I have zero knowledge beyond what is in the press, but at the very least it really *looks* that way.

This is my friend.

His name is Christian Smalls.

He founded the Amazon Labor union

Not as a professional activist, but as a worker who decided he’d had enough.

Recently, he was beaten and detained by the IDF

And no one in the MSM is talking about it.

ICE agents lied about LA protestors

Exclusive: J Street spurns ADL in teachers union fight, saying its approach ‘demeans the meaning of antisemitism’ J Street’s move comes as progressives show increasing anger at the ADL’s uncompromising defense of Israel.

SCOOP by @arnorosenfeld.bsky.social and I: J Street is declining to back the Anti-Defamation League in its battle with the nation’s largest teachers union, the National Education Association, saying ADL is no longer a reliable arbiter of antisemitism. forward.com/news/755587/...

“It’s a sad day when any member of the Sangat decides that they cannot attend the Gurdwara. That’s the antithesis of the existence of the Gurdwara.” -Amar Shergill

Thank you to @sikhcoalition.bsky.social for their support in the litigation.🙏🏾

Gurdwaras, churches, mosques, and mandirs should be places of peace and sanctuary but Trump and MAGA are changing all that. That’s why I helped lead efforts at Gurdwara Sahib West Sacramento in this legal fight. Encourage your faith allies to join the litigation.

🧵New original reporting from @indiacurrents.bsky.social! Quoted in the behind the scenes stories of the Sacramento Sangat and why the West Sacramento Gurdwara joined litigation filed by @democracyforward.org and interfaith allies against the Trump administration.

The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for senior Taliban leaders on a charge of gender persecution. #Afghanistan

This could provide victims and their families with an essential pathway to justice.

MacArthur Park today wasn’t law enforcement. It was political theater.
No arrests. No crime ring. Just troops, agents and fear.
Kids at summer camps were rushed indoors as helicopters and soldiers swarmed.
The message? Intimidate immigrants. Children became collateral in the show.

I don't ever wanna become desensitized to the image of fully masked federal agents and soldiers. It's one of the harrowing images of our times.

He's the poster child for the bad policy decisions and feckless leadership that got us into this mess but I absolutely would want him in the Dem leadership as he has administrative skill and media savvy that can be applied to good use.

Truly no excuse for anything than other than maximum opposition to the regime’s priorities.

the lesson of this isn't that tucker carlson is actually good but that you should ask these people basic factual questions instead of bullshit about politics

Full respect to the hero who paid for this troll plane over the Stanford graduation ceremony. #Demp

Heroes are putting themselves on the line.

Meanwhile our failed Congress—which has the Constitutional duty to halt this lawless rampage immediately—sits limp and flaccid.

This is what happens if a US Senator stands up to ask a question of the MAGA administration at a press conference! The weakness of MAGA is on display; they can't even take a simple question.

I would like to say this isn't America but it is until we stand together to change it.

Solidarity. ✊🏼✊🏾✊🏽✊🏿

While there are good reasons to criticize Democrats, never say they are the same.

@housegop.bsky.social

It's been two days since a bigoted Republican member of Congress published a hate-filled post against Sikhs and Muslims. Since then, Republican leadership has been silent while Democratic leadership has clearly stood with our communities against bigotry.

Appreciate that there are some really good statements from officials re standing with immigrants against ICE/Trump/MAGA in our communities...BUT shouldn't there be some pretty significant criticism re LAPD enabling those ICE raids? @aclucalaction.bsky.social @aclu.org

This is police and ICE brutality and we cannot sit back and just let it happen.

Not in Los Angeles.

Wah! This is the best ad for the Desi community in the history of American politics. The messaging, cultural referencing, and voter education is impeccable! Aapka time aageya!!

I must admit that it was not until today that I fully appreciated the immense courage of the reporters that put themselves in harm's way to bring us the stories of Sikh human rights advocates at risk due to the assassinations and plots by the government of India.

Every day that this horror continues, I think of Omar El Akkad's tweet: "One day, when it’s safe, when there’s no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it’s too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this."

Trump pardons former Virginia sheriff convicted of taking $75K in bribes President Donald Trump pardons Virginia Sheriff Scott Jenkins, who was convicted of bribery, and accused former President Joe Biden's DOJ of unfair prosecution and highlighting judicial bias.

This will get lost in the news, but Trump has repeatedly normalized corruption and bribery.

Our President is a crook who has accepted billions of dollars in bribes and has abused his pardon authority to free other crooks (like Eric Adams) who are his supporters.
