[EU says Elon should not lie abt my blue check @emptywheel]

The fellow who is CELEBRATING the people who attacked the Capitol and wants to give them million dollar payouts for doing so says leave the country if you don't like it.

Sounds like you should get on your own bus, @SenTuberville, bc paying people who attacked the Capitol is an attack on the country.

Destroying the @InternetArchive's @WayBackMachine would be the equivalent of the burning of the Library of Alexandria - one of the worst losses of knowledge in history.

Media giants are now threatening to do this.

We can't let this happen.

Pass it on.

[Jack Hopkins @thejackhopkins]

140 police officers were beaten.
With flagpoles. Batons. Baseball bats.
Four died.
Today the Justice Department erased the convictions of the men who organized it.
And called it justice.

Zohran Mamdani and the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection have announced a "Click to Cancel" rule.

The rule would make NYC the first city in the nation to ban subscription traps and force companies to make it just as easy to cancel subscriptions as it is to enroll.

@jkbjournalist start a newspaper. even if it’s a couple pages stapled together
if it’s an honest attempt at reporting it will inspire others and we could have a great return of competitive local journalism. sell em at independent book and record stores for 90 cents

From conservative oilman JP Bryan: “Those advocating for this insane project should stand up … so their names may be indelibly placed on that border wall and remembered forever in infamy.”

If you're angry because Springsteen used to be really good, and the music was great, but his new song about Minneapolis is crude virtue signalling, and you wonder why he's changed, the answer is he hasn't. You have. Springsteen still has fire in him. You're an old reactionary.

ICE can't function without the private sector. Here are ICE's top corporate collaborators:

Amazon/Whole Foods
Target
Palantir
Every major hotel chain
Home Depot
Lowe’s
AT&T
Aramark
Eastern Airlines
Global X
Omni Air
Flock Systems
Dell
UPS
FedEx
Motorola Solutions
LexisNexis
Thompson Reuters

We don't need vague calls to stop shopping at these places or one-off rallies — we need sit-ins, pressure campaigns, *organized* boycotts, employee and consumer petitions, sickouts, demands from elected officials, and non-violent disruption to force these companies to immediately break from ICE

[Alex Gibney @alexgibneyfilm]

Chilling notice that Pam Bondi is trying to "trade" the departure of ICE for Minnesota voter database. This is about trying to steal the election in 2026.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

AOC has the best response to this shit:

“They are asking you to give up your belief in your own senses and instead hand over your belief to anything they say…an innocent man (was) executed in the street.”

[Timothy Snyder @TimothyDSnyder]

Abolish ICE, abolish DHS, redistribute the other agencies, prosecute actual criminals, such as people who commit execution-style murders of Americans in broad daylight.

[Amanda Litman @amandalitman]

“Please get the truth out about our son.”

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Today DHS assassinated a VA nurse in the street, Bondi is attempting to extort voter files, and half the country is bracing on the eve of a potentially crippling ice storm with FEMA gutted.

So what is the President up to? Having a movie night at the White House.

He’s unfit.

[Andrew Egger @EggerDC]

Logging off because if I see one more smug "if you're armed don't get into a confrontation with the cops" post I'm going to lose it. The guy peacefully put himself between an agent and a woman that agent was assaulting. That's it. It's all on video. Use your eyes and your brains.

[John Fugelsang @JohnFugelsang]

100% of actual Christ Followers do not support ICE.

And shitty right wing “Christians” do not follow Christ; they use Him.

MAGA rejects the Beatitudes and Matthew 25 bc they found an authoritarian pussy-grabbing messiah whose words they conclusively prefer to Woke Jesus’s.
