First we got a mafia economy. Then we got a mafia state. We must rid ourselves of the ruling criminal class or become its victims.

I wonder what will happen when hundreds of thousands of federal workers are unemployed and unlikely to get their jobs back in this administration. last time we had mass unemployment with no clear path to new jobs, our streets were full of protestors.

Cameras have appeared outside homes of Atlanta’s ‘Cop City’ activists. Why are they there?
Cameras are hidden in unmarked boxes on utility poles in a move residents and advocates call ‘creepy’ and ‘corrosive’

The federal court presiding over the Adams case (which hasn't been dismissed) has inherent power to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate whether there violations of the law being committed. There is cause at this point that an unlawful conspiracy is occurring at the highest levels of DOJ.
Strong rumor with credible sourcing: DOJ has put all of public integrity line attorneys in a room and told them they have an hour for someone to choose who will sign motion to dismiss and if nobody does, they will all be fired. The nastiest strong-arming in DOJ history by a long shot.

Biden set the stage for Trump’s border ramp-up, which was founded on Obama, Bush, Clinton. this has been policy for decades. no free country has a rights-free military-run concentration camp off its borders

I don’t even know where to start with this one. is there even a legal basis for suing a company for having jobs traditionally held by more women occupied by women? is there a right not to wait enshrined in Missouri law? are we abolishing women and nonwhite people in the workplace?
Missouri's AG Andrew Bailey is suing Starbucks, arguing that its workforce is too "female" and "non-white" and as a result Missouri consumers “pay higher prices and wait longer for goods and services" because its workforce is "less qualified"
This is a brazenly racist and sexist lawsuit.

There's something hilarious about seeing some folks scream "resist!!!" when those same folks were denouncing Will Smith hitting Chris Rock because "violence has no place in our society."
If that was your reason for denouncing Smith, I want to see you carry that energy into strongly worded letters.🤣
