3 dead so far at Krome ICE detention center in Florida. Max capacity was 500, they have over 4,000 and not enough water and food. Reports say they get 1 cup of water per day.

These are already death camps.

No shower for days, cameras trained on the toilet, women crammed into cells 'like sardines,' among the allegations.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

I know pointing out hypocrisy doesn’t matter anymore, but if there’s one person I wouldn’t want to be the judge of who goes into locker rooms, it would be the man who openly boasted about walking into dressing rooms of underage girls

1. BREAKING

The White House late Friday fired the independent inspectors general of at least 12 major federal agencies in a purge that could clear the way for President Trump to install loyalists in the crucial role of identifying fraud, waste and abuse in the government.

Elon Musk doing the Nazi salute at Trump’s inauguration rally. Did it twice, actually.

Don’t waste time arguing with the people telling us that’s not what happened. They’re not mistaken, they are engaged in propaganda.

Faced with authoritarianism in power, it is crucial we trust our own eyes.

Ok, @dieworkwear.bsky.social is now active here too. There's no reason to go back.
In 1942, at the height of the Second World War, Alfred Eisenstaedt photographed sweethearts bidding each other farewell before the men depart for war, not knowing if they'd ever return. These candid shots give us a glimpse of what average Americans wore.
