If you're on strike today: it's a GREAT time to call paypros and really put the pressure on their call centers which might be lower than normal staff. Just saying 🥰

ICE prison contractors stand to make 11,000% profit on money they invested in the GOP.

They're profiteering from racism, terrorism, and cruelty.

Jesus fucking holy hell.

This is what you should get loud about. If you have any Republican representatives, call them now -and repeatedly. Do what you can to stop this from passing.

This is a nightmare.

If you see this, don't participate. It's a rigged study by Lisa Littman and unethical researcher J. Michael Bailey meant to undermine access to care. Spread the word.

TikTok is already being turned into a propaganda machine.

A lack of ability to see criticism can persuade users to think that means there’s (unanimous) support.

That, AND it’s collecting your data for whatever purpose it wants, & I bet at least a few of them you’d be horrified by.

Just delete it.

Washington- they’re trying the internet age restriction stuff here. Do you want to give up *your* privacy because someone else can’t properly parent *their* children? Comment, call, don’t let it pass!
Do you live in Washington State?

I need you to do two things:

1) Go here (app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary?...) & read HB 2112.
2) Go here (app.leg.wa.gov/pbc/bill/2112) & leave a comment urging your representatives to vote AGAINST the bill.

This is SERIOUS shit. Please!

BRENNAN: Tell me about the officer, Jonathan Ross

KRISTI NOEM: Don't say his name! I mean, for heaven's sake, we shouldn't have people continue to dox law enforcement

BRENNAN: His name is public

NOEM: I know, but that doesn't mean it should continue to be said

BTW this is why we laugh at the idea of calling police on ICE. these are peaceful people who opposed a nazi rally and MPD wants to shoot them with rubber bullets. Also why we dont trust Jacob Frey whatsoever.

People are just milling about for now. Hardly any traffic to begin with. MPD over the loudspeaker: "crowd control munitions may be used against you."

They're trying so hard to justify a murder. And every American should know: if they kill you, this is what they'll do to you.

They expect us to hold their hurt feelings as more pressing than our very lives. They’re not unclear about Ross killing Good. They’re trying to “but technically” their way into publicly saying she deserved to die like that.
Sorry, what? The federal “investigation” into ICE’s killing of an American is investigating the *victim*?

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."

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.
one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny
It occurs to me all the yelling at ICE in MPLS isn't merely funny. Getting made fun of like this is awful for morale. ICE is losing field officers faster than it can wave them through training, and a big part of it is how little of this these little weasels can take.
