He's been predicting that since September 2002, when offered Congress his "guarantee" that a US regime change war in Iraq would "have enormous positive reverberations in the region" and bring an end to Iran's Islamic Republic
what a crazy night for sam altman to be like "yeah we got that dept of war deal, and there's no moral concerns here"
Trump and Israel started bombing Iran while in the middle of negotiations
Trump is starving Cuba
He’s threatening to annex Canada
He removed the leader of Venezuela
He’s threatening Greenland
He’s aiding a genocide in Gaza
This is the man who took your tax dollars for his “Board of Peace”.
It is clear now that the Omani foreign minister's sudden media blitz last night was an attempt to shame the United States by putting into the public record how readily Iran was prepared to reach a deal.
Just called my US rep, @danielsgoldman.dg4ny.co, to tell him to impeach for Trump for this illegal war.
You can call your US rep, too. Find them here: reps.fyi
In case you’re just waking up, the U.S. has teamed up with Israel overnight to start an illegal war of regime change, apparently on a presidential whim with no involvement of Congress, and they are already committing horrific atrocities.
This is cool as hell: An app designed to ping people about nearby smartglasses.
Also cool: The creator was inspired by @404media.co coverage, a great illustration of why their journalism is so essential. This kind of work is funded by paid subscribers so become one of those if you can.
Please please please even if you can't call, recirculate these posts so who can make the call see it
The current regime took a week to abolish USAID, which is three times as old and was not in the news every day for brutalizing children
Cops kill people pretty much every single day in this country. Stop saying that “ICE isnt law enforcement - it’s a fascist street gang”
Cops ARE a fascist street gang. And the fact that you can’t see that is one of the reasons we’re in this shit
If there's ever been a time to NOT be incrementalist, this is it. The most political capital you're gonna have is right now. And we got Gestapo death squads in MSP and TB spreading through concentration camps in Texas. If you can't find a win there, get out of politics. The Epstein Class, baby
She was then sent back to Dilley from the PICU and denied her prescription medications.
Disease is being weaponized to kill people our government considers undesirable.
I hope you can connect the dots to how they told you to throw off your masks and stop getting vaccinations.
But Liam was scared and frequently asked what they had done wrong, where they were and what happened to the little blue knit hat he wore the day he was detained, Conejo said. There wasn’t much he could say to his son, “except hug him and tell him everything would be OK,” Conejo said. Worried about further upsetting his son, Conejo said, he was forced to bite back his own tears.
Liam has since been reunited with his hat and continues to wear it, even inside the house, his dad said Thursday. Asked how he might one day explain to Liam everything that has happened, Conejo said he would tell his son that he had become the face of hope and change. "He was the global figure who did all this so that the voices of the people demanding freedom would be heard, especially those of the children who are still locked up," Conejo said. “I would tell him he was very brave and that I am very proud of him.”
welp, this destroyed me first thing upon waking up
A short and glossy but useful history of American borders and why ICE and the services it provides are extremely unnecessary
Like we don’t need anything that ICE does (or much of what INS did)

This or just dumping people *in the woods* AND sending folks out w/o their phone or I.D.
Volunteers w/ Safe Haven wait at the gate & do sweeps of the woods, with warm clothes, a burner, and a ride home, "so no one is left alone at the gate."

For years, I’ve said something many of you did not want to hear: that “good white folx” would eventually find themselves harmed by the very systems, institutions, and policies rooted in the myth of white supremacy that you believed protected you by default.
A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
German Jews were citizens of Germany at the start of 1933. By the end of 1933, the Nazis had
removed citizenship from naturalized citizen Jews.
In 1935, all German Jews were fully stripped of their German citizenship.
Citizenship under dictatorships is contingent for targeted minorities.
It would have been better to use an accurate headline and inspire the people to make sure she actually does what she said she’s going to do. To hold her accountable.
Presenting the situation as if she already kept her word serves one purpose: to placate the people.
Why is this a problem when it’s a “step in the right direction?” Because the headline is intentionally misleading to make us think something actually happened when really, it’s just the same playbook: give the people the illusion that we’re doing something.
For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.
The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
if you vote for another cent for this you are a collaborator. this is a litmus test for every politician for the rest of my life
You cannot tell voters that this regime is an existential threat one day and aid and abet it every other day. Either you're lying or you are complicit, neither of which makes you fit for office.
DC residents have been refusing to call that airport anything but National for almost thirty years, we certainly can refuse to call that arts center anything but the Kennedy Center for three
Ghost has a recommendations system that looks like it does something similar to Substack: ghost.org/help/recomme...,
and it also allows comments on posts: ghost.org/help/comment...
Hopefully this will make it easier to avoid the other place?

As shitty and nightmarish the very concept of ICE is, I really feel heartened and almost a little patriotic at how every city uses it's topography and culture to resist.
Traffic jams in NYC, absurd costumes in Oregon, running ICE into the woods in NC, ice on ICE violence in Minnesota, etc.
who decided to call it Secret Santa when Nondisclosure Claus was right there
Asked for comment by Sky News, the IDF responded: "Earlier today, IDF troops identified two suspects who crossed the yellow line, conducted suspicious activities on the ground, and approached IDF troops operating in the southern Gaza Strip, posing an immediate threat to them. "Following the identification, the IAF eliminated the suspects in order to remove the threat."
They were 8 and 11 years old
