men have been dressing up as police officers for a long time to rape and kill women, and most recently have been dressing up as ICE officers to do the same and nobody seemed to care about it or think it was worth doing anything about and just like DV as a precursor to mass shootings, here we are

There is no such thing as an overreaction with what has now happened. This is the line in the sand. Every red hat who supports killing Americans is a traitor.

Only the secret police get to wear a mask

It's a private security goon, military contractor and international criminal for hire. The list of places he's worked is a litany of the world's most politically violent places; his job is political violence.

No Kings flagship rally in Philadelphia opens with Rev. Barber: We have heard that lawmakers in Minnesota have been killed…In this moment, my brothers and sisters, let us repent as a nation for all of this violence and death.

Minnesota police acknowledge that the targeted attack on lawmakers is an act of terrorism — politicly motivated with the intention/goal of intimidating civilians

Targeted by a politically motivated assassin, Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark are dead. Sen. John Hoffman was also shot — yet not one fucking word from the fascist authoritarian despot who is responsible for making political violence commonplace in America. 😡

He said this yesterday. A Minnesota democratic lawmaker was assassinated today by some some psycho cosplaying a cop.

It’s not hyperbole to say that the deaths in Minnesota are on the GOP’s hands. They’ve built this political environment and they’ve allowed a demagogue to spread hate. This is entirely on them.

This is devastating. And yes, this is a political assassination. I have ZERO difficulty calling it that. Because that’s the truth. Period. Disgusting. Stay safe today, everyone.

Louder for the people in the back: "It has been a public health failure that the public does not realize how much organ damage #COVID infection can cause to things that aren’t your lungs (or throat or nose or taste buds)." The image below is based on data collected from 80,071 kids and teens:

“‘Elbows up’ turned into stares of disbelief at measures posited by Carney’s Liberal government. It’s one of the most profound political reverses on the Canadian public, proving that while Carney charms us in front, he is stripping our rights behind our backs.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

ICE is going to parks in Los Angeles and kidnapping nannies who are caring for small children The children are witnessing these kidnappings and being held in custody until their parents are contacted Women and children in parks

It has been a public health failure that the public does not realize how much organ damage COVID infection can cause to things that aren’t your lungs (or throat or nose or taste buds)

The first known detention by the US Marines in their recent Los Angeles deployment is of... a US Army veteran on his way to an office at the Department of Veteran Affairs building. www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

Do you ostracize children who use inhalers for their asthma? Then why do it to kids who wear masks to protect themselves and their community members? jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

The darkest but most important story you’ll read today, especially if you or your family uses ChatGPT:

NYT found the “big beautiful bill” would be the largest transfer from the poor to the rich in a single law since at least 1990. In fact, it would be the largest transfer *ever.* Reagan’s low-income cuts were MUCH smaller - and his tax cuts were done separately. And before him, nothing comes close.

ICE (and other agencies) is getting quite a lesson in how much in a democracy law enforcement is contingent on the permission of the governed.

overheard in a discussion with other faculty: "since Roe v Wade was overturned, 80% of the faculty Texas A&M has hired have been male."

Attending a protest this weekend? Here's a guide on how to best protest safely, what to bring, and what to do if you're confronted by officers. www.wired.com/story/how-to...

“None of the women I met at the halfway house could cite positive past relationships with men, yet all were encouraged to pursue reentry plans that involved men.”

We need to be more vocal in rejecting the proposals of the current government in Sweden to inquire about citizenship removal of some immigrants. 👇 "Hungarian parliament adopts law on suspending citizenship on grounds of being a threat to public order or national security" telex.hu/english/2025...

For the Walrus, I've been working on a story about what happens after young survivors testify in court—specifically the lack of trauma support once trials end. If you’re a survivor or advocate who’s felt this gap firsthand, I’d love to chat (on or off the record). DMs open or email in bio

June 12, 2025. A suspected Indian government agent had Jagmeet Singh under close surveillance, prompting the RCMP to put the former NDP leader under tight police protection in 2023, sources have told Global News. youtu.be/fMkZbAvoWVg?...

"Protests in the U.S. have been robust since Trump took office [in 2025]. Within the first two weeks of the second Trump administration, protest activity surpassed that of 2017." By April, there had been three times as many protests as in same period in 2017. wagingnonviolence.org/2025/06/amer...

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference. But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

If you are in #Ottawa come to the #TeslaTakedown solidarity protest at 11 am tomorrow. 835 Carling Avenue. Then head to the #NoTyrants protest at the US embassy at 2 pm. Even stopping for 10 minutes to join us is great. #NoKings #TeslaTakedown #MuskMustFall @indivisibleottawa.bsky.social

It isn’t just that the #Tesla hit the child, it’s that the self-driving feature does a hit and run after. It just speeds up and takes off. If you watch videos by journalists who were inside the cars for this test, they point that out. It’s scary and disgusting. #TeslaTakedown #MuskMustFall

Wow. It’s hard to tell satire apart from reality sometimes. This applies to Canada too. #cdnpoli #Canada #CanadaSky

Doug Ford WTF? Pay our pilots now!

He. Was. In. A. Federal. Building. He went through security to enter.

Doug Ford was lying his ass off about the greenbelt when he was trying to bulldoze it over. Yeah. No kidding toronto.citynews.ca/2025/06/12/r...

DHS is arguing members of the Secret Service don't know who a U.S. Senator is, that he didn't identify himself (he does in the tape), lunged towards the Noem (not evident on the tape), and somehow all this necessitated him being hauled away, thrown to the ground and cuffed. x.com/DHSgov/statu...

A couple of months ago, I posted a checklist of things one could do to be useful in these days of rising fascism. Here’s Part Two of that list—more focused on ways to protect you and those in your tightest circles of care. Part One is embedded and also skeeted below.

A colleague sent me an article about how so many people between the ages of 18 and 40 are having strokes, so I replied with several studies documenting the link between Covid and strokes, and my colleague replied that he was sure this was just a coincidence.

Hegseth suggests Pentagon has 'contingency' plans to take Greenland by force www.bbc.com/news/videos/...

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state Keep that same energy of support for her
