Today marks the beginning of (hopefully only) 4 incredibly hard years not only for progressive voices the US but for the whole world.

Stand together. Be supportive. And allow yourself to be fucking hatefull. Allow yourself to tell people you despise them. Don't be fooled into 'no hate uwu'. Fuckem.
Sometimes I think about the days when a better future had been possible.

This is bleak: Jes Staley, currently CEO of Barclays, reassuring Epstein that popular revolt against financial elites is unlikely because capitalism and pop culture have defanged social movements, leaving people more invested in consumption than justice.

Having a chat with a coworke about generative AI (while waiting for another group to get their work done so we can do something today), and the accidental banger of "About the only thing current 'AI' generates for me is disappointment" has been instantly burned into my vocabulary.

Chris Murphy: "I sat with the kids for an hour. They saw things in these prisons they'll never forget. The bottom line is we have a constitutional obligation to only fund an administration that's operating lawfully. We cannot, we should not fund DHS if it committing these crimes."

Der Trick der AfD ist so simpel: Sie sagt, sie sei gegen "Illegale". Klingt vernünftig, aber es gibt so gut wie gar keine. Sie nennt deshalb alle mit Migrationshintergrund "illegal", auch wenn's gelogen ist. Sie will sie erst zu "Illegalen" machen. Und das ist "illegal" – also verfassungsfeindlich.

We now have confirmation that the Social Circle warehouse cost ICE $130 million, bringing the total spent on warehouses to $714 million. ICE is also reportedly planning on buying a second warehouse in Oakwood, GA and is finalizing the sale now.

Billions more will be spent on retrofitting/staffing.

THEY ARE BUYING UP WAREHOUSES TO HOLD HUMAN BEINGS IN DETENTION INDEFINITELY.

I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

Moore: “In December alone, I think we believe that something like 30,000 Russians were killed in one month.

“That’s as many as they lost in a 10-year campaign in Afghanistan.

“The losses are terrible and even the Russians will struggle to replace that level of losses.”

All flights to and from El Paso, Texas, have been grounded for ten days for “Special Security Reasons”, the Federal Aviation Administration announced.

Shutting down airspace of a major US city for such an extended period hasn’t happened since the aftermath of 9-11.
