Federal #judges who have ruled against the #Trump admin this year are confronting a wave of threats, compromising their safety & the #independence of the #judiciary.

The sister of #SCOTUS Justice #AmyConeyBarrett received a bomb threat earlier this month, & lower court judges who paused some of Trump's efforts to dismantle #FederalAgencies & programs have been targeted.

@MadeyeTheCarnaptious Never… it’s being used as a tool to keep the #SNP and #independence for #Scotland off the radar. The fight must regain its energy and continue. I don’t believe they have any evidence, and it’s surely cost much more in police and legal time than any ‘findings’ they ever make.

The image is a black and white photograph depicting a bustling street corner in what appears to be an urban small town. The architecture suggests it could be from the early 20th century, with brick buildings featuring signage for various businesses such as "Coca-Cola Fountain," "Cravens Confectionery," and "Hoppers' Fountain." People are gathered outside of a confectionery store named after Cravens, possibly awaiting their turn to purchase hop-pickers supplies. The image captures the essence of community life during hop season in Oregon's Williamette Valley.

The image is a black and white photograph depicting an urban street scene from the mid-20th century. The main focus of the photo is on various business signs hanging above a sidewalk, indicating different establishments such as clubs, chambers of commerce, and ice cream parlors. There are several vintage cars parked along the curb, suggesting that this picture was taken in a period when automobiles were becoming more common but not yet predominant.

Pedestrians can be seen walking or standing on the sidewalks, dressed in attire typical for an earlier era - men wearing suits with hats and women possibly in dresses of the time. The architecture includes storefronts with large windows showcasing goods inside, indicative of small-town commerce during that period. There is a sense of daily life going about its usual business.

In terms of context, it appears to be taken at Main Street, which has a population of 1248 and situated in an area known for hop cultivation within the Williamette Valley region. The photo captures what seems like typical street activity during that time in Independence, Polk County, Oregon.

The image captures a bustling street scene in an urban setting, likely during the mid-20th century. It is black and white, which suggests that it might be from historical archives or taken by Dorothea Lange as indicated in your additional information. People are gathered under a food establishment's signboard for Craven's Freezer Fresh Ice Creams, indicating an activity of leisurely waiting to order their treats.

The people present seem diverse and include men wearing hats indicative of that era’s fashion, suggesting it could be around the 1930s or '40s. One notable individual is a man with a blanket roll over his shoulder who appears to be possibly Indian, indicating he might be an immigrant seeking work in hop fields nearby.

The surrounding environment displays vintage cars parked on the street and some pedestrians walking by. A sign mentions 'Lions Club', hinting at community gatherings or organizations of that time period. The overall atmosphere seems casual yet busy with individuals engaged in everyday activities such as waiting for food, conversing among themselves, and possibly searching for employment opportunities.

In summary, it is a slice-of-life depiction reflecting daily human interactions within an urban landscape during the mid-20th century, rich with social diversity and historical context.

“Given the threats & acceleration that I have described, we will have to make more budgetary choices (to increase #defense spending) in #France... w/o raising taxes,” Macron said.

“Whatever happens, we must equip ourselves more (in #Europe). We remain attached to #NATO but we must reinforce our #independence & defense & #security.”

France will make “decisive steps” at Thur’s summit, & massive defense funding will be announced.

The broadcaster placed a longtime journalist on leave amid growing concerns about its editorial *independence*.

VOA, the federally funded [for 83 yrs] broadcaster to the world, has long prided itself on serving as an accurate & fair source of news & on being #independent….

Since the election of #Trump, that #independence is increasingly being tested.

The other day, Design Space updated itself, w/o warning, & next morning, none of my sticker templates would show art, just gray shapes. I couldn't rebuild templates as any uploads wouldn't load on the Canvas. 2h of back & forth on phone/chat, screen shots/videos, & problem was not rectified. The problem affected Win11 and Mac, w/independent internet connections. I got it escalated, so we'll see. Anybody know a good art cutter/embosser that's not cloud-dependent?

Between Tulare and Fresno. (See general caption). Two families originating from Independence, Kansas, on U.S. 99. Started out from Fresno that morning for work cotton chopping

#Tulare #Fresno #Independence #Kansas #second #American #theGreatDepression #America #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017772029/

This black and white photograph captures a moment in time from the 1930s, featuring two antique automobiles parked on what appears to be an open road. The vehicles are adorned with various luggage racks and blankets strapped onto their roofs, suggesting that these individuals were perhaps traveling for work or leisure.

The car closest to us is black, with round headlights and a spare tire mounted at the back. Its driver's side door is slightly opened, revealing a person seated inside who appears engaged in conversation with another individual outside the vehicle. The second car, parked behind it on its left, seems larger and has more luggage loaded onto its roof.

