May this coward Ice Agent be found and punished severely.....KARMA has you on her list!
This video filmed by Ben Luhmann shows the moment a federal agent sprayed chemical irritants directly into a man's face in south Minneapolis.

Three agents already had the man pinned to the ground when a fourth agent walked up and sprayed the irritants.

One of my fave political stories ever: when Maine’s GOP then-Gov LePage thought that not signing bills by deadline meant they’d die.

So he ignored all these Dem bills, thinking it’d kill them.

But in Maine, if Gov just does nothing (rather than veto), a bill becomes law.

So they all became law.

If your representative is voting to cut health care while giving tax breaks to billionaires, they should at least be willing to stand in front of you and explain why.

Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "

russia’s ministry of education launched a cartoon for school kids about SVOlodik and NATOlik.
SVOlodik (from “special military operation”) is the “good” soldier.
NATOlik is the evil NATO one.
Propaganda starts early when you’re trying to raise the next generation of war criminals.

In Kherson situation is devastating.
The city is near the frontline and half of it is still in occupation. With little possibility to build a strong and stable Air Protection system in these conditions, everything is under attack.
Food supply, homes, transport, people.🔽
I don't think people know how common this is. It's SO common there's an entire Wikipedia article just for civilians being hunted with drones in this one city. And there's a documentary about it called Kherson: Human Safari, directed by @zarinazabrisky.bsky.social

So yeah.
More than ever: preserve the documents, books, screenshots. Whatever that can be a physical proof of the history. Get in touch with people who hold a first-hand experience.

I thought russia wanted to erase Ukraine. Now I see it is russia+America want to earse everyone?🔽
