a nation on edge holds its breath as the former host of celebrity apprentice huddles with his advisors, the wrestlemania ceo and the former co-host of fox & friends weekends

the image of a Jewish man locking himself to an immigrant, his fellow neighbor and a stranger, to keep him from being kidnapped by the American gestapo is making me weep. how could he have done differently when we know what we know?! how can any of us

Someone told me we're the good guys.

Too many people fail to understand the role poverty plays in chronic illness. Money can’t buy health or happiness, but a lack of money can make your health worse & life harder. Universal healthcare & basic income would do more to create a healthier society than all the “wellness” in the world.

I love that a politician can say something like “I believe mice naturally spawn out of grain” and the news will now just treat that as a legitimate line of thought

LAPD is illegally sharing license plate data with ICE and Border Patrol. Under California law, police agencies are barred from sharing license plate reader data with out-of-state public agencies or federal entities.

Fell behind on Andor, so am catching up. Watched Episode 9 this evening. You know. The wild one where they arrest a Senator after manufacturing a fake crisis that required the military to put down protestors. So unrealistic.

They’re beating you down to let them use your hard-earned taxes to arrest your neighbors & fund endless war overseas. They want to divide you and then stuff their pockets while you’re busy fighting each other. And if you dare try to interrupt it—to see your neighbor as you—they’ll go after you next

To boast about this is….wow

Literally describing themselves as occupying a blue state like hostile territory with the military and federal forces.

En Vogue was sooooo good.

Met an active duty member of the military yesterday who filed conscientious objector paperwork in response to deployment of military on U.S. soil. Was told multiple Army have filed, unknown quantities in other branches.

IT MAY BE THE ANARCHISTS

Guy who thinks he's a strongman:

No country has ever been destroyed by migrants just wanting a better life for their family. Many though have been destroyed by authoritarianism and fascism.

If you want to show solidarity with Los Angeles, the best thing to do is organize protests against ICE tonight/tomorrow in your own cities. Search the web for ICE rapid response networks in your own city / state and sign up. Help your neighbors.

I have been at the protest action against ice and federal forces on Lake Street here in Minneapolis for the last hour and but I will be posting photos and videos of the altercation with federal forces protesters, as well as assault of multiple peaceful protesters in this thread.

1. Florida banned cities from lighting up bridges rainbow colors for Pride. So the people of Jacksonville did it themselves using flashlights and gels. They opened the drawbridge to block them. So they marched to a different bridge. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.
