🧵 In response to my posts on X today, DOJ 1) unredacted an FBI file that LABELS two individuals as co-conspirators 2) unredacted a file that lists several men who might be implicated 3) tacitly admitted that Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem was the sender of the torture video

Thomas Massie is cooking right now and explicitly states that UAE Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem was sending torture videos to Epstein

This is just part of patrol. ICE threatens you, points guns at you, brutalizes or kills someone in front of you. Every day it's somebody new in our circle. We gather around them while they work through the stress and fear and then, to the person, they go back out.

My friends are so insanely brave.

They Wanted a University Without Cancel Culture. Then Dissenters Were Ousted. Inside the civil war at the anti-woke university backed by Bari Weiss.

The Bari Weiss founded UATX, where "cancel culture" was banned imploded over the imposition of ideological litmus tests on affiliates by its oligarch benefactors, such as a bar on "hating the rich."

loving the new Big K.R.I.T. album, plenty of catchy and vibey trap beats with some excellent rapping from K.R.I.T.!

So, I switched from Spotify to Apple Music (for several reasons) mid-year, thus no single wrapped, but courtesy of stats.fm here's my top 10 songs for the year across both platforms

been listening to the new Big K.R.I.T. album, it's a lot of fun so far

Of course it is. The current admin has wholeheartedly embraced AI as an official state tool of disinformation and flooding the zone.

A screenshotted Bluesky post draft which is over the character limit, reading: "I might just be a random trans woman whose feed brought me this post with no prior context but I wanna say I'm very, very sorry for the harassment, misgendering and transphobia you've been getting over this, nothing justifies that sort of behavior, but sadly far too many people see trans women as an acceptable target for such abuse. I hate the fact that so many who are supposedly part of our communities and supposedly advocating for our rights feel comfortable treating you this way, and I feel awful that you've had to endure this level of harassment and transphobic abuse. You're still trans and still a woman no matter what any of those people say, and I hope you don't take the hate to heart because you seem like an awesome and bright person and I'd hate for these lonely terminally online weirdos to make you doubt yourself."

We're witnessing the culminating rot of shareholder capitalism in real time.

Some of the most powerful corporations in America have sided with an authoritarian regime in order to protect their short term profits — the fundamental rights of everyone else be damned.

Feds detain dozens of immigrants in 'massive' South Shore apartment building raid in Chicago • The TRiiBE An estimated 40 people were taken by federal agents in the course of the overnight raid in the predominately-Black neighborhood.

NEW — An estimated 40 people were taken by federal agents in an overnight raid in South Shore, a predominantly-Black neighborhood on Chicago’s South Side.

A couple who live nearby said they were shocked to see the enormous militarized raid in their community.

Just finished my #firstlisten of Isaiah Rashad's The Sun's Tirade, an amazing, lowkey, vibey, yet introspective album with stunning highlights like Wat's Wrong, Free Lunch, 4r Da Squaw, Silkk da Shocka, and Find a Topic (homies begged).

Both great albums but summertime 06 is more banger-heavy and a more exciting listen on the whole

Love to NxWorries but MadGibbs easily, we're talking about Pinata *and* Bandana here, two of the best hip hop albums of their respective years

Care For Me is amazing and Saba's one of my favourite modern-day storytellers but JID's unparalleled in that lane imo, he's an easy GOAT in my mind

very close but personally Sampha gets my vote 9 times out of 10, both very talented

Love both albums but personally summertime '06 is the more exciting front to back listen despite dark times having more highlights overall

Here's a few albums I've been diving into lately:
Pusha T - It's Almost Dry
Twenty One Pilots - Breach
Paramore - Riot!
Earl Sweatshirt - Live Laugh Love

Hey y'all! I've been very busy moving cities and getting settled in this past month or so, but now I'm back on my album listening grind! I've got an updated 12x12 #topster coming soon, plus probably some written/video(!) album reviews in the coming weeks!

It's not even worth mentioning that these Korean workers are here legally, ICE is just torturing any non-white person they can get their hands on

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Their waists and hands were tied together, forcing them to bend down and lick water to drink. The unscreened bathrooms contained only a single sheet to cover their lower bodies. Sunlight barely penetrated through a fist-sized hole, and they were only allowed access to the small yard for two hours. Detained by US immigration authorities for eight days, the workers and their families expressed shock, describing human rights violations and absurdities they could not have imagined as ordinary Koreans living in 2025.

korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

The US president trafficked & raped underage girls, the evidence is overwhelming, everyone knows it, and this country's elites & institutions are so broken, so insular, so decadent that we can't even bring ourselves to state it clearly, much less do anything about it.

Contemptible & pathetic.

It’s really good to see the ABC reporting using ‘child’ and ‘cell’. Too often reporting describes children as ‘young people’ and prison cells as ‘detention facilities’. Across Australia governments are putting children, alone, in prison cells. It must stop. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

Detainee Dies at Rikers, the Fifth Fatality in 2 Weeks in N.Y.C. Lockups

Last night, yet another person died on Rikers Island — the fifth New Yorker to lose their life in City custody within the last two weeks and the 13th this year.

These deaths are a result of Eric Adams' failure to reckon with the crisis of violence and neglect in our jails.

As kids return to school, another mass shooting has stolen young lives.

Children shouldn’t fear their classrooms. Teachers shouldn’t risk their lives. Parents shouldn’t wonder if their kids will come home.

We are the only country with more guns than people—and this is the devastating result.

America Tips Into Fascism Today is different than before.

The precise moment when and where in recent weeks America crossed that invisible line from democracy into authoritarianism can and will be debated by future historians, but it’s clear that the line itself has been crossed. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/america-ti...

This is so important…

Sharon has been tracking license plates on cars driven by ICE agents, and she’s finding they don’t match the vehicles.

In other words, ICE is using secret, illegal tactics—just like we suspected.

REMINDER: the DMV is not a federal agency.
