👇 True!

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people. But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

First-time protesters flood streets nationwide. Not activists—ordinary people who've seen ICE murder their neighbors. This movement doesn't ask permission. It demands: STOP FUNDING OUR KILLERS. Senate Democrats: HOLD THE LINE! #ICEoffOurStreets

No arrests of the ICE thugs who murdered Alex Pretti, Renee Good, or Keith Porter. No arrests of anyone in the Epstein Files. But they arrested Don Lemon because of his journalism.

Statement from CNN on the Don Lemon arrest:

Stop what you're doing and join. Text, call, speak to those around you, spread the General Strike. NO WORK NO SCHOOL NO SHOPPING NO BANKING #3E #GoodvsEvil #generalstrike #NationwideStrike #iceout #justiceforpretti #justiceforgood

HAPPENING NOW: KNOXVILLE/KNOX COUNTY students walk out to protest ICE (H/T @votegloriaj.bsky.social )

We are being trained to accept things that would have been unthinkable a few years ago. Federal force used casually & defended reflexively. Legal limits dismissed as technicalities. Open talk of dictatorship reframed as realism. None of this is normal. And none of it is accidental. -- George Conway

Citizen journalists are invaluable, writes Mark Hertsgaard of @coveringclimatenow.org. Without their presence, the public and the rest of the media would be ignorant of pivotal aspects of the story unfolding in Minneapolis. www.thenation.com/article/acti...

🚨 #GVerse A #FuckICE agent rips a phone away from an elderly U.S. citizen, keeping it, and throwing her to the ground when she attempts to retrieve it. No mercy. Identify and prosecute each one of these guys to the FULLEST extent of state law.

Some icy haiku Ice falling from sky ICE killing people in street Coldness covers all The ICE storm arrives Winter of America Winter of the soul Release Epstein files “Distractions” are killing folks No more distractions! Camouflage and mask Is it a good guy or bad No ID; who knows?

FWIW, declaring martial law does not stop elections. Trump abuses his power when people believe he can. If enough of us erroneously believe it, it only gives him more power.

How can the world cup go ahead when citizens/players of 4 qualified countries can't enter the country? And if trump invades Iran what will the impact be for their participation Aren't FIFA pretty big on "no politics" at football?

In a blistering ruling, a Bush-appointed conservative federal judge said that ICE "has likely violated more court orders in January 2026 than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence." Congress must not give one more cent to this rogue agency.

So, anyone who opposes the trump regime is a domestic terrorist, but the guys who sacked the capitol are patriots THIS IS HOW FUCKED UP AMERICA IS UNDER TRUMP ME: ANOTHER DOMESTIC TERRORIST

Deeply inevitable, entirely predicted, and the shit people running this country don't give a damn.

🚨BREAKING: Senate Democrats condemned the Trump administration for crossing a dangerous new line in its effort to seize state voter rolls, warning that the Justice Department is now using coercion and intimidation after courts rejected its legal claims. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

This type of bullshit is beyond ridiculous. How the fuck did Martha Stewart go to fed prison for insider trading and this orange prick makes 100 million on these types of deals and NO ONE fucking points this out. If Biden/Obama/either Bush did this heads would explode. Ask any AI what this means BAD

"...this is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections.”

Funding for more money for ICE requires 60 votes in the senate. Get on your phones and call your Democratic and Republican Senator with a clear NO. ☎️ Capitol switchboard - (202) 224-3121 www.senate.gov/senators/sen...

Shut DHS down because it was a stupid idea in the first place and has accomplished exactly nothing in its 23 yrs of existence. Shut DHS down for flagrant fraud and abuse. Unlimited taxpayer $$ have gone to enrich private prison companies and brutal bounty hunters. Shut DHS down because it kills.

Yesssss. Separate out DHS and shut it down.

Why is Tulsi Gabbard, the top intelligence officer in the USG, with the FBI on a raid related to conspiracy theories about the 2020 election. The congressional intelligence committee ought to ask about this.

If you aren't familiar with what DARVO is, get familiar with it. "Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender." The govt is relying on DARVO as a tactic on a national scale, and it is also increasingly a conservative tactic to attack outspoken critics of their ideas, theories, & renderings of history.

The New North Flint Food Market is a coop community owned grocery store in Flint MI the community owns the store and the money stays in the community. The prices are way better than BIG box stores. We need to establish more of these stores in our communities Check them OUT northflintfoodmarket.org

1/ This is happening quietly in plain sight. The EU signs a massive trade deal with India. Structural, not symbolic. Nearly a quarter of global GDP, built without the U.S. at the table. That’s not an accident. It’s a signal. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Listen to Senator Chris Murphy. He agrees. bsky.app/profile/greg...

This would be a MAJOR win for Dems. Getting them to separate DHS out of the six-bill funding package means a shutdown wouldn’t risk Head Start, SSI payments, Section 8, NIH, etc. Four days ago, I doubt this would have worked. But with republicans’ backs against the wall, it seems within reach.

If you’re coming from overseas to watch the World Cup in USA please consider boycotting. It’s a country being led by a madman and full of ICE goons. Also, you will be overcharged for really shitty food in the stadiums.

More and more Americans are voicing their outrage at the tactics being deployed by federal agents in Minnesota. But it’s important to understand the broader implications of what this administration is doing, and the threat it poses to the basic freedoms of every American.
