Micro nazi from the land of formerly free speech, Bovino says if you call federal agents “kidnappers” or “Gestapo,” there will be “consequences.”

In MN:

"Have yall not learned from the past couple days?"

Lady holding phone asks what lesson?

Then the gets smacked by the agent.

What lesson are we supposed to learn? Is that a threat?

ICE and CBP are acting as if protesting and observing civilians have weapons and need to be searched.

🚨 CDC supervisors are instructing employees with disabilities to email their *personal medical records directly to the CDC Chief Operating Officer*, Lynda Chapman, to obtain temporary telework -- because the formal reasonable accommodation system is overwhelmed.

Yes. Really. 🧵⬇️
As HHS restricts telework, CDC asks employees to ‘bypass’ reasonable accommodation process
Multiple CDC supervisors are raising concerns that a new HHS reasonable accommodation policy conflicts with federal disability law.

@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high.

This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.

Since we can’t ever expect Mike Johnson to do the right thing, we’re forcing a vote on extending ACA tax credits. And we only need four more members to sign the petition to make it happen.

Help us move the needle!

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Long video, but worth the full watch. It covers Peter Thiel’s journey, showing how much control he has and the danger he poses.

“That moment gave away what Peter Thiel really is: a greedy, selfish person who wants to own the world and will invent any fantasy he can possibly think of to justify it.”

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.

📌 Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.
