honestly tired of trying to convince people that trump's immigration policy is not really about violent undocumented immigrants or even just undocumented immigrants, but immigrants in general and even non-white people more broadly.
cool, cool. so we are sort of like citizens, but not really?

All y’all have to get people together in carpools to make sure everyone who wants to bring democracy back to the USA has a success full registration and to be confident in their signature should they choose a postal vote.

Because I grew up in QLD in the ‘80s, I’m more often surprised when police *don’t* attack demonstrators. So I’ve had that familiar feeling this week of watching people come to a difficult truth: when you see a demo turn ugly, it’s almost always because the cops decided that’s how it was gonna go.
The cop riot
So, first things first, a big congrats to Angus Taylor.

History has plenty of examples of what you can choose to do.
There needs to be some serious accountability for the colossal harm to life these absolute demons have caused, and will cause. Life in prison is the moderate option.

I hope everyone with access to a telephone in USA calls their congresspeople & senators to tell them this.

Yelling into the social media maelstrom is good because it makes people aware & spreads the word.
But ALL Y’ALL need to be yelling into the phone at your reps every day until the deed is done

Epstein survivor Haley Robson: I’m so tired of having this administration just completely dismiss us. They’re supposed to be the party of, you know, family values and protecting children. And I just feel like if that’s the party you are, it seems like Thomas Massie is the only one showing up for it.

Based on this, genius here tells the world to come at me with guns because I only have a knife “embedded” (whatever the fuck that means) in the wall. So while I’m trying to yank the knife out of the wall you can pop me from 15m away.

Much smart
So strategy
Very brains

One less woman in the Liberal party, one tokened into the deputy position.

I’m not saying Hume is not capable, but it would be great for them if they had more senior women in the party.

The right's "whatabout Laken Riley?" deflection deliberately ignores the fact her killer has already been tried, convicted and sentenced to life in prison without parole. The only reason they bring her up is to justify the brutalization and terror of ICE and CBP against thousands of innocents.

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.
