Thought crimes. They are proposing the practice of deporting people for thought crimes. If you're not familiar with Minority Report, go read/watch how this goes over 😞

Ambassador Spock modeling the proper “fuck you, make me” response to intimidation tactics. Our current-day institutions could learn a lot from him.

The U.S. House of Representatives voted Thursday to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, a major voter suppression measure that, if it became law, could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters and badly undermine U.S. democracy. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The House just passed its budget resolution, so reconciliation is now officially underway. This is their bill to destroy Medicaid and SNAP while cutting taxes disproportionately for the rich. THIS IS VERY REAL and can be enacted even if all Ds vote no. Thread on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT.

Timeline cleanse - here, have a kitty cat enjoying her favorite springtime treat. Spring fescue >> potted cat/wheatgrass. 😸

Uhh - also really scary.

Modern slavers 😨 Absolutely ghoulish.

@edhawkins.org posted a version of this a few weeks ago - not sure how I missed it. It has a terrifying clarity of message

The level of corruption is just sickening.

Power & Politics is THE best daily recap of all of the madness these days. Honest, smart, straightforward, and funny, all in one go. Host David Cochrane is just 😙🤌💋 youtu.be/fGIiOjiTing?...

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

🤣 The sad thing is I don't think they're even this organized...

Kozak Ukrainian Eatery is more than a successful small business — it’s a pillar of the community here in New Westminster. Thanks to the staff for the warm welcome, and the pastries for the road. #SlavaUkraini

Still a great video. "Someone is going to get something out of it, and it isn't you." Remember that when PP and Smith and others are preaching their division and privatization - that money is going somewhere, and it's not you/average Canadians.

You cannot "deport" your own citizens to foreign prison camps. Wtaf.

Why bringing manufacturing back to the US just doesn't cut it. People could make a living wage in the existing sectors if they wanted - they just don't.

Down court! Down king! For night-owls shriek where mounting larks should sing.

It’s a recalibration of economic control. Oligarchs don’t live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way. When the dust finally settles, they will own more. The rest of us will own less. A lot less.

"The implication...is that not only noncitizens but also U.S. citizens could be taken off the streets, forced onto planes, and confined to foreign prisons with no opportunity for redress if judicial review is denied unlawfully before removal. History is no stranger to such lawless regimes..."

My plan to protect our nature and waters will draw on the wisdom of Indigenous traditions, the power of modern technology, and the strength of a united Canada.

Important decisions and law being upheld 🇺🇸 no, you cannot disappear people and deport them to foreign countries.

The Fourth Circuit is famously succinct. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Sigh 😔

Fed Judge: “They do indeed cling to the stunning proposition that they can forcibly remove any person—migrant and U.S. citizen alike—to prisons outside the US, and then baldly assert they have no way to effectuate return because they are no longer the ‘custodian’..." www.huffpost.com/entry/maryla...

In just two months, DOGE has —lost— the government an estimated half a trillion dollars. I propose that Musk pay it back personally.

Leopard: I will eat your face Bank analysts: Our baseline assumes no face-eating Leopard: Chomp chomp chomp

“Facing pressure to scrub its website of diversity and inclusion references, a Japanese American National Museum leader says the museum will ‘scrub nothing.’” 🔥

Of all the horrible picks, I think I hate RFK the most 😡 I can only hope that the other countries of the world pick up this and so, so many other research topics quickly and continue the work. 🙏 🌏

Radio-Canada/CBC est un pilier de notre identité canadienne.  Nous annonçons un financement à long terme plus important et une modernisation de son mandat pour diffuser davantage d’informations locales et de mieux informer les Canadiens en cas d’urgence.

It's time to renew CBC/Radio-Canada's mandate, and ensure it remains a strong, representative national public broadcaster.

We’re strongest when we’re united. So we must protect the things that bring us together — like CBC/Radio-Canada.

“We’re reinstating them. And that was always the plan. ... we’re going to do 80% cuts, but 20% of those are going to have to be reinstated, because we’ll make mistakes.” Ummm, ok - pretty sure if "fuck up 1/5 of my job" was the plan, I wouldn't last very long. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The answer to “why are they doing this?!” is always “for multiple reasons ranging from nakedly stupid to calculatedly evil in service of a feckless coalition of the greedy and malicious.” The endless search for a unified psyche here is such a self-inflicted DDOS 🫠
