Photo of 4 olympians giving a press conference. They’re all wearing white respirator masks

Olympians are masking up with N95s because they know a covid infection can derail their chances of competing.

They know it could derail their careers.

They know it could disable them.

They’re practicing self care and community care.

Give them a gold medal in public health!

End the prosecution of peaceful protestors in the UK Police have made 2700+ arrests under terrorism laws in the UK for protesting peacefully against the banning of Palestine Action. This cannot go unchallenged. The UK’s chief prosecutors must now decide...

Almost 43,000 people have signed a petition calling for UK officials to end their prosecution of peaceful protestors.

Police have made over 2700 arrests under the Terrorism Act 2000 for peacefully protesting the banning of Palestine Action in the UK.

"So you would change your position on that?"

It really does speak to how embarrassing a lot of top British Journalists/Political Pundits are that Kuenssberg thought up this gotcha & then thought it was successful before Polanski explained the difference between flying for necessity vs by choice.

This bastion of moral virtue has opinions about the Green Party.

Just remember that as they continue to attack us.

This is who they are. Mask is off.

Israeli strikes in Gaza kill at least 30 Palestinians, including several children Hospitals in Gaza said Israeli strikes killed at least 30 Palestinians including several children on Saturday, one of the highest tolls since the October ceasefire.

Anyone who tells you there is a 'ceasefire' in Gaza is gaslighting you and is an anti-Palestinian racist:

Screenshot of a BBC News article titled “‘ME and Long Covid have brought my children’s lives to a standstill’.” Below the headline is a photo of a child lying on a sofa under a red blanket with eyes closed, appearing exhausted. The caption notes Talvin, 12, is one of an estimated 1.3 million people in the UK with ME or Long COVID.

'ME and Long Covid have brought my children's lives to a standstill'

Talvin, 12, is among 1.3 million people in the UK with ME or Long COVID.

Diagnosed with ME/CFS, he later developed Long COVID at age 8 after 3 COVID infections, suffers with severe fatigue, and sleep and cognitive issues.

This new graphic from @thenerve.news could be so much bigger but we wanted to show 3 essential nodes in Peter Thiel’s sphere of influence: Silicon Valley, Washington & the UK.

In Britain, our govt is so naive about Thiel & what his company Palantir really is.

I’ve put TECHNOFASCISM in all caps because it’s a new form of power, repression & political control.

We have to understand the stakes. And that this is a whole new level of threat.

Please read & share 🙏

What’s happening in America is technofascism. It could happen here Peter Thiel's data surveillance company Palantir is powering Trump's ICE operation in the US. Carole Cadwalladr argues that the UK will be next

NEW: What’s happening in the US is TECHNOFASCISM.

It’s fascism + surveillance technologies. Palantir is playing a central role. And the UK is next in line.

The UK government didn't want you to see this report on ecosystem collapse. I'm not surprised | George Monbiot It took an FOI request to bring this national security assessment to light. For ‘doomsayers’ like us, it is the ultimate vindication, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem.
Thank you.

@chrisgpackham.bsky.social : "We find ourselves with the Trump administration, who want to 'drill baby drill'.. a clear intention to burn more fossil fuels, which goes against everything that the scientists, the climate change committee IPCC.. saying we simply can't do"

Thanks Labour for failing to mitigate for airborne transmission & tackle MAGA misinformation or bring in vaccine passports. The doing nothing approach has brought back Measles.

#GVerse #NewYork #AlexPretti
NYC right now.

Alex Pretti’s face on a billboard in Times Square.

From “healthcare hero” to target of state violence.

They want this story buried.

The city just put it on a screen the whole world can’t ignore.

"How much is enough? How many more people have to die? And to the rest of the world, don't come here, they're having the World cup here, don't come, boycott it"

A woman in Minneapolis with a message to the world.

Photos of Alex Pretti with Sara’s caption: On August 16th at approximately 10:00 pm I received a call from the ICU at the VA saying my Dad had sepsis and needed to be intubated to stay alive so Josh and I headed in. We were greeted by the kindest, most calming and warm soul who helped us understand what was happening and showed deep care for us and my Dad. He continued to show utmost patience and kindness over the next few days as my Dad remained in the ICU and we were there continually. It was Alex Pretti, the man shot today by ICE. If you see this video and don't think it's murder, I don't understand your thinking and ask you to question your heart. He was out there trying to help and protect and from the little we knew of him, it doesn't surprise me he was not afraid to be on the front lines of this horrible scene in our Minneapolis. Weeping for his family and all those at the VA who no longer get to work with him or receive his care.

My friend Sara posted this about the superb care her father received from with Alex Pretti

Absolutely heartbreaking

Post from Mac Randolph

RIP Alex Pretti,

He was my Dad’s ICU nurse. He read my dad’s final salute at the VA after he passed away. Never wanted to share this video, but his speech is very on point.

Horrified & heartbroken by the latest ICE murder in Minneapolis.

Alex Pretti was an intensive care nurse & beloved son.

Americans, please know how many millions of us here in the UK are sickened by Trump and his fascist thugs, and stand in solidarity with all of you resisting them 🇬🇧🇺🇸

Please share. 💔

A reminder: ICE is what Reform wants to introduce in the United Kingdom. This is what you are voting for if you vote Reform.

Live: Man shot and killed by federal agents in south Minneapolis this morning, police chief says A video appears to shows federal agents wrestling a man to the ground then shooting him.

The Star Tribune reports that federal agents "attempted to order local police from the scene" where a man was shot and killed by feds this morning, but Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara refused and "instructed his officers to preserve the scene."

Former French General Michel Yakovleff,

"Trump reminds me of that toxic abusive father who comes home"

"Beats his wife and rapes his children"

"And says I'm the one who brings home the money every month, I'm the reason you eat"

"That's Trump's attitude"

Today is the 35th day that a child rapist is illegally withholding the Epstein files.

Trumps loves to sue people, including the BBC, so perhaps he should be sued by everyone involved for his lies about the actions of NATO and our troops in Afghanistan.
