I like to imagine that at some point Dick Cheney said, "A socialist Muslim mayor of New York city? Over My Dead body!"

Yeah, I like the election turnout and outcome last night but it's tempered by remembering that we already did the resistance thing once, and then we put him right back.

I don't trust us

Bill Gates saying, "Let's listen to the consensus of climate scientists, here's some money" good.

Bill Gates saying "You know, I think I know better than the climate scientists, and I'm a billionaire" not good.

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.

They’ve had their necks kneeled on.

They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.

At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.

The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

I am certainly no seasoned strategist but I am a little skeptical of the political wisdom behind building a giant golden ballroom and sharing a dozen photos of a renovated marble bathroom at the very moment that millions of people are losing access to healthcare and food.

Utopia has long been within our grasp but we won't allow it for ourselves out of fear that we might share it with someone we think doesn't deserve it.

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

If you have it please donate cash to the food banks. $10 in their hands will feed more people than the $10 worth of canned goods you can buy for retail prices. Also check on your elders. Many of them will not admit they rely on these programs so grocery gift cards or a surprise bag of staples

Hofstetter has really stepped up.
He's always BEEN outspoken and progressive but he's turned it all the way up (TO 11!) in response to our current fascism and I appreciate him for it.

To the craven "comedians" who are STILL not speaking up: The manager at the Chicago Laugh Factory was arrested by ICE. They filed no charges, he's a US citizen, and his family doesn't know where he is.

They are coming for all of us. Grow a fucking spine and say something while you still can.

You accuse "the establishment" of attacking you because people want to know why you have a Nazi tattoo? What a bullshit attempt at an apology.

We’ve known for a while but this makes it official: Trump is a shit-poster.

A news headline reads: “Trump Shares AI Video of Feces-Dropping Jet on ‘No Kings’ Protesters.” The subheadline says that President Donald Trump posted an AI-generated video on Truth Social depicting himself as “King Trump,” piloting a jet that drops sludge resembling feces on crowds at nationwide “No Kings” rallies protesting his policies.

Oak Park resident Scott Sakiyama reports feds pointed weapons at him across from an elementary school today. They then arrested him and took him to Broadview. While in custody, he saw agents texting in a group chat called "Chiraq Team 2."

Full testimony: www.facebook.com/share/p/1GqB...

This morning masked ICE agents pulled me out of my car at gun-point, threw me in the back of a van and took me to their facility in Broadview. I had been following the van down Harvard honking my horn and blowing a whistle to alert the community that ICE was in the neighborhood.

Just across from Lincoln elementary school, where my daughter is in second grade, they jumped out of their van with guns drawn and threatened to smash my windows.

They removed me from my car and drove me to Broadview.

They tried to determine if I was an American citizen (I am). After sitting handcuffed in the van for about 30 minutes, they issued me a citation for "impeding" them, claiming I cut them off (which is not true). They then drove me back to my car. While in their van, I could see they were receiving text messages that were part of a group chat called "Chiraq Team 2." They also stated they also spoke to someone on their phone saying they were going to meet someone else near where they were dropping me off, and that they were going to proceed to conduct enforcement activities with that person.

NBC just gutted the very teams that gave marginalized voices a seat at the table—then called it “restructuring.”

The cuts:

📌NBC BLK (Black community coverage)

📌NBC Latino (Latino community coverage)

📌NBC Asian America (Asian American community coverage)

📌NBC Out (LGBTQ+ community coverage)

When I was a kid I wondered what the adults did after we went to bed.
Now I'm an adult making late night stovetop s'mores.
So, pretty much exactly what I figured.
