Israeli tanks kill 59 people in Gaza crowd trying to get food aid, medics say reut.rs/4kJ6zUF

The “Appeal to Heaven” flag, a popular symbol for Christian nationalists that was waved by January 6 rioters, was raised over the Small Business Administration headquarters last week. www.wired.com/story/far-ri...

SCOOP: The "Appeal To Heaven" flag, a popular symbol for Christian nationalists that was waved by January 6 rioters, was raised over the Small Business Administration headquarters last week.

Iran: Weeks away from having nuclear weapons since 1995

From Israeli media: Prime Minister Netanyahu and US President Trump spoke and coordinated positions and moved in preparation for the US military's entry into the war. Trump: "We need to take responsibility for saving the world from evil."

How many more elected officials have to be arrested? How many more rights have to be ignored? How many more marines need to patrol the streets before Congress realizes the crisis we are in?

Damn. Got our hopes up.

The White House called a lid, meaning that Trump isn’t expected to be seen or heard from for the rest of the evening. Cool, cool. Not like the American people need to hear from POTUS while we’re tweeting our way into a war, or anything.

There’s always a tweet.

BREAKING: What you just witnessed was a state-sanctioned kidnapping. These people aren’t identifying themselves. Citizens can no longer distinguish between state authority & rogue violence. This is not a warning about what might come. We are not watching the start of something. We are living it.

Under what constitutional authority? Under what constitutional authority? I repeat, under what constitutional authority?

L.A. police pushed down a journalist helping an injured man and broke his camera

What a coincidence, this neo-Nazi had the same phrase written on his gun that the Secretary of Defense has tattooed on his arm.

We’re raising $1,500,000 for 10 AI-controlled air defense turrets that will protect Ukrainians from russia's terrorist attacks. Russia has launched over 45,000 strike drones at civilians since the start of the invasion. Help us hit the goal & save lives. #3E #StandWithUkraine

Mr. Antiwar President has us inches away from a Civil War at home and a nuclear war abroad in defense of an ally that is starting random hot regional wars to detract from its ongoing genocide. I’m sure all of this will just naturally cool off.

Rip their masks off.

Last night in Riverside, CA, what 6 months ago would’ve been on every new channel, was only on local news. A man drove his vehicle into protesters. At least one woman screamed that her sister had been ran over. /

Kinda wild that we all get to pay taxes to fund a civil war against us

Blue states need to stop paying federal taxes. Democrats need to start buying guns.

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.

Useful reminder that Israel is believed to have 90 nuclear weapons. Also, Israel is not party to the nuclear non proliferation treaty, and has not accepted IAEA safeguards on some of its principle nuclear activities. But yes, only Iran is the rogue state...

When I tell you Los Angeles is an occupied city/county, this is what I mean… Yesterday, ICE agents showed up to a regular Saturday swap meet with armed Marines and a military helicopter overhead, like it’s a fucking war zone.

Yesssssss… I love this 🙌🏼

Ben Shapiro getting all upset at the parade coverage as though he isn't used to taking part in activities where no one comes

This sign was popular at the protest today.

Andor is a documentary

Earlier, federal agents shot a protester in the eye. Vincent is an ER nurse and said he came to the protest at the ICE facility in South Portland after a shift. Other protesters called an ambulance for him, but he had to walk several blocks to meet it, due to the munitions still flying.

Please keep your eyes on Portland Oregon right now There's a riot declared near the ice facility in Portland and DHS agents have pulled lethal guns on protesters with live ammo at least four times the last half hour

So we can’t wear masks. But cops can.

SF protests rocked and were peaceful. However my travel companion and I were attacked from behind walking to my car and ended up in ER. Them with a concussion. Myself with contusions and bruised ribs. We didn't see the cowards.

The Seattle metro area is 700k and change. So that's roughly 1 in 10 ppl showing up to protest.

Peaceful protests all day until, right on cue, LAPD escalates with flash-bangs and tear gas so Trump can get his live “riot” visual for his live speech.
