Swamp Rats, Slimy Liz Cheney Records Conniving Kevin McCarthy During R.A.T. Coordination Call
It was obvious when the J6 committee began using their unilateral subpoena authority to demand phone records, text messages, documents and emails, that part of their plan was to leak/release internal GOP discussions amid politicians that would anger the MAGA voters ahead of the 2022 midterm elections.

Media Need To Treat Every Day As Earth Day If We Want A Livable Planet
On Earth Day, no doubt most major media will pay lip service to the extreme dangers of climate change. But what happens the next day? A major Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report, released at the end of February, could scarcely have been more clear—or more dire: Any further delay in concerted anticipatory global action on adaptation and mitigation will miss a brief and rapidly closing window of opportunity to secure a livable and sustainable future for all.

Analysis: What does it mean for Chile to be an ecological state?
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL - According to experts, the most important consequence of the definition of an "ecological state" would be the duty of the state to establish a balance between human activities and nature through all its institutions, not only those that deal with environmental issues. However, the evaluation of this issue causes debate […] The post Analysis: What does it mean for Chile to be an ecological state? appeared first on The Rio Times. read more
Europa’s Double Ridges: Implications for a Habitable Ocean
[image: Europa’s Double Ridges: Implications for a Habitable Ocean] I’m always interested in studies that cut across conventional boundaries, capturing new insights by applying data from what had appeared, at first glance, to be unrelated disciplines. Thus the news that the ice shell of Europa may turn out to be far more dynamic than we have previously considered is interesting in itself, given the implications for life in the Jovian moon’s ocean, but also compelling because it draws on a study that focused on Greenland and originally sought to measure climate change. The backgroun... read more

These Dark Times Are Also Filled with Light
In early March, Argentina’s government came to an Agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on a $45 billion deal to shore up its shaky finances. This deal was motivated by the government’s need to pay a $2.8 billion instalment on a $57 billion IMF stand-by loan taken out under former President Mauricio Macri in 2018. This loan – the largest loan in the financial institution’s history – sharpened divides in Argentinian society. The following year, the Macri administration was ousted in elections by the center-left Frente de Todos coalition which campaigned on a sharp an... read more
Notes From Wartorn Ethiopia, Part II
Even the Embassy of Bangladesh is building new floors right across the street from my alleyway hotel. Mercedes drive in and out, and I wonder how such a poor country affords them, but Mercedes seem to be the ambassadorial vehicle of choice. Governments like Bangladesh, which don’t maintain embassies in many other countries, no doubt maintain them here because Addis Ababa is the seat of the African Union, and with the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam coming online, Ethiopia is emerging as a regional powerhouse, despite how much that dismays US policymakers.

How Obama-Biden Team Empowered Terrorists In Syria
The Obama-Biden team's record in Syria resonates today as many of its members handle the unfolding crisis in Ukraine. As in Syria, the U.S. is flooding a chaotic war zone with weapons in a dangerous proxy conflict against Russia, raising the threat of military confrontation between the world's top nuclear powers. "I deeply worry that what’s going to happen next is that we will see Ukraine turn into Syria," Democratic Senator Chris Coons told CBS News on April 17.

Israeli Authorities Prod Extremist Militias Into Seeking ‘Vigilante Justice’
Be’er Sheva / Lydd, Occupied Palestine - In cities across 1948-occupied Palestine (modern-day Israel), Israelis are taking up arms to defend against so-called Palestinian terror. A wave of Palestinian-initiated attacks against Israelis occurred just before the Muslim holy month of Ramadan in March, prompting Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett to call on civilians to arm themselves. “Whoever has a gun license, this is the time to carry a gun,” Bennett said in a video statement following the violence. His request was met, as Israeli settlers in the Naqab, Lydd, and the Occupied... read more
Biden Has The Authority To Help Demilitarize Police But Isn’t Using It
Even if Biden’s record wasn’t what it was, he’d still be responsible for the more than $1.72 billion in combat gear that’s gone out through the 1033 program since its inception. This is because as president, Biden could easily recall all this military equipment by issuing an executive order. The 1033 program isn’t a sales program—it only authorizes the Pentagon to loan military gear to police. The militarized equipment transferred through 1033 remains Pentagon property regardless of how long the matériel has been in police custody. Put simply, Biden is free to order the Pentagon t... read more

Witness To A Social Crime: The Reality Of US Immigrant Child Detention
For a brief series of weeks in 2018, the treatment of immigrant children in the US was an item in the national and international news. Hundreds of millions in the US and internationally were shocked and horrified over the treatment of immigrant children, many of whom had been taken from their families at the border. This was not the product of actions by local jailers or errant border guards, it was the policy of the federal government. None of this can be spoken of today. The media and the Democratic politicians, including those who traveled to the border and feigned tears, ignor... read more

While the jury is still out there on this, evidence on how state’s local culture constructs and deconstructs religious identity allows drawing conclusions with some definitiveness.
