Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

The U.S. military spends about $7.5 billion total on paychecks for service members every two weeks. The supposed $130 million the Trump admin claims was anonymously donated for military pay would cover about two percent of that.

Watch this. Open your eyes to this brutality. ICE beats up, drags & abducts this disabled visually impaired man. Now share this. Everyone must see the brutality of this administration & ask themselves what they are doing to push back. You have power. Even sharing this video exerts that power.

They don’t GAF about the Constitution, and they’ll do whatever it takes to keep Trump breathing long enough to seize a third term. So when you start thinking your vote doesn’t matter, remember this: they know it does. That’s why they’re trying to take it from you. This isn’t going to end well.

Priorities.

No words.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

"normies do not care about this thing and so it is no use raising a stink" is imho just an excuse for not doing politics, which is the job of making normies care about something

A 12-year-old girl who doctors said was on the brink of death was greeted by dozens of cheering residents as a white limousine led by a police motorcade carried her through Minneapolis. https://cnn.it/49jwpfb

The White House website has updated it's Major Events Timeline to include some extremely political content attacking Democrats. Every structure, symbol, and system has to be debased to serve the MAGA-agenda. www.whitehouse.gov/about-the-wh...

Godfrey doing his Trump impression with Dr. Dre in the studio 🤣💀

Brought to you by the same voters who started losing faith in the government when government forces attacked the Branch Davidian complex in Waco in 1993 ....sigh

there’s something distasteful in the way people describe the poor as having only their economic plight guide their values. it feels almost condescending, as though they can’t walk and chew gum and think that disrespecting an historic office is bad.

"Congress approved funding for the renovations in 2008—before Obama took office—'after a Bush administration report revealed some systems in the White House were periodically failing.'"

Here's the full radio address from Reagan in 1987. He talks a little about how he needs to impose tariffs on semiconductors from Japan but it's clear he's singling them out as something that should be rarely used. The Reagan Foundation suggesting they might sue over the ad is hilarious.

We cut cancer research so ICE could purchase rocket launchers.

So YouTubers and right-wing influencers who were paid hundreds of thousands of dollars monthly by a company funded by Russia and indicted by the DOJ are now covering the Pentagon?

Nothing to worry about, just dead bodies washing ashore in a region where the US is carrying out extrajudicial killings of boats at sea

“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡

will there be any followup to this fascinating story by the president of the united states that a friend of his sent him a check for $130 million dollars and the president is going to give the money to the military because i for one am fascinated about the details tbh

Personally I think a really good reason for you to stop going to Thanksgiving with any MAGA relatives you may have is because you really cannot trust them not to sexually abuse your children

Joe Flacco has a new perspective with age 😂

> @dkthomp.bsky.social

this didn’t happen and if it did it is also impeachable

now that they’ve normalized Nazis, the right wing billionaire set is hell-bent on normalizing the sexual abuse and trafficking of underage girls

Trump raises the price of the ballroom to $350 million (It changed from $200 million, then $300 million, now $350 million within the course of a few days)

We must prosecute him for using public office for enriching himself with well over a billion dollars. It is the most staggering corruption the US has ever seen.

BREAKING: Jack Smith is insisting upon a public hearing if Congress wants to talk to him Good. Why does the GOP want backroom secret questioning? What are Republicans afraid of? Let the American people see & hear for themselves!

What... ...and I say this with all sincerity... ...the fuck

Included is this screenshot of CBP commander Greg Bovino allegedly “throwing tear gas into a crowd without justification.”

The "pro-weed" gun case is a trap for lefties. Yes, it's hypocritcal to take away guns from people who use weed, but not people who abuse alcohol. But the way to deal with that is to DECRIMINALIZE WEED, not expand gun rights. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/soci...

MARGE: “Trump’s $40 BILLION bailout for Argentina is one of the grossest things I’ve ever seen. I don’t know how that’s America first.”

SNAP benefits expire in one week.

The reason I “can’t let Biden go” is that by all usual measures he had a very successful presidency, and his popularity was more akin to a completely failed presidency, and that tells us something about how voters get their ideas about the world.

This point really upsets some folks, but it is true. Folks wonder why there's so much DLC, microtransactions and stuff and the answer is that at a $70 price point, inflation adjusted, games cost 75% of what they did in 2000 when it was typically $50. Inflation is like that.

The day after the Chinatown raid, New York AG Tish James launches an online portal for the public to submit photos and videos of ICE activity. "We are committed to reviewing these reports and assessing any violations of law," she writes. Portal ag.ny.gov/federal-acti...

listen we all know how to solve this make 👏 Platner 👏 do 👏 an 👏 interview 👏 with 👏 Chotiner 👏

Protesters have blocked the westbound side of Canal. They are chanting "ICE out of New York now!" and "Liberation, not deportation!"

A new poll shows Americans blame Trump and Republicans over Democrats for the shutdown 53%-37%. (Independents blame Trump by a nearly 3-to-1 margin, 58%-21%.). People aren’t dumb.

This is gone now. The East Wing lobby two years ago.

Looks like we are about to see a significant increase in snatch-and-grab operations around the Bay Area 408-290-1144 is the hotline for the Palo Alto/Mountain View area www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

He lost the 2020 election. He knew it. He lied about it. And now he’s demanding your money because knowingly lying didn’t make him President.

*screams*

@jackohman.bsky.social always nails it.

to me the term “Nazi tattoo” still evokes a number inked on some older folks' forearms by the nazi genocidaires whom a lot of Americans gave their lives to defeat— not ready to get used to the term now routinely referring to Americans who brand themselves with Nazi fetishes & then seek public office

This is how a dictatorship works
