The father—who's lived in the U.S. for over two decades and has an active asylum application—was reportedly driving with his daughter when he called his wife and said someone seemed to be following them. When they got home, agents got hold of the child. trib.al/VFuC1v3

📻👄 Guess who’s on the radio? I’m in the latest episode of Radiolab on voice radiolab.org

Liberals: don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good Me: yeah fair ok, show me the good Liberals: this isn't the time for fucking purity tests you little shit

Yall hollering about IMPEACHMENTS if the Dems win midterms? GIRL. 13 people under Trump’s orders tried to kill Gov. Whitmer WHOLE FAMILY—she had to live under FBI protection for a YEAR—and she was HUGGED UP WITH HIM AFTER HE PARDONED ALL OF THEM.

Coates says Black Americans have stories about relatives who were lynched or had to flee and that a life free of political violence is not in reach in his time Klein: "Sometimes I think that having a historical scope that wide can make the present too deterministic." They lynched a kid last week.

NEW: Despite Trump's appearing to waver on sending troops into Portland, Pete Hegseth issued this memo today purporting to federalize 200 members of the Oregon National Guard. This is an exhibit in Oregon's just-filed lawsuit challenging the deployment. www.courtlistener.com/docket/71481...

Trump and his billionaire donors might be able to determine Adams and Cuomo’s actions. But they won't decide this election. In just over 5 weeks, we'll turn the page on the politics of big money and small ideas — and deliver a government every New Yorker can be proud of.

BREAKING: Oregon & Portland just sued President Trump to block his order sending federal troops into the city. The plaintiffs call the deployment “patently unlawful” and say it violates the U.S. Constitution and the Posse Comitatus Act.

California! Set a reminder in your phone to call the gov’s office to tell Newsom to sign these five bills. The guy’s mercenary as hell so if he thinks the wind is shifting in favor of trans rights (it never shifted! Trans rights are human rights!) we could flip him. Info below. Call: 916.445.2841

We are Sakher and Reem, two young people from Gaza We’ve lost everything our homes, our safety, our peace We’ve been displaced over and over, sleeping in broken tents, sick, tired, and afraid All we want is a normal, quiet life… but even that feels impossible now More in comments💔 gofund.me/459d365f

online style accounts that try to look rich vs actual rich people

Btw, if you’re gonna buy mums this year*, don’t. Buy asters instead. Mums are not native to N. America, asters are. Ideally one grown without pesticides but I know that’s hard to find. Any aster is better than a mum. *if you live in N. America

Got an email from a friend in SF who says she found my Charlie Kirk column printed out in the zine bin at her local library. As a Gen Xer, I think this is the highest possible compliment.

Black & brown men may not experience misogyny but that doesn't mean they're privileged relative to white women.

This got even more true somehow

Said "do white people have no responsibility?" to a non-white person and is now insisting she didn't mean the person she was directly addressing, which makes complete and total sense.

I’m tempted to be like yo here’s an antiracist reading list for numbskulled white queries. But they were reading & reading when it was the vogue in 2020. It’s all the best most crucial stuff! But it will never replace setting yourself aside to defer to a regular Black person speaking plainly.

Too many white people turn to leftism as their get out of being white free card. Oh goody, I get to focus on fighting every oppressive force in society except the one I like participating in best because of its benefits.

"Political violence is the norm for the Black experience in this country. It just is." - Ta-Nehisi Coates If you think political violence starts and ends with rich, powerful white people, you have NOT been paying attention in the slightest. #blacksky

I see my people are having a totally normal one this morning

This part!

Neurodivergent tend to have strong morals (as in literally being one of the criterias), unfortuantely that doesn't translate to good morals.

A lot of people mistake being Neurodivergent for being a good person

This is who Ezra Klein had on his show at least twice. Ezra Klein is a racist, white supremacist zionist pretending to be "centrist"

Whatever helps you never have to interrogate benefitting from white supremacy so you can actually be part of the human collective we need to fight for better. It’s all about white folks sleeping at night.

Scratch a white leftist who thinks we can fight fascism without dealing with whiteness, find your average ignorant bigot who thinks Black people can be racist.

I can't stress enough that Black people in the US are less likely to believe untrue conspiracy theories than white people, not because Black people have more inherent discernment. That's not a real thing. There is no discernment gene. It's because Black people are inoculated against US media lies.

thank you very much to all of my online friends who use decent alt text to describe pictures I do not use a screen reader at this time but I have low vision and have a difficult time processing many of the pictures that I'm seeing thank you for making any effort at all to include me, and others 🩷

if anyone among the 'leftleaning white poor' who engage/d in socialjustice movements don't know what whiteness is +why it exists at all (unlikely for ppl who fit all the posited adjectives but] TEACH THEM. u don't get to let an ignorance that runs cover for atrocities just ride

This shouldn’t be a controversial statement at all. If you have even spent a short time examining race & class you would know the biggest thing keeping whitefolk broke is whiteness What are they dismantling every social safety net & having soldiers push grandmas down under the banner of Right Now?

The white poor need to dismantle whiteness too.

They're the same picture. Fascism is whiteness. Whiteness is fascism. GET THAT THROUGH YOUR HEAD. The concept of whiteness is literally a fascist social construct. It was created to uphold fascism.

Daily bunny no.3091 was a little overdue

I know a lot of people won’t click through to read about “med beds” so here’s the crucial quote to explain how fucking crazy this is. Trump just posted an AI video of himself promising every American access to this.

I've been struggling with depression lately so today I went to the cat rescue and pet all the cats. This should be a kind of therapy.

Still waiting for any discussion among women about how white womanhood is the face of fascism on a national scale This is where it’s needed

ICE just chased everyone off the public road by the Broadview facility. They yelled for people to move and immediately began firing gas into the crowd, which included legal observers, press, and medics.

Israeli conductor arrested during a Gaza protest says it’s unlikely he’ll ever be allowed to perform in his home country again—and that he regrets nothing.

Look at the baby void!!

A man was just chased and arrested outside of the Broadview ICE facility in Chicago. When legal observers from the National Lawyers Guild asked why, an agent threatened to arrest them too.

We are Sakher and Reem, two young people from Gaza.
For nearly two years, our lives have been nothing but fleeing — from one tent to another, from one displacement to the next.
We are too young for this much pain. Read the rest of my words in the comments 💔🙏 GFM : gofund.me/459d365f

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.
