The only thing that could make McSweeney’s resignation even better is if it turns out he’s also behind the disastrous anti-trans poison being dripped in the prime minister’s ear. Good riddance if so, and here’s hoping for a less divisive and damaging set of policies.

THE WOMAN WHO WAS DRAGGED OUT OF HER CAR AND ARRESTED BY ICE SPEAKS OUT…

We’ve all seen the videos, but it matters to hear Aliya Rahman say it herself.

📌 She says her treatment in custody was dehumanizing, and that officers completely failed to take her disability seriously.

is it normal for encyclopedias to include “skin tone” or just when they’re generated by a white nationalist’s ai?

So, she was still alive when ICE agents refused to let a physician approach her …

When she was finally allowed medical assistance, she still had an irregular pulse.

She might have lived..?

So, they shot her, and then prevented medical aid
Holy shit.

Renee Good was alive when the bystander physician asked to check her pulse. She was alive when ICE refused to let him help. She was alive when they told him “I don’t care.”

White folks. Watch this. Twice if you have to.

And don’t just listen to her. Understand what it is she is saying.
pulling this reflection on white silence/fear over here, too:

Shock discovery: X only made the limited changes it said it would make, rather than the full climb down that UK ministers claimed as their victory

The main story is the evil brutality.

But anyone hoping for the police to save us from ICE, James Berghaier, the cop who saved a boy Birdie Africa from the fire, (while PPD shot into the fire,) became an outcast, called “n- lover” & was run out of the PPD.

They want us to forget about the Epstein files. We will not.

Sascha Riley (SR), a decorated Iraq war veteran, shares their testimony of being trafficked by Epstein.

*TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️ Includes written description and audio recording of SR's words.

a queer woman lightly mocked an ICE officer so they shot her wife right in front of her. now they’re trying to justify it by making it a capital crime to mock them

in many ways that’s a core tenet of right-wing ideology: Lesser People should be forbidden (by force if necessary) to laugh at you
This is appalling: Top DOJ officials are actively pushing for a criminal investigation into the widow of Renee Good, leading prosecutors to quit en masse, NYT is reporting.

Who in the White House ordered DOJ to do this? That's the next thing to establish.

Yes, I still have books to write and sell and market. On the other hand, the world is on fire and fascism is on the rise. And there are people who want to bring that style of ‘government’ over here?

I want to remind everyone that the predators in the Trump-Epstein files that are still alive never stopped raping kids. That's not a thing. Release the Trump-Epstein files unredacted!

I’m old enough to remember when the Epstein Files were the distraction
Let's be clear. Donald Trump will indict the Fed Chair, kidnap foreign leaders and kill American citizens in MN if it distracts you from asking WTF is in the Epstein files because HIS BASE doesn't like pedophiles. None of this is normal. But everything he does is from weakness right now.

I understand the pressures on the BBC, but Radio 4's coverage of the Minneapolis shooting is an example of "bad balance".

It's all "the Trump regime says she was a terrorist, but Democrats say it was murder".

The BBC has the footage. It doesn't have to treat truth and falsehood as equally valid.

Every once in a while, a celebrity, like Chris O' Dowd or Richard Ayoade or Jimmy Carr* will inch their heads above the parapet and support Graham Linehan.

Why isn't it the job of a journalist to go back to those people and ask them to comment on his supporting ICE shooting a woman in the head?
Graham Linehan claims he detonated his career, his family, his entire life, to protect women. He often asks people to "apologise to their daughters" if they disagree with him on trans rights.

And yet, when someone's daughter is executed by ICE, he shares Right-Wing propaganda that she deserved it.
