The MAGA GOP leadership (in particular) constitute a racist, sexist, ageist, xenophobic, eugenicist death cult. We must stop them before they succeed in fulfilling their aims.
FDA won't even *consider* Moderna's app to approve its new mRNA flu vaccine, despite (1) the protocol FDA now objects to was previously approved by it, and (2) the new vax is more effective than conventional ones.

Trump is bombing the wrong people. If he doesn’t have the stomach for it, then give the Ukrainians a couple hundred cruise missiles. That’s $200 million— chump change for the US budget.
NEW: Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov continued to explicitly blame the US on February 10 for the lack of progress in ending Russia’s war against Ukraine and reinvoked the Spring 2022 Istanbul talks to justify Russia’s rejection of Ukraine receiving meaningful security guarantees. 🧵(1/5)

this is profoundly accurate. quite frankly, saying stuff like this is one of the most accurate tells for “I am a person who has had exceedingly limited to zero experience outside of the U.S..”
“Americans are uniquely bad and were never cool” is, ironically, just about the most provincially American opinion it is possible to have

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.

"All I'm asking is for clarification, who are you and why am I being detained," recalled Romero, who said the men responded: "I'm gonna [expletive] blow your head off"

“While the FBI field office in Boise initially said in a statement that claims of children being zip-tied were ‘completely false,’ officials there later amended that assertion, telling reporters that no ‘young’ children were zip-tied.”

During the Japanese Internment, their property was confiscated by the government and/or sold for as little as 10% of their value to locals.
I just wonder what happens to immigrants' homes and other property when they're send to a camp and deported?

Worth watching this in full. The statement is more powerful than this quote alone. Here is is from USA Today, with alt text.
Also! Rich Ruohonen is a personal injury lawyer and the oldest athlete to ever represent the United States in a Winter Games at 54 years old.

Everyone here has had to decide what they will and won’t do. Will you take someone in your house? Will you bring them groceries? Will you patrol streets with a whistle? Will you do some other kind of work, of which there are many. And how many of these types.

ICE just indiscriminately stopped a citizen at a bus stop in front of the co-op. If this is how they treat the President of the Minneapolis City Council who is legally observing, just think of what they’re doing to everyone else in our City.
