The Raiders are paying Chip Kelly $6 Million a year, making him the highest paid coordinator in the NFL... His offense currently ranks 31st in scoring.

I have never, ever EVER had a canvasser show up in my neighborhood until some Zohran folks stopped by last week.

chan is married to mark zuckerberg, who has helped more than most to destroy US public health & biomedical research capacity, so pardon me if i roll my eyes

Rupert Murdoch was a foreigner too. But he never considered himself a foreigner because he is white.

I'm so glad Lindsey Harding will coach the Lakers at Las Vegas Summer League. She puts in so much work behind the scenes, developing the players.

George Washington used to rotate his enslaved ppl out of PA every six months so they wouldn't become free by PA laws.

Y'all celebratin WAY TOO MUCH. Crediting Bluesky?! Seems very...liberal lol

FINALLY the Clinton Cabal is no longer relevant. Those right-wing "centrist" bastards delivered the presidency to the Orange Idiot by stealing the nomination from Bernie - TWICE. Fuck the "Clinton Strategy", it is just nro-liberalism with a better soundtrack. I despise those shit-stains.

Yeah, y'all scared and purposely distracted over here. Some weak ass hoes, really. At least Twitter aint scared.

history exists

Donald should be teaching Stochastic Terrorism 101. He's a master at it.

one of the many important things I learned from Sylvia Wynter is that capitalism (specifically dispossession by accumulation) is a belief system (not just, say, a social-economic system). it is deified and worshipped. dig this: it’s a religion, faith, theology. we follow it.

Summa y'all's ancestors were some scary ass hoes because summa y'all are scary ass hoes, too.

“You have made progress.” “You are not a danger to yourself or others.” The denial letter from Geneva Moore’s insurer directly contradicted her therapist’s words. Cut off from her treatment program, Moore slid into a monthslong downward spiral. (Published Dec. 2024)

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening historians: that thing is definitely happening star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it news outlets: these protesters are out of control

I can confirm via a friend on the ground that there is a fuckton of gas being deployed at the Spokane blockade.

As someone said prior, the only reason Greta got released is because people were very loud about her specifically. There are still 8 other flotilla members detained, apparently without fresh water in bedbug infested prison. They all deserve to be fought for, too.

God or whatever you refer to... ...is a funny MOFO, you hear me? God's capacity for irony and humor is unmatched.

I know people who claim and write some real LEFIST shit and they're absolutely conservatives at heart. I'm absolutely talking about Black people, BTW. A lot of us are full of shit politically.

People who don't PRACTICE progressive politics are not progressive.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Pentagon says deploying Marines and National Guard to protests in Los Angeles will cost $134 million.

The charges against Prof. Willoughby-Herard were finally dropped yesterday. She courageously defended UCI students against police stifling dissent against Israel's genocide in Gaza. I am inspired by her courage and honored to have represented her in this case. Solidarity with those who fight.

Just gonna leave this here. www.wweek.com/news/courts/... The worker sued privately. There were protests at the local Marriott. There were no consequences.

Rep. Pete Aguilar: "I want to express my severe concern with the deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles without consultation of the state of California...How long will this deployment last?" Hegseth: "60 days."

We are in the middle of an existential battle with an authoritarian regime. Stop calling for “decorum.” Stop blaming the people defending themselves for the violence and abuse. Stop kicking the can down the road and get into the fight. jaredyatessexton.substack.com/p/authoritar...

Imma be honest, when politicians start leading protests I’m bouncing. They co-opt actual causes in the service of their careerism. They should definitely have something to say, but people are looking for someone on a pedestal or stage to be a hero figure, & we are the heroes.

The problem with the so-called "nonviolence" of the Civil Rights Era is that it is misnarrated. The retelling in the "American myth of progress" version of the Civil Rights movement was that it was completely nonviolent. That is not true. Plus let's call it its full name "nonviolent direct action"

The other side wants your 13 year old to work 47 hours a week mining coal or processing chicken parts.

Sly Stone, frontman of hitmakers Sly and the Family Stone, has passed away at the age of 83 years old.

From my perspective things have been heavy for a long time. And it was bound to get heavier for a long time. And the escalation in LA is a moment where shit is popping off & a turning point.

I feel like maybe the framing of Trump sending the military to put down protests as a "feud" between Trump and Newsom is a little weird?

Hmmmmmmm.

Republican lawmakers in Texas are reluctant to impose a proof of citizenship requirement for voting in the state because it would make it more difficult for their own voters to cast a ballot. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

BREAKING: LAPD didn’t just “detain” someone. They surrounded him, beat him, and jumped him — like a gang. On camera. On horses. While he screamed for help. Unarmed. Cornered. Alone. If that’s not state violence, what the fuck is?

Miller wanted violence and resistance in Los Angeles, but he didn’t get violence. So ICE provided it, which means what happens is on them and him. This is why elected Dems urging protesters to stay peaceful is counterproductive; they should, yes, but the message you want to send is ICE started this.

ICE raids in Los Angeles are a declaration of war, & Angelenos are primed for battle, @tinavasquez.bsky.social writes in an op-ed. Immigration & Customs Enforcement sent the city a message when its agents showed up in full force, & that message was responded to in kind by the people of LA.

In the last 20 or so minutes I’ve seen LAPD officers shove women to the ground without provocation, rip a sign out of a man’s hand and then swing a baton into his leg and raise a less-lethal launcher to aim directly at a protester (which I’m 99% is a major policy violation.)

Keep track of every single motherfucker who sides with the fascists over the people. Every politician, every pundit, every personality. People are revealing themselves with every passing second. Look around. See it. And don’t you ever forget it.

Just a reminder that U.S. military personnel, whether in the National Guards or the Marines, are not trained for law enforcement. They are trained to kill, they are remarkably effective at it, and that is why there are such strict legal prohibitions on deploying military inside the United States.
