Sources : A senior journalist with very good political connections, suddenly went out of job. He is a person capable of getting info from any political party over phone. He didn’t even call me. 1/n

I found this issue and called him. I asked him plainly, is he in search of a job.
At that time, @IndianPAC was recruiting furiously.

I spoke to a leader in DMK, who is very senior has some clout. 2/n

Do you know, what is the response of @IndianPAC ? They said, we don’t recruit, any one above 35. The reason they stated is, people above 35 years of age, don’t work hard.

The @IndianPAC thinks number crunching alone will elections. 3/n

People watching TN politics know very well that TN is a unique state. How would a Bihari Brahmin with prime ministerial ambitions be true to DMK, a party which flourished on anti-Brahminism.

Sources say, Prasanth Kishore, 4/n

around one year back, called all those who were active in anti CAA/NRC protests for a meet in Delhi and offered them money and asked them to work for 10 years, when a 3rd front will come to power. 4/n

Prasant Kishore is an ambitious Brahmin fool, like Mylapore Broker Gurumurthy, who thinks that none other than Brahmins have brains and all non-Brahmins carry cow dung in their head.

Only a fool would hire such a Brahmin fanatic. 5/n

If you closely watch the track record of Prasanth Kishore, you could see that he will go and approach a party, which is on a winning wave. Arvind Kejriwal, YSR, Amarinder Sing are classic examples. 6/n

Why didn’t Prasant Kishore’s strategy work in UP where he worked for Congress ? Prasant Kishore @PrashantKishor is nothing but an arrogant brahmin fool, who mints money using the weaknesses of non-Brahmin political parties. 7/n

And @mkstalin is one weak leader. Period.

If Karunanidhi was alive, would he have hired a Brahmin to decide DMK’s political future ? 12/12

Sources : Do not under estimate the power of a poisonous snake – Mylapore Broker Gurumurthy. In an order issued today, government of Tamil Nadu appoints former HC Justice S Baskaran as Chairperson of Tamil Nadu Human Rights Commission. 1/n

This S Baskaran, is a native of Thiruthuraipoondi and belongs to the community of “Mudhaliyar” He was a puppet of notorious judicial broker “Judicial Krishnamurthy”. This, S Baskaran, as long as he was a High Court Judge, 2/n

was a ‘string puppet’ of the said judicial broker ‘Judicial Krishnamurthy’.

S Baskaran is an alcoholic and also an ardent Hindu devotee (???) At the end of every Friday, he would start on a spiritual tour to worship Hindu gods, in his official car. 3/n

All logistics for his temple visits would be arranged by the said broker ‘Judicial Broker’. When Justice S.Baskaran retired, he had hundreds of “orders reserved cases”, add sources. 4/n

To quote an anecdote, when DVAC office staff ask for leave to visit temples, a senior police officer, whom this author personally know, use to say “work is worship”. 5/n

DMK President MK Stalin after presenting a detailed complaint to Governor Banwarilal Purohit, speaking to media said, the complaints that have been given to the governor had already been given to DVAC, but to no avail. Since the DVAC failed to take action, 1/n

the DMK had moved court and Madras HC had ordered a CBI investigation against CM Edappadi Palanisamy, which was subsequently stayed by HC. The Governor has the power to order a probe, and told the media that Governor said “he will take appropriate action”. 2/n

Stalin also said, DMK will take these charges to people’s court.

However, Stalin should be aware that, Banwarlial Purohit’s only interests in Tamil Nadu is to protect the interest of Brahminical forces. 3/n

Sources say, apart from, supporting Anna University VC Soorappa, an RSS stooge, to protect him from a Commission of Inquiry, Banwarilal has been pressurizing EPS, to convey the land encroached by SASTRA University, for more than three decades. 4/n

In a detailed order, Madras HC has categorically rejected SASTRA’s request to re-convey and regularize the encroachment of more than 50 acres of government land and the appeal of SASTRA to Supreme Court has also turned down. 5/n

Long THREAD :

Sources : A litigant named Dr. M. Geethanjali, approached the Madras HC, to redress her grievance wherein, she was denied an MD Opthalmology seat in PSG medical college whereas a candidate who got lesser rank than her was given the same seat. 1/n

The petitioner also alleged that while the initial fee fixed by government at the time of admission was Rs.3 lakhs, PSG college demanded 35 lakhs.

