This is basically saying you want to reform the Klan or Hitler’s Gestapo. The fundamental reason for ICE’s existence is white supremacy.

My partner @jasoncapsaicin.bsky.social made a step by step guide on how to break up ice in your neighborhood in Minnesota. Enjoy!

I managed to wait until 5. Coffee in hand, ready for the day!

The good news is the comment below the reel stating that students are gathering signatures to try to get Club America (the turning point club at the high school) removed.

Talking With Paul Kedrosky So, about this AI thing ...

This interview has great analogies about AI. I liked this one about the data centers (and how quickly they will be useless): “a data center full of GPUs is like a warehouse full of bananas, that’s got a relatively short half life in terms of its usefulness.”

This only underscores the messaging from Mark Kelly and others about not following illegal orders. When those issuing illegal orders deny their role, surely military leadership will start to question every subsequent order.

Beautiful, poignant writing. Sometimes I hate that I, as your reader, benefit from your sadness or pain. It’s just that you express so clearly what is on my heart. Everything resonates with me.

@bsky.app Sarah Kendzior provides valuable and timely commentary. She is an amazing, smart writer. Nothing about her posts are offensive; reinstate her now!

They are trying to undermine the historical record and public memory of an actual insurrection to justify manufactured insurrections.

I almost never disagree with you, Charlotte, but supporting this resolution is not the way to condemn political violence. The so-called honoree ignited political violence, promoted it, and threatened others with it.

I Teach 22-Year-Olds. They Don’t Text Like This. Here’s why so many people are suspicious about the Charlie Kirk shooter's ‘texts.’

Really solid analysis of the supposed text messages. No way these are real.

It’s not a joke, but it’s also not US law, is it? We had elections during WW 2 (the last time US officially declared war). Does he think he can just end elections with an EO?

Didn’t watch video/interview, but how was that next question not “where was the Epstein meeting held?” Then, “who was at the Epstein meeting?” Then, “why exactly were you meeting to talk about Epstein, the pedo/sex trafficker and good friend of Donald Trump?”

Don’t you think they closed the other access points so they could get photos of “crowds” at the limited access point? It’s always about the optics of crowd size.

Go for it! Use your platform however you can!

Happy birthday! Thank you for being here!

I appreciate this, but it seems like scammers are harvesting our information within the dot gov as well.

The Fine People and the Expendable Ones Who's next?

So disappointed that they’re trying to be like all the other airlines. They used to pride themselves on being different.

From Orban to Trump, Part II Finishing my conversation with Kim Lane Scheppele

This is an excellent analysis that compares Orban’s playbook in Hungary to what DJT is doing (and how Project 2025 would have avoided the chaos).

You know how their attacks on others are projections? I’m thinking they will declare martial law and cancel the 2026 elections (and say “nobody minded when Zelenskyy did it”). That’s my cynical self, but it’s not that much of a stretch.

I stand with Ukraine!🇺🇦

I think it’s true Musk has “no formal authority”, but since when has his side-kick done anything by the book. The Felon knows he can get away with anything, and Musk knows how to do the dirty work.

Even last year, an amazing program at Cornell was stifled. It is a leadership program for women engineering students. Opponents claim the program discriminates against those who aren’t women. They either open it to everyone or lose funding.

Of course it’s a coup Miss the obvious, lose your republic

Of course it’s a coup. Miss the obvious, lose your republic.

The greed behind mining for lead and the destruction in its wake—no better analogy for what is being done to our democracy.

Who is signing their paychecks? If it’s not the US Treasury, it’s a coup from outside. If it is the US Treasury, it’s a coup from inside.

Truth.

“Ought to” is an argument with reality, which is that he “won’t” call it out or object because he owes the election to Musk. He even said so when he attributed his win in Pennsylvania to Musk.

Trump officials ask US health agencies to pause external communications, Washington Post reports The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump has instructed federal health agencies to pause all external communications, such as health advisories, weekly scientific reports, updates to websites and social media posts, the Washington Post reported on Tuesday, citing a dozen current and former officials and sources.

NEW: Trump orders federal health agencies to STOP communicating health advisories, weekly scientific reports, updates to websites, and to stop making social media posts. I said previously I was worried about the lack of reporting. Here it is. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...
