Trump Supporters: DON'T DO THIS! A Texas woman was arrested for threatening to kill the federal judge overseeing the criminal case against former President Donald Trump.

Abigail Jo Shry of Alvin, Texas, called the federal courthouse in Washington and left the threatening message — using a racist term for U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan — on Aug. 5, court records show. Investigators traced her phone number and she later admitted to making the threatening call, according to a criminal complaint.

Headline: Purported names, photos and addresses of Fulton County grand jurors circulate on far-right internet...

https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/17/politics/fulton-county-grand-jurors-far-right-internet/index.html

When someone is indicted in Fulton County, the indictment includes the names of all the grand jurors who served on the 26-member panel that handed up the charges. However, the indictment, which is a public record that’s available on the court website, does not include their addresses or any other personally identifiable information.
Also, on some forums, users are posting multiple social media profiles of different people who have the same name as some of the grand jurors.
This creates an additional layer of risk, Daniel J. Jones, the president of Advance Democracy, a non-profit organization that conducts public-interest investigations and monitors extremism online, told CNN. The posting of social media profiles and home addresses of people who happen to share the name of a grand juror increases their risk of harassment and other forms of harm, he said.

This letter speaks for me, so I'm adding my name. Thanks, John Wambrodt. (It's a little long, folks, but worth the read. I think you'll feel the same.)

Dear Facebook Friends,

This is where I stand.

I make no apologies to anyone for this. I know some are tired of political postings and rants. But apart from non-committal posts of recipes, meals, flowers, dogs, seashells, balloons, pictures, cats, drama, humor, our own art, and even beautiful expressions of spiritual beliefs, FB is (until it gets taken away) a vehicle to express our outrage at how far our country has currently fallen on the humanitarian scale.

To me, FB is a useful vehicle for my passion and activism. The fevered ego currently occupying our White House, his power hungry cronies taking positions of authority in his Cabinet and administration, and the majority of Republicans & Democrats in Congress are a real and active threat to me, my way of life, and all the people I love. And unless you are worth billions of dollars, they are a threat to you and your life, too. So, I will continue to be a part of the solution by drawing attention to what's happening and encouraging us to all resist. If you can, join in. If you disagree, fine. But, I refuse to "play nice" in the face of what these people are doing. Our country's well-being demands that we stand up and resist.

Some people are saying that we should "work together" with Trump because he won the election and he is "everyone's president." This is my response:

I will not forget how badly he and so many others treated President Obama for EIGHT YEARS...BUT, apart from that, this is why I cannot support this president's agenda:

• I will not "work together" to privatize Medicare, cut Social Security and Medicaid. EVER!!! We have paid every single dime into Social Security. It is OURS, not Congress's to spend to court rich donors from Wall Street.

• I will not "work together" to remove civil rights from ANYONE--like the evisceration of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 OR the continued partisan gerrymandering by the GOP.

• I will not "work together" to destroy marriage equality and make it a states right to deny love between two people. Your "religious liberty" does not give you some right to take away my rights. Your faith, no matter how deeply felt, doesn't make our civil laws.

• I will not "work together" to deny health care to people who need it.

• I will not "work together" to increase the profits of the insurance companies. (Notice they rarely, if ever, go bankrupt).

• I will not "work together" to erase or redefine my trans brothers and sisters. I will not subject them to embarrassment in bathrooms.

• I will not "work together" to deny medical coverage to people on the basis of an alleged or actual "pre-existing condition." (At some point, we will ALL have a pre-existing condition if we live long enough).

• I will not "work together" to build a wall. (Walls have never worked, and eventually they all fall.)

• I will not "work together" to persecute Muslims.

• I will not "work together" to shut out refugees from countries where we destabilized their governments, so that we could have something more agreeable to our oligarchy.

• I will not "work together" to lower taxes on the 1%.

• I will not "work together" to increase taxes on the middle class and poor.

• I will not "work together" to help the president to line his pockets and those of his cronies.

• I will not "work together" to weaken and demolish environmental protections.

.

• I will not "work together" to sell American lands, especially National Parks, to companies which then despoil those lands.

• I will not "work together" to enable the killing in any way of whole species of animals just because they are predators, or inconvenient for a few, or because some people want to get their thrills killing them.

