#Brussels police arrest #Rubio security detail supervisor after fight - Washington Examiner #Hegseth #AlcoholicAdmin

"Speaking on condition of anonymity, two sources with direct knowledge of the situation told the Washington Examiner that the supervising agent in question was behaving erratically and became irate when hotel staff refused to re-open the bar beyond its normal opening hours. When staff, including the night manager, attempted to persuade the agent to return to his room, the agent became physically aggressive. Police were then called. The agent then engaged in an altercation with numerous police officers, leading to his arrest."

Washington Examiner · Brussels police arrest Rubio security detail supervisor after hotel fightBy Tom Rogan

⚠️Attention! 🚨 On a eu l'information que mardi 8 avril de 14h à minuit la police prévoit une opération dans tous les stations metro de Saint-Gilles visant des personnes sans-papiers. C'est à la demande du bourgmestre socialiste Jean Spinette, qui cherche à harceler et enfermer des personnes précarisés maintenant que le trêve hivernal est fini. Soit attentif ce jour là et solidaire avec nos camerades sans-papiers!

⚠️انتبهوا! 🚨 تلقينا للتو معلومات تفيد بأن الشرطة تخطط، يوم الثلاثاء 8 أبريل، من الساعة الثانية ظهرًا حتى منتصف الليل، لعملية في جميع محطات مترو سان جيل تستهدف المهاجرين غير النظاميين. يأتي هذا بناءً على طلب رئيس البلدية الاشتراكي جان سبينيت، الذي يسعى لمضايقة واحتجاز الأشخاص غير النظاميين بعد انتهاء العطلة الشتوية.

كونوا منتبهين في هذا اليوم وتضامنوا مع رفاقنا غير النظاميين!

#Fabricademy bootcamp 2025
May 19→25

Don't miss this year's bootcamp in Brussels to encounter international fellows in the field of #textile, #engineering and #biology.

I am co-organizing it through the #fablab @GreenFabric and the #fabricademy team (@fabtextiles ).

A great opportunity to test Fabricademy themes and way of working through intense hands-on workshops. It will cover #biomaterials with #mycelium #fungi, #modulardesign, #machineknitting with the #kniterate machine, using the #opensourcehardware machines that we built, #etextile with thermochromic inks.

Don't miss also the #MakerFaire on the following week-end (May 26-27) with the Fabricademy exhibition of final projects and a workshop on #softrobotics.

More info on bootcamp2025.textile-academy.o.

Boosts are more than welcome!
