FÜR die AfD waren in ihrer ganzen Geschichte nie mehr als paar tausend auf der Straße. GEGEN die AfD waren es schon mehrfach mehrere Millionen.

the media repeatedly described the candidates' immigraiton policies by ascribing biden/harris's actual policy to trump, not explaining trump's actual policy and falsely saying biden/harris's policy was "open borders"

There have been dozens if not hundreds of pieces dissecting why women like Heated Rivalry and he just boiled it down to one sentence.

This is one of the most heart-breaking & important articles I have ever read - from someone whose voices are so rarely heard, a teenaged girl. If you want to understand online misogyny in all its devastating impact, please read this shattering piece. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The NY Times dutifully reporting that the Supreme Court sided with Trump only 42% of the time and with Biden 54% of the time sort of leaves out the necessary context that Biden was doing normal, completely legal presidential stuff, and Trump was doing insane crimes

after late stage capitalism comes gambling ?

I’m always heartened to see fair critiques of leftist politicians in office from the left, because the actual embrace of democratic values like holding people in office accountable is one of the key differences between the right and the left

I've been saying it a lot, but these deaths line up with what happened in early concentration camps during other regimes: Deaths from poor conditions, disease, or abuse. These deaths are not accidental. They are the direct result of a camp system that is designed to harm those being imprisoned.

What GLP1s should teach people is that it was never about willpower and it isn't a moral issue. But people don't want to have that conversation.

The left, being actually educated, with enough humanities to have discernment and judgement as well as moral reasoning, is pretty damn good at metabolizing new information. And it sniffed this pile of badly generated shit to discern it’s environmentally & informationally poisonous as hell.

Me at 20: I’ll have it all figured out by the time I’m 40. Me at 40: wtf do you mean they rearranged the grocery store

Working on a research project, and re-reading an article from 2018. This stuck out: "... her call to abolish the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency." Long before it was a popular thing to say among Democrats. www.nytimes.com/2018/06/26/n...

ICYMI: I introduced my Trans Bill of Rights with @markey.senate.gov — legislation to defend trans people across this country as Republicans continue to push anti-trans rhetoric and bills. To our beloved trans community: We see you, we love you, and we will always stand with you.

Anderson Cooper: “So it's more expensive to have a chronically homeless person living on the streets than it is to actually subsidize an apartment for them?” Answer: “Yes, we’re paying more as taxpayers to walk past that person on the street and do nothing…” #HousingFirst

nobody posted the clip anywhere so i went and dug the whole episode up

Fascists only need to win one election to destroy democracy, whereas democrats have to win every election to preserve it. That’s why fascists cannot be allowed into politics, why a tolerant society must never tolerate fascism or it will lose its tolerance. It’s the Popper Paradox and we’re living it

Too often when discussing trans rights, we’re forced to be on the defensive, as Republicans wage attacks. Today, we take the opportunity to look forward by introducing my Trans Bill of Rights, a comprehensive vision to provide protections for all trans and nonbinary people.

Terrible. The bill now goes to the Senate. Make those calls. 202-224-3121 www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

The U.S. is buying banned weapons from Israel that could kill large numbers of civilians long after any war is over. Read more: interc.pt/4ryMh3g ✍️ @dglaun.bsky.social 📹 @jordanuhl.com

Government Shocks Nation With Good Decision

This makes no sense. People need to stop assuming there’s a huge genius strategy behind this. It’s effectively obeying in advance, it empowers evil people with intelligence and guile they lack. They’re doing this because number went up. GPUs are not helpful in that way.

I will not support any funding deal that puts money in the hands of Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, and this violent agency. Defund and abolish ICE now.

Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

NEW: ICE has a plan to lease offices across the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign. Today, @wired.com is publishing dozens of those locations. Many are near schools, medical offices, and places of worship. Vital work from @leahfeiger.bsky.social that I'm proud to publish.

