We Are All That Lady

Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

Weird how The Free Press was able to publish all of these without comment from the Washigton University Transgender Center at St. Louis Children's Hospital.

This sounded better in the original German.

They’re building a white supremacist dictatorship in front of our eyes.

man, George Wallace was more subtle than this

Trump doesn’t care that the font is wrong and it looks tacked on. It’s all part of the cheesy schlock aesthetic they love. No different than this:

Lil’ Far rightists are straight up fascists obsessed with n*zi germany or really their insane fantasy of it. It is supremely dangerous and fucked up

From the right-wing Manhattan Institute's focus group of Gen Z conservatives -- just jaw-dropping stuff. We have a very sick society. www.city-journal.org/article/manh...

Of all the terrible things this administration has done, this is the worst. After Trump Officials Cut Food Aid to Kenya, Children Starved to Death

Christopher Anderson has been doing some heavy lifting for democracy

FOUR new deaths in ICE detention. That puts the total this year at 30 people dead; the highest in ICE's history and worse than even during the COVID years. It's clear that the system is breaking down. Many of these are preventable deaths.

Thanks Olivia! Hope you feel great about enabling your brain worm lover's rise, and taking away needed healthcare for vulnerable children

Lol. They're making a film about the orcas attacking yachts and the orcas are the BAD GUYS?? Talk about a missed opportunity.

Another example of how fucked originalism is as a methodology. Basically directly imports schmittian colonialism into the constitution, like hey there were some white guys who made an apartheid state and hoarded the weapons for themselves and so we have to read it like a settler colonial hoard law

I wish people would decide whether Bluesky users are responsible for the rise of fascism because our engagement with them is so annoying we drove the right wing bananas, or are we responsible because we don’t engage with them at all.

It’s crazy how the “Don’t tread on me!” and “Live free or die” crowd is fine with masked gangs of anonymous armed federal agents hassling, detaining, and assaulting people on the streets “papers please”-style. This feels like the most basic freedom of not living in a fascist police state.

WE NEED TO MAKE THIS POSSIBLE HERE (and not just pontificate on why it would never be possible):

imagine a government that reacted when horrendous shit happens apnews.com/article/aust...

Stephen Miller is employing state terror in service of the open goal of shifting the ethnic mix of the country. In numerous ways he's doing this at the expense of public safety. We spent weeks reporting on Miller's real aims. Here's the result. We hope you'll read: newrepublic.com/article/2041...

Heartbreaking reading www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This NYT story failed the reader by not digging deeper. One subject dropped out of college after one year (five years ago) and lists "Windows" as his skillset. Story should be: young conservatives who blame immigrants for their personal failures and whose lives won't be improved w/ fewer immigrants

This entire weekend

ICE PEPPER SPRAYED A ONE-YEAR-OLD because her mother was filming them.

Elon's little serfs are quite literally begging journalists to come back because every publicly available source of data shows people have fled the platform and young people won't use it. They are literally begging regular people to come back. Don't do it! It is a website by and for actual Nazis!

We need to put GUN BANS back at the center of US gun policy. We don’t have to live in such a gunsoaked, violent, bloody country where children routinely get shot and killed all the time. Stop letting the psychopathic gun lobby limit what’s possible for us. Regulation is good, bans are better.

Ahmed al Ahmed, a Lebanese Muslim who owns a Sydney fruit shop, risked his life to disarm one of the Bondi Beach shooters. His courage gives me hope amidst the horror and darkness. Muslims and Jews are not enemies. Our futures, in the Middle East and beyond, are intrinsically bound. A true hero.

The anti-Semitic mass shooting in Australia will cause a national conversation and policy change. We know this because the 1996 Port Arthur massacre led to significant restrictions on guns. The shooting at Brown will do nothing. We know this because it occurred on the anniversary of Sandy Hook.

We need to put GUN BANS back at the center of US gun policy. We don’t have to live in such a gunsoaked, violent, bloody country where children routinely get shot and killed all the time. Stop letting the psychopathic gun lobby limit what’s possible for us. Regulation is good, bans are better.

It’s worth pointing out that automatic weapons were banned in Australia years ago. Notice that each shot is just one at a time. Imagine how much worse this could have been.

In the darkness, there is almost always light. This was incredible to watch and I add my gratitude for this man’s courageous action.

GUN ABOLITION IS A SENSIBLE RESPONSE TO THE MASS SHOOTINGS OF KIDS We don’t have to live this way. Students at my alma mater Brown did not have to die. Children at Sandy Hook did not have to die. Stop kowtowing to the rapacious gun lobby. Background checks are good, getting rid of guns is better.

GUN ABOLITION IS A SENSIBLE POLICY. WE DON’T HAVE TO LET KIDS GET SHOT ALL THE DAMN TIME

Providence Police just released this video of the person of interest in the mass shooting at Brown University today. Call police at 401-652-5767 if you recognize him. Live updates here: www.bostonglobe.com/2025/12/13/m...

GUN ABOLITION IS A SENSIBLE POLICY. WE DON’T HAVE TO LET KIDS GET SHOT ALL THE DAMN TIME

America is where it is statistically inevitable that many people will endure multiple gun massacres

this country is fucking insane to create a world where children live like this

Absolutely devastated to hear about the active shooter at my alma mater Brown. WE DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE IN A WORLD WHERE KIDS ARE SHOT WHILE TAKING FINALS

Monsanto scientists ghostwrote this paper claiming the company’s proprietary glyphosate & roundup herbicides had no risk to human health. 25 years & 1300 citations later, it has finally been retracted — 8 years after the collusion was exposed. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

Don’t look away. sahanjournal.com/immigration/...

We cannot just accept that “every so often the administration is going to abduct some lawful resident who said something it doesn’t like about Israel or Palestine,” @seth-stern.bsky.social told @wabe.org. “The only way this will stop is if the public won’t tolerate it.”

Misogyny and racism put people's safety at risk and don't lower the cost of living for anyone. Every Trump rally is a Klan rally.

Friendly neighborhood remind that you don’t have to buy or use a Ring. It’s actually neat that we can collectively decide to make this specific nightmare useless.

it's 2025 and the gangly guy who appeared on a few seasons of The Office is now our only mirror to society

Got a new piece out today analyzing the Trump 2025 NSS from the perspectives of white nationalism and conservative ideas about sovereignty. Check it out!

This is unadulterated antisemitism, for the sake of hating Jews for existing and publicly celebrating our holidays. Under the MAGA hat (literally in this case), with over 18k likes.

everyone wants socialism until theyre told its “socialism”

the Netflix merger is horrible, and would only be worse if Paramount took it over. I spoke about its awfulness on Al Jazeera:
