Dark enlightenment & other crazy Thiel pet projects are unfolding. It's critical that people understand that the brownshirts hacking the entire USA infrastructure and dismantling it are his and Elon minions. Thiel sees himself as some sort of Saruman, while he fondles his Palantír.

What’s happening now is part of a plan to end democracy:

“It is clear that Thiel sees corporations as the governments of the future and capitalists such as himself as the kings, and it is also clear that this is a shockingly common view in Thiel’s cohort.”

Why has Dominion Voting Systems been settling defamation lawsuits with Trump allies who falsely claimed the company stole the 2020 election?

Because Dominion has just been bought by a company run by a former GOP election official.

Be warned.

A classic case of irresponsible both-sidesism from the NYT. The story is that Trump and MAGA propagandists are lying about Portland to incite a conflict, not that there are different views of the matter.

Despite the pause in the relentless bombing: famine is still the reality for the people in Gaza. It won’t be fixed in a day, month, years. It’s a generational destruction of a body and soul.

What would you do if this was your child? The inhumanity and cruelty we’re seeing in Gaza is beyond unacceptable, and history will rightfully denounce the warmongers responsible for these atrocities.

Enough with the headlines replacing “mass starvation & genocide” with “famine & conflict”.

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

A widespread data-sharing program with ICE supports local and state budgets nationwide—even in so-called sanctuary cities and states that forbid certain law enforcement cooperation and information sharing with ICE.
This Bay Area County Says It Cut Ties with ICE. This Program Says Otherwise.
A widespread data-sharing program highlights financial ties between local police and immigration enforcement—and how even sanctuary jurisdictions still feed “the deportation machine.”

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds —  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

Everyone who remains in his circles is complicit.

As a protest optics nerd love about the inflatables is how much they visually disrupt and pull focus from the fascist shock imagery Noem & Miller are trying to create.

Svitlana’s 7-year-old son, Makar, was killed by a Russian attack on Zaporizhzhia last night.

Makar's dad returned from Russian captivity this spring, after being held for three years. He is badly injured, doctors are fighting for his life.

My heard breaks for this family.

Not only that: he believes that THOSE, might be the Antichrist. Is Thiel perhaps one of those crazy asylum seekers who escaped the asylum in some fairy tale land with Hannibal Lecter in order to invade USA?
