These type of people are abusers, and anyone who’s ever survived and escaped an abuser are all too familiar with the behavior and patterns. These abusers can shove their gaslighting where the sun don’t shine.
The lies of this administration.

They murder people. Then blame the victim.

But I guess that’s not a new thing for these type of people in this administration.

Don’t let this White House lie to you. Believe what you see.

Alex Pretti was trying to help a woman off the ground. Then immigration agents tackled, shot, and killed him.

It’s time for them to get the hell out of MN.

ICE’s actions tear families apart, intimidate communities, & undermine the conditions that make education, research, healthcare, & public trust possible.

We’re calling on scientists to join the general anti-ICE strike in Minnesota on January 23rd.

I'm listening to Carney's speech and - okay nothing in this is *wrong* or nothing we don't know. It's just that Canada is saying "yeah, we benefitted from the fiction of the US rule of law, it's over" and I was not expecting that so blatantly said.

And that can mean making sure that the long arc of history does indeed bend back toward justice.

Prison. May those who deserve it go their kicking and screaming.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today.

Back then they called those who fought for Britain loyalists. Kind of what Stumpy wants now: unquestioning loyalists.

She can give him the medal, but that still doesn’t make him a winner, which Nobel organizers have said. Wonder if he’s going to melt it down for another toilet.

Hell yeah, Minnesota.
We are at the “Minnesotans are spray painting their broiler pans for body armor” stage of the fight
@statuscoupnews.bsky.social interviewing this woman in Minneapolis right now who said she came out of her home, wearing whatever she could grab to protect herself from ICE agents. You do what you can, with what you got.

I miss old CNN. When there were more journalists and bureaus and fewer round tables with pundits, but if they’re going to do the later, they need to cut loose anyone of any camp who can’t look at video or evidence and agree on basic facts.

And the Dark Enlightenment, more like Unlightenment or Dork Enlightenment.

Give me an actual Enlightenment 2.0 that improves upon the first one, like with more humanism, science and progress.
F*** Curtis Yarvin, his “Dark Enlightenment” bullsh*t and all the other whacked-out tech bruhs. I read sci-fi, too, but you don’t see me fantasizng about ending democracy and starting little city-states where I can preside as a monarch.
