A few thousand people gathered for Donald Trump's fascist military parade. Many millions assembled to oppose it.

Trump's core of support is comprised chiefly of stay-at-home racists and mercenaries who hurt people for pay.

Those who act according to their consciences overwhelmingly oppose him.
Emerging figures suggest the glut of protests across the country against Trump’s presidency marked one of the largest single days of demonstrations in U.S. history.

"Serial rapist's treatment of his victims is once again under scrutiny". See how silly that sounds, L.A. Times? There's video of them shooting journalists in the back without warning, deliberately. The objective truth is that police in L.A. are targeting and assaulting press.

Apparently, because it’s 2020 again, I need to start a thread on police violence targeting journalists in the US.

So, here we go:

Spraying the ICE agents with paint using a repurposed fire extinguisher appears to be a turning point in this confrontation in Tucson today. Same tactic worked well against around thirty cops at a Montreal protest in Nov. 2024, blinding at least one and forcing a whole unit to retreat down an alley.

Between the fires and these protests, I hope this year teaches everyone that most of the shit talking you hear about California and more specifically, LA, comes from racists and gentrifying transplants. Most people love living here and would do anything to protect it.

every tough guy wants to dress like a soldier and be treated like a soldier. none of them want to spend days shitting themselves in a shipping crate while someone fires rockets at them in the distance

this isn't exactly what they deserve but it's pretty funny
"Nearly a dozen immigration officers and eight deportees are sick and stranded in a metal shipping container in the searing-hot East African nation of Djibouti, where they face the constant threat of malaria and rocket attacks from nearby Yemen"

This story is bonkers.

Don’t ever tell me that Christians support the GOP. There is nothing Christian or Christ-like about this. Just plain old cruelty and callousness:

Excellent interview. Some key points were the importance of establishing clear priorities (including deciding, rather than assuming away, the resulting tradeoffs) and the utility for the US of Canadian rather than European/Asian comparisons. Two items I’d be interested to hear more on:
Today on Volts: I talk with transit guru @humantransit.bsky.social about the state of public transit in the US -- which systems have recovered from Covid & which face a fiscal cliff; the best way to balance coverage & frequency; the tech bro fantasy of transit without strangers; bus myths; & more.
How is public transit doing in the US?
From Canada’s bus abundance to tech-bro transit fantasies, Jarrett Walker dismantles the myths and shows what an effective system really looks like.
