American by birth, Australian by choice. It has been a long way from 1973, leaving rural Pennsylvania for Art College in Sydney. Unreal career here. 93 return trips to the USA from OZ, and I will never come back as long as the current madness persists.

Veterans against Trump‼️ 💯 Absolutely Correct
Private institutions are profiting from ICE detention centers just like they do prisons. States that align their police departments with ICE benefit from financial kickbacks; it’s a business model built to generate revenue. 👇🏾

Not sure why everyone is doubting Giuliani’s spokesman’s story it sounds totally plausible and not suspicious at all
Why is the Draft Dodger-in-Chief trying to drag us into a war with Venezuela? The claim is that drug cartels are so out of control they’ve been designated an international terrorist organization, so we need to send warships. But we’re denying Venezuelan’s asylum claims who fled for their lives. 🤔
Four decades ago, a multistate salmonella epidemic traced to milk from a Melrose Park farm sickened an estimated 168,000 to 197,000 people across the Midwest, according to Tribune articles at the time.

Hi. I’m the executive director of the organization that had the honor of hosting the FEMA Katrina Declaration and I can confirm this is a lie. NICE TRY, KRISTI! @standupforscience.bsky.social @atrupar.com
He starts randomly jabbering on about getting into heaven. Mysterious bruising on his hand. He disappears from the public eye for days. Even a child would suspect something was up. Everyone but Congress and mainstream media.
The President of Portugal Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa called the orange felon a Russian asset in a live televised speech. Well done, this is how you do it. 👏

Hi. Do you have suggestions for how I can dress for 115F degree weather? Also has to make me feel like it's 65F, takes no effort to put together, doesn't make me stand out, but also makes me look stylish, works for weddings and pool parties, is ethically produced, and doesn't cost more than $3? Thx.
ICYMI — JUDGE: “This case represents the consequences of a decades long drumbeat of anti-immigrant sentiment and misinformation being broadcast & broadcast & broadcast…” 2 immigrants shot in Washington, gunman sentenced in June. Barely even a story. 🤷🏻♂️ www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/g...
Imagine being this hateful. Florida should spend more money on its education system and less on trying to marginalize those who are marginalized.
Welch: Am American president talks to other American citizens like that, and propagandists come on TV and normalize this behavior. And nothing about this is normal. Nothing
rfk jr has never accepted offers from the CDC to be briefed by the world's experts, at the CDC, on covid, measles, or anything. I believe this is criminal negligence. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sih3...
If he is dying, I hope it hurts, and I hope he's scared.

He jumped that gate like he was a crossing guard, terrible execution. White boy can't jump 😂
Ouch…
I could get behind this.
“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
This is never going away, is it?

@LePapillonBlu2 Maya We are living in the dumbest timeline in human history. 😳
....... you ain't seen nothin' yet.............
Wow, it’s so weird how no one talks about this anymore. It’s almost as if inflation wasn’t THE issue, it was just useful…aw but that couldn’t be, in this nation of liberal media and bias!
@nealkatyal.bsky.social: “You’ve got the president who's imposed the largest tax increase on American consumers since 1993 … and he did it without Congress saying one word. That is not our constitutional structure.”
there is no question in my mind that rfk jr is the most dangerous person in this administration and that his eugenicist ideology threatens the lives of millions of people www.advocate.com/politics/dem...
So many people gleefully wishing and hoping for the death of our President. What does that say about humanity? There's hope for it.

If there truly is a God, this cross will someday glow white hot and everything around it will burst into flames.
If you are a wealthy criminal defendant, it makes sense under this administration to hire the AG’s brother to represent you.

CDC leaders on why the left: “I resigned because I could not be part of the weaponization of public health and CDC… we should always be questioning - but you shouldn’t have a preconceived idea before you have the data.”
The NAACP has filed a lawsuit against Texas, challenging its newly drawn congressional map. The organization alleges the map engages in racial gerrymandering, diluting the voting power of Black communities and violating federal law.
Don’t worry guys, we now have an investment banker/former political speech writer with no medical, scientific, or public health training heading the CDC. American will not get healthier with the clown car of unqualified bozos dismantling public health services. We are fucked.
confirming he is a shill and an f'ing ass hat
Mike Johnson dismisses the unpopularity of the Big Beautiful Bill: "The individual provisions of that giant piece of legislation are wildly popular." CNN host John Berman immediately debunks that claim.
When a president decides to disregard the will of the American people, you’re right, that’s the mark of authoritarian rule. The White House has notified Congress that it plans to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid funding that lawmakers had already approved, doing so without their consent.
Once the wicked witch of the west is gone, we will deal with his sister, the wicked witch of the mid-west, and all that we will need is a bucket of water...........
This is truly one of the best illustrations of what is happening in America.
Thou shalt not listen to a damn thing that RFK Jr. says.
"Literally no one thinks prayer is a substitute for action." Then why is prayer, literally, *always* the substitute for action, you willfully obtuse asshole?

"Marc Elias’s Democracy Docket has quietly become a pro-democracy media force, expanding its newsroom to 20 staffers as it surpasses 50,000 paid subscribers." Story here: www.status.news/p/democracy-...
Can't stop thinking this morning about the amount of talent, leadership, and institutional knowledge that has been pushed out of the science wings of our government this year. The structural integrity of so many of those useful organizations have been severely - perhaps permanently - damaged. So sad
Welch: Everybody's missing the point here. The point is, he's doing this on purpose. He's priming the public to get accustomed to having the military in the streets

The grand jury members that didn’t indict the sandwich thrower are Boston Tea Party level heroes and should be regarded as such.
NEW: More than two decades after victims and families of the 9/11 attacks began trying to hold the Saudi government responsible for aiding the Qaida terrorists who carried out the plot, a judge has ruled that a lawsuit against the kingdom can go to trial.

Welch: He claims that he's the law and order president. But we all know that's a lie because he's a convicted felon. He pardons convicted felons, he surrounds himself with obsequious people that kiss his all day, every day
You gotta be a real evil motherfucker to work for ICE. Just an irredeemable piece of shit dork-ass loser.
Soft secession is the concept of a wealthy blue states opting out of receiving federal funding and keeping as much of their own wealth, effectively insulating the state from federal overreach while kneecapping the administration’s agenda 💙 @cheyennehunt.bsky.social

Reality Check: ICE agents are out here losing their cars mid-chase and struggling through “superhero” training that looks more like slow motion comedy These are the men contracting for billions in taxpayer dollars while families are torn apart and communities live in fear VC @jcfrias.bsky.social
Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimes—assaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justice—they can be prosecuted.
I wish everyone in Saskatchewan understood that the amount of money being budgeted to stick it to the federal liberals by in investing in coal plants that are simply leading to climate change and should be phased out is ALSO the same amount as the budget for one year of all of healthcare.
Those who have the power to stop mass shootings can go to hell with their "thoughts and prayers." Do something about it, you evil bastards.
Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next. This is what dictatorship looks like.
