An account that just spends their TikToks posting their pregnancy diary posted a video of Matt Gaetz on the plane with them. He then reviews a text chain on his phone with his mother. The person has posted it under satire to not get in trouble. The thing is the video may indeed be real. /

La famille du jeune homme tué par un tir policier, en août 2021, vient d’apprendre que neuf scellés avaient disparu du dossier, dont l’ogive mortelle. Sorties du greffe pour les besoins de l’enquête, ces pièces sont « introuvables » au sein du tribunal. Par @camillepolloni.bsky.social

I remember the build-up to the Iraq "war" and at least, some EU leaders had the courage to somewhat stand up to the US. Now that the EU is a balancing act of centrists and fascists, there's no one with an ounce of said courage. What a shameful display.

"Not for you." Palestinian citizens of Israel--21% of the population--are being excluded from bomb shelters on the basis of their ethnicity. This is the society the West will defend at all costs. www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/6/...

We keep seeing the issue with the "peaceful" protest narrative. It puts protestors in a "no win" position. Police tactics are to escalate, provoke, and then claim they are "deescalating" and stopping "violence". Their provocations not only disrupt the protests but allows them to shape the narrative.

Every politician that says "Israel has a right to defend itself" or "Israel has a right to exist" in the year 2025 is either insincerely pandering, a moron, or both.

TYRANNY IS HERE: US citizen, minding his own business on his way to work, gets ambushed by ICE, dragged out of his car, thrown in cuffs, and treated like a criminal — in his own country. This is the price you pay for simply existing in America today.

Dies ist kein Fake. Es handelt sich um ein neues Plakat, das Frontex entworfen hat, um Kindern während einer Abschiebung zu erklären, was gerade geschieht und wie es weitergeht. Die eigene Abschiebung als Abenteuergeschichte. 🤯

Removing pepperball residue from clothing and other items. This is based on my (unfortunately extensive) personal experience and experimentiation. Pepperballs contain powdered PAVA, an oily, synthetic capsaicin analog. The only reliable way to remove it is with a good surfactant soap and water. 1/

Remember this image every time someone tells you that protesters are "hurting their cause." Those people are the red bars. In 40 years, we'll look back at them the same way.

Whenever people talk about non-violent resistance to a fascist government I think about how Ghandi's advice to German Jews was and I quote "The Jews should have offered themselves to the butcher’s knife. They should have thrown themselves into the sea from cliffs" Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

If you stop thinking that Germany's response to anything Israel is about Holocaust guilt and instead about rewriting German history, you'd understand German politics better. 🧵

Liberals fear that if people act unruly, Trump will be able to impose totalitarian control. That gets things backwards. Trump is already imposing totalitarian control. That's what is driving people into the streets. It's too late to avoid this fight. We can be passive and lose—or give it our all.

Reminder that Waymo is a project of Google, whose CEO, Sundar Pichai, attended Trump's inauguration. Waymo is also one of the frontline companies pushing automation across the US, threatening blue-collar livelihoods everywhere. Good night, tech-right.
