"go to TikTok. See for yourself."

Pop Base tweets: "Kim Kardashian said on ‘The Kardashians’ that she believes the moon landing was fake:

“They’re gonna say I’m crazy no matter what, but like, go to TikTok. See for yourself. […] There’s no gravity on the moon. Why is the flag blowing? The shoes that they have in the museum that they wore on the moon is a different print in the photos. Why are there no stars?”"

What they've done is open the door for his unfettered extradition to the United States. Now that they no longer poison or chop off the heads of relatives who become an annoyance, that's really as much as they can do (on that side of the pond).

Is that right? They excluded Dems from the Senate hearing on those military strikes of alleged drug boats? Why? What did that accomplish other than to make those military actions all the more questionable? It certainly doesn't add to their legitimacy.
Don't expect anything to make sense anymore.

I would not play poker with anyone who lies like that.

A snapshot of articles about a few of the Americans wrongly arrested by ICE across the country. To date 170 cases are confirmed but the actual number is suspected to be much higher as some of those wrongly arrested have been deported before ICE confirmed their American citizenship.

Kristi Noem: "No American citizens have been arrested or detained. We focus on those who are here illegally. And anything you would hear or report that would be different than that is simply not true and false reporting."

If you have a RING door system, ICE has the right to request that footage and use it against you or your neighbors.

RING is partnering with the Gestapo.

Remember a time back when if a masked man tear gassed + attacked children trick or treating they would be lucky if they lived until their trial; but unlucky in that the inmates in prison would exact their own extrajudicial punishment.
Not so long ago on a planet not so far away.

I just remembered those Christian fundamentalists who decry Halloween as an anti-Christian pagan rite are also the folks behind Project 2025.
So I'm guessing next they're going to attack all secular 'anti-Christian' Christmas celebrations + decorations via ICE.

Pritzker: "Imagine it. Children who woke up that morning, expectant with joy & excitement to put on their costumes & celebrate with their neighbors in what they thought was a safe place at their homes. Armed, masked agents, terrorizing innocent people, especially children, is unconscionable."

Wow! It’s not even close. Food banks can’t keep up with the need…

Question: “How long is this sustainable.”

Food bank director: “It’s not… for every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There’s no way we can meet that gap.”

When they ask you why
you are still taking precautions
show them the research
that has found
“Covid and Flu
Can Triple Your Risk
of Heart Attack,”
and after they’ve read it
ask them why
they still aren’t taking precautions.

Part of me appreciates every time a really really rich person reminds us they have no mental or intellectual superiority over the rest of us. Especially when they show us how dysfunctional + downright stupid they are.

Eric Deggans @edeggans.bsky.social · 2d

I think there is nothing which encapsulates the brain rot hobbling America than news that a celebrity as wealthy, successful and powerful as Kim Kardashian somehow didn't get the memo that humans actually have landed on the moon several times. Sigh. https://loom.ly/Z26XD1o

Those using facial recognition refuse to acknowledge it just doesn't work for people of color. Who disproportionately are who they use it on. It harkens back to an era when they measured suspects' skulls.

Jared @jaredmcclain.bsky.social · 3d

A witness in our case had ICE reject all her documents after using facial rec on her.

For her, tho, it seemed like nothing could make them accept that she has a right to be here.

Either way, a gov policy of not trusting gov-issued docs is going to violate lots of people's rights.
