165 Graves. For 165 little girls. At a a school we bombed.

Pedo in chief: Little girls. If we can't fuck 'em, then we bomb 'em.

I detest this man with every fiber of my being.

Graves.

165 graves.

Each for a little girl killed by the Israeli-American strike that targeted a school on the first day of the Iran War.

Lower and middle class consumers spend a far higher percentage of disposable income buying basic items. This isn't hard to understand, but our USTR doesn't seem to.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call β€œsymbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Everything they learned in Minnesota they’re applying in Maine from day one. They started off doing fast-moving snatch and grabs on the street, recording and using facial id on observers, and threatening observers directly. They’ll do it all where you live too.

I mean even the fucking White House is backtracking (however slightly). If Dems EVER had a moment to get their messaging right... it's now. Executing US citizens and kidnapping children is not law enforcement.

One human rights observer in Maine said agents followed her home, blocked off her street, and came to her door to say they know where she lives. Her children are now staying elsewhere, to keep them safe.

Greg Bovino Loses His Job The Border Patrol chief has been ousted from his role as β€œcommander at large,” and will return to El Centro.

(The Atlantic) By Nick Miroff (excellent reporter) Greg Bovino will not only leave Minneapolis but also be fired and let go from his job. Possibly, he will retire, but no job in Minneapolis. Waiting now to see if Noem weathers the storm. Stay tuned.

IMMORAL…

This drawing was made by one of the 5 year old El Gamal twins. It shows children behind bars with the caption, β€œI’m 5 years old.”

An immigration judge denied them bond, citing β€œinsufficient assets.” These children could remain in detention for years while their case is appealed.

We dedicated much of tonight's program to an in-depth look at what Colorado is doing to prevent - and prepare for - President Trump's violent crackdown by federal forces potentially coming to Colorado. This is a thread of those reports.

DHS funding bill faces new Senate hurdles after another person killed in Minneapolis Some Democrats who voted for recent funding bills said they'll vote against any DHS bill without restrictions on enforcement operations. The deadline to avert a shutdown is Friday.

YOUR PHONE CALLS TO THE SENATE ARE WORKING. KEEP CALLING.

202–224-3121

Three Democrats who previously broke with the party and voted with the GOP are now saying they will not vote for the bill. That’s enough for the bill to be unpassable right now.

Several streets in Minneapolis have been barricaded throughout the day by civilian community defenders to keep Trump's paramilitary ICE forces out of their neighbourhoods. #3E #GoodVsEvil

He died exercising his First Amendment rights. He was a lawful gun owner. Anyone with eyes can see he was holding nothing more than a phone. He was executed while restrained by five men. These are crimes against humanity.

Hong Kong 2019. I find it ironic that even while tankies continue to maintain the Hong Kong protests were CIA-led, etc., (other) Americans continue to be inspired by Hong Kong protestor methods for dealing with tear gas, etc.

Not a surprise given that they ignore the courts constantly when they feel like it. Expect this to go to the Supremes and if the same finding, then the test will be to see if they are STUPID again and refuse to let the files be released.

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.

It’s quite likely that being called a β€œfucking bitch” is one of the last things a dying Renee Good ever heard.

I demand leaders who are as filled with pure, diamond-hard rage over this as I am.

I believe this is absolutely not asking for too much.
