This is a gift. Thank you to @siembranc.bsky.social for sharing this new toolkit with what they did when Border Patrol showed up in NC: docs.google.com/document/d/1... - share far and wide especially with our comrades in MN and LA (New Orleans esp).

New Orleans has recently achieved historic lows in crime, with certain metrics reaching levels not seen since the early 1970s or even the 60s.

The National Guard has become just a tool of a fascist regime.

So, in other words, they have a 5,000 person detention center sales quota to fill their private prisons.

Which means, New Orleans will see a repeat of what happened in Chicago where long standing residents and non criminals will be swept up in their quota sweeps + legal green card holders.

Once again, Pete Hegseth’s poor judgment is confirmed — the Pentagon’s SignalGate review found he blatantly violated military regulations.

Meanwhile, Hakeem Jeffries showed yet again he’s not ready to rise to the occasion, and his leadership needs to be contested when the time comes.

This is *exactly* the same phrasing as the management used @qmul.bsky.social.

This is work that has been withdrawn as part of legal industrial action. Management is demanding staff undoes their own industrial action and performs the work they have not been paid for, on top of their existing work.

Dimon on why JPMorgan Chase is not funding WH Ballroom:
We have an issue, which is anything we do, since we do a lot of contracts with governments here and around the world, we have to be very careful how anything is perceived, and also how the next DOJ is going to deal with it.

This is why military service members should refuse to follow illegal orders. Because when the shit hits the fan, Trunp and Hegseth will deny everything and blame you. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
Reporter: Does the administration deny that that second strike happened or did it happen and the administration denies that Hegseth gave the order

In Disney's desire to become everything, Disney as a brand will mean nothing.

(Which I would make the argument, is sorta where Netflix is - a content pipe that ultimately has IP but means nothing.)

Do you know someone who is unconvinced about the fact that we need to do something about school shootings beyond "thoughts and prayers"?

Show them All the Empty Rooms, a documentary on Netflix. It is only 35 minutes.

It is heartbreaking and heartbreakingly necessary.
