The Real KT

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.

Nobel Peace Prize, my ass.

They just walk right up to the point and step over it smh

A titan of vaccine development sees his field’s achievements slip away Stanley Plotkin, the 93-year-old "godfather of vaccines," is watching his field’s achievements slip away.

“In a pair of recent interviews with STAT, Plotkin expressed dismay at seeing the achievements of his career & his field slip away. He knows what lies ahead…
“All I can say is that I’m beginning to regret having lived so long —because we’re going downhill,” Plotkin said” @jackiantonovich.bsky.social

Tonight our senile CIC will be up past his bedtime trying to read off a teleprompter. For two hours. I feel sorry for the folks whose job it is to sit there and listen.

This is Wiley. He has never seen snow before and wants to make sure he gets a real good look at it. For science. 12/10 (IG: smileywileydog)

I thought it might look more like a scene from Idiocracy

The Venn diagram of American Nazis and pedophiles is a circle.

The US Immigration Industrial Complex is a Threat to Everyone If President Dwight D. Eisenhower were alive today, he very well may warn of the ever-growing immigration industrial complex.

"US immigration enforcement has evolved into a rapidly growing multi-billion-dollar industry in which profitability increasingly dictates policy and enforcement priorities."

With the winter Olympics starting today in Italy, US athletes are being asked (by foreign journalists) how they feel about what ICE is doing.

Short answer, they are not happy and are ashamed as we are.

I could watch this on loop. 😂😂

Cool!

Maryland Should Fight Trump’s Election Rigging Scheme While Trump works to rig the rules in his favor, Maryland is one of the few states where Democratic elected officials can fight back.

In Maryland? Send an email urging your electeds to to hold a vote for the newly proposed congressional map that will counteract MAGA Republican efforts to avoid accountability in the midterms: act.standupamerica.com/letters/ads-...

So the school let them take a child from them and use him to lure the parents out for deportation?

SEEING IS BELIEVING

DHS claims the car being chased rammed the ICE vehicle. The video shows the opposite.

📌 A father and son, a US citizen, are chased. The teen is beaten and seriously injured. The father is deported.

DHS lied. The video tells the truth. Excellent reporting by Antonia Hylton.

Where reality and incompetence collide. The Saudi line.

Mr.Smith Goes To Washington......

I have blocked them. You should too.

Take a break. Soothe your soul.

t's a cruel jest to say to a bootless man that he ought to lift himself by his bootstraps. — Rev Martin Luther King Jr.

The election was equal parts litmus and intelligence testing. 70 million people failed.

They’re going after people for being brown and Black, going after U.S. citizens, going after people who’ve done nothing wrong—then claiming it’s about ‘the worst of the worst.’ That’s theater designed to look like law enforcement while it eliminates an entire category of people. 🔄

Emphasizing the efficacy of peaceful protest just reminds folks that they will absolutely kill anyone who doesn’t follow their arbitrary protest rules proving their control over us.

Exactly

The purpose of ICE Agents in Our Streets us not to make you safer. It is to make you fearful and obedient. It is in the playbook of an Authoritarian Regime.
Do You Agree?

No one wants us to invade. Impeach, remove, incarcerate. Stop the madness

They likely don’t have the will to stand firm but call to shame them anyway
