Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

Got buried in the news this weekend, but President Jesus said the F word on CNN at like 2pm in the afternoon. The next day he posted a poop-filled scat video, but tell Me more about the dignity of the office of the presidency.

The person leading an actual ‘Hate America' rally every day is you, Mike Johnson

Opinion: Instead of kindness, he performs random acts of hate. Each time he invokes hate, he infects others with the same malice, writes John Casey.

Criminals protect their own.

A tweet from Rep. Don Beyer reads: “George Santos pleaded guilty to identity theft and wire fraud, a small part of his lying and stealing that really hurt people. Trump says it plainly: crimes don’t count if you ‘vote Republican.’ Just like his pardons of those who violently attacked police. Naked corruption.” Below is a retweeted post from Juliegrace Brufke that says: “🚨 President Trump has commuted @MrSantosNY.”

Just had a conversation with a nice French couple who said the problem with American protests is that we schedule them one by one instead of showing up every night until the change happens.

American citizens have been seized, detained, and brutalized by ICE.

Not illegal immigrants. Not foreigners. Americans, at least 170 of them.

If it can happen to them, it can happen to any of us.

This is fascism.

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...

Hey @govpritzker.illinois.gov, you need to do something about these ISP goons attacking protesters like @katmabu.bsky.social.

Police escalated the situation here in Broadview incredibly quickly. Saw multiple brutal arrests. ISP jabbing protesters with their batons like battering rams.

Here ISP lifts @katmabu.bsky.social by her feet to flip her over a concrete barrier.
