It was a warm day for October in Minnesota, so we kept our walk short and shady, with the stream below Mound Springs Park at the turn-around point.
Pawing at the water is a new behavior for Tonttu! Normally he just flumps down as deep as he can get to soak his fur, but today the riffles inspired more action.
Pawing at rippling water was something Gypsy used to do, so it's nice that Tonttu has taken up that banner. 🥹

Se alle destre fa paura la grande flottiglia popolare. Un commento di Daniela Preziosi su Domani:
"La Flotilla ha avuto la forza di farci empatizzare con la sua fragilità. Capace di rompere non il blocco navale di Netanyahu ma la cappa di impotenza che attanaglia ciascuno di noi da mesi di fronte allo sterminio del popolo palestinese per mano armata del governo israeliano"

There are those who say #PalestineAction should call off their demonstration tomorrow as a mark of respect for the 2 people who died in the Synagogue but at least 72 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip since dawn today, including 42 in Gaza City alone, according to medical sources speaking to Al Jazeera
So, no

Yes, I too have been wondering if anyone would comment on the obvious hierarchy of minorities’ lives.
White apparently being more valuable than olive-skinned or brown. Surprise, surprise.

in reply to Nonilex • • •The firing came hours after Julie Kelly, a *writer* who advocated for #Jan6 defendants & is deeply connected to the #Trump admin, had posted that the public “can only assume” that Ben-Ary “was a big part of the internal resistance” to indicting Comey.
…Asked about the post & Ben’Ary’s firing, the White House referred comment to #DOJ. A DOJ spox declined to comment on the reason for the firing; saying the department does not comment on personnel matters 😜.

in reply to Nonilex • • •Contrary to Kelly’s assertion, 3 sources say Ben’Ary did not work on the Comey case.…
The decision to indict #JamesComey has been heavily criticized by #legal #experts & former #DOJ employees, as well as a group of former state & federal #judges.
Ben’Ary’s dismissal followed the firing last week of Maya Song, another DOJ prosecutor who worked in the Eastern District of Virginia.

in reply to Nonilex • • •Both Ben’Ary & Song previously worked under former Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, who oversaw the early stages of the federal investigations into #Trump. Trump posted on his social media website last week that Monaco’s current employer, Microsoft, should “immediately terminate” her, calling Monaco “corrupt & total Trump deranged” & a “menace to US national security, especially given the major contracts that Microsoft has” with the government.
