Today I was driving to the store while listening to the excellent audio book “Fairy tale” by @stephenking.bsky.social when the following sentence was spoken and it gutted me: “Good people shine brighter in dark times.” The world feels heavy but I believe there are still many good people out there.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Yesterday, Jack Smith was able to tell the American people what he found from his extensive investigation: that Donald Trump committed criminal acts by trying to overturn the 2020 election.

Leading up to and on January 6th, Trump attempted to end our democracy.

I know that the process of disentangling yourself from the military machine is far more complex than a single post can cover, but also---intimidating your neighbors & running cover for paramilitary fucks isn't what you signed up for? Well,...

Reminder, Oregon Congresswoman Maxine Dexter is an actual medical doctor. When she talks about anything healthcare related, listen.
The same week as the anniversary of Roe v Wade—which Trump gutted—Republicans are pandering to their most extreme anti-abortion factions, stripping resources from families in need to bankroll so-called crisis pregnancy centers that are not even required to have medical professionals on staff.

Jack Smith: "My fear is that we have seen the rule of law function in our country for so long that many of us have come to take it for granted. The rule of law is not self-executing. It depends on our collective commitment to apply it."

America keeps talking about Greenland like it gets to CHOOSE what happens to a sovereign country. That is not the behavior of a good and noble nation.

Oh.
Last year a whistleblower said DOGE had illegally accessed a Social Security database. SSA now acknowledges it's true—& that DOGE employees had secret agreement w/ unidentified political advocacy group to use SocSec data to help overturn election results. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

They're coming for him on his "heated rhetoric", while the DOJ is corruptly investigating him and his city is under siege and harassment.

Do we see how twisted this is?
BRENNAN: You said 'occupying force.' Don't you think that's a bit much?

FREY: When you have 3,000 ICE agents and CBP come to your city, when you've got this supposed threat of 1,500 military coming to your city, that's very much what it feels like

No. We don’t need to “modify ICE training.” We need to close DHS. Dismantle it. It’s an outdated expensive bureaucracy that’s been usurped by violent white supremacists. Shut it down.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

ICE was deployed to Minneapolis to create chaos and confrontation - not to protect anyone or enforce the law.

ICE should leave Minneapolis. Period. Stop.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Trump threatens to use the Insurrection Act, allowing him to deploy troops, to 'put an end' to protests in Minneapolis.

This is a big no-no in armed combat.

It’s like dressing up as a doctor or a nurse and then shooting someone.

If this is proven accurate, it’s 100% a war crime.
Breaking NYT:

The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.

The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.

That is a war crime called "perfidy."
