Philadelphia in candlelight. A city paused. Love showed up for Renee Nicole Good.

"law enforcement action" Just completely fell by the wayside. It's full speed ahead on colonial regime change.

What an absolute failure Karen Bass has been. Complete disaster for the city of LA.

404 Media remains one of the few outlets to actually protect and defend adult devs with zero self-consciousness. Bless Sam Cole

they want everyone to believe that resisting a white supremacist race war means the state should kill you and it’s deserved, and it’s concerning every republican on every level believes this now. in 2017 this was being said, but it was still a marginal opinion

got a couple of groypers kicked out of the protest. some girl tried being like “they’re not bothering you though??” and i flipped my lid. if you see fash, you can just scream at them and anyone defending them! it’s an easy way to get the help of folks able to remove them.

“Fuck ICE!” chants & a brass band performing “Which side are you on?” as hundreds march in Manhattan, NYC against ICE and in solidarity with Minneapolis.

I think we should know this guy's name, as well

Honestly think that if you pulled twitter from the App Store and shut it down it would fuck up the entire right wing ecosystem at that point. Like the entire media apparatus would fall apart.

i love the idea of a guy who’s still been on the edge of getting into jeopardy after 61 years of it airing

tip for parent management: my parents were asking me about chatGPT, and have some friends who love it, and none of my attempts to caution them were as successful as just sending them the Wikipedia page for AI hallucinations

more proof that they. don't. care.

Remember, Elon Musk has sued other journalists for daring to question advertisers why they remain on X.

interesting! here's a video i took yesterday of federal agents ramming community members with their car

start with what it is (not what it isn't) focus on why they're lying (not their lies) make it about them (not her) eat their frame

Even if we sort out the fascism, this kind of thing is gonna fuck us HARD

FEDS DO NOT SET THE FIRES UCS DO NOT BREAK THE WINDOWS STOP FEDJACKETING WHAT USED TO BE COMMON NORMAL EXPECTED PROTEST ACTIVITY STOP DOING THE WORK OF THE FASCIST POLICE STATE

this is hilarioussssssssss

There are no short cuts. I'm sorry. There is only long term, consistent, and disciplined organizing.

One of the things that genuinely shocked me as I read through surveillance logs for the police is how much of their energy and attention is dedicated to shutting down vigils and other ceremonies of remembrance.

new @us.theguardian.com A 22 y/o organizer + teacher was arrested on camera during an interview after speaking at a Mich. protest over Maduro's abduction Jessica Plichta says her arrest seems tied to her recent trip to Venezuela as part of an internationalist peace delegation amid Trump's blockade

God I know he was insufferable in law school

Pro tip: if your Mayor or your City Council are talking tough about ICE, demand that they take steps to limit local cops from sharing surveillance data with ICE. If they don't, they're full of shit.

Jeffries dodged when multiple reporter, myself included, ask about using appropriations to rein in ICE

I think a lot of people voted for Trump hoping he'd kill more people than he already has

An Oregon lawmaker is warning of ICE agents posing as utility workers. NW Natural and Portland General Electric have published guidance in several languages on how to tell if a person is actually one of their employees.

Because the woman below survived, the Federal government was obligated to charge her with the crime she was allegedly committing when shot, meaning they had to investigate it. That investigation showed she was innocent. Since Ms Good did not survive, they don't need to investigate what she did.

Kind of feels like people are fucking pissed

There is a big difference between telling a white person who has just experienced their first hint of discomfort at the hands of their country not to lay down in the road and give up... And telling folks who have been targeted by this government for centuries to believe it's abruptly gonna change.

Once you understand that you're dealing with murderous liars, you stop entertaining what they say as possibly credible and legitimate. The fight against them is about stopping them from terrorizing and killing by any means, not winning debates about your reality versus theirs.

Friends, thank you for stepping up! Over $40,000 worth of dash cams have been ordered so far for ICE observers in the Twin Cities! Early orders are trickling in, but we’re getting them packed and deployed ASAFP - several were installed yesterday, these are ready, and 300+ are on the way!

Police procedurals help normalize this FYI

"You deserve to die if you disagree with us" is their position. bsky.app/profile/atru...

No one who doesn't want to be convinced will be moved by the forensic accounts undertaken by the media but it's still good that they offer the accounts. Not because people will be convinced but so that others can tell accurate stories.

We've removed the paywall from this guide so everyone can access it. 👇 Stay safe.

Just seen Grok putting the body of the victim of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis into a bikini. Digital corpse desecration now available to the public.

White men currently make up 8% of the world's population. YOU ARE ALREADY IN THE MINORITY, lol....

You can feel like something is inevitable and still experience shock. Many of us knew something like this would happen, bc things like this have already happened, bc law enforcement functions with impunity, bc ICE kept drawing its guns on observers. But emotional and moral shock can still occur.

The reason overreach is able to happen now is that, when it happened to minority groups that Dems were too cowardly to fight for, they joined with Rs to strip away rights and limit recourse (the Ann Richards/Bill Clinton model). Now, w/ those evil precedents set, chickens are coming home to roost.

So lets be clear: Rn, IRL, as a practical matter, cops are "allowed" to kill ppl if they don't do what they say. George Floyd's death wasn't enough to change that. Perhaps this white mom's death will spur change. But whenever we finally say cops are "not allowed" to do this, it will be a new thing.

Drastically reducing police interactions is vital to public safety.

This is literally what they do whenever a Black person is killed by police. No matter how solid the evidence is, they will keep pushing that lie, not just to poison the conversation and make sure the killer walks free, but to reassert the political idea that these people deserve to be killed.

What can these tools ICE purchased access for do? According to materials obtained by 404 Media: - Monitor a city neighborhood or block for mobile phones - Track the movements of those devices and their owners over time - Follow them from their places of work to home or other locations

SCOOP: 404 Media has obtained material that explains how Tangles and Webloc, two surveillance systems ICE recently purchased, work. One can track phones without a warrant and follow their owners home or to their employer.

It is interesting to note where we are in terms of the dying Empire. We are no longer lying about colonial imperialism and the use of force abroad. We are still lying about the violence being used in the imperial core. One wonders how long that will continue.

Some signs that a nation has gone rogue: 1. Withdrawing from financial support commitments to ally nations. 2. Threatening ally nations with invasion. 3. Invading other nations under thin pretense and stealing their resources. 4. Withdrawing from treaties of international cooperation.
