Harriet Tubman #quilt by my Mom, Vera P. Hall, who makes quilts celebrating Black people who fought for their own freedom. This seems to be the crowd favorite of the “We Didn’t Wait for Freedom” series. Happy #Juneteenth #quilting

Love seeing these old theaters brought back to life

Every time I post about ICE tactics, I get replies, “This is what I voted for.” Really? You voted for a mother crying for mercy while her child is still in school—about to come out and find her missing? There isn’t another way to go about this that preserves our humanity?

THIS IS ABSOLUTE INSANITY. 👇👇

Happy Juneteenth my beautiful Black people✊🏾💪🏾

And that's the bottomline!

Palestinian and proud!

@umyaznemo.bsky.social following you from that other place!

Flag of Palestine painted on the steps of Piazza Gramsci: women of Orgosolo, Sardinia against the massacre. "Powerless to stop a conflict, but we want to express our dissent with the peaceful tools at our disposal"

We’re announcing new legislation — the No Secret Police Act (SB 627) — to ban local/state/federal law enforcement, w/ some exceptions, from covering their faces when interacting w/ the public & require them to wear identifying info. The secret police behavior we’re seeing destroys trust & must end🧵

I think what I’m most offended by is that Democrats and pundits spent the last 135 month and days arguing about whether or not trans and POC People were divisive And still are Meanwhile the unhinged racists are sta Tying WWIII and shooting protesters and democratic legislators

"Iran doesn't have nukes. Israel does. Iran is a signatory to the NPT. Israel isn't. Israel has allowed IAEA inspectors into its country. Israel doesn't." But Israel is the victim? My video for Zeteo on how the media's coverage of this crisis is abysmal & ridiculously biased. zeteo.com/subscribe

NEW: MyPillowGuy Mike Lindell found liable for defamation for his statements about Dominion Voting Systems executive Eric Coomer. Federal jury orders Lindell to pay $2.3M, far less than the $62.7M requested by Coomer’s attorneys.

Mr. Antiwar President has us inches away from a Civil War at home and a nuclear war abroad in defense of an ally that is starting random hot regional wars to detract from its ongoing genocide. I’m sure all of this will just naturally cool off.

THREAD: The assassinations in Minnesota highlight a dirty secret hardly ever mentioned in the news: U.S. has 1.1 million private police officers. There is an unprecedented footprint of privately organized violence that is doing all sorts of things most people have no idea about.

Bluesky is one of the only major social media sites that still doesn't bury your posts for including news sources or outside links and lets you customize your experience to best suit your mental health. It's why there's an endless stream of opinion pieces about how it's cooked

97% of extremist-related murders in the U.S. in 2024 were linked to right-wing extremists. It’s not a political movement anymore - it’s a hobby for failed men with too much testosterone and not enough brain cells.

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

The MSM should protested too.

political press is doing a real disservice by basically not reporting the nuances of public opinion on deportations, and creating the appearance that most americans support the stephen miller-style gestapo tactics

Honestly I still can’t stop laughing 😂😅🤣

Once again, it wasn’t an immigrant. It wasn’t a drag queen, a refugee, or anyone Fox News tells you to fear. It was a white male. Evangelical. Armed. Angry. The pattern isn’t changing it’s just getting louder. And still, they scapegoat the vulnerable while ignoring the real domestic threat.

The irony of Native Americans having to prove that they belong on land stolen from them because the great-grandchild of a German draft dodger thinks the United States belongs to only white people.

Whoa! Hats off to ABC News reporter Matt Gutman for keeping his cool yesterday. This LAPD officer needs to be relieved of duty if he can’t handle an alleged “touch” without snapping.

Thank you! @jamellebouie.net Unless it is the main focus of a piece, media avoids explicitly mentioning "racist/racism" like it's Lord Voldemort. This has done a disservice to many white people because they've been conditioned to feel like it's something that does not & should not be discussed.

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

As a 42-year-old, I grew up with domestic right-wing terrorist organizations threatening violence daily, kicking down doors, and killing people periodically throughout my whole political life: it was the police.

This country treats right wing violence like it does missing people who aren’t cute white women

James Baldwin makes it plain. Palestinians should not pay for Europes crimes against its own people and Israel was created to protest western interest.

Despite wars popping off all over on his watch, Trump is still acting like a peacemaker — so here’s where an Indian News anchor said he is blatantly lying about deserving credit for the India-Pakistan ceasefire 👇🏽 “Like a broken record”

9 Palestinians were just killed seeking aid, a number that would make international news if they were not Palestinians

Now THIS is trans allyship! I have never once regretted my fandom of Katie Nolan 💜

ICE is going to parks in Los Angeles and kidnapping nannies who are caring for small children The children are witnessing these kidnappings and being held in custody until their parents are contacted Women and children in parks

While ICE kidnaps families, Israel wipes them out. “A poem by a young Iranian poet Parnia Abbasi who, along with her family, all civilians, was killed today in a brutal and unlawful Israeli attack in the Sattarkhan neighbourhood of Tehran.” www.pamenarpress.com/post/parnia-...

Netanyahu Calls Iran Strikes Necessary To Prevent War He Just Started

Minnesota legislators Senator John Hoffman and Rep. Melissa Hortman, along with their spouses, were shot by someone who was impersonating a police officer. The MAGA rhetoric is out of control, and that’s why things like this happen.

PSA: We will be focusing on the “No Kings” rallies rather than his military charade, and we encourage other outlets to do the same. (‘Many people are saying’ they will have a much bigger turnout)

Holy shit a bunch of ICE prisoners who weren't getting fed broke down a fence and escaped this fucking rips Moreover, ICE must be destroyed www.nj.com/essex/2025/0...

I dunno, frankly insane that we were bullied into silence about a genocide and I don’t think we should be bullied into silence about the same state actors bombing a new population of civilians and starting a major world war

We’ve uncovered fraud, waste, and abuse! ICE has now exceeded its congressionally approved budget. ICE is violating the Antideficiency Act by spending beyond Congressional authorization.

"Millions of Lives at Risk": USAID Cuts Lead to Global Rise in Death, Hunger, Poverty and Disease

Y'all seem the german statement on the isreali attack on Iran? Germans never change, fr. Even when their libs talk about the holocaust, it always feels like a low key brag. Germany was never de-nazified, and it's an actual shame. And the rest of the world has been paying for it till this day!

“What Senator Alex Padilla did today was political theater.” --Kristi Noem, the Head of Costuming, Hair, and Makeup at Political Theater

Israel launched an unprecedented attack on Iran overnight, hitting sites across the country and killing top military leaders and nuclear scientists. Analyst @tparsi.bsky.social says it's "increasingly clear" the Trump administration coordinated with Israel, despite some official denials.

Crockett: I know that there’s been some conversations about what’s going on in LA and they want to say that it’s riots because they didn’t want people to keep talking about the Epstein files

Palmer: Charges should be brought against each one of you AOC: Raising the prospect of charges against witnesses is a form of intimidation is it not? Palmer: I strike those words
