The United States is destroying itself | Rebecca Solnit The daily news can’t adequately convey the administration’s sabotaging of our government, economy, alliances and environment

“The United States is being murdered, and it’s an inside job. Every department, every branch, every bureau and function of the federal government is being fatally corrupted or altogether dismantled or disabled.”

Presidementia attacks Pope Leo as "WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy" as one does in the wacky, backwards, upside-down Bizarro White House.

(a downright miracle considering he's never been to church before)!

If the government dropped a bomb that took my kid from me, I wouldn’t be thinking about politics or strategy. I’d be thinking about who did it, and how far I’d have to go to make them feel what I felt. People act surprised when the world gets more dangerous, but this is exactly how it happens.

And now I guess i'm gonna have to watch this...

Meanwhile, in Germany, the public weighs in on what they think of the Epstein Administration.

Wow.

I agree they are better candidates. However, I don't think that they're electable candidates. With all of the incredible momentum and record-breaking fundraising that Kamala Harris had, and she still couldn't win. After Clinton also lost. It's a pipe dream to think a woman can win. Let's be honest.

I miss my wife.

Today, we would have laughed & joked about how stupid & commercial this manufactured holiday is.

And still, we would have watched ridiculous romantic comedies, stuffed ourselves with chocolate strawberries, & exchanged sappy love notes in cheesy Hallmark cards.

Now is only grief.

If we are replacing people with AI lets replace billionaires first.

Massive savings and it's not difficult to program an AI that just talks garbage.

Maria Santay, a U.S. citizen and community observer, live-streamed masked ICE agents detaining her after they boxed in her car from all sides and smashed her window. Local police showed up and did nothing.

She was denied access to a restroom, and forced to pee in the parking lot while handcuffed.

Correction. You and your ancestors are an immigrant even if you did come over on the Mayflower.

Everyone who came over on the Mayflower was an invader and a colonizer.

Just to be very clear. The only natives of this country are the Indigenous population white Europeans committed genocide against.

But let's not forget Bill Clinton. Doesn't matter what 'party' he belongs to. There is enough smoke there he needs to be fully investigated too. And we need to be seen loudly saying clearly that we want justice for the victims no matter who the criminals are.

It hasn’t gone unnoticed that all four people arrested today, including two journalists, were Black.

And now we find out the charge is “conspiracy to violate civil rights,” a statute rooted in the Ku Klux Klan Act.

Sit with that.

These are not for undocumented immigrants.

Not in the end. We know what these are for eventually.

They may be 'warehouses' but in another Era they would have been called 'camps'.

JANE FONDA: “I know Don Lemon. My husband created CNN. And I will fight for their right to speak… they arrested the wrong Don. This is how autocrats act. We can’t fall for it.”

I grew up with Alex Pretti The kind-hearted ICU nurse shot by ICE agents was my childhood best friend.

I wrote about my childhood friend Alexi Pretti. Please read it and share it and remember him as a human being. @theverge.com

Every day seems harder than the last. #grief #griefjourney #cancersucks #loss

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

A new video appears to show the moments leading up to a fatal shooting by federal agents in Minneapolis, with the individual appearing to simply record on his phone as agents escalated the situation.

He was executed for carrying his cellphone!!!!!!

I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

Isn't this why automatic weapons were originally banned in the first place before they were eventually given back when the black people stopped carrying them & the white people started carrying them... Now look at this. Can we also get the queers involved? We'll have guns band nationwide in no time.

That is an amazing accomplishment , and you should be incredibly proud of yourself.

Alabama uses Japanese American Internment era law to charge immigrants who don’t self-register Alabama is finding new ways to criminally charge undocumented immigrants

Do we need to say it louder? Here. Louder.

" Federal courts in Alabama are using a law last applied during the U.S. internment [incarceration] of people of Japanese descent during World War II to charge immigrants who don’t register themselves..."
