The corporate propaganda machine colluding with the Trump propaganda machine to lie to the American people about Thanksgiving.

O'DONNELL: Americans have been watching videos of ICE tackling a young mother, tear gas being used in a Chicago residential neighborhood, and the smashing of car windows. Have some of these raids gone too far?

TRUMP: No. I think they haven't gone far enough.

Every authoritarian action Trump is taking must be understood against the backdrop of his declining popularity.

He feigns strength, but he's operating from a place of weakness.

Remember this.

Ahead of the 1st shutdown of US food aid to hungry Americans in 60 years, some of the 200,000 Little Free Library locations are converting into food pantries. Thanks @littlefreelibrary.bsky.social

Supreme Court blesses racial profiling by ICE The conservative justices don't explain a decision that green lights detaining people for how they look.

"Today’s decision sets a course for the United States to become a country where masked officers pluck people from streets and businesses because of how they look."

Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day.

Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day.

It's not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Dear JD. You also have rich people yelling at you at restaurants and theatres. Maybe there’s a different problem.

I remember interviews with immigrants who supported Trump where they kept insisting β€œhe just wants to get rid of ILLEGAL immigrants!”

What is happening would be as clear as day if you saw it in another country. No one abroad is confused; no one reading (accurate) history in the future will have any trouble understanding what is happening.

Two weeks have passed since a Florida Highway Patrol officer arrested the Honduran immigrant client of Magdalena Cuprys of Cuprys & Associates. β€œHe was stopped at a weigh station in Tampa because he owns a construction company, and he was required to stop for his truck to be weighed,” Cuprys told me. β€œThe client had a valid Florida driver’s license. The patrol officer called Customs and Border Protection on him. The client called me, and the officer took the phone from him and spoke with me.”

She asked why CBP was alerted. β€œI was advised that the client looked Hispanic, had a Hispanic name, and now they are collaborating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement and CBP, and their orders are to call CBP any time they encounter anyone they suspect is an immigrant,” said Cuprys. β€œI asked if they would have followed the same process if it had been me driving, and the response was it depends if you look Hispanic.”

I don't think you can go wrong if you have compassion for ordinary people and skepticism/hostility towards the powerful, no matter what anyone involved believes

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:

A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

So now you can be arrested without a warrant for crimes that they have no proof of, and you will be disappeared into a concentration camp outside of the reach of the judicial system…
The Republicans are setting up a system of ethnic cleansing and genocide at an industrial scale

This President Exposed Many of My White Christian Friends This President has been many things since descending an escalator a decade ago: a national embarrassment, a global punchline, an environmental disaster, a divider of people, a prolific murderer of the...

Then he arrived a decade ago: someone who gave them what they needed to finally abandon the performance completely: permission to be horrible; someone who erased any semblance of decorum, any expectation of decency, any level of accountability.

This sounds dumb but mine was in a similar state and I did the pull the power cord thing and when it rebooted it had a stuck update which then completed.
