Flock Safety and Texas Sheriff Claimed License Plate Search Was for a Missing Person. It Was an Abortion Investigation.

They searched 83,345 cameras to find the woman so they could arrest her and prosecute her self-managed abortion as a potential homicide.

Abbott is saying that removing rainbow 🌈 crosswalks & flags are because they’re political statement

New Rules?

Since the ordinance is about policing political statements, when such representations of Trump & Confederate ideology are found, file city, county, & state complaints

Zohran Mamdani didn’t hold back. His speech today on Letitia James’s indictment was 🔥 calling it exactly what it is: a political hit job meant to punish those who hold Trump accountable. “If justice can be weaponized against the just, then no one is safe.”

Ode to the Portland Frog

From the mist of the moss and the grey Oregon rain, There leaps a green hero to ease all the pain. My love for this frog is a powerful thing, for the justice and freedom his ribbit can bring. With a croak full of spirit and a firm little bound, he stands up to bigots who poison the ground. He's our small, squat defender, so brave and so fast, a symbol of hope that forever will last.

PM Carney owned the House!
PP tried to corner him on U.S. relations and the economy big mistake. Carney coolly reminded him “there is a thing called the private sector” while laying out Canada’s trade wins like a masterclass in leadership.

Trump lost the Nobel Peace Prize to a Latina woman and now he’s throwing a full-blown tantrum! Dean Withers at his best here! The Chairman of the Committee said they only give the award to people with courage and integrity. Let’s use some sense, Trump has neither!

Mr. Mamdani, accused President Trump of using “fascist tactics” to attack the “fabric of our democracy.” He stood shoulder to shoulder with other leading Democrats near Foley Square in Manhattan to defend Ms. James while criticizing the president.

Hatred has many roots. My difference is hated by you. Your difference is not hated by me. My difference is disagreement. A nuance supremacists must squash to maintain power and control.
