Weird to be commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Am Rev while living under a government that has a) sent armed troops to occupy cities perceived to be too rebellious, b) rendered largely irrelevant the representative branch of government, and c) claimed imperial right to rule other countries.

Today's carry

Every single university in the country should be deleting or locking its accounts now. It’s negligence to be posting photos of students, faculty, or staff on the site.

GOOD NEWS.

The word 'mandatory' has lost it's meaning to me. If there are no repercussions for the highest office in our Country, then why should society bother following rules. He's turning us into a 3rd world country right in front of our eyes.

All of these Dems gotta leave office

in high school i stole this and a Harry Belafonte cassette from my mom because my car only had a tape deck and i didn’t have a CD converter right away, so my bff and i often cruised around our small town blasting What’s New Pussycat at full volume

A level of pathetic that is almost impossible to fully describe

domestic terrorism

Thing is, it is ABNORMAL to have a armed/masked stranger yell @ u & try to force their way into your car/home/job & steal you or your family members, & we are all programmed from an early age to identify that as A DANGEROUS CRIME So more casualties bound to happen; ICE/CBP are BEHAVING CRIMINALLY

Hey, CBP isn't allowed to do any of the stuff it's doing in Minneapolis even within the confines of its extremely ridiculous "100 miles from any border" jurisdiction. It's 300 miles from Canada and 160 miles to Lake Superior. They're breaking the law standing around, let alone beating up protesters.

and this is why we do not only need to be saying ABOLISH ICE, but also BURN THE GOP METAPHORICALLY TO THE GROUND AND SALT THE EARTH. @democrats.org @wisdems.org had better be making plans to impress the heck out of all of us. #WIunion

This is the footage the mainstream media should be running They won't though Fucking cowards

"had any of the ICE agents confronting her merely stopped in their tracks rather than trying to illegally arrest her, she would be alive right now, back at home with her six-year-old child. Very few of us would have heard her name." sethabramson.substack.com/p/a-longtime...

Keep the pressure on, 5:30pm at Lake and Chicago today.

I'm just saying, @kenjennings.bsky.social is allllright. And a big part of that opinion is because many years ago, I got to photograph him for a magazine cover, and my editor was cool enough to let me bring my Grandpa along, and Ken was nice enough to make a photo with him. #Jeopardy #KenJennings

I've been a-blockin' and a-mutin' all afternoon but I want everyone to know that I never block for this reply, though the universe gives me multiple opportunities every day. Many would block, but I have the patience of a saint. Go in peace, little one.

Take a second and think before posting the easy Eeyore reply. You might have something substantive to say instead. Or, even better, you can say nothing at all.

If you are anxious and sad about the state of the world, that's fine, and there are plenty of strategies for dealing with that. But I think you already know that drive-by online dooming isn't a strategy. It's selfish and adolescent. It's a contagion that only spreads the worst of you, not the best.

Right after Renée Good’s disgusting murder, a ICE goon was filmed kicking her memorial candles. Absolutely vile.

Every @democrats.org @wisdems.org should be out here saying the same thing with MORE vitriol and anger.

Like a lot of you, I'm going through a lot of different feelings (on a regular basis) around the ICE shooting yesterday, and my advice continues to be the same every single time: 1) Allow yourself space to feel your feelings, get support, etc. 2) Organize, w/discipline. Links in thread.

Fox News host calls masked Minneapolis protesters "cowardly"; co-host says ICE agents are also masked but "that's for a different reason: they don't want to get doxed."

DHS Warns Any Action By Americans Will Be Treated As Domestic Terrorism https://theonion.com/dhs-warns-any-action-by-americans-will-be-treated-as-domestic-terrorism/

The U.S. military raid in Venezuela killed at least 50 people and captured the country’s president and wife. In Milwaukee, residents quickly took action to check on loved ones in Venezuela, or to protest the raid. www.wuwm.com/milwaukeeans...

“i want back my rocking chairs, / solipsist sunsets, / & coastal jungle sounds...” A poem by Renee Nicole Good, who was murdered by ICE earlier today. lithub.com/renee-nicole...

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

Really worth watching this interview with a bystander who witnessed the ICE shooting in Minneapolis: "I'm pretty right-leaning. But seeing this, this is not how we're supposed to be doing things in America.”

ice agents simply aren't trained well enough to be on the street. they are a genuine danger to citizens

FUCK ICE. @democrats.org @wisdems.org had better start calling LOUDLY for abolishing ICE and QUICK.

in 45-min, in #MILWAUKEE. #WIunion

Do this. It works.

my GAWD, I just cannot hit "SKIP" fast enough on Ai ads on YouTUbe.

Good, direct, unequivocal messaging here. Also: to Trumpists, lying is a patriotic sacrament. Trumpists lie because they believe, as a tenet of Trumpism, that the people they hate deserve to be lied to and that it’s for the best for the few people they don’t hate today.

Read this

You have to take their money. Period.

fwiw this is the correct response from an AG

Please share this vide widely. Flood the internet with it. It disproves statements by DHS and Noem.

This is the video.

Another angle.

Dear media covering Homeland Security's killing of a woman in Minneapolis, Homeland Security has routinely lied about violence against the public. It was caught lying repeatedly in Chicago. A federal judge determined that Homeland Security lied. Share any government statements with that context.

Masked ICE agents, it seems, are now killing American citizens on American streets. Any Democrat who doesn’t support abolishing ICE should be instantly primaried and run out of the party. This is non negotiable. You cannot support the continued existence of this fascist murderous secret police.

seems a fair rule to stick to...

“Tha’s fine, then. I’m pure hell on lawbreakers.” Is there something about motorcycles that just brings out the best in artists? I swear some of the most jaw-dropping, eye-popping, comic book pages tend to involve a hot rod. And in this case, a literal “hot” rod drawn by Flint Henry.

Additional anecdata: My daughter’s housemate caught it in early December. Unvaxxed, hit by a proverbial truck. My daughter - vaxxed - inevitably got it from him, felt a little tired, bit of a cough, generally no big deal. Absolutely get the shot.

Today is the birthday of cartoonist Charles Addams (Jan. 7, 1912-Sept. 29, 1988), the creator of the one-panel comic strip that came to be known as The Addams Family, which first appeared in The New Yorker.

This was really one of the strangest moments I can remember in American culture, there was a 10 day window where this man was considered a saint, like post-9/11 culture but on 4x fast forward
