For some motive, the truth that yesterday was Human Rights Day did not have an effect on my intertube till this morning, however I do not suppose it issues that a lot.

And whereas there was a time when this subject could possibly be seen from above a shining metropolis on a hill, it has turn out to be a much more urgent native difficulty in our nation.
Not that we have ever been excellent. This is a reminiscence from 20 years in the past. But nobody is ideal. And we used to strive higher. The (solely factor I can consider) good about Abu Ghraib is that it shocked our conscience. It could have been who we have been, nevertheless it wasn’t who we wished to be.
Let’s get again to the subject.
There is a few excellent news for the world now that Bashar al-Assad has been faraway from energy in Syria. There have been many cartoons about Bashar al-Assad’s sanctuary in Moscow, however most of them have been about open home windows. That mentioned, I feel Putin has sufficient in thoughts for now with out making an excessive amount of of a fuss about his new visitor.
Rather, the caricature belongs to Ali Ferzat, who was overwhelmed and had his arms damaged by Assad’s henchmen for drawing caricatures that weren’t correctly respectful.
But it is throughout, and even Israel needs to be pals with Syria’s new authorities as soon as they’re accomplished bombing the residing shit out of their defenses. As Amnesty International not too long ago famous, the United States has carried out assaults focusing on suspected navy positions linked to ISIS, however Israel has been reluctant to take surgical motion.
Patrick Brower factors out Putin’s defeat, however as different images on the desk present, he nonetheless has many pals and if Assad was essential to him, Putin’s energy I might have contributed extra to upkeep. As it stands, he has one much less factor to fret about, with the ruble collapsing, discontent rising, and the United States simply approving the switch of frozen Russian belongings to the reason for defending Ukraine.
The collapse of the Assad regime has dealt a blow to Iran’s status, and we have to wait and see how it’s resolved. Iran’s repressive authorities has all the time been extra standard within the countryside than in its subtle cities. Draw parallels for your self.
However, Moroccan cartoonist Sanuni Imad (Cartoon Movement) means that daylight is a robust disinfectant, particularly efficient in opposition to vampires, and that the idea doesn’t solely apply to the scenario in Syria. .
There’s no higher time to remind us that you may purchase artwork to help cartoonists’ rights throughout our present fundraiser.
The supply of that purifying daylight just isn’t solely present in different international locations, neither is it endangered solely there. In this morning’s Kandorville newspaper (KFS), Lemont’s phrases are rigorously reselected to replicate the dearth of candor going ahead in our personal information organizations.
Don’t be fooled into pondering that the First Amendment protects reporters and cartoonists. When I used to be subpoenaed for notes from an interview with a suspected assassin, I used to be prepared to face agency, however I do not know if the newspaper homeowners will help me.
You do not should beat somebody in courtroom to destroy them. Unless the case is so disproportionate that the courtroom requires compensation, legal professional’s charges are very helpful for that objective.
And, nicely, meaning it is going to be a shitty recreation. As Chuck Schumer has mentioned, you do not want a climate forecaster to know which means the wind will blow.
Senate Republicans simply put the brakes on the federal protect legislation, which protects reporters’ proper to analyze with out being made authorities workers, and don’t anticipate the invoice to be taken up once more beneath the brand new administration.

Dana Summers — Tribune
In case you missed it, a subway vigilante who held a disorderly homeless man in a chokehold till he died has been acquitted by a jury, a verdict not solely welcomed by conservatives. , as you’ll be able to see, Kelly feels the next: The district legal professional who filed the case ought to be in jail, and Summers appears to suppose he is higher off useless, or a minimum of glad that Bragg’s makes an attempt to implement the legislation have failed. .
The Republican Party continues to marketing campaign with a give attention to legislation and order. Not solely is it nonetheless in opposition to the legislation to kill somebody, however New York City’s homicide price was a difficulty within the latest election, and Dear Leader exaggerated the statistics and ignored the decline in violent deaths.
But that was this fall. The election is now over.
In addition to suggesting that there’s a distinction in some individuals’s minds between killing a mentally sick homeless man and killing a company govt, he additionally posted on Blue Sky’s web page , posted some fairly convincing proof.
If this does not persuade you that 2+2=5, you must do a little analysis.

Mr. Orman scoffs on the notion of frugality orchestrated within the pathetic excesses of a budget Trump whore, whereas Mr. Wexler factors out that only a few individuals voted for Mr. Ramaswamy and none for Mr. Musk. Point out that there was not.

And I feel J.D. Vance most likely went fishing.
Deb Milbrath just isn’t notably subtly suggesting that Dear Leader plans to revenue from her function as a public servant.
Perhaps she’s referring to the $18 million he created from the Bitcoin tycoon, or his plan to have Republicans maintain coaching camps on his compound, or perhaps she’s simply referring to the $18 million he created from the Bitcoin tycoon, or perhaps she’s simply referring to the truth that the plutocrats are in management could merely misunderstand his ideas on easy methods to circumvent the laws.
The worst half is that whereas we won’t affirm whether or not that is actual or not, it actually appears like him.
