Israeli Official: Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei Was Killed, His Body Found Haaretz β’ LIVE Ψ§ΩΩΨ¨ΩΩΩΨ±Ω ΩΩΨ§ ΨΉΩΨͺΩΨ―ΩΨ§ ΨΉΩΩΩΩΩΩ
Rather than perceive the genocide in Gaza as a warning to Israel & the US about the limits of their power & global forbearance for their crimes, they seem to have interpreted as a sign that they can now get away with anything
indiscriminately bombing Iran is not a distraction of the Epstein files, it is a validation of their significance as more than a sex pest hunt. this is what elite impunity for morons looks like. a school turned to rubble on a whim.
The bombing of Iran, the starving of Cuba, the waging of genocide in Palestine. It's time to let go of the idea the role of the US is to enforce a rules-based order, and instead recognize the incredible harm our country unleashes around the world, and take meaningful action to reduce it.
Diplomacy was entirely fake - again. Reuters reports that the US and Israel were planning to attack Iran for months and the date was decided weeks ago, before even the recent few rounds of talks took place.
I think this justifies the White House meeting by itself
βWe donβt have to wonder what she stands for β she has proven it over and over. We have no doubt she will continue to champion the needs of our members and look forward to her leadership on the DC council.β

Woke 2.0 ya estΓ‘ aquΓ
My husband and my friend Jules both represented. Commonweal is crushing it this month
While glad to see Bovino humbled, I really donβt have any higher opinion of Homanβa cruel, cold, corrupt, calculating bureaucrat whoβs devoted more of his career to mass deportation than almost anyone. Heβs the architect of child separation.
Bovinoβs retirement needs to be a cage. His command environment yielded Renee Goodβs death, Alex Prettiβs death & Julio Sosa-Celisβ shooting. Failure to prosecute Bovino & everyone else materially responsible for these atrocities will be understood by ICE, CBP, etc as a green light for the next ones
A lovely piece β€οΈ
signs left at alex prettiβs memorial in minneapolis: βi love you so much / iβll miss you foreverβ photo with a friend, βi would have done the same. RIP alex,β a stethoscope and βweβll take it from here, alexβ and a tshirt for the minnesota nurses association
Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."
Alex Pretti took care of veterans as an ICU nurse. βHe was a super nice, super helpful guy β looked after his patients," said @dimitridrekonja.bsky.social, who worked with Pretti both at the hospital and on scientific research. "Iβm just stunned.β

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.
you should be horrified and your blood should be boiling, but a guy shouting "you'll have to kill me" at these goons to protect his neighbors should bring you the opposite of despair
a hero and a martyr
The detention of witnesses and seizure of their phones is an extraordinary violation of every fucking Amendment you can name:

One upside of living through the Bush-Cheney years was learning never to believe Republicans when they say they believe in anything. All you need to know is their ideology will pretzel to reinforce hierarchy and power no matter what. Itβs actually fine for the government to kill you if youβre armed
ICE agents killed a man and are disappearing the witnesses.
Every single one of them is risking their lives against death squads to prove that the fascist vision of America, a country where we hate everyone different than ourselves, is a fucking lie
They put five more bullets in this guy when he's already lying prone on the ground, five feet away from them, in addition to the previous several bullets they shot him with.
just realized that march for life is this weekend, iβm cackling π
A masked ICE officials with a 5 year old child
This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars
I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally
Unclear to me if this fucking five year old kid getting kidnapped is breaking through outside of the Twin Cities and I donβt want to speak for anyone else but this has really steeled my resolve. This shit cannot be allowed to stand.
dumb fuck with shitty cartoon av: Follow It was your job, as voters, not to elect the guy who was clearly going to do all this. You failed at that job. It was not the democrats' "job" to convince you. The democrats were job applicants. So were the republicans. Your job was to hire the better applicant. You failed spectacularly.
the funny thing about these lectures, which i would love to give this person a bullhorn to yell in minneapolis right now, is that a harris administration would have kept increasing funding for ICE despite the certainty a right wing president was eventually going to inherit it. we tied our own noose
