Historically, taxes were nothing more than a method of legally stealing from working people’s to enrich the rulers. That it became (slightly) redirected to supporting some select group of working people was the result of much struggle and, even then, the support was incredibly miserly.

Kelly @broadwaybabyto.bsky.social · 1d

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

THREAD. When my parents' cat Bridget went missing, my dad, to try to ease his worry, painted her on a variety of historical adventures. These soon multiplied. Significantly.

After much nagging, he has had some postcards printed of this brilliant series:

But non-Nazis must have their free speech curtailed because they’re anti-Semitic. Right.

I just checked and this is real. It's on Border Patrol's official Instagram (I don't see it on Facebook) and is being celebrated by Nazis on Twitter, as you can see in the screenshot.

The clip is just 13 seconds long too, so it's a very intentional thing. We've got a Nazi government.

ICE tracking / rapid response groups: to avoid getting shut down, use secure off-shore phone line with a local area code plus secure off-shore document storer.

Nothing in the US and no tech corp is safe or reliable.

Facebook suspends popular Chicago ICE-sightings group at Trump administration’s request

The group ICE Sighting-Chicagoland has been increasingly used in the last five weeks of President Donald Trump’s intense deportation campaign to warn neighbors that federal agents are nearby.

The entire incident is infuriating and terrifying. She’s a Latina woman who was working a service job. On her way home late at night, with her headphones in, she was detained for an hour by masked federal agents who wouldn’t give her their names.

Maria Greeley, 44, had just finished working a double shift at the Beach Bar on Ohio Street
earlier this month when she said she was surrounded by three federal agents who grabbed her, forced her hands behind her back and zip tied her.
Headphones in, Greeley had been focused on getting home to her two dogs for a walk.
Instead, she said she was detained by masked agents who did not answer when she asked for names. They questioned her for an hour, she said.

Again, every time this happens, we literally have no idea if the masked, plainclothes people are actual government agents, or private citizens acting in party-affiliated paramilitaries. The whole point of IDs & uniforms & no masks is that we know these things.

I am very thankful that those held hostage by Hamas have been returned to their loved ones. And that they are being flown to the best hospitals, where their medical needs will be taken care of

I wish people in Gaza also had medical care and nourishment

And when is the aid going to flow into Gaza?!

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.
