love and power are antithetical, unless the love is for power. in that case, no love remains for anything else.

How do you spell gestapo?

Mere hours after Republicans voted to keep the Epstein files a secret, Rep. Clay Higgins (R) is talking tough about child trafficking and NGOs.
And pointing a finger at President Biden.
The cognitive dissonance is astounding.
Files that have gone from being on the desk of the AG to having never existed to having been created by Obama and Biden. The next logical progression is that Kristi Noem's dog ate them and that's why she shot him.
Democratic party has been useless. It's all variations of centrist power grabbers, with a few outliers actually fighting for the people. If our elected representatives won't fight, we're pretty fucked.
"They were crying in fear. One of the agents at one point lifted up his shirt, which displayed the gun that he was carrying," Mukherjee said. "The 6-year-old boy was terrified to see the gun. He urinated on himself and wet all his clothing. No one offered him a change of clothing for many hours." The family was then transported to the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Texas, where they have been detained for several weeks. The 6-year-old boy has been diagnosed with leukemia and has missed a medical appointment to be treated for worsening symptoms, according to the lawsuit filed Tuesday in federal court in San Antonio by the Immigrant Rights Clinic and The Texas Civil Rights Project.
Every word of this is depraved beyond belief.
ICE abducted a six year old with leukemia, threatened him with a gun such that he wet himself, and has denied him medical treatment.
I don’t know what to say.

A win! Thank you to everyone who spoke out! After facing bipartisan resistance, the Senate Parliamentarian, ruled that Sen. Mike Lee’s proposal to sell off millions of acres of federal land cannot be included under reconciliation rules.
The data is undeniable:
•15 of top 16 states with the highest rates of infant mortality are red states that deny/ban repro access.
•12 of top 13 states with the lowest rates of infant mortality are blue states that protect repro access.
Why is this even a debate?

It’s a wild day on Capitol Hill from motions to adjourn and shut down the House to impeachment—here’s what is going down. ⬇️
Before coming to Congress, I was an Army Ranger & paratrooper.
I served three combat tours as a part of our last decades-long war in the Middle East.
Congress must re-assert its authority over the use of military force.
Yep. Just like that
CARTER: The Adolescent Trial Network for HIV intervention received a stop work order that shut down research at 14 sites where 7 studies were being conducted. Were you aware of that?
RFK JR: As far as I know, we haven't cut any clinica--
CARTER: I'm telling you by your own records you are
PALLONE: With regard to vaccines, are you just afraid to receive public comments on proposals? There's been no public process
RFK JR: We have a public process for regulating vaccines. It's called the ACIP committee.
PALLONE: You fired the committee!
wow, like four of them. we have nothing compared to Europe
It's all for sale, welcome to the post-capitalist, fascist, dystopian hellscape 😔
I say again: men are clearly too emotional to be in leadership.
“ICE agents have to wear masks and no uniform because they have become so deeply unpopular that it’s safer to appear to be a vigilante kidnapper” is a hell of an argument
This is exactly the right tone when privileged people suffer minor or temporary consequences standing up for powerless people. It’s still about the powerless people.
ICE is Gestapo trash.
ICE is using racial profiling and it was completely predictable.
ICE (basically): “If they’re brown…we’ll hunt them down!”
Padilla: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees and then flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway repeatedly asking, why am I being detained?
Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this
asking the few followers I have over here: please boost and repost the #nokings footage you see, so it is spread across the world and cannot be denied.
This IS art. Squeaky wheels don't always get the grease, apparently.
curious lack of the flag and other patriotic American symbols, almost as if the parade stopped being about the military except for their required participation. 🫠
Whose flag? OUR FLAG.

“No Kings Day”: A compilation
The FBI is offering a $50,000 award for info leading to the arrest of the suspect in the assassination of MN Dem. Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. He also shot others and a manifesto was found belonging to him and targeting other Dem. leaders in the state. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
