Border Patrol released Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a 56 yo man, nearly blind with serious medical conditions, at "an old address & his family had since moved" in Buffalo, NY in the winter. "His family was not initially notified." He was found dead. @news4buffalo.bsky.social

I'm old enough that I watched a healthy girl in my kindergarten class catch polio and was in a wheelchair by 1st grade and she died at 36. She cried all the time because she was in pain. When you die I'm gonna piss on your grave, Del.

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

this is the core problem with the libertarian project; most of them do not think about how bad actors will fuck up their systems and view protections against bad actors as arbitrary rules levied against them

some of them are just straight-up bad actors themselves mad there are rules

But this isn’t just a regular account. Johnny MAGA appears to actually be a White House staffer named Garrett Wade who works for the Trump administration as a rapid response manager, helping to run the very same White House account his anonymous MAGA account amplifies. A phone number associated with Wade is linked to Johnny MAGA, according to a WIRED review of publicly available records, and the connection was confirmed by a source close to the White House. Wade and the White House did not respond to requests for comment.

The Johnny MAGA account was created in September 2021, according to its X profile. (It originally used a different handle, which referenced Wade’s birth year, according to records reviewed by WIRED.) While the account’s earliest available posts focused on NFTs, it has been a consistent pro-Trump presence since at least 2022. The operator of the Johnny MAGA account has not disclosed an official relationship with the White House while operating the Johnny MAGA X account. Multiple media outlets, including Mother Jones, TownHall, and the New York Post, have all linked out to posts on the Johnny MAGA account seemingly as organic reflections of public sentiment on political issues.

This is very good reporting that sheds light on just how small the extremely pro-Trump online right really is. The online right is totally astroturfed. The White House's own staffers are running meme accounts to make them look more popular than they are. www.wired.com/story/a-whit...

Okay this is weird. I mean, it's Florida, there are roughly 1mm boats better suited to crossing 90+ miles of open water than this little thing...how do you even fit the fuel + 10 people in there?

Some say the sound of a waterfall washes away all distracting thoughts.
Listen to its roar, and every stray thought is swept away.

Sky is being too generous, the stance of USG is actually "make a deal (surrender) and THEN I'll kill you"

Surgeries Canceled, Clinics Closed After University of Mississippi Medical Center Suffers Ransomware Attack The University of Mississippi Medical Center confirmed a ransomware attack brought down its computer network Thursday morning.

Yeah, US Olympians are woke. Deal with it. Sports have always been political — it's just a question of who's speaking out.

"Unlike the 'meritocracy' they are trying to build in which white men are restored to their proper dominance, the Olympics are pretty close to a true meritocracy. Conservatives can’t whine that Simone Biles or Chloe Kim must have gotten their spots by pushing aside a more 'qualified' white athlete."

“It feels like the grift is happening,” Driskell said.

I believe the most crucial factor is whether the national leadership has gained the approval of the overwhelming majority of the people.

The banner of Trump on the DOJ building is a classic authoritarian move, turning an agency that should enforce the law independently into a personal political billboard, blurring the line between neutral justice and leader worship. #holdfast

hahaha seriously though we should charge these people as child sex traffickers

Why Are Women Leaving the US? Threats to reproductive freedom; the dismal job market and the rising costs of living mean many women are rethinking the American dream. What happens after they move on?

The message from the DOJ is unmistakable: Justice is no longer the objective.

Retribution is.

Eric Dane, the actor best known as the charming surgeon nicknamed McSteamy on “Grey’s Anatomy,” has died at 53 after battling ALS.

Imagine seeing photos and videos of ugly old men raping underage girls and thinking, "I need to protect those horrible men at all costs."?

Pam Bondi is a soulless villain.
