The Trump regime is deliberately deploying ICE agents at immigration hearings so they can more easily detain migrants. Armed, masked men abducting people from courthouses —and arresting those who ask why — is the stuff fascism is made of.

Why should we believe these men are actually ICE agents and not J6 criminals, thugs, or human traffickers? I want to hear directly from immigrants and citizens who were taken by people like this, hauled off in unmarked cars by masked men with no ID…

70,000 more Britons to lose disability benefits than originally expected. Estimates up from 370,000 to 440,000, could lose £4,500 a year each. How many die? Govt averse to taxing corporations and the rich. Tell your MP to oppose cuts. 1% have more wealth than 70% of the population combined.

Democide Doctors at Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) hospitals nationwide could refuse to treat unmarried veterans and Democrats under guidelines imposed by Donald Trump. The rules also apply to psychologists, dentists and a host of other occupation. When hatred becomes the basis of politics.

Govt officials brace for up to 50 Labour MPs rebelling against welfare bill, cut disability benefits. You can help. Meet your MP. Tell him/her to vote against the cut. Poor hit whilst no questions asked about corporate welfare.

LOOK AT THIS SHIT: Marines and ICE team up in a show of force, turning a community swap meet into a surveillance operation. Witnesses say people were cornered, forced to identify themselves, and had their photos taken — without suspicion or a warrant. This is a police state.

The Iraq playbook is back & the media won’t question it. Iran has no nuclear weapons. Israel — on trial for genocide — does. Iran signed the NPT & allows IAEA inspections. Israel hasn’t — & its leaders face ICC arrest warrants. Beware of politicians beating the drums of war.

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality. Donald Trump followed the authoritarian playbook this week. What can we do about it? On today's Coffee Klatch, we get some insight from Ezra Levin of Indivisible. https://youtu.be/8fOjNjPOEIU

Grenfell fire was caused by corporate greed; calls for unlimited fines, ban on public contracts. 72 people died, no one prosecuted. Corporations responsible for corruption, bribery, tax dodges, sewage dumping, energy price rip-offs. We can have strong democracy or corporations, not both.

To those who still somehow say you’re overreacting to say we are far past the point of historic crisis, go back to summer 2024 and say that in less than a year the president of the United States would be deploying the literal Marines on American soil to deal with and intimidate his political enemies

BREAKING: Marines — soldiers trained to kill — roll up on a Black man in LA for the high crime of minding his own business. Alone. Unarmed. Quiet. They think you’re the real threat. Our military is turning its weapons inward.

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

I challenged the govt on two fatal flaws in the Planning & Infrastructure Bill: it contains no social housing target, so it won’t deliver the affordable homes communities desperately need, and it weakens nature protections, further enriching big property developers at the environment's expense.

Just voted against the government's Planning and Infrastructure Bill after they rejected our efforts to bring in measures to build social housing. Sadly, this Bill is a charter for greed, giving developers carte blanche to line their pockets building luxury homes for the rich that most can't afford
