RNE fashionably tardy

 Radical new energy news,  my dudes

 " . . . seeing some reasons for not being completely depressed about the future, locally and globally, some comments on the latest news.

The Columbia trustees announced today the appointment of Jennifer Mookin, the chancellor of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, as the next president of Columbia. Given the past behavior of the trustees I had been pessimistic about who would want this job and who they would pick, but from all indications, Mookin seems like a good choice (there's a statement from her here). I'm cautiously optimistic that she's coming in with an agenda of turning away from the trustee's policy over the last year of caving in to dictatorial illegality, repressing dissent and promoting bogus accusations of antisemitism in order to placate the Trump administration.

It will take quite a while to overcome the shameful reputation that Columbia has acquired due to the actions of the trustees. One early thing to watch for is whether Mnookin will maintain the current locked gate policy supposedly keeping us "safe", or return to an open campus.

Less locally, more people are starting to realize that Yes, It's Fascism. The people of Minneapolis are providing an inspirational example of what effective resistance to Fascism looks like. When you effectively challenge Fascists they start shooting you. Renee Good and Alex Pretti paid with their lives for their willingness to resist.

So far, it seems that these outrageous murders and the obvious lies about them in the face of overwhelming video evidence are having an effect. Even Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Journal and New York Post have editorials criticizing ICE and the Trump administration. Stephen Miller and the other Fascists now in control of the government are facing a decision: back down or keep going. If they continue what they are doing or double down, the resistance movement in Minneapolis will hopefully keep up the fight. Everyone should help with this in any way they can . . . "

 The govt is neutral.  Palantir is neutral.  Oracle is neutral.  Right?

Dead Man Walking

 ⚡🇺🇸 NEW - Bovino openly states that the identity of the ICE agent who killed Pretti will never be revealed, as this would amount to disclosing personal information. He claims to have already transferred the agent out of Minnesota jurisdiction and reinstated him. 

Many American say: "He is part of an extensive, open criminal coverup."

You can run -  but you can't hide

Try federated democracy

  Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen:

I think Europe has shown strength and unity in these past weeks. I am grateful, but I also have to say that this is the only way forward. 

We have to build a much stronger Europe. We need to become more self-sufficient, more competitive, and more independent. 

All advice is bad -  good advice is fatal

ANARCHISM (from the Gr. an and archos, contrary to authority), the name given to a principle or theory of life and conduct under which society is conceived without government - harmony in such a society being obtained, not by submission to law, or by obedience to any authority, but by free agreements concluded between the various groups, territorial and professional, freely constituted for the sake of production and consumption, as also for the satisfaction of the infinite variety of needs and aspirations of a civilized being. In a society developed on these lines, the voluntary associations which already now begin to cover all the fields of human activity would take a still greater extension so as to substitute themselves for the state in all its functions. They would represent an interwoven network, composed of an infinite variety of groups and federations of all sizes and degrees, local, regional, national and international temporary or more or less permanent - for all possible purposes: production, consumption and exchange, communications, sanitary arrangements, education, mutual protection, defence of the territory, and so on; and, on the other side, for the satisfaction of an ever-increasing number of scientific, artistic, literary and sociable needs. Moreover, such a society would represent nothing immutable. On the contrary - as is seen in organic life at large - harmony would (it is contended) result from an ever-changing adjustment and readjustment of equilibrium between the multitudes of forces and influences, and this adjustment would be the easier to obtain as none of the forces would enjoy a special protection from the state.

Nein, nein, nein, nein, nein

 This is grossly dishonest obfuscation

⚡🇮🇱 NEW - Netanyahu:

After we lost our land, we were spread around the world. In these distant lands, we were prominent.

When you are prominent, you raise a human passion called envy. 

When you fuse envy with vulnerability, the combination of being weak and prominent is antisemitism. https://blossom.primal.net/e0ddcda6ef16a37fab747614b992563e05b21a982b2bf749f553e641046202b7.mp4 

Antisemitism is MUCH more like weaponized religious bigotry .

 EVERY major call to crusade gave rise to pogroms against Jews. According to Augustine …

" ...Judaism, since Christ, is a corruption; indeed, Judas is the image of the Jewish people: their understanding of Scripture is carnal; they bear the guilt for the death of the Savior, for through their fathers they have killed Christ...”

The Crusades by Jonathan Smith

". .. they had also turned to scholars for justification of Christian violence and Gregory Vll had found in Anselm of Lucca, a partisan who, through a careful reading of the Fathers, above all Augustine of Hippo, would build a convincing case for Christian violence as something that could be commanded by God, was at the command of the Church and would, when properly used, be an expression of Christian love...

GOTT MIT UNS

Mussolini was a Catholic. Dolfuss was Catholic. Franco was Catholic.

Himmler, head of the SS, was a Catholic. The SS was set up on the Jesuit model. Goebbels was Catholic.

Hoss, the camp commandant of Auschwitz, was a Catholic. Frank,‘ the butcher of Poland ’, was Catholic.

The Croatian police-state of Pavelic's  Ustache  was Catholic. Pinochet was a Catholic.

Catholics all hate women's healthcare and have a long criminal history of child rape and assault.

A rare case

 Germany taking the moral high ground

⚡🇩🇪 NEW - Germany’s Merz on Minnesota:

I find the news we've been getting from the USA in the last few days indeed worrying. And it's obviously always one region or one city that is affected. 

I assume that the American authorities will now really clarify whether it was necessary to shoot here, whether there really was a threat to the officers involved.

In any case, I have to say I find this level of use of violence in the USA worrying, to put it that way. https://blossom.primal.net/5de08ee5c9611c9bc901d23cc8492a44f31b9cbec1313eff5b10e9712ec9816f.mp4

 " Globalized again.  This what you expected McClane? "

⚡️🇱🇧🇮🇷 NEW - Hezbollah Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem:

When Trump or others threaten to kill the leader (Khamenei), they are essentially threatening millions. This is not something that can be ignored. 

It is our collective responsibility to confront this threat. 

An assassination, God forbid, would be an assassination of stability in the region and the world. 

We have every right to take whatever actions we deem appropriate to meet this challenge.
