Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

It’s really starting to sink in how all of the pressure on women to look a certain way and never age are 100% the result of a cabal of powerful men who literally want us to look like children and teenagers.

I would love to have a discussion with Jake Tapper about the history of the term "concentration camp" and its usage. It would do so much good if he would actually address this head on.
God the gall of @jaketapper.bsky.social lecturing that Minneapolis small business owner about the meaning of the word "concentration camp" while people are being crammed into poorly resourced buildings by the thousands and shuttled off never to be heard from again

I cannot think about anything but the children in Dilley. I just lie here with my heart hammering in my chest and I feel like the anger is going to crack my sternum in two.

Really wish they’d ask specific questions. Like, independent of what they want to call a database, how did this happen then?

“When Citizens United was decided in 2010, billionaires had spent $18 million on the 2000 election, $13M 2004 and $16M in 2008. Then came the deluge. In 2012 it was $231M, and nearly doubled again in next three election cycles —to $682M in 2016, $1.2 billion in 2020 and $2.6 billion in 2024.” Gift:

if you move you’ll have to reregister. If you get booted from the rolls you’ll have to reregister. In person. With a passport unless your birth cert matches your drivers license. This is a poll tax and will be fought but it’s best to tell them to knock this shit off now before it gets any further
BREAKING NEWS: The U.S. House of Representatives just passed the SAVE America Act, which makes it harder for millions of Americans to vote.

This bill requires all voters to show proof of citizenship to register to vote and photo ID to vote at the polls.

Now, it heads to the Senate.

For people who don't follow the FDA closely: this is insane. Like my jaw hit the floor when I saw this. The FDA is flat out refusing to even consider Moderna's application for a new flu vaccine? The federal health apparatus is fully compromised by anti-vax conspiracy. THIS IS NUTS! BAD

We can keep our eye on the Epstein scandal, and also remember that Minnesota is still being terrorized by our government. Look at these great Americans. If they can face down lawless secret police in their bathrobes, we can keep calling Congress.
Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones.

Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

The president of OpenAI has donated almost as much to Trump as the DNC has cash on hand www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...
Democratic donors have spent a year frozen, largely out of justified anger at the consultant class, the spammy texts, and lack of leadership from some elected leaders.

That anger, however, is also hurting outside groups doing critical work — and that could hurt us in November.

Every single person responsible for the horrors inflicted upon these children must be held accountable
Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.

“He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

Any election under these requirements will, by definition, not be free & fair, given the unbelievable scale of voter suppression & disenfranchisement that it will cause.
“The SAVE Act will require voters to show proof of citizenship in order to register to vote in federal elections…”

“Only half of Americans hold a valid passport…Birth certificates are also problematic for many married women [whose] name may be different than the name on her birth certificate.”
My new piece is up and it requires your URGENT ATTENTION!

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵
