Glendale in California is terminating its contract with the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Since 2007 the city has jointly with DHS and ICE operated a facility for immigrant detainees.

Peter Lay ‘Gibb swings BBC further to the right: He “was identified by former BBC Newsnight presenter Emily Maitlis in 2022 as an “active agent of the Conservative party” and also drew controversy for his role at the Reform-supporting GB News.’ bylinetimes.com/2025/06/09/b...

To serve and protect who ???

Watch the slow motion: it appears to me that the officers discuss the photographer and reporter before the one on the end fires on them (it looks to me like he's aiming at the camera, not the reporter, but you decide)

Quite the view from space today.

Rumors that Loginov could be facing trouble with law enforcement first surfaced in the spring of 2024.

Interesting: Despite the relentlessly negative media coverage, most people in the UK want to stay in the European Convention on Human Rights👇 🔗 yougov.co.uk/topics/inter... via @yougov.co.uk #ECHR #OurRightsAndFreedoms

I'm trying not to conclude that @teamlabouruk.bsky.social is about to sacrifice maximising economic growth on the altar of electoral deference to the Farage agenda, but this morning I am finding it quite difficult.

We are witnessing the first stages of Trump’s police state | Robert Reich

GRETA THUNBERG AND HER FRIENDS HAVE BEEN KIDNAPPED. THE MADLEEN WAS BRINGING DESPERATELY NEEDED FOOD AND BABY FORMULA. THEY WERE UNARMED. THERE IS NO JUSTIFICATION. Fuck this. The world will not stand for this any longer. #breakingnews #gretathunberg #freedomflotilla

A year and a half ago few paid attention, and suddenly everyone is talking about it. It's the exact same information as back then: the US is sabotaging its own tech sector thanks to a tax change from 2017. In @pragmaticengineer.com covered it in detail: blog.pragmaticengineer.com/section-174/

Please share! #LA #protest

The Chaser never misses.

She warned us

In a dangerous era for journalism – a powerful new tool to help protect sources - @theguardian.com and University of Cambridge has launched Secure Messaging, a world-first from a media organisation www.theguardian.com/membership/2...

Here is a fascinating account of the science of crowd control technology and tactics that is not intended to be used as a guide for protestors but hey I’m not the how to read a science news article cops www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-...

OK, the Gov showing some steam. I take it all back. He's out there fighting w/ us and he will succeed.

Nazi Ice ass wipes, maliciously, and purposely shot an Australian reporter with rubber bullet with her back turned #Resist

Ukrainian Special Operations Forces, in coordination with other Defense units, struck two aircraft at the "Savasleyka" airbase in Russia’s Nizhny Novgorod region, the General Staff reports. Preliminary assessment: likely damage to a MiG-31 and a Su-30/34. Results are being verified.

Trump: “BRING IN THE TROOPS!!!”

One follower, Pathfinder (@pathfinder415.bsky.social) made a video in which he recaps the week in WTF. Good video, good listen too. At the 4:25 mark you can see a cop aiming and shooting a rubber bullet at a reporter at the LA protests. Free press, eh? www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtHQ...

Ok but they have to stop shooting and beating folks though

💥 SBS drone pilots, using Switchblade 600 kamikaze drones in the Zaporizhzhia direction, destroyed several enemy Buk with subsequent detonation of the ammunition.

As the National Guard stands by — fingers on their triggers, ready to fire upon their fellow citizens at a moment’s notice — we must not let this be normalized. Way too much that is unacceptable has already been accepted! Forget R’s and D’s —this should be unacceptable to all Americans!

Elsewhere...I believe in..Florida??

“People are going to start to come to that realization over the next few days. This is the big one.” “We felt like that was a dangerous, slippery slope… that Donald Trump would end up taking control of national law enforcement.” -Taylor, former Trump's DHS Chief of Staff youtu.be/KWJtwMQzGs0?...

This is what Capitol Police expected him to do on Jan 6. He didn’t.

For anyone who doesn’t live in Los Angeles or understand the geography of the city, the area is actually quite small where police are currently rioting.

🚨🚨 "In today's #holdingallthecards", A Ukrainian drone attack struck the JSC VNIIR-Progress facility in the Russian city of Cheboksary in the Chuvashia Republic, causing explosions and massive fires, Russian news channels reported in the early hours of today. 🧵 kyivindependent.com/drone-attack...

Reform are essentially copying Trump. So if you want to know what a Reform government would be like, look at the US today.
