War Wheel

 

ICE’s performance is intimidating and deadly, but also farcical

 Seeing large men dressed in goggles and trenchcoats echoes the camp fascism of musical comedies

 

Emma Brockes 

 

An aspect of ICE’s deadly performance in Minneapolis that goes hand-in-hand with its mission to intimidate is the absolutely farcical tone of the ICE aesthetic. Broadway numbers like Springtime for Hitler in The Producers and, more recently, Das Übermensch in Operation Mincemeat, a showstopper performed with a German techno beat and Nazi boyband – “Third Reich on the mic” – vocals, present fascism as an essentially camp enterprise and we’re reminded this week that ICE fits the mould entirely.

It’s always about the costumes, isn’t it? Here’s border patrol chief, Greg Bovino, swishing around Minnesota in his long, green trenchcoat – as Gavin Newsom, the governor of California put it, “as if he literally went on eBay and purchased SS garb” – while rank and file ICE agents were described by Keith Ellison, Minnesota’s attorney general, as prancing about in “full battle rattle”. The vests, the fatigues, the goggles; I swear most of these goons are only in it for the accessories and an opportunity to admire themselves and each other under cover of rugged co-combatant team spirit. Meanwhile, as Lydia Polgreen pointed out in the New York Times, their sheer incompetence adds a darkly slapstick layer to events via videos of, for example, large men dressed for war slipping on ice and going “ass over teakettle”.

If you laugh in their faces you run the risk of being shot, but there’s nothing to stop it going on behind their backs. If I were an editor in New York I would send someone to Broadway to report on how recent events are affecting audiences at Operation Mincemeat – specifically, how they react to a line that passed unremarked in the London West End production, but has been stopping the show in the US: “If people like us just blindly follow orders, the fascists won’t need to bash the door down. They’ll have already won.” Friends who saw the show two weeks ago reported that the performance ground to a halt at this line as the entire theatre rose to its feet, screaming and clapping. One can only imagine how long the interruption is now.

The taking of Liam Ramos reveals the sheer sadism of ICE

 

 

"Liam was bundled up for school against the frigid Minnesota winter. Someone – was it his father, who was captured along with him, or his mother, who must now be wondering when she will see her child again – pulled him into his plaid jacket, and packed a lunch into the Spider-Man backpack that is nearly as big as he is. In a school picture released by his school district, Liam has the fat cheeks of a baby, and a smile that reveals a row of square milk teeth. It is unclear whether, at the detention camp in Texas he was quickly spirited away to, he has been allowed to stay with his father, or whether the boy is imprisoned alone."

In the Trump era, we need satire more than ever. Just don’t expect it to save democracy

 

 

"“Trump gave us so much fodder that you could only approach it at a superficial level, and a lot of viewers, I think, went: you’re just recounting the day,” millennial American standup star Gianmarco Soresi told me. Comedy at its best, he continued, “is trying to blow things up. Comedy should question power, and the second that comedy becomes power, it’s lost its efficacy, and that’s why it was so offensive when comedians kind of saddled up to Trump.”

However, Soresi was also quick to say that comedy cannot replace politics: there are limits to its powers. “Do I think we can create a space for relief? Yes. Do I think it can create a space for reflection? Yes. Do I think – as an American Jew – it can poke holes in Israel’s geopolitical agenda? Yes,” says Soresi. “Do I think it can build a political movement that takes down Netanyahu? No.”"

Marianne Faithfull: sem melodrama -

 

 

 

 

 

 

"É possível que não tenha existido mulher mais linda na história do rock que a inglesa Marianne Faithfull (1946-2025) nos anos 1960.

É possível também que ninguém do rock – homem ou mulher – tenha mergulhado tão fundo no abismo quanto ela.

É possível que ninguém tenha se reconstruído como pessoa forte mais que ela.

E é possível que ninguém da cultura pop tenha uma autobiografia mais sincera e poderosa que Faithfull: An Autobiography, escrita com a ajuda do jornalista inglês David Dalton e publicada originalmente em novembro de 1994."

O decenio decisivo

 

LOR  (Luis Oswaldo Rodrigues) :


Então, sem vacilo, para sobreviver na catástrofe climática, vamos ter que correr com algumas ideias que o cientista Luiz Marques apresenta em seu último livro “O decênio decisivo – propostas para uma política de sobrevivência”.

