So much insane respect for the people of Minneapolis and Minnesota out their representing, striking, protesting and out their straight up protecting. Straight bravery and courage

Minneapolis Discovered Its Own Strength Fighting ICE Tyranny - The American Prospect
Trump’s goons thought they could push around a blue city. They came in for a nasty shock.

With everything going on, we need to focus on the important. What happened to Trump’s “Press Secretary” KKKaroline Leavitt’s nose? Is it some weird ode to Michael Jackson? Do Nazi reps noses just naturally get skanky small like that?

Absolutely insanely bad week for the United States, but personally three fantastic bright spots:
-My youngest at Regionals, ridiculously great
-UK Mens Basketball came back from 16pt. deficits against LSU and TN both away games.

This is why I’m running for City Council. I will fire any cop pulling anything remotely like this. This is our country our cities, not theirs,…its ours.
Police arrested volunteers for feeding hungry people in Kansas City after 13 years of doing it without incident. Nearby businesses complained, blamed immigrants, and threatened ICE. Two volunteers were charged with trespassing. Kansas City Food Not Bombs feeds 50–100 people weekly. More cruelty 🤬

Chuck Schumer is the biggest jagoff ever, totally impotent and totallly pathetic
When most of the news is centered in Minneapolis and you insist on talking about something completely different, that's not "tight messaging" or whatever, it's just cluelessness
Schumer as a major American metro is being brutally occupied by Trump goons: "The affordability crisis will be our focus throughout 2026 because that's what the American people are demanding"

This whole week has been crap for the country. But, UK stealing a win from LSU last night was fantastic. An inbound 80 foot pass and turn around jumper as time expired.

Reason #4,822 Why Unions rock. You can basically tell the President to fuck off and just get suspended from your job. Plus, you get a 250K-500K kicker for your good deeds from an adoring public
It was at 56k when I donated.
I want this legend to be able to retire by the end of the month.

Hell yes, UAW workers reprazent
Bless the Ford worker who called Donald Trump a pedophile protector to his face today, which made President Pedo Protector throw up his tiny middle finger.

Larry Ellison’s bucktooth failson and Bari Weiss are such insane stupid dunces. They ruined CBS in like one month. I never really watched CBS before. Now, I will never watch it again
CBS News lost one-fifth of its audience in just four days.” 👏

It sounds conspiracy but you could not honestly create a better vehicle to try and dismantle the US industrial base, infrastructure, and society more than Trump, the Republican Party and Project 2025. Russians cannot remotely build a society but they are experts at tearing ones down, expert.
Incredible how anti-American Trump is:
1. He is blowing up all US foreign alliances.
2. He is doing his utmost to undermine the $ by attacking the Federal Reserve & driving up inflation.
3. He is isolating the US economy with tariffs.
Xi & Putin could not hope for a better POTUS.

Nice,…and we haven’t even got started yet. We will get them all

Keep the receipts, @iceunmasked.bsky.social
be doing it. We’re coming for them, after Trump is gone. Nothing will save them.

If Trump isn’t dead yet RW Scott Adams would be a nice appetizer

Last week was insanely horrible but UK Mens Basketball beat Miss St. and #6 UK Women’s beat #5 Oklahoma
So it’s end of the Republic but the “Sun shines bright(er)” on the Commonwealth. Off the court, we are going to win too.

Centrist Corporate “Democrats” will not be tolerated. Primary, push out and/or smash. The Democratic Party is the party of Bernie Sanders, AOC, and Zohran Mamdani. Not Klobuchar, Jeffries or Schumer.
"A chronic, devastating cancer in American society is prominent Democrats outright refusing to share their constituents' urgency and horror in the face of what is being done to society by Republicans, and insisting instead upon an empty, delusional performance of sobriety and professionalism."

Insanely spot on, North Carolina at it’s worst is a 50-50 state. Currently, out of 14 US Representatives.. FOUR 4 of 14 are Democrats. That’s bordering on occupation. NC deserves so much better and, no wish casting, they will go 8/9 Democratic in the least. That state is prime.
Funny. Every time I look at our General Assembly, I see a dark, menacing gerrymandered cloud that feeds off the misery of its own citizens. #ncpol
