Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

Every American needs to watch this:

this isn't me by the way!

Sight in San Francisco (from a friend)

Canada’s 4th largest City, and Nation’s capital, passed a major suite of zoning reforms today including;
🚗eliminating most parking requirements,
🏠allowing 4-units on all serviced residential lots,
🏬up to 6-floors on busy streets, &
🥐accessory commercial uses allowed in more neighborhoods.

📍Ottawa

This is the way, make “ok, abolish only ICE” the moderate position.

Quinn Meinerz sharing a critical post about ICE

Haven’t seen many athletes comment on the news in Minneapolis outside of Haliburton, but here’s two time All/Pro Broncos guard Quinn Meinerz, who takes the field in an hour:

Spencer Strider of the Atlanta Braves posting the famous Boston Massacre etching to his Instagram stories

Spencer Strider knows what time it is.

Spoiler alert: DHS lied about the entire interaction

The moment the (most recent) person was gunned down by ICE, he had his hands by his side while on the ground. This is an execution. When this is over, and it will be, ICE should be forced to emigrate to foreign lands like the Nazis went into hiding

ICE is executing protesters the right way.

I am trying not to post on these events in this state of mind but: I hope people understand what the observers are doing is brave and dangerous.

Re: Jung Ho Lee: Boras has an incentive to play it all down as a harmless "paperwork issue" but I find it telling that Pelosi's office got involved. And it's not like our fucking out-of-control Border Patrol is entitled to the benefit of the doubt.

What seems like a disproportionately large number of Venezuelans signing with the only MLB team in Canada. Why is anyone's guess.

I will not be because it would be mostly cursing at the officials and yelling, "Come on, Drake!."

LFG!

🔥 From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social : “This is nuts. What the fuck is going on? I’ve never protested in my life… they tell you it’s immigrants — it’s fucking anybody. They’re just trying to scare people. I’m not paid to be here. I have to work in the morning. This is wrong.”

SHUT UP KIRK HERBSTREIT

Matt Walsh tweeted last year: "We've spent the last 25 years bringing "freedom" and "democracy" to countries around the globe while our own country has been systematically invaded and now our largest cities are run by foreigners and communists. If you want to know why I'm so avowedly non-interventionist, this is why." Then he tweeted today: ""This is a war for oil!!!!!" First of all, the "war" lasted like 90 minutes. Second, going to war to secure vital resources for your own people is totally legitimate. Why should we allow some third world communist shithole to control trillions of dollars worth of oil?"

Laura Loomer tweeted last year: "I’m America First, I don’t support “Regime Change”. I went on @Bannons_WarRoom to talk about Chinese aggression in Venezuela and why we need to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a foreign Islamic terrorist organization." Then she tweeted yesterday: "Maduro has arrived at the DEA office in Manhattan. He was transported in an armored motorcade after being transported in a blindfold via helicopter & then by plane to New York after his compound in Caracas was raided by US Special Forces. Proud to be an American today! USA 🇺🇸"

Catturd tweeted last year: "Name one U.S. inspired regime change that hasn’t ended in absolute disaster." Then he tweeted yesterday: "Venezuela is now more free than New York City."

Will Chamberlain tweeted last year: "The Republican Party is no longer the party of regime change and endless wars If you want to be its standard-bearer that is a non-negotiable position" Then he tweeted yesterday: "I can think of few better uses of my tax dollars than black-bagging the head of a foreign narco-trafficking organization that enriches itself by addicting and poisoning my fellow Americans"

amazing how the entire machine can pivot within 24 hours. no need to slowly upsell the argument; just issue new marching orders

NYT provides no evidence here, probably because the claim is flatly untrue. See eg recent Pew data, or many posts on the subject from @gelliottmorris.com this year

The CEO of Feeding America's salary for this year was $1,113,502. Pop Base • @PopBase • 1d Taylor Swift has made a $1 MILLION donation to Feeding America, the charity reveals.

Elon Musk is worth more than anyone and the dismantling of USAID programs caused the deaths of over 600,000 people, two-thirds of whom are children, but Katie Miller still sleeps with him

TPUSA having a speaker named full necky is kind of in bad taste, no?
