Breaking NBC:
Family members of two Trinidadian men who were killed in a U.S. boat strike in October have sued the U.S. government — accusing it of wrongful death and extrajudicial killings.
The lawsuit is the first of its kind to be filed against the Trump admin.

Chancers, hooligans, vandals, and idiots - who think they're the smartest people in the room.
🎵I think I’ve seen this film before, and I didn’t like the ending…🎶
The people who broke our country are the same people Nigel Farage is now relying on to fix it.
It couldn’t be clearer: Reform UK are simply the Conservatives with a new logo.

Are equivalent statistics available for the UK!
Same in the UK, probably getting worse with the disappearance of ‘intellectual’ Tories & Reform’s glorification of pig ignorance. I never know how to articulate this without making the problem worse! (As demonstrated above.)

Word is that ICE has booked 100 rooms at the Milwaukee Hilton. This isn't the first time Hilton has rented a bloc of rooms to them. People who live anywhere near Milwaukee, especially those who own drums or bagpipes, you know what to do. And boycott Hilton for enabling and profiting off of fascism.

Suella Braverman becomes the latest Tory MP to jump ship and join Reform UK. Does her defection damage the Conservatives – or is it Nigel Farage who should be worried?

Just Elon Musk perpetuating the lie about Hitler being a socialist. Surprised he doesn't realise that Hitler just included the word in the party name to do exactly what I do - fool the plebs into thinking you give a shit about them.

Across America and the world, people are realizing it’s not possible to appease America’s dictator.
The only way to deal with him is to stand up to him — and the only way to stand up to him is by joining together against him.
It's time for a massive general strike across the country.

Things are so bad that the Minnesota prison system has had to launch a website specifically to combat DHS lies. The first major release from DOC officials suggests Gregory Bovino outright lied about the target of the Border Patrol operation during which agents shot and killed Alex Pretti.
