When Trump loses power, his assets should be liquidated and returned to the American people.
Tell Congress: Block Trump from ripping away Temporary Protected Status and deporting families who have built lives here.
This cruelty must stop. Protect TPS holders now.

Rachel Maddow just played this video of Jon Ossoff talking about Trump crime family grifter Jared Kushner. Ossoff is Maddow's guest tonight. 🙌💪👏✊️👇
Nothing has turned me OFF to the actions of Israel more than the talking heads trying to defend the actions of Israel.
Their constant lies, false equivalencies, gaslighting, intellectual gamesmanship, BLATANT RACISM, callous disregard for human life that isn’t Jewish, the more they talk, the less
Spanberger just signed 972 bills into law in 30 days — including protections against Trump’s ICE goons. Eastman got disbarred. NYC is coming for the oligarchs.
The resistance is DELIVERING.
Let’s ruin their Monday 🔥 share everywhere!
This isn’t an academic threat to democracy, social inclusion and genuinely liberal values where people are all valued equally. It is a clear and present fascist program attached to a military political project that stifles dissent at home and kills “adversaries” abroad.
The Australian Greens are calling on the government to audit every Palantir contract across Government and particularly in Defence, Home Affairs and intelligence agencies and table the findings in Parliament. The public has a right to know the full scale of the risks and the sell out.
Don’t forget we just gave them top secret clearance
Palantir is embedding itself in other Australian institutions from Coles, to Rio Tinto. Westpac, our military cyber unit, the Australian Signals Directorate, the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission and AUSTRAC, which handles Aussies’ sensitive financial information.
Palantir has contracts across Australian defence & intelligence. Their CEO is pushing a "clash of civilisations" AI war doctrine, mass conscription and protecting elites. Australia cannot have an independent defence or foreign policy when our military is built on this platform.
Defence has handed Palantir more than $26 million in contracts since 2013, including a $7.6m deal awarded without competitive tender to its Cyber Warfare Division. Palantir staff are embedded in Defence. How the hell did Labor let these wolves inside?
Palantir is a cancer we should be cutting out of our Government agencies and institutions. Instead the Albanese Government and big corporations here are keen to use their mass surveillance and deeply unethical business practices for their own ends, regardless of the dangers.
Palantir is known to have provided technology that facilitated the Gaza genocide. They are facilitating mass ICE kidnappings in the US. These actions alone should trigger a review of Australian contracts. This latest manifesto only adds to the concern.
I’m swinging to Green because they at least have policies I can name if I disagree with direction. But they have to have good candidates. And they struggle in regional areas. But we also have to think outside our own electorates. I doubt I can do much here except protest vote.
"So let’s take the hint. Let’s talk about AUKUS. Let’s talk about why every single Australian with a pulse and a pay packet should be screaming at the government to pull the ripcord on this thing before it becomes the most expensive lemon in the history of the country."
A short 3min video by Al Jazeera journalist Zeina Khodr reports on Israel's crimes in southern Lebanon. Shameful that our AUS Govt does not condemn this. Appalling that our Australian mainstream news media refuses to report it in detail. #auspol #IsraeliTerrorism #LebanonUnderAttack

“It’s amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.”
- Harry Truman
As Trump proves often, the reverse of this is also true.
It’s amazing how much you can fuck things up when the only thing you care about is getting the credit.
😡😡😡

Palantir's CEO published a manifesto arguing Western tech firms have a "moral debt" to US military dominance, that AI weapons are inevitable, and that "some cultures are dysfunctional." This isn't just a regularly evil tech or defence contractor, it’s a fascist political project.
The whole of Palantir’s manifesto is dystopian, but this is really chilling; “The question is not whether AI weapons will be built; it is who will build them and for what purpose.” They have a plan to build AI weapons to kill what we hold precious, we need a plan to stop them.
No
Is this really the city that any of us want?
A city of greedy towers - the most unaffordable & antisocial of #sydneyapartmentbuildings, casting their shadows, concentrating congestion, so expensive to build & maintain.
This a city of unearned uplift, no public dividend, just speculative profit
Before they were arrested- Vets are demanding an end to the war on Iran at the Cannon Building in Washington, D.C.
Trump and his sons have enriched themselves by over 4 Billion dollars since he came into office
This is by FAR the most corrupt administration ever
Inviting Trump to speak at the White House Correspondents Dinner is like inviting a food critic who only reviews arson.
