Anyone else find it strange that 7 of the richest men on Earth aren't just billionaires, but also media barons?
Musk, Ellison, Bezos, Arnault, Brin, Page, Zuckerberg.
They own the feeds, papers, platforms and narratives that shape our reality and no one says a word.🚩

BANNON ON MINNEAPOLIS: “In the fog of war (with who?), we have to hold the line. There can be no de-escalation. You don’t need to bring down the temperature — raise the temperature.”

He says more 5 year-olds need to be rounded up with their parents

ICE domestic terrorists were sent by Trump and his administration to terrorise, humiliate and kill the residents of Minneapolis. They executed the VA nurse in cold blood, then their superiors lied that Alex Pretti was "a domestic terrorist".

It’s just nuts to me that senior DOJ officials are on social media all day shitposting and trolling. The unprofessionalism and psychosis is unfathomable to anyone who has ever worked for any DOJ agency - especially the posts about pending investigations and prosecutions.

More authoritarianism and intimidation. This is not about 2020. That’s the smokescreen. This is about the midterms and 2028. There will be a lot more of this in the coming months.

RAND PAUL: If a country bombed our air defense missiles, captured & removed our president, & blockaded our country, would that be considered an act of war?

RUBIO: We just don't believe this operation comes anywhere close to the constitutional definition

PAUL: Of course it would be an act of war!

Goebbels Lite is suggesting that he is thinking of having the DHS agents who murdered Pretti prosecuted so as to avoid facing any accountability himself. They should of course be prosecuted for the murder, but so should Noem, Miller, Trump and JD Vance for their respective roles.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

This may be the best and only opportunity we get to pressure the Senate to defund ICE.

PLEASE take the time to call Republican Senators up for reelection and tell them it needs to be DEFUNDED and nothing less will suffice.

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.

“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."
