If folks in the USA are wondering if the rest of the world is paying attention, I saw a car parked in my village (UK) yesterday flying a Greenland flag. Bought groceries and talked ICE horrors with shop owner. We are aware. You aren't invisible. @kathryntewson.bsky.social

Might we tactfully point out that to obsess negatively with trans people when the richest and most powerful men in the world are trying to reverse centuries of humane progress and equality to acquire impunity for rape and murder shows a weird sense of priorities?

I always found those who said they were pleased by Trump’s position on trans rights a bit conflicted when they also said their anti trans position was about defending women

This government clearly don't really understand the complexity or the danger of the situation. They show no sign of beginning to understand, and every sign of asking the monorail salesman how public transport should work. It's going to be an uphill struggle, but don't leave this to politicians.

No, it's ok that we're having sex in the cinema. There's no one else here.
Something you can say during sex and at the Melania movie.

If I sent a letter saying I would continue to inflict violence and murder on a community unless that community made legal concessions to me, I would go to prison.

Read Bondi’s Letter to Minnesota’s Governor
Attorney General Pam Bondi sent a letter to Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota on Saturday that blamed him and other Democratic officials for allowing “lawlessness” in the state. It was not immediately clear ...

“If your state doesn’t help us we will be forced to murder its citizens” is an argument that only works on people who are already subnormal bootlickers.
Blanche: "Remember, what we all saw in that 10 or second video is not the full story. Every American should know that. The story goes way beyond that. It starts with the fact that literally for months we have received 0 assistance from the state of Minnesota."

And this is seen around the world.
The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:

- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

You don't have to know anything about what the Supreme Court says to understand that the federal government has no legal warrant extort through violence what it is not legally entitled to under constitution and law.

You're not fighting Reform if you're constantly agreeing with them.

You don't defeat far right parties by becoming one.

This is why Starmer is killing the Labour Party. He is bad at politics and bad at government, lacks values, direction, courage, and self-awareness.
NEW: Keir Starmer says Labour should concentrate on improving cost of living & fighting Reform UK rather than internal divisions.

"The single most important thing for people across the country is cost of living & that's why we're bearing down on it in everything we're doing, pulling every lever.

During the Soviet era, at times of govt instability, the state broadcaster would typically preempt scheduled broadcasts by airing performances of Swan Lake
And, tonight, the network's flagship news program -- 60 Minutes -- ran a clip show of old celeb interviews to "celebrate the movies" rather than put together an episode focused on what's going on in Minnesota.
The person who publishes the Free Press — where the words “Minneapolis” and “Minnesota” never appear tonight — also runs CBS News.

In 2023 the UK government legislated that veterans who, like US ICE officers, shot their fellow citizens dead, on camera - for protesting, would never answer in any court - Civil, Criminal or even Coroners. With no pushback from the left or electorate.
In case you think it couldn’t happen here

I grew up hearing stories from my father about how folks abducted by Franco’s secret police would routinely “escape” to the roof of police HQ and “commit suicide.” The obviousness of the lie was itself an intimidation tactic.
"agents told hospital staff that Castaneda Mondragon ... 'purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.'”
A Minnesota man received a life-threatening injury while in ICE custody. It's not clear how he got injured because his memory and ability to communicate are so severely impaired. Agents said "he got his shit rocked." Wild story from @katrinapross.bsky.social sahanjournal.com/health/ice-d...
