i feel america is right on the cusp of understanding that we don't have the ability to dictate political outcomes in other countries

Inshallah 🙏🏻

The Middle East is full of religious extremists who blindly revere evil men. Oops! I meant *The United States* not The Middle East.

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

Always exciting to see the Avignon Papacy in the news

Cops fractured his skull for standing by in peaceful protest. And people in power claimed he assaulted the cops. No hell greater for those who smeared him. RIP.

I simply think that no American President and in fact no human being at all should ever have the capacity to destroy civilization and it is sheer madness that we exist in a world where this is possible even when that isn’t foremost in our minds and headlines

BTW the people who spent the last few years advocating for Palestine were clearly 100% right that normalizing war crimes and genocide there would just increase the likelihood of inhumane actions elsewhere. Just saying.

everything we are seeing now is the consequence of having a political environment in which indifference to the deaths and suffering of other people - even by the state whose supposed responsibility is to safeguard their welfare - is a superpower rather than a political liability

Is it a good sign that the White House commandeered prime time on the networks to broadcast what was essentially an unconvincing proof-of-life video?

Just one more week bro please bro Iran was just about to do something crazy bro please just $10 billion more please bro trust me they will hit us imminently bro please just two more just three more weeks bro please bro I promise you you’re gonna be so glad I did this just four mo

tariffs happening for no reason and theyre making your life worse, secret police kidnapping people for no reason and making your life worse, firing thousands of government employees for no reason and making your life worse, going to war with iran for no reason and making your life worse

How much of what Dems did from 2021-24 was identical to what they would have done in a world where Mitt Romney was the previous president? 80%? 90%? 95%? This failure to react to an obviously existential threat is proof positive that they were in the grips of a delusion of artificial normality.

The State of the Union: the president is a corrupt demented sex criminal who tried to overthrow the constitution.

NOTE: If you hear the N-word during tonight's State of the Union, it's either because someone in the audience has Tourette's or the president is speaking

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M, to detain 4k people of whom only 30 were accused of violent crimes. $9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Plus two citizens murdered. ~ Veterans for Peace

Ngl. Trump having a bad day always makes my day a little bit better.

I just want to live in a country where the leader can’t enrich themselves with our tax dollars, the government does what the people want, and the wealthy have to follow the laws. You know, like a democracy.

Use every tool in the NIMBY playbook. Karen for good.

Virtue signaling: because it's not possible people actually have virtue

starting to think our president might not be a very good person

You need to show ID to buy a beer. Why shouldn't you have to carry papers with you at all times to avoid being sent to ICE concentration camps?

You really don’t have to hand it to the Dachau guards

"Potemkin village looks great!" declares Democratic politician who wasn't allowed to interact with any of the villagers.

DHS is holding a 2-month-old BABY at a detention facility in Texas. Last night, Juan Nicolás was rushed to the hospital after choking on his own vomit & being unable to breathe. This demands accountability — not a blank check for more cruelty.

"we need to elect a politician not based on policy or purity or emotion" okay then what the fuck are we supposed to elect them based on

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: “I was literally begging the agent who was holding me back to let me do CPR,” she told The Intercept.

I always say this—if any data or footage is collected anywhere, eventually police will come asking for it or someone will figure out a way to sell them access to it. This is also true of ICE.

Sanders: The American people do not want this country to be an authoritarian society or an oligarchy. We have our differences, that’s what democracy is about—we argue it out. We don’t throw people who disagree in jail. We don’t intimidate the media. We don’t send ICE agents to shoot people.

just remembered that recently out of the blue my 7-year-old asked “dad, what was the collapse of the soviet union?”

To her credit, Bondi did not shoot the pup dead as Noem did. She was instead ready to use lawyers to break the heart of its four-year-old owner, though in light of ICE nowadays grabbing children off the street and incarcerating them without their parents, she was just in training.

Liberals already fighting leftists over primaries that haven’t even started yet is the most Democratic Party shit I have ever seen.

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here. Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

under questioning by Rand Paul, ICE officials confirm that yelling at officers is not assault and recording officers is not a crime

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones. Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

"It is totally inappropriate and against the separations of powers for the DOJ to surveil us as we search the Epstein files. (US Attorney General) Bondi showed up today with a burn book that held a printed search history of exactly what emails I searched." - Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA).

Keith Ellison: This is the single largest deployment of immigrant agents in the history of the country.

Raskin: "I want the whole country to look at this. This is the attorney general of the US whose job is law enforcement. We've never had a witness who has misunderstood our rules and been unable to conform his or her conduct to our rules before. Excuse me."
