Yes, I am single-issue posting. Because, here in the U.S., the regime's ICE attack on the country is the main story. No one is safe here as long as heavily armed gangs of thugs are roaming the streets and the regime is covering their crimes with lies.

New opinion piece in The Hankyoreh
"2300여년 전, 고대 아테네 시민들은 시내 한복판에 두개의 비석을 세웠다. 비석 윗부분에 민주주의를 의인화한 데모크라티아가 시민을 의인화한 데모스에게 왕관을 씌우는 장면이 장식되어 있었다. 이는 주권은 시민에게 있고, 모든 권력은 시민으로부터 나온다는 고대 아테네 민주주의의 핵심 원칙을 단번에 드러낸다..."

in his first ever appearance, superman beats up spousal abusers, halts an unjust execution and exposes government corruption.
i love how people think they *just now* made superheroes woke

I was the only foreign media reporter allowed inside South Korea’s Constitutional Court for the verdict today to remove impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol from office.
Here’s what it was like:
축! 윤석열 파면! (...천만다행;;)
👏👏👏 slownews.kr/132817
'숫자'로 본 파면
5:0 탄핵 사유 모두 인정
8:0 헌법재판관 만장일치
6.3 차기 대선일은 6월3일 유력(선례 비추면, 60일 뒤)
123 12.3 계엄에서 4.4 파면까지 123일(시작일 포함)
1059 대통령실 봉황기가 내려갔다. 취임 1059일 만이다.
8 윤석열 8대 의혹, 이제 내란 말고도 형사소추할 수 있다.

다섯 가지 이유.
1. 중도층 여론: 탄핵 찬성 69 vs. 반대 26
2. 헌재 재판관: 개개인 성향 이전에 재판관
3. 계엄 면허증: 기각하면 윤석열 계엄면허증 주는 셈
4. 내란죄 재판: 검찰 특수본 해체하고 공소 취소 명령
5. 민란: 감당하실 수 있습니까?
