* TRUMP INSISTED ZELENSKIY SURRENDER ENTIRE DONBAS TO PUTIN: FT

⭕DIRECTO | Arranca la jornada de huelga general, paros y marchas para denunciar el genocidio en Gaza

Friends and comrades made a crowdfunding page for my family. It’s really hard to post this. I know that there are a lot of other important issues asking for money but things have gotten to the point where we need to open ourselves up to your support. Thank you for your consideration.

This is intolerable. How are we allowing this to go on?

This is the man that ICE just detained. This isn't about catching criminals, it is about Ethnic cleansing www.iowapublicradio.org/news-from-np...

“It is our duty to fight for our freedom. It is our duty to win. We must love each other and support each other. We have nothing to lose but our chains.” -Assata

I stand by my thinking that Gaza was the final push that pushed this country over the edge. The extremity with which *liberals* joined in stifling speech, leaning on private donors and corporations to enforce compliance from universities and people, set the stage for all of this

I know people sometimes dismiss posts about how Trump “can’t do this” by arguing that Trump will just ignore the law and do whatever he wants, but I think the fact that there’s no legal infrastructure in place to enable this kind of thing really does matter.

I get the opportunity to talk with newly radicalized people and it is such a joy.

Boycott this rancid state-dictated mourn fest. And protest the shit out of this fascist company.

It's deeply unfortunate he's saying this obvious truth now given his previous positions

With respect: No. The most important task for everyone right now is to ask themselves what they're willing to do to defend their vanishing civil liberties. We have a choice between quiet self-preservation or fighting back. Otherwise, the road to dictatorship is already clear.

It's important to realize what precipitated this was Nexstar announcing they pulled showing Kimmel on their affiliates. They're currently waiting for the FCC to loosen restrictions to enable their massive merger. This was as much pay to play by a corporation as it was censorship.

good fucking night and good fucking luck

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

Namecheap and Squarespace are enabling a website that far-right extremists are using to target people they feel have said the wrong things about Charlie Kirk’s death. If you’re looking for more companies to boycott.

Don’t ever let the Trump Administration tell you they support the First Amendment. This is a shocking violation. The United States Government has no authority to tell people in this country what to say or not say.

NEW: Senate Republicans trigger 'nuclear option,' changing rules to speed up Trump nominees The vote is 53-45, with all GOP senators voting in alignment. Details on the new rule, and what it means >> www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

No elected official Democratic party will be as cruel about Kirk's death as Mike Lee was about the death of Melissa Hortman. wisconsinexaminer.com/2025/06/17/s...

IDF sniper from Chicago who says he killed Gazan teenager just for trying to retrieve his brother's corpse: “They’re thinking, ‘Oh I don’t think [I’ll get shot] because I’m wearing civilian clothes and I am not carrying a weapon' and all that, but they were wrong. That’s what you have snipers for.”

In L.A. tomorrow, protest Amy Coney Barrett who today joined in licensing ICE to stop brown and Spanish speaking people and demand their papers simply because of those attributes. https://www.mobilize.us/mobilize/event/837659/

Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:

We got a great ep with Greg Grandin about the end of American Myth — from Clinton to Trump to how America is going through its own end of the USSR moment…it no longer believes in itself. www.nefariousrussians.com/p/cannibalis...

The “deal” that Brown made with the Trump admin is much more extreme than is being reported. It includes government oversight of course evaluations and no barrier to government interference in faculty hiring. Read it for yourself here: www.brown.edu/sites/defaul...

Just realising Stephen Miller is only 39 years old & he looks like garbage. Being evil truly makes you ugly.

Been in Minnesota for only three days, but after being at an alt Pride event in Minneapolis yesterday, it's begun to dawn on me that most people outside of California doing quiet understand what's happening in L.A. in any real sense. It's very strange.

Complete solidarity with my comrades at ACCE - a long time political home. This news is devastating.

I spent most of today seeking to meet with one of the many victims of ICE raids currently jailed in Downtown LA. While @chrclla.bsky.social focuses its efforts on impact litigation, my team boosts efforts on the ground whenever possible. What I saw speaks to the crisis in LA & beyond.

So the communists defeated the guy who tortured Ted Cruz.

Move to hold the agents who assaulted a sitting senator in contempt of Congress. Call for articles of impeachment against Noem. Stop working on crypto legislation. Demonstrate the stakes of what is happening in LA with your actions.

The Trump regime is purporting to occupy a major American city with military troops while secret agents kidnap people off the street. A US senator was just arrested and the President has entertained questions about arresting the governor. Authoritarianism is on the march; an extremely dangerous time

If they can do this to a US senator, what will they do to you?

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

Just got off an interview with BLU Radio Colombia. Focused, given the questions, on pushing back against the narrative that Los Angeles is facing an "insurrection" necessitating Federal intervention, and insisting that this is a double-attack against immigrants & California

Texas now rolling out its national guard to "maintain order" there in response to ICE raids. The militarisation of this is proceeding rapidly x.com/AFP/status/1...

🚨This morning at 5:30 AM, ICE and Border Patrol terrorized farmworkers in the Camarillo fields in Ventura County along Laguna Rd-during peak harvest season. Our communities are under attack.

this is literally true, there has been far more chaos and disruption on LA streets every time a local team has won a championship (including the LA Kings) than there has been in the last week but Fox says the city is on fire so the mad king gets to send in the stormtroopers

A curfew will begin at 8 PM tonight - about 2 hours after it was announced - in Downtown Los Angeles. It will include part of Boyle Heights and all of Chinatown

Biden not prosecuting Trump and his entourage to the full letter of the law in the aftermath of January 6th was a world-historically disastrous choice. Not quite "Hitler only jailed for 9 months for the Beer Hall Putsch" but generally idiotic & disastrous for us all

These politicians disgust me.

i will not stop yelling that the violence in LA was 100% instigated by the National Guard, DHS, and LAPD protesters marched and chanted and waved signs, they danced and sang and laughed the fully armed and armored agents of the state tried to injury as many people as they could in retaliation
