Hype for the Future 184S: Cities of Harrisonburg and Charlottesville, Virginia
Overview — City of Harrisonburg The City of Harrisonburg is a city located within the physical boundaries of Rockingham County and is politically independent from the surrounding county, while also serving as the county seat. Today, the community is associated with James Madison University and a notable downtown area, with the area associated with significant student heritage as well as a cultural center for the Mennonite community of the area, largely south from the modern Commonwealth of […] -
'An [ICE] official who resigned this month from his job instructing new recruits came forward on Monday as a whistle-blower, describing what he said was a “deficient, defective and broken” training program... even in the final days of training, the cadets cannot demonstrate a solid grasp of the tactics or the law required to perform their jobs.'

The reason is the same excuse they gave for calling the #NeoNazi's marching in #Charlottesville at the start of his first term, "some I assume are fine people.""We don't want to alienate anyone."
He doesn't hesitate to name-call EVERYONE he dislikes and/or accuse them of crimes, but if they vote for HIM, "show them deference". 😞

Robin D.G. Kelley, a historian at UCLA whose scholarship on #RacialInjustice also landed him on the #ProfessorWatchlist, is struck by how rapidly our society has changed since #Trump took office a 2nd time.
Kelley pointed to the fact that Trump was widely condemned during his first term when he called the #WhiteSupremacists who rallied in #Charlottesville, VA, “very fine people.”

It drives me nuts that #Democrats have been cowed into taking the "both sides" high-road, unwilling to assign blame... WHILE T**** is out there blaming "the radical Left", #Kirk's wife attacking "THEY" & "THEM" who did this, and RW pundits blaming #Democrats for the rise in #PoliticalViolence.
As I listed above, from the murder of the Hortmans, #Jan6, the #Charlottesville Nazi's, #Pelosi's husband, #Shapiro's home… the side deserving the most blame is not being blamed.

#RWNJ gun totin' nut job #Amurica is so wrapped up in #hatred for #TheLeft it conveniently blames anyone that isn't a seething foaming at the mouth member of its own #intolerance fueled #DoomLoop for the murder of its #martyr of the moment.
These #Koch fueled mini MAGAT movements and post #Charlottesville cultists get so wrapped up pointing fingers with one hand, masturbating their precious #gunstocks and zeig heiling #DearLeader with the other, never looking in the mirror at their own painfully petty prejudices and hateful hell spawn that stew and seethe in shadows.
The internal dissensions and feuds fueling #radicalized #RightWing rhetoric is what prompts violent fools like the latest guy that took out #CharlieKirk ...but the #PresidentialPropagandist #Punditry and #FauxNews keep beating the #wardrums to blame #Leftists and #LibTurds in a #Reichstag fire event, while #HolocaustDeniers and #Groypers have received free passes to dine at the #Drumpf #WhiteHouse
It's no secret #NickFuentes had been removed from both C-Pac and #TurningPointUSA events and accused Charlie Kirk of being a tool of "the Jews"... So I guess we better blame trans people for Kirk's death?
As David Gilbert wrote in Wired this week :
"For years, extremist groups, white nationalists, and militias like the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers saw Charlie Kirk not as their ally, but as their enemy.
Though Kirk denigrated trans people, Muslims, unmarried women, and many minorities and advocated for an America with Christianity at the center of every aspect of life, he was, in their view, a moderate. For some, his staunch support of Israel’s government made Kirk a target rather than a friend."

Back at the Forum: Charlottesville Getting Closer
As we have said before, it is nice to have a real hotel in Charlottesville these days (even if it is a post-IHG Kimpton). Though the building and grounds are excellent, operational kinks hold the property back. For example, how can your paid in advance room category be "not quite ready" for checking at 4:45pm? Who is in charge here? Not to mention nothing on the upgrade side you were promised. Terrible ops. Fortunately we're just here for a night. We were in (hamster cage) 574. Last […]https://noplasticshowers.com/2025/04/18/back-at-the-forum-charlottesville-getting-closer/

The short version: this is good news, at least in theory. The plaintiffs who took the organizers of Unite the Right to court have now been awarded $350k in damages each, rather than the $43,750 a previous ruling had given them.
The Fourth District Court of Appeals in Richmond, VA, has partially reversed a previous reduction of punitive damages awarded in the Sines v. Kessler trail.
That trial, which ended in 2021, awarded the plaintiffs $24 million in damages, but a subsequent ruling noted that Virginia law caps damages at $350k. The way the court read the law, the cap applied to all of the plaintiffs collectively, so they were to divide that $350k between them.
The new 3-0 ruling by the 4th district changes that, so that the cap applies to each plaintiff individually. So they're supposed to get $350k each.
However, I tend to think the likelihood that they'll see much of that money remains low. Some of it will likely come via James Fields, the driver of the car that killed Heather Heyer and injured many others. Fields was represented at trial by a lawyer sent by his auto insurance company, because they're the ones who are mostly on the hook for this. So they'll most likely fork over at some point when it's clear they're just throwing good money after bad.
But most of the other defendants have either declared bankruptcy or made themselves extremely scarce since before the trial even started. Richard Spencer comes from a wealthy family (as though that wasn't obvious), and I wouldn't cry if their money were seized, but he seems to have divested himself fairly well, so we'll see how that plays out. I tend to believe that Matthew Heimbach and Matt Parrott don't actually have much money, because who the hell would hire them? Andrew Anglin has disappeared. Chris "the Crying Nazi" Cantwell is most likely legitimately broke due to his completely defective personality. Azzmador is alleged to have died recently after being AWOL for years. In short: probably not much of the additional $2 million they now collectively owe is likely to reach the plaintiffs.
So make of it what you will. This ruling is nice, but I suspect it's unlikely to materially change much for the plaintiffs or anyone else.

It was a choice to melt down #RobertELee. But it would have been a choice to keep him intact, too.
The statue of the #Confederate general that once stood in #Charlottesville — that prompted the deadly 2017 “#UniteTheRight” rally — was cut into fragments & dropped into a furnace…
Melted down in secret, the divisive monument will be turned into a new piece of public art.
