Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

"This is exactly what I voted for," he said, as they kicked him off a ledge into a mass grave.

JACK SMITH to @repcohen.bsky.social : “I had a duty to protect witnesses in this investigation. Trump suggested one witness should be put to death.”

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

It’s notable that the president can go on TV and be a total gutter racist, and somehow this isn’t news in the slightest. Says a lot about the sickness of American society right now.

Naaaaaaailed it

The one thing authoritarian leaders usually have going for them is the general apathy of the majority when they make a move solely against a marginal group in society. But when they occupy an entire city with clumsy, brutal force, that just forces everyone out of that apathy.

They are the Death Eaters. They are the Galactic Empire. They are Sauron and Saruman. They are HYDRA. They are Ingsoc. They are the Republic of Gilead. They are the Capitol-dwellers.

“.. Federal agents grab a woman to drag her away from her car, days after an ICE agent fatally shot Renee Nicole Good, in Minneapolis, Minnesota.” @reuters.com

checking in on the president of the United States

Dr. @timothysnyder.bsky.social has written many powerful works, but this one stopped me dead in my tracks when I first read it. Please take the time, and share widely.

DAVE MATTHEWS: “I don’t want my taxes to pay for masked thugs to roam our streets & terrorize our communities... She was trying to get away. He shot her 3x in the head. Murdered in cold blood. They’re trying to tell us not to believe what we see. FUCK ICE.” (H/T @marcofoster.bsky.social )

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you." The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?" "Learned what?" she asks Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

The most enlightening and disappointing thing to come out of this ICE shooting is that the right legitimately does not give a fuck about human life if it harms their political narrative. Watching people malign a 37 year old mother for being murdered by her country is insane.

🇺🇸 MINNEAPOLIS VETERAN: "They are terrorizing the population, in Afghanistan we never wore masks.” (From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social )

The #epstein files search function is broken. Search for "Mar-a-Lago" turns up . . . nothing. And yet, in this doc:

omg this feels like waiting on concert tickets . . .

@vanityfair.com this is s a v a g e

With a tip o' the hat to the OC creator, whomever that might be . . .

I know Chomsky's name is mud rn because Epstein, but he had an interesting take on this. He said Trump was the "worst criminal in history"; worse than Hitler, Stalin and Mao—because he was "dedicating his efforts perfectly consciously to destroying the prospect for human life on earth."

“…Even if they are able to clean up his mess … elect a supremely sane president next, America will NEVER again be a trusted partner. Because there are enough Americans who would vote for him … (again). I couldn't even say anything. She was right. The damage this has done is endless…”

Shout! Studios just made Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas freely available, in full, on YouTube. You can thank me later.

FLORIDA — Woman in scrubs: “I’m a U.S. citizen! Why are you doing this to me??”

Can someone put some measles or hepatitis in his water or whatever already? In his heroin? You know it'll work.

Nailed. It. This is the kind of man you want leading your country.

Trump won't pardon turkey because it was not a Jan. 6 insurrectionist. 🦃

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.

Every time I hear "J.D. Vance"

Jesse Welles is the spiritual successor to Woody Guthrie.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

“If you’re quiet now, you would’ve been quiet in 1940.”

totally normal. nothing to see here.

1 My sci-fi story is that we're not going to have a capital S Singularity but we're in a slow-rolling singularity right now where objective reality is slowly becoming indeterminate and deep fakes and AI-generated content will be indistinguishable from perceived reality.

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

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Searchable archive of the Epstein documents: journaliststudio.google.com/pinpoint/sea...

Trump spent hours and hours alone with a female child inside a sex trafficker's home who trafficked little girls for sex. Let it bake in your mind. It's a fact that was emailed by the sex trafficker "Epstein" 5 years before Trump became President the first time. 5 years, so this isn't politics folks

It is kind of wild that one of the most evil people you could think of, a child sex trafficker(!), considered *Trump* "evil beyond belief."

And these aren't even the emails they are fighting to keep secret.

holy shit

how I came to be in the Epstein files

Whoaaaaaaaaa
