Disturbing new piece about The Regime trying to get rid of disability accessibility, by the always amazing @juliametraux.bsky.social

Julia Métraux@juliametraux.bsky.social

The Department of Energy is trying to get rid of accessibility requirements for new construction via rulemaking. This unprecedented move, which seems to be illegal, could be the blueprint for other federal agencies to follow. New from me at @motherjones.com. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

This is a lie. We all saw the video. The Senator clearly identified himself, and he did not "lunge" toward anyone.   If these miserable propagandists will lie to you about roughing up a U.S. Senator in a room full of reporters, what won't they lie to you about?

ICE was "responding" to the chaos ICE itself created. It was not responding to the way LA is without intentional provocation from ICE. And now the National Guard is "responding" to the chaos ICE created. It is not responding to the way LA is without intentional provocation from ICE.

What’s happening in LA is a reminder that we are not free in this country. The hammer they’ve built is built for you. The cages they’ve built are ready to throw you in. They’re eager to get to it.

This administration needs to stop targeting international reporters, they’re the ones helping spread the truth. In multiple videos, officers are seen aiming directly at them, fully aware they’re members of the press. These so-called “non-lethal” rounds can absolutely be lethal.

Not sure why people who know full well that the extreme right played the role of infiltrator and provocateur during the BLM protests in 2020 and saw 1/6 with their own eyes fail to ask whether any of the troublemakers in LA are not legit. Watch for more provocations in the weeks to come.

www.bbc.com/news/article... Netanyahu is just another nationalist using genocide to forward his agenda. I stand with the Israeli people, I don't hate Jews (or anyone, based on religion) but this fills me with anger, how a people that knows genocide can accept this! Netanyahu= Hitler reincarnated!

bbc.comIsrael is accused of the gravest war crimes in GazaDistinguished lawyers, senior humanitarians and diplomats tell Jeremy Bowen why they are increasingly concerned about the catastrophe inside Gaza.

Replying to @kyivindependent.com

"Right now, assistance is being provided in Kharkiv to those wounded by Russian bombs. "And no matter what anyone says, these Russian strikes are not “retaliation” but acts of destruction. The complete destruction of life – that is what they want." - Volodymyr Zelenskyy 😡

Less than 45 minutes after President Donald Trump thanked the National Guard "for a job well done!" Mayor Karen Bass clarified on social media "the National Guard has not been deployed in the City of Los Angeles."

Just finished our clearing action for today. Swam out and collected two bags of plastic waste, seemingly dumped overboard by a passing yacht, coke bottles, ice wrappers etc. Now I enjoy a clean sea in front of me on the Turkish West coast.

Whatever happens in Los Angeles tonight is the playbook they’re going to deploy on blue districts across the country. And we warned people for months leading up to the election about exactly this.
