Former Senior Producer Tess Vigeland of the Wall Street Journal:
"He is lying. They are lying. They are literally making this shit up. I live four blocks from the ICE facility they say is a "war zone." ... There are, on average, maybe 30 protesters who've camped out (they have a small grill) and set up tents. [T]he notion that this city of 600,000 people is a war zone is completely laughable.
This is all for show by an authoritarian administration that knows its base will applaud because oooooh lookie a liberal city getting its due. (I have relatives who will applaud this, by the way.) But they're lying. They're all LYING."

Israeli bike racing team excluded from Giro d'Italia after pro-Palestine protesters disrupt previous race
The AP is reporting that protesters with Palestinian flags disrupted 7 of 11 says of the Spanish Vuelta pro bike race. At least one flagpole with a Palestinian flag on it was thrown onto the racecourse.
Citing this, organizer of the Giro d'Italia have banned the Israel Premier Tech from the race, citing "safety concerns." This is correct: one flagpole through the spokes of an Israeli riders front wheel could cause a pileup crash endangering ALL riders behind them.
In the peloton, riders often ride with only a an inch or so separating a front rider's rear wheel from the rider behind them's front wheel. I have ridden in training peltons myself and even a couple Cat 5 (amateur) bike races myself when I was younger so I know exactly how close and fast the action is in a tightly spaced peloton. There is almost no time to react to a crash ahead. The riders are good enough bike handlers that most of the time they are able to evade piling up when someone goes down (often in a corner) but not all of the time.
Yes, this is about safety. Israel should not be allowed to enter any sporting event where they attract anything that could endanger other participants.
The Vuelta and Giro are both stage races like the well-known Tour De France and two of the big ones. Neither can afford to invite a hazard like Israeli teams. Vuelta organizers got burned on this, Giro organizers learned from it.

Today in #electronics I built the world's worst Direct Conversion Receiver, for the AM broadcast band
It sounds very poor and low volume, but it definitely works, I can receive both of the two local stations at 630kHz and 800kHz
The LO is my signal generator
I tried adding a RF amp to fix the low volume but it resulted in breakthrough of the stronger station and heavy distortion
also tried amplifying the audio between LPF and LM386 without success

#ICE arrests #superintendent of #Iowa’s largest school district
By Zoe Sottile, Priscilla Alvarez, September 27, 2025
Excerpt: "The school district and #DHS presented starkly divergent portraits of [Superintendent #IanRoberts]. DHS described him as a 'criminal alien' and suggested he was a public safety threat. But at a news conference after his arrest, board president of #DesMoines #PublicSchools Jackie Norris said the superintendent was 'an integral part of our school community' who 'has shown up in ways big and small' for students and staff. And Roberts disclosed his weapon charge, related to a hunting rifle, when he was hired, a district spokesperson told CNN.
"The arrest spurred a protest outside the federal courthouse in Des Moines. '#Education, not #deportation / Free Dr. Roberts,' read one sign carried by a demonstrator, according to footage from CNN affiliate KCCI. Local education and immigration advocacy groups have rallied behind the superintendent."

It's all about a show of power and keeping you all under his thumb.
The tax payers' money he's wasting on troops, refurbishing aircraft, destroying rose gardens and building ballrooms is staggering.

Miller, Bannon and Jeff sessions were seeking Avenue into the White House in order to pursue their political ideas.
Of the three Miller is the only survivor. It has been even before the first administration.
