So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street
Stephen Miller, Tom Homan, Kristi Noem and a whole lot of ICE/DHS types is will discover a Strange New Respect for habeas corpus and the rule of law when the 2029 Truth and Reconciliation Commission arrests them for human trafficking, conspiracy, kidnapping, and child abuse.
AOC: If anyone is breaking the law in this situation, it’s not members of Congress — it’s DHS. It’s people like Tom Homan and Secretary Kristi Noem. You lay a finger on Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman or any of the Representatives that were there… we’re going to have a problem.
"Under the annual appropriations act, lawmakers are permitted to enter 'any facility operated by or for DHS used to detain or otherwise house aliens.' The law is clear that members of Congress are not required 'to provide prior notice of intent to enter a facility'..." www.cnn.com/2025/05/10/p...
I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.
AOC: We need to be talking about ICE agents and the cowardly policy of covering their faces — and, in many cases, their identification… The idea that we’re going to allow a paramilitary force to bloom, one that isn’t accountable to the Constitution… we’ve got another thing coming.
“The notion that I or any of my colleagues ‘body slammed’ armed federal officers is absurd. DHS is lying because they know their agents were out of line.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...
The rule of law is all or nothing and must apply equally to everyone. If there's no rule of law for some people in America, then there's no rule of law for any of us.
Putin and the rest of the world continuing to laugh at these bumbling fools.
How could you not be impressed by a bird in your yard? This dude can fly anywhere and it came here to hang out with you
The same people who went apoplectic when asked to wear a mask to *protect people* in a pandemic eagerly wear one to *kidnap people* in Gestapo cosplay.
When you watch these heartbreaking videos showing the cruel and thuggish behavior of ICE agents, remember that these people are not being FORCED to commit these acts — they do so willingly. They could quit their jobs at any time. They could say “enough!” ICE agents CHOOSE to do what they do.
Welcome to the RFK Jr public health era.
Our trade deal so far is no tariffs on Rolls Royces and Bentleys and our refugee policy is white South Africans only.
We just wanted to say, we love you. This week has been rough, and we’ve felt every moment of it with you. But everyone in our coalition is safe means everything. We’re so grateful! 🥹 💚
AOC: This administration — and Noem — spits on the American flag every time they engage in that nonsense. So I don’t want to hear anything about “America First.” These people, and this administration, are putting America last by acting like their allegiance is to a man instead of the Constitution.

Tariff exemptions aren’t trade deals, they’re shakedowns.
NRA in 2020: "We need guns to resist tyranny!" NRA in 2021: "We need guns to resist tyranny!" NRA in 2022: "We need guns to resist tyranny!" NRA in 2023: "We need guns to resist tyranny!" NRA in 2024: "Ya know, tyranny's not so bad."

Tear off the masks when they show up. Take their photos. Get them on video. Expose them. Out them. Name them. They need to be made into pariahs where decent people gather. We cannot allow them to terrorize us. Eyes open. Phones on.

Americans still think bad things will never happen to them, so they don’t care.
People who never read books now in charge of books.
He declared an "emergency" at the border in order to abduct people of color. He declared an energy "emergency" in order to bypass vetted permit approvals for oil and gas companies. He declared an "emergency" with trade in order to leverage companies with 'tariff exceptions'. Get it yet?

It’s really striking how irregular the bands of mostly men conducting federal immigration enforcement are. They seem to have no particular uniform, they wear a variety of different agency initials on their tactical vests, or none at all, they’re inconsistent about displaying a badge…
Thank you to all of you who sent birthday wishes to me today. Bluesky is truly a lovely place. As a token of my appreciation, please accept this picture of a cat.
Only Congress has this power. Sorry, Peewee German.
The world’s ugliest rose bush lives in my yard. Apparently the previous owners tried to get rid of it, but the plant was tenacious and became one giant thorny stalk that each year grows a single rose. This year, that rose sure was something.

