In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

ICE is removing detainees with final deportation orders from its online tracking system. This makes it nearly impossible for their lawyers and families to contact them, which could prevent them from using all their constitutionally protected legal options. Trump’s cruelty is endless.

“In the words of Muhammad Ali, ‘We shook up the world,’” Abdul El-Sayed declared after winning an intense primary campaign, where he was outspent by as much as 11 to 1. “What we showed is that the power of our many is greater than the power of their money.” This is a winning message for November.

Let’s talk about election interference.

The Trump administration’s plan to classify 2.7 million people as dead, which was not carried out, would have been used to pressure immigrants to leave the country. This would have potentially cut them off from government benefits and other services. https://wapo.st/4vsMMhj

Happy Pride Month. If you're a gay man, please remember your power. People often think that gay men are innately fashionable, which means if you wear some stupid shit for long enough, straight people, including homophobes, will copy you and then you can laugh at them.

They had contracts for prison labor at these camps?? Before they even bought them? www.projectsaltbox.com/p/contracts-...

I’m very proud of my wife for sharing the details she did. I’m disgusted by all of it. She found herself in one of those moments where she didn’t care what she lost if it helped one other person. The reality is the truth don’t care who tells it, but she told it. Love you @allysammarco.bsky.social

Can it really be considered an exclusive when I’ve been telling people this for months? Asking for a friend.

Followers of the white-nationalist streamer Nick Fuentes once constituted a tiny subculture of America’s young right; now they hope to overtake it. Antonia Hitchens reports on the Groypers’s growing influence over the Republican Party.

Meanwhile Prof Tim Snyder is also issuing warnings about the same.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected a Colorado law that banned psychotherapists from using "conversion" talk therapy intended to change an LGBT minor's sexual orientation or gender identity, siding ​with a Christian licensed counselor who challenged the prohibition on free speech grounds.

Between the conversion therapy ruling and the efforts to ban kids from the internet to “protect them” from “transgender influence,” we’re right back in a culture of violently enforced closeting. And the data around self-identifying as trans and queer already reflects this

1. In devastating news, the Supreme Court just ruled in favor of conversion therapy, a practice the UN calls torture. The ruling could have catastrophic consequences, writes Jackson in her sole dissent. The ruling comes on trans day of visibility. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Karoline Leavitt: "Some of the previous leaders are now no longer on planet Earth because they lied to the United States and they strung us along in negotiations, and that was unacceptable to the president, which is why many of the previous leaders were killed"

State control of big media is one of the first steps to total consolidation of power.

This was all it was ever about. No one in power ever gave a single fuck about the people of Cuba or their rights or freedom. All we did for 60+ years was starve, immiserate, and kill its people so we could hand the whole country back over to the rich gusano pigs who enslaved them in the first place

The partial government shutdown is about Dems seeking to prohibit ICE Nazis from hiding their identities by wearing masks and requiring them to wear body cams. Since they murder Americans, this is the minimum they should be required to do — but Republican fascists are refusing.

The Associated Press getting on board. "The war in Iran is exposing the world’s reliance on fragile fossil fuel routes, lending urgency to calls for hastening the shift to renewable energy."

At this stage they’re targeting citizens, and specifically trans people whose documents don’t match their AGAB.

Sorry to get political again on the silly Nintendo fangirl account but hey gang: when do we start really worrying about this shit. Are we there yet? Feels like we are there.

The contrast is ghoulish. A "pro-business" president nearly killing people because cruelty is the point.

NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.

The Trump regime’s worst policies are colliding in Camp East Montana, the nation's largest ICE detention facility, and creating even more human suffering. The cruelty is endless. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/ice-confirms-measles-outbreak-nations-largest-detention-facility-texas-rcna261659

JACOBS: Are we at war with Iran? COLBY: We're in a military action JACOBS: Yesterday, Trump said 'we're doing very well on the war front' and previously he said, 'we should expect casualties because that often happens in war.' So is he wrong? COLBY: I'm not the right person to weigh in
