A DoorDash driver did not pose a threat when we was shot in the back by ICE goons. They then refused to render aid and so a local police officer had to intervene and find the bullet hole. The bullet is still in his back after a day & they didn't give him medication for the pain. Sadistic monsters.
ICE Shot a DoorDash Driver in the Back in Austin
Rather than getting him medical help, they carted him off to an ICE detention complex—and the bullet is still in his back.

Rev. Erin J. Walter: “I will say it in the language of faith. ICE is an evil institution.” Powerful words in Austin, Texas, after an ICE officer shot and wounded Wilber Garces Perez on Sunday. #SheShed
This 100% 🇺🇸 Nothing he does makes sense unless you look at it from Putin’s perspective of dismantling our democracy. Who exactly is winning here?
What does a sniper position at Memorial Circle actually defend against? Not China. Not a submarine. Not a missile. It overlooks a bridge, a traffic circle, and the front door of the National Mall. Those are places where Americans march. www.jackhopkinsnow.com
The press ban is real and it's illegal and three newsrooms have lawyers on it already. The story that will actually cost votes ran on the AP wire this morning and vanished by lunch. www.jackhopkinsnow.com
Yes. Appeasement never ever works with authoritarians. Ever. News orgs have let him walk all over them for far too long. Stand up to this shit and stop covering him. It’s not rocket science. He loves attention. Stop giving it to him.
Curious as to what you think. Should all the journalists walk out and stop covering the White House? That would leave all the right wing nuts there, and I think it would be what Trump wants. But what kind of coverage can he get if the majors aren't there? Regardless, everyone should sue. Thoughts?
If you’re near LA, the Bay Area, or New York City, join a rally to demand our leaders stand strong against a Paramount-Warner Brothers merger. Oakland: www.mobilize.us/notabovethel... NYC: www.mobilize.us/notabovethel... LA: www.mobilize.us/notabovethel...
This ‘deal’ would be an insult to the hundreds of thousands of workers, journalists, and consumers who will be hurt if the Paramount-Warner Brothers merger goes forward. An agreement based only on unenforceable concessions is a win for David Ellison and a loss for everyone else.
Paramount-California settlement talks accelerate, moving Warner Bros. merger closer to the finish line
A resolution would allow David Ellison's $111-billion takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery to finalize

When we reclaim our country from the fascists, we must prosecute the war crimes and punish the military officers who committed them & followed illegal orders. This includes the murders on the boats in the Caribbean. Shameful. truthout.org/articles/un-... #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
Go to mobilize.us to volunteer, because we are literally in an emergency situation where we have got to put everything. We have into volunteering for democratic candidates, or things will get far, far worse. Grassrootsdems.org is an org that I also love to volunteer with. #StopTrumpCorruption
Thread. This is more terrifying shit that we don’t really want to know about, but since it’s actually happening maybe we should pay attention. These are truly sociopathic villains.
First, Trump takes “steps to chip away at American Bar Association's power to accredit law schools” Now, the “university” founded by Bari Weiss & Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale is building the “future of legal education, w/ support from the Federalist Society” but without ABA accreditation. 1/
The NY Times is in “but her emails” mode regarding Abdul El-Sayed and Hasan Piker. Relentless and unfair. Where’s the big story about a Republican megadonor who is a white supremacist? Maybe NYT has heard of him. His name‘s Elon Musk.
Whether it's the use of data to track patients traveling for reproductive care or its abuse by ICE officials to conduct searches without warrants, the improper use of Flock camera data is dangerous and creating an uproar.
This! 👇 Hey, my fellow Texan’s! We should ALL vote for Talarico and sue the heinous Republican Party for fraudulent advertising! Every anti ad about Talarico is a LIE! And, I can prove it! #Voices4Victory #DV1 #Pinks #SheShed
Have y’all seen these AI deepfakes they’re making of me? They don’t have any real attacks, so they’re firing up their data centers and making up fake ones. I don’t need to use deepfakes. The truth about Ken Paxton is bad enough.
When the public finally learns the full accounting of the damage done in this war, it’ll probably be too late to hold anyone in the Trump administration accountable. But this is insane. And they’re lying to the American people.
CBS News Exclusive: New photos reveal widespread damage at multiple U.S. positions across the Middle East caused by Iranian attacks.

Isn’t this fun to watch? I hope he LOSES, because guess what? He’s a fuckin LOSER.

Millions of us will be gathering on October 17 for No Kings: Vote Early not just to send a message, but to wield our power. Let’s turn out in historic numbers for the early vote and make our democracy undeniable. Join us!
No Kings
For more than a year, millions of people have come together to send a clear message: in America, we have no kings. Power doesn't belong to billionaires, strongmen, or politicians who think they're abo...

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.
Thread. This is suppression of speech. Yes, Kraft “owns” the stadium, so it isn’t technically public property—but it is a fascist move by someone whose money matters more than anything else. Kraft did this because he could. That asshole. And Ed Sheeran caved. Disappointing.
Macklemore has put out an incredible statement about being removed from Ed Sheeran’s tour. His removal was engineered by Trump’s bestie Robert Kraft, the owner of the Patriots and Foxborough stadium who rallied other owners to silence Macklemore for speaking out about Palestine.
Glad folks are appalled by photos of the "phone booth" cage under an awning, but pls understand: This IG report is likely part of a cover-up. Amnesty Int'l interviewed detainees EIGHT MONTHS AGO who said the cage was half this size (couldn't stand up), had no awning, w feet chained to the bottom.

Skynet, Skynet, Skynet, Skynet, Skynet, Skynet. How STUPID can we be?
If Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, and Elon Musk all agree that we have to slow down - and now - something serious clearly happened with a frontier AI model. Journalists should be digging in to this. We aren’t getting the whole story here.
I'm serious when I say I've lost track of all the recent revelations of literal Nazis working in high-level positions in Republican congressional campaigns and I would very much appreciate a journalist who took the time to detail as many of them as can fit into an article.
Ossoff: "Then there's the ex-staffer posting swastikas and Klan regalia. And the neo-Nazi with a million followers who produces neo-Nazi propaganda at Collins's house ... a man who won't take responsibility for what happens under his own roof can't be trusted with our national affairs."
