moments before historical events

Ripped from Reddit r/comicbooks Fantastic Punisher, Wolverine, and Ghost Rider art by Tim Doyle. These have to be seen to be believed. Posted in a thread so I don't lose the alt text 1. #Punisher

okay hear me out

lots of thoughts about what’s been happening, none of them can be published

Remember last week when there were people dismissing the idea they could do illegal things to mess with elections? Days later the administration is using violence from federal agents in the streets as a tool to try and access voter data.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

Do you know how hard it is to get cops to seemingly side with people shot by a bunch of officers

People are nervous about watching video, but this one is not of the murder, it's of the lead up, and people need to see it before the spin takes over.

Learn to shoot guns :)

Another person obviously murdered in public in broad daylight by ICE in Minneapolis. I can't wait to find out from the government why this person is evil and deserved to be executed.

SUNDAY: I'll be streaming with the remarkable Paul F Tompkins! Make sure to tune in January 25 at 7 PM CT on Twitch or YouTube! Drop any questions you think I should ask below! @pftompkins.bsky.social

If every Democrat voted NO on funding ICE, it would not have passed the House. But, 7 House Democrats voted to fund Trump's lawless, masked goons, so it passed. Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his members to vote against ICE funding. Genuinely unforgivable.

bro there’s a gofundme to crowdfund attorney fees for a preschooler who was kidnapped by our federal government and shipped across state lines and his senator is posting about high school hockey while every other elected official is debating whether to give a zillion more dollars to the kidnappers

This is who federal agents are ripping out of their communities and shipping across the country. This is the danger we're being protected from.

I just picture Liam with his mom or dad, picking out that cool Spider-Man backpack, maybe his first, as he was excitedly getting ready to go back to school.

An IRL friend of mine's father was kidnapped by ICE and sent to El Paso. I'm looking for help reaching people in or supporting cases at the El Paso ICE facility. Please let me know (DM) if you can help.

ChongLy Scott "Saly" Thao's family has started a GoFundMe for him:

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.

That's perhaps the oddest roll call I've ever seen for a team book.

If you paint a wall like a tunnel and a bunch of ICE agents crash into it and they all come out of the car bobbing up and down like accordions, you're giving Donald Trump exactly what he wants. You're better than that Minnesota. Don't Give in.

In that situation what *should* happen is that the Democrats, *all of them* decamp Washington and set up a government in exile in Montreal or something, denying Trump and his "Rump Congress" and courts legitimacy. But, like, I've met Democrats. This will not happen. They'll get bullied and like it.

Sorry if I wasn't clear. My response to your question "how can he possibly cancel the midterms?" is "with violence." He can't do it legally. But laws don't stop dictators.

Goddamn these photos are incredible.

it's the big day

For over a decade I have tied my shoes one specific way: Ian's Secure Shoelace Knot. I learned it from Ian (aka Professor Shoelace) whose site is over two decades old. The knot has never failed me. I spoke with Ian about knots and the dangers of the modern internet. aftermath.site/ians-shoelac...

Sound strategic thinking here from Jason Johnson. www.ms.now/opinion/abol...

Listen to your friend, @drjasonjohnson.bsky.social who agrees Dems need to run against ICE or GTFO:

If this dude gets fired we need to support him

Goggins

"i serve the Lord, not a draft-dodging coward" is the kind of phrase that would be slightly cringe online and is incredibly badass when being stated by a man surrounded by armed men threatening to murder him

That poor woman that hid in a house sobbing while ICE threatened her and the people helping her has a GoFundMe here: www.gofundme.com/f/helping-a-... Was set up by the one who helped, and has set up the woman as the beneficiary.

If there’s a better obituary for an evil cartoonist than an A.I. generated version of his character that fucks up the defining detail of its design, I can’t think of it. No notes. 👨🏻‍🍳 💋

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.

still standing up for being mealy-mouthed in an era where the republican president is a brain melted fascist ogre who says things every single day that were politically unspeakable not even ten years before is a complete failure of imagination

they abolished the department of education, we do not need a trojan horse to abolish ice we can just do it

dumb nazi bitch lmao 😂

[government goes Hitler mode] Moderate Conservative Guy - how could it go Hitler mode? The president doesn’t have any facial hair at all. All of the other conservative guys: man, it sure is nice to have a Hitler in charge

warning people "don't take the bait" or there will be a violent crackdown and the "bait" is people being killed and disappeared and terrorized

there is no positive route forward for the United States without mass arrests and trials for DHS employees

Long past time to start saying “these freaks want to live in Hell”

Renee Nicole Good was a hero of our nation and a true patriot, and I'd better not see y'all sharing any of the defamatory crap that the administration will no doubt manufacture or dig up to harm her family and her legacy and her memory. We must honor her with resistance.

Two queer women with a 6 year old in school today stopped to film ICE and for their bravery ICE agents murdered one before the other’s eyes. The grief in the survivor’s voice is a knife to the gut. Destroying people and their bonds is what ICE has always done.

Something that comes up a lot in my head.

rest in peace, Mike one of the funniest dudes on SA and Twitter - but also an incredible craftsman I think about this post of his all the time

You know in movies where they kinda wipe their hand gently over the face of a dead guy and it closes their eyes. It would be a good gag if they did that on a guy with glasses. Either his eyes close or the glasses turn into sunglasses.

Y’all ever walk into a public restroom and immediately whisper “Jesus Christ”
