If you didn’t catch the significance of the exploding transformers in Bad Bunny’s halftime show, I gotcha. Here’s one of a bunch of pieces I wrote from/on Puerto Rico about the crisis—and Trump’s role in it. slate.com/news-and-pol...

call me "woke" or whatever but I think the Superbowl should have less football and more dancing latinas

I better not hear a lick of English during the Super Bowl halftime show 😤

Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation (undoubtedly to the frustration of certain KC’s and separatist leaders)… Are making it clear that they can speak for themselves. A new fact sheet blows absolute holes in a LOT of the separatist lies. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

This is brilliant. I'm so grateful for this testimony. I've transcribed it to use in letters I'm writing. Sharing the full transcription here (see alt text to copy/paste it):

Shirley Povich writing in 1962, with the most immaculate burn conceivable of the Redskins awful, vile owner George Preston Marshall, the last NFL owner to insist on an all white roster: "Jim Brown, born ineligible to play for the Redskins, integrated their end zone three times yesterday." RIP WaPo.

I've told this story on ContrabandCamp but it's worth sharing for BHM because it's one of the greatest stories ever. A thread.

You've probably heard by now that the Conservative Party convention voted to keep Pierre Poilievre on as their leader. What you may not have heard about, however, is the *other* stuff the delegated voted on over the weekend. Some of it is...predictable. But some of it is downright concerning:

Big bro held it together as long as possible and not one second more. 😆

The ONLY surviving Gullah-Geechee community in Georgia just stopped developers with an 85% vote on Sapelo Island. They protected their language, culture, and ancestral land from gentrification. When Black communities unite, we win. This is power.

Breaking - Jim Pattison Developments say the sale of their warehouse for use as a proposed ICE facility will not be proceeding

The Alberta Chiefs will not have their treaty lands traded away by the white supremacists pushing the break up of Canada.

The fallout for Blood Tribe after their mass-ID'ing in Arkansas continues. According to a local news outlet and Zillow property listing, neo-nazi Keith Elflein has listed his home for sale after being publicly ID'd and made to feel exactly as scared and unwelcome in the community as he deserves.

Once again, how is there not a single Senate Democrat calling for Schumer to step aside as he negotiates away Dem leverage in preparation to completely fold on DHS?

I’m not sure how much notice this has received but the Assembly of First Nations in Canada has issued a travel advisory for the United States after reports that Indigenous people are being increasingly questioned and detained by ICE. www.instagram.com/p/DT-_SacDEH...

They're not cancelling the contract. Which, putting aside the lack of morality and ethics that demonstrates, feels like a stone cold stupid business decision.

Living in the upside-down

UFCW 1518 has written to the Jim Pattison Group about the decision to sell a Pattison-owned warehouse for conversion into an ICE processing facility. We stand firmly against practices that dehumanize people anywhere — including the harms reported by victims impacted by ICE.

I've reached out to all Canadian companies listed here to ask if they intend to continue working with ICE: Hootsuite Roshel Garda Jim Pattison Developments I've also reached out to @anitaoakvilleeast.bsky.social's team for comment on export permits for Canadian sale of armoured vehicles to ICE.

Thread! As I've said in similar threads, this IS the America Black and brown people have always known, and why, when white people lament that it's a "change" or "new" or "never happened before", we side eye you.
