‘Long COVID can affect any child, even if they had mild or no symptoms when they had COVID-19. Long COVID is common, affecting up to 10% to 20% of children with a history of COVID-19’

At some point, either local law enforcement is gonna have to arrest ICE agents or all the bluster in the world won’t matter.

The obscene face of Christian Nationalism: outlandish untaxed wealth in defiance of Jesus. Oh, and this time, slave laborers, too! Glory! Just remember, for any money you give to Heaven, there is always a 100% handling fee here on Earth.

It’s fun to be writing a book about the great work the Civil Rights Division did in the 1960s to eradicate decades of entrenched segregation, discrimination and violence and then read about how the Division today is busy fighting to protect the privileged from imaginary crimes.

Apple and Google blocked downloads of phone apps that flag sightings of U.S. immigration agents, just hours after the Trump administration demanded that one particularly popular iPhone app be taken down.

This is a declaration they will use federal resources to deploy violence against judges, prosecutors, and attorneys general. There's no other coherent interpretation of the phrasing, including "only remedy," "legitimate state power," and connecting those people with "terror networks."

Absolutely heinous.

Although it raises the problem of how widespread genocide denial remains, I also think that it is further proof that Israel has lost that demographic. I don’t see how that can be reversed, and I suspect it’s partly why Israel has been focusing so much on rightwing Christians.

the decline of organized labor in the US is a large problem

@govpritzker.illinois.gov, please explain this? When were the Illinois State Police federalized and told to take orders from CBP's Greg Bovino? Or perhaps they are present only as props in the Leni Riefenstahl film DHS is creating and things got out of hand?

Fascistic and absolutely unacceptable rhetoric from the unmoored little man who is basically running the federal government right now.

The Israeli government seems to *want* the whole world to hate them. This is awful. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

The cop can't hit his first takedown attempt. That's why he gets so pissed. Against someone who isn't allowed to resist.

“We’re here so that you can protest,” Chicago Police Deputy Chief Gabriella Shemash told protesters.

CPD too, and this is how ICE thanked them bsky.app/profile/unra...

Seriously! The Illinois state police are even helping ICE now. And yet the governor keeps talking and doing little more than that.

A whole lot of words saying you'll do nothing.

Yesterday, Kristi Noem’s and Greg Bovino’s masked agents threw chemical agents near an elementary school, arrested elected officials exercising their First Amendment rights, and raided a Wal-Mart.

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

Genuinely incredible how unprofessional these guys are. One dude yelling in your face and you immediately assault them on camera?

…is not something he is allowed to do. But he’s doing it, so good people have to figure out how to humanely and properly respond. It does not matter what the Supreme Court blesses or doesn’t, just remember: he’s not actually allowed to do this. Not in a truly free nation of laws and order

all the love and solidarity to the good people of the los angeles, dc, Memphis, Portland, and Chicago areas A president of the United States is not allowed to use the US military as his play thing to deploy his gleeful vindictiveness against enemy populations, esp. not of American civilians. This…

“Lorenzo D’Agostino, a journalist and another flotilla participant, said after returning to Istanbul that Thunberg was “wrapped in the Israeli flag and paraded like a trophy” – a scene described with disbelief and anger by those who witnessed it.””

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

Western ‘leaders’ once paraded Greta as a symbol of moral clarity—until she condemned Israel’s genocide. Now they don’t even care about her safety

The New York Times doesn't tell you why the alleged murderer said he sent pizzas to the victim's house just before he ran down the girl and her best friend. He said on video that he was getting revenge for social media comments about death of Charlie Kirk.

Reminds me very much of the pogroms organized by white conservatives in the early-mid 20th century, which were just as much opportunities to loot & plunder radicalized & esp Black communities as they were opportunities to wield repressive & exploitative violence.

I spoke to a Venezuelan woman who was arrested in this raid and later released with her 4yo son. She said agents broke down their door, pointed guns at them and made sexualized remarks about Venezuelan women. When she returned to her apartment it was boarded up and all her possessions were gone.

Wow, they did all that and got *two* suspected gang members? Suspected? Wow. And two of them? Wow. Plus a guy with a previous charge of marihuana possession? Wow. Wow, that is impressive. Wow, when are we throwing these heroes a parade? Wow.

They spent millions, swarmed an entire building, terrorized and abused an entire community in the middle of the night, traumatized men, women, and children and ended up with “two suspected gang members”?

Nuance is needed. For example: The impact of beef, then pork, is much greater than other meats Not everyone eats the same amounts (see below). And we have to stop just wasting it! An estimated 40% of the food we create is wasted. SO many ways to improve our food system.

Zodiac killer murders again, challenging legal bounds

Reminds me of that old throwaway joke commonly used at roasts: "If you wanted a eulogy, you should have done something about it."

Over 2 million people across Italy have rallied in more than 100 cities for a one-day general strike.

#tdih 1961 McComb, Miss., at great risk, 100+ HS students walked out to protest the expulsion of classmates for sit-in & murder of voting rights activist & farmer, Herbert Lee. Marched to City Hall. While the teens prayed, police beat & jailed them. 🧵 www.zinnedproject.org/news/tdih/bu...

This is such a flagrant violation of every principle of international law and sovereignty that it’s hard to actually believe even when we definitively know it is true (and even when it is consistent with all other behaviours).

#OtD 4 Oct 1936 the Battle of Cable St took place when Oswald Mosley's British Union of Fascists tried to march through East London. They were met by over 100k local workers who fought the blackshirts and the police protecting them, stopping the march workingclasshistory.com/2020/02/17/e...

MSF staff are universally understood to be engaged in an essentially sacred form of work. For a state to nonetheless continuously murder them is a testament to a truly unthinkable degree of depravity. msf.org/msf-denounce...

ICE lied about the person it shot, claiming he was a "criminal," but NBC finds that he had no criminal history whatsoever. Not even traffic tickets in 12 years! It also lied about the extent of the injuries to its agents....

Nothing in ICE’s tweet contradicts anything in my thread. The guy had traffic violations from “years ago”. That does not make him a criminal. ICE does not even try to rebut the other facts bsky.app/profile/davi...

Next year, a lot of folks are going to see their premiums go up $1,000 or more per month because of a Republican policy. If you start having to pay $1,000 extra every month, what will you stop being able to afford? This is what Democrats are fighting to stop.

Republicans fully expected them to cave, but Senate Democrats continue to hold the line to protect our healthcare. Thank you to everyone who is taking action and encouraging your Dem senators to keep fighting to safeguard healthcare for millions. Let’s keep it going: indivisible.org/campaign/sto...

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

The end of due process for immigrants is the end of due process for citizens. Few understand this.
