caitlin always seems to have a way with words allied with fine perceptions of the world around her as she describes things she comes across, and this one about a tweet sums up lots of things about 'our' governments enforcement division;
US Strategic Command (or “Stratcom” if you’re trying to make a nuclear-capable arm of the US Defense Department sound cool) has issued an apology for a poorly received New Year’s Eve tweet which has since been deleted.
“#TimesSquare tradition rings in the #NewYear by dropping the big ball…if ever needed, we are #ready to drop something much, much bigger,” the offending tweet read, with an attached video featuring B-2 stealth bombers flying all stealth bombery and causing gigantic explosions with bunker buster bombs while words like “STEALTH”, “READY”, and “LETHAL” flashed across the screen. The tweet concluded with the ostensibly unironic hashtag “#PeaceIsOurProfession”.
“Our previous NYE tweet was in poor taste & does not reflect our values,” Strategic Command tweeted. “We apologize. We are dedicated to the security of America & allies.”........https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2019/01/01/us-military-apologizes-for-posting-uncomfortably-honest-tweet/

you might wonder, as i do, at the need for some of these federal agencies to be equipped as though they are an army when all they're supposed to do is work with 'consumers' who aren't given the same level of equipment or rights;
Democrats have threatened to attack the rights of law-abiding Americans that are protected under the Second Amendment in 2019. A Republican President has already unconstitutionally banned bump stocks and supports the violation of the Second, Fourth and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution, as well as his duty and the boundaries of congressional legislation by way of Red Flag laws. All of this is against the American citizenry. However, the federal government has had absolutely no problem in creating an army of unconstitutional agencies who will one day be used against the populace and the latest report out of the US Government Accountability Office reveals that the feds have spent over $1.5 billion in the past 7 years to arm all sorts of federal agencies.
According to the December report titled , there are approximately 120,000 federal law enforcement officers (FLEO), who are in non-military agencies who carry firearms. Among the agencies these FLEOs are in include the Department of Homeland Security, which is what the feds are supposed to be anyway, and the Department of Justice. However, the arming of agents goes way beyond DHS and the DOJ.
Agencies such as the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), US Department of Agriculture, US Department of the Interior, US Department of the Treasury, US Department of Veterans Administration, and the Social Security Administration are also well armed..........https://freedomoutpost.com/gao-report-feds-spent-over-1-5-billion-to-arm-itself-in-the-past-7-years-seeks-to-infringe-on-you-arming-yourself/

evidently a strong swimmer who opposed gmo agendas was found drowned in a pool just before she was to deliver a large petition to the federalies and she joins a long list of others who also went bad and dead by opposing the gorgon;
An activist who opposed genetically engineered mosquitoes has been found dead in the swimming pool of a Washington D.C. hotel, just hours before she was due to submit a petition with over 200,000 signatures to the EPA.
Derrick Broze of Activist Post has investigated the story and spoken to a close friend of the victim, whose name is Mila de Mier from Key West, Florida (see below).
The mysterious death has also been covered by WJLA, which reports:
The D.C. Fire Department says the reported incident happened at the Cambria Hotel & Suites Washington, D.C. Convention Center on 899 O Street, NW. They say they were called to the scene at around 9:35 a.m. Medical crews say they attempted to treat the victim but later pronounced her dead.
Her death, of course, reminds informed observers of all the death threats that other anti-GMO activists have been subjected to over the years, thanks to the “black ops” biotech industry running intimidation campaigns, reputation smear campaigns and political bribery campaigns to grease the palms of politicians. If you weren’t aware that people who oppose the biotech giants or vaccine industry are being routinely assassinated across America, you’re not up to speed on what’s really happening............https://www.newstarget.com/2018-04-13-anti-gmo-activist-found-dead-in-hotel-pool-hours-before-planned-delivery-of-200000-petition-signatures-to-the-epa.html

here you can discover how the rule of law is working out for regular wage earners when confronted with legal assaults and evidence isn't even considered;
Wichita, KS – In December of 2017, police responded to a prank call, also known as a “swatting,” at the home of Andrew Finch. When the entirely innocent and unarmed father answered the door during the raid, Officer Justin Rapp was recorded on video killing him in cold blood. After the coverage died down in the press, and as TFTP accurately predicted in
January, the Wichita District Attorney quietly announced that there will be no charges. Now, we are learning that this decision was made in spite of the fact that the DA reportedly never even interviewed Rapp.
“It’s one year later and the leadership of Wichita and the WPD have
failed to take any responsibility for the unjustified, unconstitutional
and tragic death of Andy Finch,” Attorney Andrew Stroth wrote in a
statement. “Two young children no longer have their father because of a
pattern, practice and history of excessive force utilized by the Wichita
Police and the unreasonable actions of Officer Justin Rapp.”
According to Kansascity.com, in April, District Attorney Marc Bennett said he had to make a determination based on Kansas law and law handed down by the Supreme Court, which says that when determining if an officer acted reasonably, evidence has to be reviewed based on what the officer knew at the time of the shooting, not 20/20 hindsight, he said.
The DA’s office also stated that they kept the officer’s name a secret because he will not be charged. However, it would later be learned that the officer who killed this unarmed father of two was Jason Rapp.........https://thefreethoughtproject.com/report-da-never-interviewed-cop-before-justifying-murder-of-innocent-dad-in-raid-on-wrong-home/

should you have any interest in what israel does to us and the world, the following recap aught to school you on their methods and results;
Looking back on this year, it is difficult to choose
one moment, one tragedy, or one political decision that stands out
among the rest. Palestinians witnessed a tumultuous year in 2018, as
they saw hundreds killed from the West Bank to Gaza, their rights slowly
stripped away inside Israel, and the heart of Palestinian identity, Jerusalem, pushed further out of reach.
We have seen the Israeli occupation expand its reach through its growing settlement enterprise, increasing home demolitions,
and extrajudicial killings of unarmed protesters, all with the full
backing of the United States and relatively no accountability from the
international community.
2018 marked 25 years since the Oslo Accords
were signed, but a fair and just peace agreement for the Palestinians
remains far out of reach — the dream of an independent Palestinian state
even further.
The Palestinian Authority (PA), which was supposed
to be a temporary government according to the accords, has developed
into a despotic regime, focused more on quashing dissent and policing
free speech than achieving liberation and statehood.
2018 also marked 70 years since the Nakba, the tragedy that has shaped the Palestinian issue for generations.
But as evidenced by the ongoing fight for the rights
of refugees in Gaza’s Great March of Return, the fight against
expulsion in places Silwan
and Khan al-Ahmar, and the fight for equal rights as citizens in
Israel, the Nakba, or “catastrophe”, of the Palestinian people did not
end in 1948........https://mondoweiss.net/2018/12/dispatch-palestine-review/
