Great protest song‼️

Well, I failed the academy, the cops weren't havin' me
The Army didn't sound that fun
So I found me a paramilitary operation
That was keen to hand me a gun

There's a sign-on bonus of 50 grand
They're in need of you, needin' to feel like a man

Undecided voter: “How can someone like you convince me that my vote matters”

James Talarico: “They wouldn't be trying so hard to stop you from voting if your vote didn't matter — Texas is one of the hardest places to vote in the entire country. That is by design”

ICE agents pepper-spray a protester from the comfort of their vehicle, then get out and spray them again, get in the vehicle, get back out and empty their canisters in their face. Domestic terrorism.

ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground.

Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse.

Drove him 7 miles away before releasing him alone into Minnesota snow storm—told him to "walk home" in freezing weather advisory.

"A small team versus the federal govt"

The 8-person Carolina Migrant Network trained ~700 “verifiers" in a week-and-a-half. In 5 days, 6 am–9 pm, they fielded 1,100 calls, verified agents’ locations, posted whereabouts, and connected people with lawyers.

With little help from state and local govt.
To many, the staff at Carolina Migrant Network are heroes. Their alerts warned people where Border Patrol was during Operation Charlotte’s Web.

But the small team said they don’t feel heroic. They just tried their hardest:

To many in the Charlotte area, the alerts they sent out were a lifeline. But they said they don’t feel like heroes.

The Dems are far from perfect, but the vast majority of them seem to have the best interests of their constituents at heart, and they deserve support in an imperfect system. This cannot be said of the scum in the Rep party.

Never forget, car dependency isn’t freedom.

Some might ask “what’s more free than cars?”

Choices.

Choices are more free than car dependency.

It’s not a hard concept.

I’m not pitting cars against any other single mode of transport.

I’m rejecting design that creates dependency on just one mode.

"...an important step towards our common goal to create a more favourable business environment..."

In support of measures that destroy the ACTUAL ENVIRONMENT we're dependent on as a species.

To clarify, it is so hard to give these diseases to kids this age with any food that’s readily available in this country, and you’d really have to go out of your way, and these are very slow-to-develop, painful conditions that cause overt, outward signs of sickness and suffering for quite some time…
A 5-month-old baby died, & 3 surviving children, ages 2, 4, & 5, had to be hospitalized with rickets, osteopenia, vitamin D deficiency, & significant developmental delays bc their parents put them on “alkaline diets.”

Anyone saying alkalization has health benefits is a murderous liar & a charlatan.

Best guess estimations are now upwards of 2 million jobs lost by years end.

Billionaires continue to use AI & buyback tactics to keep theirs stocks up till the bottom drops out. With AI infrastructure being such a huge scam that is holding up 60% of the S&P 500....

Things are falling apart...

This whole so-called “parents rights” movement the right has taken up and the left is supposed to kowtow to for votes is so obviously anti-child it really bothers me to see it presented as anything other than justification for abusive “parenting” and disregard for actual science on child development

The U.S. is mirroring a pattern that has happened in authoritarian regimes around the world. When a government erects barriers to reproductive care, it doesn’t just cause death and suffering for women and their families. Such policies are often a first step in the gradual decline of democracies.

So on top of the tariffs that are already imposed on U.S. consumers, the Felon-in-Chief and his maladministration is going to increase either our taxes or our debt load to save farmers (mostly huge corporate farms; not even the small operators!) from the crash of their markets that the F-i-C caused.