Tenho participado de movimentos ecológicos, lido, escrito e desenhado para procurar entender a mudança climática (ver ao final alguns dos meus textos), mas quase todas as dúvidas que eu tinha foram respondidas no livro do Luiz Marques. Portanto, é o livro mais importante que já li sobre nossa realidade política, econômica e social numa análise rigorosa dos temas relacionados ao aquecimento global e à catástrofe climática que já está em curso.

O “decênio decisivo” a qu se refere Luiz Marques - para que pudéssemos reduzir os impactos do aquecimento global - é a década que estamos vivendo (2020 a 2030), na qual deveria haver mudanças significativas no capitalismo predador e seu consumo de energia insustentável. Sem estas mudanças drásticas, não conseguiremos ficar abaixo dos 2 graus de elevação da temperatura média da superfície do planeta, o que significa alterações profundas do clima no planeta, as quais ameaçam a civilização atual e a continuidade da nossa própria espécie.

Algumas ideias fartamente documentadas no livro do Luiz Marques são:

1)       Não há mais tempo para reverter a mudança climática que o modo de produção capitalista provocou

2)       Não há capitalismo sustentável

3)       Não há sinais de que a elite dominante possa mudar seu modo de vida predatório, inclusive porque elas não dão a mínima para os cientistas

4)       Não há, até agora, tecnologia salvadora

5)       Não sabemos exatamente o que acontecerá, mas todos os cenários cientificamente estudados são de sofrimento para milhões de pessoas

6)       Não há solução individual

7)       Não há para onde fugir

Diante desta situação, as alternativas para reduzirmos o sofrimento das futuras gerações, segundo Luiz Marques, são (parênteses meus, como entendi):

Redução radical e emergencial das diversas desigualdades entre os membros da espécie humana (socialismo democrático).

Diminuição imediata do consumo humano de materiais e de energia (em todas suas formas, portanto decrescimento econômico).

Extensão da ideia de sujeito de direito às demais espécies, à biosfera e às paisagens naturais (o planeta não é recurso, muito menos infinito).

Restauração e ampliação das reservas naturais, que devem ser consideradas como santuários inacessíveis aos mercados globais (especialmente onde vivem os povos originários).

Desmantelamento da economia global e transição para uma civilização descarbonizada (mudar para energia eólica, nuclear e solar).

Desglobalização do sistema alimentar e sua transição para uma alimentação baseada em nutrientes vegetais (abolir o consumo industrial da carne, zerar o desmatamento).

Transformar o arcabouço jurídico internacional em benefício de uma soberania nacional relativa (um mundo sem fronteiras, sem nacionalismos).

Acelerar o decrescimento econômico e a transição demográfica (ou seja, menos crescimento com população mundial menor).

 

Meu pânico vem do fato de já estarmos no meio da década... e o que vemos é o capitalismo aumentando sua destruição do ambiente, incluindo as novas guerras, os muitos governantes negacionistas do aquecimento global, o enfraquecimento das entidades internacionais de controle do clima e o esvaziamento das ações em defesa do ambiente, como a COP 30, em Belém. Assim, o novo mundo que está surgindo ameaça se tornar a sexta extinção em massa.”

Trump is doing his best to subvert his own DoJ’s case against Maduro.

 Jeffrey St. Clair >

 
+ It’s been nearly 2 weeks since Trump’s Venezuelan coup and his declaration that the US is running Venezuela. But the US still isn’t running Venezuela.

+ Trump is doing his best to subvert his own DoJ’s case against Maduro. First, in a press conference at Mar-a-Lago, Trump accused Maduro of heading a drug cartel that his own DoJ now admits doesn’t exist. Second, in his social media post announcing Maduro’s kidnapping, he referred to Maduro as “President Nicolas Maduro,” which contradicts his DOJ’s position that Maduro is not the legitimate leader of Venezuela and shouldn’t be afforded sovereign immunity. (It was for the reason that the previous Trump administration stopped referring to him as president in 2019, when they were considering a similar operation.)

+ In his Mar-a-Lago press conference, Trump claimed that Maduro was the head of “the vicious cartel known as Cartel de los Soles, which flooded our nation with lethal poison.” In fact, the term Cartel de los Soles is slang for “drug corruption in the military.” When your case crumbles before you even present it to a judge…

+ One of the Department of Justice’s key witnesses in its case against Maduro is Hugo Carvajal, a former Venezuelan general, who pleaded guilty last year to drug trafficking charges and, in December, wrote a letter asking for leniency, in which he backed the farcical claim that Venezuela had helped rig the 2020 election for Biden.

