One of my favourite sides of politics/media.

There is ZERO excuse for joining the USA military.

Being in poverty doesn’t give you the right to go participate in the mass murder of brown folks.

And this includes non-combat military members too. Their entire job revolves around supporting the combat that is happening.

Reform win a seat: The true Volk have spoken and we all must listen.

Greens win a seat: Early reports that Muslims may have ‘voted’ (an ancient Islamic practice designed to steal elections). How severely should the franchise be limited in response?

Shut up

*of course* one of the first responses to this was a finger-wag about him not wearing a helmet

Cyclists and pedestrians waiting at their respective crossride and crosswalk on a red light. Towards the top left, one can see a sign banning right turns on red.

As people outside of cars, we’ve all been at the receiving end of right turns on red. How many near misses have you experienced or witnessed as a result? Yet City staff recommends against a blanket ban of right on reds.

Oppose their recommendation. Take action now! 👇

Unfortunately the reality is that cops have a history of killing people by dropping them off in inhospitable places. In Canada it’s called a “starlight tour” when cops detain an Indigenous person and then drop them off miles from home in the wilderness, sometimes causing them to freeze to death

This local Wolfdog joined an Olympic ski event and triggered the finish-line camera. This is Nazgul. He snuck into a cross-country skiing sprint this morning and raced the homestretch with some competitors before being escorted home. 14/10 someone get him a medal

the true strat is treating cycling as an enjoyable way to get around. that means learning to cycle at walking speed to be able to use the sidewalks safely while still pissing people off

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for comment….

Officers responding to a planned snowball fight in Washington Square Park were struck by members of the crowd. The NYPD commissioner described the incident as "illegal" and said authorities are investigating.

I’m sitting at a table on the Fox 32 debate stage holding my hand high in the air. My opponents, Daniel Biss and Laura Fine, are talking to each other. The chyron reads, “SUPPORT FOR PALESTINE”

The Rookie itself was a huge win for the humanization of the US police, who are all jackbooted thugs, and anyone who was involved in this from Dropout is only letting the cops take a victory lap. Copaganda made to normalize the evils of policing to woke nerd types.

Hasan reacts to Kat Abughazaleh owning Laura Fine in the IL-9 debate

Kat Abughazaleh on ICE in IL-9 debate

"We need to fully abolish and prosecute ICE. We need to repeal the Patriot Act. We need to lift refugee caps.

And we need to offer complete amnesty and citizenship to any immigrant here who has not committed a violent crime."

Kat Abughazaleh makes an argument that Biden and Trump conflate Hamas with all Palestinians.

Kat Abughazaleh: "This is the exact type of hypocrisy that people are sick of in politics. Over and over again, the lying the bickering over who likes AIPAC more"

Kat Abughazaleh: "We need to, first off abolish and prosecute ICE and DHS and we return DHS' responsibilities to Departments of Justice, State, of Treasury, of Transportation. All of these responsibilities that were taken from those departments... We need to repeal the Patriot Act."

Kat Abughazaleh: "Last night at the SOTU would they [elected Democrats] have listened to Hakeem Jeffries and watched or stood aside or gotten kicked out like Al Green did?"

Kat Abughazaleh: "Democrats are still operating as if the only levers of power are legislation and votes and conversations behind closed doors. We need to talk seriously about general strikes about breaking quorum about exploiting parliamentary procedure."

Here is a thread of Kat highlights from the FOX32 IL-9 Democratic debate.
Kat Abughazaleh: "I do want to issue a little correction. As much as I respect the term of influencer, I'm a researcher and journalist."

Dispatches from MN: it's getting really hard, guys. The media has left, the donations are drying up, and ICE is still here kidnapping people. It's hard not to be resentful that other people have the option of setting this aside for.other things.
