That the illegal destruction of USAID will kill more than *20 million people* in the next five years, & has ALREADY KILLED 600,000 in just one year, is a world-historical crime that Americans aren't being told about in the terms & with the repetition necessary for them to believe it.
That concentration camp where they had Liam is still filled with kids and families. Every one of them is another Liam. They all must be freed, and ICE must be abolished.
Find your organizing home and get to work.
Never forget this. The Spidey backpack they showed him with after being released had a brand new tag on it. I don't think ICE ever returned his actual backpack.
Holy crap! That's amazing! 🤘🏻💖🤘🏻
oh I'm cooked? I'm washed? well joke's on you. cooking and washing are important household chores and I take them as a compliment.
sinema is up there with joe lieberman on my list of people whose faces make me break out in rage hives but you gotta respect her commitment to being a terrible human being 24/7, few politicians have ever reached this level of "fuck you I got mine"
this is why you must always oppose every act an imperialist country does, because then they’ll soon come for everyone
Unconstitutional force. Civilians dead. Congress bypassed. Oil interests front and center.
We’ve seen this movie before and it ends in blood. But we don’t have to do it again.

This one is resonating today. #Andor
And there ya have it…
Officials from top Wall Street firms will be traveling to Venezuela to investigate “investment prospects” of the country. “The trip will feature about 20 officials from the finance, energy and defense sectors.”
September 1, 1939: Using lies as justification, Hitler broke international law by invading Poland.
February 24, 2022: Using lies as justification, Putin broke international law by invading Ukraine.
January 3, 2026: Using lies as justification, Trump broke international law by invading Venezuela.
Trump is the Putin of the Western hemisphere and should be treated as such including being prosecuted and personally sanctioned—along with his top officials—by other nations. If there is no punishment for this attack, he will 100% repeat it. My article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-shou...
Happening now: several hundred people are pouring into Chicago's downtown Federal Plaza.
It's 25 degrees outside.
Organizers are leading the crowd in a chant of, "no boots on the ground, no bombs in the air!"
Two protesters hold a large banner reading, "no war for Venezuela oil."
A long, rusty, wheel bender design with a ding in the bottom. 2 ideal parking spots for bikes, 4 if they turn sideways.
Bike racks on Scarth St. across 11th from Cornwall Centre
I went out on a fact-finding bike ride this morning.
Did the City put some bike racks on Scarth St. Mall like they said they would?
Yes, they did. #YQRcc #YQRbike
The assist from nature/God itself, too. Like, that performance was already an A, but that performance in that storm? A+.
Strike down Media Matters and it will become the Pope
Either Peter Thiel knows nothing about branding or he wants us to associate him almost exclusively with the Antichrist.

A Tumblr post from the-modern-typewriter reading: "How can you not be angry?" am angry" the werewolf said. "But unlike you, don't have the luxury of showing it without being called a monster. Without someone taking it as a sign of proof thatI need to be put down like a rabid dog, that I'm just like what the stories tell you." "But everyone gets angry...that's human." "Up until the point when you're not human" And the response from mckitterick: such a wonderful metaphor for anyone Othered by society
Weird how this *remains relevant*
To be clear: this entire “we’ve got to run more pro-lifers” insanity is because literally a week ago polling showed that Democrats would prefer politicians like AOC and Mamdani over Jefferies and Schumer by, let me emphasize this, a 20 point fucking margin.

OLIVER: “In Russia, when Putin rose to power, TV satirists were among his first targets… Putin was driven to madness by how he was mocked on a puppet show… the lesson is it’s not safe to let one show slide because there are currently others.”
If the folks marching in London today got their wish and a Reform UK government deported everyone not born in the UK, here’s what would happen. Instantly, over 15% of the population and 20% of employees would be gone overnight. The shock would hit GDP, tax revenues and public services hard. 🧵
if you are ever tempted to write off the residents of a "red" (i.e., gerrymandered) state and say "set them adrift, let them secede, they deserve what they voted for", you are missing all the thousands of stories like this where the human beings in those states are pushing back every single day
There was an SNL sketch from the '92 campaign that featured the Democratic candidates in a town hall taking questions from low-information voters. The questions were inane and nonsensical, but the candidates all took them seriously, much to the moderator's annoyance.
I think about that a lot.
If you're National Guard or any other service member being deployed against people in the US and you'd like to apply for conscientious objector status or have any other concerns whatsoever, call the GI Rights Hotline to get some guidance on your options:

“The radical right thinks that only white men of European descent should have any rights. The radical left thinks that everyone should have rights. It is only I, the enlightened moderate, who understands that we must meet in the middle and give many people rights - but surely not everyone."
“California is so far using forty per cent less natural gas to generate electricity than it did in 2023, which is the single most hopeful statistic I’ve seen in four decades of writing about the climate crisis.”

That's a very good question for Scott Moe .
