“Behold, the Spring has come; the earth has received the embraces of the sun and we shall soon see the results of that love!

Every seed is awakened and so has all animal life. It is through this mysterious power that we too have our being, and we therefore yield to our neighbors, even our animal neighbors, the same right as ourselves, to inhabit this land.

Yet, hear me, people, we have now to deal with another race – small and feeble when our fathers first met them but now great and overbearing. Strangely enough they have a mind to till the soil and the love of possession is a disease with them. These people have made many rules that the rich may break but the poor may not. They take their tithes from the poor and weak to support the rich and those who rule.

They claim this mother of ours, the earth, for their own and fence their neighbors away; they deface her with their buildings and their refuse. The nation is like a spring freshet that overruns its banks and destroys all that are in its path.

We cannot dwell side by side. Only seven years ago we made a treaty by which we were assured that the buffalo country should be left to us forever. Now they threaten to take that away from us. My brothers, shall we submit or shall we say to them: ‘First kill me before you take possession of my land” ― Sitting Bull

Ghouls: Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday that an alleged leader of a recent disruption in a Minnesota church has been arrested. Bondi wrote online that federal agents arrested Nekima Levy Armstrong, a protestor “who allegedly played a key role in organizing the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota.”

The crime writer Val McDermid has revealed she was assigned a “sensitivity reader” to remove language that could cause offence from her earlier works.

The Scottish author has sold more than 19m novels worldwide and is known for the authenticity of the dialogue in her work.

The books she wrote in the 1980s and 1990s featured characters in law enforcement who used racial and homophobic slurs to reflect attitudes that were prevalent at the time.

Speaking at the Out in the Hills festival in Pitlochry, an LGBTQ+ event, she spoke out about the changes she agreed to make before her Lindsay Gordon books are republished.

McDermid, referred to as the queen of crime, said it was dishonest to make authors change their previous work to “conform” to modern-day sensibilities, The Times reported.

She said: “I had to have a sensitivity reader to read my Lindsay Gordon novels to tell me the things that I couldn’t say now. I argued the case that these books were of their time and that it’s dishonest to try to make them read differently.

“In most instances, I won my point. The few examples where I didn’t win my point were to do with race.”

The Lindsay Gordon mystery novels feature a protagonist who is a lesbian Scottish freelance journalist.

McDermid, 70, added: “I think it’s kind of interesting to look at novels that were written in a particular time. A lot has changed in 40 years. But a book set in 1987 can’t suddenly have the sensibilities of a book that’s going to be published now.”

Back to the Epstein Files: Authorities in Jordan appear to be using an Israeli digital tool to extract information from the mobile phones of activists and protesters who have been critical of Israel and spoken out in support of Gaza, according to a new report by the Citizen Lab.

A multiyear investigation found with high confidence that Jordanian security authorities have been using forensic extraction tools made by Cellebrite against members of civil society, including two political activists, a student organizer, and a human rights defender, the researchers said.

When Cellebrite’s tool is deployed by authorities who have physical access to a mobile phone, it can extract data including photos, videos, chats, files, saved passwords, location history, wifi history, phone usage records, web history, social media accounts and in some cases data that a user has attempted to delete.

The Citizen Lab, which investigates digital threats against civil society, said its forensic investigation of devices that were previously seized by authorities in Jordan, as well as court records shared with researchers, indicate that the use of Cellebrite by authorities “likely violated human rights treaties Jordan has ratified”. Under the international covenant on civil and political rights (ICCPR), Jordan is required to comply with strict limits on the targeting of political dissidents and civil society with surveillance technology.

A big “C” for Cuntry Music:

Country crooner Craig Morgan is incredibly “honored” after being promoted to chief warrant officer two (CW2) at the Pentagon.

During an interview with Fox News Digital, Morgan talked about the ceremony and being promoted by the Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth. Morgan said it was a “huge honor” to have Hegseth officiate the ceremony, which took place at the Pentagon on Jan. 15.

“It was an honor. It’s always a huge honor when one of the senior leaders in your chain of command pins your rank on,” Morgan began.

After two decades of service while maintaining a full music career, “humility and pride” were the only two things going through his mind at the time of his promotion.

“Two things. Humility. I was honored beyond anything in hopes that people would recognize the pride that we have in our nation and our uniform as service members,” he began.

Columbia University anti-Zionist protest leader Mahmoud Khalil will likely be deported to Algeria, a US official says.

The Trump administration arrested Khalil last year during its crackdown on campus activists in the US.

Khalil’s legal team has waged a legal battle against his deportation, but an appeals court last week ruled in favor of the administration, bringing authorities a step closer to detaining and deporting Khalil.

Hand Maid’s TALE:

Chile’s incoming far-right president José Antonio Kast has named a vehement opponent of abortion who has repeatedly stated her support for life “from conception to natural death” as the country’s new women and gender equality minister.

Judith Marín, 30, was once ejected from Chile’s senate by police for screaming “return to the Lord” during a vote to decriminalise abortion under restricted circumstances.

Christ, the rich telling the world to tax them? How about axe them? Without naming names, the campaign raises concerns that the undue influence of the wealthiest in society is putting the world on an “obscene trajectory”.

Nearly 400 millionaires and billionaires have signed an open letter demanding higher taxes on the super-rich as the World Economic Forum in Switzerland gets underway.

The statement, signed by high-profile figures including Ocar-nominated actor Mark Ruffalo and musician Brian Eno, warns that the extremely wealthy are having a negative effect on the world.

Highlighting reports that the richest 1 per cent of people own more than 95 per cent of the rest of the world’s population combined, the letter calls on global leaders to close the widening gap.

Cows and anuses. The Trump administration is dropping its appeal of a federal court ruling that blocked a campaign against diversity, equity, and inclusion threatening federal funding to the nation’s schools and colleges.

The Education Department, in a court filing Wednesday, moved to dismiss its appeal. It leaves in place a federal judge’s August decision finding that the anti-DEI effort violated the First Amendment and federal procedural rules.
