This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.

While the world watches Israel's war with Iran, Netanyahu's extremist government continues to starve and massacre Palestinians in Gaza. Today, Israeli forces again opened fire on people desperately trying to collect food aid, killing dozens. Over 56,000 have been killed so far.

More relevant than ever.

I love this idea.

ICE took a mom of 2, including a breastfeeding infant, at a routine immigration appt. Her husband, a disabled vet, is left to care for their children alone, forced to drive hrs just to see his wife in detention 🤬 We are not deporting criminals 🤬 We are not more safe apnews.com/article/ice-...

The West are colonizers and always have been and always will be until the colonialist mindset is uprooted. Gaining independence isn’t enough, because colonialism is a disease that stays long after.

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences. The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences. The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

Congress? You awake?

This seems reasonable.

Compton, CA: A masked, heavily-armed man wearing body armor jumped out of a SUV today to kidnap a local resident. He forgot to put the vehicle in park, causing it to roll down the street damaging other cars. He jumped in the vehicle (which had no platess) and drove off without identifying himself.

CATO: “New nonpublic data from ICE indicates the government is primarily detaining individuals with no criminal convictions of any kind… 93% had no violent convictions… 65% no criminal record at all…” @MarshaBlackburn www.cato.org/blog/65-peop...

ICE agents in tactical gear chase down and tackle a U.S. citizen in L.A. After realizing he’s American, they just slink away. Their only explanation: “Why were you running?” Probably because two masked men with guns were trying to snatch him.

Sayed Naser served as a U.S. military interpreter in Afghanistan. Now he’s being deported. The Taliban assassinated his brother and kidnapped his father. All because he helped us. Why are the feds trying to deport him, even though his asylum case is still pending? Not justice, it’s a betrayal.

A 7-year-old lioness reunites with the man who raised her after she was abandoned as a cub 🦁❤️ He slept beside her outside so she'd grow up as naturally as possible. Now she tackles him with love-hugs, face rubs, pure joy-until they collapse in a pile of trust. 🫶 #WildBond #HeartmeltingNature

He's just instructed ICE to target Blue Cities only Red States can still use immigrants for jobs no one wants Is it starting to sink in for any of his voters? If you are not white, he wants you gone. Legal or not

BREAKING: Gaza’s civil defence agency says Israeli troops shot and killed at least 20 hungry Palestinians and wounded hundreds of others while they waited for food at a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) aid site. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/oq5i6c

Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts? Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

“We’re scrapping our DEI initiative…” From the new Private Eye, out now.

The existence of this poll signals a collapse of the political system. What that means is that authority relations among the offices of government across the country are undergoing a rapid transformation toward top-down authoritarianism. Whether the autocrat should obey courts is now a live question

BORDER PATROL: “Are you an 🇺🇸 citizen?” 🔥 NATIVE AMERICAN WOMAN: “FIRST ONES. We didn’t cross the border, the border crossed us… what are you? You’re not first born. You’re not from this f*ckin’ land. Punk-as* b*tches.”

Oh my god. This is perfection.

Just what I was wondering.

😳 🇺🇸

If the United States saw what the United States is doing in the United States, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.

Update: Democratic House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark have died after they were shot at their home in Brooklyn Park.

It would be so funny if someone in the military parade decided to throw a wrench in something and make like one tank at the front of the march just stall out and get stuck there

In the past week, a union leader has been arrested, a U.S. Rep charged with a crime, a U.S. Senator violently handcuffed, and reporters shot with rubber bullets and detained. There is no ambiguity. This is a regime operating as an authoritarian. Americans who believe in liberty must oppose it.

History will not be kind to Speaker Johnson. Nor should it be.

LAPD This is a public warning—not the kind your tactical goons give, with chest armor and foam rounds and dead eyes behind mirrored shields. No. This is a journalistic warning. You no longer get to control the narrative.

Is Bromance Dead? A Photo Casebook Special The new Private Eye is out now

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

Remember to be safe on June 14. Remember you’ll be among friends. Remember the others are already planning to disrupt every which they can and blame you. Be vigilant. Be aware. Be POWERFUL!! #Holdfast

California representatives did a check in where migrants were being detained. They found no beds, no food and no water. Children were among the detained.

Academic freedom much? Who are the real subversives here? Government overreach much? Is this regime doing anything on merit? Are they firing government workers based on merit? Are they singling out Admirals & Generals and firing them based on merit? Anti-DEI gaslighting is racism. Full stop.

The one meme that actually got to him, is the TACO meme. Oh and Elon tries to reinvent himself: Don't let him.

CHOLESTEROL, JESUS FUCKING CHRIST. HOW MUCH MORE DOES HE NEED TO DO? SPEED THIS SHIT UP

Palestinians describe the difficulty they experience in getting food to survive. When bread becomes a memory "As border crossings remain closed and Gazans are starved of basic supplies, we forage for whatever we can find to survive." wearenotnumbers.org/when-bread-b...
