CW: It's hard not to agree with this attorney. When it comes to upholding the law, Garland has done a weak ass job! There should be serious penalties on the GOP for trying to steal an election and then stonewalling investigations. We are, after all, talking about losing our democracy, and virtually the entire GOP is in on the plot to take it down in one form or another. All the ones with balls and sanity have already walked or been thrown out. All that's left are the ones who don't care about our democracy, their oaths of office or are total cowards. Perhaps Biden and Garland still haven't woken up to the fact that politics as usual is now pretty much dead. When the other side isn't willing to play by the rules or even play the game democracy, you have to change your tactics. It doesn't matter if you alienate a good chunk of the GOP base, they are already alienated and living in a pseudo-reality that is virtually impenetrable. Come on Biden (use the damn bully pulpit) and Garland! Be above board and transparent, follow the law, but don't sit back timidly and let them trample our democracy into dust! Legendary Attorney Eviscerates Garland ‘Resign or Be Fired!’ and Has Harsh Words for Biden ‘Defend the Country from Trump!

#DemsNeedBackbones"It can be difficult at times to truly appreciate what’s happening to this country. We are right on the brink of a dictatorial overthrow of the government, which is exactly what’s going to happen if Trump is CLOSE in the next election. The Republicans fully believe that the 2020 election was stolen. Indeed, Rupert Murdoch will not settle the Dominion case precisely because he doesn’t want to have to issue an on-air apology and admit they were wrong. He would rather absorb the loss than lose his audience. He wants his viewers happy, and they’re happy to think that Trump actually won. In that sense, they believe they’re owed a victory in 2024. If that election is close, at all, they will claim victory and use whatever Electoral College tactics it takes to lift Trump to victory. If all else fails, they’ll fight.
Meanwhile, Democrats will stand back and ask why it is we’re FORCED to share the presidency when Democrats now always win the popular vote, next time – in my opinion – by ten million.
And we’re at this stage in our history because Merrick Garland has utterly failed on every level. I won’t tolerate hearing from anyone that “these things take time,” or that they’re doing something “big” soon. Fine. I hope so. But that doesn’t excuse that JUST NOW, Mike Pence is fighting a subpoena, and not in July 2021 but 2023, only after Trump has started campaigning!! Trump was largely HATED for months after 2021, and the vaccine was starting the economy again. That was the time to investigate Trump AND only the rioters who violently injured cops. Instead, Garland set about using massive resources to arrest people who broke windows, letting Trump go. Indeed, from the outside, it appears it was only Congress’s successful investigation that pushed DOJ into investigating Trump. After all, DOJ was asking Congress for its transcripts.
Now legendary attorney John Flannery, who often appears on MSNBC, looks like Robert Redford, you know him, has had enough. He wants Garland to resign or be fired. Garland has failed to protect and defend the Constitution. He also chastises Biden for not standing up for the judicial process, not calling out Trump to shut up about judges and the FBI. It is truly a must-see video"

Well I think at this stage there is more danger in reopening barely stitched #brexit wounds. It is an uncomfortable fact a fair proportion - over 20% - of #labourVoters chose #leave in 2016. So prior to a #GE there is danger in talk of #rejoin or #FoM - I suspect #starmer would prefer to say nothing at all about the #EU
Once in #10, then policy develops..... but big changes must be in a #manifesto - so IMO that would be #2018GE at the earliest -

Regulating cannabis is a no-brainer at this stage. We know it's going to happen. Better to have Ireland participate in leading this change rather than lagging and let others dictate the agenda. #CannabisReformIreland

