Two bags of Peet’s coffee. The one on the left is bigger, and the bag says it contains 18oz of coffee. The one on the right is smaller, containing only 10.5 oz.
The bag on the left used to be an expensive treat at $11/18 oz bag. Now it’s 42% smaller and costs a whopping $14. Thanks, Obama!
the president has no idea what he has set in motion. none.

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?
An ADSBx map showing C104 flying from Florida to Watertown SD late last night.
Ugh. The brand-new Coast Guard jet Kristi Noem was using before she got fired flew down to Florida late Friday -- presumably for the "Shield of the Americas" announcement -- and then returned to Watertown, SD, late Saturday. So she's still using it!!
ICE's New Maryland Detention Center Would Need 209,000 Gallons of Water a Day. Nobody Knows Where It Will Come From.

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.
These are different from the tips released in December — the fbi noted on that document specifically when those weren’t credible or probative etc. This initial tip was also on that document, but the fbi didn’t say any of those things. Instead, they set up an interview with her. Then at least 3 more.
We don’t know if they’re unsubstantiated
Migration is part of what makes this country great.
We're not an island of strangers - we're an island of neighbours.
The Green Party will always support fair & managed migration.
Not gonna share the video of Republican US Senator Tim Sheehy breaking a protesting Marine's hand, but you can find it on @charlotteclymer.bsky.social's timeline.
I'll just say that in a functional country, Sheehy would be expelled by the Senate.
Democratic Senators should publicly push for that.
When faced with a shockingly exploitative new employment contract that would’ve forced them to sign away their IP, their likeness rights, and their power of attorney, Jupiter Jetson and her coworkers at Sheri’s fought back—fast.
They organized a union in SIX DAYS. www.thenation.com/article/econ...
People are really doom pilling over media consolidation and I get it but let me remind you these motherfuckers are losing and we're going to defeat them.
There are more organizers and activists ready to talk to their communities than any point in my lifetime.
Well come through for each other.
We’re not being governed, we’re being looted.

NEW: WSJ now confirming my reporting that the DOJ is withholding at least three FBI interviews with a woman who told the FBI that Trump sexually assaulted her when she was a child

"SLOPPINESS": The Trump administration claimed that a man detained by ICE had a criminal convictions for marijuana possession in 2009.
The judge pointed out that the man was 4 years old at the time.

Trump and the GOP cut $1 trillion from Medicaid and handed $1 trillion in tax cuts to the top 1%.
Dollar for dollar.
That's what Donald Trump calls “winning.”
As a Black man with Tourette Syndrome, the Public Advocate has some thoughts on BAFTA, Pt. 1:
Hear about his experience with Coprolalia, his thoughts on how BAFTA mishandled the moment, and the need for care for all who are harmed:

This is the most incredible footage of blue whales I’ve ever seen
ICE agents grabbed a 16-year-old asylum seeker--which they aren't supposed to do
They kept him from his parents -which they aren't supposed to do
They shipped him out of state, to a Christian ministry, which they aren't supposed to do.
Then they *lost* him.

👀The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics.
"It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

We watched more than 50 hours of dashcam and bodycam footage taken from the first night of the ICE sweeps in Nashville in May. During one arrest, an agent finds an immigrant's ID and notes he's a manager at a Mexican restaurant.
“The guacamole is never going to taste the same,” the agent laughs.
Coverage of Andy Barr, a sitting Congressman and candidate for U.S. Senate, running an ad declaring, "It's not a sin to be white" -- a variation of a notorious white nationalist slogan

The concentration of wealth among the richest Americans is unlike anything in history — and so is billionaires’ influence in politics.

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.
Breaking: House passes new version of SAVE Act, worst voter suppression bill considered by Congress. Could disenfranchise:
-21 million Americans w/out access to citizenship papers
-69 mil married women who took partner’s name
-21 mil w/out valid drivers license
www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Most Real IDs do *not* prove citizenship. (EDLs, which are available in only 5 states are an exception) The GOP’s “SAVE” Act thus misleads when it says voters can prove citizenship w/ “a form of ID issued consistent with the reqmts of…REAL ID…that indicates the applicant is a citizen of the US…” 1/
