“Let’s go, girls” and “hell yeah, brother” are both gender neutral statements

Sunday President diarrheas on the country, Monday President bulldozes White House, Tuesday President steals $230 million, Wednesday President... fucks a horse? Let's see if he fucks a horse.

This entire article is worth your time. We no longer have a government in any real sense. We have a gang that uses state power to punish opponents and reward supporters, sometimes for the same behavior

The absolute insanity of fielding reports/blurring videos of kidnappings and sightings from an explosion of Border Patrol agents in your own neighborhood in Chicago while also getting news of an ICE agent shooting another fed in LA and then logging on to see them IDing delivery workers in NYC

It sounds like the Republicans should stop protecting Bill Clinton and release the Epstein files.

I'm really sick of this grifting piece of shit

School lets out around 3 and parents are going to be very fearful. Please join a school corner watch this afternoon if you can, or just keep an eye out from 2:30-3:30

"Loads of guys in the military have tattoos like that" is an argument against the culture of the US military, not an argument for chilling out about Nazi tattoos.

ICE is parked outside an immigrant community center in Roger's Park, according to a friend who's inside leading an emotional wellbeing workshop

If you are on ICE watch in the Rogers Park vicinity please have a buddy and exercise extreme caution. ICE has assaulted verifiers today and arrested at least one of our people. If you are vulnerable to ICE in this area, I recommend staying inside if possible.

i really hope i live to see a time where it again feels like education for its own sake is seen as a social good

Obviously wake-up calls don't actually exist in American politics, but dems and the left in general need to get over the "pick me" tendencies that make them fetishize left leaning ex-military candidates.

Just now from State Rep Hoan Huyhn, who says CPB stopped his car, pointed a gun at him, and tried to break his car windows

January 6 was, in theater terms, invited dress

I will tell you that the folks working the ICIRR Hotline are the real deal and saved these kids. PUT THIS NUMBER IN YOUR PHONE AND CALL IF YOU SEE ICE IN ILLINOIS: (855) 435-7693

ICE JUST BROKE INTO MY FUCKING BUILDING IN WEST RIDGE CC @unraveledpress.com @thetriibe.com @blockclubchi.bsky.social @andrefor40th.bsky.social @leniann.bsky.social

As most are aware by now, ICE is slamming the north side today. They've been seen in Andersonville, Rogers Park, West Ridge, Edgewater + Evanston. Several people abducted, agents still active. Shared with permission—rapid response whistle team at Bryn Mawr & Broadway this morning.

Andersonville too

Edgewater too

Head's up confirmed ICE activity in Albany Park, has been reported to ICRR (not by me).

The thing is that conservatives DO love having a king. That was like a whole bit in Sideshow Bob Roberts

You can now watch Oscar Award winning documentary No Other Land in the United States of America. Link below.

i am so tired of hearing about jesus!!!!!! if you like jesus that is totally fine but please stop telling me about him!!!!

This is an international disaster. They targeted a disabled fishing boat in Colombian territorial waters and killed fishermen.

Anytime you ask “why did the Times cover it this way?” or whatever corporate media it is, remember that influential moderates are the tool of the wealth class and are there to normalize whatever the wealthy want and create doubt regarding reform and change.

Stop expecting corporate media to fix this and stop expecting corporate Democrats to fix it. You’re in a class war and the sides are very obvious. Continuing to not see this fact is chosen denial and we don’t have the time or privilege to live in denial anymore.

Arizona’s 7th congressional district does not get to be represented in the House of Representatives because of the President’s friendship with a dead pedophile

If you’re in a creative field and you don’t lift up the work of your peers, you can’t expect people to care about your stuff

A Border Patrol agent in Round Lake Beach on the morning of Friday 10/18 tells the person filming his license plate, "we change plates out every day."

Well I was not expecting BILL NIGHY to be spitting facts today! observer.co.uk/culture/inte...

I've never been much of a local/regional pride guy, but goddamn, Chicago over every fucking thing

Helicopter view of Chicago #NoKings in Grant Park via @cbschicago.bsky.social

fwiw it's the ~purpose~ and not the peacefulness that determines whether or not a protest is patriotic

Still trying to get a sense of the devastation caused by ICE and Border Patrol across Lake County yesterday. People were overwhelmed and they don't have the kind of rapid response connectivity the city does. Feds raided a car wash in Wauconda.

This week’s “Photos of the Week” compilations will be truly dark. @reuters.com @gettyimages.com

these rando heroes of mundanity have always been the best thing about social media

State troopers in riot gear just plowed into the crowd, started arresting protesters and clergy.

“They literally ushered us into the street to protest and immediately after started beating the shit out of us.” This is 100% an accurate description of how this started. Broadview PD mishandled the situation from the start, then unleashed ISP to beat the protesters they’d led into the street.

I know this makes me sound 100 years old but it fuckin sucks that Cameron Winter is already putting songs in commercials

literally no need for this the protesters were just standing there, not causing any problems. then here come the police, causing problems. I need @govpritzker.illinois.gov to tell these goons to go home. And if he can't or won't do so, I need to know that, too.

Police escalated the situation here in Broadview incredibly quickly. Saw multiple brutal arrests. ISP jabbing protesters with their batons like battering rams. Here ISP lifts @katmabu.bsky.social by her feet to flip her over a concrete barrier.

I am never ever fucking EVER getting over these fuckers just driving around snatching our neighbors off the street.

if there is a "male loneliness epidemic," it's entirely due to the closed loop of right wing masculinity making men unfuckable which drives them to create AI women who tell them what they want to hear which drives them further right and makes them more unfuckable, etc., etc., etc.

You're writing this down right? Good. As I was saying my car sucked so bad my wife left me. Yes I can spell my name for you.

they're never not kids and they're never not kidding except when they are and then it's just an exception and there's never any end to how and why they can all get away with it all of the time

i've got a place for @govpritzker.illinois.gov to donate those gambling winnings

A US citizen in Chicago was kidnapped by Border Patrol and dumped on the streets half a mile away. EVEN THOUGH HE WAS FILMING IT. They do not care about getting caught. They have no fear of accountability.
