A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

🇪🇸🇺🇦 Spanish PM Sanchez:

"A US invasion of Greenland would make Putin the happiest man in the world. Why? Because it would legitimize his invasion of Ukraine. If the US were to use force in Greenland, it would be a fatal blow to NATO. Putin would have double reason to rejoice."

@warren.senate.gov I’ve seen your fundraising ad for the “democratic fight club”however the donations go to the DNC.
I will not support the DNC until they start supporting young progressive candidates over corporate centrists, stay out of primaries, denounce AIPAC and stop taking corporate bribes

Trump has:

- Illegally & unconstitutionally attacked Venezuela

- Provided Netanyahu with $12B in arms sales

- Given Argentina's president a $40B bailout

- Approved the sale of jets & tanks to Saudi Arabia

- Given Qatar an Air Force facility in Idaho

America first? Really?

Daily reminder that despite a law requiring the release of the Epstein Files and the fact the 🍊💩 ran promising the release of the files, they are still being hidden from us. Release the files now!!

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

Donald Trump’s approach to the world is not the isolationism that many of his supporters celebrated when he returned to office—it’s “a narcissistic form of unilateralism that says, loudly, I can do whatever I want, whenever and however I want to do it,” @sbg1.bsky.social writes.
Why Donald Trump Wants Greenland (and Everything Else)
There’s no Trump Doctrine, just a map of the world that the President wants to write his name on in big gold letters.

“They’re eating the pets”

Media should remind readers whenever it quotes JD Vance that he’s said he’s willing to “make up stories”.

“Nobody debates that” here is doing the same thing “it’s clear” did for Kristi Noem in her press conference. Power rhetoric in lieu of evidence. In group/out group.
JD Vance:

"You have a woman who aimed her car at a law enforcement officer and pressed on the accelerator - nobody debates that."

The video of the incident does not show that and a lot of people debate that.

Trump talking about giving each person in Greenland $100,000 in US taxpayer money is incredibly America First. And he keeps sending fundraising emails to his cult promising them $2,000 checks if they send him money. At this point you can only conclude they like being hustled.

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.

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"

The undressing is obviously the main story here, but when I had a look at replies from the Grok account, people were also asking for bondage and signs of violence. Musk is knowingly encouraging some very dark stuff.
Just saw this in LinkedIn for anyone interested in looking into Grok's production of CSAM and non-consensual sexualised imagery.
