It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

Gonna be thinking about this lede for a minute.

The Oregon Republican Party tried to help Donald Trump make the case for military intervention in Portland with an image of a fiery protest — but since Portland is calm, they had to fabricate one by merging old photos of police in Ecuador and protesters in Brazil www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Greta Thunberg: "I could talk for a very, very long time about our mistreatment and abuses in our imprisonment. Trust me. But that is not the story. What happened here was Israel… continuing to worsen and escalate their genocide and mass destruction with genocidal intent, attempting to erase an...

Please note that the things Mills is most mad about—false calls, and his officers being exposed to chemical weapons—have nothing to do with the feds attacking protesters. He's perfectly happy to have ISP do that instead so long as his guys are unbothered.

But I guess it’s terribly inconvenient to challenge your own understanding of this country. It’s way easier to ignore the harm the U.S. has inflicted on its colonies for over a century and pretend fascism began this year.

Attn Black people, stop scrolling. This is not a drill: Chicago

Breaking news: ICE stops family at gunpoint—smash car window on top of newborn baby. "I was screaming that there was a baby. But they didn’t care," cried mother. “I covered my baby with my body—I was so scared he was going to be hurt because glass was landing on him."

In the past 4 weeks in Chicago, ICE/CBP have snatched hundreds of people off the streets & homes, shot & killed a single-father in his car, smashed & abandoned countless cars, and deployed chemical munitions at protesters, journalists, & now on public streets. Today they cuffed an alderperson.

It's a minor thing, but I do find it quite hilarious that the administration came for the ADL first. After Greenblatt went to bat for the Nazis over and over and he got it first. Imagine getting outplayed by the worst businessman ever but instead of business it's that you sold out your own community

if you’ve ever even quietly thought “i would just move,” now’s your chance to pony up and make that possible for not just someone but three someones.

🚨🚨 My dear friend and fellow academic, the Palestinian American sociologist @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social has been taken by the Cook County Sheriff near Chicago. They have not mirandized her. Please signal boost. All eyes on Broadview for Eman and the community she was defending 🚨🚨

Consumerism is kind of undeniably a political system, and we get twisted because of that unacknowledged frame People have tangibly expressed more political power as a customer than they ever have with voting. It comes off as learned helplessness that they can’t perceive themselves as anything else

Market capitalism my a**.

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.

Now that’s bleak.

Any news today about Mike Johnson’s Grindr?

No comment

This is ridiculous. How about some of the millionaires and billionaires who live and/or work in this city pay their fair share and public transit is free?

"Inhumane conditions." The Resurrection Project says that's what immigrants are facing inside Broadview's ICE facility.

“The behavior was pure misogynistic abuse, and it’s a growing movement in American culture right now.” www.glamour.com/story/the-mi...

It isn’t just big Hollywood films/TV scooped up to train these models. YouTube, etc., have been scraped as training data. That means independent copyright holders have grounds to sue. You can see which creators here:

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka. I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws. Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

It’s so much

The challenges we now face must be met by a bold progressive populist movement that strengthens democracy and shakes up the system. We can’t simply return to the path we were on before Trump. We cannot accept the status quo of Big Money dominating our politics and economy.

Same as it ever was.

NYPD raided the home of a professional photojournalist, arrested them & seized their equipment because they reported on the aftermath of a paint protest against @nytimes.com. NYPD arrested with aggravated harassment and criminal mischief. @pressfreedom.bsky.social #JournalismIsNotaCrime

This is excellent

It does not seem to have clicked for anyone that there are also ostensibly pro-climate energy analytics organisations doing something pretty similar to this in how they're approaching communications and advocacy......

🚨 IMPORTANT THREAD 🚨 People are protesting the Broadview ICE facility tonight. This will likely be an extremely high-risk action. I caution you to consider your risk level before attending. I will not attend. Attendance risks your safety, but also the safety of Broadview residents + detainees. 1/6

Good news for the timeline!!!

Among other things, we often contrast in Greek military thought between the personal-excellence 'Achilles' ethos and the clever-tactics 'Odysseus' ethos. Whereas Pete Hegseth recalls the Ajax-the-Lesser ethos of being forgettably bland and unimpressive except for doing a bunch of sexual assault.

So far there have been zero trans women reported as having visited epsteins pedo island. But lots of people who want you to think trans women are threats to children seemed to have gone there at some point. Curious...

BREAKING: A federal judge has ordered the University of South Dakota to reinstate a professor who posted criticism of Charlie Kirk on his Facebook page the day of the shooting, finding the action likely violated the First Amendment. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Another desperate attempt by people who can’t stand the idea of New Yorkers electing their mayor instead of billionaires buying one.

If the teen daughter of two A-list stars had picked a media friendly cause to advocate for, I’d imagine their would be profiles and photo shoots of her in every women/teen-aimed magazine in the country. And yet.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station. List here: sbgi.net/tv-stations/

I took Tylenol as needed throughout my pregnancy. I am a doctor. I order Tylenol for pregnant women regularly. Tylenol is safe in pregnancy. RFK Jr is ignoring a huge recent well-done study because he doesn't like the answer it gives. There is no causality between Tylenol and autism.

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

I gave my heart and soul to that place. Built entire sections for journalists pushed out of their home countries. When the writer I hired, Jamal Khashoggi was murdered by Saudi Arabia, they paraded me around as a symbol for press freedom. I put MY LIFE on the line to defend journalism and WaPo.

Two of the people taking heat on the frontlines for all of us.

a key reason they see an opening for such a blatant speech crackdown is that they already did one to Palestinian and anti-genocide activists and it got enthusiastic bipartisan approval
