Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me πWeβre just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. Itβs been a roaring success. For every β¬1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got β¬1.46 back. Canβt argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."
Damn. This is amazing. Β£325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

It's hard to believe any cops could be worse than a department who ran a torture black site. But DHS is entirely unleashed and unaccountable. They will kill more people by the end of this month if not stopped.

This wasn't really a hard decision. As little faith as we have in institutions, we recognize the value of drawing visible lines in the sand. We drew ours personally a while ago, but better late than never.
May every protester be freed and may this occupation end.

This really makes it sound like a Border Patrol agent tried to kill an anti-ICE activist in Chicago and DHS lied to cover for him
06.10.2025 22:45 β π 8602 π 3061 π¬ 175 π 60Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?
The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.
At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.