+ The big question in Venezuela remains: who was the CIA’s source inside the Maduro government? Much of the focus has been on VP, Delcy Rodriguez, who, though she has publicly denounced the raid and kidnapping, seems to be maintaining a back-channel to Rubio. But her hold on power remains tenuous, with Chauvistas to the left of her, MUD to her right and the generals watching for any false step. Jon Lee Anderson: “I guess she’s expected to keep the heads of the military and the intelligence services from doing any power grabs or displacing her. But there may be mutual suspicions there. So it’s kind of a knife-edge situation.”

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Davos

 

 "Trump landed a deflated man. During his nearly incoherent speech at the World Economic Forum, Trump looked morose and sounded peevish. The words slurred, the fraying sentences trailing off into the ether. His insults lacked fire and punch. He rambled aimlessly. His cognitive decline, never a fall from alpine heights to begin with, was on full public display.

Was this the fearsome tyrant, so many had trembled in obeisance before? He looked like an old man, frail in body, infirm in mind. Not the new Sun King of his cult-stoked fantasies, but a patriarch deep into his autumn, struggling to find the words for retreat. Trump’s strategy (if you can call it that) for cultivating more enemies than friends was always doomed to backfire on him. The only question was how long it would take and how many he’d drag down with him. "

“Trump’s” This, “Trump’s” That, “Trump’s….and a Telling Truth (or Two)

"The FakeUSA is a religious state. Its highest holy is unrestrained scheming for private profits. The church alternates between two choirs which are funded by the monetarily-obsessed elites of the church who are quickly bored by and resentful of any voices which have redeeming, unscripted and genuine qualities and which do not help drown-out the tormented cries of the prey – whose consumption is mandated by the greed-filled desperate elites. Trump is the latest choirmaster and his effectiveness is reflected in the passions and smugness of both choirs. He out-Bushes the Bushes and he out-Obamas the Obamas and he proudly knows he has achieved a level of honest indifference to rampant suffering – in the name of monetary impunity – which his predecessors and congresses had long been striving towards. He also knows that it is the passions of both his supporters and his (supposed) opponents which reinforce the falsehood of his fake individualism. THEY make him extraordinary and they both foolishly help make his democrat and republican enablers appear as if they are to varying degrees more respectably reticent and hapless. They mistake cynicism and compliance as a sign of wisdom. Cravenness flourishes among the voters as they proudly eschew integrity in favor of what they misguidedly grasp at as pragmatism (which is, in reality, a devotion to can-kicking and lint-picking for the benefit of the greediest predators)."

The Donroe Doctrine is a Recipe for Two, Three... Many Iraqs

 "This is the real reason why the Donald isn’t so quick to shove a Washington snitch like Maria Machado into the presidential palace. He’s gaming on making another one of his infamous scumfuck deals with the same military brass he calls a cartel in hopes that they can convince the lower ranks to put down their gats while he siphons off the gas supply. It’s a big fucking gamble and he better pray it pays off because otherwise he has painted his ass into a corner with more than just Venezuelan crude. Latin America is one big Molotov cocktail that’s been ready to blow since the Conquistadors lit it to fire the rise the First World with the fuel of the Third and I’m not the first lunatic to eyeball that flame with a flicker of rambunctious hope either."

Did Hunter S. Thompson really kill himself?

  

"For decades, Owl Farm was Hunter S. Thompson’s lair, the place where he wrote, drank and drugged, entertained celebrities, shot guns at all hours, commanded his quixotic campaign for sheriff in 1970 and, finally, on a snowy Sunday evening in February 2005, died in front of his IBM Selectric typewriter from a single gunshot to the head.

The next day, a doctor conducted an autopsy and reported, “the injuries were consistent with the reported self-inflicted gunshot wound.”

“Case status is Closed/noncriminal,” the chief investigator for the county sheriff’s department wrote to close out his report.

That’s where things seemed destined to remain, until quite recently."

