Being a nurse in online spaces is hilarious. Half the room thinks you’re a hero, half thinks you’re the villain, and none of them want to hear the actual messy truth. They just project whatever keeps their worldview intact

ILLIONIS: ICE got caught keeping people in rooms so crowded & filthy that a judge had to walk in herself and see it and was so disgusted she placed court orders to change it. People sleeping on concrete next to overflowing toilets. No phones. No lawyers. No food. No water. This is happening now.

OREGON: Yesterday, farmworkers in Salem were on their way to work when ICE smashed their van windows and dragged them out before arresting them. 14 people. Imagine waking up at 4 a.m. to feed this country, and this is how you get repaid.

FITCHBURG, MA: As agents detained his family, a father holding his baby went into a seizure from stress. The child cried in terror, trapped in his tightening arms while their mother was taken away, reaching helplessly for her baby. #ICEWATCH

ICE took a father from his home in Oregon just three weeks after his wife gave birth. He was on his way to work and they snatched him from his front yard. He has two other boys under ten years old. Tell me again how you care about “protecting families" Trump? Link below.

Today, November 5th, is Guy Fawkes Day. It’s a day born from rebellion. And after what we’ve seen this week, it’s a reminder that the power of the people can still shake empires. Never forget your power. Remember, remember, the 5th of November. Happy Guy Fawkes Day! #guyfawkes #nycmayoralelection

Not my photo, but gave me a chuckle this morning.

It's honestly wild how we live in the richest country on Earth and still have to take the president to court just to make sure people don’t starve. #usa

Last month, ICE made an illegal U-turn in Chicago, slammed into Dayanne Figueroa’s car, pointed guns, dragged her out by her legs, and kidnapped her without charges. She’s a U.S. citizen. They took her because could. #chicago #news #ICE

Isrαel’s top military lawyer Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi had leaked a video of Isrαeli soldiers assaulting & rαping a Palestinian prisoner. And she was arrested for it. Not the rαpists. Netanyahu called it a “PR attack” b/c to him, rαpe & torture are fine, but bad optics? Unforgivable. #worldnews

The Trump admin just proved it can move money when it wants to. They found $450M from “unused tariff funds” to keep WIC alive. But DOJ lawyers claim they can’t do the same for SNAP. It’s not about law. It’s about who they think deserves to eat. #snapbenefits #wic #governmentshutdown

The USA helped try the Nazis at Nuremberg. Then used this to help create the International Criminal Court. Then passed a law saying it can invade The Hague if an American is ever arrested by that court for crimes against humanity or war crimes. Read More: tinyurl.com/37ebd7ws

NBC says Trump wants to send U.S. troops into Mexico “to fight cartels.” Mexico’s president already said no. Repeatedly. We’ve seen this before. WW2 Germany? They called it “liberation" of Poland then. #history #nbc #mexico #military

The U.S. tried to bribe Venezuelan president Maduro’s personal pilot to kidnap him mid-flight and fly him straight into U.S. custody. A Homeland Security agent literally told Maduro’s pilot he’d be “a very rich man” if he just diverted the plane to Guantanamo. #venezuela #maduro #news

RFK Jr’s neighbor had decorated for Halloween with a skeleton holding a sign saying, “Wish I had taken my vaccine" & it had a box of Tylenol. 😂 #halloween #tylenol #rfkjr

So racist and disgraceful. Colorado’s 4th Congressional District needs to vote her out in the next election.

“No ethical billionaires” includes your favorite “nice” ones. Donating 1% while hoarding 99% isn’t compassion. It’s PR. Nobody needs more money than they could spend in 10 lifetimes while kids sleep in cars & families ration insulin. The wealth gap isn’t just unequal. It’s grotesque. #billionaire

Rich people cashed six-figure PPP checks. Never paid them back. Then shamed people using SNAP. Funny how “living off the system” only counts when you’re poor. #snap #foodstamps #snapbenefits #governmentshutdown #ppp

So... 60 Minutes is interviewing Trump again. You know, the same guy who called them fake news, sued them, and threatened to shut them down… But now CBS is owned by Paramount, and Paramount is run by his Ellison friends. Welcome to having state sponsored media. #cbs #60minutes #donaldtrump

Fifty-seven dead, two survivors, and a government that won’t say their names. This is what empire looks like when it thinks no one is watching. tinyurl.com/eej5atfd

ICE shoots 24-year-old U.S. Citizen in Ontario, CA Reporting By @eltragon.bsky.social and Aisha Wallace-Palomares

They broke the ribs a 76-year-old man at a kids #Halloween parade in Chicago. Kristi Noem followed it up by promising to send ICE "full force" after trick-or-treaters. Sending men in military gear into Chicago neighborhoods with guns drawn while children go door to door for candy? Beyond evil.

