If you want more American flags at protests, you are welcome to go to the protests and fly one. No one will stop you. You yourself can create that picture of tolerance and pluralism.

But don't sit on the sidelines and tell a community under racist assault not to assert its right to exist.

this 'Israel has a right to exist AS A JEWISH NATION' rhetorical shift is so telling. What happened to the beautiful multicultural democracy in the middle east you were all talking about a couple years ago

one note: most communities have mutual aid orgs you can help out by delivering food, boxing food, growing food, collecting food etc and they usually let you take food with you in exchange. a good way to connect to the community and comrades and help get food you need!

If RFK really cared about kids - he'd stop with conspiracies and start looking at clean water and air.

He'd fight for medicare for all and not stand by while kids die of measles.

He'd fight against cuts to childhood cancer research.

Trump's counterterrorism czar Sebastian Gorka suggests opposition to their immigration policy is "aiding and abetting" terrorists.

"And you have to ask yourself: are they technically aiding and abetting them? Because aiding and abetting criminals and terrorists is a crime in federal statute."

In the "empathy is going to get us through" vein and hoping to inspire more people, I went and served breakfast at the family shelter in Columbus this morning. Go out and help people in your community.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll continue the “Degenerate Russia” series. In it, we look behind the Kremlin propaganda and see the real Russia – an authoritarian country that doesn’t care about its people and desperately tries to hold on to its imperialistic past.

among the many crazy things about this statement is that “the diversity of america’s fighting force is how it has triumphed over its enemies” has been a part of american military propaganda since at least the civil war

U.S. megacorps dump mountains of cash into AI, get shown up by a Chinese startup operating at a tiny fraction of the cost, and this guy's takeaway is we need to invest even more in this money pit rather than that our corporations are corrupt. Cool!
The DeepSeek announcement from China has been called by some AI’s “Sputnik moment” for America.

It’s precisely why I made AI a top priority in the last Congress and will keep at it.

So an insane story, a private equity roll-up of fire truck companies is why more than half the fire trucks in Los Angeles were out of service during the catastrophic wildfires in the Palisades and Eaton.

Did a Private Equity Fire Truck Roll-Up Worsen the L.A. Fires?
During the LA fires, dozens of fire trucks sat in the boneyard, waiting for repairs the city couldn't afford. Why? A private equity roll-up made replacing and repairing those trucks much pricier.

A lot of actual cops run protection rings around urban stores too! Call the cops on a shoplifter and they'll say "there's nothing we can do but we can recommend a private security service" and it's run by their (sometimes still on-duty) cop friends bsky.app/profile/lone...
That or the consultants were getting kickbacks from the display lockups, or both things at once.

A lot of people baffled why they did this and I suspect the actual mechanism is that the Loss Prevention Consultants they hired are ex-cop shitheads who watch Fox News all day and thought BLM and anfifa were burning down cities to help the cartel white slavery rings and reasoned out from there

anyone who has ever believed these rich tech billionaires were ever “liberal” are missing the fact that they don’t have principles or beliefs they care only about profitability. a decade ago being “liberal” was profitable, now being conservative is profitable
