  6. A quotation from Ambrose Bierce

    INCORPORATION, n. The act of uniting several persons into one fiction called a corporation, in order that they may be no longer responsible for its actions. A, B and C are a corporation. A robs, B steals and C (it is necessary that there be one gentleman in the concern) cheats. It is a plundering, thieving, swindling corporation. But A, B and C, who have jointly determined and severally executed every crime of the corporation, are blameless. It is wrong to mention them by name when censuring their acts as a corporation, but right when praising.

    Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) American writer and journalist
    “Incorporation,” “Devil’s Dictionary” column, San Francisco Wasp (1885-10-03)

  16. NBC producer with family in Caracas reports they've all confirmed the bombings.

    They also report they're able to match up different videos, showing the same events. They seem to be anticipating fakes and are taking at least some countermeasures, so that's good.

  26. Jesse Lee: "Trump knew two things about Changpeng Zhao: he was convicted of despicable crimes, and he’s a family business partner making the Trumps billions of dollars in their presidential crypto-bribery scam. And that was all Trump needed to know to sign the Changpeng Zha pardon.

  27. #SeanCombs did not take the stand in his own defense, nor did his lawyers present any witnesses. Instead, they pointed to hundreds of texts & social media posts in which Ventura & Jane expressed enthusiasm for those sessions, despite the women later saying on the stand that they felt pressed & manipulated into planning & participating in them. These relationships, the defense team argued, were toxic & perhaps #abusive, but failed to meet the government's standards of federal #criminality.

  29. A quotation from Hannah Arendt

    You see, tyranny has been discovered very early, and very early really as an enemy. Still, it has never in any way prevented any tyrant from becoming a tyrant. It has not prevented Nero, and has not prevented Caligula. And Nero and Caligula have not prevented a more closer example of what the massive intrusion of criminality can mean for the political process.

    Hannah Arendt (1906-1975) German-American philosopher, political theorist
    Interview (1973-10) with Roger Errera, Office de Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française (ORTF)

  36. François #Bayrou is the current Prime Minister of #France.

    In 1996, violence was denounced in the elite catholic school of his constituency. He made an official visit as both the then Minister of National Education and a member of the National Assembly for a seat in Béarn (the province of the school). He told the regional press: "The people of Béarn felt these attacks with a sense of pain and a sense of injustice. […] All the checks were favourable and positive."

  37. Forestry Corporation of NSW has ‘a pattern’ of illegally damaging the environment, scathing judgment finds

    "A court has released a scathing judgment against the New South Wales’ state-owned forest agency, finding it had “a pattern” of illegally damaging the environment and had refused to accept the “true extent of the harm that it has caused”."

    "The Land and Environment Court fined the Forestry Corporation of NSW (FCNSW) $360,000 for offences related to the logging of 53 eucalyptus trees in environmentally significant forest near Eden, in the state’s south, after the black summer bushfires."

    "The court accepted an EPA submission that the agency had “a pattern of environmental offending, has not provided any compelling evidence of measures taken by it to prevent its reoffending, and does not accept the true extent of harm that it has caused by its offending...Justice Rachel Pepper agreed that any penalty imposed on the Forestry Corporation “must serve to deter it from future criminality”.

    “The government is ultimately responsible for the Forestry Corporation, and have a duty to protect the people and environment of NSW from this rogue state-owned corporation."
