Government, councils and police: all scared to act as far right run riot Violent mobs try to intimidate with their flags, while we wonder what those in charge are doing about it

Violent mobs are intimidating communities across the region – waving flags, harassing women, and beating a man almost unconscious. Police, councils and government all look the other way. When did fear become policy?

I think I've been laughing at this for five minutes. California shouldn't model anything after Alabama, ever ever ever. 😂😂😂

Never take seriously those who ridicule low income people for having a smartphone or laptop.

“If they’re so poor how did they buy an iPhone???”

Because they’re trying to escape poverty, not the 1700s, genius. If you think basic tech access is luxury, survive a month without it.

In nazi occupied poland they paid for jews! We are there now.

This list was 1,475 long this morning.

Trump's spiritual advisor is number 1,313. He's in prison for raping a 12 year old girl. The TDS guy is number 1,381.

A country which will starve it's own children rather than hold its child rapists to account is doomed.

ICE Plans Cash Rewards for Private Bounty Hunters to Locate and Track Immigrants Companies hired by ICE would be given bundles of information on 10,000 immigrants at a time to locate — and paid cash bonuses for performance.

“Under the plan, bounty hunters may receive “monetary bonuses” depending on how successfully they track down their targets — and how many immigrants they then report to ICE.”

Or ICE could just fund the Klan directly.

The deeply unprofessional masked goons are now going to subcontract their bounties to completely unprofessional armed goons. Awesome.

Norway oil projects face stricter climate scrutiny after court ruling The case worked its way through European legal systems for nearly a decade before the ruling.

A step in the right direction for climate accountability.

Europe’s top human rights court has ruled that governments cannot ignore the full climate impact of new oil and gas projects. Norway must assess global emissions before expanding drilling.

You know what evil looks like? The orange felon hosting a Great Gatsby themed gala at his trashy private club yesterday whilst trying to end SNAP benefits and healthcare subsidies from tens of millions of Americans. Giving a convicted criminal full power was a horrible idea.

@timmiller.bsky.social takes on how Fox News ran with a totally fake story—racist AI videos pretending to be real “Black women”—and then quietly changed the headline instead of admitting they make a mistake.

Cops going aggro on Sunset near Echo Park in LA after the Dodgers Win. Shooting people with less lethals from point blank range, horses running people and press down. Literally minutes before, fireworks in the street

The crowd tonight in Norfolk, Virginia for Abigail Spanberger and Barack Obama. LET’S GO!!!

Americans trust their doctors, but doubt the system The People’s Report Card, released by Washington University in St. Louis' QuEST Center and School of Public Health, grades U.S. health care on quality, cost, confidence and leadership.

These survey findings are spot on! We Americans trust our health professionals but dislike the so-called US “healthcare system”—which prioritizes profits for hospitals & insurers over people’s health.

Universal access to healthcare—and a focus on prevention—would help make America great again.

Good question, Junior!

OBAMA: “It’s like every day is Halloween… I will admit it’s even worse than I expected — but I did warn y’all. Check the tape.”

Billboards outside US Southern Command urge troops not to 'break the law’ in Caribbean strikes “Don’t let them make you break the law,” reads a billboard along the road to U.S. Southern Command, one of several set up by veterans.

New billboards have been put up near Miami, Chicago, and Memphis, Tennessee.

Despite this week's federal court rulings requiring the Trump administration to fund SNAP, benefit reductions and delays in distribution mean that families across New Jersey still face growing uncertainty. Many who rely on SNAP are struggling to afford groceries, and food pantries are seeing unprecedented numbers of people seeking assistance.

The Republican regime is fine with starving children.
The rest of us are not.

Who is making the Big Money? It's Private Prisons, for one. The more people they hold, the longer they hold them, (and the stingier they are with food, medical care, etc) the more of our taxes they "earn". We need to find a way to make Private Prisons no longer profitable.

Sooner or later, someone is going to respond to one of these ICE goons by returning the violence and it's not going to end well -- not for the goon, not for the victim, not for any of us.

Obama: When I think back to a year ago, I remember talking to some people, who would say, this election doesn't matter all that much. That however the next president ended up being, it wasn't going to matter to them. If nothing else, the last nine months should have cured us of that idea.

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

these next few days you are going to see a lot of weaponization towards the less fortunate but remember this:

Homelessness is not a crime.

Being homeless or becoming homeless is never a choice; it is due to circumstance.

They are still human and deserve safety.

Criminals from the top down:

👉 Keystone Kash got busted jet-setting around the country at taxpayer expense, then fired the guy who didn’t cover it up by removing it from the public record.
