I'm just your average hippie that became a crone. Love to hike, cook, garden, make 'art' and fuck up the patriarchy. I marched in the early 70's for reproductive freedom & now I'm marching again in my 70's. WTF! Pronouns she/her 🚫DMs

The Dow was at 43,488 when Trump took office. It just hit 50,000.

So if you had invested $43,488 in the US, you would now have $50,000. But if you had invested the same amount in the rest of the world, you would now be worth $60,000.

What does “Dow 50,000” actually tell you—anything about the economy, or just that a number got bigger? Dow 50,000 is a milestone, not a measurement. The level of the Dow is basically arbitrary: it’s…

O'Keefe to Homan: "2 agents now on leave bc video evidence shows sworn testimony appears to be untruthful. DHS initially said officer who shot the migrant was being ambushed. Combine that w/ 2 deadly shootings & a Chicago incident where evidence contradicted govt - does this undermine trust in ICE?"

Tired of hearing "Minneapolis won" or "Minnesota won." No. We lost bigtime. Our state government failed to activate the National Guard to do anything more than serve donuts and coffee. State/local cops aided the enemy. It was only the citizenry's refusal to capitulate that's driving ICE off.

During the clearing operations, the Ukrainians use bombs based on TM-62 mines, which they drop into buildings where Russians are resisting.

Sort of gives away the lie that they're arresting hardened criminals who are drags on society when they're setting up traps to lure in Good Samaritans
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

Sadly, ICE learned what not to do in Minnesota… they have not left… but are spreading out in disguise tricking and nabbing people before we can respond. We need a new plan….

Wow! This is some top-notch investigative journalism. The report claims the 3 million Epstein files released are only 2% of the total.

The massive scale of what’s still missing is hard to comprehend.

I think @wajali.bsky.social was clear. He acknowledges the current fight, but asks @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social to lead on the long term goal of abolishing ICE. I don’t understand the leader’s reticence on that very simple, and frankly moderate position.
A simple ? from Wajahat Ali pushes Hakeem Jeffries into a crashout:

"Why not lead and abolish ICE? What you're telling us is you want our taxpayer dollars to pay for a lawless masked armed agency to continue terrorizing our cities."

Jeffries: "I don't understand anything you just said to me."
