Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

America is designed to oppress Black people. It has oppressing Black people in its design. That's why listening to Black people, & standing with Black people against our oppression, frees everybody. But if you buy into America's mechanisms of oppressing us & participate in them you don't get that.

SCOUTUS taking us back to Jim Crow at light speed and people still think Trump is the problem

The amount of misinformation we’re getting about an incident that just occurred in front of 1,500 news reporters is truly the metaphor of our generation.

@npr stop asking John Bolton what he thinks challenge

kash patel and pete hegseth are DUI hires.

My ancestors practiced matriarchy. We were governed by women. And women will govern again.

Trump hasn't betrayed America, this is what America wanted & he came out of everything America is. And he'll go nowhere until America confronts what it is itself that made him.

When we said that the police were defunding everything else in every municipality and needed to be defunded, most of the country lost its mind, lololololol.

trump and his secretary of state are at a UFC fight while negotiations with Iranians, led by the VP and real estate developers, fall apart.

Band from the bathroom: Intestinal maneuvers in the dark

you do not have to hand it to tucker carlson or marjorie taylor greene or alex jones or megyn kelly. they're all rats who see trump as a sinking ship and they're getting ready to jump in preparation for their next act. you do not have to fall for it.

We’re on strike today! Support our fight for a fair contract by NOT visiting the @propublica.org website or engaging with ProPublica stories today. Tell ProPublica’s management you won’t cross the picket line: actionnetwork.org/petitions/te...

BTW the people who spent the last few years advocating for Palestine were clearly 100% right that normalizing war crimes and genocide there would just increase the likelihood of inhumane actions elsewhere. Just saying.

In 1953 Iran had a functioning democracy. A free press. Seven political parties. Women in universities. Women granted voting rights in municipal councils in 1952. A secular prime minister named Mosaddegh who believed Iran's oil belonged to Iran. The US and Britain decided he had to go.

The only way to end the sexual abuse of children who are detained and incarcerated is to stop detaining and incarcerating children. There are no "reforms" that end sexual abuse inside.

Nothing says winning like evacuating all your bases and the largest aircraft carrier in the world running away

It’s wild that the Trump administration appears to be trying to set a precedent to question the citizenship of descendants of the enslaved. We are literally the descendants of multiple presidents of the United States man.

the best thing that we can do in this AI-slop-filled, influencer culture, fascist era is keep it real. make art. be authentic. lead with joy. tell the truth. we win.

The US was a racial dictatorship until 1965 and a not small measure of US politics since then has been an attempt, or resistance against the attempt, to return us to being one

Yes we should definitely have no kings but that sort of implies what we had before was working. It's not enough to go back. How about no oligarchs? No rent seekers? No labor thieves?

Vote for me. I will completely fuck air travel, start a war and bring back the measles

She wasn't hired for ratings. She was hired as part of an ongoing fascist ideological project. So she is succeeding.

Lawd people bout to get killed trying to get on a plane with ICE in airports. And there will be no apologies for it.

Fuck both parties. www.latimes.com/world-nation...

A lot of us in USA would be well served to recall that when we look back on that era we don't call it Germany With Some Nazis we call it Nazi Germany. We don't distinguish between people who silently disapproved or didn't like it but accepted it. We lump them in with the Nazis. And that is correct.

The only things protected by the US government now are billionaires, Israel, and the Epstein files.

Fascism and liberalism are two forms of capitalism That's why Dems hate the left and tacitly collude with trump

for the youths who werent around for the iraq installment - dont believe anything the govt says about progress - no the democrats dont have to say getting rid of the baddie was good and therefore they have to support the war - the war needs to be ended - the media is not your ally and they love war

I'm gonna go with Iranian schoolgirls not being my enemy or people who pose any particular threat to me who got killed for no reason.

"The Islamists oppose women getting an education," I mutter, as I aim my missile at the girls school

People really struggling with the idea that the Iranian government sucks but we shouldn't be bombing them can both be true, eh?

To the contrary, it's quite normal for US presidents to launch wars without regard for congressional support or international law

The idea of bombing children as a form of “self-defense” is nonsensical and grotesque, but nonetheless it’s the argument the U.S. and Israel have been relying on for years and years. It shouldn’t be hard to take a stance against slaughtering children

I can’t believe you lefty Luddites hate tech so much that you embrace mRNA vaccines, heat pumps, electric bikes, hybrid work, renewable power (and awesome advancements in storage), space telescopes, and hot/cold running water but reject the planet destroying plagiarism enrich the worst people bots!

of course they knew. IT WAS THEIR POLICY.

48% of Americans across the spectrum want to abolish ICE. It is not only a morally correct position — it is a winning one. You are fighting to create a gentler Gestapo while the Baileys get tear-gassed at a protest. You are failing this nation.

Chuck Schumer declares he will "reform ICE to stop the killings of Americans because no other police department in America is allowed to do that." US police annually kill 1500 to 2000 people, every single year. Either Schumer is that incompetent or maliciously lying. Please Replace Him ASAP.

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

'measles outbreak at the child prison' seems entirely avoidable, it's really the kind of thing that only happens if you do several unthinkably evil things on purpose all at once

We can’t body cam our way out of this. We have to change everything.

i have just gotten off a productive call with sauron where i laid out our requests - nazgul bodycams - morgul knife must remain sheathed unless suspect is determined to be carrying the one ring - shelob will be the new point of contact

"Return CBP to the border" Now that you have seen what CBP does, why is it okay to have them on the US-Mexico or US-Canada border? Some people say they want "a controlled border" but at what cost to life?

ICE is law enforcement Border Patrol is law enforcement The cops are not coming to the rescue The cops are the problem

This is why we had Jim Crow instead of truth and reconciliation after slavery ended. People are so quick to absolve anyone who pays lip service to changing their mind about human rights violations instead of letting them live with the social consequences of their words

just gonna throw out a quick reminder that in America police kill a yearly average of 3 civilians per day, routinely in situations very similar to these ICE killings, and decades of explicit support for police impunity by US politicians is why ICE feels theyre able to get away with this right now

“Outside agitators” is older than Putin; I am begging white people to crack open a history book about Black Americans for once

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
