Happening now: several hundred people are pouring into Chicago's downtown Federal Plaza.

It's 25 degrees outside.

Organizers are leading the crowd in a chant of, "no boots on the ground, no bombs in the air!"

Two protesters hold a large banner reading, "no war for Venezuela oil."

Swalwell: He couldn't run a casino, and now he's going to run a country in South America while he fails to run a country in North America?

This is how you do it. No preamble to swear to God you don't like Maduro.

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.

That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

@velshi.com A lot of women basically work for benefits only (healthcare, 401(k), other benefits) plus the opportunity to stay on a career track and higher salary later. Childcare is expensive but it's only needed for a certain number of years.

@stephruhle.bsky.social Why don't you talk about the real issue with employment which is off shoring white collar jobs? Even executive assistant positions are being offshored. Tasks in the legal and accounting fields that technically require US licenses are being done by offshore workers.

The Founding Fathers had a moral code and a sense of honor and what it meant to be a gentleman that is almost non existent today. They took dignity, honor, faith and oaths very seriously and most people today do not. To people like Trump and his sycophants those concepts are for suckers and losers.

In light of today’s news I’d like to remind you that this is a real newspaper clipping. History repeats itself when we don’t stop it.

#BeginningOfTheEnd I've been saying for years the day #Trump takes on #Murdoch is the day Trump starts going down.

If #Noem and #Trump are really about promoting legal immigration they wouldn't be arresting and deporting people who are doing the right thing showing up for their legal immigration hearings.

Parents standing over articles of incorporation in a car seat happily, while a baby lies on the ground.

SCOTUS Conservatives: We're not worried if babies born to immigrant parents are really 'people'.

Also SCOTUS Conservatives: Corporations are people and they can buy elections.

The media must stop using this photo of Adriana Smith from her first pregnancy.

She was much further along in this photo than she was when declared brain dead.

She was only 9 weeks when she died.

This photo choice seems to be an attempt to make the medical experiment more “palatable”

Instead of reading Liz Bruenig's sociopathic nonsense, read my piece about Adriana Smith. bsky.app/profile/angr...

Writing about Adriana Smith with such callousness and disregard while ignoring the obvious connection to breeding slavery sounds about white.

Adriana Smith did not give birth to a baby.

She was used as an incubator, cut open, and a baby was taken out of her lifeless body.

A Black woman was used as a science experiment.

Sayed Naser served as a U.S. military interpreter in Afghanistan. Now he’s being deported.

The Taliban assassinated his brother and kidnapped his father. All because he helped us.

Why are the feds trying to deport him, even though his asylum case is still pending?

Not justice, it’s a betrayal.

That's what I do, I don't assume anything in fiction is true. It's the mark of a good author when they don't veer away too much from the actual historical facts.

I don't think this is correct. A type of cavalry, which basically means fighters from horseback, was known to be used for thousands of years BCE both in Europe and Asia. The stirrup seems to have been invented around the 3rd century in Asia and wasn't used in Europe until about the 7th century.

Calvary is the hill where Jesus was crucified.

When reading fiction you have to remember to take everything with a grain of salt. Never take as fact something you read about in a work of fiction. There are many times I've looked up something I read in a work of fiction to find out it was fact, and many times where I've found out it was not.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

ICE agents concealing their faces: Can they really do that? It's not illegal, but paired with high-visibility raids, police masking sows fear and conflict.

ICE agents concealing their faces: Can they really do that?

The 6 Mitford Sisters, Their Jewelry and a New TV Series www.nytimes.com/2025/05/20/f.... I hope this series shows them to be the vile creatures most of them were. Or are they now romanticizing Nazis and fascists? #ANTIFA #NAZI #KeepItReal #RealHistory #TellTheTruth
