I have seen several post mortem articles on why Kristi Noem was fired. Where were they when she was committing all of these atrocities? Piling on is easy. Exposing them and keeping her feet to the fire would have been hard but is what we expect from journalism.

βThe most common way people give up their power is by thinking they donβt have any.β

The FBI said the passenger was speaking in his native language, but it was determined to be nothing threatening. No credible threat was found, no charges will be filed, and the person will not be identified.
So racism
People should be required to experience ICE's illegal brutalities before being able to claim that they support ICE and their methods.

The US has no business dictating women's rights to other countries while engaging in misogyny, disenfranchisement, unequal pay & a refusal to remove the constraints to our rise to power positions here at home. Where women & children can be made slaves to sex trafficking politicians in the WH.
Spainβs MEP Irene Montero speaking to reporters
Irene Montero: No woman has ever been freed by American bombs or illegal aggression β Not in Syria. Not in Iraq. Not in Afghanistan. It will not happen in Iran either
When they want to sell their oil wars, their wars for profit, their imperial wars β they hide behind womenβs rights to justify them
I travel for my business. I find it hard to say out loud, but I have had to cancel events if I don't have a caucasian male available to escort me. This timeline is terrifying.
The British journalist who breaks the story with details of how exactly Lord Mandelson met his Brazilian husband while da Silva was supposedly at university, and reports how da Silva began receiving *regular* βtuitionβ payments from Epstein in the first place, deserves a British Journalism Award ποΈπ
The president of the United States killed children to distract from raping children.
Hegseth & Trump are surrounded by incompetent fools. If the federal government dumps Anthropic it also dumps Palantir, AWS, Lawrence Livermore, Deloitte, Salesforce & multiple others who use Anthropic tools &/or Claude. This is going to be shitshow of epic proportions. They are absolutely clueless
This is because the Pentagon and Trump donβt like Anthropicβs language preventing their tech from being used to surveil Americans or for autonomous weapons. Which means the Pentagon wants to use their tech to surveil Americans and build autonomous weapons apnews.com/article/anth...
It bothers me how nobody seems to understand that this, trans people getting booted out of the military without their contractually obligated benefits, etc. is ultimately about if the promises of the government are worth a goddamn thing as long as the Republican Party exists.
I am struggling to survive the world burning down around us. But I will keep pushing forward. I have to. There are people I love in this world who deserve a future free from fascism, misogyny, bigotry, and classism.
Two young children sit in front of a decorated Christmas tree. The older child, wearing glasses and a colorful striped shirt, smiles at the camera with an arm around a younger toddler in light-colored pajamas holding a small toy. The tree behind them is adorned with tinsel, ornaments, and candy canes.
Had a more surprise and sudden deaths in the family last week. It's been a rough few years. Reminiscing and remembering. Came across this Pic. Partner in life and crime said I had Harry Potter glasses. I corrected him. Harry Potter wore Melody glasses.
While more they try to DEhumanize some of us, the more all of us see how INhumane they are.
They try to strip from us what they lack to begin with - empathy.
Unlike what the Musks and Thiels of the world believe, empathy is a superpower. We have the power for positive change.
The corps will claw back the money the gov took from citizens. None of that $$ will ever make it back into the people's picked pockets. Bonus: price hikes that included tariff taxes wont revert back to pre-tarrif prices. Corps will now increase their profit margins by continuing to bilk the people.
No, but Israel does. Russia does. This entire administration is compromised.
Even Andrew is not being arrested for his part in it. His crime is the state secrets while he was the trade envoy, he shared with Epstein, and probably Russia and Israel as well.
Keep recording them. π·

listen, girls need pockets because we need a place to put cool rocks and shit
A son of sharecroppers, a Freedom Rider, a moral force in Congress, John Lewis taught us that democracy is not a state, it is an act. When we see injustice, we do not look away. We get in good trouble. And we build bridges despite adversity. Happy Heavenly Birthday, Congressman.
Lollllllll
The politicos know it's all BS. They don't care. They don't have policies, only stochastic terrorism.
ββI am begging my fellow politicians, my fellow Americans to realize that right now in this country we are not fighting over policy or political party,β Pritzker said. βWe are fighting over whether we are going to be a civilization rooted in empathy and kindnessβor one rooted in cruelty and rage.ββ
