It's so bizarre to see a doctor on a tv show saying someone's pelvic exam proved they were a virgin. Ummm. Whether someone is a virgin or not is not something that anyone can tell from a pelvic exam. Sheesh.

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

H-2A worker "recriuters" who steal passports, threaten deportation, force marriage, starve children, withhold pay, or use violence are criminal human traffickers - they belong in prison.

Don’t forget that this whole “we’re being invaded by Venezuelan gangs” canard started as Trumpian campaign propaganda made possible by corrupt local politicians and landlords in Aurora, CO. coloradonewsline.com/2024/09/19/t...
The greatest threat to Aurora is not a gang. It's dishonest council members. • Colorado Newsline
Aurora council members who spread falsehoods about gang threats failed the most basic duty of any public servant — to protect the public.

"The Black Panther paper regularly published articles about the GI resistance movement and republished articles from different GI papers ... For example, the paper uplifted the story of the Fort Hood 43, a group of Black GIs who refused to go to Chicago as 'riot control' for the [DNC] in 1968."
The security state and its broad sweeping apparatus depends on people complying, assisting, and enacting the state’s demands. This need for our consent is why the legacy of GI resistance, in all its manifestations, is important to study and build on right now.
GI Resisters Have Long Refused Illegal Orders — Now They Must Refuse Trump
Trump can’t use the military to terrorize US cities if soldiers refuse to back him up.

Big sigh. Watch this.
Can you see why the Yankees’ moment of silence, the lowered flags, the promise of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, feel like a gut punch to the very people he spent years targeting?
No one wished death on this man, but what we’re seeing right now is too f*cking much.

A look inside an ICE recruitment fair held at an e-sports stadium in Texas.
They want to hire 10,000 deportation officers—offering big signing bonuses, low barriers to entry, and other perks.
The saddest part? All the women, immigrants, and people of color eagerly signing on the dotted line. 😞

DEVELOPING: ICE agents in Los Angeles are nothing but state-sanctioned thugs. One sprinted from behind a fence, tackled a protester, and the pack unloaded on bystanders with “less lethal” rounds.
Then they dragged him across 4 lanes of traffic like prey. This is organized brutality.
