We just needed 12 more to vote No to stop this trojan-horse bill, because it takes 2/3 to pass under a suspension of the rules.

Too many were afraid to vote against the “KIDS Act” title, or didn’t know what the bill will really do, or just want government to have total control.

Detained by ICE on her way to Mass yesterday, Sr. Letty is reunited finally with Sr. Norma Pimental, Pope Francis used called Sr. Norma his “favorite nun.” Quite a moment that shows the human face of rounding up people randomly.

That time when an unarmed Iranian ship was invited to take part in an Indian naval exercise alongside the United States.
Its sailors were welcomed on land and paraded before Indian President Modi as a gesture of respect.
Then, at the last moment, the United States suddenly abruptly withdrew from the exercise,only to wait and torpedo the very ship it had just stood beside.

What followed was even more grotesque.
After attacking an unarmed vessel, the US refused to rescue the sailors it had blown into the sea, abandoning them to drown.
The grim work of recovering bodies was left to the Sri Lankan Navy.

This wasn’t warfare,it was treachery of the most disgraceful kind: an ambush carried out under the pretense of diplomacy, followed by a cold refusal to show even the most basic human decency to the dying.
It would represent a collapse of every norm that supposedly governs civilized conduct at sea.

And yet, instead of outrage, much of the American media response has been indifference or rationalization.
The bombing of a girls’ school is brushed aside; talk of carpet-bombing Tehran is floated as if it were just another policy option.
When atrocities are normalized and cruelty is laundered into “strategy,” the line between reporting and complicity begins to disappear......

I'm always for being open about mental health, but important context is that Kean, as a state rep, voted against the New Jersey Paid Sick Leave Act, which established 40 hours of sick leave for employees a year.

Kean just took *4 months* of paid sick leave.

This is a Trojan horse that will eliminate privacy on the internet.

Why not make devices just for kids if you want to protect them? Why KYC every single person on the internet?

Because this is about control, not children.

House looking to fuse the American and Israeli militaries in significant ways without a vote on the floor, just ramming it through tucked in the NDAA

Your Government is NOT Stopping.

Your Government is fully occupied by Zionists.

Your Government puts another country before America.

How much longer will Americans take this?

Few weeks ago, I found something mislabeled in a second hand shop. Turned out to be a box full of slides from Vietnam war (1968-1970). I managed to scan around 300. Here its a small selection of somebody's memories I bought for 5,99 🧵

An Israeli flag was raised and elevated to the same level as the American flag at the Great American Fair for the 250th anniversary of America’s independence.

Israel has nothing to do with the founding of America.

80 yıl boyunca her yıl 120 gün ve günde 24 saat 12.000 btu bir klimayı çalıştırırsanız ömrünüz boyunca doğaya yaptığınız co2 salınımı 100 ton olacaktır.

bir süperyat haftada 109 ton
bir özel jet yılda 810 ton
co2 salınımı yapar.

yani ömrünüz boyunca yazları terleyerek geçirirken bir milyardar sadece bir haftada sizin ömrünüz boyunca kaçındığınız zararı doğaya verebiliyor.

Creating a database that tracks the movements of hundreds of millions of people, and which the government can search at will without a warrant, is a bad idea.

The level of criminality here is breathtaking.

I don’t wanna hear MAGA claim they love this country and are deep patriots when Trump is robbing the country blind. You don’t do this to a country you love.

A city in Oregon was forced to permanently remove its Flock cameras after an audit found that federal agencies had access to the system.

The audit revealed that two federal agencies could access the data, including the ability to search the broader network of license plate records for up to six months.

Flock cameras are used as a mass surveillance tool under the guise of public safety.

@elpescador_eric @OrevaZSN So in seattle youre legally allowed to operate a food truck only if you operate out of a proper commisary kitchen & access to a handwashing station on site. Licensed food trucks and commissary are under the oversight of the Department of Health n all their health inspectors.
