#MattWallace @mattwallace88.bsky.social on X: I was watching the video #BenjaminNetanyahu just posted and I noticed something that freaked me out 😳 Did #MikeHuckabee ’s face glitch on camera? #AI #Slopaganda #DeepFake #Israel #Huckerbee #Netanyahu #AUSPOL #Mileikowsky

Swalwell: "We have a 70-plus-year history of failure not just in Iran, but all over the world, of trying to force regime change. By the way, it's being led by a guy who has more plans for the ballroom he's trying to build than anything he's gonna do next in the Middle East."

Netanyahu is likely dead. When AI videos first came out, I was duped by some of them, so I taught myself how to recognize AI photos and videos. The videos of Netanyahu since March 12 are ALL generated by AI. I will not believe he is alive until he appears in LIVE footage with live questions. 🧵

I spent hours last night analyzing all the videos of Netanyahu put out in the last week, and every single one is AI generated. It's not proof that he is dead, but the fact Mike Huckabee lied about a meeting with Netanyahu today makes it highly likely that Bibi is dead. About 80% probability IMO.

Know your history. Jimmy Carter went on to build more affordable homes than any other president.

Anyone else had this song stuck in their head? "Just love those laser guided bombs They're really great For righting wrongs You hit the target And win the game From bars 3,000 miles away 3,000 miles away We play the game With the bravery of being out of range..." www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDFT...

Please read this article and submit a comment on this BLM proposal. This administration wants to log some of the last Old Growth forests in Oregon. They are trying to do it without any public hearings, as quickly as they can, before people notice the destruction has started...

Reading people. Body language. Knowing how to connect with people totally unlike you and with different backgrounds and beliefs. Defusing tense situations. Gaining trust. High endurance, pain tolerance, and work ethic. Reaction time. Prioritizing order of execution. Anticipating people’s needs. Tons

Facts

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration. But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants. The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

RFK Jr: "Two weeks ago we ended, under your leadership, a twenty year war on women". Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders. What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

We now have an unprecedented level of income & wealth inequality. It isn’t acceptable that the top 1% owns more wealth than the bottom 93%, while a majority of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. We must stand together & create an economy that works for all, not just the few.

EPSTEIN BOMBSHELL: my staff is releasing a new report showing JPMorgan Chase executives – all the way to the top – enabled Epstein's sex trafficking operation. You're going to want to read this.

Why would the DOJ scrub the fact that right-wing extremism is the #1 domestic terror threat in America? Why not acknowledge and confront it? Also why haven't they released the Epstein Files? Also why did Ghislaine Maxwell get a sweetheart deal transfer? These problems won't go away.

Trump: I deserve a Nobel Peace Prize Also Trump: I declare war on 5-sided regular polygons because I got that answer wrong on a test in high school!

It isn’t normal for a president to repeatedly threaten the use of military force against American citizens. Treating the National Guard as a political pawn disrespects those who serve and undermines public trust in our military.

We need to take care of each other, and also to broaden the scope of ”each other”

Get this game into the Olympics, I'm begging.

I took a screenshot before Trump's goons come in and delete it cuz it's on congress's official website but yeah red states are way more violent in every metric even if you take out the big cities. www.congress.gov/118/meeting/...

Follow the money! Thank you Senator Wyden! #epstein #epsteinfiles

I just cancelled my Paramount+ account because of what they are doing to Stephen Colbert. I'm also boycotting CBS, which is really easy for me because their content is sub-par.

Repost from @resistancerangers.bsky.social on IG- I know we're about to declare war with Iran, and there are so many fronts to this continuing shitzkrieg, but this one, this right here, hurts my little raccoon soul most. For the love of all that's green and blue, keep calling. 💚🌲🌊💙

Ages 0-4 are the most important, emotionally & intellectually, in human development. Yet, in the US, we have a very high rate of childhood poverty and a broken child care system. Congratulations to New Mexico for leading the way forward for high quality, free child care. Other states must follow.

As we head into a new week, please remember that your best each day is good enough. Be kind to yourself and to others. And make time to rest - mentally and physically - for you cannot pour from an empty pot. Carry this Cornish sunset with you, if you need some calm. 😊 #life #calm #peace #sunset

Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski says the quiet part out loud: “We are all afraid… I am oftentimes very anxious about using my voice because retaliation is real.”

Opinions. You should do this. You should do that. You must be this this. You must not be that. Then they talk of freedom. There is no freedom is someone else’s cage. If you are what came before? Who are YOU? Religion. Ideology. All someone else’s idea of what is. I think box is

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act. Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes? Staffer: a DL and birth certificate. Me: The documents don’t match Staffer: Then a marriage certificate. Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too? Staffer: No Me: See the problem?

Republicans are about to give more tax breaks to billionaires and pay for it by gutting child care for thousands of families. Today I'm introducing legislation with @warren.senate.gov to invest in child care. Because Congress should be focused on helping families not billionaires.

This was a rough week for me, and today it hailed on the new grass seed that I planted a few days ago... That's why it was so meaningful for me to watch the eclipse in a clear sky tonight. Seeing it was a nice reminder of the bigger picture. Tonight is a great night to be an earthling...

Ron Wyden 202-224-5244 Jeff Merkley 202-224-3753 Both are publicly voting NO on the spending bill, as far as i can tell only Merkley is publicly saying he's a no on Cloture. good to give them both a call thanking them / asking Wyden to vote No on Cloture.

The people were ALWAYS going to have to lead the way. The movement is not the party. The PEOPLE are the movement. Is anyone really surprised? The answer is in organizing. Not in hoping that feckless politicians will grow backbones.
