I caught this on another timeline without warning and did not really expect what was coming because it just looked like a video of a protestor on the senate floor.
it is BRUTAL. and the sound of bone snapping is going to haunt me. (glad Greg warned!!!)
Cruelty and profit are their only guiding 'principles'
Episode 973: Why the man possessed by "Legion" matters now. Why there's no forgiveness without repentance. And a perfect diamond of Both Sides stupidity while Trump builds concentration camps.

Why is Iran bombing Dubai in the UAE? Here's the context. They're punching Trump in the pocketbook, and he was 'unprepared.' www.murphy.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...
We're re-living The Gilded Age.
"They weren't supposed to bomb the luxury Dubai hotels!" is the new "Rich people aren't supposed to get tuberculosis!" from the late 19th century.
"The Trump administration was not prepared." Of course, they weren't.
The progressive era is coming, folks.
"Dems 2026: Because Republicans want you to eat liver."

In the latest Professional Left Podcast, we ask the musical question, "Hey, Tim Scott, what was the 107th most racist thing youβve seen out of this White House?" www.buzzsprout.com/229/episodes...
The best part of the pussy hats was honestly the best part of Leftist Supply Depot: being reminded that these absolute nitwits couldn't coordinate their way out of an unlocked room with a map and a guide.

The cover of Deal With the Devil on a background featuring the heroine, Nina, standing on rubble with books in one arm and a gun in the other hand. The ebook cover is on a table with a "Now a Major Motion Picture" sticker that has an asterisk. Next to it is "* actually we're just kind of awkwardly living out the plot in real time but if we pretend it's a movie maybe that makes it more exciting?"
In 2020 @totallydonna.kitrocha.com & I started a trilogy about 3 book nerds (w/ superpowers) who just want to build a library for their community but shitty tech bros suck so they have to keep doing crimes.

As Greg points out, the Times thinks they're doing a dunk on Pretti, when actually they're providing evidence of *motive.* The ICE agents should be charged with Murder 1.
NEW Proleft Podcast Episode 964:
This isn't murder. It's lynching. Alex Pretti and Renee Good were killed by Trump's thugs who walked free. No national awakening is coming. Only relentless pressure will stop this fascism. We cannotβwe will notβforget.

I hate constantly saying this but we literally wrote this trilogy for Tor. lol
Anyway if your fear is that very wealthy people are BANKROLLING this, perhaps you will be interested in a billionaire wealth tax?
πππ I'm an overly enthusiastic database designer with 72 group chats full of ADHD and a reader base who showed up for stories of weirdo found families saving each other and the world. π
We are past the point where any MAGA criminal still supporting Donald Trump should not dare appear in public without a bag over their head. Enough is enough. These toxic incels and reprobates WANTED this to happen. Letβs make them pay for it.