• I will not "work together" to waste trillions more on our military when we already have the strongest in the world.

• I will not "work together" to alienate countries that have been our allies for as long as I have been alive, and longer.

• I will not "work together" to slash education funding.

• I will not "work together" to take basic assistance from people who are at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder.

• I will not "work together" to allow torture and "black op" prison sites.

• I will not "work together" and deny that there is a color imbalance in our criminal justice system. We need to address it.

• I will not "work together" with a mentality that twists peaceful protests into a lack of patriotism. Kneeling is NOT disrespectful to the flag.

• I will not "work together" with a leader who bullies others.

• I will not "work together" to "take their oil."

• I will not "work together" to get rid of common sense regulations on guns.

• I will not "work together" to eliminate the minimum wage.

• I will not "work together" to support so-called "Right To Work" laws, or undermine, weaken or destroy unions in any way.

• I will not "work together" to suppress scientific research, be it on climate change, fracking, or any other issue where a majority of scientists agree that #45 and his supporters are wrong on the facts.

• I will not "work together" to increase the number of nations that have nuclear weapons.

• I will not "work together" to put even more "big money" into politics.

• I will not "work together" to violate the Geneva Convention.

• I will not "work together" to give the Ku Klux Klan, the Nazi Party and white supremacists a seat at the table, or to normalize their hatred.

• I will not "work together" if it means ignoring the fact that a foreign country interfered with our elections while this administration has done nothing about it.

• I will not "work together" or honor a man who is a sexual predator.

• I will not "work together" with politicians who want to criminalize abortion... or regulate it out of existence.

• I will not "work together" to engage in voter suppression.

• I will not "work together" to normalize tyranny.

• I will not “work together” to eliminate or reduce ethical oversite at any level of government.

• I will not "work together" with anyone who is, or admires, tyrants and dictators who murder their opposition.

• I will not "work together" with #45 because I will not allow one man to feed upon the fears of the populace, blaming minorities for their condition or their inability to thrive.

• I will not "work together" to put children in cages.

• I will not "work together" to invite or condone violence against journalists. Or ignore the murder of one!!!

• I will not "work together" to dismiss and demoralize the intelligence community upon whom our national security relies.

This is the line, and I am drawing it. I will stand for honesty, love, respect for all living beings, and for the compassion and humanity that is the center of Life itself.

• I will use my voice and my hands, to reach out to the uninformed, and to anyone who will LISTEN for what's really so dangerous about #45, his friends and the Big Lie they spin to the world: to wit, that "winning,""being great again,""rich,""beautiful," or even "white" is anything more than nothing when others are sacrificed to glorify its existence.

PS: If you agree, you can copy and paste this post on to your own FB page, signing your name below those you see listed. This results in larger numbers of people seeing a post.

Consider this an opportunity to make a declaration of commitment, in becoming part of The Resistance."

Yours in solidarity.

SOLAR, WIND, HYDRO & BIOMASS are Cheaper than Nuclear Power Plants... That's Why We Aren't Building any Nukes. That and the Radioactive Waste That has to be Stored and Guarded for 10,000 Years... To Prevent Terrorists from Building a Dirty Bomb...

The Danger of A Crazy Man Simply Placing a Traditional Bomb Under A Cask of Atomic Waste is IMMENSE... Sometime During the 10,000 Years That Nuclear Waste is Actively Radioactive, It's Almost Certain that a "WhackJob" will Blow It Up!

Unemployed Physics Graduates Can't Get a Job in the Nuclear Power Industry so they Write Magazine Articles all about how wonderful Nukes Are... and Make Pro Nuke Videos...

In 1976 PG&E Said NO NUKES! and Shut it Down... The Humboldt Bay Power Plant, Unit 3 was a 63 MWe boiling water reactor, owned by Pacific Gas and Electric Company that operated from August 1963 to July 1976 just south of Eureka, California... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humboldt_Bay_Nuclear_Power_Plant

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKJ_73_8kzo

Power - No Nukes concert

 Remember: The Only Good Nuke is a Decommissioned Nuke... Shut 'em DOWN!

