I know one thing. If I were a young blonde, white woman, and a police officer shot me ON CAMERA, my settlement would be large enough to have its own itemized line on LA's yearly budget.
LAPD fired rubber bullets at Australian journalist @laurentomasi.bsky.social
⚠️ Warning: The Trump administration is circulating footage from 2020 to make the situation in L.A. appear more chaotic than it is. This is an intentional effort to manufacture a larger crisis. Stay alert. Pay attention. The propaganda machine is in overdrive.
ICE rolls in, LA rises up.🔥
If Stephen Miller was looking for immigrants to roll over and just take it from his ICE goons, he picked the wrong f*cking town. Between yesterday in LA City and Paramount today, the community is fighting back.
Yall should look more into the Iowa Writer Workshop and its connections to the ClA
Astonishing crowd inside Manhattan Criminal Court two hours before Luigi Mangione’s follow-up appearance. Organized chaos, people are in cordoned-off gaggles down the full length of the hall, chatting casually. Feels reminiscent of fans waiting for a concert ticket line to open.
We could use a break between global pandemics
Godspeed 🙏🏻
I love when white people
I mean you just gotta do a little self trickery and convince yourself it’s the moral thing to do.
So strange how this pose keeps happening hm? 🤔
Congress pays $650 for the WHOLE YEAR for medical coverage and I’m sitting here paying $500 a month?
Absolute scum of the earth, man. I hate it here.
I don’t believe those who went into this past election taking pride in the unemployment numbers understood that the near-record low unemployment figures — the figure was a mere 4.2 percent in November — counted homeless people doing occasional work as “employed.” But the implications are powerful. If you filter the statistic to include as unemployed people who can’t find anything but part-time work or who make a poverty wage (roughly $25,000), the percentage is actually 23.7 percent. In other words, nearly one of every four workers is functionally unemployed in America today — hardly something to celebrate.
I cannot overstate how damning this data is: although Dems gaslit us all about the 'robust' state of the economy, in fact, as WE ALL KNOW BASED ON LIVING IN THE WORLD, economic conditions are bleak af. For instance, 24% of the population is FUNCTIONALLY UNEMPLOYED.

it is genuinely incredible that all you have to do is scratch the surface and it becomes clear that each of these guys is a huge piece of shit
This is literally a death sentence for Medicaid and every person who depends on it.
Death sentence.

‘You Can’t Let This Happen,’ Says Fundraising Email From Sitting U.S. Congressperson
im not even exaggerating when i tell you i truly do believe my book does a lot to clarify the social agenda, motivations and vast goals of a big swathe of the current admin's people, and their lawlessness. (they see themselves as answering to god's law, not man's.)
I went to my Congressman's local office today. First off, they were surprised that I was there. They said they had been getting phone calls, but I was the first walk-in. That said, the phones were not ringing off the hook. If the DC phone lines are busy, try calling the local office.
Found on X and not seeing this anywhere else. Highway-blocking protest in LA and riot police were there.
Oh god it’s my ex 😬
Trillions of dollars of taxpayer money are now controlled by that one middle-aged white guy in your Philosophy 101 class who read an Ayn Rand book once & now thinks he knows everything about economics & politics.
seeing just how much evangelical christianity is soaked into every pore of all this horseshit....... all the initatives to drive women and minorities from public life in particular..... their Obsession with hierarchy and obedience and submission -- it's everywhere, like the foulest smell
Exactly this.
in case you're wondering, the whole nonprofit world is on fire right now. ppl aren't going to be able to pay their employees this week bc the funding freeze has already been implemented in certain federal divisions that nonprofits draw from, before the time/date they were given.
Men will literally call themselves alpha males and then beg for a boot on their neck.

Guess who is a certified Perinatal Mental Health professional now? 🎉🎉🎉
I understand the origin of his bitterness as a 2nd generation Polish American but like… it’s not even comparable.
By a longshot, the most common mistake people who are into politics make - from seven-figure strategists to randos offering Takes online - is overestimating how much attention normal people pay to politics, how much they know, and how deeply they think about it.
*Vastly* overestimating.
PLEASE RETIRE MY GOD
Like, I told him the inaccuracies of all of this but how do you get to this level of alternate reality?
