🔥 From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social : “This is nuts. What the fuck is going on? I’ve never protested in my life… they tell you it’s immigrants — it’s fucking anybody. They’re just trying to scare people. I’m not paid to be here. I have to work in the morning. This is wrong.”

Election Night 2024 hundreds of thousands of Kamala's votes disappeared multiple times in multiple states. That's not supposed to happen. The process is additive. Precinct counts should go up, not down when new batches are counted. How did it happen? open.substack.com/pub/thiswill...

Simply Dems can be both warriors for working people *and* patriotic defenders of democracy/freedom. Those counseling "message discipline" on inflation/health care are wrong. It's not what the data tells us now, and it makes us look timid, weak. 8/ www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/in-2026-de...

These people should be alive. Call your senators and representative. Tell them to fight harder to block ICE and cut funding - even if you think they already agree. #GetIceOutForGood

Thank you @indivisresistcoco.bsky.social for including these memorials for all 34 people dead at the hands of ICE. #GetIceOutForGood

Our #iceoutforgood protest today included a Signs of Fascism/Signs of Democracy demonstration. The murder of Renee Nicole Good, and the justification of it by the current administration, is intended to tell us that dissent will be punished. We won't be silenced. @indivisible.org

Our country is in a constitutional crisis. It's time to take our democracy back. That is why we are proud to announce a new initiative, Unite and Rise 8.5. Through this initiative, we will engage and mobilize 8.5 million voters to protect and preserve our democracy. ➡️ lwv.org/uniteandrise

Let's hope @rbreich.bsky.social is right and that the US will finally take a long, hard, look in the mirror. The "American Dream" they've been sold since Reaganomics is actually a dystopian nightmare.

"In that sense, the “Alts” are not a curiosity of social media. They are a signal — that even under pressure, civil society can reconstitute itself, find new forms, and push back. That is not just encouraging. It is essential." #holdfast #altgov open.substack.com/pub/steadyst...

At the start of 2025, we knew this movement would play a pivotal role in the fight against authoritarianism. Still, we’re blown away by the level of commitment and dedication you have shown throughout a difficult year. Thank you for reminding the regime that power still belongs with the people.

Respectfully, Jon [email protected] and podsaveamerica guys: everything Putrino said. You could do a lot worse than having David on to talk about #LongCOVID and Peter Hotez to talk about the weaponization of masking and vaccines to disrupt American society.

I learned a bit more today about the legalities associated with the US illegal Carribean boat strikes on civilians from watching this video from a candidate for Senate from South Dakota. Probably smart he’s running as an independent in that state.

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey. This isn’t controversial. A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

Contempt and a day in jail—at least. Then there’s a chance his conduct can be stopped. Fail to jail a man like this doing something like this and he’ll start doing things 500% worse. If Trump had been jailed for his NYMA Attempted Murder, none of what’s happened would’ve happened.

The US is the world's largest oil and gas producer. Yet, "China is now making more money from exporting green technology than America makes from exporting fossil fuels."

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.
