What women on the left already knew before the files came out is that men can imagine a world of class consciousness (Chomsky), a universe more expansive than ever before known (Hawking), a world where you can live forever (Attia) but not a world where women are fully human.

🚨 Epstein survivors release this powerful PSA in advance of the Super Bowl demanding answers from the Justice Department. This is the Super Bowl ad every American should see. Spread it everywhere.

Lawyers can't reach clients in ICE detention. I've heard it anecdotally, but scale of issue is horrifying.

Bloomberg Law is a legal trade pub so many may miss this. Screenshot from their CA newsletter summarizes "bleak" situation for justice and rule of law.

You know who else was unjustly accused, arrested, and executed by the state under religious justification?

Jesus.

Read your Bibles, MAGA. Supporting someone as vile as Traitor Trump is religious hypocrisy at its worst.

Sorry, this is no longer true. Why is Trump still in power? Why is ICE able to murder people with no repercussions? Why is the liberal world order being destroyed with no effective resistance from Americans? Trump is the symptom. American society is diseased.
Dear World,

Please remember that it’s Donald Trump who is a psychotic lunatic, not the entire United States.

Please help us put this all back together when he’s gone.

What we are watching is a paramilitary force learning that they can kill with impunity, that the regime will smear the victim and defend them. Unless politicians and the legal system exerts accountability, it will not stop. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/past-the-b...

Pure evil playing out in the streets of Minnesota. This is horrendous
Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

If any serious Canadian policy-maker doesn't understand that American fascists will use their control of our information ecosystem and digital environment to spread disinformation and try to provoke division, they really need to step aside.

We are not currently prepared for the onslaught.

Similarly, the Minnesota general strike tomorrow has led to a cascade of supporting actions all over the country. May this snowball, to mix metaphors, continue to grow.

National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation.

Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

Every day you read something worse than you imagined possible occurring in the USA.
Rachel Maddow breaks down while reporting about “tender age ICE shelters for babies and toddlers in South Texas.”

I have no words.

look what they’re doing to my beautiful city. this is bovino’s massive armed convoy, rolling through the Wedge, one of the nicest, friendliest residential areas in Minneapolis, doing nothing but posturing, starting fights, and then deploying chemical weapons at a park many children play in

@davidwcochrane.bsky.social maybe I’ve missed something, but I don’t hear anyone talking about foreign interference from the US. They seem to me as bad as China and India. Remember many Americans funded the Convoy.
Otherwise, Great work!

I think it’s time for Canadian tv cable companies to remove Fox News from their basic subscriptions and for the federal government to only support Canadian owned newspapers in their support programme. The barbarians are at the gates.

If nothing else, pretty amazing Canadian PM Carney said the quiet part out loud today: international law has never been real and the ‘rules’ of the international order have never applied to the US and its allies.

This may indeed be the actual death of neoliberalism.

I’m the one in the brown hat.

What you might not see is the victim in the car. His feet are pointing out the open car door. An agent is sitting on one of his legs. He’s only wearing crocs.

Bystanders found his legal work visa in his abandoned car.

#AbolishICE
This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

Honourable @evansolomon.bsky.social,
X is unsafe for women. It promotes hate. You know this. Why is the Government of Canada continuing to use this abusive platform that's so clearly opposed to Canadian values – the values that you and our Prime Minister profess to protect? #BanX #BanGrok
Honourable @evansolomon.bsky.social - my question to you is why isn't the GoC considering banning X considering the harm that platform is doing and the obvious We-Don't-Give-A-Shit attitude of its owner?

Let's get this trending, people! #BanX #BanGrok
In 2024, I rose in Senate QP to ask why the Govt of Canada was still using X for official communications. Today, they are still there. What exactly will it take to break the spell?

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
