Hi. I’m Rachel.

My name is first on the website the North American far-right is using to target people they say “celebrated” Charlie Kirk’s death.

There’s just one problem: I never did that.

But the people sending me threats don’t seem to care.

Let me tell you, in my own words, what happened:

Show me your papers, Comrade
Police have set up a checkpoint and appear to be stopping every single car on 14th st NW, between W+V, here in northwest DC. Some cars are being pulled over after being stopped.

Some police are wearing “HSI police” vests (Homeland Security Investigations)

Pierre Poilievre (and, to be fair, most Canadian political pundits) may assume the 100,000 population Alberta riding of Battle River–Crowfoot is his guaranteed safe seat in the House of Commons—but @bonniecritchley.bsky.social says not so fast.

Threats of the militarization of cities—, including DC which has been fighting for self determination for generations, isn’t a “distraction”.

It’s a massive, giant, red trial balloon

For what an American president can do YOUR city if you feel like it.

I need people to wake up.
Another distraction from them files.
Eyes on D.C.-- Trump has dispatched FBI agents to start patrolling Washington D.C.--- and he is reportedly weighing sending in the National Guard:

Being in tech and having a single modicum of critical thinking is just screaming "this isn't what LLMs are designed for" over and over as people shove a bunch of word predictors into critical decision making processes because some glorified used car salesmen told them it would fix all their problems
Reporter: The FDA has a new AI tool that's intended to speed up drug approvals. But several FDA employees say the new AI helper is making up studies that do not exist. One FDA employee telling us, 'Anything that you don't have time to double check is unreliable. It hallucinates confidently'

Hunter Biden has a point. And a quite colorful one.

The fact that Donald Trump — after decades of ludicrous lies about his height, weight, and health — publicly trumpeted his illness on the very day his intimate birthday letter to Jeffrey Epstein was published is the equivalent of an admission of guilt. Nothing more, nothing less.

Huh. I just went over to see what sort of official pronouncements Donald Trump was making on the social media website he owns, and apparently I can no longer see that unless I create an account.

@knightcolumbia.org, I'm curious about whether this is legal?
Here is a little poll that surveyed Canadians recently about their willingness to defend our country from becoming the “51st state”… note that based on these results, somewhere near 1.4 million Canadians would become insurgents…

This occurred in Jenin, the same place where the IDF murdered journalist Shireen Abu Akleh.

If they're willing to murder a Palestinian-American journalist and fire on an international diplomatic delegation, you can imagine how dangerous the IDF is for actual Palestinians in Jenin (and everywhere).
!!!! NEW: Canada is summoning Israel's ambassador after the IDF shot at four Canadian diplomatic officials in Ramallah earlier today.

Canada is summoning its Israeli ambassador to demand answers after the IDF shot at our diplomats.

Meanwhile Trump ambushed the South African president with baseless claims of a “white genocide” — even as the U.S. arms a real genocide in Gaza.

We've also gotta talk about the Canada Post strike:

Indian chief was teaching his grandson about life. “A fight is going on inside me,” he told the young boy, “a fight between TWO WOLVES. One is evil, full of anger. The other is good, full of joy, peace, love.”
“Grandfather, which WOLF will win?” The old man smiled and simply said, “The ONE YOU FEED.

Linda McMahon wrote Harvard a letter to which they responded by noting areas that are in need of corrections and then posted it on social media.

Everyone should read every one of the posts in this thread.

Thank you Senator Murphy. 🎯
The Trump-Supreme Court battle is not really the crisis.

The crisis is here now. Trump is enacting an insidious coordinated attack on our institutions of democratic accountability, designed to crater democracy before next fall.

This morning I blocked someone who, in response to the FSU news, called for a study of *the women who raise shooters*. Not the role of masculinity in creating shooters (who are overwhelmingly men), not the role of fathers or even parents. Just women. The women responsible.
Interesting to go through the social media of the arsonist targeting Josh Shapiro.

People want a convenient way to categorize him and there is just no easy way to. He was very much a "both sides suck" guy.

But he does have one thing in common with those who engage in these acts: deep misogyny.

Bring back Kilmar Abrego García... NOW.

The Constitutional crisis all Americans fear is here. A battle between the executive and judicial branches is underway.

The Trump regime defiantly refused to meet another court-issued deadline in the case of Kilmar Abrego García.

Dismissed was a federal judge’s deadline to disclose steps…
