love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region
People who believe in an imminent Rapture/Armageddon don't have anything invested in what happens to you here on Earth. You are irrelevant to them and will be treated accordingly.
It really is fascinating how overt it now is that there are certain - really not controversial - ideas that you aren’t allowed to say on television.
Colbert posted the interview online. I do wonder if CBS and the FCC are aware of the Streisand effect? The interview has been up for 8 hours and has just over half a million views.
This is a guide for resisting Palantir. It's not a simple boycott because they don't sell direct to consumers, but we sure as hell can fight them with everything we have. psychopete1.substack.com/p/the-palant...
Sadly, ICE learned what not to do in Minnesota… they have not left… but are spreading out in disguise tricking and nabbing people before we can respond. We need a new plan….
One special Sunday every year we wait for the most Superb Owl to rise out of the burrow, fly through the air, and bring toys to all the children of the world. We always hope the Owl will come here because we have the most sincere burrow and the Owl respects sincerity. Will this be our year? #WWDITS
ICE was flawed from day one... born out of post-9/11 fear and built on policies that blurred national security with domestic control. Some systems don’t need reform. They need to be abolished.
#AbolishICE #ICEtapo #FDT
🚨Status Coup News just ended their Livestream in Minneapolis. They said that the ICE raids have NOT slowed down at all. They are documenting them daily. We cannot listen to Tom Homan when he feeds us the illusion that they are stepping back at all. We must keep the pressure HIGH on ICE.
#FUCKICE
yo, upcoming Actor's Award and Oscar winners...
...your music industry peers are teaching you a lesson or two tonight about speaking out for whats right
Once again here to tap the mic and say Texas is a gerrymandered, voter repressed state, not a "red" state. And every one of you celebrating the (significant) win in Tarrant County better not be the same people in my mentions saying to throw the whole South away. There are good people fighting.
Perhaps the most politically important thing about Zohran Mamdani is that it seems like he really, really likes New York and New Yorkers.
Open letter to our Senators:
Gentlemen, Ladies, we don't really care about ICE not getting even more funding. We don't care about more "training" and more rules they won't follow.
We want ICE de-funded. Dismantled. Gone. Driven out of our cities.
We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE.
They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.
Walz: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal government that can kill, injure, menace and kidnap its citizens off the streets or on the side of a nurse at the V.A. who died bearing witness to such government
The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.
they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.
I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness.
You could be next.
Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.
For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies
The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.
The government is saying that violence rules. That snatching foreign leaders and territories, and shooting US citizens in their cars at point blank range, is justified. That resistance is not only futile, it is dangerous. They can say these things. But they cannot force us to believe them.
"America is an oil company with an army."

Isn't it odd that the United States has enough money to suddenly run Venezuela, but not enough to run our own country?
There is always cash in the piggy bank for bombs to kill people, but never for healthcare to keep them alive.
My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.
I love him. So. Much.
After that meeting, I'm never playing poker against Zohran Mamdani.