What is the main reason why fewer nuclear power plants are being built today compared to 40 years ago? Nuclear power plants have become too expensive to generate electricity at a reasonable cost. Which of the following accurately describes the use of fossil fuels for energy?

https://web.archive.org/web/20110825210125/

Humboldt Nuke Faces Dismantling By Jim Adams Twenty-two years after shutdown, PG&E’s Humboldt Bay Nuclear Power Plant may become the first commercial reactor to be dismantled or decommissioned in the US. A major project got underway in September as the 250 ft. tall concrete vent stack began to be demolished. The utility has also announced its intent to remove 390 spent (irradiated) fuel rods from the pool at the plant, and place them in on-site steel containers called dry casks. For more than a decade, Redwood Alliance has urged PG&E to take this action. This will keep our community safe and allow complete dismantling to take place. Four miles south of Eureka and adjacent to Humboldt Bay, the Humboldt nuke sits on top of and close to major earthquake faults. The Alliance has worked since 1978 to make sure that the nuclear plant, one of the oldest and dirtiest in the country, would never reopen and will be properly dismantled.

The Nyonoksa radiation accident occurred on 8 August 2019 near Nyonoksa, Russian Federation. Five military and civilian specialists were killed and three (or six, depending on the source) were injured.[1][2][3] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyonoksa_radiation_accident

American intelligence officials are racing to understand a mysterious explosion that released radiation off the coast of northern Russia last week, apparently during the test of a new type of nuclear-propelled cruise missile hailed by President Vladimir V. Putin as the centerpiece of Moscow’s arms race with the United States.

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-energy-nuclearpower/nuclear-energy-too-slow-too-expensive-to-save-climate-report-idUSKBN1W909J

Nuclear power is losing ground to renewables in terms of both cost and capacity as its reactors are increasingly seen as less economical and slower to reverse carbon emissions, an industry report said.

https://www.vox.com/2014/8/1/5958943/nuclear-power-rise-fall-six-charts

Nuclear power is slowly going out of style. Back in 1996, atomic energy supplied 17.6 percent of the world's electricity. Today that's down to just 10.8 percent — and it could drop even further in the years ahead.

https://eu.boell.org/en/2021/04/26/7-reasons-why-nuclear-energy-not-answer-solve-climate-change

The 7 reasons why nuclear energy is not the answer to solve climate change.

Analysis: New nuclear power costs about 5 times more than onshore wind power per kWh. Nuclear takes 5 to 17 years longer between planning and operation and produces on average 23 times the emissions per unit electricity generated. In addition, it creates risk and cost associated with weapons proliferation, meltdown, mining lung cancer, and waste risks. Clean, renewables avoid all such risks.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Susana_Field_Laboratory

The hot lab suffered a number of fires involving radioactive materials. For example, in 1957, a fire in the hot cell "got out of control and ... massive contamination" resulted.[23]

At least four of the ten nuclear reactors suffered accidents: 1) The AE6 reactor experienced a release of fission gases in March 1959.[24] 2) In July 1959, the SRE experienced a power excursion and partial meltdown that released 28 Curies of radioactive noble gasses. The release resulted in the maximum off-site exposure of 0.099 millirem and an exposure of 0.018 millirem for the nearest residential building which is well within current limits today.[25] 3) In 1964, the SNAP8ER experienced damage to 80% of its fuel. 4) In 1969 the SNAP8DR experienced similar damage to one-third of its fuel.[24]

A radioactive fire occurred in 1971, involving combustible primary reactor coolant (NaK) contaminated with mixed fission products.[26][27]

The reactors located on the grounds of SSFL were considered experimental, and therefore had no containment structures. Reactors and highly radioactive components were housed without the large concrete domes that surround modern power reactors.[citation needed]

and then a Guy of FaceBorg Said:  

I recommend this page, 

https://www.facebook.com/timetogonuclear/posts/4855025154545048

it debunks the lies about "radiation deaths" supposedly caused by nuclear power. Give it an honest try. I used to be against nuclear power, 3 Mile Island was closed, and yet there was no radiation or damage outside the plant itself. Even Fukishima radiation was down to backround levels within a few hundred yards of the plant. Wildlife is everywhere around Chernobyl, with no observed radiation problems. This site will respond to your arguments against nuclear power with reason and demonstrable statisitics to back their argument that it is safe. I support Solar and Wind power, but it is nowhere near being able to completely replace fossil fuels, just ask Germany, with their new gas pipeline coming from Russia.

