    A Case Study In The Spread Of David Barton’s Christian Nationalist Disinformation | Right Wing Watch
    https://www.rightwingwatch.org/post/a-case-study-in-the-spread-of-david-bartons-christian-nationalist-disinformation/
    Recently, Warren Throckmorton launched a podcast called “Telling Jefferson Lies” that chronicles the career Christian nationalist pseudo-historian David Barton and exposes the ways in which Barton misrepresents and misuses history to promote his far-right political agenda. The podcast is centered about the new second edition of the book Throckmorton co-authored with Michael Coulter called “Getting Jefferson Right: Fact-Checking Claims About Thomas Jefferson,” which was a rebuttal to Barton’s 2012 book, “The Jefferson Lies: Exposing the Myths You’ve Always Believed About Thomas Jefferson.”

    Tom Stevenson · Rubble from Bone: Israel’s War
    https://www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/n03/tom-stevenson/rubble-from-bone
    Israeli tactics have little in common with standard counterinsurgency doctrine or rules of engagement. In the first three months​ of Israel’s attack on Gaza around 25,000 Palestinians were killed and around 60,000 wounded, 70 per cent of them women and children. Around 80 per cent of the population of Gaza has been displaced. The rate of killing has been higher than in most wars this century, sometimes reaching more than two thousand deaths a week. There have been airstrikes on ambulances, airstrikes on bakeries, airstrikes on UN schools serving as shelters. Israeli forces have killed more than 150 UN staff. International charities have been reduced to tallying daily limb amputations. While Israeli officials stick to absurd denials that there is any kind of humanitarian crisis, much of urban Gaza has been turned into an uneven igneous landscape of black-grey mounds.

    Mother of school shooter found guilty of manslaughter
    https://www.courthousenews.com/mother-of-school-shooter-found-guilty-of-manslaughter/
    A jury has found Jennifer Crumbley, mother of Michigan school shooter Ethan Crumbley, guilty on four counts of involuntary manslaughter — one count for each student her son fatally shot at Oxford High School in November 2021. The jurors received Jennifer's case shortly before 10 a.m. on Monday, after sitting through seven days of trial and hearing from 22 witnesses, including Jennifer Crumbley herself. The jurors deliberated for about a day and a half before arriving at their decision Tuesday. The verdict, as defense attorney Shannon Smith noted in her closing arguments on Friday, could have ramifications beyond Jennifer Crumbley's personal fate. Crumbley is the first parent of a school shooter to be held criminally liable for their child's actions, and the jury's findings could set a precedent for similar cases in the future. It might also impact the case of her husband, James Crumbley, who faces trial on identical manslaughter charges in March.
