My (not so) wild guess is that #Trump will talk about #Greenland for as long as the #Renee_Good killing by #ICE has media traction.
They are SO desperate now to shift the focus. Please, #USA - don't let this killing end up in nothing. And media MUST keep their eyes on the other balls the Trump administration wants to kill off.

- Proper due process of #MaduroNicolas and what's happening in #Venezuela
- #Russia's continuos aggression in #Ukraine and the failing #US involvement
- ... and a ton of other topics the #Trump2 administration tries hard to avoid getting focus.

Aim: The experiment studied obedience to authority, exploring whether individuals would obey instructions to harm another person because an authority figure told them to.

Conclusion: The study demonstrated that ordinary people are surprisingly likely to obey authority figures, even when those orders conflict with their own moral beliefs."
With the atrocities ordered by #Putin & #Netanyahu, and now seeing #Trump2 blatantly ignoring the laws of the land undoing decades of democratic progress, it's interesting that the following article on this study was published again only a few days ago ...

I'm about 1/3 of the way through reading Alternative Liberties, the latest anthology from Bob Brown's B Cubed Press, a publisher who had run two of my stories in the anthology that came out immediately before this one. The standouts for me in the first third of the book were the ones by Adam-Troy Castro, Paula Hammond, and Karen G. Anderson.
