Vermont's news media needs to ask Gov Scott, Gen Clark, Vermont National Guard, and Vermont State Police: How are YOU going to respond if the federal administration begins to or even attempts to seize ballots, counting machines, and other associated listings, forms, etc? #vtpoli

For me her greatest appeal is the promise of leadership. She has stated a vision, goals, and ideas of how to get there from here. We really really need that.

Clark was under no legal, moral, or ethical obligation to prosecute and persecute these pro-democracy defenders. Clark made the freewill decision to do so - I didn't vote for her because of this, wrote myself in instead.

This concept regarding age and brain development is also a fantastic reason to force a minimum age for police and military. I would suggest the mid-twenties.

Quick reminder for #vtpoli - Charity Clark was and is under no legal, ethical, or moral duty to prosecute Vermont's pro-democracy protesters. Clark is choosing to do so of her own volition. I voted, and I didn't vote for her. I hope you won't either - leave a blank line.

It's extremely curious that AI is being pushed as a means to do more with less, yet when it comes to public surveillance, there is never any discussion as to reducing the number of police. Never. It's almost like our governments are setting up a system to surveil and control us peons (ie "people").

When I was 11, 12, 13 I was seriously into reading about Greek gods and heroes (including a book of that actual name). Many of the names in those books took literally decades for me to learn how to pronounce them properly. Phonetics wasn't any help.

The Democratic Party (the group - not necessarily the individuals left to their own devices), the Democratic Party here in Vermont and at the the national level is the surrender monkey party.
An illustration featuring the three wise monkeys on the left, rendered in detailed black line art, seated side by side covering their eyes, ears, and mouth, labeled below as "SEE NO EVIL," "HEAR NO EVIL," and "SPEAK NO EVIL." To their right stands a cartoon-style monkey with a somber expression, wearing a white neck scarf and holding a tall white surrender flag on a pole. Next to the cartoon monkey, red text reads: "Found an excuse to not be the person they know they should have been."

The US government banned future foreign drones from reaching our shores, but Zero Zero Robotics might have found a loophole: its latest $750 Versa drone isn’t a drone, it claims, but rather a DJI Pocket-style mini steadycam with optional snap-on propellers that let it fly.

I read the article, and, as is the case with the GOP, the author says Fauci made mistakes without enumerating even a single one. All the author could do was blame Fauci based upon hindsight and knowledge that wasn't available back when Fauci made his decisions.

This image features a political meme divided into two contrasting sides under the main heading "FreeDOM vs freeDUMB!". The left side, representing "FreeDOM," displays a white flag with blue stripes at the top and bottom, bearing the text "Liberty and justice FOR ALL brought to you only by liberal democracy" in bold red and blue lettering. The right side, labeled "freeDUMB!", presents a satirical parody of the Gadsden flag against a solid yellow background. It depicts the iconic rattlesnake wearing a red baseball cap and a red ball gag, held on a leash, with the modified caption beneath reading "TREAD ON ME PLEASE DEAR SUPER RICH DADDY". The bottom of the meme concludes with the centered, bold blue message, "CHOOSE WELL, NEIGHBORS, CHOOSE WELL".

When it comes to candidates like Graham Platner the question is not how will this play politically? Or saying we need to look better than the GOP. It's a question of what are our values as a party--and as individuals? Do we want to be associated with whoever the candidate is in question?

Actually there isn't any paradox involved - if someone is trying to subjugate or kill you, then you have a responsibility to NOT tolerate them. It's called self defense, and self defense is an obligation to those around you.
An internet meme featuring a stick-figure illustration addressing political polarization and the "paradox of tolerance." At the top, bold red text reads "Stop saying this," pointing down via a blue arrow to two central figures, clad in blue and red dresses, who are hugging and asking in a speech bubble, "Can't we just all be friends?" To their left stand three marginalized figures—a Black individual, a person wearing a rainbow flag shirt, and a person wearing a transgender pride flag dress—all looking highly skeptical and uncomfortable. To the right of the central pair stand three aggressive figures representing white supremacy, far-right extremism, and state authority: a person wearing a red "Make America Great Again" style hat and a Confederate flag shirt while holding a shotgun, a figure in a white Ku Klux Klan robe and hood, and a police officer wearing sunglasses and holding a handgun. At the bottom, bold red text concludes: "The answer is 'fuck no' And learn about the paradox of tolerance."
