You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Really good video breakdown of the shooting of Renee Good illustrating that yes, this was cold blooded murder by an ICE agent.

If the DEA had killed 80 innocent Americans in the course of apprehending one drug dealer, there would be riots. But we are so ghoulishly indifferent to the lives and humanity of people abroad that it's barely even part of the conversation.
A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

Americans won't be thrilled with me saying this, but it's probable that the Boston tea party followed a similar strategy from rich Bostonian businessmen. These "businessmen" did not want to pay taxes the UK needed to reinforce colonial troops defending against French incursions. Same old story.
Past is prologue.
In 1933, during the Great Depression, a group of wealthy businessmen tried to overthrow the US government and install a fascist dictator to protect their own interests.
And everything that led to it feels way too familiar right now.
This is not a history lesson, it’s a warning.

As a retired art teacher I so appreciate this take on AI "art",
Yesterday my 5th grader told me their teacher gave them an assignment:
write a description of their own secret garden (apparently they've been reading it)...that she would then feed into ChatGPT to make a picture of it
I hate this so much

In my mind the most pressing priority for America is a forensic and deep examination of election procedures and technology, in every state, with a focus on how tampering could be affected before, during & after polls close.
America needs to KNOW votes will be counted correctly when the time comes.

Pretty weird that these Republicans don’t seem to think there will be any voter backlash to stuff like this.
Almost like they don’t think they’ll actually face democratic accountability mechanisms.

Exclusive: The Trump administration is preparing a plan that will make it harder for older Americans to qualify for Social Security disability payments, part of an overhaul that could result in hundreds of thousands of people losing benefits.
