And you, governor, should stop providing state cops to police protesters for ICE at Broadview.

Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · 11h

ICE is recklessly throwing tear gas into our neighborhoods and busy streets, including near children at school and CPD officers.

The Trump Administration must stop their deployment of dangerous chemical weapons into the air of peaceful American communities.

Another reminder that this is a violation of the consent decree and a court order. They do not care.

UPDATE — Multiple witness videos today show an older white federal agent straddling a young Black man on the ground outside of a Walgreens on Chicago’s Southeast Side.

This is a developing story.

Thousands of posts from a private Young Republican Telegram chat reveal a culture of casual racism/antisemitism, rape jokes and celebration of Hitler/Nazism.

Some of the ringleaders are below: We live in a world where 4chan types now occupy positions of real power.

at this point it would be interesting journalism if someone could locate a Young Republican groupchat that was not full of overt Nazis

If your first thought as a reporter when racing to the scene where an invading fed paramilitary of murderous freaks are blanketing yet another neighborhood in chemical weapons after kidnapping people is to count how many objects are thrown at them, just quit. Just quit

🔥 COUNTRY SINGER @bryanandrewsmusic.bsky.social : "You don't get to call yourself a Christian and laugh when families are torn apart — and think it's okay that the highest court in the land just gave a green light to ICE agents to target people because they’re brown or speaking Spanish.”

⚠️ Warning: these back-to-back scenes are hard to watch unless you’ve got a depraved heart.

These are thugs, not officers with any real training. We keep seeing it again and again, and at this point, it’s clearly the op.

STOP ASSUMING IT IS A FLAW

I know everyone hates context especially when it means they may have to admit Black and Indigenous people had points

But the refusal to deal with guardrails is an INTENTIONAL CHOICE.. that they have made for YEARS

New York Times Opinion @nytopinion.nytimes.com · 14d

Mark Zuckerberg has a vision for how A.I. could be used in Meta's universe.

But the actor and filmmaker Joseph Gordon-Levitt is here to point out a flaw in the technology: an apparent lack of guardrails around how the company's chatbot interacts with underage users. nyti.ms/3ILwCNo

Fuck Gavin.

He has vetoed so many Pro-Trans bills.

Erin Reed @erininthemorning.com · 17h

1. Yesterday, the press gave Gavin Newsom favorable coverage for signing pro-LGBTQ+ bills.

Little noticed, however, was that he vetoed one of the most important ones: a bill allowing trans people 12 month HRT stockpiles, protecting them from federal threats.

Gavin Newsom Vetoes Important HRT Stockpiling Bill For Trans Californians, Signs Other Pro-LGBTQ+ Bills

The bill would have allowed transgender people to maintain a safe supply of medication in the era of government crackdowns on care.

All Eyes on the West Bank

Zionists are now shifting the occupation forces from Gaza to the West Bank, helping settlers terriorizing the Palestinian people

Follow my second account "Tracking The Settlers" where I upload everything from the West Bank 🇵🇸👇

🚨 Tracking The Settlers @settlertrack.bsky.social · 16h

#REPORT | Israeli settlers attacked the house of Palestinian human rights defender Issa Amro - breaking the lock, hurling stones and damaging a CCTV camera. Soldiers were present, and instead of holding the settlers accountable, they tried to arrest Issa and confiscated his phone.
