Reporters arrested for doing their jobs by Donald Trump

Alexander Rubenstein, RT America

Even Engel, Vocatic

Jack Keller, Story of America

Aaron Cantu, Truth-Out

Matt Hopard, Independent Journalist

Shay Horse, Photojournalist

These are the 6 people arrested by the Trump Administration and charged with felonies for doing their job and covering unrest at the inauguration.  Their press credentials are being ignored and the basic protections of Freedom of the Press are, for the time being, suspended.

Look at these faces.  They are but the first unless we stop it.

mmmm accusations with no sources  or explanations! YUMMY!

[infamousddd-blog]

Right I hate when people are like this happened! But never provide sources.

[reasonandempathy]

@pro-kink-noodle

I didn’t provide sources because it’s literally international headlines.

Guardian (UK)

US News RedState HuffingtonPost  FOX News(USA)

Russia Today (Russia)

Associated Press (Assorted)

Both Conservatives and Liberals are hitting him on this.  Fucking FOX News even.

Literally even just googling any of the names would have told you this.  Don’t act as if the claims were unverifiable.

The Women's March went smoothly because of white supremacy.

Let me be clear on something, as a person who attended the DC March. There were no arrests and no “riots” because this march was organized and largely attended by white women. Yes, there were people of many races and cultures in attendance, but it was a largely white event. I was there. I saw it.

My white ass was walking down a street–that had to be blocked off–screaming “Black lives matter!” and nothing happened.

And you know what? There was little police presence. Honestly. I was warned to wear a bandana for tear gas and to bring clear bags in case the huge militarized police presence wanted to take my bag. I was told to not be frightened by the tanks and to know that I was practicing my right to peaceful protest.

But y'all, there were no tanks. I saw one military vehicle and maybe four cop cars. I saw more police and military in the metro on the way in.

And there was a reason for that. Had these marches been organized and largely attended by women of color, this would have gone so differently. There were people climbing on cars and on porta-johns and in the trees. Offenses that have earned tear gas and tasing and vitriol from law enforcement at MUCH SMALLER and manageable events. Don’t look at this as “Well they were polite for once.” I’m sorry to tell you this, but that is a racist statement.

We acted the same as any number of peaceful protests that saw police brutality. Just the same. But we were shielded by our white-ness and that is important to recognize. I was privileged to be allowed to SHUT DOWN the entirety of Capital Hill because my fellow marchers and I were white. Recognize this, even if it makes you uncomfortable. You did a good thing, but realize *why* you were able to do it.

Bad River Chippewa want Enbridge Pipeline removed

The Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa nation is denying renewal of the Enbridge Line 5 crude oil pipeline easement through its reservation in Northern Wisconsin.

On the evening of January 4 the Bad River tribal council passed a formal resolution not only denying the Canada based Enbridge Energy’s easement for its 64-year-old pipeline but also calling for its decommissioning and removal from all Bad River lands and watershed.

“This is truly a historic moment, as we are the first [Nation] to take action in this manner over a pipeline,” said Sandy Deragon, a member of the Bad River nation.

Indeed, as noted in an article in Earth First Journal, most public and tribal opposition to pipelines has concentrated on halting new construction.

The Nation’s decision caught Enbridge leaders unawares.

“We are surprised to learn of the Bad River Band’s decision not to renew individual easements within the reservation for Line 5 after negotiating in good faith for the past several years,” Enbridge leaders said in a statement.

Bad River council member Dylan Jennings said the Nation’s decision was not related to opposition to the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) near the Standing Rock Reservation in North Dakota.

“We stand in solidarity with our Standing Rock relatives, but this decision has been long overdue for our community,” Jennings said. “Our people have been concerned about the safety of this pipeline for quite some time.”

Environmental and citizen groups in the region have been sharing concerns over the aging pipeline with the tribe for years, according to reports.

During the past few months as public awareness of potential problems with the pipeline grew, community members expressed concern about the lack of transparency of ongoing negotiations between Enbridge and Bad River tribal agencies, according to Deragon.

At last, the community called for a public pipeline meeting at which Bad River Tribal Chairman Robert Blanchard called for the January 4 resolution to deny the easement.

i love her

[twodotsknowwhy]

Remember, Debbie Reynolds was so much more than just Carrie’s mom. She was a beautiful, amazing, wickedly funny woman in her own right. She loved her daughter and she made her daughter who she was, but it is a disservice to her memory to shrink her down to just being Carrie’s mom.

[twodotsknowwhy]

Also, because it needs to be said, Debbie was a huge supporter of the mentally ill. She helped found The Thalians, a mental health charity in 1955 and served as chairwoman for the organization for fifty-six years. She was an amazing woman and will be missed.
