From his wife, Melissa Chaudhry:
“ICE has stolen a beloved husband, a fiercely tender father, and a passionately patriotic American. We are all the poorer for it. My family will suffer every day he is apart from us… Zahid always stood up for the underdog. He always fought for the goodness of our communities. We who know that liberty and justice for all must mean ALL – we know Zahid as the hero we all need… ICE must release this decorated, disabled American veteran – return the heart of my family – and show the world that America still stands for justice and peace.”

Release Zahid Chaudry protest No. 1, Saturday August 24, NWDC
RantWoman finds it a grave challenge to need to point out that ICE treatment of immigrant veterans is deplorable, regardless of whether or not RantWoman supports the wars people have come home from.
RantWoman is also outraged about the thoughts that
1. Exercising Freedom of speech is a barrier to Citizenship. The Country NEEDS diverse articulate voices.
2. Having one's spouse run for Congress against a representative who definitely gets a lot of money from AIPAC could also get in the way of citizenship.
There is an additional protest Sunday afternoon. See separate post.

Would it be good form simply on interreligious dialog for some Quakers to show up at this protest? RantWoman is unavailable and there is another protest Sunday.

Russian economy, drones, media, CORRUPTION, and other themes
Give us this day our daily war videos.
RantWoman posts for informational purposes and has lonly thought out lmited opinions.
Putin does not want peace
Russia cannot afford more war
Conditions on the ground in Russia and Crimea,
No way are territorial concessions are a reasonable request of #Ukraine.
Russia's 'Death Spiral' Accelerates as Elites Flee

RantWoman considers this channel reasonably reliable unlike some other channels that come across as propaganda RantWoman wants, even when she reposts, to check additional sources.
And the Russian attack on the US-backed Flez-Limited factory in Western Kraine
Also what Putin wanted from summit
Trump view change Blame Biden. "Crooked Joe Biden wouldn't let Ukraine fight back.
Jake Broe
Trump tries secondary tariffs on India who doesn't care.
"They won't stop until we stop them."
And in Crimea
Blunt comments about Ukraine impact on Russia logistics, naval warfare and role of drones.

Did the President at LEAST have his own interpreter at the summit in Alaska?
RantWoman has not even tried to interact meaningfully with the August 15 summit involving one clear dictator and one leader trying to head in that direction.
Notable moments:
--An ABC news reporter asked Pres Putin whether he had any plans to stop killing civilians.
--Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov brought a red cap emblazoned with CCCP, the old Russian acronym for the Soviet Union.
--A good deal of internet clatter about red carpets, body language, war crimes, and territory.
--The summit ended early, as in the palaver broke up without even people trying to have the planned lunch together.
Now at least on X, attention has turned to what Zelenskyy (and European leaders should wear for the next meeting. RantWoman's opinion: should the European leaders try to match Zelenskyy or just show up en masse in whatever they usually wear?
RantWoman has been saying for a while that if a certain President wants to end the killing, he can just stop feeding people to the meat grinder and order everyone to GO HOME. Even RantWoman is not glib enough, though, to avoid weighing scenarios like the following,which makes almost no mention of new dimensions of warfare brought about by proliferation everywhere on all sides of drone technology.

Content Warning: Mormon Church in AZ sued over outrageous child sex abuse issues shielded by confession.
Arizona appeals court reopens devastating lawsuit against Mormon Church
This case is germane to WA because WA just changed its mandated reporter laws to cover religious confessions. WA is now being sued by Catholics, Mormons, and Jehovah Witnesses.
RantWoman is pretty close-minded: religious people hearing confessions should AT A MINIMUM be required to deliver the sources of the confession to the front steps of the nearest law enforcement facility.
RantWoman is not a lawyer or a therapist and RantWoman's family experiences are WAY less horrific than the case documented her, but these stories still hit RantWoman in the gut.
Plus RantWoman is WAY OD'd about Ghislaine Maxwell and another family drama trial where parents are awaiting sentencing.

