If you don't have a bio, if you mention God or religion, if you're selling ANYTHING, don't bother following me because I'll block you...like the 16 accounts every day I block, some of which were also reported...I don't have the time or interest in any of that shit

Everything he says is a lie, he shouldn't be in charge of an outhouse, let alone the White House😡😡😡

Everything he touches dies. The guy is a liar - a festering cancer on this earth.

Nothing is sacred under his watch.

Quote on 7/31/2025 from Trump:

"I won't interfere with the current building. It won't be. It'll be near it but not touching it and pays total respect to the existing building, which I'm the biggest fan of. It's my favorite. It's my favorite place. I love it.”

Katie Lam on #Peston last night: ‘Britain wasn’t built in migration, it was built by British people’. All credit to her for ticking 4 boxes in one sentence because that was absurd, racist, fascist and despicable all at the same time.

Gentle reminder that should a general strike happen, it’s crucial to plan and establish robust networks of community care.

There will be people, especially within the disability community, who can’t participate.

Who have needs that must be met.

Let’s make sure we figure out how to include them!

Whoa. Chicago mayor calls for a general strike; now we're talking

Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike

It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

This is the best political news I’ve seen in a very long time — so please pass it on👇

Each state can limit Citizens United in their own state & they don’t have to wait for other states to do it.

⚠️ #Europe

🇪🇸 An unidentified #drone was spotted over #Spain for the first time — prompting the temporary closure of the airport on the island of #Mallorca.

Around ten flights bound for Palma de Mallorca had to be diverted to other airports, including Barcelona and Valencia.

George Santos is a criminal.

But he voted GOP so he’s pardoned. Media interviews him. Normalizes lawlessness

We are an ignorance & loyalty based government. My disgust at the first 10 months of the admin is hard to define

No self-respecting real “conservative” would tolerate this. Where are they?

We kept commenting about what might happen if ICE showed up at any of these protests...there probably wouldn't have been good visuals, which must be their reason for the invisibility act, couldn't cos play tough guys in a crowd of joyous protesters

Rob Reiner Fan @rob-reiner-fan.bsky.social · 1d

So where was ICE yesterday?

If there are lots of people around, you won't see them. Like cockroaches who scatter from light. They prefer to stuff people into vans with as few eyeballs around as possible.

Russians started a human safari in Pokrovsk too. Videos are just civilians getting slaughtered under the surveillance of a drone. This will obviously not make it to headlines but please don’t let russians kill in silence

In no world, anywhere.
In this world, however, we can call him a complete liar, because that's what he has proven himself to be over and over and over again, he's the antithesis of a decent religious man, which he stupidly claims to be

In what world, is this guy a Christian?

In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.

Jonathan M. Katz @katz.theracket.news · 2d

Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.

This thread is vitally important if you want to understand how this criminal administration is murdering innocent people in the Caribbean...Columbia has every right to be furious, instead of coming to the aid of a disabled vessel, U.S. just blew it up and lied about it
