We see what they’re doing. They’re baiting us, trying to provoke violence to justify a crackdown. Don’t give them the footage they want. Every broken window becomes propaganda in their hands. Stay sharp. Stay united. We’re here to fight for justice, not feed their narrative.

This is unusual trading by a politician. Marjorie Taylor Greene bought Palantir, $PLTR, on April 8th. On April 17th, Palantir, $PLTR, was awarded a government contract with ICE to develop ImmigrationOs. She sits on the Committee of Homeland Security Palantir is up nearly 50% since.

“For the record, prejudices can kill and suspicion can destroy, and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all its own- for the children and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is that these things cannot be confined to The Twilight Zone.” - Rod Serling

The proposed Trump budget is brutal, unless you’re the military or Homeland Security. Here’s what gets cut: - State Department: -84% - National Science Foundation: -56% - EPA: -54% - HUD (housing): -44% - Labor: -35% - Interior: -30% - Health & Human Services: -26% - NASA: -24% - Education: -15%

Cal-Maine, the biggest egg producer, has been accused of using bird flu as cover to jack up prices and triple its profits from a year ago. It also received $22M in federal aid. While you're getting gouged at the grocery store, your tax dollars are subsidizing corporate greed.

We had a conversation with Sec of State Steve Simon about HR 22 - The SAVE Act. This voter suppression bill passed the House and is now in the Senate. This is a disastrous bill for Minnesotans (and all voters). Call our Senators and urge them to vote NO. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYbz...

Choose unrelenting hope. Revolutionary change, even in the face of unrelenting oppression, is not only possible, it is inevitable. Recognize the potential for progress through collective action, resilience and the belief in humanity's capacity to create a better future.

The Massachusetts governor, the city, and the university needs to drop everything to locate and free this girl and make sure this doesn't happen again. This is DEFCON-1. If they do this to someone who wrote an op-ed in a college newspaper, they will do this to anyone they don't like.

Some breaking news in my latest. Others pointed out that Witkoff appeared to be in Moscow when he joined the Houthi PC Group chat. Sky News has a detailed story on his timeline in Moscow. I ran that against the timeline from the Atlantic article. Witkoff was waiting for Putin when he was added.(1/2)
