It’s been really hard to follow local elections ruins from overseas, I feel really out of the loop. I relied on my sister to help me vote, who lives in Kirikiriroa and has her youngins interests at heart, which now are my interests too.

But the Greens seemed to be celebrating in Wellington?

Imagining being at a party in 2032 and some guy says he was in ICE

Quickly, word circulates the party

Someone whose dad was taken teams up with a friends group who had their school raided

Ex-ICE guy just gets the shit beaten out of him

Welcome to the next decade of the USA

Really regret not going to that museum when I was there. Instead toured some rural regions still with bombs craters with “don’t step here - unexploded bombs” signs everywhere.

McCartyism really was a worldwide American-led genocide.

Unconstitutionally taking money that the law says must be spent on one purpose & using it for something else—when it's to establish personalist control over the FUCKING MILITARY—is about as dangerous a constitutional crisis/failure as you can imagine

Via: www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News.

A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.

If you kill ICE employees and throw their bodies in a ditch, you have done nothing wrong.

Imagine the burden of having to hide, for the rest of your life, that you worked for the MAGA Gestapo, because you know that plenty of perfectly ordinary people would probably straight up murder you for it and unceremoniously throw your body in a ditch then go on with their lives with zero guilt

I suspect one reason they hide their identities is to conceal past restraining orders and DV arrests.

I don’t think the govt is opening back up

This is the libertarian dream. Just plunder and collapse federal govt entirely.

They’ll be off to Argentina as soon as they get the slightest sniff of any kind of accountability

Are Americans really so gullible they can’t see the obvious play here?

The House and Senate want to vote to pay the military. But that would mean also exposing a House vote to release the Epstein files.

So Trump would rather steal the money from one part of the military (defunding it) to pay the troops just to keep the House closed & unable to vote.

Fits the facts.

That’s a lot of words that doesn’t include the most important three words we all want to hear you say:

“We’ll repeal it”

Until then I’m not interested in Labour’s spin.

Commit to repealing it or there’s no way in hell I’ll go near you with my votes.

I can commit to that right now.

The consensus opinion amongst freedom for Palestine protesters in London is that Tony Blair should be flying to the Hague and defending his own war crimes in a criminal trial, and he should not be allowed anywhere Palestine.

YES: A Wyoming librarian fired for refusing to pull LGBTQ books just won a $700,000 settlement for violation of her First Amendment rights. 👏 Let this be a warning to every censor-happy official in the country.

I wonder when they’re gonna start finding ICE mass graves

All these “we haven’t been able to contact dad for 3 weeks” stories are starting to pile up and look awfully 1930s

Making people afraid to be affiliated with antifascism—making people afraid to be associated with groups and people that actively oppose fascism—is some bleak shit.
