#NollaignamBan During WWII Kay McNulty was one of the women who devised processing routines for the ENIAC machine, establishing how artificial intelligence developed. At the public launch in 1946 the women programmers were relegated to the role of hostesses. www.dib.ie/biography/mc...

This week: we execute a U.S. citizen. Next week: we take over elections to stop “fraud.” It's so transparent what's going on here.

It seems we have discrepancy in the understanding of how this works here in the US government system. The American people DO NOT TAKE an oath to uphold the law and constitution, the elected officials do. They're the overseers for the American people, that's their job. Stop blaming the masses.

Remember the Epstein files, lol? Yeah, we’re never seeing those.

Nancy Pelosi is speaking before the health care vote. Fair to say there would be no Obamacare without her and, by God, she's going to defend it with her last breath.

Today marks 15 years since Gabby Giffords was shot at a constituent meeting, in an attack that killed 6 and wounded 13. I am proud to cosponsor a bipartisan, bicameral resolution to honor the victims and their families today, and recommit to ending gun and political violence.

All of this is because the United States had a knee jerk (heavy on the jerk) reaction to having a two term black President and not enough people got heir asses out of their recliners to go vote. Good job.

Officer 1: “Get out of the car!” <simultaneously> Officer 2: “Get out of here!” The confusion is not surprising. The shooting officer had his phone out too. This deserves a clear and fair investigation

ICE only has about 20-30,000 employees nationwide. Including desk jobs so there's even fewer armed. It's smaller than the NYPD. There's a reason they do their mega raids on one or two cities at a time, and it's not optics. It's because that's all the dudes they've got. Something to keep in mind.

Walz: "I couldn't help but think, and it scares me a bit -- 'The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most important directive.' It certainly feels like that in this moment."

The more people you can get to campaign for democratic or progressive candidates the better. Whether the race they’re highlighting is for town council or US senate, it’s still important . Not everyone is motivated by the same things to show up on Election Day.

Just a reminder that ALL members of the military and the Secret Service PLEDGE LOYALTY TO THE CONSTITUTION, not a person, to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic". How many take that oath seriously? Maybe they should.

International law: “It depends what your definition of international law is”. Greenland: He wants to own it, just because he thinks he should. This interview alone should be enough to impeach this lunatic, however it won’t….

BREAKING: A 5-4 Supreme Court *refuses* to limit how many times a federal inmate can challenge the legality of their sentence, saying they aren’t limited to one try like state prisoners. Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch & Barrett dissent. #SCOTUS www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

To no one's surprise ICE Thugs are barely literate, poorly trained & prone to violence "Many recruits have criminal backgrounds or can’t pass open-book exams on officer conduct, yet they’re allowed to tear children from their beds at night" -Charlie Pierce www.pbs.org/newshour/sho... #AbolishICE

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

They are behaving like angry alcoholic husbands. 😒 bsky.app/profile/ronf...

A cold-blooded murder was committed inside the United States by an agent of the United States federal government acting under the authority of Donald Trump. That is cause for deep concern by us all — right and left, Democrat and Republican. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/a-cold-blooded-murder

ICE isn't even a quarter of a century old. Roe was older than that and it got torpedoed *and* that was a former SCOTUS decision. ICE is not. don't be so damp.

Day 9 Everyone is talking about war, Venezuela, Greenland, a revolution in Iran, NATO, Russians, Putin, Ukraine peace, ICE raids, ICE killing civilians, protesters, the ACA, Tariffs, MAGA & Trump. But no one is talking about the Epstein Files. The distraction was successful.

Trump’s Greenland strategy is straight out of Surkov’s Russian playbook for Ukraine: paying actors, bribing locals, and threatening to use force. One of the many dangers of this imperialist and insane approach is that when it fails, it leads to war

NEW: "These Billionaires Bet Big On Greenland—After Trump Took Interest" 🇺🇸🤜🇬🇱💰 @martinadilicosa.bsky.social for @forbes.com

OK here's an idea that will appeal to multiple crowds. When Trump is thrown out, let's send him where he keeps saying he wants to go. So he can be unemployed in Greenland.

Even as the administration says it needs Greenland to advance U.S. security interests in the Arctic, it has closed the office set up to advance U.S. security interests in the Arctic. www.theatlantic.com/national-sec...

My favorite outhouse picture ever. I'm in a Southern state of mind today.

Initial jobless claims rose by about 8,000 over last week.

Swalwell: You better believe that accountability is coming. Immunity is going to be stripped. And to Kristi Noem, Tom “Cashbag” Homan, Greg Bovino—your asses are going to be in these witness chairs.

1/2 🧵Tell an authoritarian how much you hate him, and he gets a surge of energy, and comes at you even stronger. Publicly ridicule him...and laugh at him, it's like you wield a magical power. Humiliation destabilizes authoritarians by stripping status...without triggering fear.

Trump: "People come in from Iowa and from Indiana and great places and they end up calling their parents -- 'your son has been killed.' It doesn't happen anymore. Washington DC is a very safe city. We put our National Guard there. They're all central casting. We won the case on merit."

Trump regime forces pulled out out their hand guns threatening to murder protestors in Minnesota. This is a practice that has been widely used by ICE and CBP regime troopers to intimidate civilians nationwide. #3E #EndImpunity #justiceforgood #goodvsevil

unspeakably pathetic stuff from Trump here as he says he'd be honored to accept María Corina Machado's Nobel Prize if she wants to give it up to him

We haven’t done any of those things, as far as I can tell.

The pirate is bragging about his spoils.🙄 Of course this pirate is a liar and none of this is true.

My God. And they're proud of this.

So. We've learned a little more about the shooting, namely that witnesses report that the two ICEholes that got out of the truck gave the driver conflicting orders; one to leave and one to get out of her vehicle. First, here is DHS Use of Force policy in full. 🧵 www.dhs.gov/sites/defaul...

This entire regime consists of depraved sociopaths.

Imo we really let people off the hook unjustly when we don’t attempt to campaign in certain places. I feel like we need to set the expectation that Americans should not be voting for the GOP anytime or anywhere.

NONE OF THIS IS GOING TO STOP UNLESS WE MAKE IT STOP. #FightFascism #FascismInAmerica

The president did not commit to a specific timeline for how long the U.S. will maintain control over Venezuela, adding that he was focused on tapping the country’s rich oil reserves.

BREAKING NEWS: We are opening a formal investigation into the shooting involving federal agents in Portland today. Our office will take every step necessary to ensure the rights and security of Oregonians are protected. #orpol #breakingnews

Gee, I wonder why? Also: We've seen this movie before.

I'm coming to realize America has always functioned as a fascist regime. The oppressors stay the same, but the groups change.