The whole world saw Trump's cognitive collapse today

 

 

"Today, as the navy curtains parted, Trump emerged into view, confused, slow to react, like he wasn’t sure whether he was walking into a meeting or waking up from one. His arms hung awkwardly at his sides. His legs were rigid and slightly bent, like he didn’t know how far to walk or what direction he was supposed to go. His shoulders were hunched forward, his mouth was open as he struggled to take full breaths, and his eyes stared eerily forward, wide, blank, and unblinking. He didn’t seem aware of where he was or that he was once again stepping in front of the world’s leading business and government leaders.

Within minutes of the image being posted on social media, people identifying as healthcare workers were commenting under it. One said, “Those are dementia eyes. As a healthcare worker, I know them well.” Another posted, “I’ve worked in dementia care for 4 solid years; Jan 2018 to Dec 2021, I recognise a dementia patient, when I see a dementia patient, and I SEE A DEMENTIA PATIENT. He is standing there lost, bewildered & utterly confused!” Someone else added, “That is literally how my 86-year-old mother stands. She’s had multiple mini strokes. She walks hunched over and she wears diapers. I love her, but I would not let her near the White House.”"

'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' What Happened?

 

 

"When I heard that A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms was telling a smaller tale about one character in a single location, I was intrigued. Based on Martin’s Dunk & Egg novellas, this story has no dragons, no magic, and no zipping back-and-forth across Westeros. It sounded like the perfect solution to two of the streaming industry’s largest problems: 1/ Every entertainment company wants universes of IP until they realize that scale does not easily translate into TV, and 2/ No showrunner can predict how much they can or cannot deviate from the source material and still hold their fanbase intact. So, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms took a knife to both and tried something brave by trimming the dragon fat. If it didn’t work, it’s only six episodes. But from the first forty minutes, it feels like the first story in this franchise that’s finally free."

ICE has killed before and will kill again.

 

 

JEFFREY ST, CLAIR}

In the last year, ICE agents have fired shots at least 15 times, killing four people. They shot at people trying to warn them of children in the area of their raids and they shot people running away from them. They shot people in a very similar way that they shot Renee Good: while they were in their cars, driving away and then blamed them for trying to run over ICE officers. On September 3, an ICE agent shot and killed Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez, a Mexican national, after dropping his daughter off at pre-school. ICE originally said that Villegas-Gonzalez was shot after he tried to run over an ICE agent, who DHS claimed had been severely wounded. Then, a video of the incident recorded the voice of the officer grazed by Villegas-Gonzalez’s car saying his injury was “nothing major.” Another video showed that Villegas-Gonzalez was driving away from the ICE officers, not toward them. DHS tried to smear Villegas-Gonzalez as a dangerous criminal with a “history of reckless driving.” But a new report by NBC News Chicago shows that he had never been convicted or even charged with a crime.

On October 4, an immigration agent shot Marimar Martinez five times while the 30-year-old teaching assistant and US citizen was driving around the Brighton Park neighborhood of Chicago, warning residents of an impending ICE raid. The Border Patrol officer who shot Martinez pulled up beyond her car and shouted, “Do something, bitch!,” as he aimed his assault rifle at her. He later bragged about the shooting in a text message to fellow agents: “I fired 5 rounds and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book boys.” The agents falsely claimed that Martinez had tried to ram them with her car and arrested the seriously wounded woman. The charges against her were later dismissed.

A day after the Minneapolis shootings, Border Patrol agents in Portland shot two people, a man and a woman, during a traffic stop in the parking of a medical center complex. Once again they claimed they had tried to use the vehicle as a weapon, although both of them couldn’t have been driving at the same time. DHS also claimed both were members of the Tren de Aragua gang, though they offered no evidence to buttress the charge. The couple, who are reportedly married, escaped on foot and were later taken by Portland to a hospital. The man was shot twice and the woman suffered a gunshot wound to the chest. Portland’s Mayor, Keith Wilson, called for ICE and Border Patrol to leave the city, saying “Portland isn’t a training ground for militarized agents.”

So in the course of two days, Trump’s immigration shock troops shot a mother of three and a married couple.

These kinds of raids, while shocking to most Americans, are familiar to many immigrants from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador, countries still haunted by the death squads funded, armed and trained by the CIA. Horrors that they fled and have now reappeared like ghosts from the past here on the streets of Chicago and Minneapolis and Los Angeles. They know all too well that collateral damage is a feature of all paramilitaries.
