Ed Sheeran isn’t neutral—receipts confirm he’s complicit. This isn't about antisemitism—but about enabling Palestinian genocide. Even now, Kanye ‘pro Hitler’ West is playing at the same venues Macklemore was just cancelled from for saying Free Palestine.😐 www.qasimrashid.com/p/ed-sheeran...

Afroman found not liable. A complete victory for the rapper and a massive unforced error from the cops and their attorney. www.billboard.com/pro/afroman-...

I truly understand the pleas for ICE to leave Minnesota. But leaving MN to go terrorize other states isn’t what anyone wants. ICE/DHS is kidnapping and murdering people in the streets AND IN DETENTION CENTERS. Abolishing ICE - and holding its leaders & agents accountable- is the absolute minimum.

Be safe, BlueSky family.

Reminder: The Epstein files aren’t delayed. A law is being broken. We’re still missing 99%.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

Urgent update. Our bipartisan petition to force a vote on a straightforward extension of the Affordable Care Act tax credits now has 218 signatures. Mike Johnson should bring the bill to the floor immediately.

sociopath: noun. A person who is completely unable or unwilling to behave in a way that is acceptable to society, as in Kristi Noem. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This new Guardian piece debunks our romantic, tidy image of the Montgomery bus boycott— and exposes it for the long, punishing and perilous slog it was. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

So why is Israel not in this Guardian headline, when the story informs us that “Since the US-brokered ceasefire was announced on 10 October, Israeli forces have killed more than 360 Palestinians in Gaza; according to a UN official, at least 70 are children.” www.theguardian.com/news/ng-inte...

Hegseth's war crime spree. Trump's pardons and prosecutions. A big blue wave on the horizon. We break down the week's biggest stories on today's Coffee Klatch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUUA...

Helena Cobban quotes security analyst Paul Pillar: “There is no ceasefire in the Gaza Strip... Israel has violated the ceasefire agreement 591 times between October 10 and December 2…The Ministry of Health in Gaza reports that during this period, 347 Palestinians have been killed and 889 injured.”

I know so many great people who are doing so much. If you are isolated from people who are trying their best, I can understand feeling like no one's doing anything, but really, you just need to find the people who are trying and try with them — or maybe encourage some new folks to try alongside you.

Our "forefathers" were foreign invaders who built this nation on the backs of West Africans. There, I fixed it for you Kristi.

The “overwhelm with outrages” administration strategy continues. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The distance between the United States and Venezuela is approximately 3,468 km (2,153 miles). Flights between the two countries typically take 12 to 14 hours. Yet the “stable genius” thinks the boats were coming here.

A win! A federal appeals court ruled that Alina Habba had been serving unlawfully as the U.S. Attorney in New Jersey.

BREAKING: We won! 3rd Circuit affirms illegality of Habba appointment We @democracydefendersfund.org are honored to work on this case with the wonderful folks at Lowell & Associates, Gerald Krovatin & many others 👇

We launched our official campaign account btw: @katforillinois.bsky.social It’s very serious and very official and you should follow it.

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

Emulate the action of the resistors in Portland and Los Angeles and Chicago. Make noise , bang on something, clap, shout ,call out the illegality of kidnapping people. If 50 people are making noise the 6 goons will back up.

Watching this video again, I noticed the airport policeman accepted a quick flash of a badge by one of the kidnappers who lifted up his sweatshirt to show it. THAT'S IT?!?! No demand for ID and warrant? Dude, these kidnappers come into your place of work, and you don't get REAL confirmation?

We only assume that they are ICE. I keep saying we are going to find people with basements full of abused Latina women at the end of this.

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

Even in the tragedy of Trump’s deadly DC circus, this brings some welcome comic relief! m.youtube.com/watch?v=Xr0_...

So now Trump orders that the unnecessary and provocative presence of the National Guard, which set up this shooting in the first place, be expanded and lengthened, making things even more dangerous here in DC. It’s what we’ve come to expect from this malevolent lunatic.

Miss Piggy FTW

Guten Morgen! (Hemsedal, Norwegen, Sommer 2025)

If you want to live under a king, you ultimately wish to be a slave to that person’s commands. If you want to live under a democracy, you wish to be free to do anything that’s allowed under the law. The people who want authoritarianism don’t feel confident enough to live with real freedom.

Lest we forget this other major western government that has abandoned principles and decency: Israel. www.aljazeera.com#flips-638556...

America has become a rogue nation. U.S. allies are looking elsewhere. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
