if nearchus of elea has a million haters, then i am one of them. if he has ten haters, then i am one of them. if he has only one hater then that is me. if nearchus of elea has no haters, then that means i am no longer on earth. if the world loves nearchus of elea, then i am against the world.

ICE chokes woman—clenching his bare hands around her throat while 3 other kidnappers hold her.
Agent then takes his 2 thumbs & gouges both her eyes out—mutilating her face.
Woman lifted & tossed in back of unmarked car like bag of potatoes.
"She's a U.S. citizen!" yells witness.

ICE has only existed since 2003. A Bush-era creation, it is a militarized federal secret police that has been imbued with the Supreme Court with the unconstitutional power to ignore the fourth amendment.
Abolishing it and salting the earth where it grew is the moderate stance.

FOX: Where’s the protest against the regime that's killing people in the street right now?
Trent: They are doing those today. It’s called the ICE protests
FOX: Are they talking about Iran at the ICE protests?
Trent: No, I think they are talking about the regime that is shooting people in the face

wow — welcome to the resistance ashley st. clair?????
she didn’t say this at all, she answered my question about if she regrets past discrimination against trans people. not discriminating against trans people is “pedophilic trans grooming” to people like elon musk. absolute insanity

Good to see one of my senators identify the problem but surely a Senator can imagine another route to consequences for Musk than begging a different billionaire to enforce terms of service. If Musk's actions are criminal, all for his arrest. If these actions aren't criminal, outlaw them, legislator.
X’s Grok AI tool is being used to generate nonconsensual sexualized images of women and children. This is unacceptable. @wyden.senate.gov, @markey.senate.gov, and I are demanding that Apple and Google remove X and Grok from their app stores until Elon Musk addresses these heinous violations.
Senators urged Apple and Google to remove X and Grok from app stores over sexual deepfakes
“Turning a blind eye to X’s egregious behavior would make a mockery of your moderation
practices,” three Democratic senators wrote to Apple’s and Google’s CEOs.

NEW: GoFundMe strictly bans fundraisers for “the legal defense of financial and violent crimes,” yet is currently running one “to help pay for any legal services” for the ICE agent who killed Renee Nicole Good. Its conflict is not even the least bit contestable.
GoFundMe Ignores Own Rules by Hosting a Legal-Defense Fund for the ICE Agent Who Killed Renee Good
The fundraiser for the ICE agent in the Renee Good killing has stayed online in seeming breach of GoFundMe’s own terms of service, prompting questions about selective enforcement.

Interesting that the ~12 point swing in party identification seems to correspond somewhat precisely to the average swing we saw in special elections over the past 6 months
New Gallup figures in these charts. Well, so much for that emerging Republican majority people were writing about in November 2024. Was evidently a mass overreaction to Trump's win and failure to acknowledge softness of support, and thermostatic politics www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trumps-win...

My name is Mary Peltola, and I'm running for U.S. Senate to fight for fish, family, and freedom – and that begins with fixing the rigged system in DC that’s shutting down Alaska.

X was arguably worth banning when the owner used it to stoke violent political unrest — most notably with lies fueling racist riots in the UK — but the website generating and distributing child pornography is the perfect excuse to act, and multiple countries doing it at once undermines retaliation.
