Steyer is his own man Beccera owes his candidacy to Oil and Gas and Tech Bros. Beccera is beholden to his donors and Steyer is beholden to the people of CA.

kalshi is creating a generation of young gambling addicts and the fact that any politician would be corrupted into protecting it is horrifying to me

So it turns out that a significant number of ice agents have criminal records including crimes against children.

[WarMonitor @TheWarMonitor]

According to the L.A. Times, the off-duty ICE agent who killed Keith Porter Jr. on New Year’s Eve has been identified in court filings as Brian Palacios. Those same filings allege that Palacios has a history of child abuse and racist remarks.

Remember Hind Rajab.

Just 6 years old. She sat for hours on the phone to paramedics with 6 murdered family members around her.

She told them “They are shooting at us. The tank is next to me.”

The Red Cross waited hours for Israel to permit them rescue her.

When the ambulance that was cleared to rescue arrived they executed the medics and then murdered her putting 355 bullets into the car she was in.

Her final words to paramedics and recorded were "I’m so scared, please come".

Millions of Americans are still drinking water with lead in it, but Congress just cut $125 million in lead service line replacement funding. 

Access to clean water is a human right.

Five-year-old Génesis Ester Gutiérrez Castellanos, a US citizen, and her mother were deported from San Antonio to Honduras on January 11. https://t.co/m4POikE8fH via @mySA

Greenland is a soveringn nation with almost 90 thousand people, 90% of whom are Indigenious Inuit.
The Kalaallit and Inugguit people and their homeland are not for sale. They are not a thing to be bought and traded, and I despise every person who keeps speaking of them as such.

The American Indian Movement (AIM) was founded half a century ago on Franklin Ave in Minneapolis to respond to police violence targeting indigenous residents.

Today, as ICE invades the city, "AIM patrols are back, watching over elders, youths and aunties along the same avenue."

[BevMarie 🪷 @evenbev]

@mahtowin1 @bayoumoonbeam97 Like a blast from the past

“Crow Bellecourt, Bad River Band of Chippewa, has been out on the recent patrols. His father, the late Clyde Bellecourt, was a founding member of AIM in 1968 along with Russel Means and Dennis Banks”

At the peak of the Gilded Age in 1910, the richest 0.00001% of the US population owned wealth equal to 4% of national income.

Now, the richest 0.00001% owns 12%.

US billionaire oligarchs today are even wealthier than the original robber barons.

In light of Democrats calling for more "training" for ICE, this passage from my book Copaganda seems relevant.

[Jim Acosta @Acosta]

How could anybody - democrat, republican or independent - think that this looks normal? Images like these will be held up to future generations as an example of an authoritarian period in our history and it will be a shameful one. Deeply shameful. Video credit to Status Coup.

ICE deported a 5-year-old U.S. citizen from Texas to Honduras. Reports say no alternative placement was offered, CPS was not notified, and relatives were not contacted. (San Antonio News)

"We don't do attorney visitation" isn't how the Constitution works. The federal government is blatantly denying people their basic rights under the law after an arrest.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Are we really living in a democracy when the richest man on earth can spend as much as he wants to elect his candidates? 

The most important thing our nation can do is end Citizens United and move to public funding of elections.

Billionaires can’t be allowed to buy elections.

[Mel @Villgecrazylady]

The Miami Beach mayor’s office is now flagging citizen’s Facebook posts and sending police to their doors to intimidate them for criticism of the mayor.

This video is absolutely outrageous.

So I see this tweet is once again recirculating this morning. I wrote it on day of Trump’s first visit to London. Eight years on, the UK is still in denial & ignorance about the Trump-Farage project & what it means for us
