I still love Big Audio Dynamite, although “No. 10, Upping St.” is still my favorite album of theirs. youtu.be/Dh4b4c-RzE8?...

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention. The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.

This day and every day, let us raise up leaders in love with justice and humanity. #MLKday #quote

Just to be clear: the President is single-handedly dragging America to economic crisis and war with our closest allies. And why? To conquer an overseas territory that we have no claim to, have never had a claim to, and already have military bases on. Oh, and because he didn’t get a prize.

😬

Vance lied that Haitian immigrants ate dogs and cats in Ohio. This smear caused a rash of bomb threats. Vance then said it was OK to lie: "If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that’s what I’m going to do." 6/11 🧵

Of course. Businesses exist to profit so if their costs go up so will prices.

BRENNAN: “Will your agents comply with the federal order not to use chemicals?” @Sec_Noem: “It’s ridiculous. We don’t use chemicals.” BRENNAN: *shows her video of them gassing a 6 month old* NOEM: *admits they use chemicals*🤔

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today.

Settings -> accessibility -> display -> reduce transparency Doesn’t fix things entirely, but it’s better

Still trying to understand why Apple keeps doing bizarre iphone updates that are like “Wouldn’t be cool if your icons were even more translucent and pulsed as if they were underwater jellyfish?” Is there a high-up programmer there who loves jellyfish? Has someone investigated? 🪼

“This is an administration that continually touts ‘women need to have more children’, they can’t feed the children they already have” @ameshiacross.bsky.social slams the Trump administration's solution to affordability that Americans can easily spend just $3 dollars on a full meal.

Trump talks about the election as though there were only one, and it belongs to him. There are thousands and they belong to the states.

Somebody could formulate this thought better than me, but notice how the right uses the idea of maternal protection to dismantle public health infrastructure, but disparages the women protecting their kids from ICE gangs.

#UCP and a public inquiry to health care dollars. We need it all like yesterday

I took infant CPR training yesterday where we pictured a lot of horrible situations but none of them were this bad

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents. Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center. Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.

This is what is so worrying. There seems no limit to their abuse of power.

DOJ argues against a judge imposing any remedy for the govt violating the rights of student protesters. Judge Young scoffs he found two cabinet members — Noem and Rubio — acted in concert to violate their 1A rights. "No remedy! ... You’re telling me there’s no remedy?!"

Palantir sells AI tools that help law enforcement agencies like ICE analyze massive amounts of personal data. It's a big reason why it is quickly becoming the most dangerous corporation in America. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_VwyhErd88

The administration needs to be asked directly how many J6ers, and anyone convicted of seditious conspiracy, are now ICE agents with a badge and a gun.

A Senator lying, hard to believe. Lol

Good news.

Its very telling here is that his "do your own research" examples are consumer goods, like cars or baby carriages. The MAHA movement is a consumption movement, one that prefers yelp reviews rather than science evaluating their products.

A federal court dismissed the Trump Justice Department’s lawsuit seeking access to California’s full voter registration database Thursday, warning that the government’s bid for the voter records “threatens the right to vote which is the cornerstone of American democracy.

Interesting. In response to Raskin asking DOJ whether any J6ers are being recruited by ICE, Tricia McLaughlin accuses Raskin of painting law enforcement as villains. Does she agree that J6ers are villains?

Minnesota will remain an island of decency, of justice, of community, and of peace.

Thank you, @jeremyfaust.bsky.social, for this public service; we have all wanted to see the protocol of this deeply unethical trial being funded by RFK Jr in Guinea-Bissau, I’m grateful you obtained it and have published it insidemedicine.substack.com/p/scoop-the-...

It is hard to explain institutional collapse to voters; videos where state actors are clearly acting in abusive ways explain themselves.

That's horrible.

I keep going back to this brilliant book by @anneapplebaum.bsky.social. It is probably the best analysis to explain what's going on with Venezuela (and soon probably) Iran: the interest is in the oil and personal profiteering across autocrats, as simple as that.

State investigators have been on the scene in North Minneapolis. I know you’re angry. I’m angry. What Donald Trump wants is violence in the streets. But Minnesota will remain an island of decency, of justice, of community, and of peace. Don’t give him what he wants.

Our current system allows this. I see two options; eliminate the ability to buy influence or eliminate the ability to have such massive resources.

X ‘acting to comply with UK law’ after outcry over sexualised images New polling suggests 58% of Britons think X should be banned in the UK if the social network fails to crack down on nonconsensual images www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

GREENLAND Trump claims that just because Denmark "had a boat land there 500 years ago, doesn't mean they own the land". The USA did not even exist as a country at the time Someone should remind Trump how Europeans got to America in the first place. Does this mean the US is now up for grabs.

I'm amazed so many don't see the parallels between the current U.S. administration and every other authoritarian cult.

POTUS47 continues to insist on unhinged path of attacking a NATO country

Exactly.

The same MAGA/MAHA zealots who blame gun violence on mental health will stay silent while their mental health system is decimated.
