What a diverse crowd of…ties.
Dis 👇🏼 y'all! 😭💔😭💔😭🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 I can not handle this at all.
This is terrifying and not getting much play
Is it just me, or does it appear that they got him an *actual* makeup person? Because that skin tone seems oddly….almost normal
Omg this MADE MY WHOLE DAY!
The people who wash out of McICE need a place to work too, you know.
Followed, although I was already following most!
Happy paperback release day to me, and to the woman who fought fascism through her activism and creativity for her entire adult life. Lots of tv and glass ceiling "firsts" with this one. #booksky #nonfiction #history #tv #film #robinhood #activism #coldwar #redscare www.youtube.com/watch?v=4h-1...
Ignorant and stupid and hateful. Climb back into your cave.
Wait….do we think he’s going to make the announcement that he’s….pardoning Maxwell?
It’s not working for me! Dammit! I just get a first page with tons of ads and the inability to keep going
America’s vicious cycle: Corporations crush workers to protect their bottom lines, then use their profits to lobby for policies that allow them to keep crushing workers. Labor Day is the perfect time to remind ourselves it doesn’t have to be this way. https://youtu.be/JSralhrpK44?feature=shared
Thank you! Issa is a festering sore on California and needs to go already.
Cuzza it was daytime
I LOVE this!
Just a reminder, shouting non-nuanced pronouncements from a nation whose majority is just as anti-Semitic as any other doesn’t make you qualified as a Middle East expert, but it does help make the world unsafe for Jews. Try asking the people who define the terms. 🙄 humanrights.gov.au/about/news/m...
Exactly
It’s either Venezuela or Chicago.
I’m scared.
But yes, basically, there are tunnels underneath almost all of Gaza, with civilian needs on top of warmongering Hamas using them as cover. It's not just a threat to Israel, and it's not just something Israel "made up." www.wilsoncenter.org/blog-post/ha...
Don't put words in my mouth. If you have not visited the region and have not studied it more than superficial baloney on social media, don't get mad when you are challenged. Don't deny yourself an education. It's easy to talk to people. No one is happy with the situation.
I'm listening....
I'm not sure what you mean by "thanks for working." But back to the point: what do you suggest doing besides pushing to overturn this regime? Creating awareness about paid leave, sick days, paid holidays, the labor movement, and safety in the workplace laws seems like a good idea, no?
It is disingenuous to ignore the fact that Hamas has stolen billions of dollars in aid for decades. We have, in fact, sent a lot of money to build civilian infrastructure in Gaza, which has been stolen. Not taking a side here, I’m just suggesting 70+ years can’t be summarized with skeets
No. We do not.
Meant to add…it’s not even open for debate. Hamas admits it, and 70+ years of documentation proves it. However one thinks about the current situation there (which is appalling) it is absolutely true that Hamas has built all its weapons of war and tunnels under civvy structures.
Oh no!
There’s plenty of proof of that.
Who?
I stand by my word analysis. Doesn’t matter. It’s the best we have right now…or at least, before this current regime. Democrats were asleep at the wheel when Citizens United passed. But if we want to make things better, we have to be visible and get people to understand all they are losing.
💯
Couldn’t agree more.
Absolutely what I was thinking. "Oh, hey...I've got three billion dollars but I'm not paying you -- have this now-cheap-ass piece of paper and go away."
🎯
EXACTLY. Where are those vultures?
Exactly!!!
You’re killing me.
Wrong use of platitude, but if you’re saying we should not highlight the fact that a democratic society fights for labor, you’ve lost the plot. No, it isn’t perfect by a long stretch. No, it won’t get better under the current regime. Low-info people need to know this.
Where do I say unions aren’t needed! Where????
YOU KNOW IT!

This is what happens when entire nations don't require history fundamentals in K-12. Or, when entire nations don't pay attention. Would be hilarious if not so dangerous.
We got ya!
When you're too dumb and devoted you don't even realize you can get a perfectly good paying job with ICE.
Okay. This answers my question about Rudy having enough money to pay a "spokesperson."
