Whatever is in the Epstein files must be so horrific that the top echelon of society who imbibed at Epstein‘s soirées will kill people and or bring down our government to prevent anyone from discovering the crimes they committed against children.

“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”

Someone needs to tell John Roberts that being the last Chief Justice to serve in an American democracy won’t look good on his Wikipedia page

Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. trib.al/9Sxu9IN

Claim: 10 cars rammed ICE Truth: No cars rammed ICE Claim: She boxed ICE in Truth: ICE boxed her in Claim: She shot a rifle at ICE Truth: She did not have a rifle Claim: ICE returned fire Truth: Only ICE fired Claim: She drove herself to the hospital Truth: Paramedics found her

No President should ever stoke this kind of division and dehumanize the other half of the country in this way.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram. Community action works. Source: www.instagram.com/reel/DPZL2AL...

Chills…

Billionaire liars have bought up almost all of the legacy news organizations in the country in order to ensure no one calls them on their massive lies.

All headlines from today. It’s happening fast, folks. 🇺🇸 www.nytimes.com/2025/10/06/m...

Kind of feels like feds occupying our city for a month, killing one person and shooting another while attacking neighborhoods with chemical weapons and kidnapping hundreds of people already counts as a civil war whether the Guard arrives or not, but what do we know?

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words. The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

Harmeet Dhillon (DOJ) publicly targeted this judge on Twitter a couple weeks ago.

I wonder if Stephen Miller would consider this terrorism.

Trump and Vance want badly to stop you from using the f-word That's because if we accurately call out rising fascism from the streets of Chicago to the waters of the Caribbean, we will understand that we must fight back with the moral strength of war My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/trum...

James Baldwin to Angela Davis in 1970, discussing white Americans:

Yesterday, Kristi Noem’s and Greg Bovino’s masked agents threw chemical agents near an elementary school, arrested elected officials exercising their First Amendment rights, and raided a Wal-Mart.

Two things felt different to the ppl I spoke with who’d been protesting at the ICE building for months. 1st was the sheer volume of tear gas, pepper balls and flash-bangs used, seemingly unprovoked. 2nd was seeing so many videographers/live-streamers embedded with the feds as they marched out.

Won't Junior be mad! 😄 Stephen Colbert to Receive 2025 Ripple of Hope Award from RFK Human Rights - Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights share.google/figZh2vHQovn...

This is really important: ICE says whatever it wants without any evidence to back it up. No one should trust any aspect of the Trump admin. Get the facts first especially before hitting share on social media posts that could be just spreading misinformation. Don't help Trump lie to the country.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

ICE has been paying private security for 24/7 guards to watch a guy with no record whose leg they fucked up so badly he has been in a hospital for over a month, and we wonder why people were handing Tom Homan bags of cash. Via @kyledcheney.bsky.social storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

so is this the fight against "left-wing terrorism"?

Want to know whose shutdown this is? Pay attention to who’s enjoying it.

Jackson decried the 6-3 ruling as “an existential threat to the rule of law” and a “sad day for America”... Looking ahead, she added that the decision would “surely hasten the downfall of our governing institutions, enabling our collective demise”. #Pinks www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

“At some point we are going to move from ‘laws were broken’ to naming those who broke the laws and demand they be brought to justice. DOGE is a criminal gang, and should be treated as such.” @simonwdc.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/simo... bsky.app/profile/ifin... DOGE is now led by Mr Project 2025:

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

BREAKING: Federal judge BLOCKS a new ICE policy that went into effect last week to automatically detain unaccompanied migrant children on their 18th birthday when they “age out” of shelter care. The TRO enforces a court order in a case brought by @immcouncil.org and @immigrantjustice.bsky.social.

A system that can reduce every human relationship to a data point will never stop at border control. Once normalized on the vulnerable, it becomes the template for control of everyone. If you live in Vermont or California & you’re in intel or cyber, consider this ICE role - take over the machine.

BlackRock will buy AES, one of the largest publicly traded utility companies in the U.S. AES is a major power provider for Big Tech companies building out data centers. Yes: while these data centers drive up your electricity costs, wealthy financiers are going to make a killing.

ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

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."

“.. no modern American president has positioned his family to make so much money while in the White House. Already, since the early days of his reelection campaign, he’s more than doubled his net worth to about $5.4 billion.” @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/features/202...

America has only had a small window of democracy in spite of what people claim. Minorities in this country only experienced a semblance of democracy between the 1970s up to the election of Obama. Democracy has been backsliding since then.

I always pay attention to what stories People Magazine and other consumer media outlets cover. That's how you can tell that something has broken through the usual political and news bubbles. This horrific Chicago story has broken through. people.com/ice-agents-o...

Ending Yom Kippur with news of violence here in the U.S. and abroad is heartbreaking. Manchester Jews attacked while at prayer shakes me to my core. Chicago families attacked while sleeping in their apartments shakes me as well. So much violence, all driven by so much hate. 1/

My book answers this question. Dr. Horton is speaking the language of science and medicine. Makary & Bhattacharya are doing something else. They cloak themselves in that language, to spread right-wing talking points and MAHA propaganda. There should be no confusion about this.

Yesterday Republicans told people the racist video Trump posted was just a joke But today.. Today his racism was put into practice when his ICE goons rounded up Black and Brown children in Chicago-including citizens And I bet the families of those kids aren't laughing Nor should anyone else

Jeff is correct. They have zero interest governing. Their concerns are lining their pockets and keeping the oligarchs and racists happy.

They’re baaack. 🤣 Repairs and all…

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

I can’t think of any reason to completely wreck the ag markets in entire United States other than purposeful sabotage. A fire sale on farmland.

“It was heartbreaking to watch,” said Watson. “Even if you’re not a mother, seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.”… “Stuff was everywhere…people’s birth certificates, and papers thrown all over. Water was leaking into the hallway. It was wicked crazy.”
