White House fear of demos

"How do you make the power elite frightened of you?

"Nixon was frightened of movements. And there’s a scene - 1971, huge antiwar demonstration surrounding the White House...

"& Nixon has put empty buses, end-to-end as a kind of barricade...

"& he’s standing at the window wringing his hands, going, Henry, they’re going to break through the barricades and get us.

"& that’s just where you want people in power to be.”

― Chris Hedges

Ukraine Has an Easy Button. Will the U.S. Unlock It?

Why does the #WhiteHouse veto the use of American arms on Russian territory?

Which is the history of this policy, how Russia has strategically responded to it, and the possibility that the policy may soon change.

"Israeli officials seized equipment from the and shut down its long-standing feed of northern on Tuesday...

The move was quickly denounced by free advocates, who portrayed it as an escalation of an effort to restrict coverage of the Israel-Hamas war...

In a statement, the Associated Press firmly condemned the government’s move...

The also called the action “concerning.”"

@ZhiZhu When the Whitehouse says "concerning", it simply means that they'll do bugger all about it, other than use a word to con the gullible.

This is a sweet story that I never heard. Jimmy Carter hosted a jazz celebration at the White House. He requested that they play “Salt Peanuts.” Dizzy Gillespie agreed on the condition that Carter sing it. He did.

I agree with the #whitehouse on this one.

Hamas would need to kill at least 25000 more innocent Israeli women and children for there to be equivalence between what it did and what Israel did; oh, and they would need to grow Tel Aviv by about 4 times its natural population, and then starve it and thirst it for six months also. Also while eliminating all its civilian infrastructure.

Someone really needs to kick 's head off his narrow shoulders. This guy is a smarmy, dishonest prick whose entire job seems to be instigating irrelevant moments in the press room. This is a perfect example...

#Mobilisation in #Russia and the need to manufacture weapons is creating workforce shortages in the #oil industry, Bloomberg reports.

The number of working age people in Russia has been declining for almost two decades - #Covid and the #RussianFullScaleWar have worsened the problem.

Disgust Greets #WhiteHouse Correspondents' Dinner as Israel Kills #Journalists in Gaza
"To sit and schmooze with the president while he sends billions of dollars in weapons to Israel to kill their colleagues in #Gaza is unethical and immoral."

On Saturday night, U.S. reporters and government officials—including President Joe #Biden—will gather at the Washington Hilton Hotel for the annual White House #Correspondents' Dinner, a glitzy, humor-filled affair that has faced mounting #boycott calls
