Thank you to my son and his day care for this terrifying Father’s Day gift.

As I said yesterday, under no circumstances should you hand it to Tehran

Caturday Wahima Lino

This guy is just posted up outside of Congress and I’m honestly not sure what his political views are but I agree

So… does Iran have a right to defend itself?

DHS is also lying about him being repeatedly told to back away. The video shows the men who pushed him don’t even open their mouths, they just grab him and get them out of the room without saying a word.

Good morning friends. This kid is spot on 👏🏼💙

...and replies

BUT MY CAR

“This could poll well with midterm swing voters in Ohio” I remark sagely as I watch a fourth grader get bundled into an unmarked van at recess by armed and masked agents of the state.

Drove my kids to school this morning, passing by the flood wall being built next to the river and under smoky skies partially obscuring the downtown towers in the heart of oil country. This is the dystopia I read about in the sci-fi books. The future is right now and it sucks.

Watching nearly every political party in the UK chase the same 20% of the worst people in the country, ignoring the other 80%, just to please the papers. Nothing will change in the UK until the papers are taken in hand. Not all the media, just the papers. The rest will flow from there.

Almost feel like making an exception to my boycott of visiting the States for a solidarity trip to LA. Almost. Sorry guys. My heart is with the protesters though.

This is a fever dream. The city is not under migrant occupation. This whole thing kicked off because ICE began an intense operation across the city to raid Home Depots and nail salons and places where random undocumented immigrants might be going about their day working a job.

Still waiting for the article that’s like “these right wing militia members are in a bubble and it would be healthier if they exposed themselves to left wing ideas”

It absolutely is, and the sooner y'all admit that the sooner we can all move on.

kind of just endlessly sad and grieving that there are so few voices in the public sphere making the basic principled argument that immigration is an affirmative good in every way and the best way for this country to serve humanity is to welcome people who want or need to leave their homes

They'll get closer.

www.theguardian.com/society/2025... This needs to go to the ECtHR. The sooner the better. I'd love to work on it.

I think whoever brought these charges should be fired (into the sun).

this is what internationalist intersectionality looks like

"PEOPLE FROM OTHER COUNTRIES" PET, DO YOU THINK WE ARE PAID MORE????

once again I must tap my own sign

The Polish foreign minister, a writer and journalist who covered the Soviet war in Afghanistan in the 1980s, clearly knows a thing or two about a patiently-timed response.

*sets timer*

I love how this is so much like a big budget American version of the Boris/Cummings break-up.

All of this.

Let it be 🧎‍♀️

Yeah that's a long time to wait, let's get on with it folks

White women! I’m calling you! This is your calling! Document this! Ask questions! Exactly like this. Don’t scream. Be forceful. Practice this.

Emotional support night vision goggles.

These people are just wrong about literally everything.

Channel that passive-aggressive righteousness to the good, and Karens to the front and form up!
