Didn’t Trump refuse to attend the dignified transfer of four Army soldiers who died during a military training mission—just to attend a Saudi-backed golf dinner with his billionaire Saudi donor buddies? This parade isn’t about honoring the Army’s anniversary. It’s 100% about boosting Trump’s ego.

A lot of the complaints about Bluesky boil down to: It's not what Twitter was at its peak. And that demands two responses. 1. Peak Twitter took several years to build; so we're not comparing apples to apples. 2. The real question we should be asking is why Peak Twitter is no longer Peak Twitter.

No, no, no. As the political media often reminds us, the far right exists as a pure natural state of being and the rest of the universe must accommodate itself to their reality. Are they wrong? No, you are, and you need to change your ways. It's just basic science.

I held off on what I had planned to discuss in “The Week Ahead” tonight to try and give us some baselines for understanding what is happening in Los Angeles. And in the White House. There is a lot of territory to cover here, and it’s complicated, so bear with me. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

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)

Anyone saying that we can’t abolish ICE clearly doesn’t remember that it didn’t exist until 2003, when the DHS was established by legislation. Prior to that we had INS— the N standing for Naturalization, meaning helping immigrants along the path to citizenship. A society that doesn’t

I think Greta Thunberg is the best example of how there is no way of protesting that will satisfy the scolds. It'll either be called too aggressive or a self-serving publicity stunt.

But we did not have considerable influence there after Elon’s arrival. The kind of tweet that used to get a thousand RTs within an hour would go days with just a dozen. We were just shouting into the void there. I get why you might want that for us, but we found actual community over here.

Dozens of responses here that "well, that's not going to convince the racists." Jesus Fucking Christ. It's not about convincing the racists. It's about convincing all the people in the middle that the racists are lying about you. This isn't remotely hard at all.

what people seem to believe is that there is a large number of criminal, layabout immigrants who can be easily found and deported. they support doing so snd are dismayed by the deportation of otherwise law abiding people. the problem is that the criminal group is imaginary!

Whats happened in LA over the weekend is pathetic. Once again we see the commander in chief agitating and escalating shit. On another note, it doesn't seem like dems were "overreacting" when we said the fate of democracy depends on this election.

This is, of course, all bullshit. But that won't matter to the MAGA cult who still believe entire cities were burnt to the ground during the Black Lives Matter protests.

The “Black folk stay home” narrative being shoved across social media is coming from the Trump regime and affiliated MAGA networks. It’s a series of troll farms and collaborators working together to influence / manipulate US citizens away from protesting. It’s an operation.

He’s disappearing innocent people off of our streets and ordering the military onto our streets. He does not give a damn about the rule of law. He is the very tyrant our founding generation rose up against 249 yrs ago. It’s time for the American people to rise up again.
