the one thing I will ever even remotely hand to her is that she did, in fact, try to firebomb the proverbial Walmart

Calla Walsh is just fucking awful.

Proud of my hometown 💪

Philadelphia in candlelight. A city paused. Love showed up for Renee Nicole Good.

Americans think Mexico (13th in the world in GDP) is a backwater, but one reason dealing with the cartels is so difficult is because it's so large and the terrain can be so challenging. Like the Zapatistas are still around in the south. And nationalism can be a helluva drug in fighting a common foe

" #Iran plunged into internet blackout ... "The evidence shows that the scope of the crackdown is becoming more violent and more extensive every day," said the IHR director, Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam, adding that hundreds more had been wounded and more than 2,000 arrested.

A thoughtful, progressive, high-engagement participant like Sky Marchini deleting their account due to leftist harassment is such a tremendous L for this site. Let's be very clear, Bluesky is dead - commercially nonviable - if it can't moderate courageously enough to protect people like Sky.

Here's the full moment of silence including a fan yelling "Go home, ICE"

Protests mounting against ICE in various parts of D.C. tonight. In the middle of the U Street corridor, occupying the intersection with 14th Street: “Remember Renee Good,” one of the many signs here reads.

I'm switching between updates from Iran and the USA, and it is incredibly confusing, but also the same story

I’ve heard from multiple friends today about daycares being raided and parents being ripped out of cars (in one case with a child left behind in the backseat). Grim times here.

Sollte den Menschen in Sachsen-Anhalt, Brandenburg, Sachsen, Berlin in ihr Facebook und Tiktok auf Dauerschleife gesendet werden. Rechtsextreme werden alle terrorisieren, auch ihre eigenen Wählys.

WH media has got to improve. The format cannot simply be ask a question and listen to them lie.

States even have concurrent jurisdiction for crimes on federal military bases (although it's much more complicated) and jurisdiction over off-base crimes involving members of the military. There are countless examples of state criminal prosecution of federal officers.

Murder is a state crime

This is bullshit. They absolutely have jurisdiction.

The federal government claimed that the states have no jurisdiction to prosecute murders committed by its agents is the kind of thing the Founders would probably have done a whole entire revolution over

checked FB and yeah a bunch of non-political normies are furiously calling ICE a gang of murderers

different friend texted me musing about buying a gun for self-defense so that's fun. surely a painfully-vague-yet-singleminded focus on healthcare and lowering costs will safely defuse the pressure cooker bomb of rage building among American liberals and leftists

The people of Egypt overthrew a decades-old military dictatorship with people power. I don't want any bullshit defeatism from anyone in the United States, the fattest and happiest society in the world.

Ash-shab yurid isqat an-nizam! النظام يريد إسقاط الشعب

"For me and my children, I will die today."

you should not vote for Laura Fine if you live in IL-09 but I actually liked a bill she proposed today to bar ICE alums from working for any Illinois law enforcement agency

Not a 'CIA op', not a 'color revolution'. People the world over have the goddamn right to oppose the state's fascist yoke. They have the right to resist being controlled and beaten and killed into submission.

Solidarity with any people marching against tyranny. 💪

inspiring but the economic and overall quality of life in Iran has gotten really bad and you do not want that here.

This could get *extraordinarily* ugly. Reminder that the only thing that stopped Gaddafi from unleashing a level of violence on protestors in 2011 that would have rivaled Tiananmen was NATO airstrikes.

PLEASE LET IT HAPPEN

What a time for the 250th year to be upon us

He has…sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance. For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us: For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:

Only the Iranian people can say, and I pray that they do so loud and fucking clear.

american fp establishment can [REDACTED]. a free and democratic iran is what any free and democratic american should long for.

new race to see which state will be the first to charge federal agents with murder or attempted murder of their residents. Solidarity works better when all try it rather than none.

We need to make sure this image lives forever.

A senior US official told Fox CENTCOM is monitoring anti regime unrest and is watching Friday prayers across Iran for signs of how the authorities respond. No immediate action planned.

You know Lebanon is so nice this time of year

BBC overview:

That is interesting.

Interesting fact. Make of it what you will. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi’s visit to Beirut today was not wholly business. He brought his whole family with him. He’s expected to remain in Lebanon for the foreseeable future.

"What the CIA does" is give the okay to ambitious colonels who want to do a coup. A CIA-organized protest would be twelve guys with signs, one of whom would openly admit to news reporters that a guy from the American embassy gave him twenty bucks to be there

The CIA in its wildest dreams doesn't have the power to make a city of 15 million people rise up. Assassinations & palace coups are one thing. Mass uprisings are a far bigger & wilder thing

Okay, this government jumping from “of course we’re not going to stop communicating on Twitter” to “ban it” would be very, very funny

Don't worry guys, noem is gonna dox the agent again

We’re living in an American reign of terror and the media is committed to hiding it, because it’s much more comfortable pretending it’s just 2015 forever.

Hundreds of people have packed into Chicago's Thalia Hall tonight for a community listening session on CPD collaboration with ICE/CBP. Police district councillors who gathered petition signatures required to hold tonight's hearing are opening by thanking the community for showing out.

I think this too and my question is are ICE agents aware of this fact?

Yeah, even LA County Sheriffs have more professionalism than this.

It sure sounds like some CBP dipshit panicked, opened fire, and then ran away, which is exactly the level of professionalism that I would expect.

My anger at having to stand outside my kid’s school for two hours to ensure none of their classmates, parents, or teachers get kidnapped by my own government is only slightly tempered by the amazing outpouring of support from other parents and especially neighbors who stand against this bullshit.