"Eliminate presidential immunity" needs to become as common a refrain as "eliminate Citizens United"

Portugal: Socialist Antonio José Seguro elected president, beating far right

Homestory meets Lifestyle Interview für Chrupalla in der Zeit, später bei Miosga dann die Frage ob Trump ein Vorbild für Deutschland ist. Medienversagen und mutwillige Normalisierung von Rechtsextremismus. Es ist nicht zu fassen.

Concentration camps: “For 280 days we haven’t eaten a single piece of fruit, banana, apple, orange, or anything fresh. We are all in one big room with no doors or windows. We can’t see any grass or trees. We are all constantly sick."

how do you write this story without noting there was a campaign literally called SUBSTACKERS AGAINST NAZIS in…2023

A man taken into custody in Rochester Thursday by federal immigration agents and now held at the Whipple Federal Building in the Twin Cities is a recent organ transplant recipient who is without his needed anti-rejection medication, state Rep. Kim Hicks tells MPR News.

the biden border bill and choosing to run on a “border patrol endorsed” piece of legislation should go down as not only cowardly and backward thinking but one of the worst strategic political decisions by democrats in recent memory, everyone involved should be out of politics forever

The woke left really is outrageous with its cancel culture. Oh wait....

Our founders, though deeply flawed, understood that democracy requires an informed citizenry and a government accountable to it people. That’s why the press is the only profession protected by the Constitution. It’s also why autocrats and oligarchs seek to control and destroy it.

Starbucks workers are asking customers to delete the mobile app amid their ongoing strike to push the corporation to reach a first contract with the union and to stop union busting www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Philidelphia DA Larry Krasner warns ICE: If an agent commits crimes in Philly, I will charge you. You will be arrested. You will stand trial, and you will be convicted in state or federal court and you will do your time. Donald Trump can't pardon you for a state court conviction.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

it's grim, but the reality is that Trump wants more innocent people to die here in the Twin Cities and the GOP majorities in both chambers of Congress are either ambivalent about more lives being taken or outright support it

If Starbucks won’t respect workers at the bargaining table, they don’t deserve our clicks or orders. Our call to action is simple: 📱 Delete the Starbucks app. #DeleteTheApp bit.ly/deletetheapp

If Congress doesn’t act, the last nuclear arms control treaty between the U.S. and Russia will expire. It would pointlessly wipe out decades of diplomacy, and could spark another arms race that makes the world less safe. This piece is worth the read.

Some jawdropping CBP crime statistics here...

a woman reached out to donate 500,000 delta skymiles to get people home to MN as they are released from custody in TX. we're getting flights booked today. it should be enough to get at least 15 people home. delta should be doing for free since they take ICE money.

This should piss everyone off, and our tax dollars paid for this. A massive building purchased by ICE for $70 million in Arizona to “warehouse” immigrants. Calling this “housing” is a lie. This is storage. This is treating human beings like inventory.

Here’s my @thenation.com post on the arrest of Don Lemon, Georgia Fort, the violation of the First Amendment, and Trump’s ongoing attempts to change the face of his victims and spark a race war.

Breaking MS NOW: The Trump admin is now eyeing Ohio for immigration enforcement operations that could begin as early as next week. The operation is expected to target Haitian immigrants — with temporary protected status for Haiti expiring on Feb. 3.

Solidarity with every single person participating in today’s general strike against ICE’s terror campaign. You’re changing the world ✊🏽❤️

Arresting Black journalists is also vice signaling. Their base is racist and hates journalists and they want to get them excited again. The mainstream media industry has never protected Black journalists or journalists of color the way it should.

The nice thing about working in law enforcement is that you get to pick and choose what laws you’re into

No child should live in detainment. No child is illegal. A country that jails children must be stopped.

I am disgusted and outraged by the attack on Rep. Omar tonight while she was doing her job & meeting with constituents. Let’s be clear: nonstop hate and dangerous rhetoric from Trump & his allies has fueled this type of violence. I stand with Rep. Omar. I stand with Minnesota. This must stop.
