This is so shortsighted. Groups like this think that if they defeat Mamdani, they can defeat anti-Zionism. But anti-Israel politics are so dominant among American youth that without Mamdani, anti-Israel politics could be claimed by someone actually antisemitic. www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent...

Zohran Mamdani: "I wouldn't use the slogan 'Globalize the Intifada' myself, but I understand the nuances given the largely peaceful First Intifada." NYT: "Mamdani has problems with antisemitism." CPAC attendee: "I'm J-pilled, hint, hint." NYT: "This young person is critical of Israel."

There are almost daily pogroms against Palestinians in the West Bank now, and I am glad more people are starting to notice and speak out. www.timesofisrael.com/over-1000-di...

Unions and community orgs are calling for a Minnesota-wide shutdown in 10 days to protest the ferocious assault by federal immigration agents. They're saying on Jan 23, no work, no school, no shopping. SEIU Local 26, UNITE HERE Local 17, & others are supporting, w/ more to join. By me, Amie Stager

Being at all involved in proposing genital inspections (of children) should get you on a list

Today there was an attempted ICE raid in Bensonhurst & community members showed up. Even though NYPD collaborated with ICE by trying to disburse the crowd; community members stood their ground & ICE left without kidnapping a single person per the rapid response groups I'm on. We protect us!

don't have a lot left to say about the Nazi tat discourse other than the general observation that when some say they oppose "moralism" they mean they oppose self-indulgent or otherwise unprincipled appeals to faux-morality and when others say they oppose "moralism" they mean they oppose morals

CoreCivic and other private prison CEOs boasted on investor calls about surging profits from ICE arrests, with CEO Damon Hininger touting that their business model now “perfectly aligns” with government detention priorities under Trump.

Breaking: The Department of Justice announced it will "monitor polling sites in six jurisdictions [in New Jersey and California] ahead of the upcoming November 4, 2025, general election to ensure transparency, ballot security, and compliance with federal law." www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justi...

A left wing politics that is oriented around your rights and identity as an individual consumer instead of your responsibilities as a member of a social or political community is basically a left aesthetic pasted onto an internalized neoliberal ontology.

I obtained video of two FBI agents visiting an anti-ICE protester not charged with any crime. While the media continue to mock Trump's war on "Antifa" as legally impossible, the FBI is quietly implementing it with investigations like these: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/video-fbi-...

This is Heinrich Himmler, the head of the SS and architect of the Holocaust. That symbol on his cap is the totenkopf. This isn't just a nazi symbol, it was the symbol of SS guards who mass murdered millions. Just to be clear, no one who gets this as a tattoo should ever be elected.

Can the Manhattan Project avoid building the nuclear bomb?

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

NSPM-7 is already resulting in fed arrests of protesters: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/no-kings-p...

The official government account for DHS appears to be run by far-right trolls deliberately trying to provoke a response by using a term openly associated with ethnic cleansing. They will attack anyone who points this out and express faux outrage at the suggestion. They know what they are doing.

By the morals of their times, Slavers were hated by those they enslaved Rapists by those who they raped Murderers by the survivors The morals of the past are the same as today. Assholes are assholes

I hear and see your concerns. Over the weekend, a couple users hosted on Blacksky's PDS were banned from the Bluesky app and thus the Bluesky API servers. This was a weakness of our system I've been aware of and hoped we had more time to address before any kind of public incident. 1/11

There's been a 300 PERCENT increase in FBI domestic terrorism investigations this year www.kenklippenstein.com/p/secretive-...

Y'all who keep lecturing protesters to "not give them an excuse" need to pause for a minute. Imagine yourself telling a DV victim, "Be sure not to mouth off or make any mistakes so he won't hit you. Don't give him an excuse! It's what he wants!" That's what you fools sound like.

I always think of this quote (from They Knew by Sarah Kendzior) when people say this. "'nobody saw it coming' is an admission of whom the speaker considers to be nobody"

Supervisor Dorsey, at a moment when the federal government is threatening to invade San Francisco, we need more ways of holding illegal police surveillance accountable, not less. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

important for us in the US to note: even a solidly right wing government can't ignore this.

Israel committed piracy by illegally intercepting the #GlobalSumudFlotilla in international waters. Human rights defenders, from 46 countries, including Greta Thunberg, were abducted as nearly 40 vessels carrying aid, for genocide & starvation stricken Gaza, were stopped. #3E

“Fuck them kids.” That’s literally what an ICE agent said when ICE, the FBI et al. raided an apartment in Chicago, including with a Blackhawk helicopter, separated children from their parents, and zip-tied them to each other. abc7chicago.com/post/ice-chi...

Activists on board a flotilla of vessels sailing toward Gaza said late Wednesday that the Israeli navy has begun intercepting their vessels as they approach the besieged Palestinian territory. https://to.pbs.org/4gSmMG3

Sacrifice pools if it requires integration with Black people. Sacrifice democracy for the same reason. When the priority is supremacy, those other things only exist conditionally. We were warned about this many times.

There's a lot of speculation about what Trump can & can't do against the left with his new executive orders. To cut thru it, I spoke with FBI counterterrorism veteran turned whistleblower Terry Albury about how he & his old colleagues use the powers they have – and what the average citizen should do

With the mainstream media distracted by the made-for-TV drama of James Comey’s indictment, Trump has signed a little-noticed national security directive identifying “anti-Christian” and “anti-American” views as indicators of radical left violence.

Since 2000 about 80,000 Palestinians have killed in Gaza and the West Bank by the IDF and settlers, the majority after October 2023; at least 350,000 were severely wounded by the IDF; at least 13,000 Palestinian children were kidnapped, 40% sexually abused or raped in Israeli custody since 2014.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Judging from the progress of the #StopCopCity RICO cases, the chief danger is that Trump's executive order designating "antifa" a fabricated "terrorist organization" will intimidate people, enabling the Trump administration to maintain the initiative long enough to escalate to extrajudicial force.

Confirmation that Trump will be signing an executive order designating "antifa"—i.e., opposition to fascism—as "a domestic terrorist organization." What this will mean concretely has yet to be seen. For now, read this guide to preparing communities to endure repression: crimethinc.com/Safeguarding

Heritage Foundation has released an absolutely insane policy proposal to label all trans people as domestic terrorists. It uses completely made up instances of terrorism and made up statistics but facts don't matter to them. They want us all eradicated.

People are wondering how this'll look in action since 'Antifa' is an ideology not a centralized organization but remember when every baby, child & medical practitioner in Gaza was secretly Hamas for the past 23 months? So I think it'll look like whatever's convenient to jam you up at any given time

EFF compiled dozens of cases in which abortion-related information was censored from social media sites, and “we found that almost none of the reported posts actually violated any policies,” EFF’s Lisa Femia told @jezebeldotcom.bsky.social. www.jezebel.com/crucial-inf...

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

It is quite simply dishonest to describe TPUSA as a “free speech” organization and not even mention the “Professor Watchlist,” as NPR just did. Reporting on a crime does not entail adopting the victim’s views.

The problem with stopping escalatory violence is that it requires political factions to see the other side as not an enemy. You can't only find violence targeted at yourself as abhorrent. Which is difficult to square with months of cheerleading for deploying the military to Democratic-run cities.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

At least 10 members of the Infidels Motorcycle Club, a hateful anti-Islam biker gang that promotes violence against Muslims, are serving as military contractors at the deadly U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation sites, with many of them in leadership positions, a new investigation finds.
