Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...

If I'm reading this right, *50% to 90%* of voters at high-turnout locations are being redirected to their precincts????
If that is causing voters to just give up, it would explain the massive undercount for Crockett thus far today in Dallas.

Former New Mexico Attorney General Balderas details how the FBI forcefully shut down New Mexico's criminal probe into what was up at Epstein's Zorro Ranch in Santa Fe Co. The feds insisted that they were running their own criminal probe and that NM's involvement would not be tolerated. It was a lie.
It is sad

A BBC investigation finds 14-year-old Jad Jadallah was shot at close range by Israeli soldiers during a November raid in al-Far’a refugee camp in the occupied West Bank. CCTV shows a soldier stepping out from just metres away and firing. As Jad ran wounded, footage suggests the soldier kept shooting from behind. He collapsed in an alley. Video and witnesses show at least 14 soldiers forming a cordon around the teen as he “bled to death” for roughly 45 minutes, blocking two Palestinian ambulances at gunpoint, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent, whose call logs show the first ambulance arrived within eight minutes. Paramedics said they were forced to watch from about 100 yards away. No visible life-saving aid was given, despite the IDF units including trained medics. The IDF claims Jad threw a rock, but footage shows a soldier dropping an object beside him and photographing it, which his family and B’Tselem say looks like an attempt to frame him. The Israeli military has refused to return his body, leaving unanswered how many times Israeli soldiers shot the 14-year old and where.
