BREAKING: The U.S. Coast Guard has quietly enacted a policy downgrading swastikas and nooses from hate symbols to “potentially divisive.” The manual is now in effect, despite public outrage and warnings after the draft was revealed last month. (Washington Post)

[email protected] : Were you satisfied with the answers you’ve gotten so far in this classified briefing on Venezuela? AOC: Oh, hell no. It was a joke. This was not a serious intelligence briefing. This was the communication of an opinion.

This is why medical policy should only be created by medical professionals. This statement is bat shit crazy.

Forget ‘Double Tap.’ The First Strike Was a Crime (w/ Rosa Brooks)

Ron & Casey DeSantis stole $36.2 million in Florida taxpayer funds for their pet project.

Amazing!! Women Help Women (womenhelp.org) is manufacturing their own abortion pills in order to make abortion safer, simpler and more accessible across borders. They designed an eco-friendly combi-pack that's easier to mail discreetly and centred around women’s experiences and needs.

Young American men volunteer for military service, knowing they may have to sacrifice their lives for their country. But they didn't volunteer to sacrifice their futures to protect the President or Secretary of Defense from being convicted of crimes. That's not the service for which we thank them.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

As it turns out, the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun *isn’t* a good guy with a gun—it can be a good guy *without* a gun. Just another NRA lie.

Make Congress take action and unmask ICE!

This 20 year old citizen, Mobashir was tackled, brutalized & abducted by #ICE. "I felt like I was getting assaulted. I was getting kidnapped. And that’s exactly what it was,” he said. He poses this question: If this #ICELawlessness is happening on camera, what's happening off camera? Speak out! 🧵

“When this administration calls you a criminal illegal alien, what do you say?” karoline leavitt’s Nephew’s mom: “I’m heartbroken. I’m heartbroken for my son. I don’t even have a parking ticket… it doesn’t make any sense. I’m just as lost as you are.”

open.substack.com/pub/meidasto... "..When the Secretary of Homeland Security can’t stay in a hearing long enough to answer basic questions and when the public trusts the protesters more than the person running the agency, you don’t have a messaging problem. You have a legitimacy crisis.." #BlueCrew

🚨NOLA and suburbs: IG would not let me download this, hence the screenshot. Starving families out and keeping people from going to work out of fear is their plan. 🚨This will come to your neighborhood eventually. Think about how/what you/we can do to help before they arrive.

WTF is “illegal crude”? Illegal according to whom? How is it “illegal?” What, Erik Prince wants it so he declares it ‘illegal”? Why does everyone keep swallowing this BS?

🎯 CIVIL RIGHTS LAWYER @oliverma2026.bsky.social: “The detention centers are run by private prison companies (like @CoreCivic) — they make millions PER PERSON… that’s why they’re looking for anybody brown, so they can keep stealing from taxpayers.” *THIS IS NOT TALKED ABOUT ENOUGH*

The White House continues to make our work harder. They’ve: ✂️ Cut funding for transportation and education 👎 Effectively told families in poverty “you’re on your own” ❌ Presided over the longest government shutdown in history 🚨 Failed to act after Western Maryland was hit by a devastating storm.

It seems to be post your pet Saturday. This is Raspberry. Technically, she’s a dog. 🤣🤣

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Lawless, criminal behavior

Just a reminder that ICE didn't exist until 2002. It's not some longstanding institution that must be maintained. It was created as a knee-jerk reaction to 9/11, and it could be gotten rid of as easily as it was created.

Almost 1.2 million EU citizens have signed onto the My Choice My Choice resolution, which the European Parliament will vote on next week, to help fund abortions in the EU. Croatia alone gathered 65,000 signatures, 780% more than the national threshold set for each country.

The US government is now a mafia organization.

“We are targeting Venezuela because of DRUGS, not OIL, which is why we are blowing up boats without any drugs and stealing a tanker full of oil.”

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

I’m surprised more people aren’t talking about Don Jr receiving a massive loan for his startup from the Pentagon. I guess when there’s so much corruption some things fly under the radar?

"Organizers hoped the event would show congregants it’s OK to be near the ICE facility, to stand alongside protestors and bear witness. For many of the vigil attendees, the service was their first time at the facility during active protesting..." www.oregonlive.com/living/2025/...

So when the #AmericanGestapo says their arrests involve people committing crimes, they are technically correct. But the criminals are in ICE, not Home Depot parking lots or street taco stands.

ICE is going after people who commit fewer crimes than U.S. born citizens. They're robbing people, hurting people, using racial profiling, violating due process, hurting children, and going after American citizens while they do. This is an illegal criminal enterprise from head to toe.

“I’d have no problem releasing the video” “I didn’t say that, you said that. Fake news.” 5 days apart 😬 (From @therecount.com )

"She said she repeatedly told the agents she’s a U.S. citizen. “I just kept repeating it — I’m a U.S.-born citizen. I was born and raised here. This is my home. My baby’s waiting for me...” She screamed “Leave me alone...” www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

ICE use of Border Control agents is disgusting. Most of these agents are criminals with a badge, running free rein on innocent people. Just like the prison guards ICE has hired. They are thugs and losers.

We trust science! It’s the con of this administration and its maga followers that are falling for this.

Note: "Deportation Judges," not immigration judges. No need to apply if you don't get the agenda.

"As masked agents dragged the woman from her car, wrestled her to the ground and forced handcuffs on her, she yelled, 'I’m a US citizen. Please help me! This is unfair. Why are you doing this to me?' She was wearing scrubs and appeared to be on her way to work." www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

"The group rallied amid frigid conditions at the Target store on East Lake Street, alleging it allowed agents to stage raids in the parking lot. 'You cannot celebrate our communities on your commercials while letting ICE stalk them in your parking lot'...” www.startribune.com/twin-cities-...

UPDATE: Another Chicago-area church has put up an immigration-themed Nativity scene. A church member at Urban Village Church sent this one along, where Mary, Joseph and Jesus are gone and replaced with a sign that reads: “Due to ICE activity in our community, the Holy Family is in hiding.”

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.” What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.” Funny how that works.

If the Sep. 2 boat really had "narco-terrorists" on board, questioning the survivors would have been a way to learn about how the organization worked, where more drugs were stashed, etc. But this isn't a counter-terrorism campaign. It's a shooting gallery with helpless targets.

Know your rights. Protect your neighbors. New York is — and always will be — a city for all immigrants.
