Too bad there's no opposition party that could relentlessly press the case against war.

I was radicalized by a kind elderly Presbyterian minister in a brightly colored cardigan who played with puppets and told me that people could like me exactly as I am and that everyone is different and that's great and we should like them exactly as THEY are.
The entire millennial identity is being prepared and groomed for a version of the world that stopped existing by the time we reached it
we slammed into a horizon painted on a brick wall like fucking looney tunes
Tristan's first video back as a full time content creator! This video gives hope and practical calls to action. His voice is so needed for the times we're in.
The second you leave this country for even a few days, you realize the place you call home is decaying at an almost exponential pace. The realization that you don't have to live like this is stark, and that nobody in power is taking tangible actions to fix it in your lifetime is even starker.
Living through history: slow persistent dread punctuated by moments of fear and anger against a backdrop of mundanity
Grizzly Man is a masterpiece
Abolish DHS
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. Itβs dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
Stay free
Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But heβs continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.
βWhen they say, βWhy would you be out here?β How the fuck could I not be out here?β he says. βMy nation is under attack."
Watch the full training.

ABOLISH ICE.
I appreciate those out there protesting at great risk to their lives however i think the nation needs to grind this economy to a dead stop.
It's something everyone can do safely. No spending on ANYTHING but absolute necessities.
I understand some shut ins can not do this but very many of us can.

βICE agents appeared to be counting his bullet woundsβ friends there is not a hell hot enough
"I am a children's entertainer who specializes in face painting," writes a woman now in hiding from the federal government for witnessing a state-sanctioned street execution
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti βWe are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the βheroβ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trumpβs murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.
Another murder by immigration enforcement in my district.
I am absolutely horrified that federal agents are targeting and executing our residents instead of protecting them.
ICE and CBP must leave Minnesota immediately. Kristi Noem must be impeached. Enough.
Abolish ICE
People EVERYWHERE need to do what we are doing in their neighborhoods regardless of occupation status. Get prepared. They need to resist for and with us. And they shouldnβt let their electeds be comfortable. They can send money for mutual aid for us. Those are my best recommendations.
A picture of the Mary Tyler Moore statue in downtown Minneapolis, depicting the iconic moment from the show where she throws her hat in the air. But the hat has been covered over with a protesters cardboard sign, reading βFUCK ICE.β
On a downtown street in Minneapolis, as people stream out from the massive march, Mary Tyler Moore says βfuck ice.β
protestors have painted what appears to be a tunnel on the side of the mountain, causing ICE agents to run into the mountain at full speed.
disgusting.
When you focus on the regular people showing up magnificently in all of their flawed beauty, it helps you to keep going.
Sometimes itβs hard to separate βwhy isnβt the MSM covering thisβ and βwhy isnβt the public as outraged as we areβ when the stakes are so high, ya know
Denmark confirms an expanded, more permanent Danish and NATO military presence in and around Greenland, beginning today. Deployments span land, sea, and air, including protection of critical infrastructure, fighter jets, and naval operations. Sweden has committed forces; other NATO allies may follow
The thing that really makes Minneapolis different, other than the fact that they straight up murdered someone, is that they've dropped all pretense that this is just about immigration. The state has declared war on its own people, or at least those people who live in cities.
