John Oliver really was not kidding about the overwhelming rebellious power of just saying “Fuck you, make me.”

When the prison guards went on strike, many inmates said they were doing so to preserve their ability to do things like this.

Just as the pro life crew intended

A Chinese immigrant named Chaofeng Ge died in ICE custody. He was found hanging with his hands and feet tied behind him in the “hog tie” position. Deaths within these camps continue to rise, with more people dying in the last nine months than in the entire previous four years. Abolish ICE

For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

Poisoned soil, contaminated water, rubble, unburied human remains: a new report details the war’s horrific consequences.

A headline for the history books

ICE is pepper spraying CPD (Chicago police)

The US is now four months away from losing its measles elimination status. 1544 confirmed cases reported by the CDC.

Jesus Christ, how are you so unbelievably bad at this? A deeply unpopular president is recklessly destroying our government, wrecking our democracy, covering up pedophilia and now threatening to use military force against our own citizens but you're tsk-tsking about protecting healthcare?

Feds just arrested a reporter at the ICE facility outside Chicago

ICE agents grabbed a 5-year-old girl outside of her home and held her, screaming, to coerce her father, who has been in the US for 22 years, to be detained. This is cruel, disgusting, and must end. Trump is tearing families apart. www.nbcboston.com/news/local/i...

800 detainees are missing after being held in Alligator Alcatraz in July, showing no record of their location in ICE’s database. Other detainees have been mistakenly deported or sent to detention centers thousands of miles away. The cruelty is the point.

You also need to say this shit when people get fired for mentioning their personal gender or get roughed up for looking at ICE the wrong way. Come the fuck on. If you believe this, believe it for everyone.

what a fucking way to find out magic is real

When I see people online, even in jest, suggest that people living in Republican-controlled states should be abandoned because of their politicians, I feel a deep heartache. New York CREATED Donald Trump and none of y’all are ever talk about it the way you disparage Alabama or Mississippi.

Big Tech CEOs took turns lavishing praise on Trump at a White House dinner this week. Fascism backed by Big Money is one of the most dangerous of all political alliances. It happened in 1930s Germany, and it’s happening again today. https://youtu.be/0LEnI9THvLA?feature=shared

I want to give those of you who have not been exposed to this new strain of Covid a warning. It is very insidious. I have had it now for almost 3 weeks it does not want to go away. I thought I was getting better, but now having a problem breathing. Please be careful especially the immunocompromised.

Yep, all the "Who needs feminism? Who needs anti-racism?" talk from a few years ago is a prime example. Everyone was so quick to insist that it wasn't the bad old days, when objectively the problems were ongoing but things had improved enough that people forgot how easy it is to lose everything

Their memorials are history. Ours are political. Because as always, there are two sexualities - straight, and political. Two genders - male, and political. Two religions - Christian, and political. Two races - white, and political.

Laura Loomer, who the president has consulted for decisions on who to fire, is arguing with a chatbot

hey all, our friend Rami ( @rk-ps2025.bsky.social ) has had an urgent medical need come up and needs help ASAP. if you can pitch in, he could really use it. i am putting in $10 to get the ball rolling, can i get matches? gofund.me/edd687b8

I had a thread on Twitter where I talked about how people who grew up post Lawrence, fundamentally do not understand how dangerous it was to be gay, the things you had to do to stay safe.

the decades-long project to make sure nothing like Watergate can ever hurt a Republican president again is one of the most successful political projects ever enacted, to our everlasting detriment

Someone told Mohammed yesterday to just “go to the aid place” which is basically like asking him to die

i posted this more than a year ago because it was obvious by then that israel was trying to starve gaza, & i knew there would come a time in the future when a bunch of people who know better would pretend to suddenly find out about it

"It's ok, honey. The Sears Tower experiencing a blackout won't hurt you!" The Sears Tower experiencing a blackout:

The Amistad Research Center, one of the largest repositories of Black history, cut half its staff after the Trump administration ended four federal grants

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends. But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month. See you soon, NYC.

adoptees are having entire pages of their adoption records redacted, making it impossible to finalize citizenship or prove their immigration status or that of their adoptive parents

New: DHS tells police to brace for the anti-ICE movement to grow much bigger in threat bulletins last month that lists ordinary behavior, like riding a skateboard or livestreaming, as threatening to law enforcement. By me w/ records by @propertyofthepeople.org:

it's increasingly clear that most electeds actively hate most Americans and it's wild we don't talk about that basic fact all the time

It is currently 94 degrees (outside) at America's latest concentration camp. It's bound to be even hotter in the metal cages under the plastic tenting. But at least the Home Depot vinyl flooring is festive.

But tell us again how the peace deal proves the Trump admin cares about Black lives?

$45 billion for ethnic cleansing

Watching both sides of the aisle race to condemn a guy who basically campaigned on “everything is too expensive and maybe it shouldn’t be” is extraordinarily informative.

Here’s the list of Republicans who voted to close rural hospitals:

Today in my feed I’ve seen conservatives argue that poor people must be kept poor to incentivize them to contribute to society, and that rich people must be given more money to achieve the same goal. Funny, that.

The Supreme Court has neutered the ability of every other federal court to stop Trump's lawless decrees.
