WATCH: “There’s more gun violence in 🇺🇸 because there are more guns. I think it’s pretty simple.”

Surrounded by Gen Z conservatives hopped up on Fox talking points, @timmiller.bsky.social of @thebulwark.com makes a powerful case for common sense gun laws.

Whoops!!! Is Musk a traitor?!?!?
I’m still enjoying how MAGA Twitter will never live down that they’re all troll farms from Russia and Bangladesh. The whole MAGA ‘movement’ has been fake bullshit from top to bottom from the very beginning.

He’s a criminal!!!
Once men start murdering for the state, once men start using the weapons of war (believing their actions are sanctioned by God and country)—this is a train rolling downhill. It is what resided at the heart of all inquisitions. Killing people on presumption is lawless, tyrannical, irrational, immoral
If the U.S. was at war, Pete Hegseth's order would be a war crime, a military lawyer said. Instead, it might just be murder. wapo.st/49KbUJ1

Hegseth is a war criminal and I think it doesn’t get the attention it deserves because he’s also stupid and it’s hard to reconcile the gravity of his crimes with his clownish persona www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.

Hang on, a pause is by definition temporary. Permanent is the opposite of temporary. “Permanent pause” is an oxymoron, a contradiction. If you want to be president of the US, don’t you think you should learn English, @realDonaldTrump ?

Persist!!!
Police threatened to disperse our national convention for peace and justice on this land over “provocative” messaging (a sign with the words “getting out of Gaza”). Sadly, this isn’t surprising. But it also won’t stop us.

Why is this happening to our military?? They are our sons and daughters!!!
There's a danger within our military that not enough people are talking about:

Flight crashes are killing our troops at record rates.

I'm pushing for answers to get to the bottom of this.

Our Solidarity Guard was in the Bedouin-Palestinian village of Khan al Ahmar to do protective presence for residents facing settler harassment. All of us need to refuse this reality, fight to end the occupation, and demand an alternative of real safety and independence for all on this land.

The Israeli police are WRONG! We must all fight this type of behavior— regardless the victim!!!
Just another day with Ben-Gvir's police force, whose goal is to humiliate and oppress Palestinians across the land. This time, the police decided to break into a children's play in East Jerusalem and disperse everyone with threats...

Honored to join Israelis for Peace, @standing-together.bsky.social, and @bradlander.bsky.social. We mourn, we pray, and we stand united — Jewish, Muslim, Palestinian, Israeli New Yorkers — demanding compassion, courage, and real leadership. We keep the hope of peace alive by showing up together.

Your Black Friday reminder that in 75% of U.S. industries, a smaller number of companies now control more of the business than they did twenty years ago. We must stop the monopolization of America. Shop small if you can, please.

Inhumane.
Beyond depraved: "Hours after her detainment, court documents obtained by ABC News show that a federal judge ordered the government not to remove the 19-year-old from the U.S. and not to transfer her outside of Massachusetts. But Lopez Belloza was deported to Honduras the next day."

YES! All those stores and more! Shop local business!
196 million people shop Thanksgiving weekend. If even a fraction of us refuse to bankroll companies enabling harm, the message is seismic. Skip Target, Amazon, and Home Depot.

If you don’t know how close this race is, this was a previously +22 Republican district! It’s now a 2 point race and likely getting closer each day. If you have extra time to spare this holiday season, check out this chance to help flip a gerrymandered district in Tennessee. Let’s Flip This Seat!

Number one domestic terror threat remains white supremacist violent and radical right wing groups. Not a peep about it from the Trump Administration. In fact they scrubbed the data from the DOJ.

FLASHBACK: “Do you feel lucky to get out of here without an investigation? How many girls were there?”

The Holler’s Kanew asked a retiring Rep. Byrd about girls he apologized for sexually abusing.

This is what @aftynbehn.bsky.social was protesting.
