Calliope

A sad day for America—Mahmoud Khalil, a Columbia University activist, has been arrested by ICE, not for any crime, but for his political activism. The Trump administration claims he was involved in “pro-terrorist” activities, yet no formal charges have been filed.

I love it!!!!

(Wordplay on ‚axis of evil‘)

Legal counsel representing federal employees is now being targeted by the Trump administration. Law firms are receiving a clear message that retaliation is possible for those advocating on behalf of individuals or groups opposing the administration’s agenda.

🔥 The fire of democracy is set alight through small embers.

It takes time, but those embers add up and start a small fire.

That fire spreads, it becomes unstoppable.

I’m not sure my town could afford to switch flags if Chinese-made Russian flags become more en vogue.
They are poor as fuck, but the twatwaffle allows them be their openly terrible selves. They are so rotten they don’t care if they starve or their unwanted children suffer. Everyday evil given reign

Elon Musk shared a call from conservative political commentator Ben Shapiro urging Trump to pardon Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer convicted in the 2020 killing of George Floyd.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

What an embarrassment and disgrace.

Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"

“A desire to force U.S. military leaders to be obedient to him and not the Constitution is one of the constant themes of Trump’s military-related discourse.”

Non-violence.

The DHS will use polygraphs to question employees about communications with the media or nonprofit organizations in an effort to root out members of the resistance.

Every ten minutes here is like:
- Trump doubles student debt
- Musk now has keys to your house and is in your bathroom doing plumbing drugs
- Three planes just crashed
- Trump signs EO making women illegal
- Face-melted Nazi from Indiana Jones now in charge of CIA
- Meteor not arriving fast enough

So tired that if I went into Costco right now, I’d only spend $200

Are they planning to take our parks?

If one were to want natural resources that are protected but empty and in disrepair, one must simply pay the king?

This is way cool. Some positivity.

I’m not a scientist, but I’ve seen a lot of SciFi.

10,000 King Soopers workers are currently on strike for better pay and working conditions.

Instead of negotiating in good faith, parent company Kroger has been using scabs and prioritized $7.5B in stock buybacks.

Don't tell me they can't afford to pay a living wage.

Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Joni Ernst, etc: You’ve seen Hegseth, RFK Jr, and others give worthless assurances. You’re now seeing the US appease Putin, and DOJ guardrails crumble. Are you going to let Kash Patel use the FBI against his enemies list and further destroy the rule of law?

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!
