Marjorie Taylor Greene ran on a platform of white supremacy so it should be clear to y'all Anglo Saxon isn't a term we should using unless we want to invoke white supremacy just in case you missed it the first one hundred million times we've had this convo

There is no such thing as "'Anglo-Saxon' political traditions" unless Margorie Taylor Greene is talking about Old English charters and she isn't. If she wants to return to those, she'll have to stop advocating for gun use. "Anglo-Saxon" is being weaponized by the far-right.

Israel is still committing genocide in Palestine.

Once you understand that white supremacy is not just an ideology but also a system, you won't be surprised when some murderous ICE agents are Latino, just like some murderous police officers are Black, just like some victims of state-sanctioned violence are white

Ilhan Omar spent four years in a refugee camp and ended up becoming a Congresswoman. She represents the best of America, while Donald Trump represents the worst.

On May 13, 1985 in Philadelphia, the Pennsylvania State Police dropped a bomb from a helicopter onto a Black neighborhood.

11 people were killed, 5 of whom were children.

As we see ICE terrorize communities, understand that saying “this isn’t who we are” is false.

Keith Porter’s killer has not been arrested yet.

Renee Good’s killer has not been arrested yet.

Alex Pretti’s killer has not been arrested yet.

All 3 of these killers are being protected by the U.S. government and we must continue to demand their arrest.

No justice. No peace!

Say his name. Keith Porter, Jr.
Killed by an off-duty ICE agent on New Years Eve.

It went from “America First” to “we’re going to run Venezuela” in less than a year.

And Americans still don’t have affordable housing, healthcare, or groceries.

[Rep. Ilhan Omar @Ilhan]

Trump's illegal military strikes in Venezuela aren't about drugs. They are about regime change.

But we must be clear - only Congress has the authority to declare war. Not the president.

We must pass our War Powers Resolution and re-establish Congress's power.

Reminder that the Epstein Files are supposed to be released on Friday and every political development that you see between now until then should be viewed with that in mind.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

The US economy is built on slavery.

SNAP has existed for 60 years. Benefits have gone out every single month over those six decades, including during government shutdowns. Until now.

Make no mistake: The money is available to fund SNAP during this shutdown. Trump is making a choice to withhold it.

Don’t forget this.

[Rep. Ilhan Omar @Ilhan]

Sudan is facing the world’s worst humanitarian crisis and a genocide. Tens of thousands dead. 12 million displaced.

The images of the RSF seizing El Fasher are horrific.

The UAE and other arms dealers to the RSF and RSF-aligned militias must be held accountable.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

This is clearly not a ceasefire. In order to secure a permanent ceasefire, we need a total arms embargo to stop Israel’s genocidal apartheid regime.

[Afshin Rattansi @afshinrattansi]

Before the Cuban revolution, US financial interests owned:

90% of Cuba’s mines

80% of public utilities

50% of railways

40% of sugar production

25% of bank deposits

The US🇺🇸 blockade on Cuba🇨🇺 has been a punishment for Cubans daring to claim back their economic sovereignty

General population for this murderer of Sonya Massey.

May her family be surrounded by love and feel a little relief today.

Trinidad, the birthplace of giants like Kwame Ture, Claudia Jones, C.L.R. James, George Padmore, Eric Williams et al, once a beacon of anticolonial, Marxist, & Pan-African thought. Now U.S. imperialism has hollowed it out, turning it into a war base to threaten Venezuela for oil.

My theory is that all the data centers being forced on us aren’t for future public demand, they’re for current military/govt demand—that AI is the backbone of the new surveillance state but they can’t say that so they pretend it’s because people love making videos of Pikachu.
