Over 2 million people across Italy have rallied in more than 100 cities for a one-day general strike.

Watching Jay, I realize I am simply exhausted by folks in positions of leadership who are driven to distraction by critique. If you can't function with critique and pushback, a leadership position is not for you. Leadership REQUIRES you to absorb and process the critique of stakeholders.

This @theguardian.com headline really reads like one from @theonion.com. It also shows the consequences of conflating disruptive social movements with real terrorism, such as the Manchester attack.

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

The average country music song is the most embarrassing shit you've ever heard. I've now been subjected to three in a row at the spot I'm having lunch at and each one is somehow worse than the prior one.

“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...

There is a gulf in America. I submit it is the gulf between good and evil, or at least not-evil and evil. The gulf is not just between people who oppose this and people who are indifferent to it or reluctantly accept it in support of immigration policy or see it as collateral damage. /1

CBS News will now be a megaphone for the country's most vicious crusader against free speech, and the most relentless propagandist of far-right disinformation. Cancel Paramount Plus, call every CBS advertiser until their only remaining ads are for MyPillow and Daily Stormer.

so the US government just forced a tech company to delete an app it doesn’t like, which is totally normal stuff www.404media.co/iceblock-own...

My god. “Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

like a lot of rapid changes in opinion, this is personal if you are a sports fan in this demographic, or even sports-adjacent, you almost certainly know someone who has ruined their life with sports betting

Today, Oct.2nd, is the anniversary of Jamal Khashoggi’s murder by Saudi agents.

"Standard Procedure" Does your job make you feel unclean? Like you're coated in a fine layer of corporate grime? Reclaim your soul, one launched potato at a time, with the Spudzooka. Open source blueprints on the dark web. You didn't hear this from us. #Art #DigitalArt #ComicStrip #Capitalism

Another flaw in the liberal belief that the left and right are mirrors of each other while the center is "good." Not only does the left and right want complete opposite things (liberation vs domination), but the left roots its ideology in material analysis while the right roots its own in bullshit.

ERA of infinity lmfao

THEY CLOSED PUBLIC POOLS RATHER THAN SWIM WITH BLACK PEOPLE YOU ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME GROUP OF PEOPLE AS THE FOLKS WHO DID THIS PLEASE WAKE THE FUCK UP

Stephanie and Najia started "Deafies for Zohran" to make this movement accessible to their community. They even created a signature hand sign for “Zohran.” Sign up for a shift and wave 👋🏻 the next time you’re canvassing in Jackson Heights!

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality. I don't know how to yell any louder.

Mike Johnson is delaying the certification of Adelita Grijalva’s victory in Arizona’s special election last week. This move prevents Democrats from securing the final signature needed to force a House floor vote and release the Epstein files.

Too often, we talk about homelessness as if it's natural or inevitable. The truth is that it's a political choice. When then-Gov. Cuomo cut the Advantage program rather than tax his wealthy donors, his decision sent thousands of New York families into shelters.

Don’t worry, once we’ve helped them come for immigrants and trans people, they’re sure to be appeased and dedicated to solidarity in our great big tent and not come after anyone else, as history teaches

We need a bigger tent, that’s why we must betray and expel the following types of people:

Trump: ‘Another Thing Epstein And I Never Did Is Play Nude Charades’

Mahalo @willcaron.bsky.social Everyone please read. www.patreon.com/posts/lei-of...

"Lei of the Land." An Israeli government-sponsored trip costs us not in dollars, but in principle. It's a cost paid in the devaluation of Aloha. It tells the world that in Hawaiʻi, our most cherished symbol can be weaponized to bless a genocide. #art #artwork #digitalart #cartoon #editorialcartoon

To the Daily Beast staffer who put “79” into this headline, know this: We salute you.

So exhausting..

In which a top US Border Patrol official, incredibly, tells my tall and Anglo colleague @chipmitchell1.bsky.social that he's not the type they're looking for as they go about downtown Chicago arresting people based on "how they look" chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

There is a difference between righteous anger, directed at injustice, and hateful anger, directed at those who are different. Authoritarian regimes deliberately conflate the two to silence criticism and create false equivalence. It's important we don't let those in power succeed in this endeavor.

🚨This is a big deal: suburban chicago police launch an investigation into an ICE attack on local CBS news journalists.

There have been multiple shootings today in the United States. Inside a Mormon church in Michigan. A waterfront bar in North Carolina. On Bourbon Street in New Orleans, Louisiana.

NEW: The death toll in the shooting and fire at a Mormon church in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, has risen to 4, officials said.

Really living up to the Satanic implications of his name.

So far today, Chuck Schumer has said his strategy for preventing Trump sending troops into blue cities is to win over Republican senators (!) while Hakeem Jeffries praised Eric Adams's courage and authenticity (!!) while refusing to endorse Mamdani. Again. These two gotta go.

Iraq War veteran Thomas Sanford has been identified as the gunman who attacked Grand Blanc Mormon church, killing 2 people and setting it ablaze. Out of the three mass shootings today, two of them have been carried out by Iraq war veterans.

Targeted attack on a dockside restaurant in North Carolina. Three dead. Suspect a former Marine sniper in Iraq and Haiti who tried to sue the US govt for “genocide against straight men by the LGBQT community.” Flags at half mast? Endless op-eds? Victims’ faces on coins? www.cnn.com/2025/09/28/u...

Literally cannot believe there are dingbats with their heads this far up their own asses still.

[on cable news with the ruins of Alderaan behind him] HAKEEM JEFFRIES: Palpatine said he would lower healthcare costs.

This shouldn’t be a controversial statement at all. If you have even spent a short time examining race & class you would know the biggest thing keeping whitefolk broke is whiteness What are they dismantling every social safety net & having soldiers push grandmas down under the banner of Right Now?

Let’s all be on the same page, when you continually fire career FBI agents, you’re dismantling the very infrastructure meant to stop threats like church shootings before they happen. That’s why the rhetoric is so forceful about a “leftist enemy”. It’s cover for their own sabotage

Justice Kavanaugh: “If the person is a U. S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter.”

Plus: Elsewhere, in south Texas, seven were shot – two of whom were killed – in a shooting at a casino early Sunday. And in New Orleans, one woman was killed and three other people were wounded in a shooting on the city’s popular Bourbon Street, also early on Sunday.

It's the fuckin guns........ BREAKING: Multiple victims injured, church on fire after shooting in Grand Blanc, Michigan. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4I0n...

Weimar motherfuckers be like

Our cities aren’t war ravaged. They’re ICE ravaged.

We are watching a coordinated right-wing takeover of popular media and it won’t stop here. archive.today/bXzZd

Do we say a man is sane when he calls in the military to fight a war when there is no war? If such a man is not sane, do we have a solution to stop the madness if he’s in the White House?
