We don't hate democrats enough

Attorney Eric Lee says that Democrats are going to use this situation for electoral purposes* - remember that it's an election year now - and then hen turn away from it.
He's 100% correct. Dems are equally to blame. This detention center was built during Obama's presidency.
* fundraising & votes

2 main reasons:
1) They want people not to realise that it's just ONE, BIG club. ("And you and I ain't invited!" ~ George Carlin)
2) They want to claim that they're the LESSER of 2 evils when they do really evil shit.
He should've got lumped up!

Together, we stop Reform.
Together, we win Gorton & Denton.

If one extended family was killed in Britain, it'd be the crime of our century.
Our population is 69 million.
In Gaza, Israel exterminated more than 2,700 extended families.
Their pre-genocide population was 2.2 million.
Don't forget Gaza ๐
Unlike Labour and Reform, I think Britainโs foreign policy should be decided by Britain, not the United States.
My piece for @newstatesman1913.bsky.social on the need for an independent foreign policy.

A few of them have followed me, but if I see "fella" in someone's bsky bio - or a ๐บ๐ฆ WITHOUT a ๐ต๐ธ - I don't follow back.
If they put me on a circular-firing-squad list, that's OK by me.
that standing up for Ukrainians (White Europeans) without criticising a full-blown GENOCIDE of Palestinians (Brown Asians) is pretty fucking racist.
They also hate allegations that Zelenskyy is a fascist (certainly a fan of Netanyahu) & that many Ukrainians volunteer to PARTICIPATE in the genocide.
@c0mm13ba5tard.bsky.social has restricted replies, so I couldn't answer you on their thread.
NAFO stands for the North Atlantic Fella Organization (that much you'll already know) and they concentrate pretty much on supporting Ukraine (on-line).
They go hard on anyone who points out [to be cont.๐]
detention centers dont magically appear overnight. 90% of ICE detainees are held in for-profit prisons owned by corporations like geo group and corecivic. these companies owe their wealth to bipartisan subsidies going back to the 1994 crime bill under clinton

The Justifications For War With Iran Keep Changing
First it's nukes, then it's conventional missiles, then it's protesters, now it's back to nukes again. Kinda seems like war with Iran is itself the objective, and they're just making up excuses to get there.

A new study on the Gaza genocide should shock you:

Your water bills are going up, again.
Why? Because private companies think you should pay the price for their negligence and greed.
Itโs time to end the privatisation rip-off and bring water back into public ownership, now!
And by "work constructively with Governor Walz", I'm guessing that you approve of his idea to have ICE terrorize families by breaking down their doors in the middle of the night and hauling them away WITHOUT witnesses?
You know, like the SS & Gestapo did in Nazi Germany!

You, @barackobama.bsky.social, should have the common decency to admit your part in feeding this monster and humbly to ask forgiveness, instead of using this latest murder as a means of self-glorification.
Failing that, at least the common sense to SHUT THE FUCK UP.

The MURDER of Alex Pretti AND Renรฉe Nicole Good (did she slip Obama's mind?!) IN MINNESOTA wouldn't have happened if this๐ ASSHOLE hadn't extended ICE's field of action from just 12 districts in Texas to cover the WHOLE of ๐บ๐ธ, tripling its budget.
ICE is a BIPARTISAN monster unleashed on Americans.
