After staffers at The TRiiBE unionized two weeks ago, one of their reporters was fired. The union believes she was terminated for union organizing, and are demanding that the member be reinstated and the union be voluntarily recognized.
This was always gonna be how DOGE ended. But it still pisses me off to no end that these creeps got extended access to all of our data.
This is not the place to tell me that Americans aren't doing anything about this because we're docile cowards.
Americans are doing a lot about this and you just don't know because our media isn't talking about it.
being earnest, what libs miss is we have "held our nose" and "voted for the lesser evil" our whole lives
and look where it got us
we're done running full speed down that dead end- run a good candidate, or piss off
"there are only two choices"
wrong, there is always a third
so get it together
NBC News poll Voters hold negative views of Al. In fact, the only topics less popular in the survey were the Democratic Party and Iran.

Trump's attacks on Venezuela and Iran have nothing to do with freeing anyone.
Liberation is never imposed from above. It can only arise from within.

A six-year-old student at the California School for the Deaf-Fremont has been reunited with his communication devices after being deported to Columbia last week.
it feels like my country is an assembly line for producing crimes against humanity which no one will ever punish, or even bother to pretend caring about, and it's making me crazy
The latest polls shows that less than 40% of people are convinced that ICE should exist at all.
The disparity between the number of politicians calling to abolish ICE and the proportion of the population that is clamoring to illustrates the fundamentally reactionary character of all politicians.
The DOJ released evidence, which the FBI deemed credible, that the President of the United States sexually and physically assaulted a 13 year old girl AND she was afraid to talk about it because Trump would kill her—and it’s somehow not the biggest scandal in American history?
Truly what is the point in having democrats if they’re just this.
New York, we need you to take this man’s power away from him.
One of the lessons of the Iran war is that it was a huge mistake not to even try to put any of the Iraq war architects in prison. We shouldn’t make it again.

Federal protections against detention and deportation for sexual abuse survivors have deteriorated under Trump.
there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for
there is no opposition party in the U.S.
![The former diplomat Carne Ross observed in September 2015 in The New York Times:[181]
For a former diplomat like me, I found it confusing: I kept looking for a hierarchy, the singular leader, or signs of a government line, when, in fact, there was none; there were just groups. There was none of that stifling obedience to the party, or the obsequious deference to the "big man"—a form of government all too evident just across the borders, in Turkey to the north, and the Kurdish regional government of Iraq to the south. The confident assertiveness of young people was striking.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qdzhpxeql7myqv5j3jynm5ru/bafkreiclq5hchrsydntvycey35kx5p55y4f6r42tix5rgvgdyh7aaapmfq)

region's administration has also been accused by partisan and non-partisan sources of authoritarianism, media censorship, forced disappearances, support of the Ba'athist regime, Kurdification, and displacement. At the same time, DAANES has also been described by partisan and non-partisan sources as the most democratic system in Syria, with direct open elections, social equality, respecting human rights within the region, as well as defense of minority and religious rights within Syria. DAANES has widespread support for its universal democratic, sustainable, autonomous, pluralist, equal, and feminist policies in dialogues with other parties and organizations.
In March 2017 the "United Nations Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Syria" was unable to find evidence to substantiate claims about ethnic cleansing, stating: Though allegations of "ethnic cleansing" continued to be received during the period under review, the Commission found no evidence to substantiate claims that YPG or SDF forces ever targeted Arab communities on the basis of ethnicity, nor that YPG cantonal authorities systematically sought to change the demographic composition of territories under their control through the commission of violations directed against any particular ethnic group
God its so funny how hard Turkey+the US tried to do a smear campaign accusing Rojava of authoritarianism and ethnic cleansing to justify attacking them
but then the UN/human rights orgs investigated and are like "...this is a bunch of anarchists who are almost neurotically obsessed with equality"
Multiple news outlets are reporting a US attack on an Iranian #desalination plant.
If verified, this violates international law protecting #water systems during wars, and it sets a dangerous precedent, given intense dependence of Gulf countries on desalination.

Although Rakestraw was born in the U.S. and has never once traveled or lived outside the country, federal officials still raised questions about her legal status.”
this is explicitly genocidal
“Every child killed is the greatest war crime in the world. There is no ifs, ands, or buts about it, and no policy can force me to selectively condemn war crimes against children.
That children are killed by bombs in the 21st century is humanity's greatest defeat.”
Sundas "Sunny" Naqvi's sister said that earlier this evening, her phone had been pinging from the Broadview, IL ICE detention center.

He worked for effing Blackwater.
I agree the tattoo is bad & his response to it makes it worse.
But how was his Blackwater employment not the end of all discussions and his political career?!
