I’m About To Do A Thread On Fred Hampton Since Today Make It 50 Years Since He Was Assassinated By The FBI And Chicago PD And We Was Never Taught About Him In School 🤷🏾♂️....
This chart from @AdamSFeldman shows the Roberts court's votes on presidential power cases.
When a Dem is president, justices vote less for the government position.
When a Republican is president, justices vote more for the government position.
This is how the system is rigged.
Tim Wong noticed the California pipevine swallowtail butterfly had nearly vanished from San Francisco.
So he did something about it.
He tracked down the one plant the caterpillars can eat — the California pipevine — got cuttings from the botanical garden, and built a backyard enclosure from scratch.
He started with 20 caterpillars and has now raised thousands. Every year since 2012 more butterflies have been spotted flying free in San Francisco.
Conservation doesn't require a big organization. It can start in your backyard too.
Planting the right native host plants (even in a pot or small patch) is one of the simplest ways to help butterflies like this.
What's one native plant you're growing this spring?
@ShovelheadMatt@DrPepperTexan@FurkanGozukara@allidoismix Privilege my ass....Trump is an about 80 year old dementia ridden Sudafed addict....dude has literally been losing his marbles b4 our eyes....remember back in '24 when his rally supporters would start walking out after an hour of hearing him? Because he couldn't stay coherent?
on the day israel passed death by hanging for palestinian hostages, CNN invited marc platt’s jobless son to smear hasan piker as antisemitic for opposing genocide
I have been told by Serious People that it is an unfair "purity test" to ask whether your politicians think this behavior — funded by your taxes — is genocidal
Nobody can afford anything in America and this is what the national media chooses to focus on, and then media elites somehow wonder why nobody watches cable TV news anymore
BREAKING: At tonight’s NYC-DSA electoral forum, @AOC committed to voting against “any spending on arms for Israel, including so-called defensive capabilities.”
Imagine being a CNN watcher and seeing @jaketapper go on a 8min pearl clutching segment with two insane zionists crying about @hasanthehun and then an hour later you see this piece on the same guy doing an aid mission. Really undercuts the whole "hes a terrorist" line of argument
Props to @CNN's @Elex_Michaelson for having @hasanthehun on and letting him speak in his own voice, his own words, rather than ventriloquized or quoted out of context by pro-Israel politicians and pundits.
everyone in the conversion therapy business knows it doesn't actually work and is a scam but nobody cares. the parents know their "fruity freak" kids won't ever actually be "normal" either, this is just a ritualized torture as a form of punishment
Interesting that the guy Platt they had on CNN to give the Jewish anti-Piker perspective is a guy who spent today defending Ben-Gvir’s racist apartheid ‘kill only Palestinian convicts’ law, and in this clip suggests Piker is antisemitic for saying Israel pulled the US into this war - which is what multiple top mainstream Senate Democrats - Gallego, Murphy, Schatz, etc - have said! Yeah, a real fringe view!
@lioninjawarloc I have met a lot. They are often people who were originally persuaded by the idea that Marxism = organization and anarchism = individualism. Then they read social anarchist theory and discover anarchism is nothing like they thought. Recommend: 'Social Anarchism and Organization'
“Even the apartheid regime in South Africa did not dare to say that if a black man kills a white man, he will be executed. But if a white man kills a black man, he will not be. What Israel did…it is exactly that saying that a Palestinian could be sentenced to death penalty, but an Israeli no for the same crime.” -@MustafaBarghou1 on Israel’s new death penalty law.
