ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.

If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

This kind of reminds me of the film Don't Look Up - although instead of an impending asteroid strike that presents a danger to humanity, Harris was warning the USA about an increasingly unhinged and extreme felon with multiple convictions who was behind a failed military coup to seize power.

As a hobby, I have personally laid off 3,000 CIA agents who now have nothing but free time and resentment. This was probably a smart decision

The fact that Deepseek R1 was released three days /before/ Stargate means these guys stood in front of Trump and said they needed half a trillion dollars while they knew R1 was open source and trained for $5M.

Beautiful.

The only way we're going to make a difference is to cause financial harm to the people who funded the fourth reich.

If enough people are serious, we could organize a boycott against any company who donated to Trump and insurrectionists in Congress.
Curious what everyone thinks is the best way to have a positive or any impact on the country, during the first 30 days of the new administration.

Our unfair labor practice (ULP) strikes will begin Friday morning and escalate each day through Christmas Eve… unless Starbucks honors our commitment to work towards a foundational framework.

The crowning irony—besides the fact that this wage-withholding Scrooge is the richest person ever—is that Musk himself sucks assiduously from the government teat.
Elon Musk Is Already Scamming Washington
He’s the richest person in human history, yet he’s trying to deny meager raises for lawmakers and doesn’t care if federal workers go unpaid over the holidays.