A #pregnant woman in ICE custody in #Louisiana begged for help while she was bleeding. Guards ignored her until she miscarried, then kept her locked up for two more months. What’s happening in Louisiana should be front-page news every day. It’s horrifying how normalized this cruelty has become.

I need joy today. Can I see everyone's pets? These are my non-human babies.

The Pentagon says they “neutralized narco-terrorists.” Translation: they blew up four more boats full of people in the Pacific. #pacific #pentagon

25 states have filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration for cutting off November SNAP benefits. The USDA has billions in reserve for this kind of situation but they have refused to release food aid during the shutdown. They could pay. They SHOULD pay. They chose not to. #snap #foodstamps

Tylenol causes pain relief. Vaccines cause adulthood.

I don’t have autism. I am autistic. There’s a difference because it’s not a disease I caught, it’s a way I exist. I don’t need or want to be ‘cured’, I just want to be understood. #autism #autistic #tylenol

I honestly think targeting SNAP was in Trumps plan after all and this just gave him an easy way to do it. A starving population is easier to control because when people are too busy trying to survive, they stop fighting back. That’s why corrupt governments cut food aid first.

Trump Administration just announced they won’t use emergency funds to feed Americans on SNAP. Not because they can’t — because they don’t want to. No money for food stamps, but plenty of money for ICE raids, Argentinian bailouts, and Kristi Noem’s new jets.

The DOJ is threatening California officials that if they arrest ICE agents who break state law they'll be prosecuted for it. This is insane.

Fascists always drive out the educated. Einstein fled when Nazis burned his books. Arendt escaped the Gestapo and wrote The Origins of Totalitarianism. Now it’s 2025, and America’s doing the same to Mark Bray. tinyurl.com/52hwf6w5

ICE’s weapons budget jumped 700% this year. They didn’t just buy guns… they bought guided missile warheads and explosive components. These aren’t crowd-control tools. They’re weapons of war. Why the hell does an “immigration agency” need warheads?

This week's articles are scheduled: Wed & Sat around 8am ET. I’m back to bedside nursing tomorrow, but you’re covered. Saturday’s piece, “The Government Is Watching Your Feed, Tracing Your Money, and Using AI to Decide Who To Target,” digs into ICE/DHS & how big they actually are.. Stay tuned.

Trump lost it after Colombia’s president exposed that the U.S. killed innocent fisherman w/ air strikes, calling him a drug lord & vowing to cut aid. Columbia got $210M total in aid this yr. This month alone, Trump gave Argentina $40B of our tax dollars, & spent another $172M on Noem’s luxury jets.

If you showed up today, don’t let this protest be the end of it. Take that fire home. Build with your people. Organize in your own block, your own feed, your own family. The fight doesn’t end at a rally. It ends when we win. “No Kings” means no letting up. #nokings

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been working overtime to free George Santos. He was pardoned today by Trump. So… if her name disappears from the Epstein files petition, you already know why. #epsteinfiles #georgesantos

The Supreme Court will run out of funding tomorrow if the government shutdown continues. Let Trump pay them since they evidently only work for him anyway. #supremecourt

The DOJ has officially filed charges on an “ANTIFA cell” and of course Fox News was the one to ‘break’ it. Pam Bondi regurgitated it. I am going to be doing a deep search on this starting today. #antifascist #antifa

One thing that really irritates the hell out of me is that none of these big creators were talking about Gaza until it made Trump look bad.

Why am I not surprised? These messages came from members of the Young Republicans — a 15,000-member GOP club for people 18 to 40 — bragging about planning to put people in “gas chambers,” “raping” enemies, calling Black people “watermelon people,” and dreaming of slavery’s return.

Bad day for Alex Jones. The Supreme Court just denied his appeal, and the $1.4 billion he owes the Sandy Hook families for calling their children's death a hoax? He's gotta pay that. #alexjones

“Spooky season is here” 🎃 like this whole year hasn’t been a nightmare.
