@premthakker.bsky.social reports on an unarmed civilian killed by state agents — and the propaganda campaign that followed.

Everything Is Russiagate truly lol
The cynics think today's attack on Venezuela is staged and transactional. Maduro is allied with Putin, but in 2019 Putin offered Trump a swap: Russia cedes Venezuela and gets Ukraine. (See Fiona Hill's testimony in Trump's first impeachment trial, h/t @davetroy.com). Even Maduro may be in on it. 2/

Memo to President Zelensky:
If you’re headed to the White House, take a page from Mamdani’s diplomacy manual: flatter the décor and the dictator.

Tell Trump his gold-leaf office is pure Versailles. Compliment the ballroom, say it’s “palatial”. You’ll have a new best friend.

Ghislaine Maxwell lied about Trump never going to Epstein's house (directly contradicted by her email correspondence with Epstein), and she was rewarded for that lie with a transfer to a cushier prison. The coverup is happening in plain sight.

We have ~5% unemployment but 40 million people on food stamps. This is the real argument

“Since AFP was founded in 1944, we have lost journalists in conflicts, some have been injured, others taken prisoner.

But none of us remember witnessing colleagues die of hunger"
A horrifying statement published today by the Editorial Committee of the Agence France-Presse (AFP) news agency.

"Without immediate intervention, the last reporters in Gaza will die"

You don't "not recall" telling DOJ lawyers to say "fuck you" to court orders. You either remember saying it, or you remember that you definitely didn't say it. Emil Bove saying he doesn't recall means he definitely said it, and there's a roomful of people that can testify to it.

Yup. He's the revenge and triumph of society's losers. The C and D students who dropped out of HS not bc of hardship but bc they were too lazy to finish; ppl who felt punished for being bigots; the incels and trust fund babies who wanted power; one big loser tent led by a greasy orange loose stool.

If Trump really wanted to honor fallen soldiers he'd resign rather than disgrace everything they fought for.

The anti-semitism angle was always a false flag to help Trump get his revenge on elite universities. Nothing more.

Trump heard "Har-something" and a Black voice so he immediately went into talking about Harlem instead of Harvard lmao
asked by Stephen A. Smith about his Harvard shakedown, Trump starts ranting about Harlem and says "I got a very high Black vote"

Signal-gate and the Social Security scandal show how tyranny works: the regime can do no wrong, and the people have no rights.

They claim it wasn't classified info in the chat, but Goldberg can be prosecuted. DOGE doesn't want to disclose their workers names, but wants your social security info.
