A sane US president would be talking about strategic reserve releases _tonight_. But if Shitstain were sane, and if the Republican Party was sane, we wouldn't fucking be here, now would we?

Y'know, people were talking about $125 a barrel within a week, I wasn't ruling it out but I didn't think we'd be queueing up for it on Monday morning

Russia's economy really has been auguring in, with debts surging, and a big part of that has been collapsing oil profits - illegal oil is cheaper to buy than market oil.

Now cheeto shitstain mcfuckface launches this iran nightmare and suddenly even illegal discount oil is gonna be REAL profitable.

I'm having a real hard time NOT connecting these.

[continued] And after an incident, the lines of investigative authority or prosecutorial authority can be very challenging to navigate.

But I think the Washington public expects their local sheriff or local police chief or officers that work for either to not simply watch if somebody in their community is having their rights violated.

This is setting up - by necessity, I want to be very clear about that - guidelines for direct conflict between Washington State and Federal agents.

There's unidentified/masked Federal fascist agent contexet in this, too, since that'll be illegal here real soon.

They're being pretty nonspecific in this because as _they_ put it they don't want to give away game plan. But:

27:38, Atty. Gen. Nick Brown:

What I would say is as a general matter, state and local law enforcement do not have to simply watch or look away if the law is being violated.

If they see somebody being assaulted unlawfully or attacked unlawfully or otherwise having their legal rights violated, we do not expect state and local officers to simply watch or do nothing.

It is important that each of those jurisdictions talk to their lawyers and legal teams, understand where those lines are drawn.

It's amazing how low the bar is for a pretty decent day. Trump got shut down on Greenland, Trump got shut down on tariffs, Canada's just fucken done and Europe finally seems to be listening. Normally today would've been a disaster, but by recent terms? It's not bad.

Being shut down on Greenland et al will mean naturally he and his crowd will take it out on people domestically, though, so get ready for it.

(Need whistle kits? I've got another 24 off the printer today.)

Today's Tuesday Tesla Takedown, _again_.

You can also protest other _related_ items - see last week and the Abolish ICE banner. People have a variety of signs. I make sure to keep tying it to Musk, because that's where we are.

Find a protest.

Join one.

If there's not one near you

start one.

https://actionnetwork.org/event_campaigns/teslatakedown

See you in Lynnwood.

Y'know, a couple of weeks ago, Russian state propaganda was talking about the US and Russia both attacking Europe at the same time and I was all "fuck I wish I could rule this out" and now I"m going "okay did you know something? Because now I'm thinking you knew something."

(eta: I went and looked it up; it's not specific enough to think they knew something, it's more wishcasting than reality, and I was remembering more impact than was legimiately there.)

One of the many, many evils the Nazi regime did was loot upon invading countries. You've heard about stolen art, perhaps, or gold, but it was up and down the scale. Individual soldiers looted too, often, sending "gifts" back home. It was one of the ways they propped up the fascist economy - well, that along with slave labour.

Is that what you want, America?

Because that's what he wants.

Is that _not_ what you want?

Stop using oil.

Oregon joins the Alliance

Y’know, Oregon took its sweet time joining the sanctuary state alliance, but looking over this bill I can see why. It is comprehensive.

Good job, Democratic Oregon lawmakers. Sanctuary state list updated.

(And a nod to the one and only one Republican who crossed over in support. But you should leave your party. They’re insane.)
