Ohio is next, September 29th is when the law goes into effect.

Bluesky @bsky.app · Aug 22

Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users.

While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.

We are in dire need of money because of the low prices and to buy food for my children. I have no source of income other than my campaign. Today we need $70 to buy some supplies such as firewood, rice, sorghum, clean water and ghee.

The amount of sniffing/sniffling Trump is doing through this speech in the illegal state of Israel right now?

It sounds like he snorted all the snow on Mount Everest to stay awake for this trip. He is going to crash so hard when this shit wears off.

Mali has announced that US nationals visiting the West African country will be required to post a bond of up to $10,000 (£7,500) for business and tourist visas, in response to a similar requirement the Trump administration has imposed on its citizens.

Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members.

They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

I had a lot of convos with people who said they were sympathetic, but Defund the Police was a "bad slogan". I told them it wasn't a slogan. It was an answer. It was an answer to the constant question "what can we do to actually lower crime and make our neighborhood's safer?"

Anyway. Here we are.

States report shit to the CDC and the CDC synthesizes that into a heads-up report.

Firing a good chunk of the staff who put that together is essentially blinding the country on public health. Trump has hated it since 2020 because they published stuff (the truth) contrary to what he was saying

For some context the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly report in addition to being just a good read, to quote wikipedia, "is the main vehicle for publishing public health information and recommendations that have been received by the CDC from state health departments. "

I'm at the scene where ICE abducted multiple people from Lincoln and Foster this morning.

A WGN producer was among the people taken, allegedly because she was among a group of bystanders who tried to intervene. ICE agents hit this car while making their getaway.

the idea that the only way we can have a primary is to run a 77 year old career politician against a newcomer is a sign of a tragically unimaginative politics

They are not planning "a violent crackdown" on 10.18. What they are doing is sending a signal to their shock troops to try to cause havoc. But those shock troops will be vastly outnumbered. Go out and protest freely. Do not be cowed.

Do you really have any rights if they are openly saying they will just make up reasons to detain you?

thematthill.bsky.social @thematthill.bsky.social · 5d

Wow. Greg Bovino admits on camera that his agents can detain people if you look scared, change your demeanor, or grip a steering wheel too tight.

As his unmasked agents walk around with large guns to scare you, they may arrest you just for that — even if you're a U.S. citizen.
