Russian National Rams US Fuel Tanker

This fuel tanker the Stena Immaculate isn't just a regular old tanker.  It is one of the 10 that the US military operate under its Tanker Security Program.  This will put US refueling operations for the US Navy in jeopardy. At the time the ship was anchored waiting to offload 220k barrels of Aviation Gas off the coast of the UK.  The ship SOLONG is a 8K Ton Freighter packed with sodium cyanide that breached the hull of the Stena setting both ships on fire.  They were both abandoned by crew.  One crew member of Solong is missing and its captain has been charged with manslaughter.  The captain is a Russian National. Reports that the Solong was traveling at 16 knots at full speed into the anchored Stena Immaculate. Reports from a crew member that the Solong was at full throttle at the time and pushed the Stena 400 meters after impact.

Time for a peaceable revolution?

“If a thousand men were not to pay their tax bills this year, that would not be a violent and bloody measure, as it would be to pay them, and enable the State to commit violence and shed innocent blood. This is, in fact, the definition of a peaceable revolution, if any such is possible.”  The above quote is from 1849 Henry David Th oreau within his book Civil Disobedience.  He grappled with the governments support of the Mexican American war and the governments support of slavery.  His aunt even offered to pay the tax so he could avoid jail time.  He still refused out of principle as it being paid by another would still defeat the purpose of the protest. As of this morning the President Trump has threatened all citizens rights to peacefully protest by attempting to punish funding to colleges and students at those colleges.  The threat from the president was sent early morning via his Truth Social platform.  This is a direct attack on 1st amendment rights on...

El Salvadors offers to imprison US citizens

On February 5th the President of El Salvador Bukele has offered to house US Citizens within the prison system for a fee.  The Secretary of State Marco Rubio has been noncommittal in going along with this scheme.  Feigning checks about the legality of doing such a thing. This would be a pretty cut and dry 8th Amendment violation against cruel and unusual punishment by the Trump administration.  So yeah pretty fucking unconstitutional

Revocation of the 14th Amendment Via Executive Order 14156

Only hours after failing to place his hand on the Bible for his swearing-in, Trump has pushed forward an attempt to rewrite the Constitution with his own interpretation. This is a direct attempt to change the 14th Amendment without congressional approval. The order attempts to reinterpret the language of the amendment, effectively altering its meaning without the formal process of amendment. (Image credit: Walt Handelsman | Copyright 2018 Tribune Content Agency) “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside .” The phrase in question is “subject to the jurisdiction thereof.” Historically, this part of the amendment has been interpreted to exclude children of foreign diplomats born in the United States, as they are considered under the jurisdiction of their parents’ home country and thus have diplomatic immunity. The Decision in, United States v. Wong Kim Ark (1898), f...

A Wagner Mercenary Illegally Crossed the Boarder with $6.9K in cash and a Drone and 2 Passports.

January 4th a Former Wagner Mercenary Group member illegally crossed the boarder in Roma, TX.  Timur Praliev, 31, was detained by U.S. Border Patrol agents and claimed to be from Kazakhstan.  They carried with them $4,000 USD and 60,000 Pesos along with 2 Passports Russian/Kazakhstan along with a drone in his backpack.  They admitted to being a Former Member of the Wagner Group. January 7th he was Sentenced to time served but Remanded to Federal Custody due to Concerns for the Safety of the community.   Timur is Remain in US custody while the nature of his visit is determined. This incident will likely be the justification for an Executive Order for initiating mass deportations once Trump has taken office.  We should not let fear dictate removal of any citizens rights.