Why the f*ck does Rudy Giuliani have a "spokesperson?" Does he have money for this "spokesperson?" Why is he even outside? Everything should go to the pollworkers.
In which case, the National Guard will be sent to New Hampshire. But only its college towns.
This is obviously a compilation of third-person assessments and I have not had time to read it, but it was recommended by a good friend who was a prof. at U of H. It's chapter on Hawai'i is supposed to be excellent. Check sources, might be some good first-hands sources?
Terrific! I’ll definitely be looking at this.
Meet Candon Dahle, Why isn't he not in jail for life? Bingham County Idaho THIS CHILD RAPIST was sentence to 180 days in jail for raping a 7 year old girl for 5 years, part of the plea deal was that he would not have to register as a sex offender. WOW: (white privilege )
Bless you!
Making me seethe with jealousy right now. 😩
He can pretend to be dead all he wants. I still want the Epstein files released.
I don’t recall the model, but as you can see, these are a little wide in the front. However, I think they all are. But buy, they feel good and handle well. My second pair.
Never thought I’d be this person but ALTRA RUNNING SHOES HAVE CHANGED MY LIFE! No more pain.
FEDERAL AGENTS TAKE NOTE… It’s not just Chicago standing strong. Other blue cities and governors are ready to unite against Trump’s federal invasion. I’m not an attorney, but this point seems huge: if federal agents break state or city laws, they can prosecuted. And Trump cannot pardon them.
Anyone made sure the Liquor Marts are still stocked?
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I mean, we keep trying to but we devolve into hysterics at "spine" and "stopping for a domestic abuse victim."
Wait, who the fuck is his "business partner" and should the poll workers' lawyers see what's being stored at their house?
That's awesome! Great feeling, for sure.
open.substack.com/pub/thejourn... Excellent piece by Marlon Weems. KEEP BOYCOTTING TARGET. #boycotttarget
And yet cnn keeps doing “both sides,” amirite
Clearly, yes.
Exactly
Hahahahahahahahha
I can’t tell do you’re being facetious or not but yeah…no they didn’t. A few people just hoarded it and used it to stay in power and stay wealthy.

We loved it!
Hard pass.
Sure do, times a thousand for every stupid ass thing he does. Not to mention that his wife keeps a whole separate residence team that no one in the press ever talks about.
lol
Because @nbcnews.com @abcnewsbot.bsky.social @nytimes.com @cnn.com @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy lets him skate while they covered Biden’s hangnail 24/7.
Look at all that gddamned protection we pay for while he ruins our country
The guy can ruin the lives of millions yet he can’t manage to cover that hand bruise
Thank you for being so brave, Dr. Houry.
This is pure propaganda. Watch what Wall Street does. They know the real numbers and they act accordingly.
Resign.
Thank you!
One does wonder.
This notion that Republicans are coasting right now and the wind is beneath the sails of Donald Trump is just not true. Joni Ernst is not going to run for reelection in Iowa. There was a special election in Iowa earlier this week and the Democrats have now broken the Republican super majority.
Yes and no. He'll just ignore or take to SCOTUS.
What can we do to thwart her?
We’ve had both of these kinds of dogs and I don’t know that we’ll ever have such good doggies again.
Oh, hi Jeri!
Correct
That’s exactly what I wonder, too.
He knows
Thank you for including me! I concur with all your sentiments above.
The fact that all major news sources in the United States have daily lead stories like "Experts weigh in on the most delicious ice cream" and not "Democracy is dead" is one of the greatest derelictions in duty in the history of the country.
Sorry. Be safe (which sounds stupid. But this is where we are).
!!!!
I was feeling the same way. But you know what? They’re going to burn themselves to the ground and we will need to rebuild better. So hang here, and we’ll be here for you.
Exactly right.
We’re going to go on a rant for a minute, and yes we’re bringing some history with us. Back in 1755, Benjamin Franklin wrote words that still echo today: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”
Heartiest thanks and congratulations!
Oh my fucking gd.