Snark and Summit commentary: Nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine
#Alaska #Russia #Ukraine
RantWoman has been indulging in snark about the upcoming meeting in Alaska between the US and Russian presidents.
Snark: Will the US President, for ONCE, PLEASE bring along his own interpreter???? Pretty Please
Snark: Did the US President misspeak when he said he is going to "Russia?"
--Would this mean a hop over to some Russian territory?
--Would this make Russian nationalists who might want Alaska back really, really happy?
Snark: Crimean War 1.0 in the 1850's left Russia in so much debt that they sold off Alaska to the US at bargain basement prices. Any chance that the US President could convince the Russian president that he really can't afford to hold onto Crimea this time either?
After the recent 8.8 magnitude earthquake of the coast of the Kamchatka Penninsula, there are a whole bunch of erupting volcanoes. Any chance of some kind of act of God that could handle two dictators at once? That would still leave a whole lot of mess to clean up, but maybe at least the messes would stop getting bigger.
One Ukrainian propaganda channel has Zelinskyi already in Alaska. Zelenskyi crashing the Trump Putin pow-wow would be just chef's kiss!
With that, some actual commentary:
Heather Cox Richardson on Europe working around the US
Jason Jay Smart
Video title
Witkoff's mistake could have ruined Trump's Alaska summit with Putin
argues Russia can keep bombing for a long time, cannot evaluate the level of disorder in Russia and the Kremlin
Russian nationalist Alexandr Dugin compares Russia to headless chicken.
If readers are lucky, RantWoman will herd together some commentary about nuclear brinksmanship and WWE style trash talking but perhaps this is enough for now.
CA Civil Trial about how LA deployment violates the Posse Comitatus Act
Trump CRUSHED by MAJOR GENERAL at CRIMINAL TRIAL
RantWoman finds the very existence of this trial reassuring even though it is likely to be a long slog to force the current administration to KNOCK IT OFF about trying to send the military into US cities.
Help me out. The US has no money for medicaid and social services but somehow we have plenty of money for endless spin (LIES) and pointless costly deployments.
Finland files criminal charges in connection with 2024 anchor dragging / cable and gas line cutting.
Finland's major show of force against Putin after Baltic Sea cable sabotage
RantWoman is unclear that Baltic Sea comings and goings of Russian shadow fleet, accompanied by multiple rounds of anchor dragging and cable cuts are automatically of great interest to readers of this blog, but RantWoman posts anyway.
Key obvious concerns:
--Not much commentary about environmental issues including both immediate risks from pipeline cuts and the larger impacts related to greenhouse gas emissions.
--India and China are quite happy thank you very much to buy Russian oil and gas at lower prices than Russia would prefer. Russia has to keep pumping oil to hold its economy together but it cannot sell at prices it would prefer on the world market because of sanctions.
With Finland and Sweden now members of NATO, there are a number of possible military flashpoints in the Baltic Sea and Russian arctic.
The world of international shipping and registries of convenience can make it really difficult to find legal venues to address serious problems.
RantWoman is by no means well-versed in the minutia of sanctions or in the economics of global energy markets, but it is clear that Russia is bearing a heavy economic burden from its war and really should find a way to bow out. Will the US President be of ANY help????
And while Russian hits civilian targets in Ukraine, Ukraine attacks transportation, pipelines, and military supply lines.

Ultimatums and nuclear threats: N Korea from Trump 1.o all over again?
RPT: Russia says it has more nuclear subs positioned than the US
Comments on everything bad at the beginning of the #Russsia war on #Ukraine
"Medvedev has no power. His job is propaganda."
"Putin refuses to make any concessions."
"trump's response to Medvedev's shitposting."
"Trump should never have responded to Medvedev"
"All of Medvedev's former (reformer) circle are in jail now.
OMG: I agree with some of what John Bolton says.
Snark:
Always entertaining to listen to news announcers mispronounce important figures' names.
Threatening nuclear war with N Korea on Twitter just like response to the US president's ultimatum about cease fire.