No matter how many times we say Fox News isn’t real news, it doesn’t matter—because their viewers believe it is. Watch: It shows exactly how they’re screwing all of us—you & me—because we’re stuck dealing with people who fall for disinformation. And their own viewers, because they believe the lies.
WARNING: When due process dies, it’s only a matter of who’s in charge and the table is turned.

Howard Lutnick on UK Deal: “They opened their market for the first time in 30 years for 5 billion in exports, while paying us 6 billion a year in tariffs” Fact check: The UK won’t pay a penny. American companies importing goods from the UK will pay the tariffs, and pass the cost on to consumers.
My Godfather the painter William Glen Crooks passed away today after a perhaps blessedly brief fight with Alzheimer's. He was a second father to me, and gave me my love of art, writing, music, philosophy and physics.
Yes, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social … YES
Daily bunny no.2951 gotcha!
No. Trump is an inveterate liar. His statements should never be put in headlines. News outlets must find out what actually occurred, put that in the headline, and then put Trump statements, with fact checks, at the end of the article. apple.news/AGkI8kRVEQC6...

Und by the way, Margot Friedländer betrauern und vorher mit der AfD zusammen Asylrecht verschärfen ist ein Widerspruch, den diese Gesellschaft nicht dulden darf. CDU/CSU, Macht eure Rechte Politik ohne die Überlebenden der Shoah!
Ich sage das jetzt genau ein Mal: Deutsche haben millionen Menschen enteignet, vertrieben & ermordet. Seitdem kommen sie nicht auf ihre Täter*innenschaft klar. Das ist ihr Problem, nicht das der Opfer, nicht das der Nachkommen. Lasst Margot in Frieden. Sie musste Deutschland lang genug ertragen.
Ich kenne gerade eine Menge Menschen, die es, unabhängig von ihrer politischen Haltung, extrem umtreibt, dass es in Deutschland kaum regnet. Aber ich schätze, das meint Klingbeil nicht.

Fucking hell. I know nobody’s in greasy overalls for you to fetishise, Labour, but this is still an industry full of working people on marginal incomes that you are voluntarily destroying, you dumb tech-fetishising goons. You just sold us for corporate strip-mining. Up the workers.

DOGE was never about "efficiency”
Putin‘s statement completely ignores the ceasefire demand, but throws another bread crumb so that more hollow headlines are produced. It is a delaying tactic and an attempt to split the West, where the weak-minded in the West would fall for that.
Anyone on social media doesn’t need to be told that people can be odd, but this comment below a book review in the Sunday Times is really quite something! (Good reply to it, though.)
Heute wäre Lorenz 22 Jahre alt geworden. Erinnern wir an ihn und seine Geschichte. Erinnern wir daran, dass Rassismus und Polizeigewalt längst keine Einzelfälle sind. Erinnern wir daran, dass die Politik schweigt. Erinnern wir daran, dass so etwas nie wieder passieren darf!
On the Pokrovsk front, Russian armor tried to push through — but the 3rd National Guard Brigade “Spartan” and nearby units were ready. The tank lit up the sky in a fireball, and the crew didn’t make it out.
"We’ll judge Russia by actions, not words," says State Department Spokesperson Tammy Bruce. Indeed, given how many times Russia has broken its word, talk is cheap. Concrete steps are what matter.

Morning from Kyiv. russia launched drones again at night. putin is ready to resume direct talks with Ukraine? Oh my, this 'boy' needs only a break. Today is Mother's Day. Mothers suffer the most from the wars. 🇺🇦 Viktor Babak, Mother Ukraine, 2022
House of Commons speaker kept almost 300 gifts over past 4 years. Gifts are to a state official and therefore must not be retained by a person. Any state officials (Ministers, legislators, regulators, law enforcement) not on the make? Must cleanse political system for good life.
Putin chose war — and rejected ending it in favor of a summer offensive, said Andrii Kovalenko, Head of Ukraine’s Center for Countering Disinformation.
🇺🇦 Ukraine shot down 60 Shahed drones overnight and neutralized 41 decoy UAVs out of 108 launched by Russia. Sumy region suffered damage.
If Trump resigned today, it would take years to repair all the damage he has done.
