance with the principles of sovereignty and international cooperation in criminal matters. In this regard, the actions attributable to the Salvadoran State are limited to its sovereignty and territorial jurisdiction, and therefore it cannot be held responsible for the failure to observe the principle of non-refoulement with respect to the persons mentioned.
Ex. 1 at 6, 9 (emphasis added).

Mayor Bass: This morning, it was frightening in Los Angeles to see tanks essentially rolling into MacArthur Park. It was an egregious show of force. I have no idea what their purpose was. I don’t even think they detained anyone. Los Angeles was peaceful before June 5. We need to go back to that.