Why did the Nuclear Waste policy act fail? 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_Waste_Policy_Act

The Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 is a United States federal law which established a comprehensive national program for the safe, permanent disposal of highly radioactive wastes. 

The Nuclear Waste Fund previously received $750 million in fee revenues each year and had an unspent balance of $44.5 billion as of the end of FY2017.^[8] However (according to the Draft Report by the Blue Ribbon Commission on America's Nuclear Future), actions by both Congress and the Executive Branch have made the money in the fund effectively inaccessible to serving its original purpose. The commission made several recommendations on how this situation may be corrected.^[9]

In December 1987, Congress amended the Nuclear Waste Policy Act to designate Yucca Mountain, Nevada, as the only site to be characterized as a permanent repository for all of the nation's nuclear waste.^[11] The plan was added to the fiscal 1988 budget reconciliation bill signed on December 22, 1987.

On March 5, 2009, Energy Secretary Steven Chu told a Senate hearing the Yucca Mountain site is no longer viewed as an option for storing reactor waste.^[19] 

https://cen.acs.org/environment/pollution/nuclear-waste-pilesscientists-seek-best/98/i12

Regardless of whether you are for or against nuclear power, and no matter what you think of nuclear weapons, the radioactive waste is already here, and we have to deal with it.”

That’s Gerald S. Frankel’s matter-of-fact take on the thousands of metric tons of used solid fuel from nuclear power plants worldwide and the millions of liters of radioactive liquid waste from weapons production that sit in temporary storage containers in the US. While these waste materials, which can be harmful to human health and the environment, wait for a more permanent home, their containers age. In some cases, the aging containers have already begun leaking their toxic contents.

“It’s a societal problem that has been handed down to us from our parents’ generation,” says Frankel, who is a materials scientist at the Ohio State University. “And we are—more or less—handing it to our children.”

IN BRIEF:

More than a quarter million metric tons of highly radioactive waste sits in storage near nuclear power plants and weapons production facilities worldwide, with over 90,000 metric tons in the US alone. Emitting radiation that can pose serious risks to human health and the environment, the waste, much of it decades old, awaits permanent disposal in geological repositories, but none are operational. With nowhere to go for now, the hazardous materials and their containers continue to age. That unsustainable situation is driving corrosion experts to better understand how steel, glass, and other materials proposed for long-term nuclear waste storage containers might degrade. Read on to learn how these researchers’ findings might help protect people and the environment from waste leakages.

*JUST JOKING* A Step by Step Guide to the Violet Overgrow of the Ruling Class - A Novel by Gregory Vanderlaan *JUST JOKING*

Step #1: 

Boycott Everything Until Prices Come Down. 

Corporations owned by the 1% keep on raising prices and collecting windfall profits. They will keep on doing that until people quit buying. If they could, they would charge $100.00 for a Quart of Milk... 

Step #2: Sneak Marijuana Cookies onto the Buffet Tables of the Hotels near Capitol Hill in Washington DC. If the "Suits" that Run the Government had a Cannabis Trip... maybe they would think twice about doing evil for a living. Place some Cannabis Edibles in the Senate Dining Room also... At the very least they would change the CrazyLaws® about Marijuana... 

Step #3: Cut the Pentagon Budget in Half. This will really anger the Ruling Class as They Profit Greatly from Corporate Welfare. Remember: Since 1945 the US Military has Never Defended the USA... Not Even Once... So all that money being spent at the Pentagon is Just a Way to Transfer Wealth from the Taxpayers to the Owners of Defense Corporations...  The same Owners Finance the Campaigns of the Senators and Congressmen that Write the Bills that Fund the Pentagon... So the Money Travels in a Tight Circle... and YOU GET NOTHING... 

Step #4: Stop Funding Fossil Fuel Corporations. "U.S. taxpayers spend tens of billions of dollars a year subsidizing new fossil fuel exploration, production, and consumption, which directly affects how much oil, natural gas, and coal gets produced—and how much clean energy doesn’t." https://generation180.org/the-absurd-truth-about-fossil-fuel-subsidies/
