  1. I know that it's not comfortable for the majority of all backgrounds but what we're seeing is just US policing. ICE is the NYPD, the CPD etc... on the daily.

  2. You’ll notice how in none of these photos is he interacting with or assisting the people whose possessions he is throwing in the trash. This is what he thinks passes for a leadership photo op, no solution, no place for them to go, no path toward health and housing, just making them more defenseless.

    while smiling!

    Gavin Newsom literally dressed up in his best Bad Boy™️ attire, invited the press, and smiled as he destroyed everything these constituents had in the world.

    Gavin Newsom is not a bad candidate;

    Gavin Newsom is truly, at his core, a bad and despicable human being.

  3. why does he always look like his mom just walked in him watching porn

    Friendly reminder that AI data centers are working overtime to help cook the planet. If the fires are scaring you— start using ‘-AI’ at the end of all Google searches to cut out any AI response to your query. Refusal is possible & responsible.

    CAPITOL POLITICS

BREAKING
Governor Mike Braun (R-IN) says interracial marriage should be left up to the state
Mike Braun said the Supreme Court was wrong to legalize interracial marriage before he was governor - arguing that decision should've been left to individual states. Now, those past comments are resurfacing as his actions in office spark new concerns.

    Every person who said 'states rights' wanted Black people excluded from public life. Every person who thought it was reasonable sounding and did not know that was being fooled.

    When they say "no trans athletes" they are setting the stage for no trans people everywhere. It's already playing out.

  5. We need to stop treating law enforcement as politically neutral. They have never been. Their presence is a political statement. Every interaction they have with civilians is political speech.

  6. more than anything else, this is the biggest problem in UK politics, because if there isn't a clear cordon sanitaire between centre right and far right then your only bulwark against fascism is 'the left (here very, very broadly defined) wins elections forever', which is quite a big ask

    Kemi Badenoch has overseen the absolute collapse of any semblance of a border for the right. Under her leadership you have shadow ministers at far right rallies, mayoral candidates joining other parties, and seemingly half their outriders explicitly doubting whether Rishi Sunak is English.

    So all those good, professional, apolitical soldiers who'd never take a fascist order are gonna refuse to deploy to US cities any time now, right
