Pastors working for ICE Sex workers running mutual aid for immigrants Which one looks more like Jesus???

In Trump's telling, the US are the equivalent of the Nazis

I recently met a widowed 71-year-old woman still working two jobs and living at an extended-stay hotel because even two jobs don't pay her enough to afford rent. This is what "one more year of work" looks like in America.

If you’re a sitting member of Congress and not reacting to this speech by calling for immediate impeachment, removal and conviction, why are we paying you?

See how easy that was? How clear he was? How calmly he delivered the message? How coherently he then contextualized his answer to quickly explain his simplest arguments? Your opponents are violent, untrained, unchecked, fascist cowards. It should not be hard to speak out clearly against them.

I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there. I need you to listen to these people. STOP USING AI. STOP SUPPORTING AI.

Happy MLK Day. It is crazy how MLK's views on the white moderate are still true today. The white Moderate: The Greatest Threat to Freedom Source: Letter from a Birmingham Jail

The more I think about this, the angrier I get. It takes a particularly virulent strain of sociopathy to sit and let hard-working people serve you a meal knowing that you plan to arrest them and send them off for deportation once they're off of work. Really depraved shit.

It is rare that I dredge up old news but this woman hurt too many good people in this community to be allowed to slither her way back in. "But she was nice to me!" Yeah, she was nice to me too. Because she wanted something & when she didn't need something from me, I didn't exist to her.

ICE and other federal agencies are exploiting legal uncertainty to buy our personal information from data brokers without a warrant. Congress must act now and protect our right to privacy.

George Jackson, writing this sometime around 1970 before he was murdered by the police, gave us the advice we need now:

Seeing Zohran instantly getting a bunch of shit done in like a week makes you realize that politicians could always do that on some level if they wanted it bad enough and very few of them actually do.

Even if they are not citizens of the US, this shit is illegal. I need folks especially politicians to stop drawing that line. It doesn't matter and should not matter. JUST BE DECENT AND PROTECT PEOPLE!!

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

It's worth your time to call Hilton to cancel your account with them. 1-800-446-6677. Here's why: They asked me if it was because of the ICE thing. I said it was. Then they suggested I wait a couple days to see if they were going to change course. The pressure is getting to them. Let's keep it up.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said. That is called murder when they do that. Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

If anything, he was trained to murder.

"I was totally going to agree with you that oppression is bad, but then you said 'fuck', so now I have to oppose basic human rights."

Was I too over the top when they asked for my feelings on the matter?

UBISOFT would rather shut down entire studios than pay their staff fair wages or benefits

ICE shoots into vehicles because nobody's actually pulling weapons on them. But they know a vehicle can be considered a deadly weapon in court, and it's the only justification they're gonna find for what they're obviously itching to do.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

A Black man named Keith Porter was shot and killed by an ICE officer on New Year’s Eve. Marimar Martinez was shot five times by an ICE officer in Chicago who went on to brag about leaving seven holes in her body. This is not new but it is expanding.

There are more of us than there will ever be of them.

Every country needs to be following Finland's lead here. Media literary skills are going to be crucially important in the age of AI, where knowing what's real and what's not is going to be increasingly difficult apnews.com/article/fake...

my 75yo mother told me last night that she’s planning to delete Instagram and Facebook because she’s sick of not being able to tell what’s AI and what’s not, and I genuinely don’t think tech companies have reckoned with this kind of move as an actual possibility

If you’re a talented painter of minis, this is a once in a lifetime dream job.

Congress is debating the Kids Online Safety Act — an overbroad bill that risks censoring everything from jokes and hyperbole to useful information about sex ed and suicide prevention. This isn't about safety, it's about control.

If this is your first time watching the US invade a sovereign nation based entirely on a personal grudge held by a small group of morons, here’s a piece of advice from an Old Fogey: A regime can be run by horrible people and it can STILL be wrong to invade their country.

The wisdom of Mr. Rogers is eternal:

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month. It’s about oil and regime change. And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

It's been a rough year.

This thread is keeping track of misinformation circulating about the US' attack on Venezuela. A must read!

They are able to buy medical debt for just over 1.5¢ per dollar. They spent 10 mil to relieve 642 mil of debt. Every state should be doing this and maxing it out within the debt relief org’s normal rules.

This past weekend we had dinner with our friend who is a Sbux union leader. She clued me into 3 things. Starbucks has not signed a contract with the workers for 4 years. Starbucks has more union violations than any other company in the US. Shareholders are demanding they settle. Keep boycotting.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.” What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.” Funny how that works.

This is fucking trash.

This Nazi passed a bill to imprison trans kids' parents two weeks ago.
