Midnight Meme Of The Day!
*by Noah* *An Update Of Yesterday's Midnight Meme Post:* In lieu of my usual Sunday Thoughts, I have decided to devote today's Midnight Meme Of The Day! to another form of Republican religion; FOX "News" and their primetime Jesus. On Wednesday, some sponsors, emphasis some, began withdrawing their corporate sponsorship of FOX's Tucker Tiki Torch Carlson program. Among those were Papa John's, SmilDirectClub, T-Mobile, and ABC's traditionally far-right homophobic Disney. It's horrific enough that any corporation had ever supported Carlson's racist diatribes but Disney's press comme... more »

One week on
Last weekend - when bikes were being flung at police horses, far-left mobs were injuring dozens of police, the statue of the war leader who stood up to and defeated Nazism was being defaced, and a rioter tried to set the country's flag alight on the Cenotaph - the BBC chose to under-report the violence of BLM/far-left protests and called them "largely peaceful". Predictably, *this* is the main headline on the BBC News website this weekend: Note the unflinching use of the word "violent" and the highlighting of a piece of bad behaviour by a protestor - and the unclipped images of a... more »
George Floyd Protests: How DC's Mayor Used Graffiti to Protect Public Space
*Rebekah Modrak* *Society, Americas* Graffiti has been called the “language of the ignored.” When President Donald Trump sent heavily armed federal law enforcement officers and unidentified officers in riot gear into Washington, D.C. during the height of protests recently, Mayor Muriel E. Bowser responded by painting “BLACK LIVES MATTER” directly on the street leading to the White House. While many spoke of it as a daring political act, for artists like me, it was also an act of urban intervention, an artistic act intended to transform an existing structure or institution, that ... more »
Coronavirus: the Psychological Impact of ‘Shielding’ Indoors
*Jo Daniels* *Health, * It isn’t easy to go out after months of shielding. For the last three months, around two million people have “shielded” themselves against the novel coronavirus by staying indoors, on recommendation of the UK government. On May 31, however, the guidelines were updated to enable those who are clinically vulnerable to go outdoors if they wish. But they must remain vigilant and won’t be able to visit their loved ones under new plans to ease restrictions by creating “support bubbles”. It’s not hard to see that spending so long stuck indoors worrying about a ... more »

IMF Bailout of Lebanon Must Serve to Weaken Hezbollah
*Raphael Badani* *Security, Middle East* The country is on the verge of bankruptcy Despite the ongoing danger of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), the people of Lebanon took to the streets in early June to protest the government’s mismanagement of a worsening economic crisis, as unemployment passed 35 percent and the poverty rate hit 45 percent. Some protesters called for the Shia militant group Hezbollah, recognized as a terror organization by dozens of countries including the United Kingdom, to disarm and were in turn met with tear gas and rubber bullets. The country is on ... more »
How High-Tech Surveillance Amplifies Police Bias
*Andrew Guthrie Ferguson* *Security, Americas* Powerful surveillance capabilities have exacerbated rather than reduced bias and abuse in policing, and they pose a growing threat to civil liberties. Video of police in riot gear clashing with unarmed protesters in the wake of the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin has filled social media feeds. Meanwhile, police surveillance of protesters has remained largely out of sight. Local, state and federal law enforcement organizations use an array of surveillance technologies to identify and track proteste... more »

*FOX News:* *'Lamphone' technique allows spies to target victims using lightbulbs for real-time eavesdropping* *Researchers turn lightbulbs into microphones* Forget wiretapping -- researchers have developed a new way for spies to eavesdrop on targets using lightbulbs.
