i think these professional antivaxxers are literally demonic www.bbc.com/news/article...

In LA, we have the right to film law enforcement in public spaces, as long as we do not interfere. Arturo Hermosillo says he was arrested for doing exactly that. He was in his van when he saw an older woman, a local tamale vendor, lying on the ground during an immigration raid & started recording.

WATCH: “This is f*cking kidnapping! That’s not your badge… I do have a little bit of education… get the f*ck out of here, racial profiling is illegal…” A brave woman melts ice 🧊 💪🏽 www.instagram.com/reel/DLOWbEs...

Is it too late to give Sacha Baron Cohen an Oscar for this? Not a damn lie told. 🇺🇸

Giannoulias: We passed a bill through our office that became law to make sure that automatic license plate readers could not be used in cases involving abortion or immigration. We found out a few weeks ago was that a law enforcement agency in Texas was using these automatic license plate readers

This is it, summed up ⬇️

It's not often i manage to capture more than one Kingfisher in the same photo, so here's my #StunDay capture for this lovely warm Sunday morning with 2 of them on the same reed at Rodley Nature Reserve. #birds #wildlife #EastCoastKin #ukbirding @rspb.bsky.social #naturephotography #birdphotography

Wealthy men starting wars because of their inability to emotionally regulate is a tale as old as time. Who suffers most? Civilians and the working class young people shipped over to fight in a country we have no business being in. & the wealthy profit off of it from the safety of their mansions.

Sad to see the #WillRogers house in YOUNG PHILADELPHIANS. It was lost in the Malibu fires in January. #TCMparty

you’ll never lose betting against the ability of a pro-war pundit to remember past yesterday

i almost can’t read this it makes me so angry. delusional grifters with purity fetishes and eugenic worldviews have brought pain, suffering and death to children www.nytimes.com/2025/06/22/u...

For anyone who had any doubt the felon will bomb Canada or Panama, it should be gone now! A unilateral decision to bomb Iran was made without Congress today! You know how it works, he keeps pushing the envelope and no one ever stops him!

Here's an idea. Dem Governors & Mayors should be ordering their local law enforcement to arrest any & all unidentified and masked alleged ICE agents. If a random guy in a mask grabbed someone and threw them in a vehicle, we'd call that a kidnapping. Why not here? 1/2

@kamalaharris.com was right about everything.

This statement from Mahmoud Khalil on his release from prison is obviously correct. By associating supporting Israel with illiberalism in the US, Trump is going to turn a whole generation against Israel. (www.nytimes.com/2025/06/22/n...)

His parade was a flop so he had to get his narcissistic injury healed by dropping bombs on Iran.
