A group of Buddhist monks are walking from Ft. Worth #Texas to #WashingtonDC for peace. Although people have been supportive of them, there was a disaster in Houston where a car hit one of the monks, who then required a BTK amputation. They stopped and stayed with him while he was in hospital, then moved on. They're now in Mississippi.
Su Dinh Gioi, one of the Venerable Monks of Walk for Peace, gives us this beautiful message of mindfulness and peace:
Under Ted Cruz's excuse for leadership, the #veterans' sit in at Union Station in #WashingtonDC was illegally removed, though they had a valid permit through January 10th. No matter, they are carrying on talking to #NationalGuard and causing other good trouble.
Here, two veterans turn themselves into the #FBI as "field commanders for Antifa." Hilarity ensues.

Протестите в България не са случайни – корупция, политическа безотговорност и руско влияние. Защо ЕС трябва да реагира?

"They state that “the #security and #safety concern centres on the fact that the proposed much enlarged #Jewish #Museum building will significantly increase its visibility and prominence, thereby creating a new and serious #terrorist risk”.
The Smillie family added: “Unlike the current smaller museum, which fits discreetly within the existing environment and attracts little attention, the expanded and enlarged structure will stand out as a conspicuous symbol."
They further stated that “given the current volatile political climate in the #MiddleEast, this prominent Jewish cultural building could become a very real target for politically motivated attacks, including #terrorism, violent physical #protests, or acts intended to make #political statements."

“Do you know what it feels like when standing on the sidewalk is a crime?”
Day 381 of nonstop protests in Georgia. Most banners today demanded sanctions on GD, an investigation into #theCamiteCase, and an end to the criminalization of peaceful protest.

Why do we continue to do it? For me, in part, because it gives hope to the drivers passing by, perhaps, I like to think, gives them strength to resist, themselves.

A fair question.
It refers to Georgian Dream PM Irakli Kobakhidze appearing alongside Vladimir Putin today at a forum in Turkmenistan.
Starting today, protesting on Rustaveli Avenue without notifying police 5 days in advance or 'restricting movement' on a sidewalk is illegal.
