This is ... GREAT. Wow. This jackass conflates Netanyahu's decades-long partnership with Hamas in order to allow Israel to annex the West Bank for his rightwing-supporter settlers.

I'm not Israeli, but I AM Jewish. Genocide making Israel safer for the Jewish people? Go fuck yourself, Witkoff.

Word on the street is that Trump intentionally targeted China with 100% tariffs so Barron could make hundreds of millions in crypto on a short trade.

It worked.

Funny how the guy who is deporting brown people is ok with helping Argentina and training Qatari soldiers. Weird what flattery and free planes can buy you. 🙄

So ICE does a U-turn and hits a car with a woman headed to work. They continue driving while people scream” hit and run.”

They stop & run back to her with weapons drawn (the US citizen that was just hit by an unknown car) and masked goons rip her out of her car to arrest her.

Watch the video. 🤬🤬🤬

“YOU hit HER.”

CHICAGO - Trump’s ICE goons ram into a passing car after snatching someone, then brutally drag the female driver of the car they hit out of her car with guns drawn and arrest her too. (Her brother says she’s a citizen)

This is in my neighborhood.

The statute that he cites, 18 USC 111, only applies to people who “forcibly” interfere. He knows it, and every American who gets threatened like that should know it.

New — Video shared with me shows ICE officers in DC detaining a man on Friday.

Bystander filming asks man for his name. ICE agent lies and says he’s not allowed to speak to him “by law” and another says “We’ve arrested American citizens for being too close…If he gets any closer, put him in cuffs.”

I’m not sure how many have read about the hardcore undocumented immigrant crackdown in Alabama back in 2011.

It was an epic failure. They lost tons of food and it was a huge income loss for Alabama.

The Trump administration on Saturday scrambled to rescind layoffs of hundreds of CDC scientists who were mistakenly fired on Friday night in what appeared to be a substantial procedural lapse.

I don't know if there's such a thing as a "world cyberwar" but I think we are in one? and the US is determined to lose it. 🧵

Today the admin is mass-firing the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the nation's cybersecurity protection across all levels of government.

Jared is in Israel for exactly every reason stated. I guarantee he has plans already made into Blueprints for his next Trump International. Would not surprise me if it was the first building completed in place of a hospital or school. Priorities you know.

Epidemic? Pandemic? You're not going to know about it before it hits or what to do when it hits, because this regime keeps ousting people who are smart and know stuff, and keeping the loyal doofuses.

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.
