Gamergate never got the attention it deserved It’s a significant story and folks unfamiliar should Google Karen’s work on it

We need to support this group.

Solidarity with all workers, but the UFW is not involved or engaged on this.

Russia attacked Ukraine on Friday with the largest number of drones and missiles launched in a single barrage so far in the war, the Ukrainian Air Force said, just hours after a phone call between President Trump and President Vladimir Putin of Russia. Read more: https://trib.al/OO1CrJa

The assassin 1) had ties to New Apostolic Reformation & 2) allegedly had hit list In 2022 I went to New Apostolic Reformation conference (where Trump Jr & Roger Stone spoke) A speaker projected this image, prophesying “Angel of death” would visit these Dem political opponents. It was a hit list

Is it possible that Trump totally gets away with flip-flopping because it wouldn't actually be popular for him to go through with everything he says? ICYMI @jilldlawrence.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/no-kings-t...

just watched this netflix documentary on the oklahoma city bombing and once again i'm struck by how so many of the popular media takes on this event just avoid entirely the connection to organized white supremacism

The parade today by contrast moves west to east, outside to in. It starts at the Pentagon not Arlington National Cemetary. It follows the symbolic route of troops entering to quell or occupy the city, not leaving with love and thanks. 8/

If you don't prepare for police aggression, they could hurt you. If you help your friends prepare for police aggression, they could arrest you. This sends a clear message: they don't want you to resist at all.

Every organization that chooses silence in this moment is on the side of fascism.

Pretty much everyone hates the “Big Beautiful Bill”, but it will pass just the same. The only person whose opinion matters to the weakling Republicans in Congress is Trump’s. poll.qu.edu/poll-release...

More performative BS from Pam Bondi. January 6th is NOT the LA protests. Don’t let her lies stand without pushback.

lol ABC News just fired Terry Moran when these people pretend in 10-20 years that they did their best to stop what's happening during the press tour for their memoirs feel free to ignore them

I think what we are seeing and are about to witness more of is truth about how little the right actually believes in America and what we claim it stands for. How they’ve never gotten it, and how much their patriotism is bullshit and built on lies they’ve told themselves. 🧵

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

“Does refusing to hire a Holocaust denier as a member of Harvard’s history department faculty count as an ideological limit test?” Takano asked. Replying, McMahon said: “I believe that there should be diversity of viewpoints relative to teachings and opinions on campuses.” CC: ADL, Elise Stefanik

Today I learned that the blue blood “patron saint of American Conservatism,” Bill Buckley, spoke Spanish as his first language until the age of 8 or so because he was basically raised by a Mexican woman employed by his wealthy parents.

If anyone wants to read nonfiction about WWII instead of a novel, I highly recommend Bloodlands by Timothy Snyder. As with The Winds of War, I read Bloodlands years ago and it’s next on my list to re-read. There is a lot of historical harmonizing going on.

Hello! 👋🏻 I keep forgetting I have an account over here. Is engagement and interactions for normal people accounts still low?

McIver's "detention-center visit reveals a hidden truth: Trump has very real reason to fear Democrats poking around private detention centers."

Unreal. The Trump administration is disappearing migrants to places that aren't even their origin countries, then refusing to say which countries they were sent to by claiming this is "classified," then refusing to say *why* the info is classified:

⚡️ Russia declares Amnesty International an 'undesirable organization.' Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated Amnesty International as an "undesirable organization," effectively banning the global human rights group from operating in the country.

It would be a great moment for literally anyone to do major reporting on the cuts to cancer research but why engage with material realities when you can play imagination games instead?

“[T]heir trading activities since the competition deadline appear to imply a low conviction in the long-term potential of the president’s coin as an investment asset.” 😱

Via @ashleymurray.bsky.social: The massive deal squeaked through on a 17-16 vote, with four far-right panel members voting “present.” They were Reps. Josh Brecheen of Oklahoma, Andrew Clyde of Georgia, Ralph Norman of South Carolina and Chip Roy of Texas. All four voted no on the bill Friday.

It’s officially been two months since the Senate passed a simple fix to let DC access its own tax dollars. Instead of passing this completely free fix, House Republicans are sitting on their asses and prolonging pain for hundreds of thousands of DC residents.

I real thought the Trump’s face on giant banners phase of our North Koreaization wouldn’t hit until his military parade.

Andry Romero, a young gay man, was given an asylum appointment by the U.S. Government. When he showed up to the appointment we kidnapped him and sent him to a foreign prison. I asked Secretary Noem to check if he’s alive. Her response was shameful.

Maybe Democrats need to get Springsteen to speak at one of their retreats and not another New York Times columnist.

that’s deliberately degraded food and drug safety regulations, air traffic control systems, and the security of personal data held by the govt, that’s crusading against America’s world-beating university system, that’s trying to obtain territorial concessions from our longtime military allies, …

…, that’s encouraging a completely avoidable measles epidemic, that’s tearing the guts out of scientific research nationwide, that’s inaugurating a golden age for predatory lenders and financial scammers, that’s deliberately destroying NATO, that’s wholesale abandoning climate change policy,…

We have a govt that’s engaged in human trafficking, that’s openly allowing a gulf petrostate to bribe its leadership, that’s reshaping the refugee program in overtly racist terms, that’s almost ended American foreign aid entirely, that’s doing its level best to crash the economy from the rose garden

Query: if you know of a major news outlet that has put the situation anywhere close to this plainly (not punditry: reporting) please point me to it. I haven't seen it. The U.S. has been taken over by a corrupt, authoritarian regime run by malevolent lunatics, and they're not even reporting it

It is too horribly perfect that Musk's Grok is spewing racist inanities while fueled by huge methane generators that are menacing the health of Memphis's Black communities.

19 years of them, and today is my last “last day of school”…

Pete Hegseth has to get warfighters who do back exercises. Push-ups are mostly chest, and when a jet is falling off the carrier you have to pull.

Just so we are all clear, when Trump demands we sacrifice for his economic plan (1) there is no plan, just corruption & stupidity (2) there is no possibility of anything good happening to US (3) his goal is for workers to get low pay, long hours, no job security, no safety regulations, no healthcare

This is what I mean when I say transphobes don't oppose "males" in "women's spaces"--they oppose trans women specifically and hope that disgust of us will help police how all women look and behave
