bluesky is in bed with ICE

Mubashir and his family came to the United States as refugees from Ethiopia when he was a child, and they all became naturalized citizens in 2019.

Despite being a U.S. citizen, Mubashir was targeted by ICE, assaulted, and detained. Listen to his story:

Ask yourself: If Donald Trump was intentionally trying to destroy the United States, how could you tell the difference?

Its the unfunny version of the old joke about a guy falling off a skyscraper and tells the onlooker at the 2nd story window "So far, so good!"

And now he's surrounded by synchophatic robots praying for the rapture.

It's a civil war being waged against anyone who didn't vote for the criminals.

Remember: The real freeloaders in this country are the rich — not the poor or immigrants or any other group of people vilified as scapegoats. The richest 1% evade $163 billion in taxes every year. The United States literally has yacht and private jet tax deductions. Hello?

The smirk is "I can lie to your face and get away with it every time"

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

There is a difference between owning toys for personal pleasure and owning toys because big other demands you to.

I heard of a writer who's white

Indeed. One thing about the modern Right is the perpetual conflation of being criticized/disagreed with, with being silenced, oppressed, restricted, controlled, or in this case, "hounded out of society."

It has become a serious, political problem, and FOX uses this ploy hourly.

If this doesn't motivate you to vote in the Midterms, nothing will.

Hi Senator, excuse me for jumping in, but... while I agree with you that this is really damaging, I couldn't help but notice YOU VOTED FOR THE FREAKING BILL THAT GAVE TRUMP THIS POWER (which some of us warned you not to do).

Huh, is he suggesting DEI for Republicans?

Wanna know how bad the Arizona legislator's petition forgeries were? Here's the examples from the Austin Smith indictment.

Can't find it now, but I remember a video of her chasing after David Hogg yelling at him "why won't you admit the shooting was a hoax?!"

Is “imperfect instrument” now the euphemism for pedophile?

They’re all just looting the treasury now

But the double standard looks steadily less defensible today.

Or perhaps also likely, they will just force through some legislation that makes 13 the new age of adulthood then say the whole thing was legal and no big deal really....
