The owner of Twitter sends out 100 right wing propaganda tweets every single day and the algorithm is set up so that every single person on Twitter has to see every single one of these tweets. Now here’s another piece about Blue Sky’s ideological diversity problem.

I’m sorry but what in theeee fuck is that music?? No wonder they couldn’t keep in step lol Fun Fact™️: in addition to its four “Premier” bands (of which 3 are based in DC), the Army has THIRTY(!) other active duty bands. That parade should have been LOUSY with bands blasting Sousa marches at 150 dB

Governors Pritzker and Hochul should mobilize Army National Guard units now to protect Illinois and New York residents from hostile federal interference in state governance. If the WH tries to federalize them in response, that's fine, but there will now be significant complicating factors.

Two of the three states with the largest population of people in the U.S. illegally are the red states of Texas and Florida. Trump, notably, does not name their cities when calling on ICE to execute more aggressive immigration raids. He does, however, name LA, Chicago and New York.

If you're sending troops into cities for ideological and political reasons, that makes those cities occupied regions

This is, objectively, a lethal deployment of "less lethal" weapons. The directions for the use of these weapons expressly tell folks NOT to do this.

political press is doing a real disservice by basically not reporting the nuances of public opinion on deportations, and creating the appearance that most americans support the stephen miller-style gestapo tactics

Happy Father’s Day to my very own anchor man Dad. He was the news anchor in the 70s in central Nebraska, and he MC’d pageants and telethons. I’m going to see him later today, he’s 88 now and still doing great. ❤️

All I want to know is - is he completely pissed today? Is he wanting to fire people? Or does he think it was great?

Watched this clip and, yeah, not shocked at all. I know him, worked with him, and of course here he is doing this brave shit. He's such a good reporter. Real deal. An example of how you can both do the job and ~have values~. Also fucking guts, as is so evident here...

This reminds me of Estes Park. It’s gotten very busy in the summer. There is a large contingency of people who go there all the time (us included) and don’t consider themselves tourists and who bitch about all the tourists, but who are basically tourists themselves.

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

For non-veterans, that marching in step is generally aided by either someone outside the formation who is rhythmically chanting to help everyone time their footfalls, or by military marching music. Neither of which apparently seems to have been allowed for Trumps big-boy birthday.