Justice Anand Venkatesh of Madras HC in an elaborate and detailed order, 2/n

went in-depth into the issue and found that, private medical colleges are making a killing in PG medical admissions using the pandemic. 3/n

The Court observed, _“The governments are grappling with the situation and the normal functioning of the society virtually came to a standstill and slowly attempts are being made to restore essential functions with sufficient safeguards. 4/n

Unfortunately, attempts are also being made to take advantage of this situation to justify certain actions. There is an attempt to put every blame on the Corona Virus even where it did not have a direct nexus to the action performed by an institution or any 5/n

Sources : BJP / @RSSOrg makes deep inroads in Tamil Nadu.

TN Government started a local channel, named “Kalvi Tholaikatchi”. When the Channel was initiated on 27 August 2019, TN CM Edappadi Palanichamy said this : “Education is like eyesight. 1/n

One Thanjai Jeeeva, an ADMK man, is a benami of TN Animal Husbandry Minister Udumalai Radhakrishnan. He is the State General Secretary of Tamil Nadu Cable TV Association. He controls the entire cable distribution business across the state. 5/n

Kamalhassan released a video supporting a fanatic sanghi – Soorappa, VC of Anna University. Why would Kamal release a video in support of Soorappa ? 2/n

One Dr Karthick Sridhar is the Vice Chairman of Indian Center for Academic Rankings and Excellence. ICARE This Karthick Sridhar, This is a Right Wing institute under the garb of “merit & excellence”. 3/n

Following the order of Commission of Inquiry against Dr Soorappa, this Karthick Sridhar took Soorappa to meet Kamal and promised funding by Mukesh Ambani. Only after this, Kamal came out in support of Soorappa. Subsequently Soorappa thanked Kamal too. 4/n

The Chairman of the Board of Governors of ICARE is one venomous sanghi named Mohandas Pai. This Mohandas Pai is funding two poisonous right wing portals which not only spew venom on minorities but also spreads fake news. The two portals are “Opindia and Swarajya” 5/n

A short story:

In Nov 2018, a man from UP’s Shamli named Saleem gave an affidavit in local court that he and his family were changing religion. News leaked in local media and became national news. I also visited him and wrote a report +

Saleem was born in Hindu Jat family and named Susheel. He was left orphaned at 8. One Mohd Sabdar picked him from streets and took him in as assistant in his transport business. Sabdar changed his name to Saleem and even got him circumcised as Islamic ritual +

When he turned 15, Sabdar got him married to Wajida. As Saleem grew independent, he left Sabdar & began to work for another transporter, a Punjabi Hindu. Susheel told me Sabdar never paid him a salary

In 2018 when he was 31, he decided to revert to his original name and faith +

Wajida supported him. Things were fine till her father Israel arrived from Jharkhand. He tried to change Saleem’s mind. When he remained adamant, Israel brainwashed Wajida into leaving him. When Saleem went for a tour, Israel quietly took Wajida and their 5 kids to Jharkhand +

Saleem immediately went to Jharkhand on his return. Israel asked him to read kalma again and serve Tablighi Jamaat for 40 days as penance. Saleem refused. He did not have Wajida’s support anymore.

On 16 Jan, he sent me a Whatsapp video saying he was ready to commit suicide +

Ever heard of Gollala Mamidada village in Andhra?
Affectionately called "Konaseema Ayodhya", this town has a famous Lord Rama temple. Set in the midst of lush greenery, the towering double Gopurams are a sight for the ages.

A thread.

The delta area of the Godavari river is called the Konaseema. This island is created as the Godavari splits into its distributaries the Vruddha Godavari, Vasishta Godavari, Gautami and Nilarevu, just below the city of Rajahmundry. Gollala Mamidada is located here

Located around 45 km from Rajamundry (and 20 kms from Kakinada), this little village is famous for the Sri Kodanda Rama Swami Temple. Kodandam is the bow of Lord Rama, and he is worshipped in AP/TG mostly as Kodanda Rama.

This isnt an ancient temple like the others around here, but relatively new.
The construction started in 1889 by two local brothers Dwarampudi Subbi Reddy and Rami Reddy donated land and built a small shrine to Lord Rama. A larger temple was constructed in 1939

The most stunning feature of this temple are the towering double Gopurams. Rising vertically to the heavens, they lord over the neighbouring hinterland, and are said to be visible for over ten kilometres.

I know the #COVID-19 numbers in India are not looking good, but here are my (not so) random thoughts on it

We have 2 options – one, rant & rail against the ‘system’ and lament how it has let us down; second, do whatever we can to avoid getting infected & if infected, minimize adverse consequences to ourselves & others. If you belong to the first, you can stop reading now

How can we avoid getting infected? There’s no magic bullet, I’m afraid. This is primarily a “stick to the basics” approach. More difficult than it sounds.

