The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled.
A truly extraordinary moment.
We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.
Act like it.
This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.
It seems more clear than ever that women and especially Black women are held to impossibly high standards while men literally get away with rape and murder, and yet no one seems to be talking about this.
Stand up for science on March 7th!

If we don’t stand up no one will
Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social
interviewed Ramirez about her plans to dismantle DHS, abolish ICE, and put money towards housing and health care for communities ICE is terrorizing. www.publicnotice.co/p/delia-rami...
BREAKING: The Epstein survivors are releasing this ad on this Super Bowl Sunday to send the message that they will not “move on” from the largest sex trafficking scandal in the world. #standwithsurvivors
Horrified by the Epstein files?
This started when colonizers arrived in 1492. Columbus & his men trafficked Taino girls as young as 9, yet he has a federal holiday & statues. Slave "owners" like Jefferson routinely raped Black children. This horror is not new to the rulers in the Americas.
I think we need to be careful about assuming Hillary had no contact with Epstein. She is in fact in the files and while she may not have been raping children, any kind of relationship raises questions.
It should be crystal clear to anyone with eyes and ears that Trump is DETERMINED to subvert free and fair elections in America.
But in America, state and local governments run elections. So Trump can kick rocks.
Still, ALL of Congress must be VIGILANT.
Too horrifying for corporate media to touch, apparently.
You are awesome! THANK YOU!!!
Washington’s refusal to regulate AI is a corruption story. Just ask Donald Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson.
every epstein file drop underscores how elite power operates through shared socio-economic networks, regardless of people's ideological differences, populist posturing, or public feuds
Underneath the name Charlie Hebdo is a pile of bloodied dead bodies representing US citizens killed by ICE. The pile of bodies are collected in one corner to represent the stars of the US flag and the streaks of blood caused by them being dragged across the ground form the red and white stripes. In the foreground an armed skinhead officer with an ICE vest is dragging his latest victim with multiple gunshots to join the pile. The world is watching in horror.
Wow.
The front page of tomorrow’s Charlie Hebdo magazine in France.
A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.
Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.
A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
Tell your senators to rein in ICE NOW act.indivisible.org/sign/ice-out...
“You weren't afraid of tyranny.
You were afraid of losing dominance. There's a difference, and this moment exposes it completely.”
Slotkin’s voicemail is full. Hopefully a sign she’s getting inundated. But in this day and age why do they even have a storage limit???
ICE has killed 2 people & detained a 2-year-old & 5-year-old in Minneapolis in 3 weeks. Congress can stop this. Call your senators TODAY. (202) 224-3121 or use @5calls.org. Ask them to investigate ICE, freeze operations in Minnesota, remove DHS Sec Noem. 10 minutes. Proof in replies. #StopICE
Some are pointing out that we can point to our own KKK and slave patrols as fascist corollaries.
It’s alarming to realize not only how many of my fellow Americans are fascists but also how many more do nothing in the face of the dismantling of our democracy and Constitutional rights and even the ethnic cleansing of our neighbors by our own government.
