It’s almost like they were prepared.

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland. Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

We teach children to pass exams, not to understand power. No civics. No politics. Little room for curiosity or imagination. So people leave school trained to comply, not to question. That isn’t education. It’s preparation for silence.

#CurrentlyReading How To Stand Up To a Dictator By Maria Ressa Democracy is fragile. An urgent cry for readers to recognize & understand the dangers to our freedoms. In telling her courageous story, Ressa forces readers to ask themselves: What are you willing to sacrifice for the truth? #booksky

ICE THUGS arrested a pastor & kept asking him "Are you afraid?" numerous occasions. The pastor said NO. Eventually the THUGS let him go stating that "You're WHITE, you're no fun to us!!" This is how sick & deranged these THUGS are, thanks to this REGIME‼️ youtu.be/lcSOyVrc5HM?...

I heard a good point. If that officer felt “threatened” by that lady such that he had to kill her, he is too fragile to be a cop.

Data used as the basis of the government's program to support children with autism will not be finalised nor available until the end of 2027, 18 months after the program is due to have launched, reports Rick Morton. satpa.pe/7gtMuVM

Giving up in advance is exactly what authoritarians want you to do. Because they know that giving up gives them more power that they don't actually have. They're counting on people's apathy and nihilism to help them. Doomerism is not helpful.

The murder of Renee Good by ICE has shocked the nation. The President is deploying his own personal armed thugs into the streets of America. In all my years, I've never seen anything like it. (ft. W. Kamau Bell)

“Uruguay did what most nations still call impossible: it built a power grid that runs almost entirely on renewables—at half the cost of fossil fuels. The physicist who led that transformation says the same playbook could work anywhere—if governments have the courage to change the rules.”

Reports and videos show ICE agents asking American citizens whether they’ve “learned their lesson over the last few days” are deeply troubling. Language like this implies intent and raises serious questions about premeditation and mindset on the scene.

Rep. Angie Craig: "We were told because this facility is being funding by the 'Big Beautiful Bill,' not the congressional appropriations act, that we would not be allowed to enter the facility. That's complete nonsense ... I informed them they were violating the law. They said they didn't care."

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

AOC excoriated Vance here. Let’s see how the American public responds to Vance's “we believe young mothers should be shot in the street” political slogan. After this week, that line will forever and always be JD's rallying cry.

A Civiqs Poll this week revealed that support for abolishing ICE is at an all time high among Americans.

at some point we're gonna have to have a real conversation about why we're still paying federal taxes to a regime that isn't using them to help anyone, but instead is using them to brutalize us

I called Donald Trump a fascist as early as 2017, and I still wish that I was mistaken about it. We handed immense power to a purely evil person, and he's destroying us.

I, for one, cannot understand why men like Rupert Lowe are opposed to banning X, despite it assisting sex offenders, paying people to invite the foreign powers to invade the U.K, and allowing state-sponsored cyber warfare against our democracy. It's a real mystery...🤔

Russia launched a ballistic missile capable of carrying nuclear warheads last night- WAPO Putin keeps testing this weapon for a reason. This is a low orbit weapon and it's extremely expensive to fire at low reward targets. He's planning on firing tactical nukes soon.

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

GET HIM OUT OF OUR POLITICS!

We are not here to debate. We are here to dismantle. ICE’s violence is not “unfortunate.” It’s intentional. It’s deadly. This weekend — we gather to demand accountability — and to build power. #ICEOutForGood social.demcast.com/s/G9n7pPTc

If enough people fight back, YES! But the way things are going, Yarvin, Vought, Miller, Thiel, L.Ellison, et. al, are getting a LOT of the things they want; www.newyorker.com/magazine/202... www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024... brooklynrail.org/2025/02/disp...

No words. 💔 #Justice4Renee

This image is making the rounds on the Internet, but I am repeating it anyway since EVERYONE NEEDS TO SEE IT. (I don't know who originally made it, but hats off to them!) This BBC article includes a link to the video of Renee Good's last words: www.bbc.com/news/article...

I'm seeing LOTS of #SocialCohesion. In support of Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah and the Palestinian people! AND oppn to Israel's ongoing genocide! I'm pretty sure that's NOT the "social cohesion" some people were hoping to promote. 🤔 #auspol #nswpol #AdelaideWritersFestival #EndTheOccupation #FreePalestine

JD Vance always articulates the thought pattern of an authoritarian dictatorship, while ridiculing the values of a democracy.

Do yourself a favor & please consider taking the time to listen to Heather Cox Richardson’s YouTube video below. Powerful message. Take a listen.👇🏼 youtu.be/bU-H4vFjM98?...

… is it true #PMalinauskas you put pressure on the #adelaidefestival Board for weeks to dump #DrRandaAFattah from #adelwritersweek ??? If so resign now, you have destroyed a world-class arts festival & shamed our SA State #SAparli #Auspol #Censorship

100%. We’ve seen the dossiers on individual targets that get compiled and sent to institutions in coordinated assaults. They’re incredibly detailed. The intended effect is overwhelm, and most institutions are not equipped to understand or resist it.

The Palestine Centre for Prisoner Studies has reported that Israeli occupation forces carried out 150 arrests of Palestinians during the first week of 2026, as part of an ongoing policy of escalation. Read: www.middleeastmonitor.com/20260109-150...

Again: the bullies doing this don't give a fuck if this destroys the Adelaide Festival as a whole. None of them could give a shit. Bending to their demands while letting them stay anonymous means they'll do it again and again.

The American government has gone completely rogue and should be considered armed and dangerous to the entire American population. This is NOT normal, not acceptable, and most importantly, it's NOT LAWFUL. TEST ME, TRY, SEE IF IM STEERING YOU WRONG.

Kaitlan Collins: You called Trump on the phone about Nicolas Maduro. Zohran Mamdani: It was not too different than our other conversations, it was honest and brief. I made it clear that I oppose regime change, oppose his actions and that they violate international law.

We know the playbook at this point - DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin will say the driver was trying to run over the immigration agent.

My anger at having to stand outside my kid’s school for two hours to ensure none of their classmates, parents, or teachers get kidnapped by my own government is only slightly tempered by the amazing outpouring of support from other parents and especially neighbors who stand against this bullshit.

So. We've learned a little more about the shooting, namely that witnesses report that the two ICEholes that got out of the truck gave the driver conflicting orders; one to leave and one to get out of her vehicle. First, here is DHS Use of Force policy in full. 🧵 www.dhs.gov/sites/defaul...

Walz: "I couldn't help but think, and it scares me a bit -- 'The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most important directive.' It certainly feels like that in this moment."

Please share this with people you think should be aware. Thank you.
