This whole thing is incredible, but look how his hand is shaking when he points at the guys who are being hassled. He's scared, he's angry, he's pounding with adrenaline, but he's maintaining control of himself and not backing down. He's taking a stand, whatever the cost.

No longer a full democracy. The US has already become a (competitive) authoritarian system. And it’s getting worse. The receipts from @donmoyn.bsky.social donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-author...

It's hard to take that because of a 1.5 percent margin in one election, our country will now commit suicide -- and take a good chunk of the rest of the world down with it.

100% crisis actors and staged photo-op. He was in more danger eating a big mac.

In a political moment defined by cowardice, Zohran Kwame Mamdani is standing his ground, he’s gaining momentum, & he’s showing us how to win by unapologetically fighting for the working class.

Protesters are back this morning outside 55 E Monroe in Chicago, blocking the garage entrance & exits used by ICE to access immigration court.

For weeks now, agents have been arresting immigrants showing up for their hearings.

Last week, protesters’ presence shut down court twice.

As I've heard others say, it's amazing how many resources the US government will commit to terrorize its own people while denying them food, shelter or healthcare.

Notice how while ICE arrests people without a warrant, invades homes without a warrant, & disappears people into death camps—NRA is silent. Know why? Because NRA was never about firearm protection—but about white supremacy protection.

As long as ICE targets mostly Black & brown people, NRA is happy

Reminder that Article 1, §8 of the US constitution gives congress, not the president, plenary authority to levy tariffs. Congress delegated this authority to the president and could take it back right now. They're all co-conspirators in the mass destruction of our country.

Excited to be attending ICPE 2025 this year in Toronto. Hopefully they'll still let me into wonderful Canada despite my American passport.

Really enjoying watching Kitz on Netflix. I also learned that the German word "geil" has a wide variety of meanings depending on the context.

I early-voted last week for Vice President Harris. If you're in the US, please vote.

I think he was far too emotional and it would have helped if he had smiled more

Thanks I hate it.

So it's pronounced blu-skee, (like husky or risky) right?
