So true. People who believe this are used to white privilege allowing them to "convince" the cops of their innocence. They can't even imagine having to use civil liberties to defend themselves. "It'd never happen" they think, which makes them unlikely to defend the constitution for self or other.

The GOP/Confederacy/MAGA has launched a new study aimed at estimating the IQ of the American public!

“Netanyahu explicitly cites how the U.S. media has served as a compliant springboard, a vessel for his influence operation on, if not the populace, at least the consultants and members of Congress who engage with cable news more than their actual constituents.” www.rawstory.com/israel-26778...?

We have a criminal president.

@nytimes.com @latimes.com @chicagotribune.com @washingtonpost.com @mercurynews.com Don't you think you should be making the observation that the emperor has no clothes?? Every story should include: "Trump is unfit for office and should be removed."

Unless you think this kind of thing would be "ok" in the U.S. please get up off the couch, join a local resistance organization that's networked with others, donate to legal orgs defending immigrants, the Constitution, and democracy. Do it now.

@nytimes.com @mercurynews.com @washingtonpost.com @latimes.com @cnn.com @nbcnews.com Every article about trump should start with "Trump is unfit for office and should be removed." Why would any news org allow him to outlast their commitment to the people of the U.S.?

Victory: a federal court ruled today that voting rights groups can continue their challenge to President Trump’s executive order restricting mail voting. The court reiterated, “The President plays no role in the regulation of elections” and that his mandate to USPS is unconstitutional.

I don't know who made this but it cracked me up. Just a little humor for chaotic times. 😊

@jaketapper.bsky.social Is this your career niche? Attacking the Bidens while letting the Trumps just cavort around ripping off the American taxpayers and using their connections to raise money from rich people around the world? Pick a side. Or is that it?

The trump regime wants to build an ICE detention camp in Gilroy, CA. We already know that confining people without due process based on their nation of origin or their ethnicity/race is wrong!! This is the WWII concentration camp at Amache, CO which held my dad as a California public h.s. student.

Great grassroots advancement! When there is a need that is not being addressed, the grassroots will rise up! This united effort is an inspiring and hopeful event. May it win many allies and help change the balance of power in the favor of humanity, peace, and justice for Palestinians.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Impeach and lay the foundations for the 25th amendment removal. Please do everything.

Who knows, but I suspect that the problem may not be individual SW incompetence but it may be due to policy that emphasized family reunification too strongly and didn't institutionalize due diligence for critiquing the qualifications of family members.

@nytimes.com @latimes.com @washingtonpost.com @chicagotribune.com @mercurynews.com Have you noticed the dysfunction and abnormality? Why in the world would you normalize this or treat it as only a secondary problem? Why aren't you calling for 25th amendment and impeachment?

Black women have the highest maternal mortality rate among all racial groups in the U.S. During Black Maternal Health Week, let us refocus on how we can provide resources and rights that help Black mothers thrive before, during, and after pregnancy. We must pass the #Momnibus

There should never be taxpayer support for institutions dedicated to the veneration of chattel slavery. What took them so long? Keep moving forward. There is no place at the table for white supremacists who want the table all to themselves in blatant denial of the social contract.

May Day is a structure test for the strength of the pro-democracy movement. It is more than showing up on a Saturday. @ezralevin.bsky.social and @katiephang.bsky.social talked about the upcoming day of economic disruption.

No matter where you live, there’s an Indivisible group near you that’s organizing the pro-democracy majority to reclaim its power: indivisible.org/get-involved/find-a-group/

Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations: Alphabet: 8.01% AT&T: 4.6% Meta: 3.57% General Motors: 3.09% Amazon: 1.37% Exxon Mobil: 1.31% Disney: -1.57% CVS Health: -3.88% Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5% This is what a rigged system looks like.

My friend @rokhanna.bsky.social is absolutely right. When the President of the United States threatens genocide against millions of innocent people, Democratic leadership should stand in clear moral opposition — not hide behind procedure.

Let's get some Senators on this list. Where are the major newspapers' editorials calling for removal?

People who excuse trump for everything/anything: "well, boys will be boys," or "grifters will be grifters," or "pedophiles will be pedophiles." As if trump is in a class by himself and can't be held accountable to social, political, and moral norms. We're supposed to laugh it off. No thanks.

@mercurynews.com Why are you not calling for the 25th amendment removal of criminal, genocidal, out-of-control POTUS Trump? Cat got your tongue? How much is too much? Got high tolerance for tyranny?

Yeah, why should the president be shielded from accountability? Why should the president claim that his unnecessary, pointless war means that the government cannot afford to pay for childcare? Do the commandments say Christians must go along with this and take leadership from a murderous liar?

Omg! Huge shoutout to San Francisco, CA! Ocean Beach, you crushed it! 🌊

Trump claims the Iranians called him first.

Hello?

AOC: They wanted to issue this statement as though we’re just going after these 30-year-old men on Medicaid playing video games in their basement, right? This was the narrative that we heard. First of all, I think everyone should have healthcare in America, regardless of who you are

"Canada cannot claim to defend human rights while exporting armoured vehicles that will be used to terrorize communities”: @greenpeaceca.bsky.social calls on MPs to halt export of armoured vehicles to U.S. immigration agency ICE www.greenpeace.org/canada/en/pr...

Cartoon by Sutton.

People who have been provided with guns and federal authority who are acting out a video game and harming people must be held accountable. The hiring and supervising persons must also be held accountable. Charge those suckers! Impeach Noem! Charge her, too!

This should not be hard to understand. If we created a system, we should be able and willing to dismantle it when it proves that it cannot stop itself from committing atrocities.

When a door closes, a window opens

Abolishing ICE is the most reasonable, logical, and effective thing to do. There is no training people who were recruited via fascistic promises that they would have the opportunity to brutalize immigrants.

The ICE thugs drew their GUNS on the #Minnesota off-duty cop - a woman of color. The ICE goons held her at gunpoint before finding out she's a cop & then the ICE thugs walked away - like cowards do - without apologizing to her. bsky.app/profile/atru...
