“However, let’s be clear: while we Proud Boys are considering changing the name of our group, ‘Elderly Boys’ is not one of the options in the mix,” the former Proud Boy said.

And the grift goes on Special counsel Jack Smith may be investigating Donald Trump’s defrauding his followers after he lost the 2020 election. Raw Story (Sarah K. Burris): Speaking to MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace on Tuesday, Tim Heaphy related suspected financial dealings based on claims that the election was stolen to an operation that was selling snake oil. “He’s looking for more evidence of the big grift,” he explained. “We laid this out in great detail during one or more of our hearings and it is outlined in the report. A lot of people were profiting from this false narrative that the election was stolen. Save America PAC raised $250 million after the election by telling people that the election was stolen. Sidney Powell set up a nonprofit and legal defense fund in which those same lies led to a lot of people giving money.” Wallace played a clip of the House committee’s hearing showing screen captures of over 25 email solicitations that the Trump campaign sent out in a single day.

The president and the humble staircase: a short survey.
until its district turned blue Politico: A federal court struck down Alabama’s congressional map on Tuesday, after GOP state lawmakers refused the court’s mandate to draw a second majority-Black district. The three-judge panel wrote that it was “deeply troubled” that the state legislature declined to draw two majority-Black districts. The same court ruled last year that it should draw a second majority-Black district to comply with the Voting Rights Act. The Supreme Court affirmed the ruling from the lower court earlier this year. Alabama Republicans refused to comply. The three-judge panel writes: We do not take lightly federal intrusion into a process ordinarily reserved for the State Legislature. But we have now said twice that this Voting Rights Act case is not close. And we are deeply troubled that the State enacted a map that the State readily admits does not provide the remedy we said federal law requires. We are disturbed by the evidence that the State delayed remedial proceedings but ultimately did not even nurture the ambition to provide the required remedy. Their remedial maps remediated nothing. And now?
Congratulations, you have officially leveled up to menopause. You might be feeling anxious about the many ways that your body is changing, especially your vagina. But rest assured that even though the bloom may be off the rose, your flower is not yet withered.
Lean down and take an open and honest look at your maturing vagina. What do you see? Have you gained a few extra pounds of labia? Is your clit wearing a bifocal monocle? Is your pubic hair styled in a neat and sensible bob cut?
Don’t be alarmed. Your vagina may not be stylish, but this new look is proof that your vagina is confident, comfortable, and secure in the knowledge that it will no longer bleed on your sheets, get poked by a sideways tampon, or be considered a suitable exit route for a FULLY FORMED HUMAN BEING WITH A HEAD THE SIZE OF A SMALL CANTALOUPE.

The Government’s education policy merges austerity with a deep hostility towards those working in schools and an indifference to those studying in them. These qualities have shaped the incompetent policy-making that has dominated the last thirteen years. The pandemic and its aftermath displayed this combination in disastrous technicolour, and the teacher recruitment and retention crisis […]
#CoFi conversion course and discourse
I just came back from the 3rd CryptoCommons Gathering at the Commons Hub in Austria. I was financed to create a course to introduce the notion of Collaborative Finance to the blockchain demographic. Perhaps a midsummer conference isn't the ideal setting for a daily one hour class, or mky time-slot wasnt't ideal, but around 1/4 to 1/3 of the participants attended each day. The four lessons were:
- Unlearning money
- Credit vs commodity monies
- Credit, Exchange and banking
- Collaborative finance
On the final day there was a motion to do sessions by the riverside, so I abbreviated the final class to reach a wider audience, and was blessed to be videoed in full flow by Zach of Moneyless Society while I was expounding on the structures of credit.
