america's school shooting epidemic has been so bad for so long, i wonder if we've already had our first second generation school shooting survivor? it's only a matter of time.

perhaps going to be the most poorly aged tweet of all time soon

It’s honestly worth returning to Twitter to see the Somali memes in response to all the bigotry they’ve received. Genuinely a hilarious response to such ugly hate.

in the 80s, a neo-nazi terrorist group robbed an armored car. that money ended up in the hands of white supremacists all over the country. some of it was used to buy AT&T stock for a racist stunt at a shareholders meeting. AT&T said no to nazis in '88 but i guess being racist is good business today.

Rep Grijalva is continuing to be an example of how the law applies very differently depending on who you are.

This is bonkers, these people have all passed a series of interviews and checks. Pulling people from the citizenship ceremony is really just cruel.

The right is full of grown-ass adults who are afraid of vaccines, kid's books, and anyone Twitter or OAN tells them to fear, including the entirety of NYC, and NYC is full of people who cheerfully chase federal agents out of the state and then do stunts on Citibikes; you tell ME who's going to win.

Trump’s DOGE Is Dead and We Won’t Miss It trib.al/sYWu3Ub

Jesus fucking Christ on a pogo stick. This motherfucker never learns. HE NEVER FUCKING LEARNS! Same goddamned argument for 40 years, and he’s always, always wrong! Afghanistan? Iraq? Never heard of ‘em! Now here’s why the only solution to dealing with Venezuela is regime change via US invasion.

Trump had found an issue more unpopular than his handling of inflation - attacking Venezuela: www.cbsnews.com/feature/cbs-...

The idea that we get *less* migration from a destabilized Venezuela is madness.

PROTECT EACH OTHER CODE 1 → ICE NEARBY 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 BLOW IN A BROKEN RHYTHM: PRE-PRE-PRE-PRE! → ALERTS THE COMMUNITY THAT ICE AGENTS ARE IN THE AREA. CODE 2 → ICE IS DETAINING SOMEONE 🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵 CODE RED BLOW IN A CONTINUOUS, STEADY RHYTHM FORM A CROWD, STAY LOUD. STAY NONVIOLENT. DON'T STAY SILENT.

VACCINES DO NOT CAUSE AUTISM! However Measles can cause encephalitis and brain damage. Chickenpox can lead to permanent scars. Meningitis has long term consequences like seizures and motor function disorders. Polio can cause respiratory paralysis. Vaccines are SAFE and prevent life long misery.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

oh whoa the models aren't just getting better and better consistently huh

It’s not just a layer of bureaucracy. It is the backbone of civil rights enforcement in America’s schools. | Opinion

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

"Should this Al bubble pop, we should not be entertaining a bailout of these corporations while healthcare is being denied to Americans and SNAP is being denied to Americans." Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

I’m not sure how one could pull this off alone, this seems very suspect. It seems possible Mr Ge came through jacumba (I don’t recall being aware of people crossing closer to tecate). I remember lots of Chinese folks arriving the days before he was booked by BP.

I really hate it when scientists keep saying that “we need to rebuild trust in science,” because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Raskin: "In the very presence of the victims and survivors, the Speaker said that 'now is a time we should be working on urgent legislative work.' Mr Speaker, justice is urgent legislative work. The truth is urgent legislative work. You were the one who refused to swear in Rep. Grijalva for 50 days"

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi. I hired and worked with Jamal for a year. www.washingtonpost.com/world/nation...

Most of us have no idea how bad it is inside ICE detention centers because they have kept it hidden. Then a truth teller shows up and says it plain. The conditions are filthy. The treatment is inhumane. The abuse is Systematic and routine.

I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

Members of Democratic caucus press ICE for answers on detainment of pregnant women | via @arianalfigueroa.bsky.social #ksleg

NEW: We filed a FOIA request demanding answers from the Department of Homeland Security about their pattern of targeting journalists, advocates, and other bystanders who film ICE and CBP activity in public. The First Amendment protects our right to record.

If CBP, Customs and Border Protection, is only supposed to operate within 100 miles of the U.S. border, what are they doing leading operations in Charlotte, North Carolina?

Kristi Noem is mad that protesters are blowing whistles at ICE agents.

This is bullshit! What are the charges? 📌 Border Patrol arrested two women for allegedly honking their car horn to alert others of the agents’ presence

Today, the House finally passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Survivors have waited years for answers, and the American people have been kept in the dark for far too long. Every name, every meeting, and every document must be released—no excuses, no delays. (1/2)

The regime is dismantling the department of education.

Nick Fuentes has long trafficked in white supremacy, racism and misogyny. Now, mainstream media outlets and platforms are helping him reinvent himself—muting his slurs while amplifying his reach. His sanitization shows how extremists are being normalized in U.S. politics and media.

"By its own definition, the alt-right is no more. Because it’s no longer an alternative to the right. It is the right." From the archives:

When you court and flatter conspiracy theorists, and make them think you believe their nonsense, they're going to hold you to account. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-leopar...

Epstein survivor Haley Robson: "To the President of the United States of America, I want to send a clear message to you…I can't help to be skeptical of what [your] agenda is…I am traumatized. I am not stupid. You have put us through so much stress…It's not right."

Massie: "There are a thousand survivors. They can't open enough investigations to cover up everything that's in these files."

🇧🇴 Bolivia permanece expectante ante la llegada de Rodrigo Paz Pereira a la Presidencia. Surgido muy por debajo de sus contendientes en la intención de voto y con una ideología de centroderecha, tomó posesión el 8 de noviembre. 🎧 Escucha: elhilo.audio/273

The truth will have its day. That day is now. Release all the Epstein files.

Marjorie Taylor Greene and Donald Trump have had a falling out over Jeffrey Epstein. If he's lost Marge, Donald is in real trouble over the Epstein Files.

Bless the Epstein survivors for speaking out! Justice! NOW!

Trump: DON'T TALK ABOUT EPSTEIN! DON'T TALK ABOUT EPSTEIN!! DON'T TALK ABOUT EPSTEIN!!! DON'T TALK ABOUT EPSTEIN!!!! DON'T TALK ABOUT EPSTEIN!!!!! DON'T TALK ABOUT EPSTEIN!!!!!! DON'T TALK ABOUT EPSTEIN!!!!!!! DON'T TALK ABOUT EPSTEIN!!!!!!!!
