every person involved in this needs to be in prison
“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Again, if you are looking to speak out against what’s going on, I cannot recommend attending a #TeslaTakedown enough. Find one in your area, show up and hang out with cool people who also care, and it’s a great way to make connections to get further involved in your local community.
Tesla Takedown | Take action at Tesla showrooms everywhere.
The stakes couldn’t be higher. No one is coming to save us—not politicians, not the media.

I found a red lipstick that looks like the right kind of red for my skin tone to reflect the Victory Red vibe. Reminder: this space is anti-fascist, pro punching n@zis, and in favor of socialist community supports funded by taxes.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social FYI the VA PMS system is locked/down? I myself am a service provider to veterans, & I cannot request reimbursement for services from Oct-Dec 2024. It's not just me: No one can get in. Is this Musk/DOGE? PLEASE INVESTIGATE

Any four Republican Senators could stop this at any time simply by threatening to block all action (or even caucus with the Democrats) if Trump doesn't make certain concessions. They won't, but that should be a much bigger story than whether the Democrats are doing everything that *they* can.

I have so much medical trauma after the last few years. Today I didn't get the exam I need because they scheduled me wrong. I argued with two different phlebotomists about where they could take my blood. I'm now scheduled for mid-April. I wanna go home and cry.

As someone else pointed out this is the exact same trick Elon played at his companies. It’s not a “buyout.” The money has not been authorized by Congress. They are playing games. Don’t fall for this bullshit.

At start of RFK Jr. hearing, Sen. Ron Wyden calls the anti-vaxxer a conspiracy theory-monger who embraces “quacks and charlatans” and who “chases money and influence wherever they lead, even if it means the death of children and other vulnerable people.”

But now that people have seen the details, please stop calling it a buyout. It is not. At best, it is a compelled resignation.
