I don’t like the Chicago air and water show on the best of days, but flying a bunch of military planes over the city while the president actively threatens to take it over by force feels particularly bad

Guess Who’s Eligible for Student Loan Forgiveness: New ICE Agents Thanks to the Supreme Court and the Trump administration, student loan forgiveness is out of reach for many β€” unless you work for ICE.

β€œThis just shows the lengths that the Trump administration will go to to weaponize Public Service Loan Forgiveness and debt more broadly to achieve their fascist objectives.”

As electric bills rise, evidence mounts that data centers share blame. States feel pressure to act Amid rising electric bills, states are under pressure to insulate regular household and business ratepayers from the costs of feeding Big Tech’s energy-hungry data centers.

Has your power bill gone up?

ChatGPT might be part of why.

When his lawyer met with him, Chris was surrounded by six members of Israel’s special police unit. This level of force was not used against other abducted activists.

You cannot address the starvation in Gaza without addressing the fact that Israel also destroyed all agriculture and fishing as part of this engineered famine. It's not just cutting off food aid, it is destroying all internal capability to feed people.

ICE just killed a man (arguably not the first if you count detention deaths) and the feds are turning Florida into a black site. Discussions need to be had that shouldn't be taking place on social media. Don't assume you know how someone is moving based solely on their public persona.

If you are emotionally/ physically unable to accept the existence of trans people to the point of erasing them, stop celebrating, and stop acknowledging pride. Seriously. We don't need halfway pride. There is no pride in erasure.

The world is full of this sort of spoiled, worthless aristocrat that sits idle, living off the money their families made torturing and murdering the poor of their own countries to fatten the wallets of foreign capitalists, and it is a primary function of US foreign policy to restore them to power

Every extra hour that ICE spends facing off with activists is an hour they can't spend kidnapping other people.

Every extra minute ICE has to spend contingency planning around activists and neighbors, every extra officer ICE has to put on a kidnap squad, is a drain on their efficiency.

Yall really glossed over the fact that the victim was killed by armed security guard you hired.

And the fact that the shooting only happened because the security guard you hired decided to fire on a PoC who you then scapegoated and handed over to the police.
