"Patriotism" as a condition of employment is problematic enough, but pretending that "not missing work due to illness" equals "patriotism" is the tell that this is nonsense.

Little Village community organizer Chela Garcia starts the demo by calling out Chicago police for, she says, shielding federal agents as they attempted to detain a minor this weekend. "Every time police collaborate with ICE, they are not serving us. They are serving a racist agenda," she says.

i posted on the other site, which has a comically intense hatred of dsa, that i was going to join dsa just to make terrible people mad, and so many terrible people got sooooo mad

“The outlet reported that both he and his daughter were briefly hospitalized and later recovered. Despite this, the Chicago Tribune reported Veraza as saying that since the incident, Arianna has been clingier and doesn’t want to be left alone.”

This fascist needs to become a fucking republican already since he is such a blood thirsty genocidal ghoul

Paid a Colombian tea grower $1,500 for a shipment. Got billed $150 by the Trump administration at the border. *I* got billed. Not the tea growers. Not the Colombian government. Me. The American business owner. I paid the Trump tax.

I think it’s now safe to call this race. Progressive urban planner Katie Wilson defeats centrist incumbent Bruce Harrell and will become Seattle’s next mayor.

Wow, that’s crazy. Republicans lied and are screwing you over? Who could have seen that coming?

Supreme Court says its okay to starve children

U.S. Border Patrol boss Greg Bovino, fellow agents to soon leave Chicago but could be back four-fold in March UPDATED @chicago.suntimes.com story w/ @tinasfon.bsky.social: chicago.suntimes.com/public-safet...

christ, what a wanker

BREAKING: Katie Wilson now leads Bruce Harrell by 1346 on race for Seattle Mayor. 50.08-49.59 @komonews

The best way to show that MAGA is not part of some dark authoritarian movement is to remove professors who suggest that it is

you ever think about how the Vice President gave this anime villain ass monologue

I still have not processed what I just read.

This happened in the 1980s and quickly fell into parody as times and beauty trends changed.

Really wish I had gotten a better shot of this but holding a phone that says “who else was just ‘following orders’?” up to a riot cop is hard as hell

On today's date in 1886, four men were executed in Chicago, IL for their alleged involvement in the Haymarket Affair. They were accused of bombing an anti-police brutality rally in May that killed a police officer. Days prior, police killed striking workers outside a factory in Chicago.

If the US attacks Venezuela, I will unequivocally stand with the people of Venezuela against this act of fascist aggression. I am not even a Maduro fan. This would be an unprovoked war solely for the vanity of the fascist president, while people in the US starve and lose healthcare.

Venezuela President Nicolás Maduro: “I ordered the militarisation of the entire country starting at 4pm by land, sea, and air.”

So now, if you’re a consumer facing company you have to worry about your market research being used by one of the most unpopular political figures in the world to prop up his “starve the poor” campaign...

Just moments ago, detainees transported from ICE’s Broadview facility this morning were loaded onto an Avelo Airlines plane in Gary, Indiana.

what

I dunno about that.

Turns out poor people spent a lot of money on tea and sugar *because they were poor* and that was their inadequate replacement for unaffordable things like cooking fuel, food with actual nutritional content, and enough calories to slave away over a loom for 12 hours.

This is hilarious considering how tame the whole protest was, despite multiple provocateurs trying to get a reaction from students. They’re so desperate to paint antifascists as violent lunatics when they’re literally just hanging out in fursuits smoking weed

The only violence came after a conservative walked around provoking people, ultimately screaming a racist slur. Not sure what he expected

Apparently, there was a brawl between a TPUSA supporter and a protestor after a protestor threw some Kirk merch on the ground, but it's unclear who started the physical altercation after the fact. Both were arrested

Many are calling for Chuck Schumer's resignation. What hasn't been reported until now is that any Senate Democrat can offer a motion to challenge his leadership position, and it would have to get a vote within 7 days. From @whitneycwimbish.bsky.social: prospect.org/2025/11/11/o...

wow. WOW.

As I have said before, the broader silence on the ethnic pogrom of terror across this country is one of those things you can’t help noticing from the loudest special boy politics knowers on here.

“Bovino and his officers are expected to head to Charlotte, North Carolina, then continue to New Orleans, according to two of the officials, who stressed plans are still being finalized. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is expected to continue operations in Chicago.”

Former House speaker / Trump adviser newt Gingrich, saying on the record what we’d heard so much on background from those others: “Look at the rage on the left. It doesn’t sound like a victory party to me. All you have to do is look at the reaction on the left to figure out who won this shutdown…”

yes america had never thought to celebrate its war victories until trump brought it up. america def never talks about how it wins wars on memorial day, veterans day and independence day. we're just shy little smol beans about our war wins.

Their political philosophy hinges on a vision of white supremacy in which people who aren’t white are here at the privilege of white people, which they can revoke at any time, which they expect to be received with gratitude.

if you told 17 year old me how thoroughly, world-historically vindicated ICP would be within a couple decades...

Yea we lost vietnam cause of political correctness. The people who believe this shit have pudding for brains

Thanks to BAMN for good pushback on TPUSA at Berkeley yesterday

On November 11, 1887, four anarchists were hanged, after being found guilty of murder of a cop in Chicago's Haymarket Square, though the prosecutor admitted that they were actually tried for being anarchists.

Well if they wanted to stop the spread of socialism and communism, I guarantee attacking Venezuela will make a lot more young people socialists and communists.

Remember when I said they would probably wait until the CSG was in operational range inside of the gulf? good news 🤗

All of Chicago remembers the joys of shopping at the "Miracle Mile Shopping Center", that real place that actually exists, but we can't do it any more because of all of the murders

Antifascists have identified fascists, in part, by comparing eyes, ears, nasolabial folds, shoes, hair/hairlines, moles, scars, glasses, watches, phone cases, shoes, belts, backpacks, shirts, rings, etc. Their "gait"? Never, because it's not a thing.

The United States expended 25% of its entire missile defense capacity to prevent Israel from facing consequences for its war of aggression against Iran! The US Navy pushed maintenance schedules back years to kill Yemenis on behalf of Israel! They poured F/A-18s into the Red Sea for Israel!

So they just ride into town hollering and shooting like Pinkertons hired by the railroad baron in an old western, and then they leave

notable but not surprising that Fetterman chose Fox & Friends as the place to promote his new book

This photo was taken by @chicagotribune.com photog @mandophotos.bsky.social this past Saturday in Chicago's Little Village neighborhood. Chicago's local news journalists are doing a helluva job capturing the aggressive tactics CPB & ICE are using here. bsky.app/profile/mand...

a lot of people say we are in an existential fight with fascists but then cannot take it even a single step further and handle the implications of that statement. an existential fight requires drastic actions! taking big risks! it’s not just a repainted “vote blue no matter who” slogan
