SCOOP: The State Department's new reorganization plan includes the opening of an "Office for Remigration," a term popularized by far right extremists and neo-Nazis in Europe. The office will coordinate directly with DHS "to advance the President’s immigration agenda."

My report:

State Department set to launch ‘Office of Remigration’

The concept of remigration has explicitly neo-Nazi roots and has been popularized in Europe.

Hey look, Israel broke the cease-fire, twice, in two different ways, within 24 hours - again.

NEW: Israel informed the UN it will permit only 300 aid trucks into Gaza daily, not the 600 mandated by the ceasefire it just signed.

Whenever I see men complain about the male loneliness crisis or unique emotional/psychological issues faced by men, it’s very clear that they just don’t see women as full people capable of experiencing the exact same emotions they do

I like how many of us working class Tulsans share these experiences. Both my partners and I could talk about how we served these same types of people in different jobs/roles. Thanks for sharing!

Right?!?! 🐸🐸🐸

Mollie Tindle @mollietindle.bsky.social · 18h

Please remember that a ceasefire does not mean that the terrors of war, the hazards of violent occupation, & the trauma of genocide have evaporated for Palestinians in Gaza.

Life on the ground is much the same as before the ceasefire, so our friends still need help to survive, rebuild, & thrive!🕊️

The whites are literally arguing it's literally *unconstitutional* if they're not OVERREPRESNTED in Congress.

Just so everyone is clear, the main issue in the Supreme Court voting rights case tomorrow is whether it's racist against white people to enforce the Voting Rights Act.

I'm dead serious. We live in incredibly stupid times.

For about three years now, I've been ranting to anyone who will listen that the Equal Protection Clause is being rewritten so that it protects white people from so-called anti-white discrimination.

That's what's happening here.

Again, the argument is that the Voting Rights Act violates the Constitution (14th and 15th Amendments) because you have to take race into account in order to draw a map that has a second majority Black district and taking race into account violates the Constitution.

It's an ouroboros of stupidity.

I remember at the time ranting on my podcast that of course you have to take race into account in order to draw racially fair maps.

But I guess we're gonna be stupid and say SFFA v. Harvard eliminated race consciousness across the board and so drawing a non-racist map is in and of itself racist.

There was an identical case out of Alabama in 2023. Alabama drew a second majority Black district. Alito was all chin strokey like, isn't it bad to take race into account here?

As in it's bad to be race-conscious in order to make sure Black people aren't underrepresented.

Hey, it’s Tulsa Peeps!! 💙

Tulsa has not been hit like Chicago or Portland, but Tulsans like to help!

Follow Tulsa Latinos Unidos (they are mostly on IG) for information on how to help our immigrant neighbors in the Tulsa area! They do a lot in east Tulsa where many folks live. Also DAOK!

50501: The People’s Movement ❌👑 @50501movement.bsky.social · 1d

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.

@mehdirhasan.bsky.social Thank you for all you do to make the world a better place. If you can, please share Amal's posts as she is fundraising to build a future for her children now that they have survived the Gaza genocide. She needs a great deal of financial support to rebuild. Thank you.
