The Hill sacrificed a Black journalist so Truth Social wouldn’t sue them

Donate to any of the campaign links in our Linktree. We need our community now 🍉❤️🙏🏼" linktr.ee/thesameerpro...

what a ghoul

Just gonna keep sharing these.

Cuomo is a coward who will only appear at forums when he is standing alone by himself and other candidates are unable to question his incredibly bad record and lack of ethics or competence. He literally got planners to change the forum for him. www.politico.com/newsletters/...

That was, as I have been pointing out, the plan all along. It's an attack

Yes, the necessity of submission was baked into actual United States laws and punished by torture and death not too long ago. And Black women were considered property, as women, even after Emancipation. And the Church was often used to reinforce that while it was also used by many to survive it.

This is something that could definitely happen in real life. A system where heat is redistributed from one geographical location to another through an intricate underground air tunnel system. Based on what's going on with carbon markets...đź« 

The GoodReads giveaway for THE AI CON ends today! Enter by midnight Pacific on April 20! @emilymbender.bsky.social www.goodreads.com/giveaway/sho...

Now if we only added in , “Keep your eyes on who they target rather than trying to constantly turn this into a beat of authority for those reporting” We’d really get somewhere

please help if you can! even if the pain weren’t bad (dental pain is one of the worst kinds, imo) an infection that close to the brain is dangerous.

The Obama-appointed immigration judge in this case denies 75% of all asylum applications that come before her

The non-white friends of mine who have already left have gone to Brazil, Senegal, Ghana, Morocco, and Ireland. They are so-called “good immigrants” - high-earning, German-speaking - and they’ve had enough. Good luck to them, they’ve got careers to continue, lovers to pursue. More will follow.

The Trump incompetence defense reminds me of this essential Lili Loofbourow essay on “the male bumbler.” Abuser and harassment patterns lie at the heart of American conservative practices. theweek.com/articles/737...

Another obvious point that can’t be overstated: all of this is happening in the ongoing wake (see Christina Sharpe) of the centuries long legacy of transatlantic slavery, the largest forced mass displacement and imprisonment of human beings in the history of the planet.

““I hear all these stories, all these articles, all the Trump voters, they regret what they did back in 2024. I’m here to tell you, uh-uh. Very few of them regret what they did back in 2024,” Enten said on Wednesday.”

If you wonder why Black directors very often have spectacular debuts or singular projects and you never really see them again here you go.

fun historical fact: among the core political forces in the development of mass incarceration was the "Victims' Rights Movement". Its first major legislative national legislative victory was under President Reagan. The prison population doubled under his administration.

Been telling colleagues that the leaders most equipped to deal with this Trump administration are the same ones who had moral clarity about Gaza. It's because they understood how these polices are interconnected. Van Hollen has been and is one of those people.

Worth being aware, if you aren't already, of the 100-mile border zone loophole that allows that federal government to stop and interrogate anyone, without probable cause. www.aclu.org/know-your-ri...

Ok this is fucked. The DOJ is moving to drop the case against the “MS-13 leader” they arrested in my town. They want to drop the case because that will allow them to immediately put him into deportation proceedings and send him to El Salvador www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

I wouls caution against this momentumist thinking. Political moods are usually very oppositional at the beginning of a fascist dictatorship, but like COVID people get exhausted with being upset and just kind of go about their lives

Mike Benz in 2018: “At the same time, I fully and completely recognize the JQ a very real and very serious issue. I spent many years in the armpit of Corporate America's diversity industry and can tell you point blank, White demographic genocide really *is* largely on account of Jewish influence.”

TPM’s @hunterw.bsky.social makes a convincing case - citing experts - that we should be referring to CECOT as a “concentration camp,” “penal colony,” or “permanent prison camp.” Based on its features (no due process, indefinite detention) he says: “President Trump is sending people to the camps.”

I'm sharing this on behalf of my friend mohamed, who keeps getting his account deleted. please support by sharing and/or donating 🙏🏾❤️ he's so close to $9k. can we reach that today?

Here's Palantir's Louis Mosley, grandson of Britain's most famous fascist leader, talking about the importance of AI, if you aren't convinced yet that this is one big co-ordinated push towards the destruction of everything good in life. www.politicshome.com/news/article...

the US Department of Justice has won its antitrust case against Google, which accused the company of operating a monopoly in the ad tech industry. This is the 2nd time in a year that a federal court has ruled Google acted illegally to maintain a monopoly www.theverge.com/news/650665/...

There is ripe comparative historical work to be done in the stability of gender, the rise of transphobia, and state formation. Unfortunately all the US trans scholars are a bit preoccupied right now

the colonizers are really up in a tizzy today about their trash food, huh?

I went to an event packed with 100s of companies looking to contract with border enforcement and the Trump administration as they ramp up detentions and deportations. The main event sponsor is running the Guantanamo Bay Migrant Operations Center — they handed out tote bags. Here’s everything I saw.
