AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

NEW JERSEY — bonkers… the husband of an ICE agent uses her marked car to pretend to be Homeland Security and respond to a call HE MADE HIMSELF… with a gun and sirens and everything.

“Have you brought the list?”
“I have, O Great One.”
“Has it been checked twice?”
“Of course, sir”
“Excellent.”
“Do you require anything further?”
“Bring me an elf, I’m famished.”

Secretary Noem has lied to the press, to Congress, and the American people.

Enough. We demand justice and accountability.

I spoke to the leader of a doxing-for-hire group who showed me how it took just minutes for them to get sensitive personal data from Big Tech companies—with virtually no pushback

Where are Dem leaders speaking clearly that there is more and more lethal right wing violence than left wing violence. This case need to be made loudly. Lots of evidence - start with Grok

No one is safe. Fear is the point.
Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.

She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

This exposé is breathtaking. Witkoff and Kushner do not just have conflicts of interest - thy are deeply woven into a web of Russian influence peddling by "investments". Money, personal ties and geopolitics have become indistinguishable.

Being among the first interrogated and ultimately fired by DOGE, I certainly felt we were facing the business end of a right-wing conspiracy theory 🧵
DOGE was not a money-saving effort. It was an effort to chase down and prove right-wing conspiracy theories. They went after USAID to prove conspiracy theories about foreign aid. Then they went after SSA to, again, pursue conspiracy theories about Dems paying "illegals" to vote. 1/2
All DOGE accomplished was purging critical government staff, handing private data to outsiders, and sentencing thousands in developing countries to death by gutting USAID.

I don’t say this lightly: if there were any justice in this world, the people responsible for this devastation would be in jail

The harm that ICE is committing every day is immeasurable. Generational trauma. I survived a home invasion by a masked man when I was 9 yrs old and the images of these masked, armed men is triggering as fuck.
After 48 days, 3 pieces from the Houston Chronicle editorial board, requests for comment from others — like TBW — legal work by multiple attorneys and the advocacy organization FIEL, city council meetings, press conferences, and intercessions from Rep. Al Green, Garcia’s son was finally released.

Featured story: Weeks after a transphobic attack, dozens of trans, nonbinary, and gender-nonconforming folks gathered on the “free side” of Austin’s Barton Springs to swim, celebrate, and fearlessly take up space.

@kitoconnell.com was there to witness this moment of queer joy and resilience...

Following a transphobic incident earlier this year, community members gathered to "protect trans joy."

Interesting development.

Can we also make sure the initial primary states reflect the diversity of our party? In other words, not Iowa or New Hampshire!

If only Americans had someone on the WH looking out for their best interests.

Also, Republicans have NEVER been good for Americans; NEVER been fiscally conservative OR responsible.

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.