First, maintain all precautions that we know help. These include masks (whenever you are not at home and not alone), physical distancing to the extent possible, and washing hands frequently. The 3 Ws – Wear a mask, Watch your distance, Wash your hands.

Masks work, and are probably the most important precaution given our current understanding that aerosols are the predominant mechanism of spread. The best is a well-fitting N95 mask, which is now widely available & not too expensive – you could re-use them too.

Only 30% of prisoners were convicts, the study showed, Daruwala points out, among other findings.

(THREAD) Pre-election Russia collusion may take down Trump. It's equally possible the Trumps' pre- and post-election collusion with Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Israel will do it—a course of collusion also connected to the Kremlin. I explain here. I hope you'll read on and retweet.

1/ I must stress how unbelievably complex the "Grand Bargain" theory of the Trump-Russia case is—a different thing from saying it's not substantiated. It's substantiated in *almost every single particular*—it just *also* happens to be very confusing. Not byzantine—just confusing.

2/ The basics: Saudi Arabia, Israel, and the UAE all view Iran as their chief regional enemy. Iran is propped up by Russia. Therefore the Saudis, Israelis, and Emiratis all need a US government willing to find a way to get the Kremlin to *stop* supporting Iran in the Middle East.

3/ The best way to get Russia to stop supporting Iran—or reduce support—was/is to drop all sanctions on Russia over its 2014 annexation of Crimea, as that'd be worth *trillions* to the Kremlin over the next decade. Everyone knew that Clinton wouldn't do this—and that Trump would.

4/ Per the NYT, on August 3, 2016, Donald Trump Jr. met secretly at Trump Tower with a Saudi and Emirati emissary, George Nader, as well as an Israeli intelligence expert, Joel Zamel, with *significant* ties to both Israeli intelligence *and* Russian oligarchs allied with Putin.

Shocking fact: Millennial men are less likely to work than any other age and gender demographic in America.

Today, there are 500,000 young men missing from the U.S. workforce.

Research suggests video games & improved leisure tech plays a role in the problem. 👇 Thread:

Following the 2007 to 2009 recession, 25 to 34 year old men exited high school with fewer middle-skill job opportunities than years prior.

During this time, we saw an increased number of men living with parents & choosing unemployment over lower paying jobs.

It's estimated that 24M millennials live w/ their parents.

1 in 4 living in their parents’ home neither go to school nor work.

What's more surprising? 9 in 10 who lived with their parents a year ago are still living there w/ no plans to leave.

Economists are calling millennial men a lost generation.

According to economist David Dorn:

“If you get to the point where you’re turning 30, you’ve never held a real job and you don’t have a college education, then it is very hard to recover at that point.”

Economists suggest this choosiness is a generational trait.

"I’m very quick to get frustrated when people refuse to pay me what I’m worth."

I hate when I learn something new (to me) & stunning about the Jeff Epstein network (h/t MoodyKnowsNada.)

Where to begin?

So our new Secretary of State Anthony Blinken's stepfather, Samuel Pisar, was "longtime lawyer and confidant of...Robert Maxwell," Ghislaine Maxwell's Dad.

"Pisar was one of the last people to speak to Maxwell, by phone, probably an hour before the chairman of Mirror Group Newspapers fell off his luxury yacht the Lady Ghislaine on 5 November, 1991." https://t.co/DAEgchNyTP

OK, so that's just a coincidence. Moving on, Anthony Blinken "attended the prestigious Dalton School in New York City"...wait, what? https://t.co/DnE6AvHmJg

I'm not going to even mention that Blinken's stepdad Sam Pisar's name was in Epstein's "black book."

Lots of names in that book. I mean, for example, Cuomo, Trump, Clinton, Prince Andrew, Bill Cosby, Woody Allen - all in that book, and their reputations are spotless.

❤✈️🌎 2 years ago today @JamesIvings and I sold all our belongings and left the UK to travel for a year. We've never been happier and we have no plans to ever return there 🙂

Thread 👇

Since then we've started a remote web dev company @SquarecatWebDev and been lucky enough to have completed several freelance projects 💻 that have kept us on the road.

In the last few months we've become a huge part of this amazing new Maker community and have found so many new friends from @makerskitchen, @women_make_ and several others! 🥰

We love travelling together (even if I'm only a glorified laptop watcher 😒) but we're both much happier being able to share our ideas outside of our own little bubble and our products have benefitted too!

Here's to another year of nomading with my favourite person and to the Maker community continuing to grow with our help! Maybe one day we'll all get to meet each other ✌️ 💛