In the background, there are other vehicles visible along what looks like an open road or possibly a rural highway. Dry grasslands stretch out into the distance under a clear sky, emphasizing that this scene is taking place in a remote area away from urban settings. The overall atmosphere conveyed by this image is one of travel and exploration during hard times as indicated by the caption which mentions two families traveling for work amidst economic hardship.

This photograph holds historical significance due to its depiction of American life during the Great Depression era, offering insight into how people lived and traveled across America at that time despite challenging circumstances.

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017772042/

The image is a black and white photograph depicting two vintage cars traveling on a rural road. The car in the foreground appears to be an older model sedan with luggage racks, possibly indicating it's being used for travel or vacation purposes. In the background, another similar type of vehicle can also be seen driving away from the camera.

The landscape around them is flat and open, suggesting this may have been taken during a road trip through rural America. Telephone poles line one side of the highway, reinforcing the impression that it's located in a less densely populated area with infrastructure to support communication between cities or towns far apart. The sky above appears clear without visible clouds.

This scene likely represents an everyday moment captured by Dorothea Lange during her travels and photo documentation efforts for various projects including documenting rural American life and experiences such as the Great Depression, World War II internment camps in California, and more broadly migrant farmworkers' lives across America.

Between Tulare and Fresno on U.S. 99. Farmer from Independence, Kansas, on the road at cotton chipping time. He and his family have been in California for six months

#Tulare #Fresno #Independence #Kansas #California #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017772038/

The image depicts a man, likely from the early to mid-20th century based on his attire and style of vehicle, leaning out of an open car window. He is wearing a hat and appears cheerful or jovial as he looks directly at the camera with a wide grin showing teeth. His eyes are squinting in amusement. The man's hand rests against what seems to be a wooden steering wheel, suggesting that this photo was taken before modern cars had power steering.

The vehicle has several items on its roof rack, including blankets and other fabric materials, indicating travel or movement from one place to another. There is no clear indication of the specific location, but given the context provided by the caption, it can be inferred that he might be in California during a time when cotton picking was happening.

The overall tone of the photograph suggests a moment captured on the road while traveling between Tulare and Fresno along U.S. Route 99. The man is identified as a farmer from Independence, Kansas who had been residing in California for six months at that point. This detail provides insight into his migratory patterns or seasonal work commitments.

The black-and-white nature of the photo adds to its historical feel, further emphasizing the time period and context within which this image was taken.

Merced (vicinity), California. Migratory cotton picker on highway near Merced, California. He and his family from Independence, Kansas, have been looking for work chopping cotton

#Merced #California #Independence #Kansas #undefined #photography #DorotheaLange

https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2017771912/

The image depicts a man leaning out of the passenger side window of an older model vehicle, which appears to be used for transportation. He is wearing a wide-brimmed hat and seems focused on something outside the frame. The interior of the car shows various items piled up in the back seat area with some clothing or fabric materials visible above his head. There's also what looks like a blanket tied down at the top, possibly indicating that this vehicle serves as mobile housing for people traveling long distances.

The black and white nature of the photograph suggests it could be from an earlier time period when color photography was not widely used in everyday situations. This image captures a candid moment where we get to glimpse into someone's life on the road, likely during migratory work or travel. The man appears engaged with his surroundings but is not looking directly at the camera.

The caption provides additional context about this photograph being related to migrant cotton picking and references Merced (vicinity), California as well as Independence, Kansas. It also mentions a source where more information can be found: https://images.loener.nl/DorotheaLange/full/6495/6495b777ba25398d90c4e8f8.jpg

Between Tulare and Fresno. Two families originating from Independence, Kansas, on U.S. 99. Started out from Fresno that morning for work cotton chopping

The image is a black and white photograph depicting two vintage automobiles driving on an open road, with no visible modern-day traffic. The cars appear to be from the early 1900s based on their design features such as large front grilles, rounded fenders, and spoked wheels. Both vehicles are equipped with luggage racks or cargo carriers loaded onto top of them; one has a flatbed carrier while the other seems to have additional storage compartments. Telephone poles line both sides of the road, indicating rural surroundings without significant urban development nearby.

The image is credited as "Between Tulare and Fresno," suggesting that it was taken somewhere along U.S. Route 99 in California during a journey from Independence, Kansas for work purposes related to cotton picking. The context provided indicates these were likely farmers or their family members traveling with essential supplies.

“That guidance, which is not legally binding, is significant in an administration that has vowed to upend the #DOJ & the #FBI, which #Trump & his allies have accused of mistreating him.

“…#Legal experts say the guidance could erode guardrails that have traditionally given the #Justice Department a degree of #independence from the White House that does not exist for other executive branch agencies.”
