US rep Al Green has announced the motion to impeach Trump over his threats to invade Gaza and help Israel finish the ethnic cleansing of Palestine.
"I rise to announce that I will bring Articles of Impeachment against the president for dastardly deeds proposed and dastardly deeds done." #FreeGaza📹🧵

This article is well worth the read to brush up on history and see just how scarily similar in comparison these moments from Germany then, are to what is unfolding in America right now, and why references to Germany 1933 aren’t far fetched… we all need to prepare for the global fall out.
I am worried our 53 days may have begun already.

Make it 1933 again, but the internet is censored and people can’t speak up about what is happening. Dangerous times. Zuckerberg is complicit after removing “fact checking”.
Meta is reportedly censoring videos about the ICE ethnic cleansing operations.
They are in my city. Two blocks away they raided our international grocery store and took 6 Hispanic workers. I posted the video to Facebook and it was immediately taken down. This is absolutely insane. We have to do something!!!!

If you’re making zines, maybe consider making them by hand. Printers make tracking dots that are like unique fingerprints.
Apparently this was to protect against counterfeit money & track counterfeiters, but this could be used against anything printed.

Good morning Bluesky,
It’s Friday and I want all of you to do something nice for yourself this weekend.
Doesn’t matter how small the thing is.
Also, say something nice to a stranger.
The smallest glimmer of light in times of darkness can be the difference between life & death for someone.

Let’s make Bluesky the app that it could be. An app for hope & goodness. 1 like = 1 thing I love
Okay this seems like a wholesome way to ground myself rn
1 like = 1 thing I love
1 like = 1 thing I love
I don't even know if I like things! However:
1 like = 1 thing I love

There is no reason to negotiate with Trump, the rest of the world needs to become self sufficient without the United States. It can be done and should be done.

I am not telling people not to pay taxes, obviously. But I am going to acknowledge here that as our government becomes more and more lawless, more and more people will ask the question below.
Billionaires are now stripping our government there. At what point will middle-class voters just...opt out?

AGAIN WHY SHOULD I PAY TAXES WHEN THE LAW DOESNT APPLY ANYMORE.
CNN reports that the January 6 criminals have been told they are invited to attend inaugural balls tonight. They are going to be released from the D.C. jail momentarily.

We are not a democracy anymore, folks. We do not have rule of law.

Explaining in Five Paragraphs the Scam Donald Trump Just Pulled on 150 Million American TikTok Users
Make no mistake, one of the most popular apps in the world was just down in the U.S. for 14 hours because Donald Trump ordered that it be taken down. Why? So he could be seen as a hero in “saving” it.

Attention, 🦋 friends! A huge influx of users to Bluesky is happening now, due to a) Threads (Meta) ending content moderation and hiring Dana White, b) Musk encouraging Twitter users to block all replies from anyone not paying him.

Recently took a peek at Twitter and the disinformation is getting substantially more dangerous. Someone could get killed.
The tactics of constantly repeating outright lies, targeting specific people, repurposing years-old footage and presenting them as new is getting to another level. It’s scary.