A Look Back at Team 7 #3 (1994)
Disclaimer: This is my original work with details sourced from reading the comic book and doing personal research. Anyone who wants to use this article, in part or in whole, needs to secure first my permission and agree to cite me as the source and author. Let it be known that any unauthorized use of this article will constrain the author to pursue the remedies under R.A. No. 8293, the Revised Penal Code, and/or all applicable legal actions under the laws of the Philippines.
Welcome back superhero enthusiasts, 1990s arts and culture enthusiasts, Image Comics fans and comic book collectors! Today we go back to the year 1995 to take a close look at one of the many tales of the original WildStorm universe through one of the comic books of the first mini-series of Team 7.
For the newcomers reading this, Team 7 is set in the past within the original WildStorm universe. This is the special forces team that had major WildStorm heroes – Grifter (WildCATS: Covert Action Teams), Backlash, Jackson Dane (Wetworks), John Lynch (Gen13) and Michael Cray (Deathblow) – who were younger, were proficient with combat and gained special abilities as a result of a sinister move by their superiors. Issue #2 took place after the team got exposed to something they never anticipated and their superiors knew it.
With those details laid down, here is a look back at Team 7 #3, published in 1994 by Image Comics with a story written by Chuck Dixon and drawn by Aron Wiesenfeld. This is the 3rd chapter of a 4-issue mini-series.
The cover.Early story
Set in the 1970s, the surviving Team 7 members (already exposed to the chemical agent) are in the middle of a new mission somewhere in East Africa. Because their teammate Johnson abused his new power to manipulate a black general to kill himself against his own will, Cole Cash eliminates Johnson causing John Lynch to be outraged. Cash tells Lynch that Johnson lost himself completely. He also tells him to list Johnson as MIA (missing-in-action) and turn a blind eye as before.
Lynch points his gun at Cash’s head believing he is standing for the mission and rules. After Cash tells him that they are monsters and that the world is better off without them, Lynch relents and shoots the wall instead. The mission concludes and Team 7 goes home by helicopter.
As the ride goes on, John Lynch thinks very deeply about everything that happened since they got exposed to the chemical agent. He realizes that they were exposed to genetic altering elements and wonders if he and his teammates were nothing more than lab rats for International Operations (IO)…
Quality
John Lynch in the presence of his traitorous superiors following the East African operation.If there is anything notable here apart from the continued dark and gritty tone, the plot really thickened clearly. At this stage, it is more obvious that the superiors have indeed something more sinister planned for Team 7 to endure. They know that the infected team members are closing ranks to protect itself which means they are ready for the so-called final test.
Along the way, John Lynch gradually realizes the evil of his superiors and being the field leader, he begins to analyze what is best for him and his teammates and which options to take knowing the betrayal from above. Quitting is simply not an option for Lynch and the pressure builds up as the story went on. Cole Cash here sees things very clearly and he easily became the pathfinder among Team 7 members. When he scolds his teammate Fairchild (father of Gen13’s Caitlin Fairchild) for abusing his power in a public place while off-duty, it is clear that Cash wants to keep the team together by means of keeping together while maintaining sanity.
As for Team 7 itself, there is something intriguing that awaits readers once they start their new mission here. I won’t spoil it and it has to be seen. Simply grab a copy of this comic book, read it and pay attention to the details. It’s strong stuff from the creative team.
Conclusion
Cole Cash (Grifter) talks sense into John Lynch about what has really been going on and why they have become monsters.Team 7 #3 (1994) has a lot of intrigue as the plot thickened. At this stage, it is clear that IO is really up to no good and Team 7 is symbolically their scientific and military experiment. Fortunately for the team, they have John Lynch and Cole Cash as the reasonable members who are able to cut through the noise and became aware of what IO has been executing. The stage is set for the concluding issue and this comic book is indeed a solid build-up and also an engaging WildStorm read.
Overall, Team 7 #3 (1994) is recommended.

@theyycmonk I’m not sure about proton at this stage. There’s #xprivo which guarantees privacy and no logging and is European. It’s not the smartest but it has a useful search engine.

CW: :boost_ok: disabled, trans friend of mine needs funds for a hotel to escape family violence $0/$400 (cw (little to no details): abuse, transphobia, death, police) UPDATED
update 2025-05-09: i fucked up & deleted this toot because i thought the hashtags didn't work. 🫠 also, i haven't received any funds for this...... i've reduced the goal from $550 to $400 because that's probably more obtainable. please help me help my friend out if you're able to. even $5 will help. if you're not able to send funds, please boost this.
original: a good friend of mine - who needs to remain anonymous for their safety - is trying to escape their family's home because they's been abused by said family for most of their life & they've had enough. my friend came out as trans to their family a few years ago, which unfortunately made the abuse worse. 1 of their relatives that they currently live with has even made multiple death threats to their face in the past couple of years, but so far hasn't gone any further than that, thankfully.
i'll be collecting the funds for them & passing them along. we're not sure how much they'll need, but i know a couple nights' stay in a hotel is about $400, & they'll need money for food & safe transportation via a taxi or similar. my friend's got a place they can move in a couple of weeks. they just really need some time to safely rest & recuperate & organise their life before then.
i've also recommended that they change their phone number so their family can't easily contact them, which might have a fee attached, but we don't know at this stage. my friend told me that they's contacted family/domestic violence orgs & the police in the past, but none of them have helped. the fv org didn't even have a record of my friend contacting them when they tried again.

