does it ever disturb anyone how willing our governments are to drop bombs and murder indiscriminately

Bellingcat CEO @eliothiggins.bsky.social:

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Undocumented immigrants contribute nearly $100 billion in taxes annually. Meanwhile, the top 1% dodge $163 billion every year. It’s not immigrants exploiting the system — it’s the ultra-wealthy.

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

Fine print: *Offer doesn’t apply to Capitol Police

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil. It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men

Wrong, JD. You are wrong and you know it. www.cnn.com/2025/05/21/p...

Reminder: the Taylor Swift and Bruce Springsteen posts are just to distract from the Qatari "gift" or the fact that he's trying to rip Medicare and Medicaid from millions of Americans right now.

What we’re watching this week is the President of the United States using his public office to personally enrich himself. He’s using the office we put him in to take bribes from foreign governments. It’s everything our Founders feared. And we’re letting it all happen right before our eyes.

I just wish he’d save us all money but cutting himself from the DoD. www.cnn.com/2025/05/05/p...

Ashley Babbit's family is poised to recieve 30 million dollars (from tax payers) thanks to the Dept of Justice... Mrs Sicknick just wanted a phone call and the people who assaulted her son Brian held accountable.

Savings is a noble goal, but is savings at the expense of life-saving efforts worth the cost? Especially when this administration has plans to spend on military parades and tax cuts for the wealthy? Trump admin is withholding funds for breast cancer research www.king5.com/mobile/artic...

📌Hold on, goddammit: If tariffs are so good for our economy, why doesn't the White House want us to see what they are actually costing us??????

Just incredible

“Authorities explained that all demonstrations inside congressional buildings are strictly prohibited.” So it’s okay to invade and attack the Capitol on Jan 6, but it’s not okay to pray inside if the prayers oppose against the administration’s actions? premierchristian.news/en/news/arti...

Possibly the best take on this theme.
