Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen, was arrested and detained by ICE. She was held for TWO DAYS.
ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion.
This cannot continue happening. ICE needs to leave.

If Canadians, travelling domestically, want to use the "good" security line at the airport, they need a NEXUS card, even if they aren't going to the US. And they need the blessing of Donald Trump's Homeland Security apparatus to get one. I'm calling on Canada to end this absurdity. #Canada #NEXUS

Not everyone believed me when I wrote that Trump wants Greenland becuase it would make him feel important, but that's what he told the NYT:
When asked why he needed to possess the territory, he said: “Because that’s what I feel is psychologically needed for success"

Can someone show this to Mark Carney?
X ceased being a public square years ago, and over the last month, it’s degraded even further.
A platform that enables the creation non-consensual sexualised images of women and children cannot be treated as neutral ground - and governments choosing to stay are endorsing it.
Enough is enough.

Staying on X is an Endorsement - and It's Unforgivable
The UK government cannot claim to protect women and children while continuing to post on a platform that enables their abuse.

The gun should have never come out at all. First rule of gun safety is never even AIM a gun, let alone fire, unless you intend to kill. That means even in the general direction of anyone. This isn't a James Bond movie. People have a chance of dying any time a gun is involved regardless of intent.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.
This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

Their messaging is so fucking incoherent. Maduro was an illegitimate leader who lost in 2024, which is why we're replacing him with his VP instead of the person who won in 2024. We did this to stop fentanyl, which is why he's indicted for cocaine.
We're also occupying Venezuela via Zoom call.
