every profile of a DOGE boy should include the number of people they’re responsible for killing

It's disorienting living in the Wile E. Coyote portion of a country's life cycle. We ran off the cliff but haven't plummeted down yet. We're just now starting to hold up the big YIKES sign

THIS is what courage looks like.Today, striking farmworkers bravely stood in front of cameras, the community, and the press, risking their jobs, safety, and future. To speak the truth. About the stolen wages. About the years of being unheard.
This is a movement. And today was a turning point.

If you refuse to endorse the overwhelmingly popular Democratic nominee for mayor of America's largest city, you should not be leading Democrats in the U.S. House

listening to eric adams try to pronounce intifada

What am I supposed to do? Quit my job at the fascism factory or use the high profile I’ve gained to make a living independently? I don’t know. Hard decision

It's been a month of ICE/DHS just rampaging through the county. They're popping up in suburbs and dense Downtown areas, with no impunity, even when they're getting into car crashes or aiming weapons at people. And the city and county governments seem unable to do anything to stop the reign of terror

Shylock is a slur. It means Jewish bankers who fleece people for high interest. Trump knows it. He’s referred to Jews using this slur more than once. Where are all the people that love to shout antisemitism on both sides of the aisle? Nowhere. Cause they don’t actually fucking care about Jews.

Truly imagine if Mamdani had used the word “Shylock.”

It would have quite literally destroyed his career and every org and leader calling him out would be making this into a month long news cycle.

Trump? Hardly a peep.

When you accept antisemitism from the president, you aren’t fighting it.

One thing I have not seen much grappling with: the Trump Administration has acted illegally with respect to the National Guard & Marines in LA plus the whole parade nonsense is a federal show of power, but cops ostensibly controlled by local governments in blue cities attacked protestors yesterday.

Trump didn’t order CMPD to pepper spray protestors in Charlotte, Trump’s Marines didn’t open up with tear gas in LA, Trump didn’t tell cops in Savannah to detain a protestor for wearing a medical mask. It’s worth asking why electeds in those heavily blue places won’t answer for any of that.

People will tell you that they view property destruction as equivalent to violence against a person, but that's not true. They think property destruction is worse

LAPD once again completely unhinged and shooting people in the streets of downtown Los Angeles. @mayor.lacity.gov has declared war on her constituents.

These are profoundly evil people who should not be tolerated in any civil society

If you like Andor there’s only one other thing in Star Wars that compares: Michael Clayton.

How we got here:

*Project 2025 proposes abortion pill restrictions
*RFK says Trump asked him to review it
*FDA head says he’s open to new data
*EPPC, P25 advisor, releases flawed report
*Josh Hawley—whose wife works for another P25 advisor—writes letter, intros bill
.*Hawley presses RFK in hearing

I think mine is the same or similar model, the body's all a crazy wood-composite but it sounds and plays GREAT!

They arrived at the United States border from around the world, hoping to seek asylum.

Instead, they were detained, shackled and flown by the U.S. military to a faraway country, Panama.

Our exclusive look at a new front in Pres. Trump’s immigration crackdown:

I suppose the only way this could not turn out well is if somehow the Trump Administration is lying for some reason about something, or may be intent on using the law targeting corporate mergers in some nefarious, evil way, like as leverage over vast media companies, for instance. It seems unlikely.

Here's a good rule I go by. If it seems like the Trump Administration is doing something good, you need to check it again, because they are actually doing something evil which you missed. This will be true 100% of the time with no margin of error.

I know we can't advocate for "that thing" anywhere, but oops, there is literally only one appropriate and sufficient response that would have protected the community against this piece of shit.

It's galling that no one there had the integrity to stand with those parents and their poor kid.

That's encouraging to hear. I'm glad people showed up!

Don't reply to me about how these parades will build the "resistance."
Clearly, the pink pussy hats blocked bloodflow to many people's brains over these past 8 years.
If you're not organizing or mobilizing anyone, you're not building a movement: you're just holding a mediocre block party.

And if you go to any of these marches:
DON'T BRING YOUR FUCKIN SMARTPHONE
DON'T FORGET TO WEAR A FUCKIN MASK
DON'T GIVE ANYBODY YOUR CONTACT INFO - if anyone claims to be from an organization and wants to stay in touch, you let them hand you paper or give you their email/web address

WARNING: The so-called "50501 protests" are the products of a PAC and a Democrat consultant, not a movement. And it's NOT the group "Our Revolution," though they're clearly aping the style, branding, and design of that organization.

I'm not saying to beware: just be wary and stay aware.

Usually these guys need thousands of words to write something something so intellectually and/or morally bankrupt that it signals you should never take anything they say seriously, so this is a quantum leap in efficiency for them.

We simply do not have the power or water for this bullshit.

Thanks so much for these links!

Hi! Do you have something I can read about this? I mean, secrecy among government agencies isn't exactly new here - but banning public health agencies from even reporting out infectious disease statistics is certainly a step.

Trump officials ask US health agencies to pause external communications, Washington Post reports The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump has instructed federal health agencies to pause all external communications, such as health advisories, weekly scientific reports, updates to websites and social media posts, the Washington Post reported on Tuesday, citing a dozen current and former officials and sources.

Sorry but it looks like if this goes into effect, reporting of all public health data including COVID, wastewater testing results, etc. would all stop.
And no reporting out any bird flu infection or testing data until further notice.
