U.S. Border Enforcement - ICE will get you

Someone on Reddit apparently described the incident as "assault with a deli weapon."

I was intrigued to see it's being charged as a felony in the US. The UK abolished felony as a legal concept about 100 years ago, but the equivalent offence over here, common assault on an emergency worker, is a very low-level crime, normally dealt with in the Magistrates' court, which would probably result in a conditional discharge or low level community order.

Bondi must deter the most heinous of criminal elements, such as Department of Justice employees, from flinging life-threatening objects at "law enforcement officers."

Like maybe cleaning the bread fragments and various sandwich ingredients off the street? That sounds fair.

Is there a facism-free news source on whatever is happening? I don't X.

I normally use reliable news sites, like the BBC, Sky News, The Guardian and, for a minimal fee, Reuters.

You might also check out BlueSky. Most of the people I followed on X are now there, either additionally or exclusively.

Sadly, no US based sites on your list, but yes, The Guardian is my number one pick.

They're all pretty good for US news, though. Obviously it was a long time ago, but back when I lived in CA for a couple of years, I found myself far better informed about US news from The Guardian's overseas weekly edition and from the BBC World Service than from US news sources, which were good for news about CA but, even back then, seemed to rely on wire services for news about everywhere else, including the rest of the US.

Actually I was just looking for a link that was NOT X, but I was able to google around and found out it was about about the usual Trump officials who should not be allowed access to common kitchen utensils.

Thanks for the English-language FAZ link, detrius, I've been thinking of expanding my reading beyond NPR, the WP, BBC, and the Guardian. I'm especially pleased to know they have a good bit of analysis in English, and their content is generally meatier than DW.

The FAZ is a centre-right newspaper (AKA "baby-eating commie scum" in Murrican).

It's centre-left counterpart would be "Die Zeit" (last link in my previous post).

Yeah, I got that take reading through it, and I remember from high school German it had a frumpy-dowdy-we-are-not-das-Bild-pushing-up-our-glasses-wrinkling-our-forehead-in-disgust reputation. I'm going to have to peek around for die Zeit English Language materials as well, then. Although center-right in Europe is still rather sane and not at war with anyone. Thanks again

EDIT: Google automatically translates it. Now I just have to look for the free content

Is alligator Auschwitz being emptied?

It looks like Alligator-we-will-never-speak-about-this-in-20-years is closing down. Not because anyone in the can't-be-trusted-with-sharp-objects crowd had a moment of consciousness, but because of a lawsuit.

If you're going to build a crimes-against-humanity camp on Native-American land, you really should ask the Native-American tribe for permission first. But hey, it's OK, they got their photo op for the red meat crowd.

 

[Innula Zenovka]

This, from Friday, describes What we know about the lawsuits that could shut down ‘Alligator Alcatraz’, describing cases in which the issues are the environmental impact of the camp and the rights of the detainees. It doesn't mention native American land rights, though.

 

[Soen Eber]

Well, it's Floridah. DeSantis is king, lord protector, and divinely elected head of the entire realm, and so exercising his imbued rights as Lord Jesus' majesty and protector of the faith, it sort of makes sense, doesn't it?

That's my story*, and I'm sticking to it! *bangs his fist on an upside down bible*

* And After hasty and overdue "due diligence" ABC News' Meet the Native American tribe that beat the Trump administration in court -- for now

Sorry, it just sounded so right, but I still should have sought confirmation. I lucked out, this time.

*bangs his fist on an upside down bible*

That's hard to do, since a Bible - or any book really - can only be upside down if you're attempting to read it that way.
