#DemocracyNow has been reporting on #EastPalestine, Ohio, but often following The Guardian because the best information is there.
NPR unable to make links between East Palestine and #CopCity in Atlanta, so they're reporting is almost useless.

Alan Kohler: Farmers and business demand Morrison give them back their ‘slaves’ | The New Daily thenewdaily.com.au/opinion/2021/1… Pleased to see a journalist who 'gets it'. Immigration for wage suppression. #MorrisonFail #DemocracyNow

'Boat people' policy is not just aimed at xenophobes. The government actively encourages xenophobia, by word and deed. Even now, Dutton warns us that Afghan refugees could be terrorists. #MorrisonFail #DemocracyNow
Seven minutes before a judgement is handed down in a refugee case, Karen Andrews changes the status of a refugee, invalidating the judge's decision. The judge is not informed, and makes his judgement accordingly.
This is a clear case of the Government interfering in a legal case in progress. Previously, the Government has responded to losing environment cases by changing the law. What's wrong with our legal establishment?
Is it not obvious that these actions by the government attack the basis of law? Why would we bother to oppose the government, when the government can unilaterally invalidate a win for us? There is no law! #MorrisonFail #democracynow

Because nothing stops you from funding their challengers in the next cycle. And that does nothing to stop the corruption of our body politic.
What we need is for you to #CloseYourCheckbook and get out of the politics business. 2/13

You cannot claim to value #democracy while you devalue its purpose to represent the people. And I hate to be the one to tell you this but in spite of what @MittRomney said, corporations are not people. I'll believe they are when Texas executes one. 3/13

If you want to understand how the #propaganda works you need to read the Luntz document -- "The Key," Luntz says, "is the Claim that the Fight is Over Ideology, Not Land. About Terror, & Not Territory."
