Willy Viviani (he/him)

What action film are you doing this in? That’s a great one!

wow -- with Trump standing behind him, a man (not sure who he is) offers this prayer: "We pray that he would be mindful of the poor and that he would be invested in the alleviation of suffering happening in the families preparing to bury their loved ones in Minneapolis."

Banezos:

It is, however, many are starting their own/joining other independent groups.

It would be nice if we could bundle subscriptions to top independent journalist groups.

I don’t mind supporting folks who are doing real work, but several separate subscriptions can add up.

Though I should have done it earlier, I just cancelled my WashPost subscription. It is no longer the news source it once was.

I love that the cancellation process is basically, "oh, you want to cancel? Don't let the door hit you on the way out." No curiosity about why. I guess they already know!

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

From this moment on, any person claiming that “we can’t tax our way out of debt” must be reminded that the oligarchy has taken more than their fair share and must repay it.

It’s not just about paying off the debt, it’s about holding these grifters to account

“The government’s arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are naked attacks on freedom of the press. Two federal courts flatly rejected prosecuting Lemon because the evidence for these vindictive and unconstitutional charges was insufficient, and Lemon has every right to document news and inform the public. Instead of accepting that humiliating defeat, the government has now doubled down. “These arrests, under bogus legal theories for obviously constitutionally protected reporting, are clear warning shots aimed at other journalists. The unmistakable message is that journalists must tread cautiously because the government is looking for any way to target them. Fort’s arrest is meant to instill the same fear in local independent journalists as big names like Lemon. “The answer to this outrageous attack is not fear or self-censorship. It’s an even stronger commitment to journalism, the truth, and the First Amendment."

"News outlets across the political spectrum need to loudly defend [independent journalists Don] Lemon’s and [Georgia] Fort’s rights. Journalists are not making themselves the story, Trump is.”

@donlemonofficial.bsky.social the admin thinks they can silence you? You just got another follow! Your voice just got louder!

I know $10 billion isn’t going to move the needle on the deficit… but Trump voters argued with me a year ago about how this dude was going to help us pay off our debt. And paying that amount of money, plus all the other money he has extorted, adds up.

Save the date! #NoKings

March 28th, everywhere.

Chuck Schumer's starting position should be as maximalist as possible -- complete abolition of ICE, resignations of Bovino, Homan, Noem and Miller, unmasking of all agents, and prosecution by state authorities of the murderers.

Don't start with what looks like a compromise half-measure.

Of all the crap happening, the image of little Liam Ramos haunts me. I can’t imagine what this child is going through right now. He must be so scared. The kidnappers who took him are soulless monsters.

Stand With Minnesota Donation Directory Stand With Minnesota is a hub for supporting, learning, and taking action to support Minnesotans impacted by ICE and federal enforcement.

Stand with Minnesota! Ways to support communities in Minnesota, including donating, contacting Congress and pressure corporations that are supporting ICE. #ICEOutforGood #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #ReininICE

Sorry to hear! Hoping the crews can get the power back on quicker than expected.

I don’t think it’s a reasonable argument to say, “you don’t understand how much pressure ICE agents are under” as cover for them shooting someone who n the back.

If they cannot handle the pressure of that job, and take care for the safety of all civilians, they need to find another job.

First they came for the first amendment, and we stayed silent. Then they came for the second amendment…

What America will read this weekend while in line at the grocery checkout:

@peoplemag.bsky.social #ICE
people.com/ice-detains-...

Deporting children with cancer.
Using a 5-year-old as bait.
Shooting moms.

ICE is beyond reform. And today the House is voting to bankroll more terror. Hell no.

Interesting thread. I like the comment about hope near the end

If you have a Ring, time to un-have a Ring.

When you are breathing out, you are no longer breathing in… you’re practically momentarily dead.

Yeah, I suspect clean water is extra

They originally said “under $3 for a meal” with a piece of chicken, broccoli, a tortilla, and “something else”

The NY Times concludes that the ICE agent who shot Renee Good was NOT hit by her car

“the visual evidence shows no indication that..Jonathan Ross, had been run over..It also establishes-millisecond by millisecond-how Mr. Ross put himself in a dangerous position near her vehicle in the first place”

I think Mayor Scott is a rising star (he is already radiant!).

What she has described isn’t a meal, it’s a snack. And I’d be pissed to pay $3 for that snack.

While ICE refuses to obey the laws of the land, they must still adhere to the laws of physics.
