Without social media, I probably would have never seen Ernie Anastos say "keep fucking that chicken!" and the reaction of his co-anchor on live TV. And my life would definitely be worse.

so why aren't you mobilizing a response instead of talking to tv cameras

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

It's kind of funny and sad to see how meaningless Trump non-sequiturs like "there are those who make claims" have entered our routine political dialogue.

I'm sorry, I meant to say protesters not officers. Never mind.

????? Stupid me, I thought the state police was an executive agency and that the governor was the chief executive.

Broadview protester here. I've been disgusted that it hasn't gotten more attention. Please tell your followers to give him a follow on Instagram: www.instagram.com/rev.davidblack

And please cover this now that it is finally getting attention, @nytimes.com @washingtonpost.com @chicagotribune.com!

These people are just fucking animals. That's all there is to it. And a large section of our society thinks it's terrific.

A scary incident occurred at the Jay St Metrotech Station when a track fire caused the station to fill with smoke.

The @fdny.bsky.social response was delayed due to illegally parked vehicles on Jay St. They couldn't even access the curb due to @nypdnews.bsky.social vehicles parked at a bus stop.

Describing what we are all seeing is cool I guess. I still want to know what our elected leaders are going to DO.

I agree with all the rest of what you're saying, but this part might actually be true.

Thank you Jason. Rupar provides an invaluable service by providing these videos, but he often misrepresents them in his written summary. And people often don't watch the video.

Then why did you give him more power to lord over D.C.?

And you're muted like the Irish shitbird you're caring. Fuck off and die, racists.

You're a troll whose "activism" is acting tough behind your anonymity while thousands of jews along with our fellow righteous humans are on the front lines acting to stop a genocide. If you participated in life off of your couch, you'd see these things clearly. But your loneliness breeds bigotry.

So the attack on a Manchester synagogue was not antisemitic. Got it.
The vast majority who stand for human rights and oppose israel's genocide in Gaza know how to do so without engaging in bigotry and antisemitism. But there are always online shitbirds who get a kick from flouting human decency.
