Am remembering the Telegraph's hideously anti-Semitic column / front page by Tory Shadow Lord Chancellor Nick Timothy. Wind your neck in, you horrible bigots. You don't speak for Jews.

The majority of women a
exist in solidarity with trans women. So now we have this situation where women’s spaces are closing in protest against and *as a result* of the exclusion of trans women. If the ideologues cannot see this for the truly tragic situation it is then I pity them. (I pity them).

Headline in the Guardian reads Palestine Action activists cleared of aggravated burglary at Israeli defence firm site.
Accompanied by image of an ex-prison van used in enter the property.
This verdict leaves Labour’s anti-protest laws in tatters.
Labour has tried to tell us that Palestine Action is a terrorist group & should be considered alongside groups like ISIS & Al Qaeda. But this jury verdict of not guilty makes a mockery of this.

Palestine Action activists cleared of aggravated burglary at Israeli defence firm site
None of the six activists were convicted of any offence over break-in at Elbit Systems factory near Bristol in 2024
A truly hideous right wing smear campaign against these six activists for exercising their free speech rights to protest - and confronted with the evidence all six have been acquitted.

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.
There's a video out there of ice lynching a man. Don't watch it. It will not help you or others to traumatize yourself.
Spend the time you would have spent watching it/wanting to vomit and scream making a donation to somewhere in Minnesota, or if you can't, researching where you can help locally.

I'm on site where a federal agent shot a Minneapolis man this morning. It's bad.
Dozens of federal agents are facing off with hundreds of outraged residents. People being tear gassed, helicopters above, I keep hearing pops, and lots of loud BANGS.
This smoke is from tear gas:

I've never seen a population more united. If people can hold onto that unity, if people can accept that different people will have different ways of confronting fascism, if we can remind NGOs and orgs that they can join but not control the resistance, then, well, people here will write history.

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally
