We ALREADY have ICE concentration camps. We are ALREADY so far gone. Fuck the people who support this evil.

🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific. They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him. Stop the lies.

Every day of the last 40years of GOP getting elected for anything…

Today marks 15 years since Gabby Giffords was shot at a constituent meeting, in an attack that killed 6 and wounded 13. I am proud to cosponsor a bipartisan, bicameral resolution to honor the victims and their families today, and recommit to ending gun and political violence.

Immigrants are welcome here! Stand up against ICE Terror! Prosecute ICE. ICE murdered Renee Nicole Good!

Blindboyboatclub (!) was speaking in an interview recently of the difficulty of confronting fascism when it comes dressed as comedy. The USA is being disassembled by trolls escaped from the message boards.

Thanks to @eyesonice-bmore.bsky.social @freestatecoalition.bsky.social @pslweb.bsky.social Bmore & more who organized speakers/march in 24 hrs to stand up for our neighbors & us all in Bmore, Glen Burnie, DC, Minneapolis, Chicago, Portland, LA, Memphis, NOLA & everywhere @charmcityclfa.bsky.social

The violence, lies, propaganda, assaults on constitutional norms, and attacks on American citizens and states in just the last week are horrifying. It isn’t normal. It’s not okay. It’s not something we should accept. America is an idea. A great one. We need to fight to keep it.

Just a reminder that ALL members of the military and the Secret Service PLEDGE LOYALTY TO THE CONSTITUTION, not a person, to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic". How many take that oath seriously? Maybe they should.

Not like it’s critical infrastructure or

So. We've learned a little more about the shooting, namely that witnesses report that the two ICEholes that got out of the truck gave the driver conflicting orders; one to leave and one to get out of her vehicle. First, here is DHS Use of Force policy in full. 🧵 www.dhs.gov/sites/defaul...

A president cannot defend a nation if he is not held accountable to its laws.

The American government has gone completely rogue and should be considered armed and dangerous to the entire American population. This is NOT normal, not acceptable, and most importantly, it's NOT LAWFUL. TEST ME, TRY, SEE IF IM STEERING YOU WRONG.

This is what Dem leaders need to understand. The murder yesterday and the shootings today in Portland are the result of POLICY. This is exactly what they intend. If you collaborate with the GOP in any way, blood is on your hands too.

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

Anne Salmond: A Trumpian accent There should be red flags for New Zealand in this Government’s Trump-like tendencies to favour entitled elites over ordinary citizens #nzpol newsroom.co.nz/2025/11/08/a...

Please support Michael de Adder, who does great work:

On the same day the PM caves in to the Israel lobby. another cultural body caves in to the Israel lobby. The royal commission may be of use if it investigates how a foreign power and its local agents are deliberately conflating antisemitism with criticism of Israel, to suppress dissent. #auspol

White House website gives distorted version of Capitol Riot. "...[it includes] brazenly false claims about the Capitol Police ‘escalating’ tensions with rioters by firing ‘tear gas, flash bangs, and rubber munitions into crowds of peaceful protesters.’" www.commondreams.org/news/trump-j...

My anger at having to stand outside my kid’s school for two hours to ensure none of their classmates, parents, or teachers get kidnapped by my own government is only slightly tempered by the amazing outpouring of support from other parents and especially neighbors who stand against this bullshit.

I invite all Americans to join Minnesota in a day of unity tomorrow.

A review of Mary Fissel's book "Abortion—A History", by the Socialist Worker. They recommend the book but criticize her position that patriarchy is the cause of women’s oppression, claiming that it's "class society" that's had the biggest impact on women’s reproductive rights.

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

When you read this, think: “People who are good with hundreds of thousands of kids dead, amputees, no-extended-family-not-just-orphans” We are all fighting for Jewish & Muslim safety, equality, rights over here on the centre/left. #auspol

The government is saying that violence rules. That snatching foreign leaders and territories, and shooting US citizens in their cars at point blank range, is justified. That resistance is not only futile, it is dangerous. They can say these things. But they cannot force us to believe them.

#CAFCA keeps track of Foreign Ownership of #NZ - how bad is it? Is it a good idea? Frankly, it’s bad, & about to get a whole lot worse as Luxon tries to entice tax-avoiding #Billionaires to buy us out. We are becoming 2nd class citizens , or worse, in our own country #nzpol #inequality #votes

CAFCA have been keeping records of Foreign ownership of Aotearoa NZ - here are some graphs:

We had her. Her name is Tory Whanau. And they did everything they could to tear her down.

Hey NZ Labour. Takes notes. This is how you do it. If you won't revoke or reverse every single monstrous policy that the coalition has put in place, if you don't reinstate policies that benefitted the country - you are next to worthless. Do it. #nzpol

People talking about lessons Hipkins could take from Mamdani, as if Hipkins would ever pay attention to a brown leftist

also part of Mamdani's appeal is his charisma which is just not an attribute Hipkins has

This is EXACTLY my fear regarding NZ Labour, this mindset

Well Hipkins said when Wellington went Green for the first time ever that people just wanted a change. Yeah mate a change to what? What message did we try to send you?

This fucker was a human rights lawyer apparently…. #nzpol I don’t fucking trust centrists, which is why I’m so depressed Labour is keeping Hipkins.

so Hipkins could completely scoop Luxon AND set the frame for the discourse by making even a quite muted announcement on Venezuela. why are Labour so FUCKING BAD at comms OR being in the right side of history?

it's so frustrating. we're seeing the same thing in NZ, the right wing government is giving SO many opportunities for really easy political messaging to the leftwing opposition and they're just... not... doing it.

so funny to me all the people STILL trying to claim that Trump et al is “un american” when the rest of the world can easily identify the current regime as the distillation of, the peak, of US ideology.
