This is the fundamental problem, too many white people don't see what's happening as an issue that effects them, just like most Germans under the NAZIs until it was too late
I think not enough white people are taking the voting rights issues seriously enough. They are killing people and then offering to stop killing if the state gives up the voter registration data. This should be setting off massive alarms for EVERYONE. (I’m looking at you, white people.)

This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for “illegals trying to vote.”

My take is you make Hamas disarmament contingent on Israeli recognition of Palestine and withdraw all forces from around it
Gaza does not need another phase or “Board.” Gaza needs legal redress for an Israeli system of cruelty. It must be granted unimpeded ingress and egress by land, sea, and air. Gaza must not be condemned to survive as a managed humanitarian dependency, rationed by aid and policed by donors.

The Senate bill is written by GOPers and can be passed without Dem support if necessary, so Dems are trying to get as many reforms in as they can, since real reforms, funding cuts, and #AbolishICE cannot be achieved right now
The Senate bill is rooted in the idea that we just need to get BP/ICE "back to" only terrorizing people we deem worthy of being terrorized, and not White people. The exact problematic understanding people have been trying to warn against... While a lot of White people insisted that concern was silly

It took 57+ Dem Senators & ~75+ Dem House for FDR to pass the New Deal, Social Security, & flip SCOTUS liberal for ~35 years. LBJ had nearly the same to pass CRA64, Medicare/caid, VRA, HEA, I&NA65, CRA68, & other Great Society Programs. Dems haven't had that much power since 1968
IF you ever get to vote again, vote purely Democrat. Only.
It's a two-party system. Either you vote for a Democrat, or you help the current Trump regime. Not voting helps Trump. Voting for a third party - any third party - is a wasted vote that helps Trump.
Vote only for Democrats, no excuses.

Fascists come for everyone eventually. First they come for Others, then they'll come for your Neighbors, and then no matter how truly you believe and how dedicated to their cause, if it serves them they'll come for you
So you might as well resist now while it's easy or you might not have a chance

Many TikTok users recently reported problems uploading videos, sudden drops to zero views, or posts getting stuck “under review.” Almost all of those complaints involved videos criticizing ICE or discussing the murder of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis.

They better start responding soon, or it will be too late. We are reaching the point where we will either fall into a facist dictatorship or stop facist takeover. They are struggling because the administration is acting beyond their control. They are acting just like Conservatives did with Hitler

This isn't about "training issues." The murderer who executed Renee Good has been with ICE for 10 years, and according to DHS, the murderer who executed Alex Pretti has been there for 8 years.
These aren't "new recruits," or officers that can be "retrained." ICE can't be reformed. Abolish ICE.

I'd say yes, except they knew it was being filmed by others and would be seen. I think they did it for the same reason that over 4,000 black people (EJI, 2015) were lynched, supremacist ideology. Hatred is a cancer that breaks minds. Pretti challenged their power and threatened their identity, 1/2
Does anyone get the feeling they unloaded ten shots to make sure Pretti could never live to tell the tale? Same with Renee Good. The first two shots were non-lethal. It was the third shot into her left temple from the side of the car that killed her, according to the autopsy.
Wow! This read-along of the NYT moment-by-moment leading to the murder of Alex Pretti should shake everyone awake. He was a Good Samaritan.
Agents fired at least ten shots in roughly five seconds. DHS and Pam Bondi claim Pretti approached them armed and intent on a “massacre.”

We had to put up with school shootings because "the 2nd Amendment"
But watch ICE eliminate the right to bear arms by executing anyone they find with a gun and to hell with the 2nd Amendment.
ICE will soon be killing citizens in their own homes because they're scared there might be a gun inside.

While he can't literally do it, just him announcing it would cause enough chaos & confusion to taint the vote & open it to challenges. We need to prepare for this, bc it will happen. One way states could calm chaos would be to mobilize and deploy the National Guard like in Minneapolis right now
He already wasn't going to hold elections. Yes, it's more obvious now, but it was always true. He was obsessed with his vote counts, insisted they rigged every election and already tried to overturn the results once. There aren't gonna be elections

This is bad story telling and design. If there's too much urgency and pressure to complete the main quest then side quests can be missed or skipped. And good side quests should be designed to work parallel with the main quest, so that, unless you missed them, there isn't excessive deviation from 1/3

Good reason to put solar panels on your house
Apparently our electricity bills are going through the roof and this is partly related to data centers that hog huge amounts of electricity to generate information. I, for one, feel hopping mad about this. The companies that are using the data centers should bear the cost.

Exactly, this is probably my biggest compliment about progressives and others on the Left. They will relentlessly criticize Dems, but for too many of them you'll hear barely a peep about what GOPers are doing or they'll just dismiss it. It's especially frustrating when they're lying
To those blaming Walz for not mobilizing the Guard, he did that six days ago. I have to say it's disturbing to see people angry at Walz instead of the government agents that just executed a man. As though we should all be experts about what to do when a secret police force invades an American city.
