The Former Guy threatens Death and Destruction if indicted
The Former Guy is upping his threats, upping his call for violence - specifically, he is calling for "death and destruction". I don't think we need to be hesitant to say that this man is a violent fascist anymore. There is no nuance here. He called for the violent overthrow of the duly elected government, and now he is calling for "death and destruction" of law enforcement and the New York DA.

The Christian "Taliban" forces hospitals to stop delivering babies in Idaho
It is no surprise that the half century obsession to end Roe v Wade, and the further obsession to criminalize everything that these fundamentalist Christian obsessives detest, is dramatically harming the health and wellbeing of women in particular and Americans in general. An Idaho hospital, Bonner General Health in rural Sandpoint, Idaho, will stop delivering babies. Because of the extremist fundamentalist laws being passed in Idaho. Result? They lose top doctors.
“Highly respected, talented physicians are leaving,” it said. “Recruiting replacements will be extraordinarily difficult. In addition, the Idaho Legislature continues to introduce and pass bills that criminalize physicians for medical care nationally recognized as the standard of care.”
How can they recruit new doctors? How soon will small regional hospitals close for lack of ability to serve the community?
Gustafson said she fears that Idaho’s maternal death total — which more than doubled from 2019 to 2020, the most recent year for which data is available — will rise with one fewer unit of doctors trained in labor and delivery.
The fundamentalist extremists have taken over the Republican Party and are attacking the freedoms of women, gays, transexuals, and anyone whom they hate. And they seem to hate everyone except white fundamentalist Christian men (and their obedient women). But not all Christians are in their extremist wing of the Party. When will they turn their back on this unrecognizable Republican Party?

Abortion laws threaten women’s lives and health - of course…
The Texas abortion plan damages and endangers the lives of women. I wonder if that isn’t the desire of the cold hearted evangelical Man-is-The-Boss ministers and lawmakers - keep women down and weak.

Unsustainablities
- Massive inequality between the super wealthy and the middle class and poor?
- Fossil fuels and corporate agriculture creating environmental destruction?
- Nuclear weapons in the hands of unreliable, authoritarian regimes?
- Military slaughter weapons in possession of a violent American populace?
- Disinformation and lying propaganda media obliterating the news to create autocratic and corrupt forms of rule?
- Political parties dedicated to the overthrow of democracy?

Hatred and revenge
He repeated the phrase for emphasis: “I am your retribution.”
Bolton said "“It would be, first and foremost, getting back at the people he thinks deserve some kind of punishment for not doing what he tells them to do,” Mr. Bolton said. “And it’s a big group of people.”
