Flávio Bolsonaro had his passport confiscated by the Brazilian fed police as his brother Eduardo told him to flee to the US. He is tied to paramilitary gangs, is being investigated & lost his legislative immunity when he left the Senate to run for president. paydayreport.com/brazilian-fe...

People yapping about the profile Amazon has concocted based on their purchases. WTF. No one should be buying from Amazon. FFS people, stop feeding the billionaires.

9/11 victim Michael Massaroli’s son: "You do my dad's legacy & the legacy of all victims no honor using this tragedy to spread hate. I've had to spend 25 years seeing people use it to hate on our Muslim brothers & sisters, people who don't look like them."

Things I was frightened of as a child: Being flushed down the toilet (thanks big sisters) The flying monkeys in the wizard of Oz The whatever it was hiding in our basement cold room, the source of many instances of falling up the stairs

A dire warning, billionaire criminal Musk has set up a scheme in the form of a website votesafe.org in order to steal voter information. Never click on the link and please share this everywhere so others won’t fall prey to it like so many others.

Americans hear "51st state" as Trump trolling. Canadians hear it as an existential threat to their sovereignty. That gap in perception is why Carney can't afford to look conciliatory, even if the economics of retaliation don't add up. This isn't just a trade war anymore.

Major earthquake in Colombia this morning affecting my city where 20 buildings have collapsed. Maybe our recently installed ultra right president will be distracted from his campaign of revenge against progressives. Fuerza Colombia.

Had to evacuate my local grocery store running (to be honest, at a sedate jog). Aftershock. Heartbreaking to see the fear and trauma on my fellow shopper’s faces which I’m sure my face mirrored.

Mamdani makes billionaire babies show the world how greedy they are and the working class are finally beginning to experience fairness. What’s not to like? Corporate owned media (billionaires) is working overtime to spin lies about him, endangering his entire family. Are people waking up yet?

The most important thing to remember about Trump’s press conference last night is that the war in Iran is still out of control, gas prices are still through the roof, and the administration is still hiding the Epstein files from the American people.
