Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

How Ukraine Turned the Tables on Russia Russia assumed time was on its side, but a new Ukrainian strategy is yielding surprising results.

"Despite Russia’s demographic advantage, its efforts to envelop Ukraine’s formidable fortress belt have had little success. ... The key to keeping the Russians at bay lies in finding better ways to compensate for Ukraine’s desperate shortage of manpower."

Gift link.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

yes esp when there is NO accountability for their actions so far...

If you were determined to devastate places like the Arkansas Delta, where I grew up, you'd be hard pressed to come up with a more destructive set of policies. It's soybeans and rice as far as the eye can see. It's not an incidental fraction of the local economy, it is the entire foundation of it.

This image was posted on X today by a Chicago Tribune reporter. Trump’s government has declared war on the American people — or some of them, based on race.

It’s such Brit thinking - peple should be border guards for the love of the game!

ICE is made up of men who have failed the human test and have nothing of value to offer this nation.

Adults with decency and options and possibilities don’t do this shit.

Your daily reminder. You have a sexual predator in the WH.

Greta Thunberg On Her Detention: I'm "Not The Story" — It's Israel Violating International Humanitarian Law “I could talk for a very, very long time about our mistreatment and abuses in our imprisonment. Trust me. But that is not the story.”

Greta Thunberg, deported to Greece, says the targeting of the Sumud Flotilla is "not the story" @teenvogue.com — instead, she says:

"Israel once again violated international humanitarian law by preventing aid from getting into Gaza while people are being starved.”

Thank goodness planes can just wing it.

Turns out voters will in fact start to find it weird when you base your entire campaign around attacking trans people

Refreshing to hear this true statement from someone in power. It’s the main key to understanding what’s going on.

I used to visit the USA quite regularly. It's just a 10 minute trip which we'd take for restaurants, sporting events, concerts, shopping or other forms of entertainment. I'd estimate several thousands of dollars per year for decades. Not any more.

I think I've found the new blue-white/black-gold dress illusion! Every time I see US or British flag-themed clothing on a person, all the blue and white disappears, and they just look like a big, red flag! Total mindf*ck! 🤯