CW: :boost_ok: disabled, trans friend of mine needs funds for a hotel to escape family violence $0/$400 (cw (little to no details): abuse, transphobia, death, police) UPDATED
update 2025-05-09: i fucked up & deleted this toot because i thought the hashtags didn't work. 🫠 also, i haven't received any funds for this...... i've reduced the goal from $550 to $400 because that's probably more obtainable. please help me help my friend out if you're able to. even $5 will help. if you're not able to send funds, please boost this.
original: a good friend of mine - who needs to remain anonymous for their safety - is trying to escape their family's home because they's been abused by said family for most of their life & they've had enough. my friend came out as trans to their family a few years ago, which unfortunately made the abuse worse. 1 of their relatives that they currently live with has even made multiple death threats to their face in the past couple of years, but so far hasn't gone any further than that, thankfully.
i'll be collecting the funds for them & passing them along. we're not sure how much they'll need, but i know a couple nights' stay in a hotel is about $400, & they'll need money for food & safe transportation via a taxi or similar. my friend's got a place they can move in a couple of weeks. they just really need some time to safely rest & recuperate & organise their life before then.

The BBC bears not a little responsibility for this. Not only has it consistantly failed (we can even say "refused" at this stage) to hold Reform to account, it has actively and pointedly amplified its hateful rhetoric, while ignoring its failings #r4today

A Look Back at The Kindred #3 (1994)
Disclaimer: This is my original work with details sourced from reading the comic book and doing personal research. Anyone who wants to use this article, in part or in whole, needs to secure first my permission and agree to cite me as the source and author. Let it be known that any unauthorized use of this article will constrain the author to pursue the remedies under R.A. No. 8293, the Revised Penal Code, and/or all applicable legal actions under the laws of the Philippines.
Welcome back, superhero fans, 1990s arts and culture enthusiasts, Image Comics and comic book collectors! Today we go back to the mid-1990s to examine one of the many tales of the WildStorm universe through The Kindred mini-series.
Having read the first two issues, I can say that the plot has been built-up into something that justifies not only the reuniting of former Team 7 teammates Grifter and Backlash (who hate each other) but also the consequences caused by IO’s (International Operations) a long time prior. So far the creative team of WildStorm father Jim Lee, Brandon Choi, Sean Ruffner and artist Brett Booth succeeded in telling an entertaining story with a balance on action, suspense and intrigue.
With those details laid down, here is a look back at The Kindred #3, published by Image Comics in 1994 with a story written by Jim Lee, Brandon Choi, Sean Ruffner and Brett Booth. Booth illustrated the comic book.
The cover.Early story
The story begins with John Lynch being helpless in front of Bloodmoon, the vicious leader of the Kindred. Lynch tells him that he has no recollection of him, the Kindred and the crimes he has been accused of. Regardless, Lynch is being prepared for the trial under the Kindred’s system of justice.
Bloodmoon learns from one of his pawns that they captured the three men who were sent to rescue the prisoners. Two of the captured were sensed to have the Kindred’s blood within them. Bloodmoon then orders to have them brought to him immediately.
Minutes later, Grifter and Backlash – both battered and worn down – were brought to Bloodmoon.
Quality
Literally, the past bites Bloodmoon hard.Following the events of issue #2, there is a huge pay-off in this comic book and it added more depth into the plot. With Lynch, Backlash and Grifter – all of them were teammates in Team 7 a long time prior – helpless early in the story, the stakes really went high up as something significant about Bloodmoon and how the Kindred started got revealed.
Bloodmoon is not the typical comic book villain. His origin and how the Kindred was established are linked to the high-stakes experiments IO conducted on animals on Caballito (this makes IO’s top-secret experimentation on humans to unlock super-human potential literally just the tip of the iceberg). The way Bloodmoon was portrayed here, he is convinced that he exists with an undeniable purpose to lead the Kindred while getting striking back at humanity for vengeance starting with IO and former Team 7 members. The tragic events of the past made him a very hardened character and the living and walking evidence of IO’s unethical experimentation agenda.
Worth focusing here is, unsurprisingly, the uneasy new alliance between Grifter and Backlash who had no choice but to set aside their differences to survive and somehow bring down Bloodmoon deep within the turf of the Kindred. You will get a glimpse as to how they used to work during their time with Team 7 and how they could pull off tough achievements with their modern-day abilities and technology. The dynamics between the two former Team 7 teammates is a must-see and there are indeed 1980s Hollywood action film vibes embedded within.
Not to be outdone is John Lynch whose super-human potential gets unleashed while being in the middle of a very desperate situation facing three deadly enemies at once. Lynch here gets more of the spotlight and he does something else apart from serving as a convenient tool for exposition about IO and its past.
Conclusion
Grifter and Backlash on the run.As the plot moved closer to concluding, The Kindred #3 (1994) had the stakes raised a lot for the former Team 7 members involved as well as IO’s current people. The big reveal that happened late in the comic book was pretty powerful and it will encourage readers to focus more on the past operations of IO as well as Team 7. At this stage in the publishing history of Image Comics, WildStorm’s para-military concepts got solidified more effectively setting the stage for the launch of the original Team 7 mini-series. As for The Kindred mini-series, the engagement and entertainment value of issue #3 convinced me to go on to issue #4.
Overall, The Kindred #3 (1994) is recommended.
