It does not matter at all what Mahmoud Khalil has said. The government does not get to black bag a legal permanent resident for their speech. We have a 1st Amendment right to free speech that forbids the government from punishing people for it. That's a solid red line that should never be crossed.

As Israel induced famine spreads across #Gaza, people scury to get their hands on whatsoever supplies they can. They can't believe the world will watch them starve - again. #Genocide #freepalestine #palestine #Israel #boycottisrael #bds #GenocidalState #Children #SaveTheChildren #SaveOurChildren

everyone in the media, on twitch, online, in the Democratic party, and of course the Republicans, who called (and call) the anti-genocide campus protests "pro Hamas terrorist rallies" has a dark stain on their heart and blood on their hands

🥴

This is what the terrorist state did last year. History matters. #Genocide #freepalestine #palestine #gaza #Israel #boycottisrael #bds #GenocidalState #Children #SaveTheChildren #SaveOurChildren

With Republicans going after Medicare and Medicaid it makes me realize how much of a better political footing Democrats would have if we had universal healthcare because it’s easy to fuck around with numbers and hide things as opposed to “everyone has healthcare vs not everyone has healthcare”

Too bad Uvalde Elementary didn’t sell Teslas.

Mahmoud Khalil should be at home with his pregnant wife. Instead, he's been illegally abducted & had his constitutional right to free speech & due process stripped. We're demanding his immediate release and we cannot allow this abuse of power to go unchecked. #FreeMahmoudKhalil

american society has been at “TV Interstitial from ROBOCOP” for a while but “president does a car commercial on the white house lawn” is really pushin it

Only 14 House Democrats signed this letter calling for the release of Mahmoud Khalil

NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more. The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law. No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.

You are a pathetic and disgusting worm @chuckschumer.com

I think it’s really weird to not support palestine throughout the genocide and then suddenly get on the news and start saying you care about someone who is essentially a political prisoner for speaking out about palestine. that’s the disconnect for me.

Every day it doesn't happen is so boring

Reminder: taxing the ultra-wealthy is fiscally responsible.

bluesky signup requirements have relaxed to the point at which a lot of people on here have never committed arson. you used to need either two convictions or eight charges. in rare cases someone in the arson community could vouch for you, but loopholes were rare. now it's essentially a free-for-all

normalize straying beyond the edge of the wood. normalize the song of quiet darkness that whispers down the shadowed path

scientists and scholars estimate we are only a decade away from learning all the lyrics to "black" by pearl jam

governments should spend money, literally all their fucking money. on taking care of the people from whom they got the money. on building cool shit for the people from whom they got the money to use, like highways and public works. this is real easy how can these people be so bad at this

Raul Julia loved what art could be whether it was highbrow or cheesy genre fare and poured himself into it. You know that cheesy Overdrawn at the Memory Bank movie from MST3K? He wasn’t a young struggling actor, his local PBS station made that and he loved Public Television and wanted to be in it!

2020: attacks on “BLM” 2022: attacks on “CRT” 2024: attacks on “woke” 2025: attacks on “DEI” BLACK. THEY MEAN BLACK.

Saturday storm boys.

if you think the problem with modern society is that people are too nice, go fuck yourself im going to be even nicer to spite your dumb ass

Favorite part of Star Wars was when Luke Skywalker took off his jacket and defeated Palpatine with his T-Shirt that said “Resist”

Americans are going bankrupt if they get sick or injured and these elected officials are giving themselves a pat on the back. What the HELL are you clapping for? People are still struggling and it’s getting worse.

Universal healthcare would make America great. Universal childcare would make America great. Debt-free college would make America great. Universal housing would make America great. A $25 minimum wage would make America great.

The “Gold Card” is dumb as hell.

gordon ramsey: what are you making with the ingredients you grabbed me: i got everything i need for a delicious stock i’m making Gnome soup gordon: excuse me young man? are you joking right now? me: (pulls screaming gnome out of my apron pocket) gordon: Gnome soup…fuck me

can't believe it's 2025 and i'm stressed about tariffs and measles, like am i a character in an american girl book

i still can’t get over a bunch of rightwingers saying “i can’t wait to make america healthy again by going to steak and shake by eating french fries fried in tallow 🙂” in complete sincerity

No Other Land has won this year's Oscar for best documentary. This is a big deal. Despite being worthy of an Oscar, the film has NOT been able to find distribution in the US because it's about the forced displacement of Palestinians from their homes by Israel.

this @jpbrammer.bsky.social blog on emilia perez is the funniest thing i’ve read in a while open.substack.com/pub/johnpaul...

Thinking about the boomer I talked to today who has stopped donating to the Democratic Party after decades of boosting them because “they’re a nest of spineless snakes who only know how to get more money from losing than winning and they’re cozying up to traitors”. This would uh…not reel him back in

Western media never mentions not once about the Palestinian hostages! That’s because Israel controls America!! #Genocide #freepalestine #palestine #gaza #Israel #boycottisrael #bds #GenocidalState #Children #SaveTheChildren #SaveOurChildren

If trickle down economics was sound economics, Americans would be thriving right now. It’s. Not. Trickling. Down. It’s been nearly FIFTY years.

Nice to see a professional podcaster tapped for as big of a televised hosting role as the Oscars.

Congo will be free 🇨🇩 Sudan will be free 🇸🇩 Palestine will be free 🇵🇸 Haiti will be free 🇭🇹 Every oppressed people will be free, from right here in America and all over the world.

A meaningful powerful speech a most needed speech.
