I promise you that the government that murdered Alex Pretti and Renee Good does not give a flying fuck about the protests in Iran.
A blood-red moon will soon grace the skies for a total lunar eclipse. The spectacle will be visible Tuesday morning from North America, Central America and the western part of South America. https://to.pbs.org/4rA0Y6E
Times like these I’m so glad Merrick Garland stuck to “norms” & refused to prosecute Trump for his many crimes. Because yes—while we are facing the very real threat of global nuclear war—at least we don’t have the shame of a former president sitting in prison. Boy would that’ve been embarrassing.
Just saying, but when people are trying to do everything they can to prevent you from voting, that’s when you absolutely need to vote.
Ready to make this the biggest midterm turnout in history?
Black and white background reminiscent of moving through outer space at speed, with tweet screenshot from user @MattYglesias at forefront that reads “Trump warned me that if I voted for Kamala Harris we’d have higher prices and a government-run economy at home and new wars abroad, and I voted for Harris and that’s exactly what we got.”
Is the country great yet, or just the level of attempted distraction?
Thank God there were people filming. This administration would have said Alex Pretti pulled a handgun, a package of fentanyl, and a signed copy of the Communist Manifesto if they could.
Imagine what’s happening in the camps.
It takes an enormous amount of courage to stand there, keep filming, and scream "What the fuck, you asshole" at someone wearing a badge who just shot and killed one of your neighbors in cold blood.
NEW: Second video shows ICE shooting in Minneapolis. A woman, a U.S. citizen, was killed

Didn’t reach my goal, but I enjoyed reading so many words pieced together by authors who took the time to share their creativity.
I’m able to be a reader because of authors - Thank You! 🫶🏻

There’s a special kind of heartbreak in happening across a multi-part book series only to discover—at the end of reading the 7th book—that it’s unfinished and the author has been MIA for years #Booksky

Ah it would appear there is footage of police expelling everyone — including credentialed press — from the Rotunda and closing the doors while they arrested Rev. Barber and two others (I appear briefly in the end): vimeo.com/1079534787
So this interview lasted 2 hours so this “you’re scaring me” part might seem like an overreaction or fearmongering to someone without that context.
There’s a lot of evidence to support my hypothesis that a potential H5N1 pandemic would be worse than COVID.
Have you heard? There’s a new bill that makes it harder for millions of eligible Americans to vote. Join me and @standupamerica.bsky.social in urging Congress to vote NO on the SAVE Act: act.standupamerica.com/letters/no-o...
When they seek to control it all, the message must be vast and encompassing

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Uncuring cancer to own the libs.
How else do you possibly explain this?
Eggs were the acceptable cover but, unfortunately, we need to face reality that more people than we’d like to admit are pleased to suffer as long a those they deem “other” suffer just a bit more.
Hold strong @senatedemocrats.bsky.social
We have your back!
It does not matter at all what Mahmoud Khalil has said. The government does not get to black bag a legal permanent resident for their speech. We have a 1st Amendment right to free speech that forbids the government from punishing people for it. That's a solid red line that should never be crossed.
Ripped headline from the New York Times that reads: Education Department to Fire 1,300 Workers, Gutting its Staff
President Trump and Republicans want to eliminate the Department of Education, cut funding for public education, and sell out Wisconsin’s kids and our schools—all so they can help pay for tax breaks to rich millionaires and billionaires.
I call bullshit.
🖋️ “Stand with Ukraine & Democracy: Condemn the Disgraceful Treatment of Zelensky” hit 1,000 signers!
This is a bigger scandal than people realize.
It really makes it look as though this entire meeting was a setup by Trump that was planned in advance.
If you watch the video it is clear that they are deliberately and almost derangedly blindsiding Zelenskyy. Now we know who the audience was.
Putin.
