Remember how lefties used to say "abolish ICE" back in the 2010s, and got roundly scolded by the centrists for it ever since, and now events have shown beyond a shadow of a doubt that they were 1000% on the correct side of history, but somehow they're still being scolded? Fun.

Wounded Knee is a dark stain upon our nation’s history. We must remember it for what it truly was, not for what white nationalists would have it be.

BOLDUAN: When I was asking you about Comey, you've twice now brought up the Epstein files and Tom Homan. Why? RASKIN: Because the DOJ is in full coverup mode

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

So that’s how Musk knows Trump is in the files.

Rest in Power

Talk Of Fascism Dangerous, Warns Ministry Of Compliance

If we ever win again and the new government is progressive it would be cool to have some sort of new deal situation where they hire tons of people to undo all the damage that’s been done, like fixing the govt websites and stuff. Huge public works stuff

“Calling the government’s authoritarian attacks on free speech ‘authoritarian’ isn’t allowed,” explained the authoritarian government official. “In the name of free speech, the government will employ state power to silence its critics,” he continued. “So watch what you say.”

I'm a reporter not a political strategist, but one answer to the question of "What can the opposition do?" is "Use the extraordinary investigative powers members of Congress have even when in the minority to get new information courts and journalists can't get."

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

The AUDACITY of someone to say “1978” and then say “almost 50 years ago.”

So much of what I read from the center left amounts to "what if the powerful did nice things for us without us having to make them" and folks, that's simply not how it works

And not a single tear was shed.

If you think that adults taking Tylenol hurt kids, just wait until you read what the adults in the Epstein Files were doing to them.

It sucks the way the humanities are being eroded & labeled unimportant. For every rant against a “new identity,” there is an ancient poem or painting or song or or or that tells us there is nothing new under the sun

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

i challenge you to find cooler news today than “despite all odds against American scientific research rn, a CO researcher developed a temperature-stable, single dose rabies vaccine that works bc of particles coated in CANDY & SAPPHIRE, & it could help reduce rabies deaths in places w/o electricity”

whoa. Every single one of the Sinclair advert buyers on this list is automotive or automotive related (insurance). That is one aspect of the power in our society held by car companies that I haven't seen studied enough.

Cockroach has words

NJ PBS shutting down next summer. “15yrs ago Gov. Christie ended 4 decades of state funding for public TV, forcing them to find a new funder. The state cut $750k in funding this yr, but that was hardly the fatal blow; that came from the end of federal funds.” newjerseyglobe.com/media/new-je...

What I’ll never understand: how anyone reads or hears his constant whining & perceives strength.

Do any of the professors or journalists or teachers also get their jobs back or nah

So I guess the next step is convincing liberals that the military industrial complex is trying to take Jimmy Kimmel away from them

Nothing new. When I was traveling in the UK in the 80’s I was asked almost daily how we could have elected someone as obviously stupid as Reagan, and wasn’t I embarrassed for my country. I’m sure people asked the same about Dubya. Yes. Yes, I am. For about 1/2 of my adult life.

The circle-jerk explained

Let's be clear: no one should be taking medical advice from the man who told Americans to inject bleach. To moms worried about the Tylenol they took while pregnant: you deserve better than being RFK Jr's scapegoat. And to the autism community: you are loved exactly as you are.

Today we have a guest post with a cracking analogy 🥚🎂 on why the Federal Statistical System and public federal data matter so much! Thanks to @clairemkbowen.bsky.social and Aaron R. Williams for writing such a fun piece.

Bothers me when people discuss Left movements in the U.S. w/out underscoring the GENERATIONS of repression, surveillance, violence directed at movements. The "Left" is so disorganized is used as a joke but I hardly ever see those same people saying 'THE LEFT WAS TARGETED & DISORGANIZED by the STATE'

This ought to be engraved somewhere.

Kamala Harris on MSNBC now saying she “always believed titans of industry” would be guardrails for democracy but now—shocker—she reports that turns out they’re not. Only, she still’s waiting! “At some point they’ve got to stand up.” This kind of willful naïveté & denial doesn’t need airtime.

The Spanish PM said this at Columbia University yesterday: “Defending your country is one thing. But killing 60,000 civilians, bombing hospitals, and starving children to death is something else entirely.” “We are witnessing one of the darkest tragedies of the 21st century unfold before our eyes.”

Grifts all the way down

imo a fair conclusion to draw about dem leadership's obstinance in the face of revolt from their voters is that they'd rather win an intra-party fight with their left wing & their own voters than maximize potential electoral gains in the midterms

MSNBC has zero moral authority to talk about cowardice of Disney, ABC, or Republicans for bending the knee to MAGA when they did exact thing in their termination of me and others. They are doing the exact thing they complain about others doing.

A woman protesting outside the ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois, was brutally assaulted by goons who used mace and sting balls on her.

This is the guy in the shadows & the reason Trump is getting anything done.

It's important to remember when GOP Reps and Sens are yelling about the 'violent left' that they routinely tell reporters and colleagues how theyre afraid to do this or that because their own supporters routinely threaten violence agains them.

Something I don't think a lot of people realize is that the Democrats really have no idea what is going on. They are not tracking the right very well, they do not understand how the fascists organize themselves, it's just a black hole of no knowledge.

Brilliant

Fire all the pundits.

People want politicians to not suck shit. So stop sucking shit.

Plenty of revolutions, and that is basically what we are talking about here, do not come from the top down. Also this is truly uncharted territory which means what brings us on a better path is also probably going to be very unique and not knowable in advance.

Um, no. Not only is he misrepresenting what Gore said, but the people who measure sea ice extent in the Arctic say this is among the top ten lowest summer extents measured in 45 years.

AOC: We should be clear about who Charlie Kirk was. A man who believed that the civil rights act that granted black Americans the right to vote was a mistake… His rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uneducated, and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans.

Who tf is Ben Smith & why is his fortunate-son piehole opening in public places?

“This isn’t the America I know” Black People:

would sure love to see the urgent tone of my dozens of daily ActBlue fundraising texts and emails reflected in the actual behavior of party leadership seems like you guys aren’t on the same page about whether the house is on fire and you need all my money, or you can just frown disapprovingly

The key problem with what Ezra Klein says here is that he fails – or is unwilling – to grapple with the fundamental reality of the political conflict: The movement that dominates today’s Right fully rejects the very idea of “living here with each other” as equals. That’s their defining position.
